If there are people listening to music in 400 years, Pink Floyd will still be listened to.
based on what? how many bands/musicians music are we listening to from 400yrs ago?
@@ankh-ef-en-khonsu3274 so many.. many classical and renaissance music is still being played today
@@Miguel-yx9zg Kids grow up, bro)
@@ankh-ef-en-khonsu3274 a lot
@@ankh-ef-en-khonsu3274 Ummm, do you seriously think people don’t listen to classical music anymore or something? Bach, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Mozart? And in another couple hundred years people will still listen to those artists, good music is timeless.
Pink Floyd can make anyone get emotional. Don't feel bad for feeling your feelings.
Boohoo
@@brittanygarrison8030 You obviously don’t “get it”- and that’s fine. But it’s ok to let yourself become immersed in music and let it make your mind work. Might seem trivial to some, but for many, it’s a good thought process- just sayin..
@Doug Baird I know Roger Waters was a huge part of the band but David Gilmours guitar work was epic- I think it made them what they were.
@@dkwoodsy2082 Syd Barrett made them what they are....Gilmore and Rogers maxed out it’s potential. 🔥🔥
I lost my brother and Pink Floyd was one of his favorite bands...Wish You Were Here...gets me in tears every time. My brother was the only family member that loved me
Comfortably Numb - Live at PULSE!!!!
One of, if not, THE Most Legendary Guitar Solo in History!!!!
Yes, THE Most Legendary Guitar Solo in History!!!!
I like Gilmours Live at Pompeii version but they're both generally similar and awesome
It’s truly amazing
I prefer the album version, and well done to LFR for doing it first :)
You can’t continue to drive when this song comes on the radio. You have to pull over to air guitar the solo in this song. LOL
The last solo is one of the most beautiful things ever done in music history. Gilmour is a genius.
I hate guitar solos -- they break up the flow of the song and almost never add anything interesting. Except for Gilmour's stuff. It flows naturally out of the songs and then carries you on a journey.
This and the one in sorrow.. ultimate!
@@evilbob840 couldn’t disagree more tf
"I just picked a random one." *picks their best song*
The song is about a performer being given drugs to be pushed out on stage. The drugs make him feel an old feeling of him being sick as a child in which his hands felt light, bloated and barely movable, and yet he's still being force to perform. This is part of the story of Pink in the album The Wall which details the character's isolation from the rest of the world. The song itself was inspired by that exact scenario happening to bassist Roger Waters where he was given painkillers for a fever in order to perform. He felt that those drugs could be enough to kill an elephant. He could barely play and wasn't consciously there.
What you said saved me alot of time mate.
@That Guy Yes I watched the movie, but that rat scene had nothing to do with the writing of the lyrics as it was made about 5 or so years after the original chorus was written.
Roger waters is a legend, his solo stuff is awesome
@That Guy apologize to the queen
@That Guy Dude just corrected you sideways.
Pink Floyd: genre: Pink Floyd. It’s like nothing else. Never had been and never will be. So soothing and introspective. Sometimes comforting; sometimes unsettling. Always cathartic.
Preach JoAnn. Spot on.
More like "Acid Rock". Check out "The Moody Blues".
Peace
Amen to that! Its Pink Floyd .. there is no genre .. Its ... Pink Floyd
Psychedelic-based Bluesy-Electric British Folk music.
I'll add in very cerebral too. But that's a pretty spot on analysis.
Yes! The Moody Blues are amazing, I suggest Nights in White Satin as a start.
my guy, not many people your age just sit there and appreciate quite possibly the greatest guitar solo ever. You did them proud the proper way, eyes closed and being taken on a journey.
Not all rock music is hard aggressive music. That's just the stereotype of Rock that mostly exists in Hard Rock and Heavy Metal. Rock music alone can be as soft as this.
@@MUSICLOVER23429 All umbrella term genres are hard to define because their definitions likely aren't limited to or include all their subgenres.
