David Gilmour does not simply play the guitar. He tells a story with it.

At 70 years old. I STILL FEEL like I did when I first heard this song in the over 50 years ago. 👍👍😅

January, 2021, lying in hospital, Covid-19, stronger infection. This song, this performance, Dave's second solo... This significantly helped my recovery. Quite sure. This is not a song, this is a cure! Pure magic!

Still brings me to tears ...im 75

People in the audience are crying while singing along with the lyrics, and looking on speechless while he plays the solos. This is truly what music was meant for. Such raw emotion cannot be faked, or replaced. Only felt.

There are guitar players... There are guitar legends... There are guitar Gods... ...and then there is David Gilmour. No More words need to be said. Just watch and listen...

I have listened to this song over 100 times, it’s just never getting old, it’s breathtaking!

This is music at a higher level, never tired of listening to this song, Gilmour is like aged cognac, playing this guitar solo even better than back in the 80’s.

I don’t always listen to comfortably numb.... but when I do, so does the neighborhood

My husband wanted this at his funeral - he got it - very emotional listening to this wonderful piece of music.

One of the best songs ever written! He sounds just as smooth, both vocals and guitar solo, as the day he recorded it! Amazing talent!

This has to be one of the best solo performances ever I get goosebumps every time I listen to it Dave Gilmore legend

I took my son to see David Gilmour and his band at the Garden in NYC about 6 year ago, he was 17 at the time, he was so amazed and this song just blew him away. I never saw my son so mesmerized. He's now recording hi's own music inspired by artists such as Gilmour.

The South America performance of this song is my fav. The fans reactions are so raw.

This is not a guitar solo, this is not a song, it's something beyond this world and universe that is stronger than the nature and life itself! If I had to choose only one guitarist in the world to be like, it would be Gilmour! Thank you David for bringing us to tears with the most beautiful performance of ALL TIME!! Only David can get a Fender Stratocaster guitar, and any guitar to cry like that and express feelings... Just listen at 7:03... Totally beyond this world!

70 year old genius plays 40 year old piece of music ..... 20 year olds in the audience reduced to tears of joy ...... nuff said

Best guitar solo ever, in all its iterations and incarnations - no matter how many various times it has been played and recorded it is always the most impressive magical example of guitar virtuosity! Kudos and bravo to David!

David Gilmour must be one of the top guitarists in human history! A-Mazing!

I have been listening to rock for more than 40 years and this is still the finest guitar solo that I’ve ever heard! David is a icon!

Love seeing the younger generations enjoy this like we did back in the 70’s.

I can't watch David Gilmour playing this song without tears coming to my eyes. Every single goddamn time. Thank you Mr. Gilmour for creating music that touches my soul. No one else has done that with as much intensity as you. It's like being touched by an angel.

Sitting on the sea front in Galway listening to this masterpiece ❤️ today the 23/8/21 I'm 6 years clean and sober...oh the simple pleasures of life..🙏😊

Probably the most incredible version I've come across thus far, and there are many incredible versions. David was really feeding off of the audience's energy here. He went long. Amazingly long.

The audience's reaction is contagious. Despite speaking Portuguese, they knew the lyrics by heart. Emotion is what Brazilian people are made of.

When I saw that girl start to cry I couldn't stop the tears. What a beautiful song. Musical art isn't made like this anymore. And yes, the greatest guitar solo ever.

I have only recently discovered this version of Comfortably Numb and hands down I think it is the best version out there, the guitar solo here is just incredible. Best song ever!!!

At 4:12, the expression on the woman's face illustrates the very real, cautionary tale of this remarkable song. What a masterpiece.

I used to think that this was the best song ever played by pink floyd,,,, NOW AT 62 YEARS OF AGE IT STILL LEAVES ME COMFORTABLY NUMB!!!! 🤘🤙🤘🤙🤘🤙

Love this. I'm 97 years old. I love all the classic music Mozart Beethoven etc wroth hundreds of years ago. No surprise then that people love this stuff.

One of the Greatest solos ever.

One of the best guitar solo I ever heard.

I’ve probably heard this guitar solo 500+ times by now and I swear EVERYTIME it makes me literally forget about everything going on around me and I just focus on how amazing it is. Always sends a shiver down my spine. Prolly cure Covid-19 honestly...

I was there... crying like a baby

Greatest guitar solo in rock history

El mejor solo de guitarra jamás creado. El único tema que cada vez que lo escucho se me humedecen los ojos. Gracias PF y David por esta obra de arte. Gracias Totales!!

I traveled from Mexico to Argentina with my dad just to see David, and I got to admit that it was the best day of my life. December 18th, 2015 will be marked as one of the days I accomplished a dream that I had since I was a kid.

Quite literally the best song ever composed.

I have listened to this epic epic song hundreds of times in the past 42 years and I am never tired of it !!!! You can tell how old I am... lol Master DAVID is the Real MASTER... period!! I am also glad the young folks are enjoying it as well, that's the good thing, the bad thing is I am not quite sure if there will be another similar Master David again in the future to replace the Original Master David........ Greetings to all and enjoy Life....

