" Did they get you to trade Your heros for ghost? Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change?" Those words haunt me after my son took his own life in 2009!
My best friend passed away a few years ago and was learning to play guitar. This was the song he always practiced. Wish I could have heard him play it like you. Thank you
I just spent half an hour looking for a good cover of Wish You Were Here. My search stopped right here. This is so darned good musically and emotively.
This song is over 4 decades old, yet so fresh in our minds. It appeals to all, whether old or young. And once you hear it, it stays with you for days to come. Long live Pink Floyd.
Quelle propreté musicale, les notes tombent juste, les années passent et l'on tape toujours boyce avenue dans la barre de recherche avec la même joie de découvrir les bons morceaux de l'époque
I discovered Boyce Avenue here in the UK in a local coffee shop one lunchtime. I asked what the music was that was playing and was told it was Boyce Avenue. I've been hooked ever since.
How I wish, how I wish you were here We're just two lost souls swimming in a fishbowl year after year Running over the same old ground, what have we found? The same old fears, wish you were here What a lyrics and what a performance!!❤️
Been a Floyd fan since my early teens and I'm now 64..been playing the acoustic now for over 2 years and adore playing this absolute classic.. Have seen many many people cover it and for me this is as good as I've seen.. Great vocal too 👌
By the time this song was being written, I was being born!! 1975... So glad to watch you guys performing my favorite song ever, amazingly!!! Thank you!!! 😍🙏🏻
I’m a french woman and i'm a big fan of Pink Floyd and Gilmour. I’ve been listening to Boyce Avenue for a few years now and I’ve always liked their covers so what a surprise I had when I saw and listened to this one. A pure auditory happiness ... So, just ... Thank you ! 👏🏻 ❤️
I spent the last 7-8 years being jealous and making fun of these guys because I was a real musician who wrote original music and they were famous for doing covers, but now that I'm over it, I can understand why they are so popular. They don't just do covers. They capture the soul of the song in a way a simple cover could ever do! Wow!
I needed this rendition so much. This was me and my dads song and he's been gone for 4 years now.. looking to play a new version at my wedding for my dad's moment. Loved this very much
I lost my mom just a week before this was posted. This was one of her all time favorites and one I’ve been coming back to frequently to remember her. Thank you.
I discovered Boyce Avenue in 2010 in high school. All That We Have Left and All We're Meant To Be both got me through some pretty dark days... Just now rediscovering! So pumped that you're still around and still sounding stellar!
From the lyrics, we believe that this song is about selling one's own beliefs. Because you have sold the beliefs you have, then, you can no longer have something to defend. That's why you need other people to be able to live properly and live happily.

Thank you for doing this amazing rendition of one Pink Floyd's most poignant songs. The main refrain of the song, "wish you were here", is so apropos, given that so many people are separated from each other due to this COVID-19 social distancing, and therefore long for the companionship that is being denied them. The song is so timely despite being written so many decades ago. It expresses our need for human connection.
man.. i'm so happy to see you guys.. even during such immense conditions around the world.. you guys are still out there spreading positivity.. it really is amazing.. and alejandro.. sir it is just a pleasure to listen to your voice.. all the time sir.. but i still do wonder that how the recording studio and the people is still fully functioning.. i wish you my prayers and be well and be safe dear members of boyce avenue!!!!
You can tell at the end of it he wanted to keep playing with how his hand kept going back to the guitar but not touching it lol That's how a song is supposed to make you feel you never want it to the end
Thanks for making me cry! This is one of the best covers I have ever heard! I have been following you since I was 18 and I’m 31 now. Huge fan! Thank you for everything you do!!!
Not to many people cover Pink Floyd songs these days, and I love that you chose "Wish You Were Here" one of my favorites, nicely done, the guitars sound awesome guys🎸👌
Tem muitos covers que eles fazem que são melhores que os originais, tipo Despacito, só gostei da música depois que eles fizeram o cover, as originais deles também são boas demais.
@@BuskEntulho- É uma coisa engraçada para mim. Morei em Portugal muitos anos atras. Estudei bastante a idioma…. "o protugese do rei!". Acho que perdi o jeito. Hoje…. uso-o muito pouco. É divertido lê-lo e saber que ainda posso compreendê-lo. Tem um ótimo dia!!
Não costumava gostar de covers que não fossem fiéis as versões originais das músicas, até conhecer vcs 😍. A melhores versões, algumas se tornam ainda mais lindas com vcs do que com a verdadeira fonte, meus ouvidos só agradecem ❤.
Impressive how his voice fits into the songs ... sometimes I think it looks better than the original! Impressionante como a voz dele encaixa nas músicas..as vezes eu penso que fica melhor que o original !
Cover is Close to original, but his voice is different. Imagine if this guy was sing ing this song 40 years ago. It will never be so famous. Original David"s voice is very specific and masculine. Nobody can't beat that (in this song).
You guys choose some of the very best songs. This is definitely in my top 5 and you freaking just slayed it. So good. Keep it coming. You guys are some of the best musicians I have ever seen.
I’m blown away. I thought I heard some sick Pink Floyd covers. I always said that no cover could ever hold a candle to Van Morrison’s Comfortably Numb. I was never a Pearl Jam fan. But this...this is exquisite.
Ahhh...the marvelous, sparkling, shimmering 12 string! As for your voice; sometimes LESS is more! Peaks and valleys. Your voice is the same from beginning to end. Robbing us of the fantastic nuances of your voice.
Boyce Avenue - this is both my mom and I’s favorite band and favorite song and I’ve yet to listen to a cover give it justice like you have. There were tears listening to it last night. I miss my mom very much. Thank you for creating a beautiful moment for me out of nowhere. This is why I love you guys so much.
Never had my father around to show me how life goes, but I had my grand father who taught me more to life then anyone else, even depression made him end him his own life, I have a lot to be grateful of from his wise and kind words! Wish you were here big A ❤️🤘 I'm the man I am today thanks to you
Acoustic is more relatable to what original is for dying street songs and I will never missed this kind ❤️ that is still present here till this day.... Seriously I cannot express I love how they did this so easily without any wrongs, the guitar where just flow with rhythm...♥️
Have been listening to Floyd Gilmore from the 70s. Must say this is brilliant . First time I listened to this group 6 Oct 2020. Now will keep listening . Keep it up guys . Let's listen to some robert plant . If I was a carpenter . Think you will do justice to it . Will wait .
Words can't do justice to the talent and the love of music that you put into the covers of some of the worlds greatest music, Thank you for making my time listening to you a wonderful musical journey.
I’ve never noticed this song before even though I immediately recognized it... you guys made me finally notice a song and its beautiful lyrics with your voices!

