Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb - pulse concert performance 1994 

I was fortunate enough to be at this concert 20th October 1994 with my late wife, wonderful bitter sweet memories 😁

My wife and I were there for that tour. The whole crowd of 10s of thousands were silent in awe. It was unbelievable.

Probably the most emotional guitar player put on this earth.

I’ve heard it countless times, and still fight back the tears.

The greatest guitar solo of all time... Absolutely EPIC!

THE greatest live rock guitar solo in the history of human existence, period.

Doctor: "I'm afraid you only have 5 minutes to live" Me: _"ok well, I'll listen to Comfortably Numb"_ Doctor: "but that's 6 minutes..." God: *_I shall allow it._*

There were a lot of great rock guitarists in the 60's through the 90's. Some much faster than David Gilmour, some flashier; but I've never heard anyone that can touch your soul like this man. Couple that with the great songwriting and wonderful production and you had something much greater than your typical concert; more like a religious experience. Glad you can still enjoy it!

I've listened to this song hundreds of times over the past 2 decades and always come to the same, goosebumbed, conclusion. Greatest Guitarist of all-time, playing the greatest solo of all-time, on the greatest song of all-time, with the greatest band of all-time.The crowd sits in awe!

I'm 59 years old and it brings tears to my eyes just to see you young people seeing the music of my day. Back then they played and lived the music

He took an already impossible riff and made it heavenly.These notes make me cry,too.

It's a perfect masterpiece.

I always tear up when I see these reactions to this - firstly because the emotion in the end guitar solo is just incredible, secondly because I was there at London Earl's Court when this show was recorded and watching these reactions brings back the memory of one of the best experiences of my life

Crying is an essential element in the experience.

Anyone that was at Earls Court that night can consider themselves the luckiest people on the planet ... You are inducted into special order of Floyd Knights forever! Never before or since will anyone top this performance ...

I've been a life long fan of Pink Floyd. They are the greatest band ever. Of all time.

This will be played and replayed til the end of human history

The solo has all feelings human beings can get. " love, hate, sad, happy, fear, tear smile, crying, sacrifice, respect, romantic........"

I actually saw this live (was lucky - and old - enough to see them 3 times). Standing there amongst the audience ... the WOW-factor is beyond the charts. I saw their Pulse-concert on an open air venue but the sound was still CD-quality ... unheard of at the time ... Anyway, cheers for giving this a go and very pleased you liked it ... for me, there is nothing to compare it to. Regarding tears, everytime I listen to this, tears flow. To put it into perspective ... 59 year old guy from BE who has been a PF-nerd since the first listen of Dark Side of the Moon.

There will never be another band that can match Pink Floyd's production level. Every song has lights that literally change with the music. They carefully structure the lights to magnify and amplify the emotion in the music. Pink Floyd concerts are not performances they are experiences. There will never be another like them

definetly best guitare solo of all the time

The worst part of this solo is the fact that it ended.

I was another one of the lucky ones to be there and it was one of the best days of my life and that song still makes the hairs on my body stand on end

When Pink and Floyd collided, the universe of sound was created.

The amazing thing for me is when the last note is struck, if you are wearing headphones, you can hear a distinct echo through the hall, displaying the power of the sound system that is just spine tingling. I have had the privilege of seeing Pink Floyd twice in my life. Both times this song was part of the show, and both times I was left emotionally drained by its ability to touch my soul.

I was at this same show in New Orleans. Closest thing to a religious experience I ever had. My second time seeing Pink Floyd!

Gilmour: Just another day at the office. Rest of planet: OMG!

Thank You Kristin! This performance is totally Flawless! Best quitar solo in history of music. 💟. Have a nice day Sugar Pie! 💝

Loved your reaction! I was lucky enough to go to that show and it was incredible!

The next song on the pulse video is "run like hell", its the last song of the concert so gilmour goes full on , the lighting is extreme and it is a fun song to watch and listen, its worth your time to react to it. Your reaction when the disco ball appeared made me so happy to see a young one discovering pink floyd

There is music, and there is song, and then there is... Pink Floyd! I was at this concert in Earls Court 1994 Best move I ever made, best thing I ever witnessed...I have a great story to tell about this concert, one day I just might tell it.

