You have just listened to what many regard as the greatest live guitar solo in music history. Same concert...Coming Back To Life, Sorrow, Wish You Were Here, Shine On You Crazy Diamond, High Hopes, Run Like Hell...just do the entire concert.
I was in the crowd on the night this was recorded. Yes, it was every bit as incredible as you are imagining it, only more so. I feel privileged to have been witness to what is widely regarded as one of the finest live guitar solo performance of all time.🔥🎸 David Gilmore is just on another level.
I saw them twice, 40,000ish people each time. It is sad that I will never get to experience that again, and that people who are just discovering Pink Floyd will never have the opportunity to see them live.
I still think Is There Anybody Out There has the better solo. I like to think the Comfortably Numb solos of this era were Gilmour's response to his friend Douglas Adams referencing Mark Knopfler as the ultimate Fender Strat player in Hitchhiker's Guide.
One thing about PINK FLOYD is that they are master musicians and they hold the best lightshow in rock n roll great reaction great song keep on rocking!!! 🤟
One of my first open air concerts was a Pink Floyd concert. It was a big mistake. All other concerts of other artists just disapointed. Sound quality, the vibes, the light show, the crowd .... I still have no words for it and it still causes shivers when I see those videos.
They one of the originators of light shows. They were also the first to use surround sound in their concerts. Their concerts are designed to be an experience you get lost in.
Lulu my name is Clay & I remember a reaction video that just made me smile like I haven't in a long time. It was Jimi Hendrix Hey Joe live at the Monterey Pop Festival. The excitement you got from Jimi playing with his teeth really got me. I was 12 years old when I first seen that & I was in total awe of the man. I'm 53 now & I'm still in awe even today. As great as that performance was (which was his first big show here in the states) you really need to see just how good he truly was at playing with his teeth.... That would be his live performance Jimi plays Berkeley either Purple Haze or Johnny B. Good Now back to Pink Floyd.... This song here is just a piece of a story from one of the greatest albums ever The Wall which you should also check out. Now my gift to you would be listen to the song Time by Pink Floyd, listen carefully to the lyrics, feel them & never forget them. Make every single day count
I'm 50 years old, when I was 16, there wasn't all this technology that young people have. Sitting by the seaside, with a bonfire, with friends smoking weed, and listening to these songs... it was about friendship and happiness, in the African islands...
I was at this gig in Earl's Court, London, 1994. Magical experience. Captivating, trippy. Amazing songs, brilliant musicianship. Unforgettable atmosphere. The start of the gig got halted before the 1st song got going as there had been a seat collapse in the audience and they had to pull the gig and reschedule for a week later and we all got to keep our tickets and came back!! No serious injuries. It was weird coming back to such a huge venue and saying 'Hi!' to people you'd seen for the first - and last - time just a week before!!
It was Nice to see three generation reacting on this concert! 🤩✨ I always Got teary eyes when i listen to this particular Pink Floyd concert.. 🥹 Man!… That was a Genius concert❣️😍 I really hope you have shown this concert to your (grandma’s husband, daughter’s father and grandchild’s grandpa”! 😃 I wish i could see his reaction too.. 😄
The glitterball was originally a flower at the back of the stage that opened up its petals in earlier gigs. And they do use flowers a lot in their stage videos to represent the life cycle. Been going to their gigs since the mid 60s when they were supporting Jimi Hendrix right up to this run of gigs at Earls Court, where I attended 6 nights of a 13 night run.
Thank you ladies! A brief context comment: This song is off of "The Wall." It is a double album and a "concept album." It is a collection of songs that all relate to a semi-autobiographical story by Roger Waters. There is also a movie created from this album. "Pink" is the protagonist in the movie. He is a rock star in this part of the album/movie and is mentally/physically breaking down. "Comfortably Numb" is a double entendre (or triple, or more), regarding the affects of drugs to "get you through the show, come on it's time to go..." or mentally checking out of your life, or simply dealing with life....an important thing to know about PF is that EVERYBODY ultimately has a different take on what it means to them. Also, there is soooo much history for this band and their name comes from a founding member, Syd Barrett, who tragically was afflicted with a growing mental illness and excessive drug use. Ironically, he was replaced by David Gilmour, who sings and plays lead guitar here. Syd's two favorite blues guitarists were Pink Anderson and Floyd Council. Roger Waters would later write, "Shine On You Crazy Diamond," for Syd.
I saw Pink Floyd on this very concert tour in May 1994 at the old Foxboro Stadium in Massachusetts. It was an incredible experience. I will never forget that concert as long as I live. This concert footage was from later that year, at the end of the tour, in October of 1994 at Earls Court in London.
I was there! They did two shows at Foxboro. They opened with Astronomy Domine, which I hadn't heard before, and a whole new world opened up! I also saw Roger Waters The Wall many years later and completed the pilgrimage. This band was hands down the most intelligent, perfectionist one - music, lyrics, lighting, they knew how to put on a show.