The most technically correct definition is a genre of guitar-dominated music with a straight 2 and 4 drum beat, given that's what the original meaning of Rock N Roll was defined as in the 1950s when it evolved from Blues, Rockabilly, and Swing. It took the chord structures of Blues, the tempo of Swing, and the rhythm of Rockabilly, as well as the latter's parent name. However, we've since developed Rock so thoroughly that the original definition cannot cover every Rock song. Same goes for Pop, Dance, Hip Hop, Metal, and Electronic. They all have very different subgenres that when you attempt to make a general definition, you're often excluding a good chunk of the genre.
This song touches millions of people in a deeply emotional way, and for many different reasons, just like it did for you. Thank you for sharing this! You've got soul.
I am glad that I grew up with this music
I love you, kid. You got a lotta heart.
Word.
🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
#Facts 🤷🏾♀️
❤️❤️❤️ Same. Fills my 💜
he really does
I cried when I saw this live;, because I thought I would never in my life hear or see anything as beautiful again.
Me too. Front row with Crosby & Nash singing RW's part.
Same when I saw it in 06 when Gilmour toured for his solo album with Roger Waters! Had joked beforehand how awesome it would be if haha haha they played echoes. Then they did...
Same. Live at the Montréal Forum in March of 1973
Rock is very much rooted in Jazz and Blues which is probably why you feel that smooth vibe.....Pink Floyd is actually named after 2 blues musicians: Pink Anderson and Floyd Council
That's incredible. I never knew that
Interesting note about.Pink Andersin and Floyd Council: They were both from Spartanburg, South Carolina, which is about an hour and a half away from the Clemson area.
Anderson *
he actually made a really good point there, it's the way they did the instrumentation. in the B minor parts, the way the horns are used, and the whole mournful "C#DF# - BDF#" motif , is a classic motif from R&B instrumentation, you can especially hear it in things like Mellow Mood by Barry White or Isaac Hayes / Donald Byrd. 2:25-2:30 you can hear the horn motif of the "C#DC#DC#D" fill into the next bar and how an A (7th) rises above in the background instrumentation, sounding incredibly yearning, these are both classic R&B/soul tropes.
"On a U.F.O flying through a rock galaxy"...yes, that's Pink Floyd. Couldn't have said it better. Just listen to whole albums in the dark. You'll transcend time and space itself.
First short guitar solo grabs your attention. The last solo tears your heart out
as well as it can possibly be said Gilmour's finest hour
Now watch this same song live at the Pulse concert...it will blow your mind. Dude, don't pause Pink Floyd...sit back and EXPERIENCE them and react afterwards.
High Hopes is another great one from the Pulse concert
@@miconis123 Listen to High Hopes, Live in Gdansk! At the end of the Pulse version, David plays, on fade out, a few moments on acoustic guitar. In the Gdansk version, it's much longer - 1 minute and 48 seconds of acoustic bliss, in fact - and truly stands out.
@@kayakutah I'll have to look for that. I was just listening to Echoes at Pompeii
@@miconis123 There are so many good PF concerts, I just watch them all!
"Is anybody in there?
Just knock if you hear me"
Gives me chills every time
Isn't it "Just nod if you can hear me"? Like, his eyes are closed, unresponsive, and the speaker is trying to get him to do something that requires almost no effort.
Yeah I listened again and you are right
@@lanceblake4938 does knock to nod change anything ? lol haha
I love your interpretation of the prism. It's very interesting.
Great way to describe it.
Was gonna say the same.. great analogy..
There's at least one line in this song that gets everyone.
As a depressed teen, I looked for anything to make me comfortably numb. I listened to this album over and over. The movie was horrible devestating. Just wild artists.
Most original idea for the prism Ive ever heard. Beautiful
That second solo is a real face melter eh? One of my all time favorite tunes!
If you have EVER felt "off", "weird", or "wrong", this song will send you into somewhere else, man.
You need to listen to Pink Floyd -"Echoes" live in Pompeii.
YES! My favorite!!
Do you think he is ready?
