What is the meaning to the song 'Comfortably Numb'?
Great question! There's actually a few ways to look at it.The song is from Pink Floyd's 1979 album The Wall, in which an archetypal rock star named "Pink" grows increasingly isolated as a result of traumatic events of his past and present. These events lead to his building a metaphorical "wall" to separate him from the outside world, using these events as "bricks". The song "Comfortably Numb" shows his isolation after he builds the wall.Primary songwriter Roger Waters and director Alan Parker approached the film project "The Wall" as a feature-length music video, with the songs telling the story (which is fleshed out quite a bit more with the accompanying visuals). During "Comfortably Numb", Pink is still isolated, but we also observe him shaving his head, eyebrows, chest-hair, etc. This symbolizes Pink's reversion to a fetal state, out of which he will be reborn as a proto-fascist later in the film ("In The Flesh" and "Run Like Hell").Like many of the songs on The Wall, Waters drew upon his own personal experiences when writing the lyrics. In the case of "Comfortably Numb", he recalled being very ill with stomach cramps while the band was on tour, and being administered a tranquilizer (the lyric "just a little pinprick" alluding to the injection). The medicine made his hands feel "like two balloons" and took away his pain ("there is no pain, you are receding").Most of the songs on The Wall were written by Waters alone; once his concept was complete, he presented the song cycle to the band, who then added their parts with strict supervision from Waters. In the place of "Comfortably Numb" was a shorter song called "The Doctor" that barely resembled the finished product. Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour added a chord progression for the chorus, and of course added his iconic guitar solos. At that point it was renamed "Comfortably Numb", and was one of the only tracks on "The Wall" that was co-written.Why is this important, you ask? Well, at the time The Wall was being recorded, Gilmour and Waters hated each other bitterly. They'd barely talk to each other, much less cooperate in the songwriting process. And after The Wall, the band released another Waters project The Final Cut, after which Waters left the band for good. So in a way, "Comfortably Numb" could be seen as the last time the two primary songwriters of Pink Floyd worked together, before their own wall separated them for 25 years.
Who is Rachel Brannock?
Rachel Brannock may refer to the session vocalist who toured with Pink Floyd between 1987 and 1989 under the stage name Rachel Fury. She is probably best known for her vocal performance of "The Great Gig In The Sky" on the Delicate Sound Of Thunder tour as well as for her duet with lead guitarist and vocalist David Gilmour on the track "Comfortably Numb" (on that same tour). Brannock had been introduced to the band by notable producer James Guthrie who was in a relationship with her around the mid 1980's. Brannock has been the subject of much speculation in the Pink Floyd fan community as to just what happened to her after her engagement with Pink Floyd. It has been suggested that Brannock has not performed as a vocalist since aprox. 1995 and may have become an animal rights activist. This however, remains unconfirmed. A Facebook page for the Brannock family includes a photo of Rachel Brannock from her time with Pink Floyd.
