IT is always great to see the younger generations still be moved by the classics i grew up with ..keep searching dude listen to simple man by Skynyrd..62 years young still jamming to this today...
Nothing wrong with sheddin' a few tears to the legendary Pink Floyd, I've shed my share, LOL! Pink Floyd is my 2nd favorite band/performer of all time!! My favorite will have you cryin' like a little girl.......
You've done it the right way listening to the studio version first. Now you need to go see what they look like in concert with the same song from the 1994 Pulse concert and division Bell tour!! They're without Rodger Waters but this version is beyond belief mind-boggling with an unbelievable live show and an extended guitar solo at the end that very many people consider the best live guitar solo ever!
Definitely the best guitar solo ever, and played live out of this world ! Will never forget seeing them live in 1994, and when they played this lovely song it was absolutely mind blowing !
I'm a 64 year old man who has followed Pink Floyd since the early 70s and a few times been brought to tears just listening, you would have to be a robot not to have teared up listening to the band, it's not just the lyrics that talk to you, the guitars tell their own story too
When I had to put my Lab down a few years ago, I came out to the car and started it. This song had just began playing on the radio. I sat there in the parking lot balling my eyes out but it was so perfect, almost Devine. I’ll always remember Fred when hearing Comfortably Numb.
I want to explain to you, this song hits differently depending on your current mood/situation. Around 5 months ago I was married and although we weren't getting on and eventually split after 12 years I used to listen to this and feel sad (like you) now as I'm experiencing freedom and finding myself again I feel ecstatic listening to it. Everyone goes through dark times in life, you're young and it's a part of living but make sure you come out stronger and reflect on how you've overcome your sadness what slight changes you made to make you feel better, maybe you made huge changes. Focus and follow your dreams. Focus on this channel and where you see it in five years, forget about money and fame do what you feel you want and go for it then rest comes later. Good luck 🤞 "Time" pink Floyd is also a beautiful song but also has a meaning which really doesn't hit home until you age more
@@mikerevell8145 Thank you for this beautiful comment. It made my day. Yes music can really change depending on how we feel. I know things get better with time. And yes i’ve heard time before it’s amazing!
I can only imagine you're going to surely feel Honeymoon just as deeply. Lana's a master at making you feel things and taking you places. She transports you, and she'll heal you if you let her 😊
Welcome, brother ~ you've been "Floyded". Come on in, the water's FINE. Pink Floyd is, at it's heart, an electric blues band (they took their name from two blues musicians.) So their music tends to bring out emotions, partly from the topics they write about, but more so from the fact that David Gilmour is truly a world-class blues guitarist. So it's okay to respond emotionally. 👍 This song is from their concept double-album, "The Wall". VERY briefly, the song is about a rock star named Pink who has come to hate his life, and turns to drugs to escape it. One night before a show, he's found too stoned to perform. The greedy promoter, not wanting to give refunds, calls in a rando local doctor to get Pink into some kind of shape to go. The lyrics are the conversation between the doctor, trying to assess Pink's condition and what he might have taken, and Pink, comfortably numb, trying to respond as he's able, before his mind wanders off again. The doctor mixes up a "sober-up" drug cocktail, injects Pink ("Just a little pinprick..." *chime*), and sends him out onstage. David Gilmour's first solo is while Pink is still stoned, and it's pure, beautiful bliss set to music. But Gilmour's second solo is after the shot has kicked in, Pink is now sober, and he's been dragged back to face the life he hates. We hear Gilmour pouring all of Pink's pain, loneliness, his self-loathing and his rage and and his hatred of that life into his guitar. And now I'll echo what other commenters have said: you have a treat waiting. Check out the 1994 PULSE Concert version of this song. I saw the tour ("The Division Bell") which became the PULSE Concert, and it was truly PHENOMENAL. Pink Floyd were always musical perfectionists, so the sound quality is impeccable from start to finish. And the lights....well, you'll see. They'll blow your mind. Any song from that concert is worth reacting to...they are all brilliant. Pink Floyd shows weren't just 'concerts'. They truly were an experience; you felt like you were INSIDE something, not watching it. (For example, Floyd used revolutionary-at-the-time quadraphonic [4-channel] stereo, then placed speakers all around the perimeter of the venue. So out of the dark sounds could come at you from behind, or the back of the house, or the far side of the room, in addition to coming from the stage.) Pink Floyd brought their own reality, and for three hours they let us visit them there. Go check PULSE out.
1845..,.hí. music is certainly an artistic form where one can, and should, interpret it through one's own lenses and take from it what one needs. In this case, the story líne behind the song is, by most counts, quite different than what you have relayed in your above post. I say this only to encourage others to research and apply their own meaning to the song, which may be very different from your own, though each is entitled to their own viewpoint.
