Yeah cus he bends it.......

LOL=)

BIG FACTS.!!

You were talking.covers...please react to Heart's cover of Led Zeppelin's Stairway to Heaven at the Kennedy Center Honors.

Slightly paraphrasing there but the comment speaks volumes

I saw that show live as well, lot's of pot smoked during this.

Bucminster lucky sons of bitches

I was there too. Euphoria!

@@1ZosoLZ LMFAO😂

Bleep bloop blop

LMAO, f'kn awesome dude!

TheLastGarou 😆 so right!

ha ha ha your right

Best comment ever 😂

BEST COMMENT EVER..KUDOS

People overuse "one of the best..." but I can totally agree with this one

Yeah. No hyperbole there. It really is. Hard to fathom the emotion he can bring with his playing.

I've never said this about one before, but that was the PERFECT solo!!!!!!

Hotel California solo is also regarded as perhaps the best

Do thank god for the suffering

Well put

Galo De La Cruz an that’s a fact 👌

It's Gilmour.

Just one bend and he can scream laughter and sorrow all at once

Ive been saying this forever. Stevie Ray Vaughan is my favorite of all time, and Gilmour is a close second.

I discovered this album in 1999 and it blew me the fuck away

@@vhscopyofseinfeld Goes beyond genres. Its human. Seriously. Its cliche as shit but it just is.

Nightwish are the only ones coming close. Check out Greatest Show on Earth.

@@CDX7 coming close 😁😁. We will need to agree to disagree on that one

I certainly agree with the "divine revelation" thing. I've seen Gilmour three times, and witnessed Comfortably Numb twice (sadly, never as Pink Floyd, but his solo stuff is almost as good!). It is almost a spiritual experience! The atmosphere in the Royal Albert Hall was incredible.

Saw them twice on that tour, and once on the previous tour. Those three concerts are still on my top 10 shows. And I’ve been to more than 2300 concerts.

I saw this tour; it was at Earls Court in London.

That was the acid 😁

I agree, saw this tour as well and yeah, thats basically what i saw as well. Nobody wanted to miss a note.

Maybe? Then listen to it again.

Nah, that would be brothers in arms (on the night live).

i dont usually play comparisms, but kirk hammet isnt in the same league as gilmour, nobody is.

It's my ringtone.

I know it's like the easiest part of the solo to perform, but I really love the bit at 8:45. So much fucking soul

EVER!!!!!

not one of the. Far best.

THE BEST EVERRRRRR YESSSSS

The only stadium big enough for that is heaven!

@@EchoesDaBear or at the minimum, multiple galaxies.

They never will

They are not ready!!

YESSSSSSSSSS....

Music is real! All of our emotions in the form of notes... Words cannot express what music can do to us!

Robert Fisher Close he plugs it into your soul!

I once read that his surname is spelled Gilmour. Hint.

He did, however, God thought it wasn't a big enough sound to scare away the devil so he just plugged it into an amp and we humans heard it, Because we are much more discerning! We thought , SHIT THATS GOOD! God kinda thought the same and that's were we are.... we were right all the time!"

and they would be correct.

Gabriel Berilli yea i love guitar solos and among my favorites are this one, motley crue home sweet home, dirty looks “tokyo”, autograph more than a million miles, and many more

It certainly changes your perspective of what true music IS.

slayerrocks2 - You stole that from Carlos! ;)

@@MissAstorDancer Carlos who? Original material only, I assure you.

@@slayerrocks2 - No offense intended. Carlos Santana is famous for saying that "music can change your molecular structure". But I know it's been studied scientifically for a long time, so I'm aware he didn't invent the idea, nor did you. I guess it's also true that there really is NO original thought! Regardless, I certainly agree with you/him/science, not only about Gilmour's guitar, but also Carlos', and countless other artists/bands/pieces of music! Thank goodness for the music!

@@MissAstorDancer Sorry if I made you think you needed to write that response. I did just think that up (The music of Floyd puts me in an inner/outer-space, introspective mood). I certainly took no offense from your comment. Thanks for the info on Santana too. It's all about the music 🎼🎶🎶🎵

Electric guitar has a wrong name. This instrument's name is Sir Mr David Guilmour

Some stop it a few seconds in and say I am speechless. And then then carry on telling us how speechless they are!

Rod Jubair Every true amazing musicians (Page, Clapton, Knopfler etc.) look like normal next door neighbours... people like Slash etc. need an image to sound decent. Gimmick is the worst enemy of heavy metal. I have met Mark Knopfler in some airport in 2012-2013...he looks and behaves like a perfectly normal person..

