i need to start listening to more rock! - Hudba
The second guitar solo is mankind's greatest achievement.
The greatest rock solo that was ever written will go down in the annals of history.
You are not even joking brother.
While I do agree with your statement and this is my favorite solo ever, I think if was less inclined towards blues then Randy Rhodes Mr Crowley might overtake it. Very close to this one is Gilmour's On the Turning Away solo. Gilmour is my favorite guitarist along with Iommi and Clapton just for their blues work.
@@flaggkort im with ya on that one ,,,,,gilmour cant be beaten in iconic solo status, but clapton had something else...nothing less than gilmour, just a tad more "twang bang" with clapton while DG is more "long flow short note" solo style. its a great feeling for a intemediate guitarist to play some floyd songs and get it right even just once out of 100 times....still worth it.
SOMEONE GIVE THIS MAN HIS 100TH LIKE!
Legend has it, all guitars dream of getting Dave Gilmour for Christmas.
To play endless pentatonic scales on them?
BBC radio 2 voted, the solo in numb, the greatest solo ever..
And I'm pretty certain radio 2 has way over 10 million listeners daily.
It's a big call, but I can't argue against.
Maybe Mr page would.
And some others..
But yeah...it's a bit special.
I don’t know who you are but that is the greatest truth I have ever heard. David Gilmour and Jimmy Page are the reasons I started playing guitar a long time before you were born.
@@jackiepaper6464 I'm 52 nearly..
You must be proper old..😆😆
I have to be honest I'm more in the Jimmy page camp for a solo, but I don't think anyone can this or that is the best solo ever.
There are some metal bands I love like the greatest,. Metallica.
James hetfield and Kirk Hammett are two of the greatest guitar players of all time.
But because not everyone is into Metallica it or they get over looked.
Just listen to fade to black and tell me I'm wrong..🤘
@@antonytheolddog8626 I’m also 52 but I grew up with hippie brothers and sisters. My two older sister were at Woodstock. We grew up in Brooklyn but I met a southern girl and moved to Louisiana. Anyway I grew up on Zep and Pink Floyd so Gilmour and Page had huge influence on me and my guitar playing. I know Metallica but not a huge fan. I respect Kirk very much. I can’t play some of stuff to this day. I’ve tried. I will listen to Led Zeppelin and Bob Dylan in the same day. I had a huge rage of music at my will when I was a kid. I will listen to anything and try to play it. Godspeed sir!
The guitar solo in Comfortably Numb you never want to end. It's absolutely the greatest ever. Brilliant!! Great reaction video. Thank you.
Generally regarded as the greatest live guitar solo of all time 😎😎
I saw him in Los Angeles at the Forum in 12016 and it was pretty close to this. :)
Prince at the George Harrison Tribute says "Hold My Beer."
@@erewhon751 it was great.
Here’s a fun fact that few realise. David doesn’t use an amp, he plugs his guitar into your soul.
And then turns up the volume.
Well said.
Correct. He uses four Hiwatt DR-103 heads into various cabinets.
😂👍🏻
He doesn't just turn up the volume, he obliterates it - it cuts right through like a hot knife through butter.
The guitar solo is regarded as one of the best rock guitar solos ever.
I think it's one of the best I've ever heard! 🙌🏽
@@RogueRxyce you would enjoy the version of this song live from Pompeii, they spend more time focusing on David Gilmour's playing.
@@descendantoffools9767 My gods, Pompeii, to see the ancient amphitheater once more come alive with music surrounded by the ghosts of the dead city so entombed there. It is transcendent
It is the best solo. Nothing compares to this solo.
It just goes to prove that a slower melodic solo can be much more appealing then shredders trying to hit a thousands notes per minute, which to me is boring and unimpressive! I’m older though and started rock n’ roll in the mid 60’s
I am 67 years old now, and this song still gives me chills. If tears don't come to your eyes or you don't get the chills, then you are only listening to the song; you are not experiencing it.
Well said... I'm 61 and feel the same every single time I hear it! 😊
64 and right there with you
Amen it touches your soul everytime
Fully agree
(Almost) 61 and right by you - everytime I've listened (or see) this song (or Pink Floyd in general) it gives me goosebumbs and (sometimes) teras too.
best regads from Nothern Saxony / Germany
I had the pleasure to be at the concert in 94. At the 02 arena London UK. It's was the most emotional night of my life even more than my wedding day. Pink Floyd are a British sensation. David gilmore solo best in history.
It was Earls Court, not 02. I was there too. Never recovered from that night I was there.
Saddest lines ever written: "The child is grown, the dream is gone. I have become comfortably numb."
