    Rodger didn't OD he was in incredible pain from hepatitis!! The doctor gave him a muscle relaxant / some kind of antibiotic and he said he couldn't move his arms during the 1977 concert in Philadelphia!! He was worried because he thought he was playing terribly but the audience was going crazy anyway. He also said it was the longest 3 hours of his life but since the audience it was loving it he became Comfortably Numb thus half the catalyst for the lyrics.

    • @lakelanddentalarts
      @lakelanddentalarts 7 дней назад +1

      Your comment and reply are true and it's exactly what Waters said during an interview about his personal experiences as an adult being medicated by a doctor to be able to play at a concert, and as a child when he had a high fever, that he brought into play when creating the lyrics for the song. The confusion about the drug-OD is because in the story that the album tells, Pink is self-medicating with drugs and a doctor has to revive him to be able to perform. It's after that when Pink begins his final descent into madness.

      I think I finally understand why this song has such power. I know the reported origin, and the guitar solo was sublime, but I’ve always had trouble connecting the story with the beauty of the solo. And here it is:
      While the writer (Roger) speaks of the numbness and disconnection from other people at that moment of his illness, his imagination is not numb at all, rather it is exploding! The beauty of the solo is the sudden power he has when freed of worries about other people, even his loved ones, for that brief time. It is the beauty of that imagination, this new, brief, but profound freedom has unlocked his spirit like he never felt before! It’s not that our earthly needs and caring and love for others are bad, rather that the core of us really can be beautiful _on its own._. I imagine that the fever in youth was a major source of inspiration for Roger’s great musical art in later years. Just my impression.
      Thank you two, you are such a sweet couple!

They are my two favorite classic bands, and that seems to be true for so many of my contemporaries.

      I somewhat agree, as I'm assuming I'm in your age range but having seen both groups live back in our day, and also saw this concert twice, Pink Floyd definitely wiped Zeppelin off the map. Saw Zeppelin in 70s and honestly, was quite disappointed. We came away thinking they were definitely a studio band only. Have since read they said was a very bad tour so they may have been having bad times, we all do. Pink Floyd was always perfection.

      @@detroitlady7201 unfortunately for me, Floyd’s reliability didn’t work. I saw them in Seattle in 1987 or 88 at The Kingdome. Horrible acoustics. And our seat was behind a pillar, if you can imagine. I was so disappointed. Certainly not Floyd’s fault. But I was so bummed by the experience that I didn’t take advantage of their 1994 tour, for which I kick myself to this day. I have it on DVD, but I wish I also had it in my memories. Probably because of that 30 year old mistake, I DID make a point of seeing U2 at The Sphere in Vegas, and I’m so glad I did!
      I also saw Zeppelin n Seattle in 1977….a tour which was in a very dark time for the band. We had to leave after 30 minutes because I was sick with a migraine (not the band’s fault 😏). But all I remember was that they were LOUD. Have no memory if they were good or not, but I do know that Jimmy was deep into addiction by then so they were really erratic. Zeppelin could soar, but because of all the improv they did, and Robert’s voice, they all had to be ON for that to happen…..and sometimes it turned sloppy. A great live band, but not a reliable one as time went on. Floyd was utterly reliable and professional . They simply couldn’t control the venue, and I got unlucky. Strangely, my husband remembers that concert much more positively than I do.

    So happy you understood the full power of that song. And that was not just "a" guitar solo, it was THE guitar solo. Pink Floyd doing Comfortably Numb at Pulse. Very little even comes close.
    A thought. Don't know if you guys know it, but touring is HARD. On the road for months at a time, living out of hotels, eating weird food. You don't always feel great. Everyone has off nights. (Often the audience can't completely tell, but these are human beings, not robots.) But every now and then there come these moments, when every single member on stage hits their groove, they are all perfectly in sync, and a performance goes beyond music and enters the realm of magic. This was one of those rare moments.