NOW, go and view the live pulse concert of 1994. Pink Floyd always coupled top class live sound with the best visual shows in the world. Comfortably Numb live is up there as one of the best performes ever. I was there on 1994 and even after 30 years just thinking about the concert gives me goosebumps. Never seen anything to better it in all my 75 years.
Great reaction. Perfectly candid and not pretending to be anything you are not. Appreciate it, you’d love more pink Floyd. They are known for excellence all around. The song writer who wrote the lyrics is roger water. Insanely creative such as that concept album “the wall” which has a whole story, and also their famous album you’ve heard “dark side of the moon”.
Welcome to that which is Pink Floyd Always a journey for the soul and mind. 63 and still tear up to this and other Floyd songs, had the pleasure of seeing them three times, almost spiritual 😎
It appears that you seem to like Pink Floyd and if you do you need to check them out when they were your age on another video! Try doing the live version of Echoes from Pink Floyd live at Pompeii 1972. They do a 14-minute song it's only the first half of Echoes In an ancient Roman theater in Pompeii Italy with no audience just by themselves playing an unbelievably beautiful slow building song. It's the song many believe when they found out who they were finally going to be and they did Dark Side of the Moon directly after a somewhat unknown album "obscured by clouds" and then they did the album"Meddle" with Echoes being the second half of the whole album!
I felt exactly the same first time I heard this back in the day and didn't quite know why as I was very young. It's taken years to figure out what it means. I only know what it means to me though. Thank you for your honest emotional reaction. Respect brother ❤
The conversation at the beginning is between a doctor and his rock star patient. The doctor gives him an injection so that he’s able to perform at his next concert. Roger Waters wrote this about a real incident that happen to him.
Welcome to magic of Pink Floyd... You will be addict to them very soon. 50 years ago Pink Floyd were already 200 years ahead of everybody! There is "Music" and there is "Pink Floyd". They brings you somewhere out of your body! Pink Floyd made me fly for the last 55 years and I've been bless for that!
This song is so deep in it's true meaning. It's about the grind of life being so severe, you literally need drugs (prescription, NOT illicit) to get through it, or recover from it enough to go back to work. As well as the loss of innocence as we age and we transition from starry eyed children with dreams to adults who struggle to get through each day and maintain our health and sanity. Definitely watch the Pulse 1994 version. Fair warning, do not zone out and close your eyes. A large part of the performance is very visual. The guitar outro changes slowly and by the end, you can hear Gilmour pouring all of life's pain and suffering through his guitar into your soul and you will end up ugly crying. I've seen it so many times, I can make it through without ugly crying, but I still well up. Once you hear this song, it changes you forever.
I recommend setting aside 1.5 hours to listen to this masterpiece Album in it's entirety from beginning to end...a totally worth while and extremely memorable experience. Get comfortable with a glass or 2 of wine, and allow Pink Floyd to reveal to you what an inimitable colossus of a band they truly are.❤
Just to mention a thought i had watching your reaction. "The Show" mentioned in the song is indeed drawn from Roger Waters' real experience at a Pink Floyd concert at which he of course performed, being a member of the band. However, "The Show" in the movie The Wall is a highly surrealistic "show" that the audience has been led to understand is really only in Pink's mind. I suppose that's how Roger wanted it presented all along. In Roger's later solo concerts he added more visuals and dramatics to be even more like the movie. Good move in my opinion
Definitely listen to the Pulse Concert version 1994 live Comfortably Numb unreal guitar solo voted as the best by many! Great Reaction! Also Sorrow from Pulse Concert
This music help me go through time of lonliness and need to let go deep blind emotions. The lyrics written by the master Roger Waters. He remains thanks God with us defending the victims of injustice and oppression.
When I was 14 I met this girl whose parents like legit hippies who wanted me to get into classic rock. I agreed to listen, even though I didn’t think it was for me. She played me this album (& made me watch the movie) & I loved the entire album but this song struck me. Like I wanted to be comfortably numb, desperately. She told me the song was about heroin (it’s not) & I was like I need to do heroin, lol. Like it’s fcked up but I wanted that comfortable numbness. Although heroin def isn’t the way to get that, it feels to good. I’ve never tried ketamine but that sounds more like something that would make you comfortably numb. I’m a whole a$$ mom now so I won’t be finding out but sometimes I still long to achieve perfect blissful numbness bc life is fcking hard sometimes. Emotions and caring about things is often brutal
The younger generation would do well to listen to Pink Floyd occasionally as their music is able to reach inside you and you can let those emotions go... Just let go.
