Tracklist Lyrics and Videos

01   Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Parts I-V (13:30)

02   Welcome to the Machine (07:26)

Welcome my son,
Welcome to the machine.
Where have you been?
It's alright we know where you've been.
You've been in the pipeline, filling in time,
Provided with toys and Scouting for Boys.

You bought a guitar to punish your ma,
And you didn't like school,
And you know you're nobody's fool,
So welcome to the machine.

Welcome my son, welcome to the machine.
What did you dream? It's alright we told you what to dream.
You dreamed of a big star, he played a mean guitar,
He always ate in the Steak Bar. He loved to drive in his Jaguar.
So welcome to the machine.

03   Have a Cigar (05:08)

Come in here, dear boy, have a cigar,
you're gonna go far,
you're gonna fly high,
you're never gonna die,
you're gonna make it if you try,
they're gonna love you.
I've always had a deep respect and I mean that most sincere;
the band is just fantastic, that is really what I think,
oh, by the way, which one's Pink?

And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?
We call it "Riding The Gravy Train".

We're just knocked out.
We heard about the sell out.
You're gonna get an album out,
you owe it to the people.
We're so happy we can hardly count.
Everybody else is just green,
have you seen the chart?
It's a hell of a start,
it could be made into a monster,
if we all pull together as a team.

And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?
We call it "Riding The Gravy Train".

04   Wish You Were Here (05:40)

So, so you think you can tell heaven from hell?
Blue skies from pain?
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

Did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
Did you exchange a walk-on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have we found?
The same old fears
Wish you were here

05   Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Parts VI-IX (12:22)

 A few words on the matter are necessary to describe five tracks of rare perfection, of pure psychedelia.

 When the stereo starts playing, it becomes clear why this album is a true milestone in the history of rock.


By Big D

 Pink Floyd, what are they? They are a ray of sunshine in a messy room.

 Only when you hear the four notes of 'Shine On' do you understand... that you have arrived... and have only just begun.


By Casacci91

 Pink Floyd has never let us down.

 Tell me, isn’t this the real music?


By Em

 "Wish You Were Here can be defined as a concept album about absence: of the word, but also of the individual and thought."

 "Pink Floyd were, are, and always will be the group that achieved pure perfection, both musically and ‘textually’."


By SydBarrett

 It was as if he had never left the group; indeed, he hovered like a ghost, bringing sad memories that then influenced, more or less, the songs and themes of Pink Floyd.

 A masterpiece, giving chills even today, undoubtedly one of the most beautiful songs of all time.