That and “did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a leading role in a cage” in wish you were here
@@razeru3386when I play that song on guitar, I always cry at that part and I can't sing it cuz it's so true when you grow up and are stuck in the society we are.
I know right 😢
“And then one day you find ten years have got behind you No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun” is incredibly powerful as well
Thank you Roger Waters for those beautiful words!
One doesn't merely listen to Pink Floyd. One experiences Pink Floyd.
Welcome aboard.
So f'ing true.
Welcome to the machine..
You said it, brother.
"...or you can take the Pink pill, and hit the bottom of the rabbit hole so hard, you'll remember your past life AS the rabbit."
Lovely comment
David Gilmore is one of the greatest guitar masters of all time! The emotions this song brings out is amazing, as a 71 year old man I still feel those emotions evoked by this song!
"The greatest guitar masters of all time"? Really? So learn how to spell his name, son.
Ah forgive me all mighty music god, sorry my spell check corrected to a common spelling and I missed it. I promise to kill myself as soon as I get a moment, how could auto correct do this to me and my old brain is no longer functioning. I must be punished and put to death. Quit taking everything you see on line so seriously!
@@jakubklimek717 You're like, a downer gramps
my mantra age 60
Age 69...welcome to the world of David Gilmore, Roger Waters, Roger Wright and Nic Mason...In my opinion...Gilmore has to be one of the best ever...and there are several greats - but Pink Floyd - uber alles...
The only song that literally makes me emotional every. damn. time.
David Gilmour doesn’t plug a guitar into an amp, he plugs it into his soul.
The guitar solos are almost like he is screaming for a friend or someone or something that has left him.
he plugs his soul into the amp
@@boduke2299 Echoes live in Gdansk is an amazing performance. Richard and David are conversing through their instruments.
the guitar plugs into him
Which hole accesses that?
David Gilmour doesn't plug his guitar into an amp, he plugs it into his soul.
Or rather, he plugs it into _your_ soul.
Facts!
Well said
Gostei da frase😎👍
Truth!
Floyd reaches inside you, opens you up and lets your soul scream...keep exploring
Thank you. Your were not alone in your tears. I am an old man and I have heard this many times and every time I feel the same emotions you were expressing. The music especially Gilmore's guitar is soaring in an ever increasing feeling of ascencion. It sounds like the music I hope to hear when my soul makes it's final departure from this earth and my body. It's the sound of Angels drawing my soul ever higher into the mystic. If death is anywhere as good as this, I'm looking frward to it. You courage to be vulnerable and authentic has made me a subscriber. Good job.
EVERYONE gets emotional when David Gilmour plays his guitar.
True story!!!
Because he doesn’t plug the guitar into an amp, he plugs it into your soul.
Agreed. First time I saw them in concert, the girl next to me I didn’t know; on mushrooms btw; buried her head in my lap and bawled her eyes out during the outro solo. I’ll never forget it.
Universal truths
Pretty sure it's been scientifically proven that David Gilmour's guitars directly stimulate the tear ducts.
Any person that cries during a Pink Floyd solo instantly gets subscribed 😂
But if that person keeps interrupting the solo, t's unsubscibe time for me. Love how much the music moves her, but sometimes you just gotta be quiet and let the man play his guitar!
@@fd1930 oh but come on, she apologized.. Don't be an arse. Besides, you're not here to watch the original performance, you're here for her reaction. If you want an unpaused solo, go watch the original video.
@@Metallnsanity87 Didn't see the apology but fair enough. And yes, we view for the reaction....which we're entitled to comment on. I thought my comment was clearly a follow-on to the one I replied to, there's no venom intended.
@@fd1930 of course we can comment. Bt commenting and hating are 2 different things. She was clearly overwhelmed, this performance is ALOT to take in on the first view.
@@Metallnsanity87 there was no hating from me
A little bit of frustration maybe, and a response to the comment above mine
No one got harmed in the making of these comments
Welcome to the best theatrical rock band the world will ever see .....Pink Floyd . Now, you'll be hooked for life.
i always start balling my eyes out every time i listen to this song. It`s like the notes are hitting frequensies that touches my core in some weird phenomal way, it`s absolutaly ridiculous. I`d say these sounds like something divine.
I think that’s exactly what happens mate, there’s nothing else like it. I was at that concert in ‘94 at Earls Court in London. I walked out of there a different person.
It isn't a guitar solo. It is THE guitar solo. Nothing else has ever come close to Comfortably Numb at Pulse.
Amen
Nothing else is even close…
This beautiful young woman's soul has been Gilmourized!
Dude lol. Stop hahaha it hurts my side lol. 😭
@@jessep500ify ... You're on the wrong page dude, you won't find Justin Bieber here.
