- The Wall Part 1: • Their BEST Album? - Pi...
Today we finally hit the big one...Comfortably Numb...But there are other amazing songs in this half too! Thanks for stopping by for part 2 of Pink Floyd's "The Wall"!
P.S. I was notably inarticulate in this reaction, as I was leaning into enjoying the album over analyzing. :D I think many of you will appreciate that approach on Pink Floyd projects.

In case you missed it. At the very end, you can hear someone say: "Isn't this where...".
This connects with the first words spoken at the beginning of the album: " ...we came in?".
If you put this album on full repeat, it continues like one piece of music.
I like to think it represents the endless cycle of madness the character of Pink is going through.
It does
@@degeweldigekaas not exactly Pink's cycle, but the cycle that he was caught in and perpetuated. People inside the wall are horrible to the people outside, even becoming tyrannical leaders in extreme cases. This leads to extreme pain, and other people building their own walls, and continuing the cycle.
For pink, Hitler played a big role in adding bricks to pink's wall, and Roger is getting at the idea that Hitler was inside his own wall.
You need to watch the PULSE version of comfortably numb, if you felt the song short, that live performance will fill your heart
Ahhh, nice profile pic! |-/
Why does everyone go to the pulse version? No Roger -not the same , enjoyed the live 8 version
That beautiful voice you heard in Comfortably Numb is David Gilmour. He and Roger Waters both alternate vocals on that track.
I can't wait for you to see the movie. It is an absolute mind trip, and it has a song that was used exclusively for the movie.
Don’t see the movie, see the Roger Waters live performance of this album.
See Alice In Wonderland from the 50’s too! Make a playlist of the wall and remove Comfortably Numb and it all will sync with the movie.
@@rreznor660 excellent suggestion!!
@@rreznor660 best to watch them both
@@Dinosaurs_with_laser_guns wasn’t it The Wizard of Oz?
This is the album that made me a Pink Floyd fan. Even if it's not my favorite (that would be Wish You Where Here), The Wall is a unforgetable experience and your reaction remind me of myself blown away as a teenager.
Amazing video.
Thanks for the thoughtful comment!
Shine On You Crazy Diamond is easy top 10 best songs of all time.
Comfortably Numb live is a must-see, the solo's extended to perfection with so much added stuff instead of fading out. So check it out, the most popular version is the Pulse version, others are just as good though in my opinion.
A real pleasure to see "Comfortably numb" being so much popular in 2023. A lot of people restart talking about it
This album changed my musical life - when I heard it as a freshman in HS, I'd already known and loved them from their 1987 Concert album, but that was just David Gilmour on vocals, and having Roger Waters and the original (not exactly but main run lineup of the band) made it a new level. I used to literally listen to this daily for maybe a year straight, and would write the entire lyrics in notebooks all day long at school. I bought the TAB in book form, as in 1991 that was all one could do, and tried to learn how to play things like the "Comfortably Numb" solo with little skill and on a cheap classical nylon guitar - little did I know I now possess certain unique sounds to my playing as a result, but yeah, tough endeavor. Not sure if this is my overall favorite of all their albums - but - yes, yu know, yes it is. When the 4 members re-united one time in 2006 it was like the greatest moment of my life. The solo to Comfortably Numb is to me the greatest in rock history - not the most technical but Gilmour is a guitar god not for playing fast but creating melodies with his solos and tone and bends that are all his own. Really cool album to hear you react too - super pleasant surprise!
You have good taste. This is their masterpiece... One of the greatest albums of all time. I enjoyed your reaction. Obviously you're a musician and much of your analysis was based generally around the music, but as you delve deeper into the lyrics upon future listens you'll quickly discover this is unquestionably their darkest album - if not most sublime.
Chef's kiss 😘
Comfortably Numb LIVE at the PULSE CONCERT (1994) offers an extended guitar solo and a spectacular light show which combine for an unforgettable performance.
A man's descent into madness. What a fucking masterpiece.
On Confortably Numb's lyrics "The child has grown, the dream is gone"... David Gilmoure's solo at PULSE was the perfect expression of how deep those words can go. He makes you feel the whole journey from that child to his grown self, being no longer dazzled by the world,. and missing that feeling like hell. It's a solo you can't just hear, you feel it, inevitably.
Just found your channel. Loving your videos - your enthusiasm is contagious and a joy to see!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Your reaction was absolutely perfect! Glad you enjoy the “weird” as much as the rest of us. Originality is the most important trait in music to me.
Great reaction. Tingles in my Pringles is a whole new one for me awesome. Welcome to the world of Pink Floyd.❤️✌️🌼
This is the best reaction I've seen of this album. Dark side of the moon is my favorite PF album. I find it to be a little more consistent and more well groomed. But the musical peaks on The Wall are absolutely gorgeous and spine shivering! Thoroughly enjoyed this. Thanks mr Walk
I'm glad you enjoyed the journey! I did as well, so I'm glad you appreciated it.