@@Forwhomthebelltolls24 whats wrong with slash? Slash is actually much like david he too expresses his emotions through his guitar. Slash has created many memorable solos with gnr. His solo in sweet child o'mine and November rain is right there as one of the best solos of all time. There's nothing wrong his image because he mix it with great talent. You want someone that "needs an image to sound descent"? Try buckethead. Lol. Slash is one of those guys dude, gilmour, gary moore,slash, those guys has that thing where they make connections through their solos they dont even need any of those sweep picking or shredding to show off their skills. They do can express things in like 2-3 notes what other guitarist cant even express in one song.

Kristofer Ramirez So you’re saying Slash is a better guitarist than Buckethead? I beg to disagree very very strongly...sure Buckethead has released some absolutely crazy stuff (in a bad way), but he’s probably the most versatile guitar player around ( almost at the same level of Satriani or Malmsteen ) around. I love Appetite for destruction, sure it’s a legendary album and Slash is one of the most influential guitar player, but come n man!! Buckethead is a crazy genius!! Nothing is wrong with Slash...but he probably spend a little too much in front of the mirror... listen to Big Sur Moon if you haven't already and honestly tell me, if Slash (or anyone) can come up with something like that!! Yes, I would agree that entire KFC bucket thing is gimmicky.. but man...that guy is genuinely insane

@@Forwhomthebelltolls24 in my ears slash is way better than buckethead. Why? Because with buckethead its all technical. But with slash i can understand his solo. It speaks to me. Buckethead can shred crazy fast notes in one song but even when the song is done i cant still understand what he really is trying to express. While with slash, he can just bend 2 notes and i get it already. i dont expect you to understand cause not alot of people gets slash's solo. Cause people always say slash is trash cause he doesn't play fast riffs or solos. But the truth is they just dont get it.

@G-Funk 1 Come on! That's bit hard, but he has sold his image very successfully...Slash always sucks with fast solos, but he could be a very good Blues guitarist, he really shines with slower stuff

God : How many times you would listen this insane music? God AKA David Gilmour: Yes

I used to say Pagey's solo in stairway 1973 madison square garden was the best solo ever but after watching Gilmour in pompeii 2016, I changed my mind

I don't know about that November Rain by Guns N Rose's has 3 amazing solos

@@adamknight7041 so did Estranged by Guns N roses but Nothing Tops Pink Floyd

Is it bad that I envy you so much for being there??? Argh!!!

That was my favorite song from that concert, but Shine On You Crazy Diamond was phenomenal as well!!

I see a lot of people put that Fade To Black solo in their top 10 solos all the time. Don’t act like someone giving it high praise doesn’t make sense

Kirk who?

Mau Gonzalez hammett

These guys are really, really, REALLY confused

PotawatomiThunderNew no I absolutely understand why somebody would put it in their top 10, I think what he is saying is that they are comparing apples to oranges. They are 2 completely different types of solos.

The solo in Time is also pretty epic

The CN from the New Orleans Superdome in 1994 is David's personal favorite version from this tour.

Oh man, I'd give my left nut to have seen one of the Earl's Court shows, let alone been on the tour. You are one very fortunate man.

Saw Vancouver show !

Marc Brickman is a genius.

@@dixienormous2440 That's right, an incredible talent and visionary

Yeah, just getting into it and dang its finished .

Lol exactly. kirk is good, but he’s no icon

And raised about $20M for the collection I believe.

Kirk is good but he's no David Gilmour no were near💯💯

Really ?! What's the name of the auction?

@@pineapplecan_1293 Christie's held the auction. The price is with their commission added. It went from $260,000 to $3.3 million in 30 seconds. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fdabgpmLqszRhpc.html

Sam Khan Yeah it’s not even a question and I love metal

Really? Hahahahahahahaha. I'm sure Gilmour and Hammett care about your juvenile pissing contests

Two completely different styles. Chalk and cheese. Apples and oranges.

I agree, Gilmour is a God, but can’t he have his opinion?

Is it really Kirks creation? or James?

And I like that David sings Received Pronunciation English. Example: "I can't explain"...compare it to how "the Who sing the same words ( "I can't explain").

agree

I love it

Totally agree, that version have the best solo ever!

Thats an awesome quote👌👍

@Sam I’d put them both in the top 5 without a doubt. Probably even top 3.

This is common knoledge

David Gilmour is not only one of the greatest guitarist of all time & he is one of the greatest singer as well.

You lucky git I saw PF in 73 Earl's Court DSIDE but this Pulse concert is recognised as floyds greatest outing Gilmour has gotten better over the years . I'm fussy about music and very eclectic Opera too Rap. Floyd are for me are the masters of deep rock.

