David Gilmour & Bob Geldof - 16 Comfortably numb

Video imperdible, Gilmour y Geldof en escena.
David Gilmour in Concert

[@FloydTheWolf]

Bob has something that really sounds like Roger Waters in his voice, this half-singing, half-whispering style. This is great !

[@davidbreen6335]

Thats why he was good for playing and singing the part of Pink in the Wall Movie.

[@marianevegirgenti6272]

Yes. Great!💯💯💯

[@kc768]

Gilmour's voice hasn't changed. He sounds great. Almost like a record.

[@TheWorldTeacher]

It's a shame the same could NOT be said for Sir Robert.

[@user-wc6pw8oh6v]

Lol ed Sheeran always sounds just as shitty live as he does on recordings

[@tiago2189]

His voice aged like a fine wine

[@holographiccowboy5271]

Bob Geldof has such an amazing voice for this song

[@RobinSchenk1]

Wow I love the moment when they are waiting for Gilmour to change guitar and everyone is anticipating the solo and everyone is like - is it coming? No? Yes? No? Yeeeeees! :D :D love this version

[@gonzaga3891]

Exactly !!!

[@shenaniganiz0r]

I can only imagine the thrill of hearing the audience cheer as you go to grab the guitar to play the solo that they're waiting - DYING - to hear at that moment in the song. It must be amazing, knowing that those people, at that moment, are there to hear YOU. What YOU have to play, what YOU have to express, what YOU'RE presenting to their ears. I bet there's nothing like it. I hope to feel that, myself, one day.

[@Indomi2008]

Bob is a Human rights actives , He gave up all money & fame for people in need . he is a saint. an angle. God Bless his Soul,,, we Love you Bob...

[@cannaewargaming4815]

He didn't give up any fame at all. His fame grew from LiveAid. He was a relatively minor punk singer before then, with one major hit. And he lived in an expensive house in central London. He had/has money. I doubt he is an angle, more likely a saxon?

[@BB-fd2rf]

@@cannaewargaming4815 🤣 true!

[@raphael_2d878]

400 YEARS LATER i still love Bob.

[@NilsRuneTorrissen]

Very Good Bob Geldof on vocal. Bob , you are my HERO...!!!

[@bbandthesv]

Bob has the perfect voice for Comfortably Numb

[@belle9438]

I've been listening to David play for 35 plus years and he still awe's me. He's always been number 1 for me. I just love his style.

[@MusicAnirban]

The smile on Gilmour's face when he starts the second solo is priceless...

[@blackmoreOrion]

Don't forget about Michael Kamen (R.I.P.) on piano!

[@danielaricciardi6665]

Exactly!

[@HardRockMiner]

I've been listening to this song for most of my life ad it still gives me goosebumps. Thats the mark of a truly classic song

[@silentorah]

I wish Bob would go out on tour with Dave ,, after seeing the movie a million times I find his voice fits PInk Floyd music perfectly

[@kurtkeg8811]

agreed!!!!!!

[@ClaudioKang271263]

this is the real deal. Classic rock.

[@ogunbaskaya1483]

Claudio Kang 💯

[@april_maybee102]

After all these years, David Gilmour's voice is just the same.... Beautiful.

[@mugford777]

man 61 years old, and he's still got it

[@drgnfrc13]

If you listen at 2x speed, it actually sounds like some kind of folk music.

[@danilabbozzetta8754]

hahahahahhdsajhfd i just laughed a lot doing this man, thanks

[@francisbtube]

Try .025 Tortuous 😂 😂 😂

[@luckyducki]

I haven't been okay since I saw The Wall

[@averygoodman761]

I guess Geldof didn't listen to side 3 of The Wall 2,109,307 times, like I did.

[@fionamackaymckelvie5699]

Avery Goodman 😂😂😂😂

[@gi5089]

Avery Goodman To be completely honest. I'm not the biggest fan of the third side. Ofcourse Comfortably numb is the absolute pinnacle of the album and Pink Floyd in general but I just really can't get into songs like Hey you(apart from the ending solo) and Vera. However I am a HUGE fan of the first and second side...

[@averygoodman761]

Fair enough, brother -- the album's structured somewhat like an opera, so yeah, the third side is about where you'd slip out for a pee and a smoke.

[@habanero6332]

Giyan Scheers wow it’s my favorite side. Hey you is the best.

[@liamkavanagh4150]

he doesnt like pink floyd lol

[@oh1yeah2]

This is a beautiful version of the song. I especially like the cello and the rhythm section with the percussion, piano and the upright bass, giving it an acoustic feel to it. Bravo

[@TheJedwardo]

Geldof is hilarious, he played pink in the movie and he has no idea of the lyrics

[@MrDannyboyhall]

Was a part of the show that they carry a lyric sheet Robert Wyatt did the same

[@TheJedwardo]

@@MrDannyboyhall that may be but, it’s still hilarious

[@remimartin8493]

​@@TheJedwardohe still remember the melody at least..

