Rick Wright was a critical element of the unique sound of Pink Floyd. He never showboated as a keyboardist (think Rick Wakeman, Jordan Ruddess, Keith Emerson, et al) but his compositional contributions are many. As a keyboardist myself, I try to blend into the mix as well as Rick did. Most of the time, you are not really conscious of his playing, but take it away and you no longer have Pink Floyd. RIP Rick.

This comment might be lost in the sea of time, but I remember hearing this song for the first time, and it was this version. At the time I was going through a bad breakup, and I'd gotten really sick with something and ended up in the ER. I was listening to it while waiting for the doctors to complete their workup... it really catches that vibe of just being completely divorced from yourself mentally and physically and then they give you something to "help you ease the pain, get you on your feet again." I can still smell the antiseptic if i close my eyes.

Some 59 years ago (I was 4 years old), I was seriously ill after contracting measles. My temperature was dangerously high, and I remember lying in bed looking up at a beautiful, huge tree, filled with millions of pink blossom petals. I reached up and began picking at the blossom, but it felt as if I was wearing boxing gloves. Fast forward 14 years or so to when I first heard this track, and I instantly connected, and to this very day, if I close my eyes and concentrate, I can relive that feeling in both my hands. Maybe a mental scar? Who knows. But this version of this song was as if it were performed by the music Gods themselves. Mindblowing.

It's interesting to see how people have encountered this song over the years. When this album (The Wall) came out in 79 you put the needle on the vinyl and you listened straight through. The album is all one piece. Listening to this one movement outside the work is like listening to one symphonic movement outside the work. Then in 82 the movie came out and would be played in local movie theaters at midnight every weekend as this really cool social experience much like Rocky Horror Picture show. This particular track gained popularity as a single eventually and now has a life of its own, but when the work was released, it was just one brick in the Wall. If you like this song, you should either listen to the album in one sitting, or watch the movie, which is just a playing of the album overlaid with psychedelic artwork and video vignettes. For the time, it was, and still is an incredible sensory treat.

I can add something, if I may, as I am old enough - and such a huge fan of 'The Floyd' - to know the history and sentiment behind this truly legendary piece. In the early days of Pink Floyd there was a member: Sid Barrett. This extraordinary guy wrote a lot of the lyrics for their earlier tracks. However, as legend seems to suggest, Sid vanished into a world of drugs and alcohol. The remaining band members were very busy developing their style (with Sid) and, at some point, had to make the decision to shut-up-shop and call it a day ... or press on Sid-less. They chose the latter strategy. However, Sid was such a creative force within the band and so loved by his peers that they wrote this song as a tribute to Sid. The lyrics broadly speak of Sid's genius and off-the-scale creativity (partly loosened-up by substances known only characters like Sid Barrett). Comfortably Numb describes Sid's journey into an internal, emotional wasteland and how people 'outside Sid' were trying to call to him ... to draw him back from his foggy world, back to the band and to rejoin his adoring colleagues. The track is from a concept album which chronicles the life of a famous, but severely lost performing artist and song writer named: "Pink" (mythical stage name), and that character is modeled on Sid Barrett. The track really has to be heard in the full context of the legendary Floyd album: "The Wall" (brace yourself: it's light, airy, exciting, insightful and very, very dark, ..., emotional and terrifying all in one long story-telling compilation). If you have the time and inclination: 1. Listen to the album: The Wall (really listen to the lyrics with analysis). Listen JUST ONCE. 2. Watch the movie (you may have to watch it more than once, as it's busy and emotionally complex). 3. Come back and redo your video on Comfortably Numb. I can assure you; you won't regret one moment of it. That, dear Ms. Charismatic Voice, is the only way one can do justice to the legendary track: Comfortably Numb. While I have your attention ... I love your work on this channel - you really are charismatic and a joy to engage with. Keep up this great work. Best Wishes, GinoX 😊

Syd Barrett actually descended into schizophrenia, probably fueled by the drugs and alcohol, and was institutionalized for most of his later life. Roger Waters, who was very close to Syd, suspected that he was encouraged in his substance abuse in order to keep him performing. Hence the lyric "Can you stand up? I do believe it's working, good. That'll keep you going through the show. Come on it's time to go."

