Wonderful that you got that very very unique experience seeing them perform together once again. Even if Dave hadn’t shown up the show was still incredible. What a true masterpiece & to witness it live & experiencing Roger & Dave perform There biggest hit will never be forgotten I bet. Great emotional moment in your life im sure 👌. ✌️👍✌️: 🐖☝️🐑
I heard those rumors too - that Gilmour would do a surprise appearance in Comfortably Numb during one of Roger's Wall shows. (Surely not here in the US, but we had hope.) I didn't know until just now that he'd actually done it. Very classy (and emotional) performance by both artists. Dave could hardly look at Roger during the Live 8 set. This time there was real joy in his performance, and Roger was at the bottom of the wall throwing focus and support (and no doubt gratitude) to Dave the whole time. They'll never be best of friends, but they shared something this night. I'm so glad they had this moment! And yeah, tears. They shared this moment with us too!
I took my wife to her 1st concert and it was Pink Floyd for the Divion Bell tour. We had 7th row center at RFK Stadium. So I've seen this solo up close and personal. David was serenading me 🤣
@@stonewall3041 honestly, i don't think so. I used to think the reason they have continued to be so rocky was because of roger but roger always seemed enthusiastic after the split when they were together, but david meh. i remember seeing another clip where both david and nick mason got on stage with roger, roger was smiles, david face like a smacked arse.
I was there with my 16 year old son who still says this was the best concert he has ever been to. At the end of the evening they played ‘outside the wall’ and Nick Mason joined Waters and Gilmour on stage so a really magical night.
My 22yo son was at the RW gig when Mason and Wright came on and played. He was living inside my late wife’s body and unborn yet. He loves it when I remind him of this. My friend Dugal was with us too. ❤
I saw it at Earls Court in 1980. The sound quality was pretty poor and the cops were preventing us from leaving at the end to avoid a crush in the underground station. I saw Peter Gabriel at the same venue seven years later and the sound was excellent and it was a much better concert. They moved the stage out into the hall for Peter Gabriel. I don't know if that was the only reason for the better sound, but I expect not.
There are only 3 songs in this world of ours that can make my eyes well up in a matter of seconds: Comfortably Numb by Gilmour, Comfortably Numb by Waters and Comfortably Numb by the bloody both of them.
What a moment that must have been. Can you imagine going to the show and not knowing this was going to happen? I've watched this at least a dozen times and each time I get goosebumps.
@@dianahohimer1107 Some friends and I were chatting, over a few beverages, about Pink Floyd. We all had seen Australia Pink Few, and a few had seen Roger Waters and a few had seen Pink Floyd without Waters. One had seen Pink Floyd live in the 8o's. We all bowed to him.
They didnt get tired and uninspired like those bands that continue past their best. Put it down to musical differences. Luckily, all of Pink Floyd's career was the pinnacle, and we're left with many masterpiece's.
@@wollewatz it was 2 days before my 30th Birthday when I went to the O2 Arena to see the show. My 2 friends who were there with me had also heard the rumour that Gilmour would make an appearance during the tour. We all said how cool would it be if he showed up that night….not thinking it would actually happen! As you can see and hear, the place went crazy when the spotlight turned on and David Gilmour was above The Wall! Honestly just made the hairs on my arms and neck stand on end. It truly was electrifying! Plus when they played Outside The Wall Nick Mason joined them on stage. 😎
I was there too mate, what a night! Definitely one of the best nights of my life. The moment David appear at the top of the wall tears rolled out of my eyes instantly. I still got chills just writing about that night.
@@TheMisteredin2 Wow, well I am glad it’s back then! Just also surprised I’d never heard of it. You only hear the stories about how they despise each other. I guess whether or not that’s true, their musical bond is so undeniable that even they are willing to put their pasts aside to put on a legendary show!