@@rp7326 I believe your misunderstanding about me. I am not a beibert fan. I'm a fan of your comment and Pink Floyd, but whatever it's cool.
@@jessep500ify .... my bad bro, I did misunderstand. My apologies.
@@rp7326 ain't misinterpretation a bitch! Jesse was agreeing and liking
It's a seriously masterful piece of music. Raw emotion, they are some of the best musicians there ever will be.
It's absolutely cool for you to cry, I am 55 years old and I have been crying every time I have heard this song since it first came out when I was a young boy! I have been fortunate enough to see them live several times, and it's noting that I can even begin to describe to you, you just have to be there and experience it! By the way, the Lead singer, and co_founder of the band and Lead guitar players name is David Gilmour.
" The child is grown, the dream is gone. I have become comfortably numb. "
This line stabs me every time.
Yes.
"When You Grow Up Your Heart Dies" by Gunship...check it out.
Every damn time!
You're crying because every note in that solo carries sadness and frustration like no words could ever deliver. It pierces right through your soul.
David Gilmour - On Any Tongue.
That song let alone the solo always tears me apart
Love this analysis
It is about numbing ourselves, with drug
It is pink knowing it is over, his mind is gone,he slips from sanity into insanity, no way back
@@susancastillo2167 Do you honestly believe that? It's sung from the perspective of the fictional character who is telling his story in "The Wall", never intended to suggest we do anything to ourselves. The surviving members of Pink Floyd knew full well how their beloved former partner Syd Barrett lost his sanity to drug induced psychosis, they were hardly encouraging their audience to do anything stupid. 😇✌️🕊️
I listen to Pink Floyd every day. I can’t believe this is the first time you have heard them
When those tears come, that right there, is the Pink Floyd Experience!
They say in Heaven, the second solo from Comfortably Numb never ends.
I literally want this song to be the last thing I hear in this world. When my time finally comes, I want to drift out of this life as the second solo fades out.
Please let that be true, please.please please
@@sdownin72 Oh my heaven, would that not be the best way ever to go out. I think that I will put that in my instructions for my death.
Caramba! 😮 gostei😎👍 pena que eu não vou para o céu, para ouvir esse solo divino😶
Leo Fender invented the Fender Stratocaster to show the world how good a guitar could be.
God invented Dave Gilmour to show the world how it should be played.
Agree, unfortunately, his BIO states he is an Atheist. Sad.
@@RushandUFO Why sad?
Well put
couldent agree more, the man is a legend will live on forever in the music
@@RushandUFO
Nothing to be sad about. He is a NATURAL guitarist, no god needed!
You have to love how nick plays the drums dressed like he's just came from the office.
Pink Floyd are my life.
Probably the greatest guitar licks of all time! It is the passage of time that brings tears to my eyes each time I hear this song…thank you Pink Floyd
Don't worry, 25 years listening to this version at least once a week and still haven't managed to go through without dropping a tear
100 % agree!
And it's so rewarding to watch young people discover the band.
OK, so I’m not the only one….😮
if god had created a band it would have been pink floyd!!!
Amen!!!
I was 23 years old, sat in this crowd, on my own, surrounded by strangers. And every single one of us was crying like newborns to this. Totally amazing.
I was 18 and same thing... Everyone
I was 28 years young in 1994 as I went to see Pink Floyd in Yankee stadium and few weeks later in Meadowlands Old Giant Jet Stadium, and tears could not stop.
Amazing!!!
I'd love to stay there and cry too, but at age of 11 ... well, probably wouldn't understand the universe, that happened there
Lucky!!!
I was at Earl's Court. The music went through me and bonded to my soul. Came out of the concert emotionally drained. I still remember the feeling perfectly.
Me too.
He was on top of the wall, light from behind , giving it all...
I have heard that song hundreds of times but first time I saw that version. Agree the last guitar and full on performance while watching it was one of the best moments of my 66 yo musical life. Truly your reaction gives me hope for your generation. So glad youtube recommended this. Thank you
One does not just listen to Pink Floyd...
You EXPERIENCE Pink Floyd!
This song has the greatest guitar solo in history. Ranked.
Easily
Undisputed
Been a Floyd fan since mid 70s. And yes….. was standing about 50ft away watching this band play at The Shoe. The Ohio State stadium in the late 80s. Greatest concert I’ve ever been at. And I have been to a lot of concerts!
The guitar solo is so awesome. I can feel the music flow througjh me. Been a fan of David Gilmore for a long time
"I don't know why I'm crying"
Girl, you crying because Pink Floyd created one of the most epic soundscapes of all time that deeply touches people. It isn't just the guitar, it's the entire band laying down that beat and making it feel extremely emotional.