Remember, he wrote the song later in life. It's not all about one event. The events I know about are a fever as a child and when he was sick on tour, so they dope him up with something, so he can make it through the show. He claimed whatever they gave him made him feel nothing. The song is broken up by two guitar solos, both on the list of top 100 guitar solos of the millennium.(yes, one song made the list twice). The first goes with the smooth, going with the flow feel of the song. The second is after the line, “The child is grown. The dream is gone. I have become comfortably numb.” It is angry. This is not how things were supposed to be. This is not the dream.

I'd still love to know what Elizabeth makes of the performance, because I think her jaw would hit the desk, but without a video record, she's not going to be able to run through her checks on whether there's visible neck relaxation, what the jaw placement looks like and that sort of thing.

@@SeanCleverly Not quite. I can think of a number of Floyd lyrics that surpass this. RUSH lyrics are superlative. Jethro Tull. Iron Maiden. There are many, many lines from many songs that are superior. The entire songs Time or Eclipse/Brain Damage from Dark Side of the Moon are better. Most of The Wall, Shine on you Crazy, Animals, the whole album. Two Suns in the Sunset. However, as it subjective, I can see the appeal. It is a good song, and a great line. However, I do think that "And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear You shout and no one seems to hear And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes I'll see you on the dark side of the moon" was Floyd's penultimate moment.

Literally one of the greatest, if not the greatest, guitar solos of all time. David Gilmour is so talented and plays in a way that sounds impressive yet effortless all at the same time. So melodic and emotional, and he makes it look so easy. And his voice is like buttah. I could listen to him sing the phone book.

That "smooth singing" guitar virtuoso was David Gilmour. Roger Waters had split with the band at that point already and Sid Barret had been gone for a couple of decades. In my humble opinion, the Waters/Gilmour combination of Floyd in the 70s was the best Floyd. The Smooth Gilmour contrasted by the Anxiety of Waters was the perfect bi-polar relationship in life as it was in their music. The tug of war between the two very different personalities translated to the most timeless and brilliant music ever known. Pink Floyd is one of the few bands that should ideally be listened to in full albums. Do yourself the favour of having all of the lyrics on hand and listen to albums like the Wall, Animals, Dark Side of the Moon, Meddle or Wish You Were Here in their entirety.

As others have said, The Wall is a rock opera. It's a full story from start to finish. Comfortably Numb is the turning point for the main character, a rock star named Pink. After a life of hardship, abuse, and troubled relationships, he suffers a mental break while on tour and mentally shuts down (goes catatonic) while in his room. His manager and doctors break into the room and try to get him back on his feet before the show, and ply him with drugs (probably stimulants) that will get him through the night ("Okay, just a little pinprick"), which he equates to being treated for a fever as a child. Unfortunately the treatment does not go well, leading to the next act of the story where Pink slips further into outright delusion, twisting the one thing he had left, his music into something monstrous, and finally shutting himself off from the rest of the world with the completion of The Wall. That gospel-like "AAAAAAHHHHH" that came in on the second verse is a scream, not necessarily of pain, but of emotional anguish. "There'll be no more AAAAAAAAHHHHHH, but you may feel a little sick." That time distortion is the exact feeling that they were going for. It's not about drugs, though. It's about breaking with reality as everything you've tried to hold onto comes crashing down around you.

AMEN!

