I lost my little girl to uterine cancer today. I held her in my arms and she nestled her head under my cheek before her last breath. I was there for almost 12 hours with her and I told her over and over how much she's loved, how amazing she is, and how lucky we are to have had her. She felt comfortable and wasn't scared, and at that point that was all I could ask for.
Lost my 19yr old Son 2 days B4 Christmas 2019. My heart, my life and part of my soul. I miss you everyday Jalin. I love you more than life itself Son. Till we meet again
Im sorry for your loss, I'm only 22, no kids but I've lost many good friends before their 21st birthday and many others as well from our school and i can feel how devastated the parents must be
My dad hung himself 5 years ago... Not a hint except that he was depressed and suffering from bipolar disorder... We never saw it coming and didn't ever realise it would get so bad... Today, a cousin sent an old family snapshot of us 5 when I was about two and seeing my dad holding me I just said to myself- I so wish you were here dad..... And I am here and overwhelmed with the honest sharing taking place here, thus giving me courage to share why I am here too... Thank you to all of you for creating this space 🙇🙇🙇
@@dustymcdust5095 Thank you for being so brave and for responding (*) I respond in solidarity 🌟 and I hope you are receiving all the help for the condition. Please excuse me if I say anything not in line or irrelevant to your situation. I just completed a session an hour ago on 'Understanding suicide' and the experts there said that following treatment and medication diligently greatly helps. I realised that we had switched doctors for dad when we couldn't continue with the first one because of distance and also financial resources. The second one in the neighbourhood was not as good and we were not very strict about medication either. Dad was always the caretaker of the family and we were too ignorant I think and were not ready or aware about taking up responsibility. In fact we were just too unaware about everything. All said, I really pray that circumstances are amenable for you and that you receive consistent support. I will keep you and your health and well-being in my thoughts, stay strong please 🙇💓 and thank you again for your brave comment, means a lot 💛 Maybe I'm overdoing it but I just want to be present for others as much as I can like I couldn't be for dad (*)
He is here. They are always with us in spirit. I lost both my parents by 27. Never got to say goodbye. Been 24 years since my Dad was killed in a farming accident. Today I know he never left me. Just transitioned from physical to spirit. Love you. Walk in that truth.
@@TEM14411 Humbled by your sharing 🙇♀️ Thank you and sending lots of love and warmth back to you* Your words also brought a smile because mum said a similar thing just day before yesterday on call.. I'm away from her right now and we had moved out of the house after the incident to live on rent. The pandemic and its consequential repurcussions left us with no option but to go back. I was worried if the trauma would resurface for her and more so cos I couldn't be there with her myself... it's been a month since the move and just two days ago she said that he is here with us and not for a single moment did they feel anything other than at home.
The worst feeling isn't being lonely, it's being forgotten by someone you'd never forget. I'm still here, old friend. (Wow. I was a lot younger and a lot sadder when I posted this comment, never expected to get any attention let alone hit the 500 reply cap. It's only been 3 years but my outlook on life has changed so much in that time. It's wild to me and a little bit humbling that this silly requote of mine has seemingly touched quite a few people... hope everyone's able to find peace with themselves and the world, love those worth loving and let the past remain the past as much as possible. Friends come and go but if you can love yourself you'll have a friend that'll never forget you)
I love how people come here with the same heart aches in a time we feel alone. Look through the comments, your pain is real but your not alone. May the ones we love live on in our hearts forever.
Lost my beautiful wife to cancer in 2005. She didn’t want to leave this world, and she put up a valiant fight to the end. I can’t help but be reminded of her and her life every time I hear this song, a song for all those who are taken too soon.
Lost my wife to cancer in September of this year as well. (2024). This song was one of her favorites. She said every time she listened to it, it reminded her of her mom.
This goes out to all those who can’t breathe when trying to listen to this song. This goes out to all those clutching their chest screaming into their pillow while this song plays. This one goes out to all of us that lost someone we can never get back, no matter how much we shake our fist at heaven and ask to trade. The one you wish were here may not be here, but I’m happy you’re here. Days will move on and the pain won’t go away, but you’ll learn to love and be happy again. This was my first time hearing this song without breaking down, but simply smiling at the memories. And I hope you too find that peace someday.
@@SanDesigns I hope you’re doing well. It’s been years since I lost my friend. It doesn’t get easy, but as the world was a better place with him here, its a better place with me here and it’s a better place with you here too. Sometimes we need help, and that’s okay. I hope you find the peace you’re looking for. And I hope the happy memories are the ones you reflect on the most.
I just lost my Son in a single vehicle , single person wreck . He died of a head injury on the road way instantly . I showed him this song when he was a little boy . And it was a Sunday evening when he passed away , we were together the Sunday 7 days before that , and the song he played for me right before he dropped me off was this one , it was the next to the last time I saw him alive .OH HOW I WISH YOU WERE HERE , I LOVE YOU MY LIL JOE !
Hey Glyn, I am sorry for your loss and I know nothing compares to losing a child but I did lose my childhood best friend in a single car accident in June 2006 when I was twenty and 2 1/2 years later in December 2008 my cousin who was my best friend hit a tree and passed away in a single car accident also. This has always been my favorite song but the lyrics hit so close to home with me. I play this every night on my guitar and listen to it on my I-pod everyday at some point. I hope you find some kind of comfort and solace in this music and I know the pain never eases but I hope you stay strong until you are reunited someday with your son.
to my wife of 2 weeks who was 3 months pregnant, our darling 5 year old & her 3 year old daughters . I miss you all. so very much I was in Afghanistan when I lost you all. 14 years has been & gone & I still cry myself to sleep every night, love you every day. Wish you were here
Just tore my guts out, I am so sorry that happened, there is not a word that can describe the hells you go through. I know it swings from tender memories that flash through your head to the sudden burning ache for them to be here now with you, and that it breaks you down sometimes when you least expect it. I know holidays too are grim reminders of how it was, I'm just saying all that so you know I have an idea, just an idea, of what you're going through. I want you to know that you will be with them again here, on the earth, when there'll be a promised resurrection. Revelation 7:9 describes those who'll be resurrected as "a great crowd that no man is able to number" at that time when they'll be joined by those who've lived through the end of the earth's old system and find themselves in that new system totally ruled by God. Rev. 20:1-6 & 21:1-4, Psalm:37:9, 10, 29, 34 & 2nd Peter 3:13 to 17 are some scriptures showing this. The Bible says God even knows the number of hairs on our heads, & we can be sure He will not forget anyone. It'd take a lot of typing to fully explain all the reasons I so strongly believe this is the truth about mankind, that one day, life on earth will return to the way God originally designed human life to be so I won't try to do that here. But before Satan invented lying & used "the lie" he told the first woman, to get her to disobey God, we would never have died had they obeyed. (God may not have foreseen that Satan would harm the human race like he did, because NO creature had ever lied until Satan did. At John 8:44 he's called "the father of the lie" you see he invented lying !! When Adam & Eve used their free choice to disobey God, and their bodies began dying that same day, God put a plan into motion to return humans to being able to live forever again one day, just as He'd designed us to. Jesus was an integral part of what had to happen for mankind to be set free from original sin's consequences. All the miracles Jesus did here were to show what the true goal & destiny was for mankind. The miracles Jesus performed gave evidence that with God's power sicknesses could be healed, the seas could be calmed, the hungry could be fed, even the dead could come back to life. God wants anyone who mourns their loved ones to know that they do have the assured prospect that they'll be with their loved ones again. Lazarus's sister Martha said to Jesus that she knew there'd be a resurrection of all "the dead at the last day", at John 11:14, so even that far back Martha knew of this resurrection that was going to come. Most religions today think the resurrection only refers to being resurrected to immediately go to heaven, and it does say 144,000 have that destination at Revelation 7:1 to 4 (& in other scriptures). But they miss the point that there's a 2nd group Jesus referred to often, and at Rev. 7:9 it is called "a great crowd which no one can number". Jesus referred to the 144,000 chosen ones as the "little flock", whereas the "great crowd" can NOT be numbered. The 144,000 go to heaven to rule over the earth, as kings with Jesus. Rev 20:6 & they rule over the great crowd, those who'll live on the earth. Matthew 5:5 "Happy are the meek for they will inherit the earth" and Psalm 37:29 says "the righteous themselves will possess the earth and reside forever upon it". You will see your loved ones again, so do your best to live right, be good to yourself and others, love Jesus, God, your fellow man and take comfort in knowing He will correct this madness one day. I'm not trying to convert you or anything, I just want you to know, they went to sleep and when they wake up you'll be able to be with them again, never to see to themdie ever again. Believe in that if you can, it can offer some comfort to your heart in that way. Know that your wife would want you to try to live the best life you can until you see her again, as you would want for her if your roles were reversed. May God lay His Love on you and heal your broken heart.
th-cam.com/video/uc0wtTCtrmg/w-d-xo.html Song illustration of Wish you were here by Pink Floyd. Go give it a watch and let me know what you think. Thanks in Advance
I lost my twin sister, one year ago, unexpectedly, and Pink Floyd is my favorite band, when I hear this song, I sing it loud and passionately, and I think of her and of the great time we’re going to have when I see her again with the Lord right by her side. Thank you Pink Floyd for keeping me sane.
To that beautiful person behind the screen reading this 🤗! You will get through it, because You have already come this far, so don’t give up! Believe in yourself, be strong, be patient, be who you truly are and everything will be just fine! You are so important! You are worth it! And you are so loved! Remember that ❤️💪🏻😇
My son was just 11 years old when he played "Wish You Were Here" on his guitar, at his father's funeral in 1991. There wasn't a dry eye in the funeral parlor. Such a brave boy!
This song was played at my friend's funeral. We served in Afghanistan together and I don't normally cry but this song always breaks me. Whenever this song plays in public I have to leave because I will tear up. This is his favorite song and I listen to this song on the day he passed. It makes me cry every time but I know he is right there, smiling and telling me everything is going to be okay. RIP Turbo, I hope you are strumming this tune wherever you are.
A perfect song for someone you've lost. Makes me cry everytime bro..I lost a best friend to cancer and I think of him everytime. Much love to you my brother and I feel your pain!
My stepmom shot herself in the heart on her brothers grave. This song breaks me down to nothing every single time. I wish you were here. I’ll never forget your love.
I miss my dad so much. He left in 2019 and it hasn’t gotten any easier. Reading these comments tells me I’m not alone in this agony, sending everyone love. ❤️
I'm so sorry you lost your earthy dad (The Lord God is our true Father) We all should wish we were UP there in heaven with our loved ones. Many people are missing what this song truly means. So did I until the Lord Jesus Christ let his Prophet know what it truly means. I was blown away when I heard the truth of what the song means he told me. Satan=Race of Cain team- slaughtering Jesus' team, see the blitz coming, I sure can see it (near end of vid). I'm so very sorry for all who lost their loved ones. I lost my parents and wish I was UP there with The Lord God our Father & all of them. God Bless
I want to reply to every single comment and let you all know I care about you and I want to make you all feel okay. But that’s impossible. So whoever is listening to this song crying their hearts out, just know I love you and that you’re going to be okay. Things will turn out okay. I promise you.
Mica Fowler I know that it may feel like the only option but it is a permanent “answer” for a temporary problem. you will be so missed if you do that please don’t. there are so many people that care about you even if you feel like no one does. And I know that I don’t personally know you but I promise you I say this from the bottom of my heart. I care so much about you and you are so important. Please stay here I am here for you if you need anything at all. Seriously.
My Mom died at the age of 46 after suffering many years with MS. During her final years she was in the nursing home and we bought her a radio with a cd player and she'd lay in the bed and listen to Pink Floyd with her eyes closed. I always wondered what she was thinking about. This song will always be near and dear to me and I'll miss her always. My hugs and love sent to everyone that has lost someone special to them ❤️
God bless u and prayers. 🙏🙏🙏I understand u My mom passed at age 44 I was 19 ,I am 58 lost my husband my oldest son,and my daughter.To me it never goes away.Lots of Prayers and I just take one day at a time.
My mum died in 2015 when she was 42. She had a brain aneurysm 😢 was the saddest time of my life. In fact life has been pretty sad ever since. She loved pink floyd. Thanks for everything mum and thanks for introducing me to this wonderful music. We had this at her funeral, along with nights in white satin. ❤
Your mum would not want you to mourn her death but to celebrate her life. The happy memories and the times you had together. The spirit world is a thin veil between us here on earth. Your mum would want you to be happy ❤
I miss my mom, my husband, and my niece. And of course, all the wonderful cats and dogs I’ve had throughout my life. That’s the bad part about loving - it hurts so much.
My mom and dad passed away in 2020 6 months apart from each other. They were always huge fans of Pink Floyd. When I was 13, I learned the chords to this song and I would sing it to my parents. Obviously, it isn't going to sound the best at that age, but they just really liked this song in particular. Now at 19, I play wish you were here every once in a while when I start missing my parents. It's just so crazy how something as simple as a song can have a whole different meaning because of what is happening around you.
I agree. music can help heal sometimes. Its better to let it out then keep it in. Lost my father when i was 15. I may not know what loosing two parrents is like but i still feel your pain. Seems there is alot of people here to relate to. Prarys friend.♡♡♡♡
Father just passed away from CoVid about a week ago.... they found him Friday and I found out Friday. After 11 years I was finally able to book my plane ticket to see him in a different country in December since I was finally old enough to travel alone and the pandemic hadn’t calmed down yet this year.... I was given the opportunity to talk to him the day after my birthday on the 22nd of June of this year and we kept in contact since then until the day before he died..... Pink Floyd was always our go to... and this song was one of his favorites. Dad.... how I wish you were here... I’ll never get to hold you ever again but I’ll always know you’re close to my heart. I’ll finally be able to pick up your ashes in December once the pandemic has gotten better.... I love you. R.I.P JLCS 04/23/1957 - 07/07/2020
@@davidedeblasio1783 thank you. I wrote this post three months ago when my father passed away and of course the pain is still there. Thank you for your kind words and want to know something quite amazing? Your last name. I’m not sure if you’re aware of the pianist Raul Di Blasio, which as you see has a similar last name as you... my father taught me how to play piano as a kid and Raul Diblasio became our inspiration... I guess that’s only a small sign from him to me... thank you very much.