It’s sad that now after all these years, Roger has finally grown up and do to the lasting emotional damage he put on Dave, rogers emotional growth comes too late as the 2 men are like mark and David Knopfler. They can no longer see eye to eye and we will only have little moments like this where they can put their emotional past in the past for a greater good. Something that isn’t easy for anyone. Especially one like Dave who went through hell in the 80s with Roger just being a down right piece of work back then. Let’s face it, Phil collins didn’t sue genesis for going on without him in 1997. Lie gram didn’t sue foreigner. The former members of Jefferson starship let Paul Kantner continue his beloved band and settled out of court. And the list goes on. But Roger went on torturing Dave. Something that probably influenced Dave in making the bad choices he made on a momentary lapse of reason (the whole 80s vibe couldn’t have been Dave in his right mind). So seeing this to me, as a child of the 90s, is a bittersweet event that shows what could have been if Roger had controlled his ego.
@@foxdavani4091 you make some great points here, but I just want to say that you’re not truthfully giving the whole story here. Roger’s qualms with the band came down to him not thinking the other two were good enough musicians to carry out his vision. Dave wasn’t treated as badly as Nick and Rick. Dave’s issues with Roger were in defense of his other band mates. We have to remember - Roger Waters was the visionary of Pink Floyd. He wrote 90% of their material, if not more. He earned at least some right to be critical of how his band mates played his music. Have you listened to Momentary Lapse of Reason? It’s god awful except for like, 1 song - MAYBE 2…Roger wanted to end them parading around as Pink Floyd because he wanted to disassociate The Wall and Dark Side with MLoR, and honestly who could blame him? The problem was Roger’s ego, don’t get me wrong. But his issues weren’t completely unfounded. If Dave and the guys didn’t have the Pink Floyd name I highly doubt they’d have been successful on their own merit. And that’s no knock on them. But at the end of the day they needed Roger’s music to stay afloat, and Roger knew it. But Roger ego couldn’t handle the thought of basically carrying some of the guys to fame and fortune without pulling more of their own weight. He just went about it the wrong way…
He’s got more than one and doesn’t place an awful of importance on any single version of it - I was lucky enough to go to his houseboat studio once and his manager gave us a tour and told us that. One of them was sat in the studio part at one end of the boat, and the temptation to grab it and play a bit was overwhelming!
And yet, any Stratocaster picked up and played by Gilmour will have the same impact of his personal style and choice of tones. As someone once said, "Amateurs are focused on hardware, pros are focused on 'software' "(- what's "upstairs").
@@ferenckovacsx Pink Floyd originally performed The Wall in London, New York and Los Angeles. The show was very big and expensive, so they only played those three cities. It was spectacular!
@@wilbertjimenez9400 that's the narrative but gilmour still complains about royalties on Animals in interviews, it's definitely both of them holding ill feelings
Dave's guitar giving Roger's concept and lyrics an expression. A scream. An emotional outlet. It wouldn't work without the two of them. The song is theirs.
The face that David has at the end of the song just breaks my heart. On the one hand, he's just played Comfortably Numb, one of the hallmarks of his career with his fellow band member, Roger Waters. On the other hand, he can't help but be reminded of the wall (pun intended) that exists between. Even though this was an amazing experience, it's also so bittersweet, because he knows it might never happen again. And surely enough, it never did (for now)
@@minichols5472 Roger is not perfect, but his "vision" with concepts albums and his top-tier lyrics writing makes him a genius. Seriously, do you know ANY other band with that level of lyrics ? Any ? I don't know any myself. Same for the concepts of their "golden arc" albums, I've listened to many albums, concepts or not, THOSE ones are just like nothing else, far above.
The evening before this I was in the very first row centre and had the gorgeous Polly Samson taking photos in front of me, so I asked her which night David was appearing. She waved her finger as in no-no and shook her head. Luckily, I also had tickets for row 2 the next night and bingo, I stood bang in front of where David appeared. You pretty couldn't hear him initially, as the crowd roar was monumental. It was a eurphoric moment.
I would expect my Dad to see this Roger-David reunion a short while in time on stage, now that he has passed away nearly 10 years ago. I send this tears to you Dad, Pink Floyd' fan of the very first hours, in the sky. Love you Dad, Georges, for ever.
i'd been to Vegas, Berlin , all over the bloody place, to see this show. Took my kids to this show , a bit drunk. Suddenly my best mate dug me in the ribs and said...that's David Gilmour up there ...