    She is spot on with her observations. The meaning of the song is so much more than the description about an overdose given at the beginning, and I interpret it in the same way she does. Not sure they were able to make out all the lyrics but there are some truly beautiful words sung that illicit all kinds of possible meanings. Would love it if they would re-react to the song on its own with no video, just the lyrics.
    As for the guitar solo, she hits it spot on again. Solos come in two different styles, one is the relatively short but blazing where the guitarist is quickly fingering the strings and moving along the fingerboard. The other is where the solo replaces the vocals, as so perfectly performed in this song.

    This was back when there were actual artists creating music.
    Pink Floyd would play multiple nights in large cities and sell out each show in just minutes. The crowds would be 60 to 70 thousand people every night.

    Great reaction to a stunning show. I was at that actual concert, the night they filmed it, 4 rows from the stage. It was the most mesmerising experience of my life. It was almost impossible to take it all in. I had to look behind me to see the spinning mirrored globe during this song. It's difficult to tell from this video just how massive the scale of the the stage and every else was. It was completely vast. Hard to believe it'll be 30 years ago this October!

    She describes it beautifully. I have exactly the same feeling, that the guitar conveys feelings like singing. Even though I'm not a fan of opera, the description of an opera singing is really apt.

    watching Carol get more emotional as the song progressed was making me emotional as well. I love how Pink Floyds guitar is another vocalist to the band. The guitar was definitely singing to my soul! Gawsh that was soooo good! I would also recommend the movie they made for this complete album The Wall! And if you brave enough take a few magic Mushrooms to enhance the cinematic experience! But dont record yourselves doing that lol haha Enjoy that was for just you two alone! Eli your English is getting a lot better it seems like? There was a few times I didnt even notice an accent! You guys are ready for the States! And In the meantime stay safe over there please! Its getting scary in your part of the world I pray for you and all your loved ones safety!! God Bless!

    Hi guys. I was at the concert the day they recorded that video. It's something I will never forget. I have to say, it took me a little while to get into Pink Floyd, when I was younger, but something happens to me/you after a while, and you get a kind of connection with their music, and appreciate how talented and original they were. Also, I seem to keep changing my mind as to which album I like most. I think it depends on what is happening in your life at the time, or maybe that's just me?! Reacting to Pink Floyd is not easy, if you've not heard much of their music or don't know the background of them. But I really enjoyed Carol's reaction, because to me it seemed truly honest, and I appreciate that. David Gilmore can make a guitar reach deep emotions, and I could tell it got inside you, Carol. It's great that you appreciate talented musician's. I have many suggestions of great music for you two, not just PF . I have subscribed to your channel and look forward to watching you react to more great songs and bands. All the best and regards, Richard in Spain.