I'm 12, nearly 13 in a week, I have lost my dad form cancer a month ago..I saw him die infront of my eyes i don't think I have ever been this depressed before.. we play this song at his funeral..I held his casket...it was so unreal.
Hang in there young bro, for this message alone your dad will be super proud of you putting this together, take everything he showed you and be the best version of yourself, well done buddy!! if u ever wanna do boxing and are close to bedford its on me!
I cry everytime I hear this..at work it comes on the radio all the time and I have to hold in everything or leave the room..my son passed and the night of I went home from the hospital and this song came on the radio. It hit me then that he was gone and everytime I hear it it assures me he is...I miss him so much and this song let’s me release every moment that I’ve held it in. Music connects the soul to the universe and when I hear this I know he’s with me and I can literally feel him in the air. He was 15 months old his name is Carter and god how I wish he was here
My Dad passed away last week. (11.5.2017). His favourite band was Pink Floyd and thankfully he got me into them when I was little. I've been thinking of a song for the crem to play when we go in.. I think I've found it. RIP.
Ash Holcroft I'm sorry for your loss that's gonna happen in 4 months.. spend as much time wit that person.. Cause Nov I'll be here soon.. Really my dude sorry for your loss if its a typo.. if not Lmk when Imma reach the pearly gates..
pretty sure he's from brit, where they usely do it dd/mm/yyyy instead of mm/dd/yyyy, and sorry for your loss sir but one thing I can say is in my personal opinion as a 19 year old this is A. best song and B. best band for any funeral.
My dad died of cancer at the young age of 61 and he Never was able to enjoy his life of retirement, and worked at his job for most of his life, this wonderful song brings back his loving memories
This was one of my dads favorite songs, he died around Christmas two years ago. I still can't hear this without crying, but I had to give it a listen. I miss you dad.
Love this song hurts me to the core but heals my soul lost my beautiful wife and wish she was here and spend just one more day to tell her I love her so much.
Learned a lot on a long journey through many kinds of grieving. Best not to ask why or say you could have or would have or should have. Theres just is. And what needs doing to get through. Lean on whoever you have left for sure. And don’t forget to breathe deeply 💕🧡🧡
I was born on this planet and my parents abandoned me. Who even needs cancer? Theres always plenty of suffering and thats not why I came here. I came here for the pleasure of symphonic release. God bless you, P. Floyd.
I lost my daughter on Christmas Day 2018 from a drug overdose, she was 33 yrs old and this song just made me bawl my eyes out. I wish she was here to see how well I am raising her son (my Grandson) I would do anything for one last hug from her, she did leave me an awesome Gift her son is my pride and Joy
I lost my baby sister Kristy on Christmas in 2016 from an overdose. The Holidays will never be the same. It has shown me that a "war" on anything other than human suffering is a lie. We should structure our civilization and industry around making things better for all instead of fighting each other for currency and power, they are illusions that take from everyone. Stop treading on Us we do not consent.
I lost my daughter July 2017. Go to sleep with thoughts of her and wake thinking of her. Relive that day every day. I wake, live my day. Laugh. Love on my other kids, grandkids. Thought it would get easier over the years. It doesn't. Thankfully my wife and I have stayed together, in the house. It's a soul deep feeling, can't describe it...don't really want to. Just hard to find joy Holidays are hard but I can't imagine your feelings. We'll see them again, at least that's what I believe. Sometimes I think, the sooner the better.
It’s coming up on the anniversary of my grandpas passing, I would give anything to hear him again. He used to tell me stories over and over again and I took that for granted telling him I know pa, you’ve already told me. I wish I could hear those stories again🥺
This was my dad's favorite song by his favorite band. Three years already since cancer took him from us before his time. This one is for you pops. I miss you so much. Rest in peace and I'll see you in heaven.
My 20 year old son died from fentanyl 21 months ago. I miss him everyday. There’s a hole in my soul that won’t be filled until I can hug him again. God bless all those who are missing loved ones.
Do you have a moment in life when it's like you knew that moment would be something you remember for the rest of time? It's almost like everything else is blurred. I remember being very young listening to this song with my Dad riding down the road and it's been one of my favorites ever since. It's one of those songs that take me back to a specific time in my life. I guess this will be the song that I'll play the day I lose my best friend, my Dad. To all those that wish someone was there again.
My dad played this all the time when I was a little girl. I haven’t heard this song for decades. My dad passed after a long, hard battle from lung cancer and since he had passed I’ve been singing this song, it plays every time I turn on the radio and pops on my feed. Thank you daddy for connecting with me. How I wish you were here❤
The thing that sucks about loving someone is that once there gone that love wont ever be the same...goodbye grams I'll miss you so much I wish you were here, I hope you and Syd are jamming out in heaven.
My mom climbed the stairway to heaven 7/16/19. I wish she would have stayed living with me. i wonder if things would have been different I'm so sorry we stopped talking the things she said to me were probably her illness talking. I should have known better. I love you mama. I always made sure you came first,before my husband and children I wish i could turn back the clocks of time and just kiss and hug you and tell you i love you. I know you didn't want me when i was born but look how many great years we had when i became an adult. There always a place for you in my home. Im sorry mama Your love child maria
Of course, it changes. Love and life changes.. But for me my soul will always be part of his and vice versa. 4 yrs and 4 Christmas's have past. But the 37 yrs we had together are memories that are cherished and will never change. I pray that yours will always come back for good memories.
Today my father died... He went out peacefully. The brain cancer spread to his brain stem and that was the end... He died at 3:35 today... This song is what's helping me keep my composure. Thank you Pink Floyd. I love you, Dad. You'll be missed immensely
My deepest sympathy to you and your famliy .keep listening to this amazing song .and keep your memories of your father forever.god bless and take care 💙
My father passed away too, I know how you feel. I'm so sorry for your loss, and all I can tell you is through the pain, it does get easier, and it does get better.
I know how you feel man I lost my dad at 16 to drugs believe me man it'll get better over time but for right now your gonna feel the worst pain ever imaginable r.i.p. dad love you 😪😪
I only looked at like half a page of comments and having already seen three dads more or less my age, who've lost a child... it's beyond heartbreaking. Boys, please, stay strong and alive for the sake of those others, who you mean the world to.
My dad didn’t die but he genuinely loves this type of music and I’m starting to like it he only listen to this type of music its gonna be real upsetting when he passed tho :/
We all should wish we were UP there in heaven with our loved ones. Many people are missing what this song truly means. So did I until the Lord Jesus Christ let his Prophet know what it truly means. I was blown away when I heard the truth of what the song means he told me. Satan=Race of Cain team- slaughtering Jesus' team, see the blitz coming, I sure can see it (near end of vid). I'm so very sorry for all who lost their loved ones. I lost my parents and wish I was UP there with The Lord God our Father & all of them. There will be people who will not believe what this song truly means but the truth is the truth. God Bless
My one and only son, Zaan, left this world on 27th of July 2019, at the age of just 17 years..I wish you were here, bro...your old man will never ever forget you...I love you so much, my son.
I lost my dad October 16th 2022 to a horrendous car crash. Every time I hear this song and it says two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, I think about us and all the memories we share. Playing this at his funeral tomorrow. God bless everyone who has lost a loved one. My heart goes out to you very sincerely. Nothing anyone says or does makes it go away or makes you feel better. All we have are the memories of the loved ones and the times we share. Cherish your loved ones and hold them dear and near.
My dad passed 5 years ago when I was 11. he loved pink Floyd. today is Father's day and I just finished crying. I put on this song as a tribute to him I miss you Dad.
I lost a 2 month old son to Sid’s, he died in my arms, gods grace lifted me. I’m sorry for your loss, I can relate.. happy Father’s Day! Blessed to be a father & gfsther!❤️😎🐶🇺🇸✝️🎶
I’m so so sorry for your loss 😢 May the sweet, sweet memories of your beautiful son give you some comfort in your time of need. Sending you & your family strength & love. Fly high angel 👼
@@josephleblanc32 Hey man, I'm 14 so I dont have much of a say in what to do but...if I had a child and they died, I would just do what my dad did. Go somewhere. It doesnt matter where, you may not know where, but just go. Go broke. Travel to experience life to the fullest, make friends, lose friends, do whatever. But that's what I would do, dont listen to me please. My dad did that and now everyday hes sad he had to stop because you gotta stop someday...were broke and stationary. May your son rest in peace and may you live a good life. ❤
My Father taught me this song in 2003.. I remember always seeing him listening to it around the house and in the car. Lost him in 2009 to Lung Disease. Its been almost 12 years and it hasn’t gotten easier at all, I’m stuck in a constant phase of missing my dad. I spent my teens wishing he was around and I always wonder if he would have been proud of me 🥺. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of those who have lost someone dear to them. The pain is unbearable at times but you have to look for the light at the end of the tunnel. Take it one day at a time, or one second at a time if you have to. Love you guys ❤️
I still remember my dad walking in with this album. It had the two guys shaking hands, (One of them on fire). When my dad died back in '07, I couldn't get this song out of my head and I didn't mind at all because it was his favorite song as well as mine. RIP dad.
My condolences on the loss of your husband; may God send peace and comfort to you. And please allow me to say this, which if you find to be in bad taste, I will promptly delete at your request. Thank you Jimbo for your service to our nation, and thereby, to us.
This song makes me think of my 2 year old step daughter we lost in a horrific drowning incident. I’ll always wish she was still here. I feel her and see her every time I close my eyes. Fly high our sweet Katie Belle you will forever be missed and loved.
@@CurlyFromTheSwirly LOVE IS BEAUTIFUL, BUT THEN IT IS AWFUL IF YOU LOSE WHO YOU LOVE, BUT YOU WILL HAVE THE LOSSES IN LIFE REGARDLESS SO YOU MAY AS WELL LOVE WITH ALL YOU'VE GOT AND ENJOY IT WHILE IT IS THERE AND TREASURE IT BECAUSE TRUE LOVE IS SO RARE. DON'T LET THE COMMENTS MAKE YOU FEE;L WORSE, THINK OF THE TRUTH OF THE LOVE THAT IS BEING EXPRESSED IN EACH ONE THAT IS A TESTAMENT TO SO MUCH LOVE... SEE THAT AS IT IS THE GRACE OF ANGELS......
That has got to be a horrible loss, awful memory to carry, I'm sure I'd think of her daily too had it happened to me. May your heart know and feel the truth that you'll be with her again and see her grow up. One day all the hells we go through here will be a distant memory and no one will lose anyone to reath ever again. Revelation 21:1-4 Matthew 5:5. Palms 37:9,10,29,34 2nd Peter 3:13.
Man I’m going to miss my parents when they pass away. Anybody who is reading this who has lost somebody I feel for you and I wish your family the best in health and happiness. I love how Pink Floyd can make a song that is both sad and beautiful at the same time. These guys were geniuses, way ahead of their time.
I feel the same. Luckily I have my both parents alive and well, but sometimes just the thought of them not being here in this world one day breaks my heart and I can't help it but cry alone in my room sometimes at night, because my 98 y/o grandpa is dying amd seeing my dad cry just. I can't handle it
Lost my twin brother last January. I feel you. I’m sorry. I started choking up writing this and singing the song. We gotta live on for them. My brother was the best guitarist I knew, just always focused on the wrong part of being a rockstar. That ended up taking him for me. Live for him like I live for jack.
Same here, my younger brother was a huge pink Floyd fan. He passed away from cancer 6 years ago. This was the song for his memorial video, play it to remember him 😢
Me and my father were in a motorcycle accident two years ago, a truck pulled out in front of us and we smashed into it. He passed away upon impact, I was miraculously saved and spent some time in the hospital and later recovery. He had told me on numerous occasions before his passing that if anything happened to him that he wanted me to be sure this song was played at his funeral. I made sure if it, this song was played at his funeral and later the words “wish you were here” were put on his headstone. Shortly after I learned to play this song on the guitar in his memory. Remember look out for motorcycles!
looking through these comments makes my heart hurt, and I give my biggest condolences for those who've lost someone or something special in recent years. I hope everything goes well soon. I'm 14 years old and I haven't experienced much in my life, but my love goes out to all who are having it rough, especially today. Know that you and your friends and family are always loved, and that there is always light at the end of the tunnel.
How very wise you are for someone with so many years ahead of you. Thank you for your beautiful thoughts, they mean more than you'll ever know. I wish you a life filled with the love of family and friends. A life with infinitely more happiness than sadness because as young as you are, you must be an old soul. 💖
@@kathieoray2990 thank you so much for your kind words, I wish the same for you. I’ve always believed there’s an old soul within me, and I try to embrace its kindness as much as I can. Again, thank you ❤️
I lost my grandmother on 2-17-20. She was like a mother to me, she took care of me until I turned 18 and was able to move out. Ive done many bad things and my grandmother was always able to forgive and forget. There will never be another person on this planet that was like her. She was a fighter for sure, and had a 6 month battle with septic shock and kidney failure. By the 3rd month she had been dragged through so much misery and pain, and she was very confused about everything going on around her. It was one of the most painful things Ive ever had to witness. I miss you so much Mimi and I am glad you're no longer in pain. If you have lost someone important to you, know that you are not alone and there are people who are going through the same thing. May we be granted the strength to move on from our losses
I’m 15 years old and have no clue about life, I’m still learning from my grandparents about life lessons, but I have lost very many people in my life. I have been to about 6 or 7 funerals and started to realize I need to spend more time with my nan My great grandmother ( who I call nan) is fighting cancer for the 4th time. She most likely won’t make this one and is in really bad condition at the moment, no matter how bad of a day she was having she would always let you come over and talk. She would be yelled at by family who doesn’t like her and a few years pass they come back she would invite them in and just be there for them. Never have I seen her not talk to anyone in the family that needs it, when I was little I would be in some moods and she would just try to make me feel better always. My papa is getting pretty bad as well, I just hope they go together because he would be lost without her. He would be a completely different man, they were made for each other. Been together their whole life and bought some land up on a hill and built three houses, had kids gave them the houses and they are still standing till this day. We lost almost a year without them because they lived to Florida ( my family is poor so we couldn’t afford to see them), lucky they moved back and a few years pass medics and doctor visits and they just get worse, they’re coming to their final stop, it’s just life though you love you lose and I’ve accepted she is going soon, and it comforts me that she says she’s ready to see the lord and she will be waiting for us. I’m here both and anyone of you I’m sorry for the loss of your loved ones, it’s a rough ride life gives but we power through it everyday.
Love love love ❤❤❤ I can relate!!! I lost 2 sisters & a brother from fucking cancer. Praise the Lord for wonderful lives!!! My prayers for ALL who reads this. Life goes on. 🙏
John 11 25 I am the resurrection and the life whoever believes in me will live even though they die. Jesus saves all! Repent of your sins, and you will have a friend that endures for eternity!
Yes the lyrics are very important but it seems most people don't understand what they mean. For instance, "did you exchange a walk on part in a war, for a leading role in a cage?.". How do you translate in layman's terms, these particular lyrics. Nobody I know sees it the way I do. Just wondering if you do
@@suzannemichelchater I think that line was going out to those drafted, and those who were arrested for not going. "Deserters" who didn't want to throw their lives away for a politician's pockets. That's how I've always translated that particular line.
This song already makes me sad, now along with everyone's comments on their loved ones. It makes me absolutely depressed. Because the pain of losing a loved one is something we all share. My father told me its great to make memories but what's even better is sharing those memories with another. Those are the treasures we keep after losing someone and are the stories we tell our kids. So make those memories while you can
I lost my other half in October, we were together 13 years. He passed away from end stage kidney failure. We used to sit in the living room and sing this together. Now, it hits so different. I miss him so much, I wish he was here, everyday all day. I am so lost without you ... I love you Jack, until we see each other again.
@@tylerlowe1321 thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I definitely hope he's in a better place also, he suffered for the last 5 years, but never gave up or lost faith, I guess that's another reason it hurts so bad. Most people would have gave up, but he never did
Wow, people in the comments section are so kind, it makes me envious of who ever is their friend Especially with such a good taste in music Yeah, I’m talking to you, random person who’s randomly scrolling down and reading the comments section
My brother died in September of this year this was the first song he learned to play on his guitar. It makes me cry every time i hear it. Fly high little brother