Anyone else catch David not sing “I turned to look but it was gone…” and instead repeated the first chorus lyric of “now I’ve got that feeling once again. I can’t explain, you would not understand- this is not how I am.”? And the background singer did a great job catching the mistake and quickly adjusted.
He probably hadn't performed it for a while and wouldn't have rehearsed with Roger. A couple of nasty bum notes on the solo too. shame. He's absolutely nailed it in every performance since then though, awesome!
David was the best thing to ever happen to Pink Floyd after Syd was no longer in the band. They may have had their moments that led to disbanding and not being the best of mates, but Gilmour and Waters is as iconic a duo as there ever will be in the history of music!
I was there for this - nobody knew it was coming in the audience. A crazy, special moment that I will never forget. Before the gig me and my friends were having a beer the other side of the river, then a private chopper flew over going towards the O2 and landed. My mate said, "I wonder if that Gilmour - haha, no chance!"... always wondered if it actually WAS him, considering we saw him a few hours later!!!
It was Nick Mason. At no point did they even show who was playing. The drumming was exactly as Nick Mason always played it. There is a 1980 live version where Nick actually plays even more fills than here.
@@neaituppi7306 I don't think this is Nick Mason drumming. Only listen to a quick hi-hat bit at 3:38, Mason never does that. I think this is Graham Broad drumming
Tengo 16 años, Hace poco fui a ver a Roger Waters This Is Not A Drill y no puedo describir lo magico que fue, ya vi 2 veces a roger, me encantaria en algun momento verlo a david
Yo tengo 32… fui a verlo a waters a the wall y fui a Gilmour en el hipódromo lo espere 16 años... Un sueño cumplido lo que lloré ese día no tiene nombre.
Bro tengo 15 fui a ver el concierto de This Is Not A Drill un día despues de ver la pelicula de The Wall Fue la primera vez que vi a Roger Waters y despues de esto me he enamorado de Pink Floyd he oido su musica durante toda la vida pero desde el final del año pasado que me adentré en su musica y me he convertido en todo un fanatico a Pink Floyd Ojala un día vea a Gilmour también saludos amigo
@@ChiEsp619 sisi es totalmente una locura porque yo los conozco desde chico y a roger lo fui a ver cuando era chico, pero esta ves, en this is not a drill, fue maaaagico, encima ya lo venia escuchando por 1 año porque lo "redescubri" y es lo mejor del mundo
I saw them in Edinburgh on the DSOTM Tour, Set list; WYWH, the whole of the unreleased album DSOTM Encore; Echoes from Meddle I have seen hundreds of other, concerts, but this is still my favourite!
Это нечто. Я выросла на Пинк Флойде. И долго не знала, что они расстались... Может и к лучшему. Я до сих их слушаю. И не перестаю утверждать, что их творчество на Земле - это то, что останется непревзойденным многие сотни лет. Низкий им поклон.
Nothing beats Gilmour’s solo in Pompeii in 2016 or 18, musically speaking. This performance is just on another level though. I can’t imagine going to a RW concert and then seeing Gilmour pop up. Incredible.
OK, just watched the video 3 times and yep....chills every time , especially when the crowd realizes it is David Gilmour!! And yes, the audiences at Pink Floyd concerts really do sing along like that. You should hear 70,000 people sing Wish You Were Here in perfect unison! That will give you the chills too.
«in perfect unison» Well... That the thing with "crowd singing": it ALWAYS sounds "perfect"... It's been explained scientifically (through gaussian curve...).
I saw this concert in Paris Stade de France, the best show i've ever seen. In August 2022, Comfortably Numb has been voted the Greatest Guitar Solo of All Time by listeners to Planet Rock radio in a new poll. Thousands of votes were cast for the poll, which was an open vote - meaning that any rock song in recorded history was eligible to be included in the countdown. Once the votes had been counted, David Gilmour's solo for the band's 1979 track Comfortably Numb was named the Greatest Of All Time.
