The members of Pink Floyd have performed this song sporadically throughout the years, meaning that some of the most notable occurrences actually transpired alongside musicians who weren’t in the band. Notable Live Performances of “Wish You Were Here” But despite this, it still went to be named one of the “500 Greatest Songs of All Time” by Rolling Stone magazine.įYI, Pink Floyd’s classic hit “ Comfortably Numb” is also in the above-mentioned list. “Wish You Were Here” did not have a strong chart showing, only appearing in Pink Floyd’s native UK and a few other countries. This song was written by Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters and David Gilmour. And the track was produced by the entire band. Pink Floyd also released a live version of this song along with their album “Pulse” in 1995. That particular rendition made an appearance on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock Tracks chart in the US. This is the title track from Pink Floyd’s ninth-studio album. It came out on 12 September 1975 as a part of that project.

And said disposition, as illustrated in the title, is characterized by a sense of withdrawal from himself. He has apparently made this assertion despite also stating that the lyrics were derived from a poem he wrote centered on Syd Barrett.Īnd yet another explanation given is that this song is actually reflective of Pink Floyd themselves feeling detached from their profession at the time. Or stated differently, they may not have been heartily vested in the creation of the album this song is featured on.
