Wish You Were Here (the song) appreciation thread

[LMP]

It's so boring. The acoustic guitar and main riff are so annoying. The vocalizations at the end are terrible. It is just a really dull song that doesn't do the lyrics justice. It also really weighs down the album.

Oh well... agree to disagree.

Wow... I'm on a stupid post-athon today. Please feel free to link this to "The Dumbest Post" thread

I adore Wish You Were Here. One of their most beautiful songs along with A Pillow Of Winds.

It's definitely in my Top 5 with Comfortably Numb, Sheep, One of These Days, and Breathe.

Are you including the absolutely gorgeous Breathe (reprise) in that?

One of the three or four Pink Floyd songs I actually like.

My favourite Pink Floyd song. Must listen to it again!

I like to think of it as part of the song.

How can anyone not love The Wall... one of the greatest ever made.

I'm tempted to create an Empty Spaces appreciation thread. The live version kills.

 

[Saracene]

My favourite Pink Floyd song ever, It's so emotional and poignant.

I adore Wish You Were Here. One of their most beautiful songs along with A Pillow Of Winds.

I think I may even like Pillow of Winds more than Wish You Were Here, come to think of it...
