AMAZING BANDS LIKE PINK FLOYD, GUNS AND ROSES, TRIUMPHM AND SO ON , IT ALMOST SEEMS LIKE ONLY THEY COULD OF MADE THE SONGS THEY MADE , IF OUR YOUNG GENERATION MY GENERATION CANT COME TOGETHER WITH MUSIC THAT'LL MAKE YOU CRY WE WILL BE STUCK WITH THIS POP CRAP FOREVER.
OH MY FRIENDS , HOW I DO MISS YOU. DEATH WILL SOMEDAY PULL ME TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WALL. AND I WILL BE WITH YOU ! BUT FOR NOW ALL I CAN SAY IS WISH YOU WERE HERE!!!!! THE LAST TIME I SAW YOU ! IT WAS A MIST OF RED! AND I DID NOT EVEN SAY GOOD BY!! YOU BURN AND IN PULLED APART. HOW I WISH I COULD HAVE SAID I LOVE YOU GUY! BUT FOR NOW WISH YOU WERE HERE... VIETNAM 69
There just ain't nuttin like it. Not ever.. or ever again. I was 16 when they first published it. Now as I contemplate retiring... I love it more than ever. And now I can afford the best of the best remastering equipment for real quality playback....
This one and "Learning to Fly" really do it for me... and Dark Side of the Moon of course....
it takes the write guys to meet at the right time there is alot of great artist out there its one in a billon that they meet at the same time a stroke of good luck pink floyde is a prime example dennis west seneca ny
@jayson201 ofc trillions of people dont exist that statement he made just means even those not thought of should know music at its purest form is being displayed in such a form the human mind can do nothing but call it art.
To my beautiful husband..where ever you are...I do wish you were here..but we will meet again...this song brings me some inner peace and is sent to you with all my love xo I do cry. laugh. hug and sing...for all the beautiful memories we shared <3
yeah i get that feeling too i miss alot of friends every time i hear this song some dead some living and some almost forgoten its just a song that makes me remember the good old days yo

Thats an absolute false statement, Dave originally composed and arranged the song in its musical entirity and then Waters came up with the lyrics, which are great. That fact is doccumented in the interviews that appear in VH1's Rock Legends Pink Floyd documentary. The song is much more Gilmours than Waters: he composed, arranged and sang it, while Waters did only the lyrics.
I'll go one better and offer this tidbit - if you read the Miles documentary, Waters mentions that he had orignally written "Wish you were Here" (the words) as a poem, which they later decided to set to Gilmour's music with some changes to the lyric.
Waters will say anything, but the truth remains that the song as we know it started in Gilmour's head, melodically and harmonically. Waters came up with some old scribblings and made a masterpiece lyric out of them, that doesn't make him the author of the song.
Today is a sad day, Richard Wright died earlier this day of cancer. I'm gonna miss him so bad!! they were reuniting this year, the story was having a happy ending, now it's all fucked up.
Ricky, you gave the best of yourself, your humble character, your compelling humanity and your infinite talent. You moved us deeply with your art, now you break all of our hearts as you say goodbye.
Time is gone, the song is over. You'll be playing a Great Gig in the Sky tonight, Rick.
Never said it made him the author of the song. "Wish you were Here" is one of those Floyd songs that shows the fantastic things that Gilmour and Waters could come up with together when they each did what they did best (other examples being "Comfortably Numb," "Dogs," etc. . Fortunately we got an entire album's worth of it (DSotM) before the collaborative energies in the band began to get warped by Waters' egomania.
I'd say Meddle, DSotM, WYWH and ANIMALs. I do like the Wall too, but it's too Waters sided. It features some works of genius, but the whole thing is monstruous, very hard to enjoy as a whole, comparatively.
@LYMBO2006 You kind of have to listen to the wall in one go to get the impact of it, it is rather impractical I guess. I enjoy it a lot though, even though some tracks stick out better than others.
@LYMBO2006 Sounds fair to me...Gilmour the craziest musician who is also a crazy phylospher and Waters the craziest phylosopher who is also a crazy musician,..
That is for sure...I think that Roger Waters and David Gilmour are incomparable though. I've seen them both in concert together, and I've seen them both individually, and I think that they're both equally legendary...

So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