Agreed, Richard Wright contributes just as much to the sound and the feel and I have always appreciated Nick Mason's beat
@@patrickwebb7388 Nick mason is underated as a musical drummer
I so so so agree with that statement!
Mas o solo do Gilmour se destaca
I cry like baby every time I hear it.
I was in the audience that night it changed my life....
I have never been the same since
Floyd saved my life
David Gilmore is a guitar god
I was centre front row ! Bought ticket outside from tout for £100…..
You are very lucky indeed.
Gilmore and the Pink Floyd live is a transcendental experience. I got $200 tickets, had buyers' remorse...until David's Strat played through his double HiWatt amp, then, everything blanked out and i experienced Heaven on Earth for the next two hours of my life. Thank you David, Nick, Rick, Roger..and Syd!
Gilmour
It's very emotional for me to read what you wrote. And you were there on that magical night of October 20, 1994. You said it changed and saved your life and obviously that's personal information that you're not going to share but I'd like to know. For me, this song and especially this Gilmour solo is the most beautiful page in the History of Rock. No one has ever done anything that even comes close, not even Gilmour himself, before or since, has been so mesmerizing. Thank you for his words that brought me to tears. God bless you man! Oh, I think there's a question you can answer for me. When we watch the video we see people standing still, just staring at the stage. Were they all like that, as if hypnotized? It wouldn't surprise me. Thank you!
Pink Floyd is an experience that everyone should go through ❤🎉
I don't normally watch reaction videos but I'm hooked on Pink Floyd so I gave it a go. It brings me great joy to watch a new generation experience the best rock band ever for the first time. I was so lucky to grow up listening to this band right from it's early days. My only regret is that I never saw them live.
yep, me too.
I’m not gonna lie: I cried, too. Not just because of the song (which has been in my world for 40 years) but because of the joy I got in seeing someone else hear Pink Floyd and David Gilmour the way I did the first time. This tune goes right to the feels! There’s little I love more than introducing someone to music they might never hear. I’m so glad someone is doing this for you!
That what l said, RC
You need to review Peter Gabriel -in Your Eyes (Secret World Live)
That's the idea behind reaction videos. Low quality in creativity. Easy to make. No creativity really but the appeal lies on the perceived emotions through facial expressions and such.
Is that so, C Hendrix? Did you also pause the song several times like a god damn fool? Or did you perhaps enjoy it at the speed of uninterrupted time?
We could have had a genuine reaction with real emotions, instead we god this stunted non growth. What a waste.
Narcissists are awful at reaction videos. Any positive feedback only programs their brain to continue being wrong.
@@solarplexus9782 I’m actually writing a piece about “Reaction” videos. I’ve been asked to do one, but I can’t. Primarily because I can’t stop a song mix-flow to react to it. I need to hear the entire tune in its proper context. We didn’t have that 10-second rewind 50 years ago.
Never ever stop a guitar solo from this genius..
It should be against the law to interrupt this musical masterpiece.
She is new to this. I have listened a zillion times. Never stopped it 😊
So you knew nothing about Pink Floyd?????? Is this a joke?????????
And is this a "first reaction" to them?????? With repeatedly closed eyes and a permanent stupid smile???? Don't you know that we NEVER interrupt David Gilmour's guitar?????? I forgive you. You must have been born today. OMG..
Came here to say this. Never interupt David Gilmour.
Welcome to the 70's! Takes you on a journey you never forget ❤
Gota be honest, I've not really been to too many concerts, BUT, I was extremely privileged to have been at THAT VERY concert THAT VERY night. The lighting rig , even to this day, was extraordinarily phenomenal. Electronically choreographed- every lamp - to the melodic landscape, culminating in the giant glitter ball towards the end. Quite extraordinary!! What followed was the even more spectacular Run Like Hell. My goodness, it still brings a tear even now.
Yes! The version of Run Like Hell is a masterpiece here! Perfect.
I was there a few days before... it was like being on another planet.
Always wanted to meet someone from that concert and just tell them, "You lucky, lucky.. B'stard!"
@@markwade2530 It was, you're right there. The other thing that struck me was the perfectly balanced soundstage. You simply couldn't tell from which direction all the sound was coming from. It really was a phenomenal concert wasn't it 👍👍
@@Boweevel 😁😁 yes, my middle name's Alan ... Alan B'stard at your service 👍👍
David Gilmour is one of the only people on the planet who can, not just speak, but speak profoundly through a guitar. The emotion that second solo evokes is unparalleled.
Can I use this statement for a project of mine?
Kind regards
Barry
@@FloydGuy1980 buddy you go right ahead!
