Wow, it fucked you up so bad that you support Man Utd! Mind altering stuff!

"I can't image what the energy must have been like actually being there..." Well, let me tell you. I was in the audience for Pink Floyd The Wall on the 8th of February 1980 in Los Angeles. I was 14 at the time. I was not suppose to be there. This was when Pink Floyd was at the height of their Glory and showmanship. It was a stunning performance and to this day one of the greatest non-family related experiences in my life. The band was still together back then and Gilmour, Mason and Waters were hitting on all cylinders. They spent hours spinning a story web with their music with a set design like no other seen for a rock group until then. When they played "Comfortably Numb", David Gilmour stepped back into the shadows and the next time we saw him, he was standing on TOP of the Wall set on a little platform. The stadium went dark and there was a single spot light that lit him up. That's where he played his solo from. You see them pay homage to that bit of history in the video you guys reacted to. Toward the end of the second solo, at about 10:30 in your video, they go down to just he single spot light on David, just like in LA 40 years ago. At 14 years old, probably a little messed up from a contact high, and freaking out about what my mother would say if she knew where I was, that on moment cemented my love of Rock 'n' Roll. The power of all those people in one spot on the planet, all there doing ONE thing (watching a master ply his craft) was magical. I'm saddened that my son may never see the likes of it in his lifetime. There are some amazing bands out there, but (with the exception of Van Halen) I've never seen one live that can rival the energy that flowed out of Pink Floyd and their fans that night. It was life changing.

I caught them in Little Rock, Arkansas on October 31, 1981. My 18th birthday. I grew up 3 hours west and my mom knew that Floyd was one of my favorite bands. When she found out about the show she bought 2 tickets for me and the girl I was dating. (She got together with the girl's parents and they all knew everything.) She gave me a birthday card that morning and told me I needed to call the girl before I opened the card. So, I called the girl and she said she wanted us to take a weekend road trip to Little Rock to go shopping as a specific store the next morning. She also told me that I was not allowed to open the card until we got to the big new shopping mall in Little Rock. It just turns out that the new mall was directly across the street from the arena. Only then was I allowed to open the envelope. When I pulled those tickets out of that card..... And I saw the date and location..... OH MY GAWD!!!!! That has to be just about the best birthday present I've ever heard of, and it was MINE!!! I've seen a lot of good shows in my life, but I don't think any have, or will ever top that one.

David together with the Strat are ONE INSTRUMENT. Gilmour’s guitar is nothing without him, but with the touch of the master’s hand it produces colors and feelings seen and felt no where else in the world of art and music. David Gilmour and his guitar are indeed a gift of God to mankind. Long live the Master and King of the Stratocaster 🎸 Thank you David for all the years and all the emotion evoking masterpieces of melody and music that you’ve given us. There will never be another like you. -Randall

And yes, after 43 years this song still gets me, gives me chills. THAT’S the definition of classic rock. Syd Barrett was the heart and soul of Pink Floyd when they formed. There are different stories about why he left: mental health, addiction… I just recently watched a video where they claimed he simply just wasn’t interested in being a rock star and all the trappings of success. I think I’ll subscribe to that version :-) He certainly was a complex individual.

I was 13 when my dad took me to that show. Still the greatest show I’ve ever seen. Changed everything.

Roger Waters wrote the lyrics. While many people thought the song was about drugs, Waters claims it is not. The lyrics are about what he felt like as a child when he was sick with a fever. As an adult, he got that feeling again sometimes, entering a state of delirium, where he felt detached from reality.

When I was a child I had my tonsils out. They gave me ether. They put a cloth over your nose and mouth and drip the liquid onto it. Strangest experience ever. Saw ships with smoking stacks on the far horizon just like he describes. The atmosphere was full of static and there was a stench. Getting high on ether does NOT work. I was only 4, but I remember that perfectly.

You have to listen to the whole album, The Wall. Pink Floyd was an album maker. Every album was written to be listened to in succession. Listen to their music. Every album tells a story. Great job guys!

