Review of ‘Wish you were here’ from Dylan Tori – Dylan Tori returns with ‘Wish You Were Here,’ a torrent of emotion wrapped and paired perfectly with rock country vibes. A song that earns it’s place on everyone’s ‘Deep feels’ playlist. You know, that sonic therapy sesh we all turn to when shit gets heavy! As always Dylan’s signature husky voice hits just right. There’s something so raw and grounding in the way he sings and you feel that! You feel everything.
Written in the wake of a family bereavement, ‘Wish You Were Here’ began as a love song but evolved into a tribute to his late father, which works because the song itself walks the line between love and loss, holding both gently in its hands.
There’s this bittersweet beauty in the melody, soft, yet haunting. You don’t just hear his grief, you share it for a moment. The whole track feels like a letter that never got sent, but needed to be written.
For me, ‘Wish You Were Here’ is one of those songs that stays with you. A reminder of love, absence, and how music can heal in the most unexpected ways. Dylan has always had a way of connecting through sincerity. ‘Wish you were here‘ is personal, powerful, and it moved me more than I was ready for.

Funny how I can’t find my way
It’s like I just don’t have no aim
Without you here it’s like I wasn’t born at all
