Wish You Were Here 

To correct the above entry, Pink Floyd never delved into quadrophonics because "There weren't enough loonies ready to position themselves exactly in the canter of the room for the maximum listening experience."

Wish You Were Here, along with Animals and Dark Side of the Moon, is one of the best Pink Floyd albums. It dealt mainly with the abscence of Syd Barrett, but also took a stab at record companies and the music industry. The songs on Wish You Were Here are (in order):

- Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Part 1)
- Welcome To The Machine
- Have A Cigar
- Wish You Were Here
- Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Part 2)
JIM: Hey! Watcha got in that there hand of yours?
SALLY: Why, it's Pink Floyd's album, Wish You Were Here, of course!
JIM: Look! Over there!
SALLY: Hey! Give me back Pink FLoyd's album, Wish You Were Here!
JIM: No! It rocks too much ass!

Wish You Were Here 

1) British progressive rock band Pink Floyd's ninth studio album. It mainly deals with the absence of former band member Syd Barrett. The album cover features a highly recognizable image of a normal man shaking hands with a man on fire in a movie studio backlot. One of the two Pink Floyd albums to have the text on the spine in the CD version reading from bottom to top, along with Animals. The track listing is as follows:
1. Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Parts I-V) - (13:40)
2. Welcome to the Machine - (7:31)
3. Have A Cigar - (5:08)
4. Wish You Were Here - (5:34)
5. Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Parts VI-IX) - (12:31)

Probably Pink Floyd's third most famous work, bested only by Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall.

2) A song on the album "Wish You Were Here," notable for it's very distinctive acoustic guitar line.

3) An Incubus song that has nothing to do with the Pink Floyd work, and whose popularity pales in comparison.
1) - Have you heard "Wish You Were Here"?
- Hell yeah! That's one of my favourite albums!

2) - Have you heard "Wish You Were Here"?
- Hell yeah! That's one of my favourie songs!

3) - Have you heard "Wish You Were Here"?
- Hell yeah! That's one of my favourite albums!
- No, the Incubus song.
- Umm...no.

The word 'flag' as pronounced by people with thick Belfast accents. The term is a perfect encapsulation of the disproportionate and overblown reaction to the removal of the Union Jack (as in 'de fleg') from above City Hall in Belfast. Where previously it had flown for 365 days per year, it is now flown on 17 designated days of the year - in line with many other British cities.

The event caused a portion of the Protestant community ('fleggers') to make international pricks of themselves as they proceeded to wreck the fucking place, claiming it was another erosion of a 'British' identity they perceive to have been under attack since the horrifying spectre of equality reared its head in Northern Ireland.

The word 'fleg' - and indeed 'fleggers' - fittingly describes a section of humanity unconcerned with knowledge, reality or the vagaries of the English language. Like America's tea-baggers they are ruled by instinct, fear and paranoia with a side dish of rampant bigotry and startling ignorance of the world around them.
"Wat de fuck like! The taigs got de fleg took down! Let's wreck de fuckin place! No surrender!"

"De fleg has been took down! Before ye know it there'll be a united Ireland! Attack Short Strand! God Save The Queen!"