I have a feeling that there were lot of pictures going through your head when you were listening to this part. It can be a great experience to now watch The Wall movie from 1981 and see "how near or how far" (that's a quote from other PF masterpiece you haven't reacted to yet - PF fans recognize this instantly :D ) you were to what's in the film. It's partially normal movie, but partially animated. As PF's music surprise you very often, this movie will do the same :)
1982.
@@flubblert ah yes, 1982
6:11 ”I could sign up for an album of just this stuff. Just the acoustics”
I present to you, the song “the herald” by Comus
You can also check the "The Wall Live in Berlin" 1990 celebrating the fall of of Berlin Wall.
I'm totally down for you to do more Pink Floyd
I first listened to this album a year ago when I was 14 while in the car on my way to Idaho, falling in and out of sleep while it played, and that sh*t did something to me, because now I'm obsessed with this band.
It's great that you're enjoying Pink Floyd.
There are 3 singers in this band, and I'll break them down based on what you heard.
The Dark Side of The Moon is mostly David Gilmour(guitarist) singing.
Richard Wright(keyboard player) does backing vocals in Breathe, Us & Them. The only song that Richard takes lead vocals on is the chorus section of Time.
Roger Waters(bass player) sang lead vocals on Brain Damage and Eclipse.
The Wall is quite the opposite where Roger sang most of the songs, because that album was his personal project.
It's easier to say which songs Dave sang since everything else is Roger, and Richard didn't sing at all in that album
Dave sings the humming vocals at the beginning of The Thin Ice, he sang the Mother's parts in Mother(Roger sang as the kid talking to the mother, and then Dave comes in at "hush my baby don't you cry")
Another Brick in The Wall Part 2 is him and Roger singing together.
Goodbye Blue Sky, Young Lust, Comfortably Numb(the chorus sections only, while Roger sings the verse), Run Like Hell(every verse line he and Roger switch back & forth)
As I mentioned, The Wall was Roger's personal project so he wrote and composed just about every song, but, Dave composed the music for these songs off The Wall; Young Lust, Comfortably Numb, and Run Like Hell.
If you like the more theatrical bits, you might like The Final Cut. An unsung classic in my book and Roger Waters spiritual sequel to The Wall.
Very overlooked!
One of my favourite albums
He he. Most people don't really rate "The Trial" but I really love it. Also if you feel that the solo for Comfortably numb is a but short, check out the Pulse version as others hav mentioned. Also if you love this... would you check out "Nixon in China"?
What a beautiful reaction, really... It was like I was discovering Pink Floyd with you, and I'm a big fan for so many years... I even saw the Pulse concert in Montpellier in France, the best concert ever... You should listen to the live version of Comfortably Numb, an amazing guitar solo, more than a performer, David Gilmour shows us he's a story teller with a guitar... Love from France 🇫🇷😘
Run Like Hell LIVE at the PULSE CONCERT (1994) is absolutely brilliant.
You have to watch the movie, It’s a work of art and it’ll give this amazing album perspective, after all it is a soundtrack about the rise and fall of a rock star who like so many post WW2 children struggled with the consequences of war torn Britain before PTSD was a recognised. condition.
In the UK up to the mid 1980s corporal punishment and child abuse was rife. The main hit from this album “Another Brick in the Wall” was like a mirror we’d hold up to our physcopathic teachers. We’d play it or sing it full blast in the corridors, classrooms and dormitories. Consequently we felt a sense of justified empowerment no matter how hard the teachers tried to ban it!
Both Waters and Gilmour are the vocalists of Pink Floyd.
For instance, the chorus of confortably is sang by Gilmour, the rest of the song (and most of the wall) features Waters on vocals.
Personal request . I think it would be great to react to another classic, this time something opposite to floyd´s sound.
I suggest Fun House from the stooges.
We´ve missed your reacts...
If you’re looking for a new unique rock band, check out Black Country, New Road. It was a 7 piece band, so you’d love the additional instrumentation.
PLEEEAAAASE CHECK OUT BLACK COUNTRY NEW ROAD ANTS FROM UP THERE WILL BLOW YOUR MIND
Lol I had the same reaction hearing The Trial for the first time. I was so confused yet blown away at the same time
Preferring The Wall to Darkside isn't any major crime.
I think fans of either also generally love and respect the other.
I am also in the group of people who consider The Wall the better record - though I also love Darkside and recognise that its largely a matter of opinion and personal taste.
brilliant reaction
Great reaction, you're the man. I am a big Floyd guy and go Animals > The Wall > Dark Side > Wish You Were Here
This was an excellent reaction video. ... Well done! Probably the best one for you to review would be *"David Gilmour - Echoes (Remember That Night)"* ... And only that version.