I was so lucky to see pink Floyd live and this specific show in Mexico and if you have the opportunity to watch the show fully, you will be amazed because is just incredible, THE BEST SHOW ON EARTH FOR ME, great reaction, looooove it.

The whole concert back in `94, nearly 3 hours of my life I spent hypnotized on another planet.

This man on guitar is a god. Hes unatural. This will blow u away im 50 and just know understand

Pink Floyd music always takes you on a trip , destination musical heaven.

For me, this solo is like opening a door to the 67 years of pain I have stuffed inside me. The tears almost always come as I listen to it.

I was also fortunate to see this performed live in 1994. My brothers and I saw them at Three Rivers Stadium in Pittsburgh. As the solo was wrapping up, I look over at my youngest brother, and he's holding his head together so that it doesn't explode.

Hello from Australia. Hi, it's god to see young people (i'm 68) reacting to Pink Floyd, i have been a Floydy for 50 yrs now. i flew from Australia just for that concert,a life changing event. the second solo in this song the best soul touching solo ever. Dave Gilmour can make a guitar talk, sing and cry all at the same time. every Floyd album is a journey, and each track is a different road on that journey. i taught myself to play guitar after hearing, Wish You Were Here. and Comfortably Numb is the last song i play every night. enjoy your journey.

The celestial disco ball that opens up is actually my favorite part. And the round circular disc with the lights around it over the drums above is also a image screen that has various images projected on it depending on the song that is being played at the time and it to can move upright or downwards. Pink Floyd by far gave you the best visual show ever. I saw them in Anaheim during their animals album tour. I hitchhiked from El Paso, TX all the way there with 2 of my friends. This was in the early to mid eighties. Greatest show I ever saw.🎸🎤🎵

I liked the video even before you began 😇🤗 so so happy you do an reaction of this amazing song and one of the best solos ever! Thank you thank you so much @Kristin Kali ❤❤

I saw this same show in N.Y. 1994. The concert brochure said the stage is 120 feet wide. It takes a crew of 60 technicians three days to set up the entire lights and all. (over 1,200) The concert schedule required that there had to be three entire crews to keep up. They leap frogged each other for 92 shows with 20 Trucks per crew and a total staff of 195. The tour cost the promoters $98.MILLION to put on, but the total profit was $260 MILLION… I have seen Pink Floyd 4 times. I met David Gilmour in 1984 back stage at a concert in Hollywood Calif. He gave me a signed album that I have in my music room. We talked for 22 minutes. I called him…“The Master Of The Stratocaster” He smiled. I asked if I could shake both his hands that make such great guitar solos, he smiled bigger and said “Sure” and shock both hands at the same time, I smiled HUGE. I asked him to describe his technique of playing guitar, he replied… “I strike a note, bend it, shake it and then release it”…. Yes, he does that quite well.

I recommend watching the whole concert if not for reaction but for your own personal enjoyment. Trust me , you will not be disappointed. After this song comes another fantastic song called “ Run like hell “. Both of these songs are awesome.

From the same show,check out "Run Like Hell".It was the encore and the explosive ending is heartstopping. I jumped 4 feet in the air even though i was about 20 rows back from the front. A life-changing concert.

The best thing to come out of this for YOU. The most and best music ever recorded. Punk dudes in future never came close. But it is all you listen to. You kids have no idea

I saw this concert in Lisbon, in 22 of July 1994. The best concert i saw, no words to describe!!!!!

Pink Floyd is legend. Thank's Dave, Richard, and Nick. Sorry for Roger Waters fans 😎. Rest in peace Rick, i love you.

Saw them in 1988 - the light show was identical, one of those moments that stays with you for a lifetime. I remember little about 1988 but i remember every song and every light effect, and what it felt like from that entire show

pink floyd - dogs another one masterpiece guitar solo

Who could not like this song. i have been listening it since I was a teen in the early 80's. Thanks for the video.

Hi from Sweden! It was nice to share this with you here as I sat, as if loneliness just disappeared. Pure joy :-)

Thanks for reacting to this amica. I told you about this a couple of months ago. This is beautiful stuff and it never gets dated, even after 40 years! Enjoy! :-) Pietro

Do love me some Pink Floyd. The innovation of future songs after this, just from this band alone is so vast it spans over many genres. Amazing, I only wish I could have seen them in thier hay days.