Those are the kind of lyrics that stick with you for a while. Maybe even for a lifetime. Floyd has a way of doing that to you. Shout out Roger Waters, among the greatest lyricists in all of Rock. And just in case you don't fully get it through prose alone, enter guitarist and co-lead vocalist David Gilmour to drive it home with an intensity and emotion very few guitarists can match. Simply one of the greatest of all time. After checking out the amazing live Pulse version of this song from 1994, check out "Hey You" from this same concept album masterpiece, "The Wall". Nice job!
It's ok , we most of us have experienced many Floyd songs that water our eyes. This band knows how to hit ya in whatever mood you are in. They are fixers.
Pink Anderson Floyd Council two great Blues musicians for which the band was named after. In my 70s. Been a Pink Floyd fan since 1968. Song still brings a tear to my eye at times. Echoes live at Pompeii. Something you might want to also check out when listening to Pink Floyd songs. AI has now made psychedelic movies to go at some Pink Floyd albums. Has the Psychedelic flavor of the past with today's technology. And somehow AI knew what a acid trip was like. Lol 🚜🤠🐂
I don't want to talk on your social anxiety by saying "you're not alone". Because I'm the same and that means nothing to me. It's like "Great. So more people than me are miserable in those situations. We're all miserable in each other's company. That's terrific news. Thanks for the support!" 😄 I'm only saying that I feel you, man
The live version from Pulse, 1994, is the version to add to your playlist......but audio only for your car......the video will never allow you to watch the road. lol Despite earlier nonsense, the song has NOTHING to do with illicit or illegal drugs. It is about the night that writer and bass player , Roger Waters , was too ill and in too much pain to perform a concert. A doctor injected him with a prescribed and legal stimulent and pain killer. The stimulant sent his brain astro travelling to a different universe and the pain killer numbed his whole body, hands and fingers......so he couldn't play the bass anyway. He stood on stage for over 2 hours while the band played around him. His hands like 2 balloons is a reference to a childhood illness he had when his hands lost all feeling and it felt like 2 balloons were covering them so he had no feeling of touch.
Good review buddy, but i would say for future tunes, get a good set of head phones, say Seinhauser or something like that. Ear buds don't allow the whole ear to collect the background tones and vibrations. They just make it better.. Well done
As great as this is, the live version from the Pulse concert takes it to a whole other level that no other performance I've ever seen can match. Be sure to check that out. The whole concert will blow you away. I'm going to see David Gilmour at Madison Square Garden in 3 weeks. He just played his last show in London and I know he's performing Comfortably Numb on this tour so I am stoked.
Love your reaction ❤ Pink Floyd is amazing ❤ I seen them a couple of times😅 maybe you can ck out Money or Another Brick in the wall 💯🦾🔥🐐🎸🤘🎧🇺🇸God Bless you and yours 🙏. Peace, Love, ,joy 😊
The song isn't as sinister as I may seem ....The lyrics were written by Roger Waters after suffering a stomach flu before playing a live gig.....His stomach muscles were cramping and he was given a muscle relaxant shot by a Doctor......He was able to go on and play the show.....Hence being "Comfortably Numb"
No band on Earth like Pink Floyd! Your system has a loud noise floor, a kind of loud hiss all through the video. Check out Floyds 1994 Pulse concert version
great react, the only distraction was your fan? something is coming across as a low roar, that is distractiong, however your emotions are Not! At diff times in ones life Floyd will really hit a nerve, or several! Keep on brother! ANd check out the live one as recommended!
Nice reaction! but, adjust your audio. Put a friggin mic near your mouth and kill the background ambient noise. Your fans will enjoy the experience much more...
Please please pleaseRUN to the LIvE version at Pulse !! It will blow ur mind ⭐️☑️this was a Great reaction. if you don’t FEEl Pink Floyd the way you did then ur just not listening . ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Dude ,,, If you actually love this song that much, then you need to take a deep dive into Pink Floyd! Since you are on a song from the album THE Wall. To properly listen to it, you need to listen to the 2 Albums in order. You mention how that song is deep and emotional; the entire album was born out of loosely some experiences of the band and the roller coaster they felt they were on. The entire album was conceived by the band with the intention of also doing a movie, which was actually finished a few years after the album's release. So therefore, I would do the entire album front to back before experiencing the movie, which is done as an expressionistic film, not a concert and not a drama on anything. If you are open to the experience, you will be on an emotional roller coaster. then start over from the beginning with some pot and do it again with shrooms.
IT is always great to see the younger generations still be moved by the classics i grew up with ..keep searching dude listen to simple man by Skynyrd..62 years young still jamming to this today...
Nothing wrong with sheddin' a few tears to the legendary Pink Floyd, I've shed my share, LOL! Pink Floyd is my 2nd favorite band/performer of all time!! My favorite will have you cryin' like a little girl.......