[@tiago2189]

Well he said that he hated Pink Floyd

[@thankGodforDavidG]

Totally agree with you, paulusmagirl, the main thing is when you combine David's guitar and Bob's voice, you got one heck of a music bliss !

[@DrumCoversbyBill]

This is my absolute fav Pink Floyd Song but I just love Caroline Dale! She brings a real flare to this song! Best ever!

[@C1v1cDr1v3r]

I like the way Bob is swinging to the music at 6:34 .. shows some kind of respect to David and his music.

[@Plinythelder]

Tho amazing still funny to see Bob having to look at the lyrics....professionalism!!Haha!!

[@TheWorldTeacher]

+Tony T And he was the star of "The Wall" movie...

[@dr.lambert1001]

+Reverend Eslam That happens when you star a musical movie and don't sing more than two songs on it...

[@JorgenSjobom]

guess he know all the Boomtown Rats lyrics 😊🎼🎤🎵😊

[@raizumichin]

Nice to se someone respectfully disagreeing, instead of cursing and insulting.

[@nightfox]

Gilmor is one of the best guitarists alive. Love all his songs, as he does great guitar solo's in them

[@vaderetrovideos]

Qué simbólico es el hecho de que sea Gelfof quien cante en este tema! Los invitamos a ver nuestra versión de esta obra de arte

[@thankGodforDavidG]

Comfortably numb's guitar solo is considered one of the greatest guitar solos of all times. The fact that David Gilmour does this solo maybe explains the reason it's held in that high regard.

[@kazismurph]

fantastic performance,i still cried

[@adm2127]

Excellent seeing Bob here since he starred in their movie, "The Wall". I can hear his voice distinctly which is a great asset to this marvelous band.

[@loebell]

yes... beautiful. It seems this music was made for his voice. I also like his performance reading the lyrics and when he has his head down contemplative... One of my favorites, but almost all of their albums are...

[@1975MAICO1975]

THE CELLO ADDED BEAUTY TO THIS SONG

[@pcjsleader]

The most memorable and amazing solo to ever grace music. Just WOW.

[@davidblack1970]

AWESOME. BRILLIANT. The construction of a well oiled song. CLASSIC.

[@GabrielChapuDiaz]

Hello BOB, capo...gracias por tu actuación en The Wall..la vi 16 veces!!

[@marcsimon4624]

I can't believe that geldof actually needs notes so he can sing this iconic song..he couldn't memorize a few lines of a song?

[@honeycrisp808]

He did mention that he hated Pink Floyd's lyrics back in an interview for The Wall. So, that might have something to do with it.

[@dailyfleetwoodmac6999]

Well bob geldof not a huge Pink Floyd fan

[@Themad_katter]

bob really never liked pink floyd so that’s why he probably never knew the lyrics

[@remimartin8493]

​@@Themad_katteri imagine he couldn't remember the lyrics of the music but he remember the melody song.. That not too bad

[@D3LTA1874]

The build up of suspense for the solo was orgasmicly amazing. Made me feel Comfortably numb

[@Robster65]

Nobody plays that thang like Gilmore ... awesomeness

[@michleohara8994]

The darkest version of comfortably numb..

[@Kwales66]

RIP Peaches x :(

[@nickatron]

really enjoyed this performance of CN. Think Bob did a great job of adding a fresh approach to the song.

[@davidbelovic4232]

the most perfect drumming to the end solo possible, even Geldof turns around to check if it's for real

[@Excalibur322]

Gilmour...A true god in the history of music.

[@tantem7]

Alles bildet eine Einheit und das kommt dabei raus:Weltklasse!!!

[@Gunbladexo1]

Hahaha I love the lady's expression at 4:28... that's classic disgust at his singing...

[@lesleyrawlings5518]

I would love to hear Nick Cave do this!

[@funko3119]

That'd be amazing

[@kirarosenberger680]

that would be great!!!

[@MusicAnirban]

flawless string bends....!!!! Hail Mr Gilmour

[@darthbandi3026]

As always - amazing!!!!

[@DrumCoversbyBill]

Man I could watch Caroline Dale play her Cello all day long! I love the acoustic version of this song.

[@penfloyd]

A Wonderful concert which highlights just how "classical" the music of Pink Floyd really is....... Saddened and shocked to hear that Rick Wright had passed away....no words needed.

[@lescar88]

always an amazing song - thanks for sharing!

[@RushfanUK]

A unique position for Bob Geldoff, surrounded by genuine talent, sadly Michael Kamen died a year later in 2003, only 55 I believe, along with Rick Wright who appears on this DVD RIP.

[@SusanJeanine]

Beautiful!! A work of art.