Pink Floyd.... what a trip!
No way! I've always said "Run Like Hell" predicted the 80s, and now you said the same 😄
If you enjoy the more beautiful lighter tracks, you would probably love early King Crimson. I Talk to the Wind is a great first track to check out, but definitely a great catalog to explore.
That part you said “sounds like a saw” in Hey You is a drill 😁
The Wall movie is a mind fuck on a whole new level. One of the best pieces of cinema ever!
I hope to see your reactions to their other incredible albums. You've done Dark Side and The Wall, so you absolutley have to listen to Wish You Were Here and Animals.
And don't sleep on atom heart mother!
Listen to comfortably numb on the pulse concert 1994 and listen to the solo on the live version its fantastic ❤
Great reaction ....Think you may like Dogs from the Pink Floyd Animals album
You'll probably love The Division Bell. It's just David Gilmour so it's not as versatile as the "golden era" of Pink Floyd but imo it's just as beautiful. Gilmour makes perfect use of his guitar mastery
Nobody can make a guitar sing like Dave Gilmour
It's not just David Gilmour, it's Pink Floyd minus Roger Waters. Rick and Nick play major parts as well.
@@ianfortier6796 thank you. Geez.
You have to react to Pink Floyd's Live 8 performance!
I would recommend the first segment of Dan Olson's "Nostalgia Critic and The Wall", where Dan sums up the story of the album and his thoughts on it. The rest of the video is talking about NC's awful parody of the album, so that's not needed watching, but I think you'd enjoy that first 7:30 of the essay.
i have to be honest,not my favorite reaction video(s) to the wall,but i think it was mostly due to you being more focused on the music rather than the story of the album,which is fine because the music is so overwhelming at times. the story is very intricate, and hard to get on your first listen. i hope you have gone back and re-listened on your own, preferably while reading along with the lyrics. when the album came out in 1979 we were left to figure out the story on our own (the movie was a few years later). repeated listening is the best way to absorb it,and will yield more and more understanding each time.
Great reaction 🙂 if you love this record, Supertramp's Crime of the Century is right up there for best rock album ever wth The Supertramp has amazing instrumentation including sax
You may really love Atom Heart Mother.
REALLY experimental. Really different. Lots of horns and LOTS of weird sounds.
Funny you should say The Trial reminds you of My chemical romance.
'The Wall' and Queens record 'A Night at the Opera' were major influences on 'The Black Parade'.
Personally, i know the album as two doubleside vinyl records
So:
Side1
In the Flesh?
The thin Ice
Another Brick in the Wall Pt. 1
The happiest days of our lives
Another Brick in thr Wall Pt. 2
Mother
Side 2
Goodbye Blue Sky
Empty Spaces
Young Lust
One of my Turns
Don't leave me now
Another Brick in the Wall Pt. 3
Goodbye Cruel World
Side 3
Hey you
Is there anybody out there?
Nobody home
Vera
Bring the Boys back Home
Comfortably Numb
Side 4
The Show must go on
In the Flesh!
Run like Hell
Waiting for the worms
Stop
The Trial
Outside the Wall
On Comfortably Numb when you say this is the best you've heard his voice that's because it's not him, it's David Gilmore the dude with the voice of an angel! Whatch that song from the "Pulse" tour, the guitar solo will melt your face but also watching an old David Gilmore looking like a Grandpa but sounding like an angel is insane.
You are now owed us and yourself the experience of watching the movie
I'm curious if you are familiar with Bloc Party and/or Cage the Elephant? Both bands don't have enough people reacting to them. I'd love to hear your thoughts!
Bloc Party´s debut album is so fucking good...
bloc party sucks
Wish You Were Here next
My favorite bands are Pink Floyd, Muse, Babymetal. Mike Oldfield is very close here. I think you'll really like Atom Hearth Mother and Echoes from Pink Floyd
Yes....That is fretless....
Another great produced album by the best rock trio ever RUSH ...Moving Pictures
Now you need to see the Movie.
listen to Wish you were here. it's their best
I wish you didn’t skip at all. We are all in it for the full ride with you
He only edited the video for copyright reasons - he listened to the album in full
Definitely do Wish You Were Here and Animals, they came between DSOTM and The Wall and I think they're equally good, if not better.
It's all about the money pink floyd played and made music they sang to there own tune not a record company's they tell stories though out there albums they are brilliant ❤
You were always in the theater.
if u say its gotta be one of the most perfect solos ever ... listen to the pulse live version ... you will likely reassign best solo to that :)
Animals and Wish you were here next?
Definitely possible! If people enjoyed this enough
Once you do Dark Side and The Wall, you need to follow up with the entire discography. Your grasp of the music isn't something often seen with Pink Floyd's music, so you need to follow that through. For your benefit and ours. Great reaction here, man! Wish You Were Here next, then Animals. Then from there, hit the rest.