    As others have said, Roger didn't OD, he was diagnosed with hepatitis one night before a show. But while Waters did make use of the experience to craft the lyrics for this song, that's not what the song means as part of the story of "The Wall".
    "The Wall" is Pink Floyd's concept double-album (four of their greatest records were concept albums). This one tells the story of a fictional young boy named Pink, who wants to grow up and become a rock star. Over the course of the four sides we see Pink grow and achieve his dream. But he's continually hurt by people around him ~ his mother, his teachers, his girlfriend. So he starts building emotional walls to protect himself from being further hurt - hence, the album title.
    "Comfortably Numb" is the last song on side three, and it's at this point that Pink has come to understand that there's nobody left in his life who cares about him, or in whom he can trust. He's surrounded himself with yes-men and sycophants. He hates the life he's built for himself, and he hates himself for building it. He's miserable, and with no way to escape this life, he turns to drugs to numb the pain.
    As the song begins, it's one night before a concert, and Pink is too stoned to perform. The greedy promoter, terrified that he might have to give refunds, calls up a rando local doctor to get Pink into some kind of shape to play. It's the doctor's voice we hear first, trying to assess Pink's condition, and learn what he may have taken. The dreamy chorus is Pink, trying to respond to the doctor, as he's able ("Your lips move, but I can't hear what you're saying...") before his mind wanders off. The doctor takes his best guess and puts together a wake-up drug cocktail, injects it into Pink ("Just a little pin-prick..." *tinkle*) and shoves him out onto the stage. David Gilmour's first solo is while Pink is still stoned. It's brief, and sweetly beautiful. But his second solo is after the cocktail has kicked in, and he's forced to face the life he hates. His self-loathing, his loneliness, his frustration, his rage, his pain, Gilmour makes us feel it all.
    If you explore Pink Floyd further, you may find that they aren't a 'love song' band. They make you think. Their lyrics stay with you. And frequently, I've seen it bring people to tears, not because of the songs themselves, but because the music reaches something inside them, and brings all those emotions wrapped around it to the surface.
    The PULSE concert has become known as a truly legendary performance, and "Comfortably Numb" has been called arguably one of the greatest concert performances ever recorded. The Floyd were all middle-aged at that point, Waters had left the band acrimoniously nearly a decade before, and they may have sensed that this would be their last ride. So they put together the most expensive tour in history to that point, created one of the most phenomenal stages ever constructed - 180 feet wide, with a 130-foot arch, the huge Eclipse eye, and SO MANY LIGHTS!!! - and took it all on the road.
    I had the privilege of seeing this show with 65,000 friends, and it was even better than it looks. It was uniformly excellent, from start to finish. You can choose any song from this concert to react to, and trust that it's going to be a great version, and a visual feast for your viewers' eyes.

    The Wall album is semi-autobiographical. The main character of the story ("Pink") builds an emotional wall to protect himself from the pains of his life brought on by the people around him. Waters' real-life concert experience was amplified through Comfortably Numb to represent Pink's turning point in the story when he's totally shut himself off. It's not at all a positive turn; he turns into a monster (or perceives himself as a monster) after that.

    Fantastic reaction as always guys! - What a great rabbit hole to take Carol down, Elie! - Sorrow, from this concert, is amazing too - Run Like Hell is also a completely different fun vibe, and a sensory overload!
    Anything from Pulse is fantastic and worth a watch as a first exposure to each track, even in preference to album versions, as they really dialled it up to 11 for effort, performances, visuals, EVERYTHING - adding so much, and whole new sections, to already amazing tracks!

    David has the most emotionally expressive guitar work I think I've ever heard. It comes from his heart, powered by his soul. His guitar not only speaks, it sings, it cries, yells, and screams. It will grab your emotions and take you for an experience. Pink Floyd's music is like that. And thanks for not interrupting the solos. Well done.

    One of my biggest regrets of all time was missing this concert at Rice Stadium in Houston in 1994. I was a huge Floyd fan but something came up and I couldn't go. I also went to see Pink Floyd "The Wall" movie with my older sister and her boyfriend in 1982. We showed up to the movie theater and they wouldn't sell us tickets because it was rated R, and none of us were 17.

    I always visualized an internal dialogue as well - we’re obviously inside the head of a musician, at first hearing the voice of a “Doctor Feelgood” who’s giving him a hit of whatever will get him onto the stage, but the visions take over, along with the desperate feeling of loss, and longing for something greater and more sublime, just out of reach, just out of the corner of the eye.
    From the stunning solar eclipse that opens the great guitar solo on, we are witness to the enigmatic mysteries of life and the universe, blossoming before our eyes in an eruption of stunning light and sound, and we are left dumbfounded.

    Great choices for rock, you can't go wrong with Pink Floyd or Zeppelin. Definitely in the iconic category with them. I recently became aware of a power rock trio made up of 3 sisters from Mexico. They're called The Warning and are very talented and write their own music. They're best described as classic rock but you'll also hear punk, metal and other genres influence. Two of their biggest influences are Muse and Metallica and you'll hear those influences, depending on the song you choose. If you want to try them out, start with their performance of Evolve at the MTV VMA's last September. Keep on rocking!!
