What Do You Want From Me by Pink Floyd.

David Gilmour intro style solo.

Played on an 80’s MIJ Fender Stratocaster on bridge pick up into a NUX M8 amp set to “metal” with analogue delay.

A lesson in blues economy around the 12th fret Em pentatonic becomes huge sounding! The heavy blues rock maestro’s play on Division Bell returns to the style & great form that helped make Pink Floyd huge in the 70s.

“What Do You Want from Me” is a song by Pink Floyd featured on their 1994 album, The Division Bell. Richard Wright and David Gilmour composed the music, with Gilmour and his then-girlfriend and subsequent wife Polly Samson supplying the lyrics. A live version from Pulse was released as a single in Canada, reaching number 28 in the Canadian Top Singles charts.
