“During lockdown I made a demo of a new version of \u2018Comfortably Numb\u2018 as an opener for our new show,” Waters explains. “I pitched it a whole step down, in A Minor, to make it darker and arranged it with no solos, except over the outro chord sequence, where there is a heartrendingly beautiful female vocal solo from Shanay Johnson<\/strong>, one of our new singers.”<\/p>\n
