Why is this important?
“Wish You Were Here” serves as a reminder to think twice before making decisions that could have long-term consequences. It also serves to commemorate Syd Barrett, who left the band due to his mental health issues, and to reflect on the impact of the deaths of many rock stars who died due to drug use and lifestyle.