Right! Definitely in the top 5 guitar solos.
techniquement peut etre pas le meilleur solo de tous les temps, mais emotionnellement, sans aucun doute...
What he said...
Yes, yes, yes. Always studio first.
Definitely the best guitar solo ever, and played live out of this world ! Will never forget seeing them live in 1994, and when they played this lovely song it was absolutely mind blowing !
Everyone has cried at some point after hearing this song.
I cried in 1988 when I watched Pink Floyd live for the first time. And I cried two weeks ago when I was in Rome to hear Gilmour play this live again.
100%. I've cried to this song at least 3 times since I was a kid. Pink Floyd is magical.
I'm a 64 year old man who has followed Pink Floyd since the early 70s and a few times been brought to tears just listening, you would have to be a robot not to have teared up listening to the band, it's not just the lyrics that talk to you, the guitars tell their own story too
Pink Floyd is not just music. It's medicinal. Therapeutic.
Still a powerful tear-jerker after all these years. Welcome to the club (life).
Gotcha. Old school music will change you inside out. Dont underestimate its power. Pulse next. Its a must.
A little Pink Floyd always calms my soul!! Im a 53yr old granny and they have gotten me through some tough times over the years!! Stay lifted!!
Very Very Few understand the song is VERY SAD .
The last few lyrics hammer it's true meaning . The Child has Grown - The DREAM is GONE
Very powerful lyrics!
I bought this album the day it hit the record store back in 1979... i was in high school .. love pink floyd
my life without Pink Floyd would not have been different......but with them it is definitely more beautiful
When I had to put my Lab down a few years ago, I came out to the car and started it. This song had just began playing on the radio. I sat there in the parking lot balling my eyes out but it was so perfect, almost Devine. I’ll always remember Fred when hearing Comfortably Numb.
@@DaleKarr Wow thank you for sharing. it was like the song was made for that moment
every human being can find relation and commonality in this songs words, its an experience weve all had
This rabbit hole goes deep, my friend. Enjoy the ride.
I want to explain to you, this song hits differently depending on your current mood/situation. Around 5 months ago I was married and although we weren't getting on and eventually split after 12 years I used to listen to this and feel sad (like you) now as I'm experiencing freedom and finding myself again I feel ecstatic listening to it.