One of the best guitar solos of all time, a song that reaches the soul, I never tire of listening to it, Gilmour or Pink Floyd are from other advanced civilizations 💊💉💪🏽👍🏽

Probably the best guitar solo ever written! Chills everytime...

The best solo of all time period.

Unfreaking real David Gilmour, the only one who created such a wonderful talent that makes the rock society to enjoy. Thanks David

Just.. WOW!!!! Young adults crying because they are so overwhelmed that this Man is actually in front of them for real.. bloody amazing!!

With 74 still the same voice. Long live David Gilmour. 💪

Гилмор бесподобен!!! Супер!!Дай Бог ему здоровья и долгих лет!!

Acho que de vez em quando David Gilmour assiste este vídeo e se emociona com esse povo maravilhoso que o ama imensamente. Nós, brasileiros, fomos muito bem representados por essa galera.

I'm 65 and I'm stil listening such a beautifull song, I'll listen to it forever, as long as I'm alive, I think, another 50 years, long live The band... and me...

Wow, You South Americans sure know how to appreciate a Timeless Masterpiece. Tingles! Love and respect to You All Jimmy. England. XXXXX

Tengo tal sentido de pertenencia, que me siento orgulloso de ver gente joven llorar y emocionarse con estos monstruos,como si fuera algo creado por mí. La música va más allá de edades. La música. Esto es otra cosa...

The GREATEST on stage solo EVER! I will watch this until it is no longer available. Watched it like 100 times now

DG gives it 110% EVERY TIME. That was maybe the best nine minutes I've ever spent. And the crowd reaction during the final windup was priceless. Since he's played that, what, maybe 500 times, a normal mortal would have a hard time getting it up, but not David Gilmour. I do believe he must have a sense of history when he plays it and realizes this is something every one in that audience is probably going to remember for the rest of their lives.

Unbelievable how good David Gilmour is live!! A true artist with priceless and timeless music!! A legend!

El mejor solo de la historia. Gilmour es único

I am getting goosebumps all over the body every time I listen to this song and the ending guitar solo. This amazing part of rock history, 40 years old an still one of the best ever written and played by one of the best guitarists, if not the best, of all century

When this song gets uplaoded you watch it everytime knowing no matter how many times you've heard it you'll get chills across your entire body. If you don't you're not human. Music dies a little more each time we lose a member of this band. R.I.p. richard wright and Sid.

Rarely does it happen that a guitar solo brings tears to your eyes

I saw Pink Floyd in 1994 and was pretty close to the stage. I remember specifically watching Gilmour during the solo for Comfortably Numb and thinking I would never see something so phenomenal in person ever again. I was right.

El día que David no esté. Ese día el Rock habrá perdido un parte de el. Pero su legado quedará intacto en los corazones y mentes de las personas que de verdad lo merecen.

The most amazing part of this is how people in their 20s are getting rocked by a 70 year old playing a 40 year old solo.

Gilmour toca como um menino, incrível, incomparável, insubstituível . Parabéns a toda Banda !!!

Love the song and the guitar solos. David’s phrasing is probably unmatched by any other guitarist. There are many great guitarists, both past and present, so many different styles and influences out there. I guess if a song really resonates with you, speaks to you, you feel it in your soul and it can move you to tears (happy or sad), then the artist has truly created something great. I don’t subscribe to the theory that all music now is rubbish. There are lots of great guitarists and bands out there still! I just think I was spoiled as a kid, as I didn’t really have to search for great music, it was everywhere. But, If you can, get out to see some bands, famous or local ones, go to festivals etc. Money is tight for many folks at the minute, but Spotify and Amazon Music aren’t super expensive, plus there’s KZfaq and others too. There’s plenty of great songs and musicians out there, you just have to dig a little deeper below the surface to find them. Enjoy the journey😃

Cada vez que escucho PINKFLOYD me trasporta a mi juventud y tengo 66 años ,son lo mejor de lo mejor ,pero me quedo sin palabras cuando veo en un concierto de PinkFloyd a la juventud vibrar con su música, esto me demuestra que después de los años la juventud sabe valorar lo bueno y lo inmejorable ,viva PINKFLOYD LO SEGUIRE ESCUCHANDO DESDE LEÓN ESPAÑA 👋

1:31: "My hands felt just like two balloons". I am in the center of the screen with open arms, in ecstasy. Memorable!

I'm 51 and still watching young people getting emotional like I did 30 years ago.. Pink Floyd, long live David Gilmour

I always loved pink floyd above all. He plays guitar like spreading butter on bread.. What a perfection with ease. That's called legend with a legendary experience.

Nearly 45 years ago I saw my first pink Floyd concert, I was hooked and to this day still am. I'm much older but my heart and soul are forever young. I'm blessed with a wife of 41 years grown kids n grandkids. Yep, I've lived my life comfortably numb😊👍

Gilmour's just on fire here. It's the passion of the crowd and Dave's passion reciprocating and feeding off each other. Fucking awesome😊

The fact that these young people are almost all singing along is amazing. Some of them are in tears. This is a remarkable video of an incredible performance. Musical genius stays alive forever and Gilmour is one of the geniuses of the music revolution of the 60's & 70's.

