The level of talent and thought that goes into those songs is unbelievable. I'm not saying today's music isn't good, but it is absolutely no rival to what music was in the 70s and 80s.

It blessed me to see someone so young so clearly touched, moved, swept away by one of the classics of my high school days: Watters and Gilmour and the phenomenon that is Pink Floyd. Gilmour in particular goes to the heart with the unique, soulful quality of his voice and his approach on the electric guitar. There have been and are many fantastic soloists on that instrument in rock and jazz. But no other guitarist I've ever heard--no one--can tell a story that tears my heart out like David Gilmour can.

David Gilmour and that black Strat together are the closest thing to heaven on this Earth

Wow... Feels so good to see someone of a younger generation experience Pink Floyd. You don't listen to Pink Floyd, you experience it. You feel it. That solo, and every rendition of it over the years has become not only the greatest guitar solo in the history of mankind, but also one of, if not - the - greatest pieces of music that has ever been penned. I hope you continue your journey with Pink Floyd. Each album is an unforgettable experience that everyone that has ever drawn breath should enjoy at least once. There are millions of good musicians. There are thousands of amazing bands and artists. There are hundreds of Hall of Fame worthy talents, but there is only one Pink Floyd. This is as close as you are going to get to dining with the Gods and partaking in their ambrosia. Happy New Year!

And this is how we know there is God, Heaven, and Angels... On the 8th day, He created Pink Floyd

It’s hard to believe that this song is already 40 years old. I remember it when it was released and I was a senior in high school. Pink Floyd has always been one of my favorite bands, primarily because they had such a unique way of writing and performing their songs. It was musical genius. The Animals, Dark Side of the Moon, and Wish You Were Here albums are forever engrained in my memory, but The Wall album produced arguably one of the best songs in my lifetime in Comfortably Numb and David Gilmour’s solo still hits me every time I hear it. I’m glad to hear you enjoyed it, Shannon.

I first heard this song as a kid in the early 80’s while sitting in the garage watching my Dad work on his Bike. I had tears in my eyes too.. Even at that age, I knew. I was Floyded early LOL

I have become a Gilmour disciple, no one evokes emotion from a guitar like he does I would take out a second mortgage to watch Pink Floyd in concert. I have listened to Comfortably numb over a 100 times and I still get goose bumps.

David Gilmour is one of the few guitarists that makes you feel it to your soul. A true master.

I could listen to this song over and over again! Best solo ever performed...the magic of David Gilmour!!!

Just before the 5 minute mark, it’s quite visible where you made the emotional connection in a big way. Feels awesome, doesn’t it? Not many groups can do this with a great deal of their music. Pink Floyd is one of those groups and I can confidently say that there will probably never be another group that will come together with such otherworldly musical chemistry. That first solo grabs people that are hearing Pink Floyd for first time right by the heart strings. David didn’t just play the guitar. Rather, he communicated the specific emotion he wanted you to feel and that communication is simply undeniable. Amazing actually. When you match the extraordinary composition with the lyrical poetry these folks assembled, then listen to that spiritual sounding guitar solo, it sends that emotional arrow deep every time. There is a very good reason solo #1 and #2 in this song are known to be 2 of the best of all time primarily for the reason that they elicit such an emotional response. 👍🏻😎👍🏻

And Yes.

I can talk all day about pink floyd however not enough is said about their background singers. Listen to Darkside of the moon and you'll hear what I mean.

Michael Radis yep, watch the special discussing the making of DSOTM, how it was produced, mixed, edited, cut and pasted, fade ins and out, the lyrical content and so on. How the songs flow from one to another, goddamn pure brilliance,

Especially the vocals on "The great gig in the sky" never gets old!

David Gimour top 5 guitarists of all time. So cool to see peoples reactions to his unique style. Literally 3rd person today brought to tears listening to Gilmours beautiful solos and voice. Truly a raw talent.

FYI: There's something about reaction pieces in KZread that are attractive. The main parts are the music and the comedy, but watching someone's reaction is also fun. I like watching your stuff because you don't overbalance it with your commentary. I often bail when the producers make it about them. Kudos to you for just rolling with the music and injecting yourself with grace and charm.

