It is multivalent, but the inspiration for the albumns dark side of moon, and the wall. Was the original singer and guitar player of pink floyd sid barett who slowly descended into madness.

Gilmour takes all the themes of the song... which are fundamentally at odds with one another, and expresses the longing for innocence lost, and the frustration about losing it. Because there is no resolution to the problem. Have to come to terms. Then the solo ends up high with a plea to the almighty. Pretty much takes you to church

lemme just say this though because it's a huge bummer to think it's just forever gone - you never lose it!!! it's a muscle that atrophies from disuse, and society, life, responsibilities, work, structured thinking, rationality, are what force you away from that most profound part of the human experience. you gotta do the hard work to learn how to unshoulder all of the bullshit baggage this society places on you, so you can strengthen that muscle and get back to where you started. take some time out, and mentally, flat out, discard society and your position in it, discard your responsibilities, discard your job, timelines, deadlines, the news, and the facts. throw all that shit out the window. quiet your mind and daydream. start learning how to focus again - true focus, where the world disappears, and your entire experience becomes your point of focus, without your focus jumping around. this is a skill you possess to perfection as a child but it's beaten out of you as being "spacey" or "unfocused". start trying to really appreciate your sensory experience. when you look, stop looking dispassionately at the world around you and start really appreciating what your sensory experience is giving you, start seeing, really seeing, with intent. as you learn to see again, your mind's eye will brighten too, your imagination will start to rev back up. suddenly, everything begins to feel a little bit more magical and ethereal, as it did when you were a child. rather than just using the hierarchical, logical part of your brain, the associative, graph-network part of your brain starts to sputter back on. you start to feel the connections between sensory experiences and old sense memories. it's all still right there. it's as though we come out of the womb standing, but grow up in a society that forces people to walk on their hands. it's no wonder we can't stand on our feet anymore after awhile. that doesn't mean your legs fell off, but you ARE gonna have to do a lot of calf raises if you wanna walk again.

Pink Floyd has this ability, to break your heart open... and than you start crying and you don't even know why... and the crying turns into sobbing... and a release of soo much you don't even understand fully, the solo's they hit me on a soul level that is so unique.... there is a Song Hey You... a heard for at least 50 times... and still to this day, when the solo begins.. i cry... you felt it deep.... let it all out... ❤

Roger Waters of Pink Floyd (co-writer of this song) said of all music, “The only thing that matters is if it moves you. Nothing is more important.”

[@TheCastaberg]

The lyrics “When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse out of the corner of my eye. I turned to look but it was gone, I cannot put my finger on it now, the child is grown, the dream is gone” always hits me.

[@hydradominatus3641]

[@JesusGarcia-cs9wl]

I know what you mean. I know what the song is about. But it can mean something different to each person that listens to it. The lyrics you quote mean something very personal to me now. I first heard the song when it came out. I was in high school. Having lunch in the cafeteria. A friend brought a tape. The "fleeting glimpse" was what could have been. But life didn't turn out like I planned. "I turned to look but it was gone". (It) being my potential. "I cannot put my finger on it now". I don't know how it happened. "The child is grown, the dream is gone". All I can do is lament on what might have been. Song still touches me.

[@poopsebeb]

Genius!! My favourite line as well

[@rockinroyle]

Agree. Just like the lyrics from Time have a different meaning to me at 40 than at 20. "So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking, racing around to come up behind you again. The sun is the same in a relative way but your older, shorter of breath and one day closer to death. Everyday is getting shorter, never seem to find the time, plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines". To sum up human existence and a feeling we all feel at some point or another. It's magic

[@Joey.9]

I strongly believe Pink Floyd doesn't just create music but deals in frequencies that reach into your soul. I know music is frequency but I think Gilmour understood how to speak to people through frequencies in his guitar solos. Blessings to everyone in the world!

Pink Floyd has so many songs that mean so many different things to different people. Their songs have a way of people addressing them to what's going on in their personal lives or things from their past, it part of the genuis of this band. So glad you enjoyed it, and crying is enjoying it, because good music makes you feel.

[@ricksgamemisc10]

Pink Floyd have some of the deepest and most meaningful songs. And their meanings can be very personal to the listener and further, the meaning can *change* for you as you grow older. They were true genius songwriters and arrangers. That David GIlmore solo tears (crying-tears) me up also. Almost every time.

[@bruun1974]

@@ricksgamemisc10 - Every note of just about everyone of his solos is emotions porn.

[@izzonj]

I think that's because their lyrics are often poetry, evocative but not quite specific. Combined with the emotional music, the songs did into us and we bring our own meaning to them. Not all, of course, some are more literal (for example, Money).

He died alone in his apartment and was found about 5 days later. I feel guilty for so many reasons. I still can't believe it. I love and miss him so much. My heart is forever broken 💔. You guys are awesome. I love this song. I see it a little different though. When he says " just a little pin prick & there will be no more AAAHHH. This will keep you going for the show, come on it's time to go." My husband & myself see that as getting shot up with heroin to make him Comfortably Numb. ??? 😢

Roger Waters has specifically said the song is not about drugs. I don't know where you got it from that it's about heroin, but it was always "just" about needing a doctor before a show, which happened to a band member. He got medicine, he got "comfortably numb".