@@nikolaimikhail7774 Absolutely. He understands Pink Floyd's "groove" so he is ready to hear another side of Pink Floyd's music. IMO
Yes, more than the majority of reactionistas here in the Tube!
Hell yes
You don't just listen to Pink Floyd, you "experience" Pink Floyd. ❤
"Its like im on a UFO flying through a galaxy, a rock galaxy". Man, the way you just described is exactly how i feel!! Especially in this song! When that "blast" comes, in the very begining, it is as the Big Bang just exploded before my eyes! Pink Floyd, most of the times, gives me the feeling that im flying through supernovas, planets, stars, moons, galaxies, all with some vivid fluorescent colours. God damn! I love this band! Greetings from Brasil, man!!
Live version. Comfortably Numb Pulse. You won’t regret it.
Saw the show live in 1994. Best show ever.
PLEASEEEEEEE
Comfortably Numb should be played without pauses. It just hits you different. You change as a person after listening to some songs. Comfortably Numb is the one for me. ❤️
I want Gilmores guitar solo playing in the back of my mind for the rest of my life
Why too many people spell his name wrong lol.. Must think he's Happy's Brother.. :)
Best album of all time. I'm 65 and still love putting on the headphones and relaxing. Pink Floyd is an experience
I heard this song in the car headed to the house the day my son died from Cancer. This was always my favorite but now I dodge it because it explains what my son went through. He had his own band too. This is about drugs but try to see a cancer patient's experience. "The child is gone, the dream is gone" KILLS ME!! My son was sick his entire life. He had a fever of 105. He had siezer's in my arms when he was a year old. This whole song explains my son's life too. The guitar solo at the end always makes me scream "Play it Tylor"!!!
So sorry for your lose man, can't imagine the pain, hope you're feeling better. Keep ur head and heart up high
I hope you're doing well
Words cannot heal that wound but try and carry on
Your son would want you to carry on
😢
I just love how everyone, regardless of musical proclivity, familiarity with the band, or preferred genre can feel the genuine hurt in all the quintessential Floyd. You picked the right random song.
They've been labeled "Acid Rock" especially early in their career ... for me though I prefer Brain Candy. This is music that put the neurons in your brain into another state.
More of a rock opera
It is emotion in the purest form, it is music, but beyond music.
YES!
I think acid rock is appropriate, its like the trip without the acid.
We honestly need to figure out how to tap into more of that!
This song is from the album the wall, each song tells a part of an entire story.
This song is mainly about how he's started blocking the world out and beginning to slip into madness.
In the story drugs and depression are taking its toll and he can't even go on stage to preform so he's given a drug to get him going long enough to do it, but he's just going through the motions (numb). Also, in the story he caught a bad fever when he was young and nearly died, how he's feeling now reminds him of that time when he was very sick many years ago.
That's why listening to just one song can be very confusing for newbies
Set aside some time and go for the whole album experience. I can still air guitar the whole thing.
people say this all the time, but i know my parents raised me right bc i am a 13-year-old teenage girl watching this video to remind me what true beauty is
keep expanding your mind musically....you wont regret it....nice job!
This is great. He has no idea what he's getting into. No idea this is one of the most classic rock songs ever written. Love this young man. 😎
You have left the planet on Spaceship Pink. Welcome to the '70s.
You nailed the old blues connection, they literally named the band after two blues legends. The music just wraps you in a warm blanket
One of the greatest guitar solos ever.
Please watch the Comfortably Numb Pulse 1994 live version! David Gilmour is on God Mode there!
ruclips.net/p/PLOOBf9-87OIYNDoZkeg4sSi7ABQktEuGi
Absolutely! 👍❤️👍
the Delicate sound of Thunder live version is WAY better than pulse!
Pink Floyd are best described as an emotional experience, they best express what it means to be a human being.
I appreciate viewing reactions like yours because I'll never be able to listen to these songs for the first time ever again.
