Pink Floyd - it's hard not to love them or at least respect them for their ground breaking original style, profound lyrics, themed albums, ...

We've been into Pink Floyd since our teenage years. We even went to see Roger Water's "The Wall" tour back in 2013 and left the stadium mesmerised and floating on a natural high.

Yet we have never covered one of their songs.

We sure learned the solo parts for "Another Brick In The Wall" and worked hard on the smooth bends and fluent runs, but most of their songs didn't lend themselves too well to be covered by 2 guitarists or a 4 piece rock 'n' roll band.

But then there's "Wish You Were Here". A song with a purported backstory so sad that it's hard not to get emotional when reading up on it. A tragic masterpiece, partially inspired by their lost band member Syd Barrett (or at least open to interpretation).

We thought it would be a great choice for a duo session ...

He hope you like this one! ♥

Best version of this I've heard. No disrespect to Pink Floyd, but this hits all the right sounds and feelings. The guitars are perfect and the girls harmony is unmatched. One of their best for covers.

My brother passed away one week ago. For him and me, Pink Floyd was the best. I haven't been able to let my emotions out, so thank you so very much for giving me permission to cry. Well done!!

[Dazzily]

From a 76 year old Pink Floyd devotee. That was very very very good ladies. You made me cry

It's been a while since I've watched this video. I'd almost forgotten just how amazingly good the MonaLisa Twins are with this song.

[piggly-wiggly]

I wish the 120 Million who've seen the Pink Floyd original would come over and give the MLT version a listen. I think they'd be pleasantly surprised.

This song has such an emotional significance for me to begin with. I'm sitting here bawling and it's like free therapy. Thank you for this and all you do.

[VirginiaBikeWoman]

I was a Marine off the coast of Iran in 1979. It was the middle of the hostage crisis. A sailor was playing this on his guitar, quite randomly another joined in singing. It was all beautiful and surreal. I think now of the friends I’ve lost over the years since then. Wish you were here.

[piggly-wiggly]

When you have real talent, you don't have to hide behind a wall of sound and studio effects. The MonaLisa Twins are phenomenal.

[timtv]

I've been listening to this one for months and still haven't found the right words to describe how it makes me feel. Two beautiful souls and two beautiful guitars. This may be the most beautiful piece of music I've ever heard. It's not even my favorite Pink Floyd song. You just play it so well. Thank you Mona and Lisa.

[martinlamontfineart]

Oh man, that opening line "So, so you think you can tell...." sent tingles down my spine and sent me down memory lane to my youth in the 60's when the best music ever was being played on the radio and when my journey with great bands such as Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Yes, Rainbow, Deep Purple, Beatles etc began as they were just entering the mainstream. Music like this has never been and will never be improved upon.... at least not in my lifetime.

[robertcavalier]

Adroitly harmonic; well-paced; approaching fabulous! These ladies interpret the tune so well! Thank you! * Cav *

[leonardofabio]

Beatles and Pink Floyd the best bands of history of world music