This song is from their concept double-album, "The Wall". VERY briefly, the song is about a rock star named Pink who has come to hate his life, and turns to drugs to escape it.

David Gilmour's first solo is while Pink is still stoned, and it's pure, beautiful bliss set to music.

We hear Gilmour pouring all of Pink's pain, loneliness, his self-loathing and his rage and and his hatred of that life into his guitar.
And now I'll echo what other commenters have said: you have a treat waiting. Check out the 1994 PULSE Concert version of this song.

Love The Pink Floyd for over 50 yrs , good honest re-action bud !! Great if you can do Foreigner , I want to know where love is .
There are times when this track sounds how it feels when you find out that a friend has died
You don't just listen to Pink Floyd. You experience it. Lie down in a dark room and pull up this album and feel it.
Hang in there. Find joy. Wake up and choose to be happy, it helps. Being an adult can suck.
I'm 63 and rarely listen to Pink Floyd without some tears along the line.
The conversation at the beginning is between a doctor and his rock star patient. The doctor gives him an injection so that he’s able to perform at his next concert. Roger Waters wrote this about a real incident that happen to him.
Wow that’s incredible thank you for sharing that !
The best way to describe this song is simple: the lyrics tell the story, the guitar makes you think about your own.
Welcome to magic of Pink Floyd... You will be addict to them very soon.
50 years ago Pink Floyd were already 200 years ahead of everybody!
There is "Music" and there is "Pink Floyd". They brings you somewhere out of your body!
Pink Floyd made me fly for the last 55 years and I've been bless for that!

Try " Shine On You Crazy Diamond". The intro is pure magic.
Greatest band ever, now check out 1994 pulse live same song...
Pink Floyd: when the chorus is a bridge to the chorus sung by the guitar.
Great song great reaction. I got to see theses guys back in 1988.
You should check out "High hopes" this time exceptionally, the live version from the Pulse concert. Similar vibes. Also freaking amazing guitar solo.

I recommend setting aside 1.5 hours to listen to this masterpiece Album in it's entirety from beginning to end...a totally worth while and extremely memorable experience. Get comfortable with a glass or 2 of wine, and allow Pink Floyd to reveal to you what an inimitable colossus of a band they truly are.❤

Simply one of the greatest of all time.
After checking out the amazing live Pulse version of this song from 1994, check out "Hey You" from this same concept album masterpiece, "The Wall".
Nice job!

i’ve heard dark side of the moon!

I don't want to talk on your social anxiety by saying "you're not alone". Because I'm the same and that means nothing to me. It's like "Great. So more people than me are miserable in those situations. We're all miserable in each other's company. That's terrific news. Thanks for the support!" 😄
I'm only saying that I feel you, man