I attended the first of 3 shows in Foxboro on May 18, 1994. It rained lightly and the blimp was grounded. I usually have an excellent memory, but I don't remember the concert as well as I wish. Ironically, as our designated driver, I was sober.
Pink Floyd will be listened to 100s of years into the future. Nice reaction ladies love the accents. Floyd were the first band to tour with quad sound in 1973.🙏🍁
Been to many 100s of concerts in the last 50+ years, no other band had the PA that Pink Floyd did, when I saw them in 75/77 that had 5 channel before anyone else. Hearing that music from 5 distinct channels while sitting next to the mixer island was breathtaking, we were freaking out it was so good.
This is the song I have as no1 in history of music. Was 38 years ago I heard it for the first time at 13 years of age. Still listen. Still cry. Listen to the Pompeii 2016 (when David Gilmour are 70) and understand history. All time high! Thanks for listening. You are all nice gals!
For viewers new to this song, the conversation at the beginning is between a doctor and his rock star patient. The doctor gives him an injection so that he's able to perform at his next show.
In the studio version of this song, I prefer the first solo over the second solo......but here the second solo gets me super emotional for some reason and it's just perfection.
Probably the greatest live version of probably THE best song ever committed to record. Dave Gilmour doesn't use amps, he plugs his guitar into his SOUL
Well, it’s obvious that she sits at the cool kids table, and that her friend was raised proper. Also, I would like to state that you guys did not pose or interrupt David Gilmour solo because that is considered a is unforgivable no no. You guys did good. Also the next reaction from Pink Floyd you should do it’s from the same concert. The song is called High Hopes David Gilmour uses a slide guitar also known as a lap guitar and it is absolutely phenomenal. I think that we would all love to see your response to that one and for her to say all the kids listen to it at school at lunchtime is very heartwarming considering this band originated in the 60s and became extremely popular in the 70s.
The idea that interrupting a guitar solo -- especially one by David Gilmour -- is sacrilege is silly. A person can listen to basically any song at any time through the internet. The purpose of RVCs - Reaction Video Channels -- is to REACT to songs. Or movies. Or whatever. Viewers of RVCs want to see and hear the reactions of the hosts. Especially when they are listening and reacting to a standout portion of a song. Including the 2nd guitar solo of Comfortably Numb. We want to hear them voice the emotion that they are feeling at the time that they are feeling it. That's the joy of these RVCs, especially to those of us who were in our youth at the time that songs like Comfortably Numb were originally released. And Fragile by Yes. And Rocky Mountain Way by Joe Walsh. I have seen many RVC hosts break down in tears when listening to Hotel California or Time or Stairway To Heaven or Dogs. I want to hear them express in words what they are experiencing. Not every time. It is nice to hear the entire guitar solo. Of course. But again -- these RVCs are not radio. Or UA-cam Music. They are REACTION Video Channels. The main draw is witnessing people -- the younger generation -- react to music that those of us have experienced it already already know is mind-blowing. We anticipate what is coming and enjoy seeing the emotional reaction of the hosts when the epic part of the song hits. We want to hear verbally what they are feeling internally. The looks on their faces and tears on their cheeks say a lot. And is enough sometimes. But to hear them express in words what they are feeling is the epitome of what are RVCs.
David Gilmour is a man who can let his guitar sing with emotion. This is the best guitarsolo ever. When he plays everybody was in trance. Nobody in the crowd was moving, their just listen to the guitar singing.
Gotta remember this was in 1994. I seen this concert in Foxboro MA when it came through the states. I could easily believe here we are 30yrs later and this stage, music, lights the whole production is still captivating people
Anything from this 1994 Pulse concert tour by Pink Floyd is at least equivalent to almost any other bands Grand finale!! When Pink Floyd does a live concert they don't just put on a show they pull you into a completely different universe!! I've seen them four times live in three different decades and nobody puts on a better show!! Try "Sorrow" "Wish You Were Here" or even "Shine On You Crazy Diamond"! From the same show and get ready!!
One of those rare bands who, at the original height of their fame, the vast majority of people knew none of the members' names or what anybody in the band looked like. This was somewhat on purpose on the band's part, and certainly added to the mystique. Over the years, they became more public. It's hard to be that big for that long and do that much press without people figuring out who you are. Of course, one of the key original members of the band, bassist, vocalist and composer Roger Waters, was gone from the band by this point, something I kinda wish wouldn't have happened, but I never begrudged the other three guys with what they did with the band afterwards, and this was always kind of David Gilmour's showpiece...
