  • My Dad bought the album this is off of for his brother out of his first pay check. When my Uncle died through MRSA, it was learnt that the Funeral song Uncle John chose was this song. Meant a lot to my Dad, and means alot to me.

  • @KurtCobainologist I don't use my account much, or reply to people, but your comment begs the question: Do you have any friends at all? Would you be happy if your mother and best friend were taken away? This is why I hate society.

    (I would say that to your face)

  • perfection

  • mom

  • Just got my very first Iphone. This song is going straight to my ringtone!

    THANKS FOR KEEP THE "REAL INTRO". Everyone else skips the talking in the beginning :(

  • @dogloverhsm3 i think it was a play on her last name and the word VAGINA? Duh LOL

  • @138heather

  • Best Song Ever

  • @melmccon13 its gay that his best friend was there for him when his fucking mom died?

    what has happened to this world

  • @oooMTBMTBooo

    fuck you

  • @melmccon13 wow, that's a low quality piece of trolling. Are you ten?

  • @KurtCobainologist Wish you weren't here, or alive at all.

  • This song will live on forever... one of the greatest ever. I miss you dad, glad you showed me this song!

  • @KurtCobainologist Why do you bother dragging your lonely ass out of bed every morning? To go on the internet where you can insult people to make yourself feel better and have no consequence? There's a reason you've never had anyone like you before man, and that's because you're a predictable worthless person. Your two sentence comment showed me what a pathetic excuse for a life you are. A two sentence comment, that's it...

    P.S, you disgrace Pink Floyd

  • Wish, wish you were here. Friends and family. How I wish you were here.....

  • @xxdarrenmillerxx sorry sweetie you need a check-up.....calm down and listen...how wish you're u were here........

  • @KurtCobainologist wow what a fucking dick. You probably don't care but I hope you fucking die.

  • @KurtCobainologist How are you gonna talk about someone like that, when you never even knew them?

  • @KurtCobainologist Great song by the way...

  • Comment removed

  • @KurtCobainologist you are a self centred CUNT

  • LOVE this song, cheers! x0]

  • reminds me of the best boyfriend i ever head.

  • ..... so uhh can i ask what the fuck is that noise at 0:42 ?

  • @yourpineapple1, I envision someone sitting on the edge of his bed, listening to a transistor radio, holding a guitar and playing along with the song he is listening to. That sound at 0:42 is him coughing.

  • Stephen Spielberg thinks the WWII generation is the "Greatest Generation." He is sooooo wrong. The Greatest Generation is the generation that produced this kind of music.

  • the best. i could listen to it all day

  • a most profound song, RIP the real Pink Floyd, Syd Barrett...Shine on

  • first song i learned to play and sing on guitar

  • hahahaha his heads on fire

  • @AustralianKing19 O rly?

  • Born in 1965 and a Floyd junkie. Awesome...

  • My mate played this to me. We were friends from the age of three. We fought each other. We shared girlfriends. He held my hand in public when my mother died when I was 23. When I was 24 I helped him kick heroin. He died a week later. I wish you were here Russ. RIP. xxx

  • This song reminds me of venice beach ahhhhhh good oll days ahhhhhhhh love venice

  • Comment removed

  • i've never really been brought to tears by music before, but this song has gotten me pretty damn close. the past two times i've listened to it i've teared up, but not cried. it's a god damn masterpiece.

  • ....amavi questa canzone, adesso anche sei nel vento voli come una rondine felice, potrai cavalcare le note di questa canzone senza più soffrire...arrivederci amico mio, la tua morte ha spento solo una parte di me ma il tuo pensiero mi farà compagnia per tutto il resto dei miei giorni........continua a volare felice

  • I play this song whenever I miss my papa's & nana I'm only 18 years old and i've had to death with death several times. Wish you guys were here to watch me grow <3 see you later. legends love you always.

  • Most people that listen to this song remember a person from their family/friends, they played this song at my friend's wake the day before the funeral.

  • @KreiderJr

    Yeah but.. it doesn't go by quality.. it goes by the number of views... and though we can't understand how music like that is more popular that music like this.. we just have to accept that times have changed. BUT, it still doesn't go be quality sooooo it's cool :)

  • I love their album covers, they are always so awesome.

  • i always will love pink floyd and its sadness its joyfulness and its deepfulness theres never been anything better ever

  • but you won't appear

  • I found this because arviril lavigne

  • @hapanue get out

  • Would like to say this is probably my favourite Pink Floyd song but damn, they've done so many good songs it's too hard to choose, pure talent!

  • Bloody brilliant, PF. 36 years later and still the greatest track ever composed.

  • Mein Freund wurde beerdigt ! Mit diesem Song ! Dieses Lied haben wir seit Jahrzehnten immerwieder gehört, und wir dachten, wer ist der erste, der zu dieser Musik zu Grabe getragen wird. Ich bin noch da !! Und sehr,sehr traurig !!!

  • @didi7ish Eine kliener,pant und bark und shniffle/

  • That`s musik

    Great

    

  • What have we found

    The same old fears.

  • This is the song For My Daddy ... Miss him very very much

  • So what if Avril Lavigne's "Wish You Were Here" is popular right now? People will eventually forget about that song, but Pink Floyd's version is timeless.

  • every time i hear this song i think of my cousin and my buddy.......i want this played at my funeral

  • SOME CANADIAN SLUT

  • Who the fuck is Avril Lavigne???