[@placidian]

That was pretty darn awesome, thank you for sharing!

[@carloszerda1583]

muyyyyyyyyy buenos....excelente tema,me hace acordar a mi adolecencia...

[@Clusterbomb7814]

The Cellist is (1) a very good player and (2) stunning!!

[@grandegrande4728]

Que buen duo, grandes

[@badpanda1578]

Beautiful!!!!!!!!

[@johnnykaszubski2199]

I remember when Bob laughed that he hates Floyd's music. Maybe just because his solo music is different. I actually love them both. That's great, that they had sang together with Gilmour

[@wizofozzie]

It's nice the "Pink" himself came to sing with David Gilmour.

[@nicolasriveros943]

even if Bob dosn't know the lyrics, this version is amazing

[@retrotubergoober1291]

I am watching this in July 6 2020 and Bob can read if he wants this is the best version of this song ever

[@seanreillyireland]

I think its brilliant that so many people observed the issue of reading from the notes. If you look at Bowie singing it in an immeasurably superior and emotive manner, he doesn't resort to this ploy. What reading from the notes says to me is "oh, I am so important, and I have so much going on that how could I be expected to remember the words of this poxy little song that I lend my great presence to". And that generally applies to every prima donna who does this on stage.

[@fanafana17]

Another excellent job by David God bless you.

[@osivor1021]

Colombian "Chucho-Merchan" on double bass, what a great honor!!!! Michael Kamen, David Gilmour, Bob Geldof... the best of the best...

[@borasissou732]

Deux géants sur la scène ...

[@8t8zee11]

Bob does a wonderful job of balancing media, politics making awareness and changing crap....must get a biography of him, that's the art of moving between worlds to me, amazing song also

[@penfloyd]

Never tire of this song......"Timeless"

[@pgohearn]

Awesome great work.

[@florenciavalentini5414]

wow Bob ;) so cool

[@ynotlaz]

Bob can do whatever he wants. He did reunite the greatest band ever to set foot on the planet.

[@hapkrs]

awsome, music moves the soul.

[@Stoddy2k]

Gilmour. What a legend.

[@cat.547]

oh dear, Bob needs lyrics...love them

[@PAPPhil]

Hello Bob !

[@SuperSolano24]

Beautiful!

[@zofiazareba3717]

Uwielbiam ten utwór :-)

[@ayushbanerjee2581]

This is amazing as anything man. Made my day. :')

[@bubblebongo]

Richard Wright read the lyrics from paper in Live at Gdansk, and he's part of the band!

[@viktorz4869]

Perfect variant! Bravo!

[@Stereostuart]

this is an amazing performance

[@shaggyzack87]

This such a cool video..I never knew this happen..seeing bob just reminds me of the scene with this song...thanks for the upload...too cool

[@Schadde]

Michael Kamen on the piano... what a group of people there. RIP Robert and Michael.

[@carloseugeniocarlos4287]

amazing live version! R.i.p Rick!

[@Mastermind81179]

increible, a pesar de la edad, sigue tocando y cantando de la misma forma, grande david, saludos desde chile y si por casualidad vez este mensaje, david ven a chile, porfavor ven

[@djtrixen]

You'd think the guy who starred as Pink in the movie would know the lyrics to this song... You would think...

[@rigovalenz]

remember he was uncomfortably numb at this point in the move :)

[@nernenu]

that's funny... I came here to see Geldof. lol

[@fionamackaymckelvie5699]

trixen it was at least 30 years ago maybe more

[@wweselowski]

Bob Geldof is a pop/rock star from his time, turned poet. It's part of the thrill trixen. Sheesh

[@jaysonwilliams3938]

wow - powerfully remastered - I loved it!!

[@luigicroce3501]

wonderful!

[@LaPolaka83]

Amazing!

[@HaveUCalledPinkFloyd]

Cello sounds wonderful ....

[@ammuinaRepubblic]

Quando rischi di incontrare i tuoi eroi sapendo di morire di emozioni.....bhe ....morirei volentieri...maestoso Bob...immenso R3 David ❤️❤️

[@ninjaman1138]

is it a slight insult to have to read the lyrics from a screwed up piece of paper?

[@gw2031]

i think it was a wee bit of " oh i dont listen to Pink Floyd ,not my thing " but strangely Bob knew the vocal line rhythms perfectly !

[@carlosalbertoherrera7684]

Y el genio, el inolvidable maestro Michael Kamen en teclados... muy buen recuerdo!

[@DAVIDH101280]

beautiful song

[@juanaguadalupecarreongarci3510]

Amó está hermosa canción.

[@YasenTsonev]

The biggest heroes of a great generation!

[@1danrobbins]

Is there a better song in the history of Rock and Roll? Doesn't matter if it's Roger or David, both versions are nothing short of CLASSIC.

[@garyryber3907]

AWESOME!
