That was the good headline for a piece on Simon Armitage's poem from October 2025 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the release of Pink Floyd's 'Wish you were Here' in December 2025.
The Poet Laureate, who is a geography graduate, has written about the music which meant a lot to him growing up in Huddersfield. He talks about the punks (who I remember were still very visible in the city centre of Huddersfield in 1982 when I arrived there to start my degree at the Polytechnic), and was also involved in music himself.