  • we're just two lost souls, swimming in a fishbowl...

  • @Hazzard2theworld911 year after year..

  • "The precious things in life that God gives us, are the ones that slip away quickly."

  • my brother moved out yesterday, the day before that i was told that he was leaving. I had a chance to say goodbye but didn't take the oppertunity, i figured that i would say goodbye before he left the next morning. anyway, i woke up the next morning and everything was quiet...then it hit me like a damn brick, my brother was gone, and i didn't even get to say goodbye. so, bro...wish you were here

  • The guy on the right had heartburn on his mind

  • i love pink floyd

  • AMO A PINK FLOYD, CHINGAO!

  • for delphine. wish you were here baby.

  • I absolutely fucking hate that if you type Pink Floyd, the first song that pops up on suggestions is "Wish You Were Here," yet if I type in "Wish You Were Here" the first suggestion is an Avril Lavigne song. Fuck that tool and all the other tooly music clogging up youtube with its shitiness.

  • @KreiderJr ha ha!

  • @KreiderJr ok arvil larvine isnt bad but shes not great but selena gomez and miley crysu are shit sorry

  • @simpsons5150 Who said anything about those other two? Wtf?

  • @KreiderJr i was making a refernce to shit singers

  • @KreiderJr That's because A comes before P. If P came before A, Pink Floyd would come up first. We all know this song is way better than Avril Lavigne's anyway :)

  • @AllieIsBored Yeaaa I realized that like the next day... I was hoping noone else would notice! lol

  • @KreiderJr Lol, it's all good :)

  • @AllieIsBored Now shhh, before anyone else notices! ;)

  • @KreiderJr Kay :)

  • @KreiderJr Same thing happens with google when you type "Wish You Were Here Lyrics".

  • @KreiderJr

    It's just preference. Why bother with the tastes of other people? Nothing to get worked up over.

  • @KreiderJr Hi, very cool language, for a twat, Everything by these guys is ace, so fuck off and listen to Blur or some other shit

  • @MrJameswilde You sir, are an idiot.

  • @KreiderJr That literally just happened to me and I said the same thing out loud! And then come here and see your comment. Creepy and aggravating at the same time. I feel your disappointment.

  • @KreiderJr you stomp on Pink Floyd's awesomeness by caring about such shitty concerns, while listening to such cereal-sweetened-milk-like music

  • @greatrulo Suck it Trebek.

  • @KreiderJr Agreed

  • I wish you were still here Mom, but your memory still lives with me everyday. Rest in peace

  • It's fucking bullshit that when you type in "wish you were here" on the youtube search bar, the words "avril lavigne" follow the first suggestion. what the fuck youtube?

  • Rest in peace Jeremiah 28th September 1983 - 4th December 2009

  • Certain songs change the way you think.

  • my favorite part is about the fish bowl!!!:) i love this song so much

  • oh, how i wish you were here.

  • song reminds me of my dad :(

  • Great song very good work from them. There really are no words to describe it either. We played this song at my brothers funeral and everytime it came to the part of saying wish you were here it would skip those words like we werent allowed to think that beccause he was there with us only in spirit. I love this song it has alot of meaning to it. Pink Floyd rocks.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!

  • i learned to play this song, and its my favorite pink floyd song, i literally spend hours just playing this song over and over and over again.

  • @JoetheXtreme haha....so do I

  • This song really speaks to me.

  • Very easy to explain why there are 3 dislikes. This wonderful song came out about the same time as Chicago's "Wishing you were here" and they thought that this was it. Simple pimple.

  • I wish i could Like all these comments...

    FUCK the 3 people haha

  • 3 people wish they were not here

  • how can anyone dislike this, so mellow i love it

  • @smlyrsfrts : I think these people doesn't know the mean of " a good sound , and life in general"...stupid guys !

  • Jailed for raping the replay button!

  • @BrokenSugarcake youtube can do that? WTF!?

  • i love this song. It's one of my favorites. I have this CD. C:

    but who in their right mine thumbs this down?

  • One of my favorite Floyds. Comes in right behind Comfortably Numb and Run Like Hell.

  • remembered us all singing this before we all left each other, some of us for the last time....first time I felt such sorrow and happiness...a memory in the making.

    Can't ask for moments like that, they just happen.

  • this song re minds me of doing something that was hard all over and over again...

  • W.Y.W.H. SONIK

  • wish u were here brother...

  • To the three dislikes, Wish you WEREN"T here!

  • WOKE UP SINGING THIS TODAY LOL

  • for syd barrett

  • @MYNAMEISDANIELSCOTT HELLO, SPONGEBOB!!!

  • I had to play this today....Richard Wright would have been 68 , had he not passed

  • HOPEFULLY YOU BOUGHT ALL THE ALBUMS. SHOULD PLAY DARK SIDE OF THE MOON AND WATCH WIZARD OF OZ AT THE SAME TIME, NOW THATS A TRIP.

  • @PWRDECAY even the members of the band agree that this is crap

  • @PWRDECAY Im a huge FLoyd fan, and that Dark Side Oz is a pure coincidence / urban legend. Theres nothing to it, unless you are so high taht you can make some very loose connections and think it profound.

  • today, i bought this album!!!! :) :) :)

  • reminds me of old times..

  • the two people who deid not like this song are FUCKING RETARED.

  • @texasjrock1973 you are soooooooooo right