My husband died 4 months ago yesterday. I miss him. This song was one we would sing together when thinking about people we had loved and who had died. I am now singing this alone screaming at the top of my lungs. You are the love of my life Bill Harris.
@@jeffa7706 thank you Jeff. I was packing my husbands clothes today, started feeling real sad and I saw your post. I was able to cry and grieve a little more wish you were here.
To all you young people .Enjoy your youth dont wish your life away,and love your family and friends because they can be gone in the blink of a eye.And so can you
I listened to this album so much when I was 16-26. :) hehe I still love it. Timeless. I think we all go through a lonliness at that stage when we're trying to "figure it all out". It's important to know this is a transitional period and it's common to feel overwhelmed, disillusioned and lost/lonley. It changes folks. Opportunities come knocking and doors start opening and your journey has begun...alone.
To all of us that are currently in quarantine at the moment wishing you could be with your love or simply your friends again, we will make it out of this one day! I know I’m never taking life for granted ever again. Stay strong! 😁 Rest In Peace, mom. I love you so very much. I am so grateful you didn’t pass away from Covid. Dad and I miss you very much. See you on the other side, but I wish you were here ❤️
TheDolceLife hi I’m keeping busy trying to get my 17 year old grandsons subscribers up to 500. Only 188 to go 🤣. So would you please take a look at his cover of this and let me know what you think th-cam.com/video/Aywj_bKI4jk/w-d-xo.html. Keep safe ♥️
Reading these comments had me feeling a certain way. I’m not crying just more in a trance listening and imagining what you guys have gone through. Some people this year, some before, some many years ago. It just puts me in a mood of being lost, in a good way if that makes any sense. But more than anything it just makes me wanna say and whoever’s reading this might not believe me but right now, I love all of you. Like long lost brothers and sisters. We’re only on this planet flying through infinity once. This song really makes you think. Love you guys, RIP pops.
Lost my dad on 08-29-22 i don't fully comprehend how time has gone by so quickly but it's almost been 2 years and I miss him more with every day that passes. He owned his owned his own company and I worked with him side by side for some years and every time this song would come on the radio he would turn it up and whistle the tune perfectly, singing it quietly to his humble self as he worked hard and that memory has really stuck with me 😭 now every time I this song comes on or I catch even a fleeting glimpse of it for just a nanosecond I can hear his sweet hard working voice whispering the words quietly tapping his finger to the beat and it rips my heart open like a bandaid to a bullet wound all over again. I miss you so much dad and love you more! Can't wait to hug you again someday and tell you all you've missed! Love your little spooky 💜
Been listening to this track nearly every waking moment since Friday evening when I found out that a friend had passed away from brain cancer after a 4 year battle. RIP Nick 😥
I just lost my 27 year old to a tragic construction accident, the pain, the hurt, thank you for this page,this song, and the ability to post my hurt here. God bless.
Titus McCarthy maybe you should smash you phone run over your laptop and go drink a fifth before you drive so we don’t ever hear from your dumb azz again! The only reason we are here living in this wonderful country right now is because if the past men and women that got off their aZz and did something for others! Now we are hear because of them you and I get to converse about this.
@@titusmccarthy you're honestly a little bitch and i wish this wasn't online comments and was in person so i could personally kick your fucking teeth in bud
I came here from my dads Facebook page he shared this song. He also shared War Pigs. What a good song. I am not sad listening to it but it brings back the memory of people. I am not crying either just thinking of my dad. He is getting old.
My brother used to play this song on his guitar, I never knew what song it was, but I would stand outside of his door, and admire his voice, and his fingers picking away. He left for the army 3 weeks ago, and now when I'm feeling down, I listen to this song, and it takes away all of the pain, and just his image is in my mind.
My mother died October 30 of this year. She survived breast cancer three times. She also had Bipolar Disorder. However, she was finally taken by a lung infection. She was a wonderful, beautiful, kind, extraordinary person. Today, a friend came over to help me arrange pictures and music for my mother's Life Celebration this Saturday. She mentioned this song, and when we listened to it, I was shaking with tears. But I know my mother would want me to live my life to the fullest, which I am going to do. But still, Mom, now and forever, there's nothing I want to say more than how much I Wish You Were Here.
Man this comment made me appreciate my mother so much, and I just went and told her I love her... thank you, and I'm sincerely sorry for the passing of your mother
@@dewz0706 Thank you for your kind words. I am really happy that you are appreciating your mother and that you told her you love her. I started telling my mother I loved her every time I saw her when I started to realize how short and unpredictable life is. I'm going to have many good times in the future and will carry her with me in my heart and mind, but I'll never stop missing her. That will be my new "normal."
I’m very sry for ur lost Ik how u feel bc my dad killed himself ppl don’t understand how bad shit rlly hurts until it happens like ppl pick on me and shit I’m like fuck u, u don’t know what I’ve been through and I dif don’t need to put up with ur shit
One of my friends died in a car accident a few days ago. This was part of the marching band show, and one of the last pieces she played on her flute. R.I.P. Caroline. Fly high... ❤🕊
For my ex-husband who passed at 61 from a screwed up liver and a screwed up life. We met when I was 17. We have a son and grandchildren. I still miss him!
Feel your pain man, I lived with my grandfather and he taught me how to play the guitar. When he past, I couldn't play for years, eventually, I picked up a guitar and it was like riding a bicycle, except for the callus.
Tracey, first off I’m so sorry that you lost your dad.. mine is getting up there and I cannot imagine life without him on the planet... he wants “Beyond the Sea at his funeral”(Bobbie Darrin) ... plus a lot of Beatles... and “Wish you were here”. Hang in, and ty for the beautiful story. ♥️
Everytime I hear this song it takes me back to my dad’s funeral, Mid February 2014, he passed Feb 16 @ 1:02AM. My parents 25th anniversary was the day before, Feb 15. Brings me back to 14 years old, looking at his blue casket with the gold rails.
I lost my little girl to uterine cancer today. I held her in my arms and she nestled her head under my cheek before her last breath. I was there for almost 12 hours with her and I told her over and over how much she's loved, how amazing she is, and how lucky we are to have had her. She felt comfortable and wasn't scared, and at that point that was all I could ask for.
Sorry for your loss it must be hard for you
God bless, rest in peace 😔😔🙏
I'm so incredibly sorry for your loss. I'll be praying for all of you.
My heart truly goes out to you.... I myself share similar pain
My heart goes out to you. We lost our son to cancer last November.
Lost my 19yr old Son 2 days B4 Christmas 2019. My heart, my life and part of my soul. I miss you everyday Jalin. I love you more than life itself Son. Till we meet again
I’m so sorry for your loss, you’ll see him again in time.
I feel ur pain...I lost my daughter in 1998....she was 2....I never ever will fill my heart..till I meet her in the afterlife
God rest his sweet soul⚘⚘
Im sorry for your loss, I'm only 22, no kids but I've lost many good friends before their 21st birthday and many others as well from our school and i can feel how devastated the parents must be
beautiful x
My dad hung himself 5 years ago... Not a hint except that he was depressed and suffering from bipolar disorder... We never saw it coming and didn't ever realise it would get so bad... Today, a cousin sent an old family snapshot of us 5 when I was about two and seeing my dad holding me I just said to myself- I so wish you were here dad..... And I am here and overwhelmed with the honest sharing taking place here, thus giving me courage to share why I am here too... Thank you to all of you for creating this space 🙇🙇🙇
I appreciate this comment I am also a father suffering from bipolar disorder
@@dustymcdust5095 Thank you for being so brave and for responding (*) I respond in solidarity 🌟 and I hope you are receiving all the help for the condition. Please excuse me if I say anything not in line or irrelevant to your situation. I just completed a session an hour ago on 'Understanding suicide' and the experts there said that following treatment and medication diligently greatly helps. I realised that we had switched doctors for dad when we couldn't continue with the first one because of distance and also financial resources. The second one in the neighbourhood was not as good and we were not very strict about medication either. Dad was always the caretaker of the family and we were too ignorant I think and were not ready or aware about taking up responsibility. In fact we were just too unaware about everything. All said, I really pray that circumstances are amenable for you and that you receive consistent support. I will keep you and your health and well-being in my thoughts, stay strong please 🙇💓 and thank you again for your brave comment, means a lot 💛 Maybe I'm overdoing it but I just want to be present for others as much as I can like I couldn't be for dad (*)
💔💜❤
He is here. They are always with us in spirit. I lost both my parents by 27. Never got to say goodbye. Been 24 years since my Dad was killed in a farming accident. Today I know he never left me. Just transitioned from physical to spirit. Love you. Walk in that truth.
@@TEM14411 Humbled by your sharing 🙇♀️ Thank you and sending lots of love and warmth back to you* Your words also brought a smile because mum said a similar thing just day before yesterday on call.. I'm away from her right now and we had moved out of the house after the incident to live on rent. The pandemic and its consequential repurcussions left us with no option but to go back. I was worried if the trauma would resurface for her and more so cos I couldn't be there with her myself... it's been a month since the move and just two days ago she said that he is here with us and not for a single moment did they feel anything other than at home.
The worst feeling isn't being lonely, it's being forgotten by someone you'd never forget.
I'm still here, old friend.
(Wow. I was a lot younger and a lot sadder when I posted this comment, never expected to get any attention let alone hit the 500 reply cap. It's only been 3 years but my outlook on life has changed so much in that time. It's wild to me and a little bit humbling that this silly requote of mine has seemingly touched quite a few people... hope everyone's able to find peace with themselves and the world, love those worth loving and let the past remain the past as much as possible. Friends come and go but if you can love yourself you'll have a friend that'll never forget you)
Yeah
Amen
Amen
Exactly 😔
fagg yes dam that’s actually true I have never seen it that way
I love how people come here with the same heart aches in a time we feel alone. Look through the comments, your pain is real but your not alone. May the ones we love live on in our hearts forever.
Thanks
Amazing words 🙌☺️
💖💖
🖤🙏🙏
They will live in our hearts...forever.
I don't know if that's good or bad.
If we forgot we may have peace,
but memories are all we truly own.
My Dad died in a car crash a couple of weeks ago, and my mum died last year. Today is my 23rd birthday, and I wish they were here.
Im so sorry 🥺💕 sending prayers mate 🙏 stay strong
I’m so sorry brother. We are here with you.
I'm sorry, I know words cant replace feelings, but you are loved
I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry...
Lost my beautiful wife to cancer in 2005. She didn’t want to leave this world, and she put up a valiant fight to the end. I can’t help but be reminded of her and her life every time I hear this song, a song for all those who are taken too soon.
I just lost mine last month . May God dam cancer
I lost my wife to cancer in 2020. My wife fought hard as well. Thank you for sharing
Lost my wife to cancer in September of this year as well. (2024). This song was one of her favorites. She said every time she listened to it, it reminded her of her mom.
@@biglouie1959🥺 I’m so sorry, I’m sure every person who has ever lost someone that they care about is looking down proud of them!
😢
This goes out to all those who can’t breathe when trying to listen to this song. This goes out to all those clutching their chest screaming into their pillow while this song plays. This one goes out to all of us that lost someone we can never get back, no matter how much we shake our fist at heaven and ask to trade. The one you wish were here may not be here, but I’m happy you’re here. Days will move on and the pain won’t go away, but you’ll learn to love and be happy again. This was my first time hearing this song without breaking down, but simply smiling at the memories. And I hope you too find that peace someday.
Thanku
This broke me. Love🖤
@@SanDesigns I hope you’re doing well. It’s been years since I lost my friend. It doesn’t get easy, but as the world was a better place with him here, its a better place with me here and it’s a better place with you here too. Sometimes we need help, and that’s okay. I hope you find the peace you’re looking for. And I hope the happy memories are the ones you reflect on the most.
@@reneecurcio2560 best of wishes, life has hard moments. But we all feel them and we can all be here for each other. I hope peace finds you.
I love you.
My father took his own life in 2012 and to this day I always remember him when I listen to this song. Amen
I just lost my Son in a single vehicle , single person wreck . He died of a head injury on the road way instantly . I showed him this song when he was a little boy . And it was a Sunday evening when he passed away , we were together the Sunday 7 days before that , and the song he played for me right before he dropped me off was this one , it was the next to the last time I saw him alive .OH HOW I WISH YOU WERE HERE , I LOVE YOU MY LIL JOE !
Glyn Lester 💯 💯 💯
Glyn Lester take care....
Chetan Singh , Thank You , for your understanding and support .
Hey Glyn, I am sorry for your loss and I know nothing compares to losing a child but I did lose my childhood best friend in a single car accident in June 2006 when I was twenty and 2 1/2 years later in December 2008 my cousin who was my best friend hit a tree and passed away in a single car accident also. This has always been my favorite song but the lyrics hit so close to home with me. I play this every night on my guitar and listen to it on my I-pod everyday at some point. I hope you find some kind of comfort and solace in this music and I know the pain never eases but I hope you stay strong until you are reunited someday with your son.
Burt Horton , thank you , for your understanding and I am also sorry for your losses also , it is really hard .
to my wife of 2 weeks who was 3 months pregnant, our darling 5 year old & her 3 year old daughters . I miss you all. so very much I was in Afghanistan when I lost you all. 14 years has been & gone & I still cry myself to sleep every night, love you every day. Wish you were here
Heart braking man. God bless.
be at peace my friend!
Just tore my guts out, I am so sorry that happened, there is not a word that can describe the hells you go through. I know it swings from tender memories that flash through your head to the sudden burning ache for them to be here now with you, and that it breaks you down sometimes when you least expect it. I know holidays too are grim reminders of how it was, I'm just saying all that so you know I have an idea, just an idea, of what you're going through. I want you to know that you will be with them again here, on the earth, when there'll be a promised resurrection. Revelation 7:9 describes those who'll be resurrected as "a great crowd that no man is able to number" at that time when they'll be joined by those who've lived through the end of the earth's old system and find themselves in that new system totally ruled by God. Rev. 20:1-6 & 21:1-4, Psalm:37:9, 10, 29, 34 & 2nd Peter 3:13 to 17 are some scriptures showing this. The Bible says God even knows the number of hairs on our heads, & we can be sure He will not forget anyone.
It'd take a lot of typing to fully explain all the reasons I so strongly believe this is the truth about mankind, that one day, life on earth will return to the way God originally designed human life to be so I won't try to do that here. But before Satan invented lying & used "the lie" he told the first woman, to get her to disobey God, we would never have died had they obeyed. (God may not have foreseen that Satan would harm the human race like he did, because NO creature had ever lied until Satan did. At John 8:44 he's called "the father of the lie" you see he invented lying !!
When Adam & Eve used their free choice to disobey God, and their bodies began dying that same day, God put a plan into motion to return humans to being able to live forever again one day, just as He'd designed us to. Jesus was an integral part of what had to happen for mankind to be set free from original sin's consequences. All the miracles Jesus did here were to show what the true goal & destiny was for mankind. The miracles Jesus performed gave evidence that with God's power sicknesses could be healed, the seas could be calmed, the hungry could be fed, even the dead could come back to life. God wants anyone who mourns their loved ones to know that they do have the assured prospect that they'll be with their loved ones again.
Lazarus's sister Martha said to Jesus that she knew there'd be a resurrection of all "the dead at the last day", at John 11:14, so even that far back Martha knew of this resurrection that was going to come. Most religions today think the resurrection only refers to being resurrected to immediately go to heaven, and it does say 144,000 have that destination at Revelation 7:1 to 4 (& in other scriptures). But they miss the point that there's a 2nd group Jesus referred to often, and at Rev. 7:9 it is called "a great crowd which no one can number". Jesus referred to the 144,000 chosen ones as the "little flock", whereas the "great crowd" can NOT be numbered. The 144,000 go to heaven to rule over the earth, as kings with Jesus. Rev 20:6 & they rule over the great crowd, those who'll live on the earth. Matthew 5:5 "Happy are the meek for they will inherit the earth" and Psalm 37:29 says "the righteous themselves will possess the earth and reside forever upon it". You will see your loved ones again, so do your best to live right, be good to yourself and others, love Jesus, God, your fellow man and take comfort in knowing He will correct this madness one day.
I'm not trying to convert you or anything, I just want you to know, they went to sleep and when they wake up you'll be able to be with them again, never to see to themdie ever again. Believe in that if you can, it can offer some comfort to your heart in that way. Know that your wife would want you to try to live the best life you can until you see her again, as you would want for her if your roles were reversed. May God lay His Love on you and heal your broken heart.
sorry for Your lost

