Comfortably Numb - Pink Floyd (LIVE) Pulse. 11 Year Old Reacts

[@guidosarducci]

"It lasted a very long time...but not long enough..." The absolute best reaction ever.......

[@jimralston7562]

That's says it all about David!

[@stevehughes6627]

Best dad, daughter and doggie combo ever! Plus, as soon as the main solo starts, she gets into it. Any dad would be proud to have a daughter who appreciates music like she does. Yet another convert to keep the music alive for the future!!

[@TheMightyOdin]

Best home schooling ever.

[@capetowntrikeman]

So cool that a young girl of her age has just witnessed and heard the greatest guitar solo that she will probably ever hear in her life.

[@65marlin327]

I've watched dozens of reaction videos to this song, and it is Amelia's reaction that really made it clear that this performance isn't just music, it's an emotion. At 11, she GOT IT!!! Wonderful!

[@buckz0815]

What better could a dad give to his daughter than good music. Music is love!!

[@jimo7593]

Her best quote "the guitar part was a bit long but not long enough". Adorable pup as well

[@glenchapman3899]

Watching you swaying in time with parts of that solo filled my heart with joy. You were not simply watching, you were not simply listening, you were experiencing the song. Pink Floyd's legacy is indeed in good hands!!!

[@310digger6]

I enjoyed your reaction very much. You actually listened to the music and didn’t interrupt the solo. You are a much more enjoyable young person to watch than those much older and obsessed with their own voices and thoughts. Well done

[@lesterauten9859]

We raised our daughters on this music, When my youngest got married, she chose this song for the Father, Daughter dance. She said she always thinks of us when she hears this song.

[@completecharleston7142]

We all love that man's voice and guitar, too! There are many more Pink Floyd songs waiting to be discovered.

[@andreaspedersen3952]

Dave Mustaine did once say in an interview that Gilmour: "I'm of the belief that a player like David Gilmour could do more with one note than some of today's shredders can do with a dozen."

[@Jim_in_TN]

Mustaine's not wrong. Gilmour proves it with this very song, and also Sorrow.

[@MisterJ56]

In my opinion the most epic band of all time. Great choice of dad, my favourite song/version! And you're right Amelia, the guitar solo wasn't long enough 😉👍

[@richardkilgore8922]

Was a 30 foot in diameter disco mirror ball, that opened at the bottom, flowering into hundreds of laser light flooding the arena with lights. It was wonderful to behold live!❣

[@JamesAllenJr]

Everyone should hear this solo.

[@MsCatstaff]

I like that you picked up the sadness in this song. 'Comfortably Numb' is part of a concept album, where the songs all put together tell a story - in 'Comfortably Numb', the singer is a musician on tour, some bad things have happened and he's depressed to the point of... not quite illness, but he's definitely not himself, only the agents and managers don't care how he's feeling, they just hire a doctor to give him something so he can perform so they don't lose money. And so he's still not feeling right, but he also no longer cares: "I - have become - comfortably numb." P.S. Congratulations on getting your own Video Reaction Office!

[@OriginalPuro]

The dog was fantastic and your reaction was spot on, not long enough.

[@pumpkinhead625]

She now has Pink Floyd in her soul. Father of the year!

[@fifi23o5]

Nice to see such a young kid enjoying 'our kind of music'!

[@roylangston8424]

What a brilliant quote....lasted a long time but not long enough......

[@paulfeagans9904]

I'm so glad that some parents these days are teaching their children what 'real' music is and was. Most def a 2 thumbs up!

[@jimangela4589]

People mistake the 1994 tour with the album and DVD from the 1994 tour. The tour was called The Division Bell Tour which followed the release of the album of the same name. A year later the band released a live album from the tour and it was called P.U.L.S.E. It was also released on video. What was noteworthy about the Pulse album was that on the spine of the CD it had an annoying flashing red light. I had to cover mine with electricians tape. At night it looked like the cops were at the front of the house. The flower petal glitter ball near the end was 16 feet across. It was the last in a long line of glitter balls that The Floyd used during live shows stretching back to the early 70s.

[@davidmorgan5312]

I am sooooo happy that a young lady like yourself likes an awesome track that is 50 years old CUDOS to you A.

[@mikeknoblock7476]

Such enjoyment watching an innocent reaction to this beautiful music - and getting it (the emotions). Takes me back to my first discoveries as well. Congrats to Dad for broadening your daughter's musical appreciation spectrum. Peace.

[@michaelescareno7048]

It was joyful to watch her appreciation for this performance! I saw Pink Floyd live on this Pulse tour at the Alamodome in San Antonio with 47,000 fans. I had 18th row seats on the floor, and it was an experience of a lifetime!!!