Hi Kathy Lulu and Donna. I'm.Marshall and I'm from Scotland 🏴. I love your reactions to Pink Floyd but there was something wrong. You listened to the wrong Comfortably Numb video. You listened to the shortened version of it. Please please please watch the full uncut version at Pulse abd you will see the greatest guitar solo of all time. I also advise you to watch On the Turning Away from their 1988 concert at the Nassau Coliseum in New York. I swear it will blow you away. David Gilmour is a God on the guitar, and the backing singers are awesome. Please check them out. You don't know what your missing girls. You will love them, I promise you
David Gilmour is a surgeon!! He uses his instrument to reach into your chest and gives your heart a gentle squeeze! The will never be another Pink Floyd. To understand one interpretation of the song please listen/watch the version from the movie 'The Wall'. Most can agree that the song is about isolation, withdrawal and blocking out reality.
This song was written by Roger Waters, an original member of the band who's not on the stage here, about when he was a young boy and really sick. Pink Floyd has always been a band witn an amazing light show for decades. Time, Money, Learning to Fly, Run Like Hell and Another Brick in the Wall from this same concert are all good ones.
partly right. it's also about an experience he had on tour. they were getting ready to perform in Philadelphia when Roger had a terrible case of stomach cramps. the venue had a very shady doctor who gave him a shot of something that got him going but left him feeling very disconnected & barely able to complete the concert. when he went to a real doctor afterwards it turned out to be something truly life threatening.
Waters wrote the lyrics. Gilmour wrote the music (as well as the music for Run Like Hell) for his solo album that came out a year before The Wall but kept them off the album.
You can find David’s original demo of this on You Tube. He’s just humming the melody, the chorus wasn’t quite there yet, and of course the words weren’t either. Roger’s early lyrics to this were clumsy but the song was an evolution. But the melody, the way David sings that chorus, and of course those two guitar solos… this song was more of David’s baby than Roger’s
NEW SUBSCRIBER HERE TY FOR UR REACTION!!!!! I LOVE PINK FLOYD SO MUCH IVE SEEN THEM BACK IN 87 ?DELICATE SOUND OF THUNDER TOUR. I AM OLD SO CANT REMEMBER THE YEAR BUT I SAW THEM LOL!!!
A month ago, during your reaction to Freebird by Lynyrd Skynyrd, I suggested these two songs: - Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb (PULSE Restored & Re-Edited) - Pink Floyd - On the Turning Away Remastered 2019 - UA-cam Now that Comfortably Numb is done, you need to see “On the Turning Away”. I am convinced that you will love this song. Looking forward to seeing you react to Pink Floyd again.
This song, as well as Stairway to Heaven, will be played very loudly at my funeral, which is probably not too far away right now, as the emphysema is starting to get severe. Years of smoking along with years of singing Blues/Rock have taken their toll on this old man. But what a song and what a band. But hey, it's been a great life growing up with this music.
“I was expecting, that they really rocking” and three seconds later the most transcendent guitar solo in the history of rock begins... yes, that's life
I spent many an hour or two, listening to Pink Floyd, just sprawled on the floor with headphones on in the dark letting the music just flow through me and absorbing it.
Really enjoyed your reaction to this classic!! I was fortunate to see Pink Floyd on this Pulse tour in 1994 at The Alamodome in San Antonio. I had 18th row seats on the floor, and there were 47,000 fans there. Had also previously seen them in 1988 in Austin. I definitely recommend from this same Pulse tour the song "High Hopes".
I was at that concert (and 2 others they did at that venue that week) and that song was their 2nd encore. By the time they got this song, they had been playing for 2 and a quarter hours.
Pink Floyd is my favorite band and I know everyone gives praise to David Gilmour and he clearly deserves it. However, a lot of people in these specific reaction videos don’t talk about drummer Nick Mason enough. He’s my favorite member of the band and I see him as the more quiet member over keyboardist Richard Wright. Nick's drumming is very clean, has the right amount of tone and power, and a good amount of balance in calmness and energy. He was 50 at the time of this show and 79 now, but he still has the same energy level as when the songs first came out. Watch him play the intro to “Time” from this same concert and see why I admire him.
My farther was a Pink Floyd fan and I have a love for their music after hearing it in many car journeys as a child but he did say that their live shows were out of this world. I believe the top of the disco ball eventually opens up on another video that had a different camera angle if I remember correctly
Pink Floyd: Expanding Human Consciousness for over 50 years now...I was blessed to see them 5 times, starting in Frankfurt Germany in 1977, when The Animals album debuted. Watching the Pig fly thru the indoor stadium was epic! The 4 way tab of Window Pane certainly helped the trip!!!
Some can play instruments with great technical ability and there are those who can play with emotion and David Gilmour is one of those greats who you can really feel his music as he masterfully plays the guitar. A Pink Floyd show is an event and a happening.
Every Album tells a story and every track is a chapter Pink Floyd are my all time favourite band, I saw them live about a dozen times and they never fail to amaze
Well, having been lucky enough to have been there, I can assure you that it was on the far side of epic as an experience. Watching the entire concert is well worth your time. Comfortably Numb was the first song in the encore ~ and there were so many gems before it. The whole thing was certainly something I’ll never, ever forget.