Song illustration of Wish you were here by Pink Floyd. Go give it a watch and let me know what you think. Thanks in Advance
I lost my twin sister, one year ago, unexpectedly, and Pink Floyd is my favorite band, when I hear this song, I sing it loud and passionately, and I think of her and of the great time we’re going to have when I see her again with the Lord right by her side. Thank you Pink Floyd for keeping me sane.
So sorry for your loss. She’s watching with the angels above. God bless you
To that beautiful person behind the screen reading this 🤗! You will get through it, because You have already come this far, so
don’t give up! Believe in yourself,
be strong, be patient, be who you truly
are and everything will be just fine! You are so important! You are worth it! And you are so loved! Remember that ❤️💪🏻😇
Thanks, sometimes I don't think I will.
Danielle Moore U’ll be just fine...chin up❤️
Thank you so very much for the reminder❤ You were talking to Me, right? ☺
Thanks
this comment saved a life
The most heartbreaking moment is when the person that gave you memories becomes a memory
St ture🙏❤️💋
Even though our best memories are sometimes wrapped in the sadness of loss, I wouldn't trade life's dance for anything, we're still in the game
Deep meaning bro 🙏
💙
I can relate to that😐
My son was just 11 years old when he played "Wish You Were Here" on his guitar, at his father's funeral in 1991. There wasn't a dry eye in the funeral parlor. Such a brave boy!
That's amazing
Hol up...
Thats odd
And that just made me cry... 😓
That's so sad
I lost my 61 years old dad yesterday. He was a huge fan of Pink Floyd and his biggest wish to see this Band in concert. I love you dad... always
I'm really sorry for your loss I lost my 61 year old dad in February he was incredible I miss him every day.
This song was played at my friend's funeral. We served in Afghanistan together and I don't normally cry but this song always breaks me. Whenever this song plays in public I have to leave because I will tear up. This is his favorite song and I listen to this song on the day he passed. It makes me cry every time but I know he is right there, smiling and telling me everything is going to be okay. RIP Turbo, I hope you are strumming this tune wherever you are.
Song is awesome sorry for your lost.
A perfect song for someone you've lost. Makes me cry everytime bro..I lost a best friend to cancer and I think of him everytime. Much love to you my brother and I feel your pain!
😢
Sorry for your loss.
I'm sorry, Ron
My stepmom shot herself in the heart on her brothers grave. This song breaks me down to nothing every single time. I wish you were here. I’ll never forget your love.
Wow..that def hit me hard Andrew Darby...❤️❤️❤️
Remember the good things
Well that was a dumb thing to do.
Mathew Hastings your a real ass hat dude...keep your childish remarks in your dumb head...
So very sorry!
This was played at my daughter's funeral. I cry every time I hear it. She loved Pink Floyd. Megan was only 28. I miss her so much it hurts. Xx
Miranda Bailey she had good taste in music you taught her well
I'm very sorry
And what is the fucking need or why say it here, with a lot of "strangers"? But anyway ... my condolences
This makes me miss her too. I’m so sorry :(
Gregory Hare I know the feeling. Just lost my brother from another mother to a tractor trailer accident
I miss my dad so much. He left in 2019 and it hasn’t gotten any easier. Reading these comments tells me I’m not alone in this agony, sending everyone love. ❤️
I'm so sorry you lost your earthy dad (The Lord God is our true Father) We all should wish we were UP there in heaven with our loved ones. Many people are missing what this song truly means. So did I until the Lord Jesus Christ let his Prophet know what it truly means. I was blown away when I heard the truth of what the song means he told me. Satan=Race of Cain team- slaughtering Jesus' team, see the blitz coming, I sure can see it
(near end of vid). I'm so very sorry for all who lost their loved ones. I lost my parents and wish I was UP there with The Lord God our Father & all of them. God Bless
I want to reply to every single comment and let you all know I care about you and I want to make you all feel okay. But that’s impossible. So whoever is listening to this song crying their hearts out, just know I love you and that you’re going to be okay. Things will turn out okay. I promise you.
Thanks Elise, I love you too! You're awesome for writing this!
Thanks, same too you, the ones who seem the strongest on the outside often are suffering the most on the inside. Suicide is never the answer
Justin Payton suicide feels like the only option right now honestly
@@Meeeca is there anything I can do? Please don't harm yourself. I've been there too... Message me back if you want to talk.
Mica Fowler I know that it may feel like the only option but it is a permanent “answer” for a temporary problem. you will be so missed if you do that please don’t. there are so many people that care about you even if you feel like no one does. And I know that I don’t personally know you but I promise you I say this from the bottom of my heart. I care so much about you and you are so important. Please stay here I am here for you if you need anything at all. Seriously.
My Mom died at the age of 46 after suffering many years with MS. During her final years she was in the nursing home and we bought her a radio with a cd player and she'd lay in the bed and listen to Pink Floyd with her eyes closed. I always wondered what she was thinking about. This song will always be near and dear to me and I'll miss her always. My hugs and love sent to everyone that has lost someone special to them ❤️
To young
God bless u and prayers. 🙏🙏🙏I understand u My mom passed at age 44 I was 19 ,I am 58 lost my husband my oldest son,and my daughter.To me it never goes away.Lots of Prayers and I just take one day at a time.