The live version from Pulse, 1994, is the version to add to your playlist......but audio only for your car......the video will never allow you to watch the road. lol
Despite earlier nonsense, the song has NOTHING to do with illicit or illegal drugs.
It is about the night that writer and bass player , Roger Waters , was too ill and in too much pain to perform a concert.
A doctor injected him with a prescribed and legal stimulent and pain killer.
The stimulant sent his brain astro travelling to a different universe and the pain killer numbed his whole body, hands and fingers......so he couldn't play the bass anyway.
He stood on stage for over 2 hours while the band played around him.
His hands like 2 balloons is a reference to a childhood illness he had when his hands lost all feeling and it felt like 2 balloons were covering them so he had no feeling of touch.
Pink Floyd ..Time
Good review buddy, but i would say for future tunes, get a good set of head phones, say Seinhauser or something like that. Ear buds don't allow the whole ear to collect the background tones and vibrations. They just make it better.. Well done
🤗 Subbed for Pink Floyd! Hoping for some Pulse PF video reactions! Music Therapy for the soul! 🖖🏿🥰🐰
Pink Floyd touched your soul……
@@maddmuggs definitely did my friend
With PF be ready to cry a lot, they know where it hurts.
dude i think it is the exact opposite when i am in church or even at home i get emotional and cry! no need to apologize! by the way i am 60 years old!
Great reaction! Have you listened to The Moody Blues or Jethro Tull?
It's an experience ❤❤❤
a beautiful one!
Pink Floyd is good for your soul
As great as this is, the live version from the Pulse concert takes it to a whole other level that no other performance I've ever seen can match. Be sure to check that out. The whole concert will blow you away. I'm going to see David Gilmour at Madison Square Garden in 3 weeks. He just played his last show in London and I know he's performing Comfortably Numb on this tour so I am stoked.
link to it?
yes, pleas, please,, the live version, at pulse
I don't know if you know the Rolling Stones, but if not, you absolutely have to do Sympathy for the Devil lyric video. It is an absolute masterpiece.
Welcome to Pink Floyd.
Love your reaction ❤ Pink Floyd is amazing ❤ I seen them a couple of times😅 maybe you can ck out Money or Another Brick in the wall 💯🦾🔥🐐🎸🤘🎧🇺🇸God Bless you and yours 🙏. Peace, Love, ,joy 😊
Invest in good headphones; audiophile rule number one.
@@raddison6084 What are some good ones?
The song isn't as sinister as I may seem ....The lyrics were written by Roger Waters after suffering a stomach flu before playing a live gig.....His stomach muscles were cramping and he was given a muscle relaxant shot by a Doctor......He was able to go on and play the show.....Hence being "Comfortably Numb"
There's a good version on In The Flesh with Roger Waters. Live from Portland.
The only time I cried when I listened to this was because I could not find my acid.
At some point, you have to take a break, and reacess yourself. I love dark side of the moon! Listen and think for a moment. Kinda bear your soul!👀🙏
You should do Time next
Time should be next! Or high hopes! From the pulse concert 1994…
@@peanutbutter35 i’ve already heard time!
Now try watching the version of 'mother' from the wall on dvd with roger waters. If you dont lose it youre not human.
No band on Earth like Pink Floyd!
Your system has a loud noise floor, a kind of loud hiss all through the video.
Check out Floyds 1994 Pulse concert version
Yeah i gotta work on it!
David Gilmore does not waste a note... everyone means something....
Hey, honestly, if you don't cry with this song, you're just not listening.
great react, the only distraction was your fan? something is coming across as a low roar, that is distractiong, however your emotions are Not! At diff times in ones life Floyd will really hit a nerve, or several! Keep on brother! ANd check out the live one as recommended!
Like in your reacton to good music
Give yourself a treat... watch The Wall.
Nice reaction! but, adjust your audio. Put a friggin mic near your mouth and kill the background ambient noise. Your fans will enjoy the experience much more...
Hope you know if you stop a solo you broke a rule
Play losing my religion.by rem.Vonnie
Please please pleaseRUN to the LIvE version at Pulse !! It will blow ur mind ⭐️☑️this was a Great reaction. if you don’t FEEl Pink Floyd the way you did then ur just not listening . ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Hits home, don't it?
Dude ,,, If you actually love this song that much, then you need to take a deep dive into Pink Floyd!
Since you are on a song from the album THE Wall. To properly listen to it, you need to listen to the 2 Albums in order. You mention how that song is deep and emotional; the entire album was born out of loosely some experiences of the band and the roller coaster they felt they were on.
The entire album was conceived by the band with the intention of also doing a movie, which was actually finished a few years after the album's release. So therefore, I would do the entire album front to back before experiencing the movie, which is done as an expressionistic film, not a concert and not a drama on anything.
If you are open to the experience, you will be on an emotional roller coaster.
then start over from the beginning with some pot and do it again with shrooms.
@@BradAshman-cb7rx No drugs for me but definitely need to listen to THE WALL
Pleas react pink floyd dogs
