Wish You Were Here
"Wish You Were Here" is a song by American alternative rock band Incubus and the lead single from their fourth studio album album, Morning View. Released in late summer 2001, it peaked at #2 on the Modern Rock and #4 on the Mainstream Rock Charts that year. "Wish You Were Here" would become one of the band's most well known songs and be included on the 2009 greatest hits compilation Monuments and Melodies.
Prior to release, the track was played during Moby's Area:One summer festival in 2001. It was announced as Morning View's lead single in June that year. Guitarist Mike Einziger noted that "Wish You Were Here" was one of the last songs written for Morning View and that "the content is about being happy living for the moment and not looking forward to the future as some event." Vocalist Brandon Boyd also elaborated on its meaning:
"The song wasn't specifically about a person. It was about me acknowledging a very brief moment in my life and in my experience with all of these guys in making this record. In that moment, I wish that I had somebody to go, 'I love you, man.' I was wishing that there was someone there to share that moment with."
"Wish You Were Here" captures the serenity and comradery of the band's summer experience with blissful melody and shimmering instrumentation. Throughout the verses, delayed guitar notes ring out over a crawling bass line and turntable scratching and sampling. A firm snare signals the chorus which invigorates the track with a soaring vocal harmony and power chords grating with overdrive.