@@NightwalkReal We did! You really have to listen to the other "big" ones
@@NightwalkRealplease do animals first its such a crazy album
PLEASE listen to some Roger Waters solo albums- he’s the real mastermind behind a lot of these albums. Some of the weirder tracks off of this album are very similar to his album Pros and Cons of Hitching
👏👏
loved it
The Madcap Laughs. That is all.
😎👍
When they split up, Waters gave the band the rights to the name "Pink Floyd" on the condition that "The Wall" was his alone. I saw waters "The Wall" in Stockholm, Sweden and it was magnificent! Instead of Gilmore on the guitar it was Roger Waters' son. He shone!
Are we there to listen some music with you ? or just there listen to you talking and talking? What a talkbox!!
I would like to know your thoughts about the use of slurs in the In The Flesh reprise. Obviously it's a difficult topic, and I know that you're not necessarily paying attention to the lyrics or meaning, but considering the current political and social landscape do you think it would still be acceptable in 2023 to write a song like that? Why or why not?
I don't think it'd go over well at all. I've been reading their lyrics and I was pretty surprised because I didn't make out all the details in that song. I'm not going to say my personal opinion on those things because I try to keep this channel out of the controversial territory, but I definitely don't think people would be okay with it now. But, it's clearly being used to make a point...
@@NightwalkReal Alright, that's very fair. Thanks for the response, and great video!
@@NightwalkReal for the record, Roger Waters who is about to kick off the European leg of his current tour (he was here in the US last summer), does 'In the Flesh reprise' live dressed in full fascist regalia and repeats every slur word for word. At the final line where he says "... I'd have all of you shot" one of his henchmen hands him an automatic rifle that he proceeds to aim and spray into the audience with full gunfire sound effects. It's all met with roaring applause from the audience. Fans of Pink Floyd and this amazing album and *commentary* GET IT!
You can look up this live version here on RUclips.

@@flubblert this aged well haha, now they're trying to cancel him. Those people probably have not listened to the full album.
Watch PF the movie The Wall. Album will make more sense. 👍
lol. Thinks David singing is the best Roger has sounded on the album.
2 different people singing on that song. Roger verses, David chorus.
2 singers
bro.. i just came across your page. watched some of your vids and noticed you havent done any Turnstile. You MUST listen to them. Do a reaction to GLOW ON (their most recent album). Great fucking band, i swear. PS their older stuff is a little different from their newest album but its all great!!! pls pls pls give them a listen
Animals!!!!!!!
Please listen to Ants From Up There or at least google it and read a review or two before dismissing it. The wall was my favorite album ever for a long time and the thing that got me into music, and I’ve watched all of your Radiohead reactions as i’m also a devout radiohead fan so please listen to me when I say I do believe you will find Ants From Up There to be one of the most impressive albums ever. Rated top album of the year overall on RYM and has received critical acclaim from everyone I’ve seen who has reviewed it
At least consider it
I’m sorry I never comment but I’ve been watching u for so long and I believe we have incredibly similar music tastes and I wholeheartedly believe you will find so much to love about that album especially because of how much you loved The Trial they’re both incredibly theatric but in a beautiful yet devastating way
dude, that's cheating
way to ruin Comfortably Numb bro! you know you can stop talking for 10 secs now n then Quippy McChatterbox 🤣
Mate, if you want to listen to the song uninterrupted, why not just go and listen on Apple Music? We’re here for the reaction - it’d be pretty boring if he just sat there looking at us!! I for one love hearing him get surprised and excited around every corner.
And, Nightwalk my friend, you absolutely need to do a reaction to the Pulse live concert version of Comfortably Numb!!
Dude, you talk too much. Just sit back and LISTEN and react afterwards.
Well I’m not going to sit in silence for 50 minutes and review it afterwards, and if I ever pause people also get upset. I think this is a pretty decent middle ground.
So many other channels do that... I'm here for Nightwalk's own way of reacting. If you don't like it, move on!
@Nightwalk - Do it your way, man. Don't listen to the ones who complain about how YOU do YOUR content. They can walk if they don't like it.
@@NightwalkReal I think he did it about right. He definitely spoke over some key lyrics but I suspect he was more engaged with the music and production than anything else. Which is okay. You can only take in so much of such a powerful and transcendent album at first listen.
@@flubblert Thanks all! I know it's not gonna be everyones cup of tea but that's alright. I've actually been reading through some of the lyrics and they're really powerful. Will continue to dig!
Pathetic to reach that age and never hear this album.
Thanks!
Huh?
@@NightwalkReal lmao
Bro you do know Pink Floyd isn’t as popular as it used be right? Lmao