David Gilmour isnt responsible for this song, Roger Waters is
@jacobdaniel8239 Thanks, that is very much appreciated.
Kind regards

@@RonnieSpam brother if that's where your focus is you are not hearing the song for what it's worth.
The greatest guitar solo of all time and I was blessed enough to experience it live.
Me too Earls Court in 1994
lucky bastard
At last count no less than 427,000 individual people on CZcams have now claimed they were at this concert.
@@ivanjulian2532 I was at this concert but at veterans stadium in philadelphia in the summer of 1994. It was the last concert Pink Floyd ever played there.
I also saw it live, Mexico City, open venue, about 80,000 people in trance and communion. The best ever.
Floyd always touches my soul when I hear it.....back in the 80/90's, and still today!
Pink Floyd is the best band in the world ever.
Nothing compears to Pink Floyd ❤
I’d bet I’ve heard this song over 2000 times and it still gives me goosebumps
Played out in the car, now on my 16th CD
MR. president to you.
Well said Fred. The emotions are strong listening and watching this number.
Big same. I’ll hear it 2000more times and nothing will change.
Amen to that...it simply NEVER gets old!
Maybe the greatest guitar solos in rock history here. good reason to cry.
I'll see this and raise you Strange kind of woman solo from Made in Japan. Nonetheless David is an excellent emotional guitarist true master of his craft.
@@neverlandxx73 As much as I love Deep Purple and Pink Floyd I think the Randy Rhoads solo in suicide solution from the Ozzy Osbourne
- Tribute to Randy Rhoads album deserves a mention, pure fire.
What's amazing about it is that it's not by any means a technically difficult or complex solo and yet it's so perfect and intense. This is rock and roll as high art
the 1st solo has always been my favorite
Lol I've heard the song a million times and I still get emotional. Gilmore is the smoothest soloist ever ❤
I'm 57 and have only consciously known one pink floyd song which was another brick in the wall which I loved when I was 12 . After that I never took any notice of them as I got into 2tone and ska . One day this song came on my CZcams feed with a guest performance from David Bowie which I thought was absolutely unbelievable. Now after a break from pink floyd for over 40yrs I can't stop listening to them . Better late than never I suppose .
Pity about all the years you missed. First saw them live November 1967... but I didn't see this concert... biggest regret of my life.
@@edeledeledel5490 I envy you . Its weird you've commented today because I've only found out today that a tribute band called think floyd are playing at my local theatre so I might give it a try
@@michaelmarshall9132 I think most Pink Floyd tribute bands are quite good. I don't think they will have as good a light show though. I think some of the kit was bought by an Australian Pink Floyd tribute band called "The Australian Pink Floyd Show" czcams.com/video/wbX7bOAUojo/video.html.
I have a t-shirt that says "I may be old but I got to see all the good bands". Jimi Hendrix, Beatles, Stones, Amen Corner, Cream, The Nice, Animals, Kinks, Family, etc.Ginger Baker once spat on my girlfriend... apparently it meant he fancied her, according to a roadie. Those were the days.
Glad to see I'm not the only one moved to tears by this performance.
I’ve heard this song probably ~ 80,000 times and the solo almost always brings me to tears
me too
I'm 68 years old and I've been listening to Floyd most of my life and Gilmours playing still brings out all the emotions including tears
I'm 61, but everything else is the same for me.
IDavid Gilmour's first solo album is ambrosia. You owe me big if you are just learning this ole timer.(I'm 66)
I'm right with you Bozzmann. Look at how long we have listened to their works! Never gets old, just gets better with every play.
Love your reaction. As a lifelong musician / guitar player it brings so much joy to see you loving this The way I do.
I grew listening to Pink Floyd my father was always jaming in the house and his car
I was at this gig, sat on stage left. My most vivid memories are during this song being completely out with the fairies and when I went home with 4 friends. We said nothing for about 4 hours, just sat there with a blank expression...................then a friend piped up and said in a very quiet voice "what the hell did we just see?" :)
That’s the most awesome, beautiful response I’ve read. You right, these guys are joust WOW 🤩
I was there as well, you knew you had seen something very special. The silver ball above the audience gradually opened into petals. Absolutely fabulous.
Lucky you!
I was sat on left of stage, about half way up in the seating at Wembley stadium. I wonder if this was the same show. I used to smoke resin back in the day, but for this show I chose top remain straight and focused, and just as well, I needed nothing, just to hear that beautiful guitar. I was nearly in tears! not a common thing for me.
I'm sooo frickin' jealous you say these guys live. Man what I wouldn't give to see this band live just once.
I love seeing the younger generation get as excited as you did, during this song, about the music my generation grew up with. There's more to come, you're in for a treat!!
