They achieved international acclaim with their progressive and psychedelic music. Distinguished by their use of philosophical lyrics, sonic experimentation, extended compositions and elaborate live shows, they are one of the most commercially successful and musically influential groups in the history of popular music.</p><p>"Comfortably Numb" (working title "The Doctor") is a song by the English rock band Pink Floyd, which first appears on the 1979 double album The Wall. It was also released as a single in 1980 with "Hey You" as the B-side. It is one of only three songs on the album for which writing credits are shared between bassist Roger Waters and guitarist David Gilmour. The chorus melody was written by Gilmour while Waters contributed the lyrics and the music for the verses. An early version of the song was included under the working title on the "Immersion Box Set" of The Wall, released in 2012.</p><p>The song is one of Pink Floyd's most famous, and is renowned especially for its guitar solos in the middle and at the end of the song. In 2004, the song was ranked number 314 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. In 2005, it became the last song ever to be performed by Waters, Gilmour, keyboardist Richard Wright, and drummer Nick Mason together. In 2011, the song was ranked 5th in the BBC Radio 4's listeners' Desert Island Discs choices. The two guitar solos were ranked as the greatest guitar solos of all time by both Planet Rock listeners and WatchMojo.com. Pink Floyd were inducted into the US Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996, and the UK Music Hall of Fame in 2005. By 2013, the band had sold more than 250 million records worldwide, including 75 million certified units in the United States.</p><p><br></p><p>Pink Floyd Lyrics</p><p>"Comfortably Numb"</p><p><br></p><p>Hello</p><p>Is there anybody in there?</p><p>Just nod if you can hear me</p><p>Is there anyone at home?</p><p><br></p><p>Come on now</p><p>I hear you're feeling down</p><p>Well, I can ease your pain</p><p>And get you on your feet again</p><p><br></p><p>Relax</p><p>I'll need some information first</p><p>Just the basic facts</p><p>Can you show me where it hurts?</p><p><br></p><p>There is no pain, you are receding</p><p>A distant ship smoke on the horizon</p><p>You are only coming through in waves</p><p>Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying</p><p>When I was a child I had a fever</p><p>My hands felt just like two balloons</p><p>Now I've got that feeling once again</p><p>I can't explain, you would not understand</p><p>This is not how I am</p><p>I have become comfortably numb</p><p><br></p><p>I have become comfortably numb</p><p><br></p><p>O.K.</p><p>Just a little pin prick</p><p>There'll be no more aaaaaaaah!</p><p>But you may feel a little sick</p><p><br></p><p>Can you stand up?</p><p>I do believe it's working, good</p><p>That'll keep you going through the show</p><p>Come on, it's time to go</p><p><br></p><p>There is no pain you are receding</p><p>A distant ship smoke on the horizon</p><p>You are only coming through in waves</p><p>Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying</p><p>When I was a child</p><p>I caught a fleeting glimpse</p><p>Out of the corner of my eye</p><p>I turned to look but it was gone</p><p>I cannot put my finger on it now</p><p>The child is grown</p><p>The dream is gone</p><p>I have become comfortably numb</p><p><br></p><p>Songwriters: David Jon Gilmour / Roger Waters</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><div><br></div><p><br></p>