1:08 I guess she saw you in the corner of her eyes. I never got really into Pink Floyd,but when i worked in radio,a co-worker had theyr as his absolute favourite band,i mean he worshipped them. So i defintly heard alot of theyr music,as he would put them into our playlists whenever he could. He even got to interview them in person,wich made him go through the roof. He had every collectible imaginable of them at home,including every album,single they had released. So i would say thanks to my co-worker,i actually know of them. And then someone in the family gave me theyr best of album in a birthday present or something. Not the CD that has been the most played by me,but for those days where i need something calm and relaxing in the background,i defintly will consider them. 🙂
The stages for this Pulse tour in 1994 were so complex and took so long to set up that they actually had three different stages in rotation so that they could get a head start setting up the next tour location. A truly amazing concert! BTW, the semicircle and circle that make the "eye" you are describing are actually two big video screens and things are displayed on them during the concert. The circle one is on cables as you saw it tilted to hover above David Gilmore during his solo.
The fact that Lulu knew it was a disco ball is great. Awesome reaction ladies! That second guitar solo was the greatest solo in live performance history. David Gilmour pours his heart and soul into it and creates a masterpiece for all time.
I just paused to type this after the first verse and small guitar solo. The grandmother "gets it". The mom is trying to......thus far. I can't wait to see their expressions as it progresses.
Pink Floyd were David Gilmore guitarist/vocals, Roger Waters bassist/vocals , Richard Wright keyboards/vocals and Nick Mason drums/ percussion. Saw them many decades ago at the Oakland Arena for the Animal’s tour Great show
Please note, I said the word were when explaining the original members and please note again I really don’t care about the other bassist. Have a great day.
Pink floyd are the best of british rock groups i think you all would love the "LIVE 8" performance also "Another brick in the wall" they had superb albums "The wall" & "Dark side of the moon"...Also you could do what not many/hardly any other reaction channels are yet to do & check out another superb u.k multi million album selling rock group "MARRILION" with world class guitarist STEVE ROTHERY try "Forgotten sons" & "A script for a jesters tear"!🙂.
LATE COMMENT: As someone with chronic neuromuscular pain, this is the PF song that means the most to me. It was written by Roger Waters after having an experience after being given a pain injection right before going on stage for abdominal pain which later was diagnosed as hepatitis. The first time I saw this concert on TV my legs actually got weak and my jaw dropped. To get a true vision of the meaning of this song watch the movie "The Wall". One thing about Pink Floyd is that just listening to them and laying back can be a form of pain relief.
I have been to hundreds of concerts in my life, and Pink Floyd was by far the best one I ever seen. 1994 pulse. They have set the bar so high, I don't think anyone can ever come close to it. Thank you David Gilmore.
David Gilmore is a guitar virtuoso. A lot of people consider this to be his greatest work. I love it, but there are 2 others that I love even more. Money, and my all time favorite Pink Floyd song, Time.
that disco ball was 6 metres wide by all accounts, it was great watching you all enjoy especially your daughter, great to see someone so young enjoying pink floyd and she says all her friends play floyds music ,nothing will ever toch this for sound and vision as we know it and to think it was 40 years ago ...watching and listening t'yall in Liverpool, England, home of the Beatles, if you've ever heard of them 😊
Great Gig In The Sky...It is the studio version that has the great Clare Torry who set the standard that every singer wants to reach. The story behind how she came to be there and then just up and left after only 2 takes not knowing even if they liked it , is worth looking into. She had a date and didn't want to be there. She later sued and won for writing credit because she had to improvise with no lyrics.
The concert version with Sam Browne singing is exquisite. With "God's Guitarist" Sir David Gilmour on the slide and that piano intro...its just sublime.
Absolutely love your reactions to all clips you've played but you really need to view Run Like Hell which is the finale to the concert cos if you like the lights then the finale won't disapoint, Trust me 👍🇬🇧🇺🇸 Ps, I was at this gig, hard to believe it was 30 years ago, Regards Todd
This solo will be played on repeat in heaven. Just perfection.
Agreed
How about Mark Knopfler? 😊
@@xxxinfinityify brothers in arms live at the mandela 1988 concert
Agreed...God will listen.
@@xxxinfinityify Knopfler is magic too
You have just listened to what many regard as the greatest live guitar solo in music history. Same concert...Coming Back To Life, Sorrow, Wish You Were Here, Shine On You Crazy Diamond, High Hopes, Run Like Hell...just do the entire concert.
I'd go along with that,I picked up a guitar 45 years ago thanks to David Gilmour. Pink Floyd 4 ever.
This song, evh eruption solo, Jimi hendrix machine gun band of gypsies. My top 3 solos of all time.
Nope, the solo on this version is better 🙂
ua-cam.com/video/LTseTg48568/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared
I was at that performance in London
It is also David's finest vocal performance.
I was in the crowd on the night this was recorded. Yes, it was every bit as incredible as you are imagining it, only more so. I feel privileged to have been witness to what is widely regarded as one of the finest live guitar solo performance of all time.🔥🎸 David Gilmore is just on another level.