I remember that the music of that time was our medium of communications just like the internet is today. We listened to the album. Read the lyrics on the jacket. And tried to make sense of an insane world. But we knew we didn't want anybody telling us what to do and how to think. It was magical. But really only for a very short time. This the current generation hasn't got a grip on thinking for themselves yet. Pink Floyd was too grown up for me. I was a stones, doors, and jimi fan.

Nothing better than seeing a good dad bring their child into the know of classic great music! Great job Dad and Daughter!!

A Pink Floyd concert is an experience, not just a show. These guys are in the upper echelon of the best of the best.

" This is the kind of music that you can feel into your bones". You go girl!

Folks, listen to the lyrics again!! "The child is grown, the dream is gone and I've become comfortably numb." That deals with far more than only a drug-induced worldview. I can't tell you how many adults I've known who, when they were younger, had aspirations (dreams) about what they could accomplish in life. Then later, even years later, they had given up on those high hopes and settled, instead, for being another cog in the machine. So "Have a Cigar" and "Welcome to the Machine," that kind of thing. Metal Dad, I thought you would have known this!! Their commentary on this aspect of life was preceded by "Us and Them" along with "Time" on DARK SIDE OF THE MOON and by "High Hopes" on THE DIVISION BELL, among others. How fortunate us Pink Floyd fans are that they were not content with instrumentals only, which are extraordinary. They also made sure that some of their lyrics made us think... at least those willing to. As the poet Ian Anderson said in Thick as a Brick... "I may make you feel, but I cant't make you think." Feeling (using emotion only) is child's play. Thinking is another journey altogether. Thanks for posting!!!

Also, why don't you let your daughter respond to the song, rather than forcing it down her throat. Look at her reactions....she's bored sick with this schtick.

I think the moment David started singing and watching her melt into his voice was priceless.

When THE guitar solo (the GOAT solo!!) starts, you can tell the Metal Dad knows what is coming. But I love the Rap Teen's comment during the first solo. This IS music you can feel in your bones. But it also moves your soul and makes your heart weep with joy.

"This is the kind of music you feel moving though your bones." Although so many have said these exact words, no words are ever truer, and glad to see your bones will never be the same as you can not take that feeling out. Nice Reaction!!

I was at this actual gig! (even though it ran for 2 weeks at Earl's Court) As we walked up the stairs there was signs up telling us the show was being filmed by BBC. Two weeks later it was aired on BBC2. I took my wife to it and it's been the best gig of my life and I've been to many gigs.

If your daughter were not being recorded she would have had her eyes closed for 95% of this video. Love how ya both enjoyed this song. I introduced my children early on in their lives to Pink Floyd. Thanks for sharing folks.

The lyrics were inspired by Waters's experience of being injected with tranquilizers for stomach cramps before a Pink Floyd show in Philadelphia on the 1977 In the Flesh Tour.[6][7] "That was the longest two hours of my life," Waters said, "trying to do a show when you can hardly lift your arm." The song had the working title "The Doctor"

@@mikewagner7041 Lots of articles and web pages out there about song meanings. Gilmour wrote the music for his solo album and brought it to Floyd when they were working on the wall. The first verse is Waters remembering a time in his childhood when he had the flu and the feeling of delirium he had. Then later before the show in Philadelphia, he was sick and what warren elkins says above is the 2nd verse, "Now I've got that feeling once again, I can't explain, you would not understand, this is not how I am." Reference to having that same feeling as a child when he was delirious with the flu. It transforms perfectly in the scene in the movie The Wall when pink is wacked out on drugs. The movie which came is why there is misinterpretation of the song being about drugs.

@@mrodg88 ive seen the wall multiple times love it. I guess I took a different interpretation of the movie and the lyrics. Sometimes can be difficult to find the real reason behind a song because people think different things. Thank you for the info though now more to think about.