Dawn Hamon I’m so sorry for the loss of your son. No mother should ever have to bury their child
Dawn sorry for your lost xx RIPx
sorry R.I.P.
You lost him on my birthday, Now every year he will have a anniversary and he won't be forgotten. 😪😥
My mum died in 2015 when she was 42. She had a brain aneurysm 😢 was the saddest time of my life. In fact life has been pretty sad ever since. She loved pink floyd. Thanks for everything mum and thanks for introducing me to this wonderful music. We had this at her funeral, along with nights in white satin. ❤
She has her place in heaven, and now she's waiting for you to join her. May peace be with her...
❤️
Your mum would not want you to mourn her death but to celebrate her life. The happy memories and the times you had together. The spirit world is a thin veil between us here on earth. Your mum would want you to be happy ❤
My sister in law too
Lost my mom on jan 26. 1996. To the same cause. Im 47 now and still stuck in that day.
Missing my dad, my mom, my cousin but mostly my beloved husband. The pain is excruciating. To everyone suffering - hugs.
😔🤟
I miss my mom, my husband, and my niece. And of course, all the wonderful cats and dogs I’ve had throughout my life. That’s the bad part about loving - it hurts so much.
Sending You Gentle Hugs & Much Strength x 💐
Hang on Jesus Christ is Coming! Pray you are worthy to escape! God bless you!
butters 1159 Good question.
Raised as a Pink Floyd fan. Would sing this all the time pregnant. Singing it to my now 3 week old, he gets quiet every time ❤😊
Thats so sweet❤
Was singing this to my ten year old the other day and broke down crying and he just held me.