I was there at Earls Court in London , when we left we also felt Comfortable Numb after such a show.
Awesome
I am jealous. I wasn't there.
I saw them twice, 40,000ish people each time. It is sad that I will never get to experience that again, and that people who are just discovering Pink Floyd will never have the opportunity to see them live.
I still think Is There Anybody Out There has the better solo.
I like to think the Comfortably Numb solos of this era were Gilmour's response to his friend Douglas Adams referencing Mark Knopfler as the ultimate Fender Strat player in Hitchhiker's Guide.
Lulu has the groove. Nice.
Whole Pulse concert is top level!
It's funny that Lulu knew the most about Pink Floyd. There's hope for the next generation.
I'm 18 and I am a huge Pink Floyd fan
@@vippi1 your parents raised you right.
I'm 35, and it is my dad and my favorite band of all time
Brit here. I was there at Earls Court on the recording of this......Fantastic.
Lulu Rocks! Great reaction.
Thanks
Brilliant reaction, ladies!
Greatest solo in history. Peace
One thing about PINK FLOYD is that they are master musicians and they hold the best lightshow in rock n roll great reaction great song keep on rocking!!! 🤟
LuLu is awesome😂
It's heart warming seeing you three ladies sharing time together listening to music. The world needs this. Beautiful!!
Thank you so much!
Now that was fun! I love seeing people hearing and seeing Pink Floyd for the first time. Reminds me of my experience in the early 70'.
Thanks
That lunch table has to be the most coolest

Congratulations Ladies you’ve seen/listened to the greatest guitar solo on one of the best tracks from master musicians
It was Nice to see three generation reacting on this concert! 🤩✨ I always Got teary eyes when i listen to this particular Pink Floyd concert.. 🥹 Man!… That was a Genius concert❣️😍 I really hope you have shown this concert to your (grandma’s husband, daughter’s father and grandchild’s grandpa”! 😃 I wish i could see his reaction too.. 😄
That large ball behind them actually turns into a huge movie screen that they can show videos on.
Cool
The glitterball was originally a flower at the back of the stage that opened up its petals in earlier gigs. And they do use flowers a lot in their stage videos to represent the life cycle. Been going to their gigs since the mid 60s when they were supporting Jimi Hendrix right up to this run of gigs at Earls Court, where I attended 6 nights of a 13 night run.

Also, Lulu, you mentioned you get to choose songs sometimes at your gathering at school. I am curious what you choose when you get the chance.
David Gilmour live at Gdansk Echoes. The keyboardist, Richard Wright's last live performance.
The perfect family to get a 3 generation perspective on a great song titled High Hopes from the same Pulse concert.
There is hope for our planet when the youngest is the biggest Pink Floyd fan!!!!!
I saw Pink Floyd on this very concert tour in May 1994 at the old Foxboro Stadium in Massachusetts. It was an incredible experience. I will never forget that concert as long as I live. This concert footage was from later that year, at the end of the tour, in October of 1994 at Earls Court in London.
Lucky you
I was there, too! Nothing like a Floyd show...
I was there! They did two shows at Foxboro. They opened with Astronomy Domine, which I hadn't heard before, and a whole new world opened up! I also saw Roger Waters The Wall many years later and completed the pilgrimage. This band was hands down the most intelligent, perfectionist one - music, lyrics, lighting, they knew how to put on a show.

What are the greatest rock albums of the history and you're just getting to listen to it now is a remarkable me than you've ever heard this before
1) I can’t believe what Im hearing
2) I’m just hearing
3) I know exactly what Im hearing
🤣🤣🤣
I saw this show in MA twice over a weekend. I've been to hundreds of concerts over the years and this is still one of my favorites!!
Pink Floyd will be listened to 100s of years into the future. Nice reaction ladies love the accents. Floyd were the first band to tour with quad sound in 1973.🙏🍁
Thanks
Been to many 100s of concerts in the last 50+ years, no other band had the PA that Pink Floyd did, when I saw them in 75/77 that had 5 channel before anyone else. Hearing that music from 5 distinct channels while sitting next to the mixer island was breathtaking, we were freaking out it was so good.
Just one of most successful, enduring and biggest selling music groups ever. Easily in the top 5 of all time.
This is the song I have as no1 in history of music. Was 38 years ago I heard it for the first time at 13 years of age. Still listen. Still cry. Listen to the Pompeii 2016 (when David Gilmour are 70) and understand history. All time high! Thanks for listening. You are all nice gals!
For viewers new to this song, the conversation at the beginning is between a doctor and his rock star patient. The doctor gives him an injection so that he's able to perform at his next show.
Well done, that’s what I call being concise and precise at the same time.
The Vari-Lite stage lighting system. Phil Collins was an early investor when the first crude prototype was demo'd to him in 1981.
Pink Floyd,LEGEND. Always so deep an great lyrics. Cant go roung whit PF. Thanks y,all from 🇮🇹🇧🇪🇪🇺 thats Europe.