I also have a moment where "Comfortably Numb" started playing in a car. I was driving to work, to a job I had been in for 8-9 years at the time. Dissatisfied, unhappy over crappy pay and crappy conditions and not seeing any reasonable path for upward mobility until people retired or died. Going in day after day, little to be proud of, just getting by. Weary from solving the same problems day to day, week to week. Just maintaining, not improving. When the line came up "When I was a child / I caught a fleeting glimpse / Out of the corner of my eye / I turned to look but it was gone / I cannot put my finger on it now / The child is grown / The dream is gone" it shot me straight through heart. Lump in the throat, misty eyes, maybe a tear or two dropping... it wasn't dissatisfaction. It was depression. It was a dead end. It was time to move on.

Genius reaction and commentary!

David Gilmore has two amazing voices, the one he sings from his mouth, and the one he sings from his guitar. No one makes a guitar sing like he does.

The song "Time" will rock your world.

I've heard this version of Comfortably Numb hundreds of time and still I continue tearing out at the end of the guitar solo. It's so pure, so emotional, so deep! Once I've heard a joke about this: "One day my neighboor called the police because I was listening to Comfortably Numb too loud. The police came and arrested my neighboor" 🤣 Anyway thank you to share your point of view and we all agree that this song will remain in our heart forever. ❤

Just one word more: MASTERPIECE.

This piece is music will carry across the centuries.

There are basically three layers of Waters' writing on this song: most directly, it's about an experience that Waters had before a concert in Philadelphia in 1977 where a doctor was called to give him tranquilizer shots for extreme abdominal pain so he could go on with the show. Turns out he had hepatitis. He compares it to a feeling he had as a child wherein he was extremely sick. But he's taken these experiences and filtered them through the personality of Pink, who is the central character of "The Wall" album. For Pink, the song acts as a kind of confessional (in the chorus sections). You have The Doctor singing the darker verse sections, and Pink, singing internally, and confessionally in the choruses, ultimately unable to communicate. This is why, for instance, you have the "bright" guitar solo in the middle of the song in the key of D and the "dark" solo at the end in the key of E-minor. The bright solo is representative of a kind of hopefulness in Pink, that, by the end of the song, completely erodes.

Here's what amazes me- For many, many years I have considered the guitar solo from the studio version of this song one of the best of all time. I felt the pain and torment, but also the ecstasy of the protagonist in this piece. It's like it represents the escape , and also the reasons for a need to escape, all at the same time. And yet, for this performance Gilmour chose to take it in a new direction which added so much emotional depth. Kudos to David Gilmour for being able to put himself through a whole new emotional catharsis for this performance. So, so much respect...

One doesn't merely listen to Pink Floyd, One experiences them!

When I hear the words "perfect guitar solo" this is the first song that comes to mind. Simple, clean, but transcendent.

I was 10 years old when I first heard Comfortably Numb and 44 years later nothing else comes close.

The tour used two stages that leap frogged throughout the tour. The stage took 3 days to assemble and took a whole construction crew (welders, riggers, etc.). The lighting included four 11 KW search lights. Pink Floyd created a company, Whole Hog, that developed the lighting controls.

I used to get into arguements with a friend that was an Eddie VanHalen fan about who had the better solos, and he always wanted to point out the technical aspects and speed of the solos that Eddie did, to which I would always come back with, yeah it's great and on a level that only a handful in the world could match, but....did you feel it in your soul?

"These guys" during the verse in this case are Rick Wright (older guy on keys), Jon Carin (younger guy on keys), Guy Pratt (bass). Rick is a forming member, now deceased. Carin and Pratt played with Floyd since the mid-80's, and both continue to play on Gilmour and Floyd-related projects. You will also hear the female backing vocalists in various bits during the verses Sam Brown, Durga McBroom, and the late Claudia Fontaine. The lead vocal in the chorus and lead guitar is David Gilmour who has been with the band since the late 60's. Roger Waters was a founding member who played with Pink Floyd until the early 80's and then only made one subsequent appearance with the band, once at Live 8 in London, although Gilmour and founding member Nick Mason (drummer) joined him for one of his Wall tour dates, and Gilmour and Waters appeared for some charity stuff together before finally going their separate ways.
