The band wrote this as a tribute to Syd Barrett. The song was split in two to bookend the Wish You Were Here album. Barrett appeared in the studio with a shaved head and eyebrows while the band worked. Rick Wright and Roger Waters failed to recognize their former band mate. At first, the guys claimed they were recording this song, but years later they claim they can't remember if it was "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" or another track.