In the studio version of this song, I prefer the first solo over the second solo......but here the second solo gets me super emotional for some reason and it's just perfection.
Grandma was surely feeling nostalgic . I'm sure she was remembering her old time and old music of her time. Purely magical Pink Floyd.
Probably the greatest live version of probably THE best song ever committed to record. Dave Gilmour doesn't use amps, he plugs his guitar into his SOUL
The Greatest Guitar Solo EVER Layed Down

Especially when they are listening and reacting to a standout portion of a song. Including the 2nd guitar solo of Comfortably Numb. We want to hear them voice the emotion that they are feeling at the time that they are feeling it. That's the joy of these RVCs, especially to those of us who were in our youth at the time that songs like Comfortably Numb were originally released. And Fragile by Yes. And Rocky Mountain Way by Joe Walsh. I have seen many RVC hosts break down in tears when listening to Hotel California or Time or Stairway To Heaven or Dogs. I want to hear them express in words what they are experiencing. Not every time. It is nice to hear the entire guitar solo. Of course. But again -- these RVCs are not radio. Or UA-cam Music. They are REACTION Video Channels. The main draw is witnessing people -- the younger generation -- react to music that those of us have experienced it already already know is mind-blowing. We anticipate what is coming and enjoy seeing the emotional reaction of the hosts when the epic part of the song hits. We want to hear verbally what they are feeling internally. The looks on their faces and tears on their cheeks say a lot. And is enough sometimes. But to hear them express in words what they are feeling is the epitome of what are RVCs.
Lulu should add a picture of David Gilmour alongside her goat. Then she can have pictures of 2 Goats.
Lol
David Gilmour is a man who can let his guitar sing with emotion. This is the best guitarsolo ever. When he plays everybody was in trance. Nobody in the crowd was moving, their just listen to the guitar singing.
Gotta remember this was in 1994. I seen this concert in Foxboro MA when it came through the states. I could easily believe here we are 30yrs later and this stage, music, lights the whole production is still captivating people
Anything from this 1994 Pulse concert tour by Pink Floyd is at least equivalent to almost any other bands Grand finale!! When Pink Floyd does a live concert they don't just put on a show they pull you into a completely different universe!! I've seen them four times live in three different decades and nobody puts on a better show!!
Try "Sorrow" "Wish You Were Here" or even "Shine On You Crazy Diamond"! From the same show and get ready!!
Added it to the list.
And this wasn’t even the finale to this concert!
@@mikewatts867 TRUE !!!!
It was the Division Bell tour
Don’t forget ‘Echoes”!
loved your reaction, wonderfull, much love from lisbon in portugal. I saw them live in 94 for the same concert
You just witnessed one of the best stage performances and best guitar solo of all time.
One of those rare bands who, at the original height of their fame, the vast majority of people knew none of the members' names or what anybody in the band looked like. This was somewhat on purpose on the band's part, and certainly added to the mystique. Over the years, they became more public. It's hard to be that big for that long and do that much press without people figuring out who you are. Of course, one of the key original members of the band, bassist, vocalist and composer Roger Waters, was gone from the band by this point, something I kinda wish wouldn't have happened, but I never begrudged the other three guys with what they did with the band afterwards, and this was always kind of David Gilmour's showpiece...
That kids head sways like an out of time metronome 😂😂😂
The greatest band ever! Great reaction ! Love and prayers to everyone
Hi Kathy Lulu and Donna. I'm.Marshall and I'm from Scotland 🏴. I love your reactions to Pink Floyd but there was something wrong. You listened to the wrong Comfortably Numb video. You listened to the shortened version of it. Please please please watch the full uncut version at Pulse abd you will see the greatest guitar solo of all time. I also advise you to watch On the Turning Away from their 1988 concert at the Nassau Coliseum in New York. I swear it will blow you away. David Gilmour is a God on the guitar, and the backing singers are awesome. Please check them out. You don't know what your missing girls. You will love them, I promise you
Great reaction the look on your faces when the disco ball done it thing 😀👍and swaying to music always a good sign you got into it
Thank you so much 😁
I never get tired of this performance.
Me too. I have listened this song maybe more than 1000 times. I am 64 years old and Pink Floyd fan as long as I remember.
David Gilmour is a surgeon!! He uses his instrument to reach into your chest and gives your heart a gentle squeeze! The will never be another Pink Floyd. To understand one interpretation of the song please listen/watch the version from the movie 'The Wall'. Most can agree that the song is about isolation, withdrawal and blocking out reality.
Ĺulu is really into this, her body sway says it all. They are all engrossed.
I was at that concert when it was performed in the United States. It wasn't just a concert, it was an experience of light, sound and music.
Cool
This song was written by Roger Waters, an original member of the band who's not on the stage here, about when he was a young boy and really sick.
Pink Floyd has always been a band witn an amazing light show for decades.