Had to watch, again! I've seen this video SO many times, it's hard to believe that it's been around for 25yrs. Wow! And the look on your face, when the glitter ball opens...priceless. :o)

Floyd take you on a beautiful spiritual journey

Kristin, your correct that this is an EPIC example of Gilmore, Wright and Mason's tour. You should check out "HIGH HOPES" as well...wonderful song lyrics and guitar work by Gilmore. You won't be disappointed!

I was at two of the Earls Court shows when this was filmed, also saw Floyd in 1988 at Maine Road in Manchester and have seen David Gilmour on his solo tours at the Albert Hall in London, stunning live.

I love Pink Floyd greatest ever my opinion up and listen to it ever since I was younger I'm 58 years old we still love you thank you for your video so much

I cry every time I hear the second solo. It’s brilliant!

I too was at this concert and had tears rolling down my face, which is kind of embarrassing for a 30 years old guy. The girl next to me grabbed hold of me and held on because her legs had given way. I had to give her some water afterwards and help her sort herself out. She was so overcome with emotion. The whole concert was a truly unforgettable experience and every time I watch this I cry. I can't believe you paused it so many times to read comments and again 10 seconds from the end. Very bad habit girl.

MY FAVORITE SONG OF PINK FLOYD EVER 🔥🔥🔥👈👍❤☝🇺🇸 THANKS HOT STUFF 😘

I dont know how many times ive watched this video. I never get tired of the live version. Its absolutely beautiful

Pink Floyd is my all time favorite band since 1983. Yet I saw them in concert in 1988 and it was the worst concert I've ever been too, and none of it was Pink Floyd's fault. We had horrible seating and a guy O. D. right in front of us, it was hot as hell, I never heard one song they sang and have been bummed about it ever since. So I've made up for it by watching this Pulse concert and the 2005 reunion. David Gilmour is the reason guitar solos became my favorite thing about Rock music.

Pulse has got to be one--if not--THE best live concert ever put up. Everything is a sensory delight, and well put up! And couple that with PF, which is not just music but art--well you have a religious experience!

Hi Kristin..I follow pink Floyd's since early nineties. .it's the first time I've found a co-fans as beautiful as you are..especially when you got carried away..with close eyes..your smile. .your attention..your satisfaction to David's solo..it haunts me..

Holding back the tears is natural when listening to this solo i am 70 and it still brings me to tears listening to it every time.

If a DVD could get worn out, that would be my Pulse Live DVD......highly recommended that everyone buy it!

Hi Kristin am so rapt you finally got to this video..it truely is Epic. There are so many memorable tunes from this group there music will last a lifetime. Your reaction is the Best I've seen so far from this song and I've watched a few...love the emotion and honesty. 👏👌

Just an incredible song and utterly incredible solo from Dave Gilmour, even Alex Lifeson would doff his metaphorical hat, phenomenal indeed.

thank you for your reaction to this video ❤️...I grew up with pink Floyd. I really appreciate the heartfeltness you put into your videos and the sincerity of what you do

The whole concert was absolutely amazing I am 76;now and I still remember everything about it

Finally a live version plz do more live versions fm pluse or even Gilmour fm his live concerts they are mind blowing david is a guitar God 🎸🎸🎸💯💯💨💨🍻🥃♥️♥️

Epic is not a strong enough adjective. I was fortunate enough to be at the Dallas show on this tour. Words can't describe seeing it live.

You just caught a new subscriber. The look on your face when you realize what you were listening to is priceless. I love to see call beautiful woman appreciating good music

Saw at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse in 94....don't fret...brings a tear to my eye every time....if it does not you are NOT human.

Thank you Kristin I could see by your expression you weren’t expecting that glitter ball to open your right just a phenomenal piece of music history

I almost forgot to hear this solo today, thanks Kristin...!

