Dar Williams covers Pink Floyd with a little help from Ani DiFranco. I'm setting myself up for an asskicking but I might prefer this version over the original. Kick away, folks.

  • If you're gonna cover Pink Floyd, you damn well better BRING IT!!! Cover "Comfortably Numb", you need to blow me away!!! Consider me blown away... My rating on a 1 - 10 scale: Floyd - 10, Williams - 9.85. How do you improve upon perfection? You don't. But with appropriate vision, respect & talent, you can come pretty damn close to matching it.

  • amazing. truly amazing. easily one of the best covers i have ever heard.

  • Im not one for covers but I LOVE THIS!!! I love the original but the way Dar sings it gives it the woman's interpretation and its beautiful!!

  • spettacoloooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!

    

  • Dar Williams is truly one of my favorite artists. She explores deeply and professionally every avenue and genre of music. If you choose to explore her body of work I am certain everyone will find something they enjoy. Once again she has hit another one out of the park for me with Comfortably Numb.

  • first of all i think pink floyd is a crap group but this is a good song done by a pretty good singer

  • First of all i am a huge cover fan. I love them and i search for them all the time. I have to disagree with most here. I dont like the vocals at all the echo thing is anoying. The woman has a great voice for sure. I also dont like Bowies cover either. It just doesnt sound right. My favorite cover of this song is by Van Morrison. I dont know why his voice is no where near Gilmours. But there is something about his voice that he just belts it out. Just my worthless 2 cents worth.

  • She's got such a beautiful voice, it's hypnotic to listen to her sing this. I love Pink Floyd and she actually does this song justice!

  • i prefer it to the original as well. 

  • love this cover .....and i love the bowie cover also .... is it as good as floyds ... naaah

  • i like dar williams...i like comfortably numb...this really works for me...

  • Thank you! It's very different from Pink Floyd's performances, but fascinating in its own way. :)

    I wouldn't prefer it to the original, but no asskicking from me.