I think that's why I watch reaction videos
It's very interesting for me to hear a young man's impression of music I been listening to for decades. Don't let anyone tell you what to listen to, or how to think about it. That is the magic of music, we will all feel it differently; our love and appreciation of it can unite us.
Lol ! I love this. I am 68 years old, I have been listening to Pink Floyd for over half a century, for real. I love how you analyzed the triangle, the white line, and the rainbow of Pink's music. Well done ! I have never even thought of a name for the style of music they play. Nothing seems to adequately cover it. Call it trip music: they take you somewhere else without having to take acid...lmao. Check out the live version from 1994 ( I think ) from Earl's Court in England, and wear a seat belt...
PINK FLOYD ..LIVE PULSE , THE BEST CONCERT EVER !!
Live in Pompeii is awesome too. ruclips.net/p/PLOOBf9-87OIYNDoZkeg4sSi7ABQktEuGi
WE were sooo lucky to of had such amazing music when we were young, it cradled our souls and matured us, we were given such glorious God given talented artists . These songs WILL take you on a trip, an inner trip, so just chill. Peace be on you wee brother ,,, from Australia.
Pink Floyd music is the kind of music you can put your headphones on and just fall into it like a soft pillow
The best way to listen to Pink Floyd is in total darkness with the volume up
Geddy Lee from Rush was saying best solo and that's what I have said for years - Top 5 guitar solos ever in this song. I heard that David Gilmore played over 50 takes on this solo. He was determined to get it to sound perfect. And it does............................. so smooth
Pink Floyd are one of the best to ever do it.
Seriously, I have always said if there was one band i could listen to for the rest of my life it would be Pink Floyd, I wish I could have been able to have seen them in person. Pink floyd, class of their own!
More Floyd songs. Welcome to the machine, Money, Great gig in the Sky, Wish you were here,
Time, Another brick in the Wall part 2, hey You.
I've never heard a bad pink floyd song.. lovlovlove
The Wall by Pink Floyd is a masterpiece. I never tire of it. It sounds as fresh today as it did when I was 17. I can't say that about The Beatles or The Stones. Go down the rabbit hole of The Wall, you won't be disappointed.
I listened to this song back in 1982 on the radio , saw them in concert in 1988 in Australia. Most epic concert and music ever.
It's what's called a concept album every song flows into the next and it's one of the best rides you'll ever take
My view of pink floyd is, they are not just a band. But a feeling.. a memory.. a way to forget.. it is truly just great music! And to see the younger generation listen and get bitten by the older music is refreshing 👌 good work pal. New sub here also🤭😎
Your reaction to this song is 100% genuine and authentic. For me, the first time I heard it, I wad in my car driving. I had to pull off the road so I could cry. There was no way I could feel this and operate heavy machinery safely at the same time. Many, many people have had this response to the song. Your reaction is what makes this channel real, ....and very powerful. I am terribly proud of you for taking a musical journey like this. It helps many understand how it is that music is something everyone can understand. We may all be different in so many ways, yet certain things, like well-crafted music can make the same kind of feelings well up from deep within each of our souls. Well done. Very well done, indeed.
I love your reaction. I can see your soul opening to a universe of music. Pink Floyd is meant to be listened to as a whole album. They tell a story that flows. Watch the PULSE concert. Remember to breath while feeling the music. Never feel bad for being emotional over music, it shows your humanity.
Yes. Smooth. "...my hands felt just like two balloons..." I always took that as that state when you're so high that your hands feel like they're distended, numb; that if you washed your hands you wouldn't even feel the water. And yeah, check out the live version at the Pulse concert - one of the greatest guitar solos. Ever.
I played Pink Floyd to my now 20yo son since he was little. Told him, "Pink Floyd is good for the soul."
"When I was a child....... my hands felt like two balloons.
I can remember being about 7 yrs old, having a fever and really feeling, half dreaming, my hands being huge and like two balloons.... Truly.
And it would have happened many many times....
Beautiful music
Your breakdown of the song after it was over was really insightful, especially within the context of the entire album. I encourage you to listen to the whole album, The Wall, from start to finish to absorb the whole story. Be prepared... The album takes you on quite a ride.