He LOVED Pink Floyd.
" Did they get you to trade
Your heros for ghost?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?"
Those words haunt me after my son took his own life in 2009!

💔😔 lost my daugther in 2009 at her birth. This year (2024) my mother passed away. Wish they were here.
My best friend passed away a few years ago and was learning to play guitar. This was the song he always practiced. Wish I could have heard him play it like you. Thank you
So sorry for your loss :(
The thing I love about Boyce Avenue is that they always do the classics justice. You nail every one you cover

The first time I heard a Boyce avenue cover, I was in school. Now I'm 22 and straight outta grad school. I stuck around!🌞
Same 😍
Hey, me too!
Same! 🥰
I think I'm about 10 years strong now. They are great!
Dude, I was like 12-13, and I think I was in like 6th grade when I first heard them, and now I'm 23 and been out of college 2 years. It's crazy.
These guys must feel the Pink Floyd vibes to play it so well. Great cover. Thanks. 👍
I lost my mom just a week before this was posted. This was one of her all time favorites and one I’ve been coming back to frequently to remember her. Thank you.
Man,i wish u be okay all the time Gbu
I was born with pink Floyd mate. Lived and breathed it. Raising my family too it. Great cover. Well done
I could listen to this everyday for the rest of 2020 and beyond.

Solo, arranjos, cenário,... a música se torna só um detalhe....e que detalhe! Clássico que embalou a junventudo de muita gente....
I cry whenever I hear these gifted guy's play this song, reminds me of my babysitter who left us in 2017. And I do wish she was here
Doesn't matter who does this song, I cry every single time. This is such a beautiful cover. Well done gents.

i cry too, very sentimental
Me too most the time. So much memories with my pops 💚

Beautiful, beautiful Pink Floyd version. This is really amazing guys! Love this song.
One of the most touching and heartfelt songs ever written and this is an awesome cover.
Loving the guitar's and that voice!!
💙💙💙💙
I have no idea what people write here so lengthy. I'm a big Pink Floyd fan - but this is better than the original - really great!!!
He has never disappointed his viewers by his covers. He is always the best and real
This was great... there's a few I could do without, but he made CREED sound good... that's impressive.
Iv done this song better
Bruh okay
You can tell at the end of it he wanted to keep playing with how his hand kept going back to the guitar but not touching it lol
That's how a song is supposed to make you feel you never want it to the end
They never fail to impress
I agree
Never!!!
Ãm?
Now this is what you call real music . No hip hop here . Love it . Good memories.
É incrível a qualidade de som e instrumentos desses caras, chega arrepia, Boyce é minha banda favorita!!
Thanks for making me cry!
This is one of the best covers I have ever heard! I have been following you since I was 18 and I’m 31 now. Huge fan! Thank you for everything you do!!!
The 1st time i heard one of your covers i said "Wow"
The 100th time,i said "Woah,how fast did those 5 hours pass"
Not to many people cover Pink Floyd songs these days, and I love that you chose "Wish You Were Here" one of my favorites, nicely done, the guitars sound awesome guys🎸👌
Crazy easy song - that almost no one plays correctly. They nailed it.
