This song is not about Syd. Shine on You Crazy Diamond and Wish You Were Here are about him, but Welcome to the Machine and Have a CIgar are about the music industry. Have a Cigar is obviously lighter than Welcome to the Machine. Just look at the lyrics.
By the way, I think this is a great cover. Foo Fighters did this song their way and it came out very good. Primus also does a good cover of this song.