Pink Floyd. The lyrics are deep and the guitar cries with emotion.
Surreal... the word that you're looking for is surreal.
gilmours guitar on this is legendary....sit back in a dark room at night....turn up the volume....close your eyes.....and let go.......
You couldn’t have hit a more perfect description of PF. From the alien ship to the prism. You, my friend, give me hope!
A great song. Do yourself the favor and listen to the whole album The Wall, from start to finish. Truly an amazing album. If you're down for the visual and audio experience, the movie is worth the time.
Back in the day of progressive rock, we didn't try to fully understand lyrics when we first heard a song. Lyrics were something to study and think about later, then re-experience the music with that enlightenment. Go with it the first time, then come back for more. That's the beauty of progressive rock, it keeps getting better with each listen.
Your dad did such a great job opening your world up to different music. You have such a strong grasp on meaning and understanding. I appreciate your takes on the music that has been massive in my life.
you gotta watch the same song from their live-concert PULSE 1994, greatest rockguitar solo in history.
Appreciate the honesty and you had insights into this song I never had before so thank you for that.. I had a similar reaction as you to this song when I first heard it and I was about your age. You’re still young, don’t let a song get you too down. Your spirit of life, positivity and feelings of joy are as legitimate as ever. Everyone ages but we remain who we are. Music notes and thoughts in song can be powerful but upbeat songs are just as real in terms of describing life. As someone wrote below, this evidently is about a time when he had a stomach problem and got some kind of medical injection so don’t let this simple piece of music influence you too much in a dark way. We can celebrate our whole life and our life continues. Great guitar solo though at the end, eh? Beautiful work from David Gilmour.
Saw this live at RFK in 93. First time my wife heard this she said: “That’s Pink Floyd?!! Oh, I like Pink Floyd!!!”
When I was I child I had a fever. My hands felt just like two balloons. Now I've got that feeling once again. I cannot explain, you would not understand.
best band of all times 😎👍 It's my birthday today , pls , react to Pink Floyd live to Pulse concert 1994 .. coming back to life .. High hopes .. hey you .. or Comfortably Numb ( uncut version ) = best live guitar solo .. 🎸🎶
You are a lucky young man, being able to tune in to all of this magical, iconic music for the first time [am more than a bit envious]......you will never be the same again after discovering the Floyd......enjoy and keep up the good work.....kudos to you
Listening to Pink Floyd's "Comfortably Numb" (and "Shine On, You Crazy Diamond" - as well as other tracks...) in the dark, is like having an out of body experience.
Never be ashamed of showing Your true feelings, my friend!💕
Keep Your reactions coming!
This song takes me back to when I was 18 drinking Southern Comfort and orange juice watching this movie for the first time. Memories from a mis-spent youth
Welcome to the Pink Floyd zone! They are their own branch on the tree of rock. I consider them more a musical performance. They DO cut through the mental clutter and pull your emotional strings. Enjoy! Watch Echoes Live at Pompeii. I feel this is their best live performance and you see them young and playing. I never get tired of watching that video.
Hearing them live was like a religious experience. I cried like a baby.
Another Floyd fan is born...Their songs will have an effect on you throughout your life. Cherish the moments you discover listening to Floyd songs for the first time. The songs will stick with you forever and only get better with time. Loved watching your reaction...
You don't have to break down the song. You got it. The child is grown, the dream is gone.
They light up the soul. It's an emotional reaction to the sound coming through the air
Another all time fave! As far as meaning "... Waters said that much of the song comes from something that really happened one evening when, in order to allow him to perform in Philadelphia, the doctor gave him a sedative for a severe stomach ache, which had probably caused by nerves. On the stage, his hands were numb and his vision blurred, but none of this derailed the crowd, who continued to dance and sing. And it was out of this that one of the main themes of The Wall came about: the disconnect between the public and the band." auralcrave.com/. I'd like to put the guitar at the end on a 10 hr loop.