I appreciate you! I might just make my first reaction video in over a year with the help of this comment :) I’m but a teeny tiny stone in a magnificent sculpture or at least that’s what I hope to be.

The audience singing along with David Gilmore gave me goose bumps.

Oh how I wish I was there 🙌🏾

You should do the Pulse concert performance of this song it is just class.

I saw lots of people reacting on this song and you are the only one to apparently understand this music. Your real tears proove it ! You had 4 reactions : first when you heard the beginning atmosphere, second when you heard violins, third when you heard the first guitar solo and fourth when you heard the scream. I think this song talk to you like it talk to me 💚💚💚

In the 1994 Pulse concert, David Gilmour's solo of this song caused 7 women and 2 men to spontaneously become pregnant.

Hearing this again after a long break, it's so apparent that neither Gilmour nor Waters ever reached these heights again, once their collaborations ended. Such an emotional song can only come from the tearing synergy between these two ideologically and spiritually opposed creative minds. This song is a perfect example of what comes from such an antagonistic synergy. The dark lyrics combined with the soaring anger and defiance of the chorus and the guitar solo - well, this will probably never be equalled.

What a lovely woman it was a pleasure to watch you enjoy this masterpiece,your expressions are adorable.

Possibly the most gentle and genuine reaction video I’ve seen. Well done girl 👍🏼

Miss Hemmings, that was a beautiful reaction video to Pink Floyd's timeless classic Comfortably Numb. David Gilmour is a stellar guitarist, one of the all time great musicians. Your reactions to this brilliant performance was compelling and emotional. More Pink Floyd reaction videos would be most welcome 🙂

David Gilmore could elicit so much emotion and soul from his guitar that it leaves his audience in breathless amazement. Pink Floyd is a life altering experience. The vast majority of reactors have the same reaction that you did to Pink Floyd. I highly recommend that you listen to “The Great Gig In the Sky” from the Dark Side Of the Moon album. Actually that album is one continuous rock opera that tells the story of one of the founding members of the band, Sid Barrett. Sid suffered from a total psychological melt down and went insane.

Great reaction. You just witnessed the magic of David Gilmour, at age 70 :-) He's the only Pink Floyd member on stage, but it's one of the best versions he's ever played. For another epic Gilmour solo, check out "Pink Floyd - On The Turning Away (live)". Pick the 1988 version, uploaded by Miguel Freitas with 6.8M views.

@@ShannonHemmingsTV Yep, he's still got it. This was one of his last concerts to date, back in 2016, and I doubt he'll tour again. I envy you, you have an amazing journey ahead. Pink Floyd and Gilmour's solo work transport you to another world, they are truly unique. Some highlights: - The four classic albums: Dark Side Of The Moon (1973), Wish You Were Here (1975), Animals (1977), The Wall (1979). - The song Echoes (1971). - The Division Bell (1994) and the subsequent tour, released on the Pulse CD/DVD. - Gilmour's album On An Island (2006) and the tour, released on two DVDs: Remember That Night and Live In Gdansk. And lots and lots more. But start with On The Turning Away, it's an overlooked gem :)

Are You forgotting about one more Pink Floyd member? Gilmour was great but biggest songs was written by Roger Watters- and he is still on stage.

@@TheVicious83 No, I didn't forget Waters. The best songs were a collaboration of the whole band, even when Waters took most of the credit, and Gilmour was often the real driving force behind the music (Gilmour once said he wrote 90% of the music of Animals, despite getting only credit for Dogs). Waters was the ideas man, he usually came up with the general concepts, demos, and lyrics, but Gilmour was the most musically gifted, and he's essential to the 'Pink Floyd sound'. As for Waters live, it's just not the same.

Pulsar77 I can not agree. It was Waters who was the entire creative machine behind the Floyds. Gilmour brought in money. It is thanks to Waters that we have Wish You Were Here, Dark side of the moon and the overrated The Wall. The best proof of this is that Gilmour didn't create anything interesting (maybe except for the song Division Bell - the rest of the album is just very poor). Gilmour was and is a great musician. Waters is a better composer than a musician. And here's the problem.

Shannon, this is my favorite Pink Floyd Reaction :) I really wish and hope you would soon do more of them, This video has so many views now, i've watched it 4-5 times since you posted it. Bless you

This is the true example of the sound of emotion at its best.
