This signed sheet music is for Vera by Pink Floyd, autographed by the legendary “Forces’ Sweetheart” Vera Lynn, whose name and legacy inspired the song. Released in 1979 on the band’s landmark concept album The Wall, Vera is a short but deeply emotional piece written by Roger Waters. The song references Vera Lynn, whose voice gave hope to millions during World War II with songs like We’ll Meet Again. In The Wall, Vera evokes themes of loss, absence, and longing, reflecting on the devastation of war and the separation of families. Though less than two minutes long, its haunting lyrics and orchestral backing serve as a powerful interlude in the narrative of isolation and trauma that defines the album. Vera Lynn (1917–2020), whose career spanned eight decades, became a British national treasure during World War II. Known worldwide as the “Forces’ Sweetheart,” she lifted spirits with her warm, reassuring voice and songs such as We’ll Meet Again and The White Cliffs of Dover. Dame Vera Lynn’s cultural impact was so enduring that even decades later, Pink Floyd invoked her name to symbolize both nostalgia and the painful cost of conflict. Owning this signed sheet music for Vera is more than a collectible—it represents a rare bridge between two towering cultural legacies: Pink Floyd’s The Wall, one of rock’s most influential albums, and Vera Lynn, whose voice defined hope in wartime. For fans of Pink Floyd, admirers of Vera Lynn, and collectors of crossover cultural history, this artifact embodies both music’s power to heal and its ability to transcend generations.