When we arrived in London from Rome to attend the show and realized that David was there the day before we did hope to see him again but did not happened again. Marvelous gig, anyway. Years later I met David outside V&A museum and had the chance to shake his hand. What a thrill
Rob Mummery's basement and he said you have to hear this record I found. Fucking blew me away. I was 12 years old and i am going to be 65 in a month and a half.
It's moments like this I wish I could set the 2 of them in a room, offer them both as many drinks as they wanted, have them watch this and tell them to give each other a hug!
Yes Gilmours appearance is out of this world and I get that's the main highlight. But no ones mentioned the awesome light sequence when waters smashes the wall. Wow. Floyd and their lighting backdrops have always been out of this world adds a whole extra dimension to the music
I really enjoyed how Roger had his arms extended straight up while looking up at Daivid and the spotlight shining on him. What a great show that must have been. Long live Pink Floyd.
Merci Mr David Gilmour pour cette mélodie magnifique. J'adore votre fille Romany vous a la guitare et elle a son harpe en fait un morceau des plus harmonieux Et la voix de Romany est superbe et s'accorde bien à la musique. Je suis déçue vous ne venez pas dans l'ouest de la France pour votre prochaine tournée. Vous allez que dans le sud . Je suis sincèrement désolée je ne pourrais pas aller vous voir c'est trop loin pour moi .Ça me fend le co
I had the great fortune to be at Earls Court for the original gigs in August 1980 aged 18. I was able to take my 11 year-old son to this one at the O2 and gave him my previously unworn original tee shirt to wear. I've seen hundreds of gigs over the years and very many have been incredible. The Wall stands out as on an entirely different level.
Bonjour quelle superbe musique et la voix de Mademoiselle Romany s'accorde parfaitement aux accords de la guitare de David Gilmour le plus grand guitariste du monde. Bravo. J'aurais aimé le revoir dans l'ouest en France mais David Gilmour ne se déplace que dans le sud dommage ça me fend le cœur
An exceptional solo by Gilmour executing the part as originally planned.But the Wall as a whole is a tribute to not only to it's players but to it's creator.Writing the music for this piece is beyond the norm,but then putting it to a show/concert in a scale such as this is incredible.Yes,Roger gets under many peoples skin,but his concerts are legendary,as these two were when they performed together.
The production of "The Wall-Live in Berlin" the original concert back in July 21, 1990 with the Scorpions, Cyndi Lauper, Thomas Dolby, Sinead O'Conner, Bryan Adams and the rest is legendary. I've never seen a more grandiose concert production like that. It was way ahead of its time.
Did Gilmour forget the lyrics of the second chorus there. It should've gone: "I turned to look but it was gone. I cannot put my finger on it now. The child is grown, the dream is gone."
When Rodger bangs on the wall and it all splits apart? That's just such a beautiful thing. Pink floyd is easily the greatest band of all time, because somehow they preform songs that are decades old and make them new each time! This is true art
Imagine watching an amazing performance from rock legends and a commercial suddenly pops up and tells ya about auto insurance, thanks thats really brilliant.

Haha! I even said it in his voice in my head. Love it 😂
hahahahahahhahahaa

If I were Gilmour, I'd also stay 30 feet away from him at all times...
It shows Gilmour will do things like this because his fans mean so much to,him, he doesn’t want to punish the fans, I love Gilmour

Dude i say that all the time and like if u go deep into it ide stand in one spot so i dont ruin any timelines and just listen
one of the best moments in music history
You might say David was the “bigger man” ( definitely taller ) than Roger, for doing this for the fans, while towering over him on top of the Wall!
i'd been to Vegas, Berlin , all over the bloody place, to see this show. Took my kids to this show , a bit drunk. Suddenly my best mate dug me in the ribs and said...that's David Gilmour up there ...
Anyone else catch David not sing “I turned to look but it was gone…” and instead repeated the first chorus lyric of “now I’ve got that feeling once again. I can’t explain, you would not understand- this is not how I am.”? And the background singer did a great job catching the mistake and quickly adjusted.