Time, Money, Learning to Fly, Run Like Hell and Another Brick in the Wall from this same concert are all good ones.
partly right. it's also about an experience he had on tour. they were getting ready to perform in Philadelphia when Roger had a terrible case of stomach cramps. the venue had a very shady doctor who gave him a shot of something that got him going but left him feeling very disconnected & barely able to complete the concert. when he went to a real doctor afterwards it turned out to be something truly life threatening.
Waters wrote the lyrics. Gilmour wrote the music (as well as the music for Run Like Hell) for his solo album that came out a year before The Wall but kept them off the album.
You can find David’s original demo of this on You Tube. He’s just humming the melody, the chorus wasn’t quite there yet, and of course the words weren’t either. Roger’s early lyrics to this were clumsy but the song was an evolution. But the melody, the way David sings that chorus, and of course those two guitar solos… this song was more of David’s baby than Roger’s
Kathy, loved watching your facial expressions as the song went on and your appreciation seemed to grow!
Thanks
DAVID GILMOUR...EPIC guitar solo 👏👏👏
NEW SUBSCRIBER HERE TY FOR UR REACTION!!!!! I LOVE PINK FLOYD SO MUCH IVE SEEN THEM BACK IN 87 ?DELICATE SOUND OF THUNDER TOUR. I AM OLD SO CANT REMEMBER THE YEAR BUT I SAW THEM LOL!!!
Thanks for subbing!
Floyd is chill music. My favorite from this concert is high hopes. David Gilmore is on the guitar 🎸
A month ago, during your reaction to Freebird by Lynyrd Skynyrd, I suggested these two songs:
- Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb (PULSE Restored & Re-Edited)
- Pink Floyd - On the Turning Away Remastered 2019 - UA-cam
Now that Comfortably Numb is done, you need to see “On the Turning Away”.
I am convinced that you will love this song. Looking forward to seeing you react to Pink Floyd again.
They're on the list.
@@KathyLuluandDonna Yes, I second watching "On the Turning Away" live. Impossible not to be moved watching it.
This song, as well as Stairway to Heaven, will be played very loudly at my funeral, which is probably not too far away right now, as the emphysema is starting to get severe. Years of smoking along with years of singing Blues/Rock have taken their toll on this old man. But what a song and what a band. But hey, it's been a great life growing up with this music.
This song is on the album called The Wall. The most iconic song they've ever produced ❤
“I was expecting, that they really rocking”
and three seconds later the most transcendent guitar solo in the history of rock begins... yes, that's life
I spent many an hour or two, listening to Pink Floyd, just sprawled on the floor with headphones on in the dark letting the music just flow through me and absorbing it.
A beautiful performance of a very beautiful song. It’s almost like being gently drawn into another world.
Always been one of my favorites. Nice seeing three generations thinking it's wonderful 😆
Really enjoyed your reaction to this classic!! I was fortunate to see Pink Floyd on this Pulse tour in 1994 at The Alamodome in San Antonio. I had 18th row seats on the floor, and there were 47,000 fans there. Had also previously seen them in 1988 in Austin. I definitely recommend from this same Pulse tour the song "High Hopes".
Thanks! Added it to our list.
I was at that concert (and 2 others they did at that venue that week) and that song was their 2nd encore. By the time they got this song, they had been playing for 2 and a quarter hours.
Pink Floyd is my favorite band and I know everyone gives praise to David Gilmour and he clearly deserves it. However, a lot of people in these specific reaction videos don’t talk about drummer Nick Mason enough. He’s my favorite member of the band and I see him as the more quiet member over keyboardist Richard Wright. Nick's drumming is very clean, has the right amount of tone and power, and a good amount of balance in calmness and energy. He was 50 at the time of this show and 79 now, but he still has the same energy level as when the songs first came out. Watch him play the intro to “Time” from this same concert and see why I admire him.
In my late 60's, this is the soundtrack of my early years.. Epic!
This is one of my all time favorite songs...and this is definitely my favorite guitar solo! David Gilmour is a maestro on the guitar!
My farther was a Pink Floyd fan and I have a love for their music after hearing it in many car journeys as a child but he did say that their live shows were out of this world. I believe the top of the disco ball eventually opens up on another video that had a different camera angle if I remember correctly
Welcome to the universe Pink Floyd, the Best band in the history of Progressive Rock.
I NEVER get tired of this song and video. My all time favorite
Pink Floyd: Expanding Human Consciousness for over 50 years now...I was blessed to see them 5 times, starting in Frankfurt Germany in 1977, when The Animals album debuted. Watching the Pig fly thru the indoor stadium was epic! The 4 way tab of Window Pane certainly helped the trip!!!
I bet that was awesome.
Some can play instruments with great technical ability and there are those who can play with emotion and David Gilmour is one of those greats who you can really feel his music as he masterfully plays the guitar. A Pink Floyd show is an event and a happening.