[@zenithoclock1048]

Pink Floyd and a Ruby Cav... life is perfect.

[@alanf403]

And another Pink Floyd for Life fan is born!

[@tonyjateve1476]

You are a real good listener and that only belongs to fortunate those members of Floyd Planet ! Welcome and enjoy the best rock band ever leading by the absolutely genius of guitarrista ever who plays with his heart and soul ! For me you gave the best reaction ever until now ! Congratulations young lady !

[@gryndyl]

lol, you started her with 'Bike' and 'Scarecrow?' That's awesome.

[@roygarrett1663]

Awesome review of an awesome song with an awesome looking young lady and an awesome looking pup. Awesome.

[@nomdaploom]

You have a greater attention span than a lot of reactors who are twice your age. Congratulations young lady! Yours was a great reaction.

[@b1blancer1]

David Gilmour doesn't just play the guitar. He tells a story with it.

[@ManuelGdeP]

Heard reactions to this song many times, enjoyed this the most. Made me feel I was listening to it for the first time through her eyes!!!!!!!!!!

[@cogidubnus1953]

I think Pink Floyd are one of those bands where it's best to listen to a whole album at a time...there's often a sort of continuity there that's significant....amazing music...

[@jonathanbell7340]

That was amazing to see the smile on her face grow and grow as the song progressed. The same thing still happens to me at age 39.

[@recabitejehonadab2654]

David’s been playing guitar for a long time. He’s a guitar master. 😊

[@HooPhartd]

The guitar solo lasted a really long time BUT not long enough. I couldn't have said it any better. Love you Amelia. SUBSCRIBED!

[@phillee2814]

I love your reaction to what is easily the greatest guitar solo of all time! I had to wait until I was 22 to hear this, although I knew the album version by heart. I was just forward of the mirror ball in the 2nd tier, and that performance left me walking on air for days. Most lead guitarists gt up on stage and plug their guitars into an amplifier and pedal-board. David Gilmour goes on stage and plugs HIS guitar into his soul and your heart, and uses it to pour the raw emotion direct from himself to you, with perfectly clean tones and with room for the music to breathe. I may be just a little biased, having been there and having attended the same college as David and Syd, although quite a bit later. It is now part of Anglia Ruskin University, and Syd has a memorial plaque in the wall of the arts building where he studied, right next to the door he would have used most frequently. Every year, as an alumnus, I get to nominate someone for the Chancellors awards in each category. I nominate David for lifetime achievement and contribution to the arts, and will do so every year until he is awarded both. He's earned them, and you just heard why. Your father is giving you a truly great musical education, and I love the format with him not revealing the song until you are on camera. I just subscribed, and have to binge-watch to catch up! And to your father - thank you, and may I suggest the Live8 Pink Floyd reunion and final performance in its entirety? I had to watch it on TV, sadly, instead of being there, but it is truly epic.

[@09amitava]

Have u watched the reaction of your cute n loving pet!? She/he is also mesmerised and watching with so much concentrations! Amazing PINK FLOYD!

[@bradwilliams2081]

David Gilmour not only weaves his magic and casts spells over humans. The little dog too fell under his spell. Great reaction young lady.

[@MrPetrion]

it's always best to have a good dog with you when you do these things. glad you liked it.

[@rtwbikerider]

That was the world’s largest mirror ball hanging from the rafters. While it spins, the light that was aimed at it reflects all around the arena. I think it looks better in person than it does on a flat screen. I enjoyed your reaction. Thanks.

[@malmujalli]

This is the best reaction I ever seen for this song What a nice smile 😊 look at here beautiful smile 😀

[@strogaa]

After all these years this is still one of the greatest live moments I ever experienced. Comfortably numb is part of the concept album The wall, which is also the soundtrack of the same titled movie. It's the partwise autobiographical story of Roger Waters as "Pinky" (played by Bob Geldof), who is losing his father during the war, a mother distracted in her own grief, an authoritarian school system, fame, but fake friends... many bad things, that build up a wall around him. It's an excellent movie with strong, but sometimes also disturbing pictures/scenes. If you like Pink Floyd, I highly recommend to watch it someday, but give yourself some time until you do it. I was 16, when I saw it the first time, and... let's say, I felt a bit paralyzed.

[@wimve4719]

This lovely person gets it ... 'nuff said!

[@marke8323]

When I saw this Tour in the US, a few months before they recorded this, they played for 3 hours.

[@ericswannie2504]

Now, that's proper Pink Floyd. Nightwish did a cover of Pink Floyd's High Hopes with Marko singing.

