Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb (with lyrics)



Comfortably Numb relates to One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest as it is conversation between a doctor and a mental patient and it has a strong connection to drug use and LSD. It even had the working title "The Doctor" before it was officially changed to "Comfortably Numb." This song also came out in 1979, during the decade that spent much of its time reflecting on the counterculture of the 60s.

  1. I love Pink Floyd! My favorite song is "On the Turning Away" but "Comfortably Numb" is a great one too. I didn't even think of this connection when I first started reading One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