Yeah I'm 67 and this was weekly with us. So glad these kids will listen and learn what music is suppose to sound like! Thank you young lady, you are beautiful.
When music can make you cry for no other reason that you feel it- that is real music.
been listening since before you were born and it still gives me goosebumps
As a 67 y.o. who has been a Floyd fan since the 1960s, I'm moved by the fact that young people can actually emotionally "get" what a masterpiece this song is. Kudos to RougueRyce.
and lets remember you don't need pot to love this music.
I'm a similar age, and the CZcams algorithm keep throwing these "first time hearing Comfortably Numb" videos at me - and I must say it fills me with joy to see whole new generations discovering this band and their music - maybe the human race is not totally lost...
Cheers, Philip … just here to say that this song, and ESPECIALLY this performance, will span generations. Gilmour still moves me to tears, and this rendition of “Numb” is the icing on top. I showed this to my 7 year old daughter tonight, and was moved beyond words to glance over her direction during the final solo to see her siestas back in the sofa, eyes closed, experiencing her first exposure to Gilmour the right way, FEELING it.
37 myself and this is one of the greatest songs ever made. My 5 and 2 year olds are getting the proper education cause this is all they will listen to when they are with me
@@markpearson3490 I love them too, but one of the ones I loved best was a young black guy listening to Judas Priest - Painkiller for the first time. He was blown away by the fast drumming, and screaming guitar work along with Rob Halford's piercing vocals.
I've never heard a guitarist that could bring out as much emotion in a solo as David Gilmour does.
Try Andrew Latimer (Camel) and the live version of Ice
Gary Moore;" Parisienne Walkways"...
@@swinetrek Omg i found someone who would write this...That solo is the greatest fucking solo ever played by a human being.The emotion on his fingers runs like a flood
If it's true that music is about picking exactly the right notes at the right time, nobody does it better than DG.
And then there is God's sympathetic vibration named Phil Keaggy. The greatest players know the name.
I watched one of the tour concert, Rome 94.
I was 18 and under the effect. I was in a band and could play some of their tracks.
I was hypnotized and stayed with my mouth wide open for most of the concert.
You are crying because they can hit some cords in all of us.
Your first emotional experience with Pink Floyd. I'm jealous!
I am lucky, I’m 65, I lived through one of the greatest music times in history. Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, The Stones, ELP, Super Tramp, AC DC, all these bands and more from that era, their music will be listened to for hundreds of years to come. And Rxyce, the emotions you experience listening to music is wonderful to watch. I made sure that my sons and there friends listened to these artist and they passed it onto there friends, a wonder to watch happen. People still flock to the cover bands of these groups for a reason. They created truly memorable music
Add Yes and I'm in!
Old and proud, these moooooodern kids have nothing but boring repeats.
You are lucky. That era will never happen again. I know you enjoyed it.
I'm right there with you. I just turned 64 and I know I lived through the best music eras EVER. I am so happy when the younger generation listens to and enjoys "our" music. I'm hoping they will keep it alive for future generations. Lead guitarist is David Gilmore. One of the best ever to pick up a guitar.
Me too...I think of myself as old now, but I have to remind myself that I was privileged indeed to have lived in the times of the most amazing and innovative music ever. I may have never seen Pink Floyd live, but I'm living it up now through these You Tube live performances..
Pink Floyd are deeper than the Mariana trench, cooler than an iceberg in a river of liquid nitrogen and more zen than 1,000 Buddhist monasteries. They have a huge back catalogue and every album is a winner. May I suggest 'Time' and 'The great gig in the sky' to continue your journey. Take care!
the whole DARK SIDE OF THE MOON album should best be consumed in one go 🙂
@@geraldherrmann787 to include no lights, lava lamp perhaps, headphones for sure and mood enhancement of choice!
In light of the current, prolonged plight all around us, I also recommend Pigs 🐖 (Three Different Ones), Fearless, and, of course Happiest Days of Our Lives and Another Brick Pt II.
Have a Cigar is specifically the state of the music industry at any point in time.
Stated Perfectly! It took me 30 years to really appreciate how Great this band is!!
You my man should write lyrics. 👍🏻"more zen that a 1,000 Buddhist monasteries" Brilliant.
What has it been? 44 years? and it can still bring tears! David Gilmour gets more emotion out of a single note than most guitar players get out of their entire careers.
i've loved your tears on this track
NEVER pause a Dave Gilmour guitar solo.
She is ........i don t tell.....f.... bi...
*NEVER pause a ANY guitar solo.
Fixed.
meh. i dont like that take, it both has a near-autistic plus gate-keepy vibe. Relax, take it easy. Let people listen how they want to.
dude i was there , twice , on leavin' the venue people were weeping .