[@tonyjateve1476]

It was so nice to see this cute young lady enjoying the best band and the best of the best guitar player of rock . Welcome to Planet FLOYD and to be part of Floydian population young charming lady who makes me recall my three own lovelys young beauty lady's whom I teach from tender age to listen Pink Floyd and they love it as well I am sure you will young lady ! Congratulations and I wish you a very success chanel because you are a good listener ! Wish you the best of the best !

[@rolandbellamy2837]

glad you enjoyed it flower , even your doggy looked chilled out ! i was at that concert sat just to the left of the " jellyfish " it was a glitter ball ! a bit of advice from a 70 year old grandad , try to get to as many live concerts as you can , they will stay with you all your life ! and keep the tickets ! stay safe all of you , and god bless ! :)

[@rochelleclough3895]

You and that dog cutest coolest reactors yet. Hope you both react to more from this group. Your never to young or old to witness this band. And like you each time you hear a song again from them it grows on you some more!

[@Trucker231610]

Good job Dad! Great reaction young lady!

[@anskamp4780]

This is my favorite from Pink Floyd 👌very wel done Amelia !

[@denniseldridge2936]

Hey, guys! I'm really enjoying this wonderful journey through the best of rock & roll, and I'm really glad Amelia and Bella are too hehe. I'm an ancient rocker myself, and these tunes are the very ones I cut my teeth on, my older brother having handed down his vinyl record collection to me when I was eight-ten years of age. A couple of historical and contextual notes: - This from the album and movie "The Wall", which touched on such themes as how the UK educational system at the time was rather harsh and alienating, as was society at large (how cheerful!). It's also about Roger Waters's relationship with his father, who was captured by the Germans during the War. - This is one of my own favourite "big guitar" songs - huge, fat tone from the guitar, against a fairly simple backdrop of power chords. The guitar solo is relatively simple, but he uses just the right notes at the right time to make it sound so much greater... - PF were known for their elaborate shows; at times they've featured flying pigs, and in the late 70's placed massive bass bins under the audience's seats to compliment the sound of the engine of a remote control airoplane which stated the show. And then, as you found out, the light shows were amazing of course. All the best to ya :-)

[@stephenhood1516]

Looks like Dad is making some fine choices from the recommendations your receiving Amelia, your musical education is in good hand's. I know there are many more wonderful band's and artists for you to discover but can I recommend the next time you delve into Nightwish you check out a performance that Floor and Troy played for Planet Rock in February, prior to the lock down. They perform acoustic versions of the classic 'Nemo' and from the new album, 'How's The Heart' which is absolutely stunning, Floor's voice is so amazing, I'm sure you'll be impressed once again by this ladies vocal ability. Love your reactions, the antics of the dog always brings a smile to my face!

[@77gengis]

An 11 year old that listen to pink floyd give me hope for the future

[@ChrisPage68]

Not one, but TWO of the greatest guitar solos of all time, played by one of the world's greatest guitar players. 👏 Hope school is working out well for you after all this time away. I must find out if my niece is back (she's in Cambridgeshire), because she is due to be starting senior school in September.

[@ivankaleoniefuchs333]

Gute reaction, I liked the guitar as well, und Danke 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

[@bazkeen]

Keep the journey going. That ball that opened up sent incredible beams of light around the place. All the light reflecting off it

[@Green-Lyon]

Pink Floyd is one of, if not THE greatest masters of the live concert. Tuomas & Marko of Nightwish are big fans of the band and I have to think that Floyd has had an impact on the way Nightwish does their big shows. Nightwish even covered the Pink Floyd song, "High Hopes" with Marko singing the lead. I think Amelia would really like it. If you do watch the performance, keep an eye out for the circular screen that Nightwish uses there which recalls the big circular screen here.

[@dwanpyrtle3134]

I gotta believe that reactions like this one is one of the reasons they continued on in Roger Water's absence. The mirror ball opening up is much the way an outer space satellite does after deployment.

[@paulharris7950]

OMG! 11 And You Get it! You should be proud of Your Dad, and Your Dad should be Proud of You! p.s. It actually does look like a jellyfish! p.p.s. Love that Dog!!!

[@stephenmcmillan2817]

Love to see a new generation listening to Pink Floyd. I found your channel through this video and have since watched most of your reactions, can't wait to see you discover more great music. I highly recommend Shine on you crazy Diamond, or Time, from the same Pulse concerts. But really you can't go wrong with any Pink Floyd. I also think you should listen to some Led Zeppelin, probably start with Stairway to Heaven as a great intro, but it gets even better from there.

[@JayJay-ex6yo]

im glad u used this live version. by far the best!

