Avenged Sevenfold - Wish You Were Here

This song was my late wife's favorite song by Floyd. She loved A7F and introduced me to them. This was published after she died and it hit me so hard when I just now heard this randomly on youtube. She used to play So Far Away all the time, ironically it is now a song I play to mourn her. Thank Avenged Seven Fold for this cover, it means more to me than you can imagine.

Welcome to The Saddest YouTube Comment Section. Read a few of the comments and get your heart broken by all the stories of all the people and their loved ones. It's beautifully sad. Never will you see so much love and so much pain on this website, at the same place. Much love to all the awesome people here, your stories around this song give me chills.

So, so you think you can tell Heaven from hell Blue skies from pain Can you tell a green field From a cold steel rail? A smile from a veil? Do you think you can tell? Did they get you to trade Your heroes for ghosts? Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change? And did you exchange A walk on part in the war For a lead role in a cage? How I wish, how I wish you were here We're just two lost souls Swimming in a fish bowl Year after year Running over the same old ground And how we found The same old fears Wish you were here How I wish, how I wish you were here We're just two lost souls Swimming in a fish bowl Year after year Running over the same old ground And how we found The same old fears Wish you were here

4:20 the guy in a wheelchair crowd surfing with a metallica shirt on. Absolute legend

My Dad is a Pink Floyd fan And I’m an Avenged Sevenfold fan I showed him this cover and he found it awesome

Showed my father this song 6 Months before he passed. He was a die hard Pink Floyd fan and thought that he wouldn’t like this version. To my surprise, he loved it. Miss ya pops. Fly high old man

Everything in this cover. The voice, the melody, the video. They don't disappoint. 🖤

R.I.P. the Rev, wish you were here with us <3

We all wish you were here Jimmy! FoREVer!

This is my dad's song he passed away when I was 26 I'm now 31 and just heard this the other day. A7x is one of my favorite bands. This means so much. Thank you! 💚💚 Wish you were here pops! Rip

This song hits you in all the right places.

To my beautiful daughter Emily, I dedicate this song to your memory. RIP my beautiful baby girl.

When the crowd helped the man in the wheelchair crowd surf, that hit my heart hard. I've always loved these guys ever since I heard them the very first time but to see fans help this man crowd surf hit me hard because my father is in a wheelchair too and I never see that kind of selfless thoughts and actions toward him, a7x just breeds passionate fans. Love you guys foREVer.

Huge Pink Floyd fan here!! and i cannot believe how PERFECTLY done this cover is!!! wow!!!

The view of M. Shadows lifting his son after the concert was touching AF.. I love these guys..

Best thing to randomly check YouTube to see

This song hits all the right points. At first they were afraid that you would turn it into another song, in an unflattering way. Your performance respects the original, and hits even harder in the sad places. I remembered my friend who I lost in the war, who I wish was here with us, and would have heard this performance.. I can already imagine the smile that would have appeared on his face.. But he will always remain 22 years old. Miss you my friend, fly as high and as far as you can

I heard this song while 1300 miles away from my family. I was lucky enough to use that time to make the changes I needed to finally get them back and earn their trust back. I move back in next month with my wife and daughters after 4 years of being removed. Thank you guys. One of the best covers ever.
