RE: Syd Barrett Memorial Day
Oh certainly, in fact I've read more often that it was Wish You Were Here. I guess the thought of it being that song is just too sad. He was there, but he wasn't. David Gilmour said in an interview (I'm sorry I can't remember at this time which one) that none of them were there, not like they were when they were recording Dark Side, and that he they wished they had been. I can feel the emotion in both songs, that and love. A lot of folks have found this odd, but I feel Shine On and Wish You Were Here are the band's greatest love songs. Women come and go, but that was their mate.