[@b1blancer1]

Funny that you said it wasn't long enough! This is actually the edited version. This and other songs in this concert were probably edited so the whole thing would fit on a VHS tape, which would've been the standard in 1994. If you look around on KZbin, you can find the unedited version. It has some different camera angles than this version and is 50-odd seconds longer, all of which is the in the ending guitar solo. There is also a remastered video of this edited version on KZbin. I wish somebody would remaster the unedited version.

[@briantillman2812]

Well, it’s all downhill from here. ☺️🤷🏼‍♂️ outstanding reaction! Subscribed!

[@thomasmain6807]

Excellent reaction, the human is pretty good to.

[@2kanchoo]

Back to school in June? Sorry to hear that kiddo! This is my favorite Pink Floyd song.

[@oscarfiblas2096]

¡Lo más grande!

[@thattherevideoguy]

The giant ball hanging down was a giant disco ball covered in mirrors.

[@Green-Lyon]

Yeah, it just unfolded so the mirrored sections could scatter the light (and look really cool and dramatic of course!)

[@RushfanUK]

The big jellyfish thing was a mirror ball that for added effect opens up.

[@AliasMark69]

Nice choice Dad. The Greatest Guitar Solo In History.

[@GreyBeardIT]

Amelia - Seeing your reactions reminds me of introducing my own daughter to a lot of these same songs years ago, and it brings back a lot of happy memories. Thank you! Dad - Good choice with the live version of this song vs the video with clips from the movie in it. That may have been a bit much. If you're going back to earlier songs might I suggest Queensryche - Silent Lucidity, Rush - Limelight, or The Moody Blues - I'm Just a Singer (In a Rock and Roll Band).

[@geoffconner6783]

A very nice reaction video, your pup seems very nice too.

[@adamwilliams7127]

Awsome reaction luv lol the dogs cool as you like lol .. .. ))

[@Idefixu]

What an atmosphere! Great reaction!

[@mrvarus8957]

Awesome guitar solo.........I want that dog,its so cute.

[@richardgoddard37]

Dad has great taste in music.

[@TheRealSiberD]

David Gilmour can bring a smile to a person of any age.

[@TheSkipinatorVids]

That look on her face at 8:15. That's the same face I've been making to Pink Floyd for 40+ years.

[@sjd5750]

Amelia is very sweet. She reminds me of my granddaughter. Nice job, Amelia!..As we say here on YT..I think you may have gone down the rabbit-hole...Have fun!

[@wiltingreymann2820]

Its so nice to see that you let the music come in you and experience the sounds en melody.

[@jamesanderson5268]

Loved how the only times you were swaying back and forth were when David Gilmour was singing or playing his guitar. He gives me a similar reaction. Happy birthday, BTW.

[@robinmuir7799]

Great reaction!

[@rhizar93]

Great choice

[@1234tori]

beautiful react - brava amelia - thanks

[@kevinohara2618]

One of my favourite reaction videos, thank you

[@mjg123mg]

Brilliant Amelia, keep on rocking.

[@peppernagre3126]

Thanks for making me smile.

[@antoniofino2825]

Great song! Keep rockin'!

[@robanderson6310]

The thing hanging down is a yin yang flower (?) I think.

[@marymargaretmoore9034]

Bella is so cute. Great reaction Amelia! You should watch the live version of Echoes from Pompeii, 1971-2, parts 1 and 2, from when they were young.

[@palantir135]

Best guitar solo ever. I think you will like Echoes too.

[@btlarsen]

from Pulse I suggests High hopes and Run like hell

[@Idefixu]

Check High Hopes cover by Nightwish, many PF fans love that one.

[@angelagraves865]

Omg, welcome to Pink Floyd!! I really hope you listen to more. Every song is more beautiful than the next. ✌💖🖖

[@sterlingknight8087]

Like most art, the mirror ball is subject to interpretation by everyone who sees it. Most art asks a question rather than giving an answer. What do YOU think it meant? Whatever you feel it meant, you're right!

[@FREETHINKER-05]

You seem to enjoy guitar solos very much Amelia 🤟🤟✌️✌️

[@ortega1955]

Encanto,buen video

[@donepearce]

I was at Earls Court that night, but watching Amelia just get it brought it all back to me. The mirror ball? No idea, but it was fun to see.Suggestions? Maybe a girl singer only a little older than Amelia. Diana Ankudinova singing Wicked Game on Russia's version of The Voice.

[@cuillinguy]

Great to hear school is happening again. The new room sounds cool too. 😎

[@victordunavent9477]

Your little girl really likes epic lead guitar. Might i suggest firth of fifth by genesis for another epic solo