This is one of the Most appropriate reactions to Pink Floyd I have ever seen. Pink Floyd has a way of touching your Soul and making your feel things you never knew were there, and to see young Man that has never experienced Pink Floyd react the way he did speaks volumes to the power of their music. Pink Floyd is true Soul Music, embrace your feelings.
I've been listening to Pink Floyd for 50+ years....and they're still unique. David Gilmour's guitar playing gets down right emotional.
Check out " Learning to fly" by Pink Floyd. One of my favorite songs. I found Pink Floyd when I was like 13. That was back in 93. Damn I'm getting old lol
"I turned to look but it was gone, I cannot put my finger on it now
the child is grown, the dream is gone,
I've become, Comfortably Numb."
Some of the most profound lyrics in all of rock... rivaled only by the heart-wrenching solo that comes after.
You do know it's about drugs, right?
@@THEPELADOMASTER that's not exactly correct. Have you listened to the entire album?
Don't feel bad about how you feel. I'm 34 and have listened to pink floyd basically all my life because of my dad, and no matter how many times, that last guitar solo ALWAYS gets to me. You can just hear emotion put into it.
This guy gets it. You don’t listen to Pink Floyd. You don’t analyze them. You experience them.
Loved your reaction to Comfortably Numb. There are many amazing Pink Floyd songs to discover, including Shine on You Crazy Diamond, Wish You Were Here, and anything from the Dark Side of the Moon album. Pink Floyd transcended regular mainstream rock, and were so innovative that they were considered founders of Progressive Rock. Try also listening to Dire Straits songs, Private Investigation or Telegraph Road, anything from Radiohead's OK Computer album, anything by Genesis, including the solo work of Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins, as well as the mountains of songs by Elton John with Bernie Taupin's lyrics. These icons of rock were not only great songwriters, they were the poets of our time, and their music is still as relevant as ever. Stevie Wonder is another wonderful artist to discover, and is best communicated in the Songs in the Key of Life album. I could go on forever adding to this list with great rock musicians of the 60s, 70s, and 80s, and I am just glad that you are interested enough to discover them yourself. Keep it up.
Pink Floyd music touches the Soul, glad you enjoyed their song. Try watching some of their live concerts either Pulse or Pompaii
That music and Pink Floyd analogy was very insightful.
the heaviness of life starts getting to you The more responsibilities you have and the more bad thing you learn about in the world start depressing you and you long fir the days when bed time was your worst fear.
Sometimes quietly going with the song is plenty reaction enough.
I like your interpretation of the prism and your thoughts and seeing how it affected you at the end. Welcome back to Earth.
They described themselves as progressive rock. Try "Great Gig In The Sky" from the same album!
Great Gig In The Sky is off Dark Side of the Moon. Comfortably Numb is off The Wall.
It's your life. Compressed into moments you'd rather forget, yet these moments make you who you are. Life is that way. Embrace it.
Makes me happy as hell to see a youngster getting lost in the musical genius that is Pink Floyd. Keep expanding your horizons my boy, the musical universe is vast.
P.S, I saw you digging that solo. Check out "Europa" by Carlos Santana.
Loved your description of the album cover, never thought of it like that, and I have loved Pink Floyd since the 60's great reaction
You should check out the pulse live version. Mind blowing guitar solo from David Gilmour 🤯
The song is about disassociating mentally, or having a breakdown and relating that feeling to a time you remember as a kid getting really sick.
The Album The Wall is about being conditioned through childhood till he became like a machine and built a wall around himself and lost contact with the emotional self he was as a child. The wall not only locked the world out but locked him in. As an adult he took drugs to get in touch with his own finer feelings, hence the constant refrence to childhood feelings. The album ends with the wall being dismantled leaving him defenceless and vulnerable. I must say though, for a 17 year old listening to this for the first time, you have great insight. It obviously disturbed you......you must be relating at a deeper level. This is one of the deepest albums ever produced. I suggest yo get to know it!