He probably hadn't performed it for a while and wouldn't have rehearsed with Roger. A couple of nasty bum notes on the solo too. shame.
He's absolutely nailed it in every performance since then though, awesome!
It's a shame they couldn't get past our differences their music is there music was excellent I'm 69 and I still enjoy listening to them
David was the best thing to ever happen to Pink Floyd after Syd was no longer in the band. They may have had their moments that led to disbanding and not being the best of mates, but Gilmour and Waters is as iconic a duo as there ever will be in the history of music!
Don't forget Mason and Wright. The whole band was a "alchemy" accident, a gift from the Cosmos itself.
I literally got chills when David appeared up top on the wall. His music is a gift.
David gilmour filled the blanks.
What a treat. How great it is to see these two legends perform together.
I was there for this - nobody knew it was coming in the audience. A crazy, special moment that I will never forget. Before the gig me and my friends were having a beer the other side of the river, then a private chopper flew over going towards the O2 and landed. My mate said, "I wonder if that Gilmour - haha, no chance!"... always wondered if it actually WAS him, considering we saw him a few hours later!!!
Both David and Roger cruised down the Thames to get to the arena, so it wouldn't have been him in the chopper lol
This song got me thru a serious illness to full recovery. It’s part of my soul now.
David and Rogers are living legends 😍🤩❤
True bro
The simplicity of Nick Mason’s drumming made the solo shine. This drummer and his slapstick fills stepped all over an iconic sound
I completely agree. Nick Mason is such a superstar and super drummer.
It was Nick Mason. At no point did they even show who was playing. The drumming was exactly as Nick Mason always played it. There is a 1980 live version where Nick actually plays even more fills than here.
@@neaituppi7306 I don't think this is Nick Mason drumming. Only listen to a quick hi-hat bit at 3:38, Mason never does that. I think this is Graham Broad drumming
Nick Mason's drumming does not shine in this song. Cmon.
@@MarkThomas1ciao Mark! 🙋♀️😍😘💘🌅
Damned... This made me cry for the second time today... Probably I'm getting old... Or maybe this is too much... ❣
Tengo 16 años, Hace poco fui a ver a Roger Waters This Is Not A Drill y no puedo describir lo magico que fue, ya vi 2 veces a roger, me encantaria en algun momento verlo a david
Yo tengo 32… fui a verlo a waters a the wall y fui a Gilmour en el hipódromo lo espere 16 años... Un sueño cumplido lo que lloré ese día no tiene nombre.
Bro tengo 15 fui a ver el concierto de This Is Not A Drill un día despues de ver la pelicula de The Wall
Fue la primera vez que vi a Roger Waters y despues de esto me he enamorado de Pink Floyd he oido su musica durante toda la vida pero desde el final del año pasado que me adentré en su musica y me he convertido en todo un fanatico a Pink Floyd
Ojala un día vea a Gilmour también saludos amigo
@@ChiEsp619 sisi es totalmente una locura porque yo los conozco desde chico y a roger lo fui a ver cuando era chico, pero esta ves, en this is not a drill, fue maaaagico, encima ya lo venia escuchando por 1 año porque lo "redescubri" y es lo mejor del mundo
There are only three of them left. I really wish i could see they perfom together once in my life
I saw them in Edinburgh on the DSOTM Tour,
Set list;
WYWH, the whole of the unreleased album
DSOTM
Encore; Echoes from Meddle
I have seen hundreds of other, concerts, but this is still my favourite!
@petersyme7083 how lucky you are! What year was that...1973?
Это нечто. Я выросла на Пинк Флойде. И долго не знала, что они расстались... Может и к лучшему.
Я до сих их слушаю. И не перестаю утверждать, что их творчество на Земле - это то, что останется непревзойденным многие сотни лет.
Низкий им поклон.
Nothing beats Gilmour’s solo in Pompeii in 2016 or 18, musically speaking.
This performance is just on another level though. I can’t imagine going to a RW concert and then seeing Gilmour pop up. Incredible.
Nope, Mate. The best version is on Pulse ;)
The best version is on Live 8.
