Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb


This is a live performance by English rock band Pink Floyd performing the song "Comfortably Numb" live from the Live 8 concert in Hyde Park, London in 2005. The song first appeared on the band's infamous double album "The Wall" from 1979. The song was released as a single the same year. The writing credit for this song is shared between guitarist David Gilmour and bassist and singer Roger Waters, Gilmour composed most of the music and Waters wrote the lyrics.
One of the things that the song is most known for are the two guitar solos played by Gilmour. There is a chorus solo which is in the key of D major, and the long outro solo is in the key of B minor.
It's a great and mellow song, and one of the band's most well known and really a great tune.

Enjoy ; )