Pink Floyd’s writing, arrangements, creativity, vocals, instrumental and technical capabilities combined to make this album, “Dark Side of the Moon” a masterpiece of rock music. Every song on the album is one continuous story about former band member, Sid Gilmore’s decent into madness. Sid was clinically diagnosed as being insane. The song Comfortably Numb is a master piece and David Gilmore’s solos in this song are regarded as being unequaled in the history of rock music. Pink Floyd was far ahead of their time. Their music is timeless and it is just as relevant today as it was in their early years. Back in the seventies it took fifteen semis to haul all of Pink Floyds gear to a concert. It got to the point that their show grew so much that they only played at a handful of venues. Pink Floyd was not a rock show. It was an experience.

Such a sight, you two - You are so sweet together, and to see your impressions and opinions mingle, break and elevate, without battling for rank, is so fun and life confirming. I am smiling here - Thx!

Feels the music moving through her bones... Oh yeah, she gets it!

It was a mesmerizing experience being there, I was standing up and my legs began to wobble and I had to sit down, David Gilmour literally knocked me down

David Gilmore plugs his guitar into his soul and touches heaven.

She looked like she was being out into a trance. Which is totally understandable as David Gilmore's guitar playing is second to none.

Five years later nothing has changed she still loves Pink Floyd...( 😳!) Hilarious, beautiful and incredible to every one who sees this!!

The whole song is simply magnificent, and listening to the second solo I can only describe as a spiritual experience.

Pink Floyd- Time (lyric video) Such an amazing song, it hits harder as you get older.

It's so refreshing to see someone like her, being a "rap teen", close her eyes and actually feel the music. This is what music was meant to be, felt and heard at the same time.

Dad looks like he's having a happy flashback.... Lovely watching dad and daughter explore some of the greatest music of all time!! Fair play guys

Thank you so much for sharing this incredible masterpiece of music. I had the life changing moment on April 30, 1994 in Birmingham Alabama at Legion Field with over 70,000 in attendance to see this tour. Almost 26 years later and it is still emotional. Thank you so much!!

YES! PINK FLOYD always a legend. It's such a great song, David Gilmore guitar playing hits you hard. It's so emotional

The album The Wall was released in 1979.'Comfortably Numb' has been amazing for 40 years.

I, and I think everyone came for the Pink Floyd reaction. No one on this planet can resist goosebumps nor appreciate Pink Floyd enough. Not one person. Best guitar solo ever performed by Man. If God had to pass on his power and name, he'd give that place to David Gilmore.

Hey dad! I am so impressed that you are exposing your child(ren) to music that is not in the main stream play list. I have done the same and the results have been richly rewarding. Keep it up. Thumbs up. So proud of you.

David Gilmour know when not to play a note. Less is more. And this is the ultimate version. The David Gilmour solo version with Crosby and Nash and David Bowie from the Remember That Night is great too.

Yes it was amazing being there.. nothing will ever compare..

Wow, I can only imagine how incredible it would have been to be there in that concert. The way the halo turns into a massive spotlight for the solo, the giant disco ball, the incredible solo.....just, wow.

as many time as I watched this I don’t have enough tear for this particular one, every time I will wept out of joy, regret, jealousy and acceptance. This surely brought me to next level of musical dimension.

I wanted to say thank you, Juliette (hope I spelt that right) Your phrase "The kind of music you feel moving through your bones" Those are the words I've been looking for, to explain how I feel about music. At the start of lockdown, I did the 10 Album thing, the I went on and did 10 windband and orchestral peices and now im continuing with other music. I was tryingto explain how I feel when the music takes me over, that disconnected feel when its in yuour head and nothing else matters. Thank you

Very important song for me, I had a similar experience when i was 21 getting diagnosed with Type 1 with a 970 glucose level. Comfortably Numb helped me during that time i give it 200 Tomatoes.

Listening to Floyd on acid or shrooms is a completely different experience. But that's all in the past now. You really need to do a full album reaction to appreciate the true artistry. Just listening to One song from the middle of the album is like walking into the middle of a conversation, you miss so much of it.

I listened to Floyd for years before I actually understood that, and it wasn't until I watched The Wall whilst a little bit over the influence, that it really hit me, that everything they did flowed into everything else, then I went back and listened to every album again and had my mind blown and became a real fan.

Floyd popped on my page a few hours back been listening to them since then pure heaven

It's always fun to watch people discover something wonderful for the first time.
