Description

Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd - This cover includes almost all instruments used in original song (plus lap steel) and the collaboration of Sandra Mantegassi as the lead singer. Watch my other Pink Floyd covers on my channel https://www.youtube.com/mobydick00001 "Wish You Were Here" is the title track on Pink Floyd's 1975 album Wish You Were Here. The song's lyrics encompass writer Roger Waters' feelings of alienation from other people. Like most of the album, it refers to former Pink Floyd member Syd Barrett and his breakdown. David Gilmour and Roger Waters collaborated to write the music.[wikipedia]. I do not own this song. This video is a tribute to the Pink Floyd band Roger Waters — Fender bass guitar, tape effects David Gilmour — 6- and 12-string acoustic guitars, pedal steel guitar, tape effects, lead and backing vocals Richard Wright — Steinway piano, Minimoog Nick Mason — drums, tape effects Stéphane Grappelli — violin Lyrics: 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? Did they get you to trade Your heroes for ghosts? Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change? Did you exchange A walk on part in the war For a lead role in a cage? How I wish, how I wish you were here We're just two lost souls Swimming in a fish bowl, Year after year, Running over the same old ground. What have we found? The same old fears Wish you were here