@@lordharry9608la mejor dedicated 🫵🏻🗿
Let's say, Pulse, Pompeii and Live 8 are the best.
This was definitely not the best. Those others were all great.
OK, just watched the video 3 times and yep....chills every time , especially when the crowd realizes it is David Gilmour!! And yes, the audiences at Pink Floyd concerts really do sing along like that. You should hear 70,000 people sing Wish You Were Here in perfect unison! That will give you the chills too.
«in perfect unison» Well... That the thing with "crowd singing": it ALWAYS sounds "perfect"... It's been explained scientifically (through gaussian curve...).
The light shining behind Gilmour makes him look like the God that he is.
might be the best song ever
I saw this concert in Paris Stade de France, the best show i've ever seen.
In August 2022, Comfortably Numb has been voted the Greatest Guitar Solo of All Time by listeners to Planet Rock radio in a new poll.
Thousands of votes were cast for the poll, which was an open vote - meaning that any rock song in recorded history was eligible to be included in the countdown.
Once the votes had been counted, David Gilmour's solo for the band's 1979 track Comfortably Numb was named the Greatest Of All Time.
It's easy to see why. Or hear why.
I didn’t know. Thanks for sharing
@Russell White my God!
The reunion we all want again, I'd absolutely love to see these 2 legends together again
Best guitar solo EVER.
They consistently have one of the best live shows ever seen. it makes it about a lot more than just the music.
They tell a story
i would have passed out seeing David Gilmour. The 2 vocals are amazing. Gilmour on guitar seals the deal for me. amazing!
I wish I would be there. I wish damn man. I pray for this night once again in front of me in a concert, the chills the craze, the environment. I pray.
The moment David showed up on that wall, I immediately got goosebumps all over my body.
David still has his voice 😊
I was there - it was electric! When DG appeared! Magical moment!
When we arrived in London from Rome to attend the show and realized that David was there the day before we did hope to see him again but did not happened again. Marvelous gig, anyway. Years later I met David outside V&A museum and had the chance to shake his hand. What a thrill
This is just one of those songs that remember where you were and what you were doing the first time you heard it. REMARKABLE!!!!
Rob Mummery's basement and he said you have to hear this record I found. Fucking blew me away. I was 12 years old and i am going to be 65 in a month and a half.
@@dudenjill1 Yeup!!! You get it!!!!
What a fantastic solo guitar play by the legendary David.
Yes but he butchered the first part very hard 😂😂😂
@@DerdickeSaltoyes and also It sounds a little flat
Worst I've ever heard.
This is ... This is ...
I have no words ...
Потрясающая музыка! Как сильно любят Дэвида!!! Все песни фаны знают наизусть и поют вместе с ним! А гитарное соло👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I was there…..was truly amazing…the reaction to David was the highlight of an incredible show….
It's moments like this I wish I could set the 2 of them in a room, offer them both as many drinks as they wanted, have them watch this and tell them to give each other a hug!
Try shaking hands with your xwife. Not possible. I understand why they do not talk
That’s a great idea 😂
Yes Gilmours appearance is out of this world and I get that's the main highlight. But no ones mentioned the awesome light sequence when waters smashes the wall. Wow. Floyd and their lighting backdrops have always been out of this world adds a whole extra dimension to the music
Simply the greatest band of all time
the crowds reaction when they realise that David Gilmour is singing brilliant it's priceless 😂❤
I really enjoyed how Roger had his arms extended straight up while looking up at Daivid and the spotlight shining on him. What a great show that must have been. Long live Pink Floyd.
His music is a gift.It's amazing that one song can contain two of the greatest guitar solos in rock history
Merci Mr David Gilmour pour cette mélodie magnifique. J'adore votre fille Romany vous a la guitare et elle a son harpe en fait un morceau des plus harmonieux Et la voix de Romany est superbe et s'accorde bien à la musique. Je suis déçue vous ne venez pas dans l'ouest de la France pour votre prochaine tournée. Vous allez que dans le sud . Je suis sincèrement désolée je ne pourrais pas aller vous voir c'est trop loin pour moi .Ça me fend le co
I had the great fortune to be at Earls Court for the original gigs in August 1980 aged 18. I was able to take my 11 year-old son to this one at the O2 and gave him my previously unworn original tee shirt to wear. I've seen hundreds of gigs over the years and very many have been incredible. The Wall stands out as on an entirely different level.