Just fantastic Grew up with them from the 70’s The magic never fade’s 👍🏾 to PF and DG Thanks for writing Roger

What a treat for our South American brothers and sisters to see an immortal musician like Gilmour that us in the West have gotten a chance to see live every now and then.

Guitarrista extraordinário. Cantor excepcional. Produção espetacular. Isso é música de verdade.

David Gilmore is truly a God! Can’t imagine being able to bring 50,000 people to tears with such emotion!! I watched him up- close in the 80s and now with songs from The Wall;; Especially COMFORTABLY NUMB!! I have played guitar for 30 years and still get Absolutely Numb watch that man!! Mr Gilmore is a Asset TO ALL HUMANS on this planet and his music will play on LONG after he has arrived in Heaven!!! God himself will welcome David Gilmore!!! Rock on Sir !!! We ALL ARE LISTENING!!!!

No one has ever left a Pink Floyd/Gilmour concert disappointed. He has always given the fans more than their money's worth. 'Comfortably Numb' will be played long into the future as one of the greatest guitar solo's in the history of Rock. I've been a follower since the 60's.

This is the legend performing. David the legend.

I love how at 4:14 this girl can not hold her tears any longer, I guess all of us Floyd fans have experienced that tears of joy feeling. Very beautiful....

True legend right there! Thank you Pink Floyd for all the years of great rock & roll!!

I still find it amazing how totally engaged the audience are, having their very best time.

Comfortably Numb is one of the best songs ever created. You can certainly enjoy the singing.. or take it that the words are just foreplay for the guitar solo. This song never gets old, no matter the decade or event it gets played.

70 year old rocker has tears running down so much I can't breathe. Such great lead guitar playing. 😍😭😭😅😅😍😍

Впервые, будучи студентом, в конце 70ых услышал Пинк Флойд. И с тех пор вот уже более 40 лет слушаю и не перестаю восхищаться ими. "Подсадил" сына и внуков 😂 на эту легендарную группу.

이곡이 발표된지 40년이 지났는데도 언제나 새롭고 감동받습니다 부디 건강하시고요 저의 청소년부터 가장 좋아해온 데이비드 길모어님 존경합니다♡♡♡

My Bro's theme tune, gone but never forgotten. Sandy. R.I.P

What can we say after that ? David Gilmour. The Crowd. The Sound. The Solo. My Mac screen is full of tears. Peace (and Good Health) to all of youGgood People out there.

There simply are no words. I'm both sad and happy. Sad because I likely will never see another such incredible musical genius playing with such artistry again. Happy because I was born at a time where I have been able to love, appreciate and feel this song for 51 years of my life, and I love it more every single time I hear it. It makes me tear up, lump in throat, and waves of emotion come over me. Every.single.time. This is part of me. If someone doesn't appreciate this music, then Heaven help them, for they are lost!!!

My roommate at East Tennessee State University in 1976 had every Pink Floyd album out to that point. That's when I really began to understand what we were listening to and how off the chart they were! We, the baby boomer generation, produced, by far, the greatest rock music ever imagined! Hey, and don't forget Clapton!

He's the modern day Bach or Chopin. They'll speak of Pink Floyd and David forever. Brings tears every time I hear it and I'm 71 effn years old. The best, bar none the best solo ever. Thank you David.

4:11 the absolute power of music simply amazing, emotionally South American crowds are something else.

I attended the Santiago, Chile show and you can't imagine the energy of people in their 70's to teenagers and kids enjoying and crying because of this moment, we always have to wait lots of years, even DECADES for being able to see bands and musicians playing the music of our life in our countries. This video perfectly show our joy, emotion and happines. Hope to see you back here David. Ps. Best concert ever, and i've been in A LOT of concerts.

Wonderful show, I was there that day, it was something really spectacular, indescribably fabulous!!!

Que honra ter essa banda maravilhosa tão perto de nós! Emocionante! Amo demais! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤❤❤❤

It's so touching to see this audience experiencing what can only be described as pure ecstasy. As a visual artist myself, I must concede that music is the greatest art form man has ever invented.

Look how happy those fans are, that is what great music is all about!!!!

Now that’s what I call legendary This song has gone down in history as having the best guitar solo ever Cheers from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺

What a solo,breathtaking, stunning. GUITAR HERO.

With everything that is going on in the world today, everyone should listen to this sensational piece of music and immerse themselves in Gilmour's wonderfully emotional playing.

I'm 68 now and one of the many best things about being this old is having been able to see PF so many times beginning in 1971 that I've lost count. To this day Mr. Gilmour is the only guitarist and this the only solo that's ever made me wipe away streams of tears. And it still does.

If a song is this great and a solo this amazing it doesn't matter how old it is. It will always inspire and move people!

Melhor banda do mundo, melhores músicas do mundo. Melhor música!

Always plays it different every time BECAUSE he can!!! Pure legend this solo is just!!! No words can describe,full of pure emotions tells a story

The greatest rock song ever written, No ifs or butt's- and including the finest guitar solo in all time. No more to be said - good night and god bless 🙏🙏🙏