@@DJ-ov2it I know what you mean BUT don't you think there's a progression, flow and build to a piece of music which is best appreciated as a whole. Fans of PF and Gilmore want her to experience the ride as Gilmour himself intended. He's no fucking joke man, the guy is as gifted as any musician you can mention. You gotta listen with a certain amount of respect and reverence.
I was there, I got goose bumps then, and I still get them now. 27yrs later.
I wish I could have been there myself with you!!! My all time favorite rock band!!!
I saw them in 1988
I was there in 94, too
@@lynnhoffman247 I trust you were not sitting where the seating collapsed?
@@MrJonah53 No, I was at the Clemson, SC show…just meant I saw them, too, in 1994. Never heard about that - hope no one was hurt too badly.
Got to be the best live concert EVER. Thanks for your reaction.
They put you in a stage of mind incredible is music for your soul
I’ve been listening to Pink Floyd for 40 years. Some of their music still moves me to tears.
50 years since my dad subjected me to dsotm in the dark - bastard
Almost 60 for me! David G is still the best guitarist alive.
Wait till she listens to Animals lol.
Some? Everything 🙏
You cried in reaction to what is considered by many to be the greatest guitar solo of all time, so it's totally understandable! Great music evokes strong emotions.
That's because this solo is propelling the music and not just screaming.Plus it continues to ascend to an even higher emotional level near the end that always give me goosebumps and tears.
The second solo encapsulates some kind of universal despair or inherent lonely existential sadness, it's hard to describe. But it definitely brings a tear to the eye for me too. Shivers.
one of the best guitar solos ever
Nope definitely the greatest solo ever
Arguably the best guitar solo ever. David Gilmour is a legend.
My absolute favorite
Split between this and Jimmy Page Stairways to Heaven.
There is no argument. This is the single greatest guitar solo ever recorded in the history of mankind.
@@deadordreadfist343 Lol. You said there is no argument. Ehehe.
And with none of the flash expected from the young guitarists of today. Soul, my friends.
I’m 47 years old and I’m a heavy metal fan and I’ve just listened to this song in full very first time. This is unbelievable. That guitar solo is epic. I wish I had listened to this properly Years ago. I have regrets.
No worries, Carl! It’s never too late to become one of us. 😁
With that being said, if this song filled you with regrets then I feel I must warn you: have the box of tissues and the Geritol handy before you listen to “Time”, from Dark Side of the Moon.
Better late than never. I'm a little older than you but have been listening to Pink Floyd for over 30 years. I even had the good fortune to see them live. In my opinion, Gilmour is considered one of the greatest because of the notes that he doesn't play as the ones he does. He creates atmosphere with the spaces between the notes and doesn't feel the necessity to every second with sound.
Welcome, sir. Explore ALL of it. And for god’s sake, listen to Echoes (don’t be afraid to skip the weird whale noises from 11-15 minutes).
Watch this whole concert especially the DSOTM bit, Sorrow and great gig in the sky
I wonder what you'd make of "The Great Gig In The Sky"? Who needs a guitar?!?!?!!!
The master taking you through the universe with his fingers and axe.
Thankyou !!
There is no warning for that. I’ve been listening to Pink Floyd almost 40 years and I still cry at this almost without fail.
My father was in that audience. He came back a different man lol
“David Gilmour can do more with one note than most other guitar players can do with the whole fretboard.” - Dave Mustaine (Metallica; Megadeth guitarist)
Says everything...
Never, ever, ever pause in a David Gilmour guitar solo, particularly THIS one. The greatest guitar solo ever in the history of the universe, since the beginning of time.
I disagree
Not up on the level yet…..
So EVH eruption isn't even in the same class? Or many JP solos? What about Prince on WMGGW?
@@shaughangould2647 In my opinion the greatest guitar solo is Gary Moore still got the blues
Way better than eruption
The end solo is the most emotional solo I've ever heard
@theobserver86 have you heard the 12 minute live version? Love GM however EVH wins imo. But it's very subjective bcos of mood and genre. Mark Knopfler is up there too. But for sheer quantity of quality JP wins. So much even b4 LZ.
My first Pink Floyd experience was in 1981 I was 17 years old in Italy alone and away from my family in Iraq I Am persecuted Christian Refugee in USA since 1982 i played the wall album on my Walkman headphones every day and completely numbed made me cry then because I felt the loneliness after I came to USA I was very lucky to watch Pink Floyd 2 times in 1994 tour the whole concert we were standing no bathroom break no one-moved from there seats people
were pissing where they were sitting! It was the greatest show on earth.