Learning this on electric guitar. Great song right.
My mom and dad passed away in 2020 6 months apart from each other. They were always huge fans of Pink Floyd. When I was 13, I learned the chords to this song and I would sing it to my parents. Obviously, it isn't going to sound the best at that age, but they just really liked this song in particular. Now at 19, I play wish you were here every once in a while when I start missing my parents. It's just so crazy how something as simple as a song can have a whole different meaning because of what is happening around you.
I agree. music can help heal sometimes. Its better to let it out then keep it in. Lost my father when i was 15. I may not know what loosing two parrents is like but i still feel your pain. Seems there is alot of people here to relate to. Prarys friend.♡♡♡♡
bro you’re a fool 📝
It’s so hard losing both parents, I lost my mum at 4 and dad at 14 and I’m 15 now and really struggling, listening to these helps 😔🙏
may god comfort your heart for the loss of your parents!

Father just passed away from CoVid about a week ago.... they found him Friday and I found out Friday. After 11 years I was finally able to book my plane ticket to see him in a different country in December since I was finally old enough to travel alone and the pandemic hadn’t calmed down yet this year.... I was given the opportunity to talk to him the day after my birthday on the 22nd of June of this year and we kept in contact since then until the day before he died..... Pink Floyd was always our go to... and this song was one of his favorites. Dad.... how I wish you were here... I’ll never get to hold you ever again but I’ll always know you’re close to my heart. I’ll finally be able to pick up your ashes in December once the pandemic has gotten better.... I love you. R.I.P JLCS 04/23/1957 - 07/07/2020
Angelica,,, we are all here to help if you need a hand,,, be strong,,, and bold,,,, cheers to you,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I believe you will be able to see and hold him again one day.

@@davidedeblasio1783 thank you. I wrote this post three months ago when my father passed away and of course the pain is still there. Thank you for your kind words and want to know something quite amazing? Your last name. I’m not sure if you’re aware of the pianist Raul Di Blasio, which as you see has a similar last name as you... my father taught me how to play piano as a kid and Raul Diblasio became our inspiration... I guess that’s only a small sign from him to me... thank you very much.
A very dear friend of mine passed away from a drug overdose recently. This was her favorite song... fly high sweet girl. Wish you were here.
Sorry for your loss❤️

@@nickieBurke hahaha
I cry everytime I hear this..at work it comes on the radio all the time and I have to hold in everything or leave the room..my son passed and the night of I went home from the hospital and this song came on the radio. It hit me then that he was gone and everytime I hear it it assures me he is...I miss him so much and this song let’s me release every moment that I’ve held it in. Music connects the soul to the universe and when I hear this I know he’s with me and I can literally feel him in the air. He was 15 months old his name is Carter and god how I wish he was here
This is my song for my son Parker, he passed away at 3 months old. I hope you are well.
I'm so sorry you made me cry between your loss and this songs emotion.
Strongs 😭 this song make me cry for some reason. Miss my sister and feel close to her hearing this song.
I’m sorry to hear about that I hope you make it through, it’s a terrible thing to lose a son so young.
I lost my boy at 21 months old from cancer and this song makes me think of him as well.
My Dad passed away last week. (11.5.2017). His favourite band was Pink Floyd and thankfully he got me into them when I was little. I've been thinking of a song for the crem to play when we go in.. I think I've found it. RIP.
Ash Holcroft I'm sorry for your loss that's gonna happen in 4 months.. spend as much time wit that person.. Cause Nov I'll be here soon.. Really my dude sorry for your loss if its a typo.. if not Lmk when Imma reach the pearly gates..
pretty sure he's from brit, where they usely do it dd/mm/yyyy instead of mm/dd/yyyy, and sorry for your loss sir but one thing I can say is in my personal opinion as a 19 year old this is A. best song and B. best band for any funeral.
I'm sorry for your loss Ash. My dad would have been 53 today.

Learned a lot on a long journey through many kinds of grieving. Best not to ask why or say you could have or would have or should have. Theres just is. And what needs doing to get through. Lean on whoever you have left for sure. And don’t forget to breathe deeply 💕🧡🧡
I'm so so unbelievably sorry, sweetheart. God put a divine hand on your mind and heart.
don't take this band as granted please. always realize how amazing it is.
(:
true that. a classic. seen them in Edmonton. best stage show. i could imagine what kind of show they could put on in these days in there prime
It's actually physically impossible to take them for granted. Everytime I listen to their music I experience it all over again.
itch song of pink floyd is whole world
ye sorry for gramar ty johnny
I was born on this planet and my parents abandoned me. Who even needs cancer? Theres always plenty of suffering and thats not why I came here. I came here for the pleasure of symphonic release. God bless you, P. Floyd.
My dad said when you hear this song think of me.
Cancer ended his life.
I wish he was here.😢
It's him though, he is wishing you there.
This world is hell.
You go home when you die.
I'm sorry

I lost my daughter on Christmas Day 2018 from a drug overdose, she was 33 yrs old and this song just made me bawl my eyes out. I wish she was here to see how well I am raising her son (my Grandson) I would do anything for one last hug from her, she did leave me an awesome Gift her son is my pride and Joy
I lost my baby sister Kristy on Christmas in 2016 from an overdose. The Holidays will never be the same. It has shown me that a "war" on anything other than human suffering is a lie. We should structure our civilization and industry around making things better for all instead of fighting each other for currency and power, they are illusions that take from everyone. Stop treading on Us we do not consent.
I’m so sorry ❤️❤️❤️

@@lvstofly well said. Beautiful. Sad. I love you.
I lost my daughter July 2017.
Go to sleep with thoughts of her and wake thinking of her. Relive that day every day.
I wake, live my day. Laugh. Love on my other kids, grandkids.
Thought it would get easier over the years. It doesn't. Thankfully my wife and I have stayed together, in the house.
It's a soul deep feeling, can't describe it...don't really want to.
Just hard to find joy
Holidays are hard but I can't imagine your feelings.
We'll see them again, at least that's what I believe.
Sometimes I think, the sooner the better.
It’s coming up on the anniversary of my grandpas passing, I would give anything to hear him again. He used to tell me stories over and over again and I took that for granted telling him I know pa, you’ve already told me. I wish I could hear those stories again🥺
This was my dad's favorite song by his favorite band. Three years already since cancer took him from us before his time.
This one is for you pops. I miss you so much. Rest in peace and I'll see you in heaven.

Do you have a moment in life when it's like you knew that moment would be something you remember for the rest of time? It's almost like everything else is blurred. I remember being very young listening to this song with my Dad riding down the road and it's been one of my favorites ever since. It's one of those songs that take me back to a specific time in my life. I guess this will be the song that I'll play the day I lose my best friend, my Dad. To all those that wish someone was there again.
why are you in every comment keemstar
I know exactly what you mean!