Sing it does 💙🎶🎵🎶 🎸 🎶🎵🎶💖😍

Amen

I've seen the last 2 tour concerts. 1988 in Koln, West Germany and 1994 in Arizona. The greatest ever.

She looked like she was doing everything except paying attention

It's like paying no attention to God while He is giving you His ten orders

King? King? David Gilmour is God. Repeat David Gilmour is God.

David Gilmore is in his own universe...

Any Pink Floyd was average for their times (70s), but Pink Floyd together were at the top of their times. Horatius named it "aurea mediocritas" long before.

I’m pretty sure he was referring to the metal genre when he said that

Antonio Maraspin I don’t understand why you called pink Floyd average for the 70’s. could you go into more detail to explain what you meant.

For sure. Gilmour is the GOAT.

This x100

Two completely different styles of playing. Gilmore can't play what Kirk does and vice versa.

Hammett is a dead skunk in the middle of the road compared to Gilmour.

Kirk in ''Fade to black'' takes us close to the black hole in the center of the galaxy. But be careful, he has a lot of support from Hetfield and Trujillo in the peak of the room. Of course, Metallica likes to rub up against black holes. David Gilmour has no need for this support in Comfortably Numb. Why? Because it makes us realize the beauty of galaxy harmony. This universe, which despite the black holes, makes us all gravitate in an immense and colossal harmony; so much greater than the simple human nature. There's one another aspect you need to realize. Pink Floyd was founded in the late 1960s. It was the wave of the: ''Yeah. . . Yeah. . . Yeah'' of the Beatles. British like them, but they come with this music straight out of another world; a kind of angelic world. In conclusion, they are also the inventors of this kind of large-scale show. Before, it was practically just the scene, some basic lighting effects and that was it. Ask yourself this question? Could Metallica have been born without them? Honestly, I'm not sure. Finally do you know how old Kirk Hammett was when Pink Floyd was recorded in Pompeii? He was 10 years old. I strongly recommend you to listen this movie on KZfaq '' Pink Floyd Pompeii''. . . Phew!. . . . They were already occupying a galaxy from the Big Bang. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r5N1asKHrbLam3k.html (part 1) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pp5pnqShmdjecnk.html (part 2)

That High Hopes solo is ridiculous!!!!!!! Unreal

the solo from sorrow (at pulse ) is better imo

Very well put my friend. Enough said

Honestly i don't think even Kirk himself would agree with Vin. He's a Scorpions fans and said in an interview they are a big part of who he is as a musician/guitarist and that he would not be the player that he is today without them and also metallica did a doodle on one of their concerts for Gilmour on his 73rd birthday.

@@metalwhore Gilmour.

420since1974 sorry my bad u right I fixed it

@@metalwhore No worries, it's just one of my very few pet peeves. Peace.

Gilmour would win with his eyes and ears shut.

I love it during the second chorus when he looks directly at the camera and smiles! Such a great talent gone too soon.

Nice of you to mention Richard. RIP.

Wright was the best pianist ever RIP Richard William Wright 7/28/1943-9/15/08 Feel Comfortably Numb Wright 🙏🏻

and by cliking in that time link you made me listen this solo once again, thks anyway the count goes already over 1 thoussand times for sure.

I agree plastic bottle

great reaction to a real masterpiece captured forever.

J Sanders One of my all time favourite live solos is Fleetwood Mac “The Green Manalishi” in Sweden 1970.

Shspurs1 yeah good song, if only mac had stayed on that style

its complete garbage.

@@KingOfHell94 Don't be soo rude. It was long and boring, but not garbage.

@@justletitallend8997 rude towards who lol? :D

@@KingOfHell94 Towards to the people who thinks that this is the greatest thing from the greates band with the greates guitarist. It is soo fucking great that the simple human mind can't understand the greatness of it! lol

@@justletitallend8997 well i said that this version is garbage, if you dont agree w/e, now if anyone is offended by what i said, they can go fuck themselves.

My pastors have used this song as part of their sermon before

patrick perry My catholic school religion teacher played us John Lennon’s Imagine. One of the most famous anti religious songs of all time.

All PF members are atheists so lol.

nagaslrac I would guess a large percentage are not religious.

Hey jdub - couldn’t agree more. I saw this show at another venue , was intense.

hahahahahahah.....nice.

As Arthur Schopenhauer said about women.

Yeah Myrealnameright nice. Very nice.

I've got it on twin double disc dvd..... pink Floyd - live at Earls Court - pulse 1994 ...... still to this very day I watch it I'm blown away in a trance everytime I watch it 😍 my mum used to play pink Floyd on CD when I was like 6/7 yrs old ...... 25 yrs later I'm keeping their spirit alive 😊👌❤💯😍
