Wish You Were Here Pink Floyd first banded together in 1965 with Roger Barrett as the “creative force” behind the band (Barnes). However‚ drug and alcohol abuse led to his mental breakdown. His unreliability led to the band’s search for a new lead singer. The album cover and the song are both a metaphor for the band’s experiences with Barrett. Pink Floyd’s 1975 album cover of Wish You Were Here portrays artistic elements of light‚ destruction‚ and unique placement. They reflect the band’s skeptical