My dad played this all the time when I was a little girl. I haven’t heard this song for decades. My dad passed after a long, hard battle from lung cancer and since he had passed I’ve been singing this song, it plays every time I turn on the radio and pops on my feed. Thank you daddy for connecting with me. How I wish you were here❤

I'm so sorry we stopped talking the things she said to me were probably her illness talking. I should have known better. I love you mama. I always made sure you came first,before my husband and children
I wish i could turn back the clocks of time and just kiss and hug you and tell you i love you. I know you didn't want me when i was born but look how many great years we had when i became an adult. There always a place for you in my home. Im sorry mama

Of course, it changes. Love and life changes.. But for me my soul will always be part of his and vice versa. 4 yrs and 4 Christmas's have past. But the 37 yrs we had together are memories that are cherished and will never change. I pray that yours will always come back for good memories.

Today my father died... He went out peacefully. The brain cancer spread to his brain stem and that was the end... He died at 3:35 today... This song is what's helping me keep my composure. Thank you Pink Floyd. I love you, Dad. You'll be missed immensely
My condolences
My deepest sympathy to you and your famliy .keep listening to this amazing song .and keep your memories of your father forever.god bless and take care 💙

I only looked at like half a page of comments and having already seen three dads more or less my age, who've lost a child... it's beyond heartbreaking. Boys, please, stay strong and alive for the sake of those others, who you mean the world to.
It’s hard.
My dad didn’t die but he genuinely loves this type of music and I’m starting to like it he only listen to this type of music its gonna be real upsetting when he passed tho :/
🧘♂️
That’s what music is Made for. To wake up emotions. This song is incredible.
We all should wish we were UP there in heaven with our loved ones. Many people are missing what this song truly means. So did I until the Lord Jesus Christ let his Prophet know what it truly means. I was blown away when I heard the truth of what the song means he told me. Satan=Race of Cain team- slaughtering Jesus' team, see the blitz coming, I sure can see it
(near end of vid). I'm so very sorry for all who lost their loved ones. I lost my parents and wish I was UP there with The Lord God our Father & all of them. There will be people who will not believe what this song truly means but the truth is the truth. God Bless

Playing this at his funeral tomorrow. God bless everyone who has lost a loved one. My heart goes out to you very sincerely. Nothing anyone says or does makes it go away or makes you feel better. All we have are the memories of the loved ones and the times we share. Cherish your loved ones and hold them dear and near.

@@josephleblanc32 Hey man, I'm 14 so I dont have much of a say in what to do but...if I had a child and they died, I would just do what my dad did. Go somewhere. It doesnt matter where, you may not know where, but just go. Go broke. Travel to experience life to the fullest, make friends, lose friends, do whatever. But that's what I would do, dont listen to me please. My dad did that and now everyday hes sad he had to stop because you gotta stop someday...were broke and stationary. May your son rest in peace and may you live a good life. ❤
My Father taught me this song in 2003.. I remember always seeing him listening to it around the house and in the car. Lost him in 2009 to Lung Disease. Its been almost 12 years and it hasn’t gotten easier at all, I’m stuck in a constant phase of missing my dad. I spent my teens wishing he was around and I always wonder if he would have been proud of me 🥺.
My thoughts and prayers go out to all of those who have lost someone dear to them. The pain is unbearable at times but you have to look for the light at the end of the tunnel. Take it one day at a time, or one second at a time if you have to. Love you guys ❤️

I lost my dad 12/8/2023 from complications of a stroke, he loved music this was one of the songs he played and sang! I miss him so much!
Man I’m going to miss my parents when they pass away. Anybody who is reading this who has lost somebody I feel for you and I wish your family the best in health and happiness.
I love how Pink Floyd can make a song that is both sad and beautiful at the same time. These guys were geniuses, way ahead of their time.
I cry sometimes cause I know they will pass. Love them each day
I feel the same. Luckily I have my both parents alive and well, but sometimes just the thought of them not being here in this world one day breaks my heart and I can't help it but cry alone in my room sometimes at night, because my 98 y/o grandpa is dying amd seeing my dad cry just. I can't handle it
My mother passed away from cancer this song was played at her funeral
You will my friend it sucks
My brothers song... he passed and we played this at his funeral. Still gets me 4 yrs later.
Lost my twin brother last January. I feel you. I’m sorry. I started choking up writing this and singing the song. We gotta live on for them. My brother was the best guitarist I knew, just always focused on the wrong part of being a rockstar. That ended up taking him for me. Live for him like I live for jack.
Never lost a sibling thankfully but feel you sister.
Same here, my younger brother was a huge pink Floyd fan. He passed away from cancer 6 years ago. This was the song for his memorial video, play it to remember him 😢
Me and my father were in a motorcycle accident two years ago, a truck pulled out in front of us and we smashed into it. He passed away upon impact, I was miraculously saved and spent some time in the hospital and later recovery. He had told me on numerous occasions before his passing that if anything happened to him that he wanted me to be sure this song was played at his funeral. I made sure if it, this song was played at his funeral and later the words “wish you were here” were put on his headstone. Shortly after I learned to play this song on the guitar in his memory. Remember look out for motorcycles!
That’s beautiful brother….
Sending you love
Thanks God your alive
Yeah that's pretty spectacular
I'm so sorry. Love transcends all
looking through these comments makes my heart hurt, and I give my biggest condolences for those who've lost someone or something special in recent years. I hope everything goes well soon.

How very wise you are for someone with so many years ahead of you. Thank you for your beautiful thoughts, they mean more than you'll ever know. I wish you a life filled with the love of family and friends. A life with infinitely more happiness than sadness because as young as you are, you must be an old soul. 💖

