Song title: Wish You Were Here
Artist: Pink Floyd
Year: 1975
Why I like this song:
Its a given that Pink Floyd are album artists. It's not often one singular song stands out in their repertoire but when it does, it knocks it out of the park.
What I get out of this song is just how weary it sounds - It must be that ascending guitar riff. I suppose it's fitting given this song is about the collapse of brotherhood but that doesn't make it any less heart-breaking.
Truly a gem.
