Pink Floyd (Pulse) - The opening ball (comfortably numb)

[TheGitaarAAP]

This song is about poo dipers

[IPstixrawesume]

@TheGitaarAAP Actually, this song is about when one of the members had severe stomach cramps before a show, and was injected with tranquilizers to stop the cramping. Also, to throw in a little more info, the verses and outro guitar solo are in B minor, and the chorus and choral solo are it D major. Finally, it was originally intended to be on one of Gilmour's solo albums.

Intelligent comments FTW.

I am speachless!

[abooboo4u]

Yes !....just as i saw it about 100 feet from the stage to the upper left in Texas Stadium Dallas.....I 1st saw the Ball and thought nice...just like the circus....but it was moving back and forth and it was huge....then when it opened up and the lazers started flying out of it......wow.....I'll never forget it....what a grand finale....Pink Floyd always had the very latest and best light shows money could buy..... Cheers......El Fat Boy Texcino

[djtrixen]

ah... nothing like seeing the words "Evaluation Copy" plastered across Gilmour's face. lol

[kronlof2]

Saw this back in the day in Vancouver. What a sight.

[zcyh147]

god,what i see in this video!!!!

[juegas]

why would someone just post this last part? See the whole performance folks.......StanMark has it.

[alesilmaril]

Face melting solo...literally...my jaw is still aching after years of that glorious performance....my best concert and music moment ever...truly Art Rock

[qcbh27]

acid was 10x stronger back in the 60's and 70's and my dad said the last time he did was at a PF show in Charlotte when they hit the ball w/ lights it made a million little lights all over everyone and he said he could wipe them off,,,,,,wish I had some of that shit

[djtrixen]

qcbh27 hellz yeeeahhh!! i want some o' dat shit 2!

[silverandteal]

hahaha... that's crazy awesome

[ODYSEA737]

oh my God¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ cool¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ aswone¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

[neolestro]

im freezing now..too cold here but this solo warming up to me!..what a wonderful solo!..im listening to Pink Floyd about 8 years.Some lucky guys saw this concert live!..

God bless u Pink Floyd!..

[Clashchileno]

this is by far the best guitar solo ever... not even Jiummy page, Hendrix, Blackmore, etc can create something like this

[HeibergOlsen]

Agreed. No other guitar solo comes even CLOSE to this masterpiece.

[AmosNomore]

Perhaps the most blatantly overt display of psychedelic mushroom iconography ever to be encountered on our fine planet. No worship service attended in the entire history of Humankind could come anywhere close to manifesting the Power and the Glory as did Pink Floyd in 1994!

[kutinoham]

best guitar solo ever

[evilmonkey1231]

i wish i was young enough to have seen the live.

[xXxCleopatraxXx]

I feel so bad I didn't took a flight to see this concert.

Only concert I've ever seen close to that is when Roger came to Israel.

[limasfalluja]

sarà per sempre parte di me.....

[mwadevilg]

I saw this live. It was the closing number of The Division Bell tour. This was the most incredible concert I've ever seen. I couldn't attend another concert for years after Pink Floyd. Everything else was dissapointing after seeing Floyd. I walked out of concerts after seeing this. Nothing could compare to this. A blind person or a deaf person could have enjoyed this show!

[jowussup]

simply the best solo in the history of guitar

[BastonPower]

im learning the 2 solos of that song and its freaking awesome

[yrag1966]

Probably the best use of electromagnetic energy since the Universe came into existance.

[yoram1]

heavenly

[iamthebyron]

Four minutes of aural bliss.

Quite possibly the greatest solo I've ever heard.

[masterjp93]

just beautifull.

[enemymouse]

Consider yourselves EVALUATED! Mwahahahah!

[Imoverhere11]

I was lucky enough to have been at this concert. It was the best finale to a fantastic concert!!

[R0bertKing]

I just can't stop listening to this!!!!

[trulzzz]

goodbye to life as we know it.

[UberGenesis]

Oh man, i must have watched this video for over a 1000 times already, i'm going to watch roger waters live soon, hope it will compare with this show but im not counting on it..

[RaggedTiger70]

Roger Waters has a great show, and hearing that orchestra in Comfy Numb in surround sound at his show is awesome :)

[Macisum]

You mean David Gilmour? :p

[700APM]

FUCKEN AWESOME!