Floyd? Numb? KLICK!!! 👌👌👌

Pink Floyd has always been my favorite band I got hooked in the mid-seventies I was fortunate enough to see them a few times in concert listening to Pink Floyd has always been a comfort for me. I had a pretty shity childhood so I fell back on listening to music especially Pink Floyd. David Nick and Rick we're nearly in their 70s right here. That alone is pretty impressive. There's something very special especially between David Gilmour and his fans I think it's a true love and respect David just recently sold hundreds of his guitars I'm not sure the amount I know it's black Stratocaster sold for 300 million and he donated everything to charity not only is he one of the best guitar players but he's one hell of a human being

Sister I have been listen9ng to it over 40 yrs!and it just doesn't get old.It almost feels like hearing it the first time,everytime!I find this feeling is amplified when I see someone's first time hearing it!I will feel in patron to get you to play some for me!!Yes,40yrs. and they still have that effect!Didn't know what you was missing..You still don't.Therw are so many songs with so many versions.Transverses time!

Just came across this because I love to listen to Pink Floyd. This was from the "Division Bell" tour in 1994, and while I was not at THIS concert, I was lucky enough to see the Rotterdam leg in the same year, in 1994, when I still lived in The Netherlands. I was 20 in 1994, and as a fan of classic rock.... the Pink Floyd albums of "Dark Side of the Moon" and "The Wall" belonged in every classic rock fan's collection, just like Michael Jackson's "Thriller" belongs in any pop fan's collection. Then a friend of mine asked me to come to this concert. He had gotten free tickets, as Volkswagen was the tour sponsor, and his father owned a VW dealership. That concert changed my music life. I have since bought virtually all Pink Floyd albums, and Pulse is definitely one of my favorites. Kristin, you have been touched by a Rock God with this particular version of the song, it is in my opinion the greatest guitar solo ever made. It is said that Leo Fender invented the Stratocaster guitar, and David Gilmour put a soul into it.

Don't hold them tears back...I get misty eyed EVERY.TIME. I hear this version of the song! Full-on chills up the spine. Indeed, probably one of the most amazing songs & guitar solos on display here. Yeah, the visuals are pretty stunning too!! (slight dose of sarcasm there! LOL)

Hey! I was the guy that commented about David reaching maximum power, great to see people still enjoy Floyd in 2019. You should react to Comfortably Numb Live at Pompeii in 2016, every Gilmour solo is unique.

Kristin I love this song ❤️

I’ve seen Pink Floyd’s Momentary Lapse of Reason concert in Germany in 1988 and it is still the best confer I’ve seen to date and I’ve been to lots of concerts

Already 25 years i saw this concert at Montreal Olympic Stadium and it's like yesterday. A lifetime experience, unfogettable !!

For once you are being introduced to an amazing band that take you on a trip a spiritual journey where the guitar talks with pure emotion and you finally left in a mellow state of confusion as to what you just really heard but its real and will reverberate around the world for future generations to experience the same as you did so happy you been blessed with Floyd Kristin x

❤️❤️❤️ Everytime i listen to this...no words.

SO glad i was there at Earls Court to witness this out-of-body experience. the night after the seating collapsed upstairs. STILL the greatest show I've ever seen.

We get emotional just watching you. It's incredible to see younger people watch and like "our" music.

Thanks for this react! Just a legendary artist with his buddies doing legendary work. I've wondered what of our musicians will still be talked about by average people in 200 years - maybe this?

IMO the best solo ever! Now you know why PF is my favorite band! You have done 2 of my PF top 5. I would suggest Time, album version and Echoes live at Pompeii next, they both have great Gilmour solos! You will love them! Thanks KK!

Loved it again. .hope u well n family kristin. :)

I had the privilege of seeing Floyd's Pulse tour in 1994 at Clemson Death Valley stadium in Clemson S.C. The experience was beyond memorable.

That disco ball was 2 stories tall. To watch it open up with that sound must have been scary in that arena. Also loved the red lights coming on making the crowd look like smoldering coals!

Your reactions were the same as mine when I first watched it 👌 Love your channel keep up the awesomeness 👍🤘❤

Great musicians and incredible guitar! Amazing reaction pretty Kristin 👏

Gute reaction und thank you for not stopping the video too often, und especially not during a Rock guitar solo like some peeps here ist always doing. Thumbs up und SUB'd ya. Have a fun day und stay safe in your Haus from COVID if ya can. Auf Wiedersehen von Wiesbaden Germany...smiles

I get chills every time I hear this

Just listen to Pink Floyd and you can go anywhere in the universe anytime you feel like it.

Beautiful. Thank you hon!