S K How about when you're missing a whole time period of your life?
it sure does
I lost my grandmother on 2-17-20. She was like a mother to me, she took care of me until I turned 18 and was able to move out. Ive done many bad things and my grandmother was always able to forgive and forget. There will never be another person on this planet that was like her.
She was a fighter for sure, and had a 6 month battle with septic shock and kidney failure. By the 3rd month she had been dragged through so much misery and pain, and she was very confused about everything going on around her. It was one of the most painful things Ive ever had to witness.
I miss you so much Mimi and I am glad you're no longer in pain.
If you have lost someone important to you, know that you are not alone and there are people who are going through the same thing. May we be granted the strength to move on from our losses
I’m 15 years old and have no clue about life, I’m still learning from my grandparents about life lessons, but I have lost very many people in my life. I have been to about 6 or 7 funerals and started to realize I need to spend more time with my nan
My great grandmother ( who I call nan) is fighting cancer for the 4th time. She most likely won’t make this one and is in really bad condition at the moment, no matter how bad of a day she was having she would always let you come over and talk. She would be yelled at by family who doesn’t like her and a few years pass they come back she would invite them in and just be there for them.
Never have I seen her not talk to anyone in the family that needs it, when I was little I would be in some moods and she would just try to make me feel better always. My papa is getting pretty bad as well, I just hope they go together because he would be lost without her. He would be a completely different man, they were made for each other. Been together their whole life and bought some land up on a hill and built three houses, had kids gave them the houses and they are still standing till this day.
We lost almost a year without them because they lived to Florida ( my family is poor so we couldn’t afford to see them), lucky they moved back and a few years pass medics and doctor visits and they just get worse, they’re coming to their final stop, it’s just life though you love you lose and I’ve accepted she is going soon, and it comforts me that she says she’s ready to see the lord and she will be waiting for us.
I’m here both and anyone of you I’m sorry for the loss of your loved ones, it’s a rough ride life gives but we power through it everyday.
Love love love ❤❤❤ I can relate!!! I lost 2 sisters & a brother from fucking cancer. Praise the Lord for wonderful lives!!! My prayers for ALL who reads this. Life goes on. 🙏
Pink Floyd never seems to get enough for the quality of their lyrics. So many wonderful songs about the important things of life.
Some of the younger cats appreciate it the same way we did way back when. PF transcends generations.
They're pretty renowned in any circle.
John 11 25
I am the resurrection and the life whoever believes in me will live even though they die.
Jesus saves all! Repent of your sins, and you will have a friend that endures for eternity!
Yes the lyrics are very important but it seems most people don't understand what they mean. For instance, "did you exchange a walk on part in a war, for a leading role in a cage?.". How do you translate in layman's terms, these particular lyrics. Nobody I know sees it the way I do. Just wondering if you do
@@suzannemichelchater I think that line was going out to those drafted, and those who were arrested for not going. "Deserters" who didn't want to throw their lives away for a politician's pockets. That's how I've always translated that particular line.
You never REALLY appreciate life until you've lost someone you dearly love. A sad lesson we all endure at some point
Life will teach us all
Dayums people back Rayne old black crow Maybe u big baby
My condolences to everyone who lost a loved one, I too lost my soulmate I would go to the cemetery and sit with him playing this song for hrs ♥️
❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
I feel bad
🙏
Your soulmate is still alive but in a different place and you will be with them again.
My dog was my soul mate.ty.very much
This song already makes me sad, now along with everyone's comments on their loved ones. It makes me absolutely depressed. Because the pain of losing a loved one is something we all share. My father told me its great to make memories but what's even better is sharing those memories with another. Those are the treasures we keep after losing someone and are the stories we tell our kids. So make those memories while you can
I lost my other half in October, we were together 13 years. He passed away from end stage kidney failure. We used to sit in the living room and sing this together. Now, it hits so different. I miss him so much, I wish he was here, everyday all day. I am so lost without you ... I love you Jack, until we see each other again.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I pray for peace and comfort for you.
@@shamilton2719 thank you so much, I definitely need it ❤️
@@tragicdeclineofmusic2186 thank you so much :(
Stay strong and never forget the love that you two shared, I’m sorry for your loss, but I pray he’s in a better place
@@tylerlowe1321 thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I definitely hope he's in a better place also, he suffered for the last 5 years, but never gave up or lost faith, I guess that's another reason it hurts so bad. Most people would have gave up, but he never did
Wow, people in the comments section are so kind, it makes me envious of who ever is their friend
Especially with such a good taste in music
Yeah, I’m talking to you, random person who’s randomly scrolling down and reading the comments section
Hello
Ahhh we're all friends just far away friends :)
@@orunaljod9203 And family. Creepy
have a really nice day if you get to see this comment
Yeah, i agree
When someone you treasure becomes a memory, that memory becomes a treasure.
Oh how i miss you Dave S., my
Forever friend who forgot me.
Tears, lucia
Well said!
Beautifully said
It wakes your soul
True that
My brother died in September of this year this was the first song he learned to play on his guitar. It makes me cry every time i hear it. Fly high little brother
This song is for my mom. Miss you.
She died at 49 suddenly, I was 23. Life is too short!
Sorry man
I also dedicate this bittersweet song to my mom. Her life was also way too short. God Bless🧡🙏
I lost my Dad 12.02.2021. He was only 47 years old, i am 24. I feel your pain. I Love you Dad. I miss you so much.
@@MrSqErO so sorry for your loss 😢
👍Take care about u
I would give my life to put everyone back together.
Rex those are facts
Rex unfortunately that’s sorta how it is sometimes with some families. Only time everybody get together, is at a funeral.
Liu Antonio seems like it, damn
I wouldn't do my life any differently. It's the memories that make us who we are.
Jesus did.
My husband died 4 months ago yesterday. I miss him. This song was one we would sing together when thinking about people we had loved and who had died. I am now singing this alone screaming at the top of my lungs. You are the love of my life Bill Harris.
My hubby died 3 years ago today, I wish you were here 💕💕💕💕
@@jeffa7706
thank you Jeff. I was packing my husbands clothes today, started feeling real sad and I saw your post. I was able to cry and grieve a little more wish you were here.
Margo Harris I’m Jeff’s wife and I always use his TH-cam playlists. There’s so many memories behind the music, keep strong , Pat
I'm sorry for your loss I remember my grandma left my grandpa it's a bad family event that is sadly remembered
Margo Harris my late husband and I loved this song too.
I lost my baby girl 17 years ago.. Merry Christmas my love bug.. mama loves you forever and always ❤ It's almost your birthday.
To all you young people .Enjoy your youth dont wish your life away,and love your family and friends because they can be gone in the blink of a eye.And so can you
Amen
Amen.
Truth..... gotta remind myself that a lot
I listened to this album so much when I was 16-26. :) hehe I still love it. Timeless. I think we all go through a lonliness at that stage when we're trying to "figure it all out". It's important to know this is a transitional period and it's common to feel overwhelmed, disillusioned and lost/lonley. It changes folks. Opportunities come knocking and doors start opening and your journey has begun...alone.
aj?
To all of us that are currently in quarantine at the moment wishing you could be with your love or simply your friends again, we will make it out of this one day! I know I’m never taking life for granted ever again. Stay strong! 😁
Rest In Peace, mom. I love you so very much. I am so grateful you didn’t pass away from Covid. Dad and I miss you very much. See you on the other side, but I wish you were here ❤️
TheDolceLife hi I’m keeping busy trying to get my 17 year old grandsons subscribers up to 500. Only 188 to go 🤣. So would you please take a look at his cover of this and let me know what you think th-cam.com/video/Aywj_bKI4jk/w-d-xo.html. Keep safe ♥️
Brenda Hawkins just saw it. He did an awesome job! You stay safe as well.
TheDolceLife thank you so much. I hope you might subscribe 😘
TheDolceLife My gf
This song fits the moment so perfectly.
Reading these comments had me feeling a certain way. I’m not crying just more in a trance listening and imagining what you guys have gone through. Some people this year, some before, some many years ago. It just puts me in a mood of being lost, in a good way if that makes any sense. But more than anything it just makes me wanna say and whoever’s reading this might not believe me but right now, I love all of you. Like long lost brothers and sisters. We’re only on this planet flying through infinity once. This song really makes you think.
Love you guys, RIP pops.
Pass me the bucket.
Kill me please, brother. Slowly, but surely. And painlessly, if possible.
I get this guy he knows how to tell heaven from hell
Nick Milian love you too bro and i feel yea.. RIP Tickkerr
Nick Milian I hear you on that one. This song means a lot to us all
Lost my dad on 08-29-22 i don't fully comprehend how time has gone by so quickly but it's almost been 2 years and I miss him more with every day that passes. He owned his owned his own company and I worked with him side by side for some years and every time this song would come on the radio he would turn it up and whistle the tune perfectly, singing it quietly to his humble self as he worked hard and that memory has really stuck with me 😭 now every time I this song comes on or I catch even a fleeting glimpse of it for just a nanosecond I can hear his sweet hard working voice whispering the words quietly tapping his finger to the beat and it rips my heart open like a bandaid to a bullet wound all over again. I miss you so much dad and love you more! Can't wait to hug you again someday and tell you all you've missed! Love your little spooky 💜
Been listening to this track nearly every waking moment since Friday evening when I found out that a friend had passed away from brain cancer after a 4 year battle. RIP Nick 😥
i'm sincerely sorry
Don’t wanna sound like an asshole but why do you need to post this to a TH-cam comment section? Do you not have anyone to talk to about it?
Very sorry for your loss
@@m_qat fuck you man. This person lost someone and it seems like you are being an asshole. People can express how they feel any way they want.
I'm so sorry. Prayers for you.
I just lost my 27 year old to a tragic construction accident, the pain, the hurt, thank you for this page,this song, and the ability to post my hurt here. God bless.
I'm so sorry for your devastating loss friend.
God be with you, my sincere condolences
I'm so sorry for your loss. May you find peace in this chaotic life.
Cecil County Home Thats horrible, hope things get better for you.
Cecil County Home
I’m sorry Cecil, time heals all. We’re with you.
Lost my Dad in 07' in Iraq giving service to his country, i was only 7 but i remember this being his favorite song. Wish you were here.
Robert Montgomery he’s always with us and thanks for having a great dad that served for all of us to have a better life. Stay up
Maybe he should've stayed home and not fought "for his country'
Titus McCarthy maybe you should smash you phone run over your laptop and go drink a fifth before you drive so we don’t ever hear from your dumb azz again! The only reason we are here living in this wonderful country right now is because if the past men and women that got off their aZz and did something for others! Now we are hear because of them you and I get to converse about this.
He had amazing taste in music. Thank you for his service, I am sorry for your loss
@@titusmccarthy you're honestly a little bitch and i wish this wasn't online comments and was in person so i could personally kick your fucking teeth in bud
I came here from my dads Facebook page he shared this song. He also shared War Pigs. What a good song. I am not sad listening to it but it brings back the memory of people. I am not crying either just thinking of my dad. He is getting old.
My brother used to play this song on his guitar, I never knew what song it was, but I would stand outside of his door, and admire his voice, and his fingers picking away. He left for the army 3 weeks ago, and now when I'm feeling down, I listen to this song, and it takes away all of the pain, and just his image is in my mind.
-coco Nut- Has he come back yet?
i hope you see him soon! 💗
Is he back yet?
❤️❤️❤️
he has come back :)
One of the greatest songs ever to be recorded. A beautiful tribute to Syd by his former bandmates.
RIP Syd 🙏🏻 🕊 ☮
My mother died October 30 of this year. She survived breast cancer three times. She also had Bipolar Disorder. However, she was finally taken by a lung infection. She was a wonderful, beautiful, kind, extraordinary person. Today, a friend came over to help me arrange pictures and music for my mother's Life Celebration this Saturday. She mentioned this song, and when we listened to it, I was shaking with tears. But I know my mother would want me to live my life to the fullest, which I am going to do. But still, Mom, now and forever, there's nothing I want to say more than how much I Wish You Were Here.
Man this comment made me appreciate my mother so much, and I just went and told her I love her... thank you, and I'm sincerely sorry for the passing of your mother
@@dewz0706 Thank you for your kind words. I am really happy that you are appreciating your mother and that you told her you love her. I started telling my mother I loved her every time I saw her when I started to realize how short and unpredictable life is. I'm going to have many good times in the future and will carry her with me in my heart and mind, but I'll never stop missing her. That will be my new "normal."
I’m very sry for ur lost Ik how u feel bc my dad killed himself ppl don’t understand how bad shit rlly hurts until it happens like ppl pick on me and shit I’m like fuck u, u don’t know what I’ve been through and I dif don’t need to put up with ur shit
That's a beautiful eulogy my friend ... you're mom must have really appreciated you.
Sorry for ur lost

Music brings everyone together in so many ways. As a street musician i see how it can touch people. Music is timeless. The classics are where it's at!
One of my friends died in a car accident a few days ago. This was part of the marching band show, and one of the last pieces she played on her flute. R.I.P. Caroline. Fly high... ❤🕊
I'm so sorry for your loss.
For my ex-husband who passed at 61 from a screwed up liver and a screwed up life.
We met when I was 17. We have a son and grandchildren. I still miss him!
Sheila Drucker he loves you woman
Sorry for your loss. He's in a happier place..
He loves you be easy baby
Sheila Drucker Here’s a fat hug from me 🤗❤️
This played at my dads funeral, this is the first time I've been able to listen to it for almost 4 years
Tracey Naughton keep your chin up. Crown is slipping, king.
Just lost my dad on June 17th. I'm sorry for your loss.
Feel your pain man, I lived with my grandfather and he taught me how to play the guitar. When he past, I couldn't play for years, eventually, I picked up a guitar and it was like riding a bicycle, except for the callus.
Tracey, first off I’m so sorry that you lost your dad.. mine is getting up there and I cannot imagine life without him on the planet... he wants “Beyond the Sea at his funeral”(Bobbie Darrin) ... plus a lot of Beatles... and “Wish you were here”. Hang in, and ty for the beautiful story. ♥️
Its a Nice song i played it on my both parents funeral, so its Hard to listen on it! But keep your head up!
Everytime I hear this song it takes me back to my dad’s funeral, Mid February 2014, he passed Feb 16 @ 1:02AM. My parents 25th anniversary was the day before, Feb 15. Brings me back to 14 years old, looking at his blue casket with the gold rails.