[patomanazul]

creatividad, innovacion,...floyd

[gpapava]

Just thank you...

[matisek371989]

[dudemon123]

GREAT QUALITY

[gringo123n]

amezing song

[noleafclover444]

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING

[rickenlp]

no words to describe this

[PinkFloydJackson]

No words needed. As floyd said themself "Theres a silence that speaks so much louder than words."

[wariioor]

This is....... OMG NO WORDS!!!

[daigoro021]

yep I agree.. nothing comes close to this solo.. I was at this earls court concert.. i was blown away.. totally.. even watching it now leaves me covered in goosebumps !!!

[PinkFloydJackson]

this is my favourite solo on the planet theres just nothing can beat it.

[royalarctic]

absolutely nothing :)

[fa014054]

no nothing on this earth, god himself can not beat it :D

[foudelipu]

Hey bien mon ami!

T'as raison que c'est epoustoufflant mais Dieu est bien plus grand que ça !

[kbake60]

heart of the sun

[Quam869]

wow

[cabinascarlos]

impresionante siempre pink floyd presentando practicamente 2 espectaculos su concierto y ademas el concierto de luces nadie lo iguala

[pogo14022002]

best bit of the song plus awesome scene

[hollowsephiroth]

and no wall behid them too... sweet. to bad they didn't show parts from the movie on the back circular disk screen.

[gepit]

some of the most intense lighting was used for this part of the show and the circular screen up to that point had been used for most of the songs. This was the main event and had to be different. Maybe a movie projection would have detracted too much from the main lighting event, the opening of the ball

[bataction13]

saw this concert London 94, I will never forget it as long as I live. Watching this clip sends shivers down my spine. thanx for posting it.

[cb1313bb]

Wow man.. I can't even imagine! Were a lot of people "Tripping Out" haha

[hopsbrew75]

it was an amazing site to see this in person...

[newmanse]

simply...fantastic!

[mattdamatt]

[pogo14022002]

This is my best bit of the dvd and the song it truly is amazing definately gettin played at my funeral if i live that long !

[djhorizon]

Incredible band and incredible lighting show.. magnificent.. Was there in Aug. 94 in Oslo, greatest ever! Roger @ Norway

[DeFlePpardRoxX]

That solo takes away my breath...it's beyond words how magnificent Dave is.

[CloudedFuture89]

It literaly is the best. As it was voted #1 guitar solo of all time. The solo is just phenomenal. To be honest, it was this solo and the song itself wich made me such A huge Pink Floyd fan. =)

[chasec1117]

wow, incredible

[PFLOYD33]

one of the best songs and solos ever written

[royalarctic]

the best guitar player ever

just amazing

[pipepires]

Best band ever!

Best guitar solo ever!

david guilmour is huge,not only with the guitar but also for the things he does off the stage.

these guys are immortal ;)

[PinkFloydJackson]

That solo sends shivers down my spine

[hungjunior]

this is the greatest guitar solo of all time, hands down.

[bodycopy]

I was at this concert. 1994. Has to be the best concert I have ever attended, hands down. Got especially lucky because they chose to perform the entire Dark Side live after 1975. When it came to this song, I don't know if you can notice, but when the huge mirror ball (16 feet) comes on, everyone is looking away from the stage... this was pre-planned by the band.

[darksideofthemoo]

I doubt it somehow. If a huge great ball came hanging above my head I think I'd look up

[bodycopy]

well i guess the band thought of it too, right? and in that case they had planned it... anyway, what's the big deal? it was awesome nonetheless... you should've been there :)

[darksideofthemoo]

OK OK don't rub it in! I'm gutted that I couldn't go. Then again I was only 2 years old...

[gepit]

I think it was quite clever. I also attented this concert and to be honest most of us did not notice this gigantic ball until it was hit with several thousand watts of xennon lighting...yeah..you'd have to be blind not to notice it then

[AtzeNicoLy]

w-o-w

[toasty4you]

Wonderful, I'd do anything to be at that concert.

[Jimie562thejay]

Gilmour wud kick snowy n Waters arses anyday! jst listen 2 tht solo! Fuckn listen 2 it man lol unbelievable