Bonjour quelle superbe musique et la voix de Mademoiselle Romany s'accorde parfaitement aux accords de la guitare de David Gilmour le plus grand guitariste du monde. Bravo. J'aurais aimé le revoir dans l'ouest en France mais David Gilmour ne se déplace que dans le sud dommage ça me fend le cœur
The visuals were awesome but the real heart is the guitar..
Bless David Gilmore✨✨
Never tired to see this performance 11 years later. Thank you again.
An exceptional solo by Gilmour executing the part as originally planned.But the Wall as a whole is a tribute to not only to it's players but to it's creator.Writing the music for this piece is beyond the norm,but then putting it to a show/concert in a scale such as this is incredible.Yes,Roger gets under many peoples skin,but his concerts are legendary,as these two were when they performed together.
They both did … don’t forget 1994
@Joe Thanks yeah he kinda butchered it but cant blame him i would've been nervous as all hell
The production of "The Wall-Live in Berlin" the original concert back in July 21, 1990 with the Scorpions, Cyndi Lauper, Thomas Dolby, Sinead O'Conner, Bryan Adams and the rest is legendary. I've never seen a more grandiose concert production like that. It was way ahead of its time.
It was the worst I've ever heard anyone play.
Did Gilmour forget the lyrics of the second chorus there. It should've gone:
"I turned to look but it was gone. I cannot put my finger on it now. The child is grown, the dream is gone."
He mixed it up, that can happen, probably in the heat of stress.
Yeah he seemed really nervous or something, which is understandable. Or just a fear of heights haha. Even his guitar playing was off.
I'd like to think it is both artist's homage to this moment that they were finally performing together, AGAIN!
The words are the only thing he screwed up.
When Rodger bangs on the wall and it all splits apart? That's just such a beautiful thing. Pink floyd is easily the greatest band of all time, because somehow they preform songs that are decades old and make them new each time! This is true art
The greatest guitar solo ever.👍
Witnessing the Best Band and composers Ever.
This is EPIC appearance!
How can Roger Waters listen to David’s guitar and not want him back? 😭
Sends chills down the body every time with Gilmour's voice and solo.
Imagine watching an amazing performance from rock legends and a commercial suddenly pops up and tells ya about auto insurance, thanks thats really brilliant.
What a privilege! I have been listening to Pink Floyd since I was 15! I cry every time I listen to this masterpiece
Thank goodness I wasn't there, because a certain heart attack would have ended my life.
Too good.
I saw Roger Waters last year, he played a great show. If that's the closest I'll get to ever seeing Pink Floyd, I'll take it.
Same man I saw him at the ball arena in denver on his birthday the big 79!!!
same here!
same here
Go see Tribute band Brit Floyd! Incredible
It’s such a sad thing that we as humans can’t forgive and forget. This was a beautiful moment, yes, but how many beautiful moments were lost?
One of the most important moments in music history.
agreed 100%
Absolutely
But somehow I had no clue about it till today
The world id a better place when these two men work together! What a treat! Thanks youtube algorithm.
I've seen Roger TWICE since this concert, how have I missed this?! It's 2022!!!
This song as performed on that stage with this light show and "wall" graphics, might never be topped by anyone else! What a concert!
Absolutely, positively, never get tired of this.
DG is my number 1 of all time. Dont care what anybody else says.
Tears in my eyes...
Pezzone di assolo..,secondo me questo pezzo puo' superare anche il mitico assolo di Confortably numb..Pura magia..❤
Maravilloso!! Gilmore y Water juntos 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Such gifted musicians, incredible writers, awesome music. Still as good today as it was in 1979.
Pink Floyd jsou prostě nepřekonatelní !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Takhle vysoko nasazenou laťku nikdo nepřekoná 👏👏👏👏👍👍👍♥️
