Pink Floyd grew disillusioned with the music industry after Dark Side of the Moon. Wish You Were Here recounts the band's guilt and sadness over losing Syd Barrett as they hit it big, but also the cannibalistic world of the recording industry. The song is particularly notable for its synthesizers, which help to create an industrial-era world in which the individual is consumed by the collective "machine." It spooked me as a kid!
