The song and album was dedicated to their original band concept leader Syd Barrett who suddenly exhibited schizophrenic symptoms which crippled him mentally. The first verse was referring to asking him if he sees the difference between the topics mentioned anymore. Then the second verse is referring to the empathy and loss of him in their band as a person and friend. "Wish You Were Here"

The other sad thing is the long standing animosity in the band will give you different responses on a subject from different band members. I went to the Pink Floyd exhibition in Toronto and it was not only visually and sonically amazing, it was very informative on all albums with 100's of interviews with all band members then and now.

No, the song was not written about Syd. The only song on the album about him is "Shine On You Crazy Diamond". As Waters and Gilmour have said about the album: Waters: "There’s one song that’s about Syd, but the rest of it isn’t. It’s a much more universal expression of my feelings about absence. Because I felt that we weren’t really there. We were very absent." Gilmour: “Although “Shine on you crazy diamond” is the one that is specifically about Syd, and “Wish You Were Here” has a wider remit, I can’t sing it without thinking about Syd.” These quotes appear out of their own mouths at 14:08 and 53:17 on the DVD “The Story of Wish You Were Here”.

The intro is basically someone in their home, or bedroom, looking for something to listen to on the radio. Hence the multiple stations run through because they're turning the tuning knob on the radio, until finally they alight upon a song they like, and then start to play along with their own guitar. That's why initially the guitar is mono and quite far away sounding.

The intro is from the days when you had to actually tune to radio stations manually. This takes me back to when I was 14/15 years old in 1978 and was just getting into PF. This is one of my favorites and listened to it endlessly figuring out the meaning to the album. PF did such a good job with the spatial arrangements that always sound so good through headphones. I can spend an entire evening listening to in order Dark Side Of The Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals and The Wall. They all have to do with the formation of Pink Floyd and Syd Barretts journey through drug addiction. Syd actually showed up at the studio while they were recording it.

@@JoeThornhill - I think the war part is a metaphor for chaos, and the walk-on part is mostly as an observer, in the background. But if it is about Syd, it’s about his mind - how chaotic and troubled his mind was (evidently). Perhaps the war is a metaphor for schizophrenia. And the cage are the drugs to try to quell the chaos.

It's even unique for Pink Floyd in terms of the tone & message...it's a beautiful tribute to Syd Barrett who was one of the founding members of the band. I wrote a paper in college about its meaning, significance & why it was written...that's how much I love this song!!

To me that's just some incredible poetry. It's a way to use a small amount of words to evoke profound mixtures of feelings and emotions. Even outside of the context of them missing their former bandmate, it's powerful just as it is which is probably why it became yet another hit for them. I think it's kind of fascinating that you are going on this journey and becoming more knowledgeable about this era, and I've seen it happen with other reactors as well. It's really pretty amazing. I'm around 60 years old and have been a musician and a music lover my whole life, and even when I was very young I found myself always exploring music from before my time as well as the current stuff and the latest stuff. I always had a Fascination for it and it also involved trying to understand the culture of that era, whether it was my parents or my grandparents era.

As many have said, the beginning is an old analogue radio being tuned to different stations. First what sounds like a soap opera, then orchestral classical music, then the guitar. And the “whirring” sound in the background to the initial guitar (before Gilmore “listening” and playing along kicks in) on the radio was quite common back in the day, especially on A.M. radio and late at night. Especially if you were picking up a far off station. Sometimes it could be caused by nearby power lines or even your own alternator or other atmospheric interference like Northern Lights etc.

The last time when Pink Floyd played live in 2005, for the “Live 8”charity concert, in London, this was one of the four songs they played. Roger, David, Richard, and Nick had not played together since 1981, the Wall tour. Animosity and conflict between. Yet three did two more albums, and epic tours - Roger did his own work. This charity concert, live Live Aid, brought the four to play, together, for Workd hunger. It was an amazing performance! At the start, Roger says into the mic’, “This is for Syd”. Syd B’ died like the next year. Richard died soon after.

I like how you noticed the space of the guitar in the begining. He is playing along to the radio, because he misses his band mate.

Syd Barrett, the founder of Pink Floyd suffered from schitzephrenia and during the "legal" period of LSD in London in 1965-66 he had spent a very long time taking massive LSD doses. He eventually eroded into madness, not being recognizable to his own band mates and friends. David Gilmour (guitar master) was brought in to replace him.

Pink Floyd uses tons of effects, even just a clip from the television as background noise. It is not meant to be analyzed it is just sound effect.

First started listening to Pink Floyd in 1969 ( Ummagumma album ) then by '71 with the "Meddle" Album I was hooked. I was able to see them Live in '77 and '79. They are a sit down listen to the full album start to finish. Same with the "Moody Blues"

Most people don't realize, until they see a live version, David is vocally harmonizing with the lead guitar parts. With Floyd you often have to remember context of time. The Vietnam War hadn't been over that long before.

The voices at the beginning and the first guitar were being played on the radio. Then the second guitar comes in signifying someone picking up their guitar and playing along. That is why you hear the spacing.