In that I adore Pink Floyd's music, my biggest hope for you is that you have held fast to your heavenly faith ❤
you have touch me deep inside with your reaction. I am 67 and i fell this is more than music. I love PF since i was 15!
This is probably the best version of THE solo that he does, and he plays them differently each time.. I think this really is the best guitar solo in rock music.
Debatable
@@bobhook336 which is why I said "I think"
its legend i m with you
Totally agree. I bought this album and did the same with it I did all my albums, played it once to make sure it wasn't scratched and then put it on a cassette. Then i put it back in it's sleeve and never played it again, unless I needed to make a new copy. Soon after that we got divorced and it wouldn't surprise me if some jackal she dated after me got a virtually brand new Wall album.
Take a look ar the solo with David Bowie, for me the best of all Conf Numb ever!
Im 38 year old hardcore construction worker and i still tear up if I listen to this too early in the morning. Its a emotional masterpiece!!!!!
I’m 77 years old and I’ve been listening to this song for 50 years. It never gets old to me.
You tell me what's wrong with a Guy tearing up any man that says they don't tear up Is A Liar
to be fair, you are the target demographic for that
The tears are what Pink Floyd does. There is an element of growing pathos in their music which creeps into you and the emotions come to the surface. The progressions behind the melody lines are built to tear you up.
those "feelings".. all over your arms, back, legs.. goose-pimples .. That's truly amazing musicianship ..
Forget all the modern Ed Sheeran etc.. this stuff broke all the boundaries, this took it all to another level, still unmatched, still unrivalled, pure genuine musical genius. It’s to music what Picasso was to art.
That Picasso thing is such a bad reference. People that can't paint come up with some crazy ideas and other people fall for it. It's like that kid's story "the king has no clothes". If you said Rembrandt, Michelangelo, Da Vinci, Ingres, Vermeer, Raphael, Caravaggio, Jacques-Louis David, Goya, Velazquez, Grant Wood, just to name a few, I just might agree with you. But never Picasso, or Kandinsky, Mondrian, Pollock, just to name a few
@@philipjosefarmer5740 It was the highest compliment he could give in his eyes. You have your own adulation, he has his.
ed who ? .... oh the annoying random ginger, so much samey shit around today .... my idea of torture is to be locked in a room with radio 1 playing constantly !
I don’t think a refence to Ed Sheeran is relevant. Totally different genre.
@@philipjosefarmer5740 Picasso could paint photographic like realism from a very young age. As a child he did a drawing of a pigeon, so beautifully perfect, that his artist father quit painting the instant he saw his son’s work.
I get you and agree with your point on talentless bullshit artists, but Picasso certainly does not fit that category.
"I don't know why I cry"
That's what great music does to you - it supercharges your emotions
True I got a whole list of songs I can’t even listen to in public
Music is the best medicine
Is not the purpose of Art to evoke an emotional response?
I believe this applies.
I think what I love the most about reaction videos is watching a person’s world shift as the realise that this song and this band folks a hole in their soul that they had never realised was there. I was lucky enough to grow up with Pink Floyd as part of the soundtrack of my life through my parent’s music collection.
When I see these reactions, I have a mixture feeling envy, that people can go on a journey of discovering a band like Pink Floyd for the first time… but also pity, that this person has missed having this music in their lives for so long.
I truly, truly recommend that you journey down this musical rabbit hole.
The Great Rick Beato picked the first solo from this song as the greatest of all time, and there's no way I can argue with that❤
You asked “what is this?” This, is what we grew up with. Real musicians, real singers, all REAL. I was born in 1950 and our music is so phenomenal. ✨✨
Yep. Another smug Boomer here. When I'm asked why I don't like rap or other "modern" music, I just say Pink Floyd And Alan Parsons Project.
I'm from 59 and feeling the same pain....
@@peteryoung8462 I am a Boomer too and I like hip-hop and rap but I LOVE this music because it first hit me when I was young. I don't think we have to feel SUPERIOR.
Damn right Renee. I have been checking out Yes live. Steve Howe is without a doubt one of the best guitarists ever.
@@peteryoung8462 cope and seethe, rap sucks
My Dad used to pick me up once a month, the drive home took 2 hours and this song would often come on. During the solo we would both sit in silence.
He died in 2017, I cry every single time I hear it as it just reminds me of those drives, I have him to thank for introducing me to some amazing music
Mate you got my back.
The best memories. Treasure them ❤
Meantime I heard THIS song a hundred times -
looking at lights, colour, symbols (especially the last third) ...
now i am convinced THIS is
A perfect rhythm of making love,
so I understand ....
Pink floyd live in person is unreal its the greaatest light and sound show there ever was i got to see it in person once a memory i will never forget
