Wish you were here

How can one not be moved by this song? Particularly when one is around seventeen?

Or when one’s twenty seven. Now, ten years between 17 and 27 – that’s a thought, and a mightly ramble of a post in the making.

    Neha, didn’t know you liked Pink Floyd! I used to perform this a lot wth my band back in the day…And if you like this song and others such as Coming Back to Life (my fav Floyd song) and Comfortably Numb, I’m sure you would like (or already do) David Gilmour’s solo efforts, especially his album ‘On an Island.’ Here’s the web address to the title track, On an Island. http://in.youtube.com/watch?v=qbWMpJ3SM0Q

    Hi Guys!
    Just wanted to send in a quick update- India’s First book on corporate blogging written by top CEO blogger Rajeev Karwal and social media researcher Preeti Chaturvedi titled “Corporate Blogging in India” was launched at the Oxford Bookstore in Delhi on the 10th of Dec. A hardback version of the book, priced at Rs 345 is available at all leading bookstores. We have created a blog for the same at Corporate Blogging in India. If you don’t find a copy at some bookstore, please order the same through our website http://www.wisdomtreeindia.com

    • This is just ridiculously funny. Someone is writing a book about corporate blogging, and on his behalf somebody else spams blogs??

      Why do I get the feeling this book won’t do well?

    like the song. but not the P.U.L.S.E version. prefer the original.

    and this song reminds me of one particular friend. i don’t usually sing songs, but on one particular occasion, this friend and I sang it out aloud as we meandered through the heavy koramangala traffic. and got into a few small fights over the lyrics.

    • I think the PULSE version has its own charm. I just immediately think of college (under-grad) whenever I hear Pink Floyd. Before I relied on the internets for everything, it was quite a task to work out lyrics to songs. It required constant rewinding and focus.
