pink floyd - wish you were here

An overtrodden path? Perhaps. But this is one of those occasions when an overtrodden path just goes to show that the one who first stroke it did one hell of a job and that many others have appreciated their work and followed in their footsteps. This is one of the songs I can't help being touched by. The partly wise, partly bitter, partly condescendingly amused beginning gets me every time... and then the fishbowl part... I can't help but close my eyes, bite my lower lip and nod in approval. Not much else to say to that. To add something would be to spoil it. Such a simple track, saying so much and touching so many...
