I once played this song to a girlfriend that I had as we drove to a luxurious restaurant. And after listening to it, she turned to me with a bewildered look and asked, "You actually like that song?" That is when I slowly pulled over the vehicle and gently came to a stop. I took a deep breath and let out a long sigh. I then grabbed my door handle and opened my door. I got and calmly made my way over to her side of the vehicle. I gently grabbed her door handle and kindly opened her door for her and nicely said, "Peace Out Girl!" 😂 So congrats on finding a lovely woman who seems to have enjoyed this masterpiece of music.

As a guitar player there are many styles presented by great players very gifted in their particular style technically, but for me personally David Gilmour exhibits the same characteristic which the band has mastered, and that is to resist the tendency to display technical skill in favour of using the guitar to extract emotion from an audience by both a hypnotizing melody and immersing you in a soundscape of passion, and more than often with a highly intellectual social message to drive it all home to be branded on your memory.. I can't count the number of reactions to pink Floyd songs I've watched that brought the host(s) to tears, men, women, old, young.

There were close to 100 tractor trailers of Production ( Lights, Sound,Scenery etc) There were 3 complete Steel Stages on the Tour, the one they would be playing on that week, one being built in the next city and one traveling to the venue 2 weeks away.!

They used 51 semis in order to 'leap-frog' across their North American Tour. For instance, if they were playing in Tampa, 17 semis were there with the staging and support items. At the same time, 17 semis were taking down the Miami concert venue, and, 17 semis were setting up the next concert location in Jacksonville, and so on. THE most incredible concert tour ever accomplished. Years later they put out the video and DVD set filmed from the end of their World Tour in London, called "Pulse". The North American concert was very similar. I had seen them in 1987 at Tampa Stadium, and suggested to my high school students that I was teaching in 1994, that they should see this concert. I went to the concert and was astonished that the '87 show could be made that much more amazing. Then, when teaching classes the following day, a few students came up to me and said, "Thanks a lot coach. We went to that Pink Floyd concert. You've ruined concert-going for us for the rest of our lives......because, we know right now that we will never see anything to top that."

Pink Floyd is a journey. I've been a fan for 50+ years. This whole concert is epic. The song was written by Roger Waters, a founding member of the band who's not in this, about when as a kid and he was really sick and felt comfortably numb being medicated. The Prism you're talking about is the cover art from their 1973 album "Dark Side of the Moon". Probably one of their most popular albums. It spent an amazing 900, or more, weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 album charts. I know I added to that. Since I bought the original in 1973 I've had a copy on 8-track, cassette and compact disc. Also a half speed Original Master Recording on virgin vinyl and a Super Audio CD of the original master.

That's the official explanation. But to me, it is Syd's voice talking about his descent into schizophrenia, where he is insulated from life by being "comfortably numb". The guitar solos and the heaviness of the music makes the subject way too important for such a simple event as in that official explanation.

@@StuartBiliack feel free to believe what you like. he did experience a flashback to when he was sick as a kid but there's a larger context. the complete & accurate story is that during a tour date in Philly Roger got hepatitis & was treated by a shady venue doctor so he could perform that night. the song is a call-&-response between Roger as patient & the shady doc.

Great Gig in the Sky from the same Pulse concert should be next on your listening list. For Comfortably Numb, one of my favourite parts is the camera shot where Gilmour is backlit by the lights and is in shadow - a very powerful image for me.

The studio version is a masterpiece. Clare Torrey's vocals were incredible. In concert it usually took three vocalists to do what Clare did solo.

Anything from this concert is epic. Sorrow, learning to fly hell all of them. I am 67 and was privileged to see them three times. It's more than just a concert it's a epic experience sencery overload you don't only hear it you feel it. After all these years I still get goose bumps. There is a DVD of this concert.....sit in front of the big screen put on the head phones turn it up and go on a journey.

Any song from the Pulse concert is top tier. With Pink Floyd, nearly any live performance is as good, or better, than the studio version with very few exceptions. "Mother" and "Shine on You Crazy Diamond" are the two exceptions that come to mind. If you want to see what David Gilmour can do when he wants to show off a bit, check out :Run Like Hell" from this same concert. It is the second encore behind this song and when you watch it you will understand why they chose it to follow what is probably one of the greatest performances in rock history. I really enjoyed the reaction and subscribed because of it, Rock on.

This is one of the many examples as to why David Gilmour is one of the GOAT guitarists. Another you should consider is Frank Marino and Mahagony Rush, I highly recommend "Something's Coming Our Way Live At Agora Theater". Outstanding performance ✌️ ☮️ 🎸🎶🇺🇸

Sorry for double post but the album "Dark Side of the Moon" by Pink Floyd is the most sold album around the world, selling more than 1 million copies every year since it came out in 1973. So, 50 years later it still sells more than 1 million copies every year. The cover is what you were talking about with the prism pyramid and the light rays. That image, due to the albums incredible global reach, has become for any fan Pink Floyd's "logo"

As a t667-year-old who has been a PF fan for quite a long time, for me this song is mainly about the acceptance that some dreams of one's youth will not be realized...but that is not necessarily problematic. In answer to another question....you have just begun a journey that will take you to places that you cannot yet imagine.

When I need to chill, close my eyes and just let my mind relax…Pink Floyd puts me there…in the 70s to right now. I actually went to this exact concert in Dallas. In all, I only saw them live 3 times. Music was so good back then. Hope you will listen to ELP one day, too many favs but I would suggest Lucky Man.