The album " ANIMALS " by Pink Floyd is great. 🐖 🐕 🐑
Every Album tells a story and every track is a chapter
Pink Floyd are my all time favourite band, I saw them live about a dozen times and they never fail to amaze
Well, having been lucky enough to have been there, I can assure you that it was on the far side of epic as an experience. Watching the entire concert is well worth your time. Comfortably Numb was the first song in the encore ~ and there were so many gems before it. The whole thing was certainly something I’ll never, ever forget.
1:08 I guess she saw you in the corner of her eyes. I never got really into Pink Floyd,but when i worked in radio,a co-worker had theyr as his absolute favourite band,i mean he worshipped them. So i defintly heard alot of theyr music,as he would put them into our playlists whenever he could. He even got to interview them in person,wich made him go through the roof. He had every collectible imaginable of them at home,including every album,single they had released.
So i would say thanks to my co-worker,i actually know of them. And then someone in the family gave me theyr best of album in a birthday present or something. Not the CD that has been the most played by me,but for those days where i need something calm and relaxing in the background,i defintly will consider them. 🙂
The stages for this Pulse tour in 1994 were so complex and took so long to set up that they actually had three different stages in rotation so that they could get a head start setting up the next tour location. A truly amazing concert! BTW, the semicircle and circle that make the "eye" you are describing are actually two big video screens and things are displayed on them during the concert. The circle one is on cables as you saw it tilted to hover above David Gilmore during his solo.
Thanks for the information.
Respect from Geordieland England pink Floyd one of the greatest bands of all time
when that white light blast from the stage you feel the heat throughout the building
The fact that Lulu knew it was a disco ball is great. Awesome reaction ladies! That second guitar solo was the greatest solo in live performance history. David Gilmour pours his heart and soul into it and creates a masterpiece for all time.
Thank you
You're very welcome! :)@@KathyLuluandDonna
I like to think of it as a butterfly chrysalis and as it opens we see that gorgeous butterfly emerge. A fit symbol for life in all it's glory.
I just paused to type this after the first verse and small guitar solo. The grandmother "gets it". The mom is trying to......thus far. I can't wait to see their expressions as it progresses.
Pink Floyd were David Gilmore guitarist/vocals, Roger Waters bassist/vocals , Richard Wright keyboards/vocals and Nick Mason drums/ percussion. Saw them many decades ago at the Oakland Arena for the Animal’s tour Great show
Please note that Roger Waters had left the band 10 years before this concert. Guy Pratt was thre bassist here
Please note, I said the word were when explaining the original members and please note again I really don’t care about the other bassist. Have a great day.
Pink floyd are the best of british rock groups i think you all would love the "LIVE 8" performance also "Another brick in the wall" they had superb albums "The wall" & "Dark side of the moon"...Also you could do what not many/hardly any other reaction channels are yet to do & check out another superb u.k multi million album selling rock group "MARRILION" with world class guitarist STEVE ROTHERY try "Forgotten sons" & "A script for a jesters tear"!🙂.
LATE COMMENT: As someone with chronic neuromuscular pain, this is the PF song that means the most to me. It was written by Roger Waters after having an experience after being given a pain injection right before going on stage for abdominal pain which later was diagnosed as hepatitis. The first time I saw this concert on TV my legs actually got weak and my jaw dropped. To get a true vision of the meaning of this song watch the movie "The Wall". One thing about Pink Floyd is that just listening to them and laying back can be a form of pain relief.
Finally one of these reviews noticed the staging/light show as well as the incredible performance.
I have been to hundreds of concerts in my life, and Pink Floyd was by far the best one I ever seen. 1994 pulse.
They have set the bar so high, I don't think anyone can ever come close to it.
Thank you David Gilmore.
David Gilmore is a guitar virtuoso. A lot of people consider this to be his greatest work. I love it, but there are 2 others that I love even more. Money, and my all time favorite Pink Floyd song, Time.
One of he most breath taking live solos ever .
that disco ball was 6 metres wide by all accounts, it was great watching you all enjoy especially your daughter, great to see someone so young enjoying pink floyd and she says all her friends play floyds music ,nothing will ever toch this for sound and vision as we know it and to think it was 40 years ago ...watching and listening t'yall in Liverpool, England, home of the Beatles, if you've ever heard of them 😊
Thanks for the info!
Great Gig In The Sky...It is the studio version that has the great Clare Torry who set the standard that every singer wants to reach. The story behind how she came to be there and then just up and left after only 2 takes not knowing even if they liked it , is worth looking into. She had a date and didn't want to be there. She later sued and won for writing credit because she had to improvise with no lyrics.
The concert version with Sam Browne singing is exquisite. With "God's Guitarist" Sir David Gilmour on the slide and that piano intro...its just sublime.
Absolutely love your reactions to all clips you've played but you really need to view Run Like Hell which is the finale to the concert cos if you like the lights then the finale won't disapoint, Trust me 👍🇬🇧🇺🇸 Ps, I was at this gig, hard to believe it was 30 years ago,
Regards
Todd
