Una de las mejores canciones de la HISTORIA dentro de uno de los mejores discos de la Historia. Simple, bella, armoniosa.... Es una delicia escucharla, llenarse de alegria y felicidad. Hoy en esta mañana de otoño soleada es simplemente un placer disfrutar de ella una vez más. Desde 1986 formando parte de mi vida. Gracias Paul Simon por esta JOYA.
On an album with Graceland, Al, Diamonds, Bubble….why is this track the one I keep coming back to? Probably because of its simplistic beauty as well as in my opinion the most brilliant portrayal of the end of a relationship from the point of view of a middle aged man ever told.
Remember listening to this music back in the days when i was just a kid, That's about 25years ago. I loved it then as a kid, still loving now as I'm better getting the meaning of what was said
I never bought any LP or cassettes back in the days - Graceland was a rare exception to that rule, and I never regretted it. (Remember how you feel when you buy a whole album and there is maybe 2 songs that may be OK ?)
Reminds me of La Digue, beyond Praslin, further beyond Mahe, Seychelles. The further from Mahe the clearer it all gets. The true place to live. Far, far, away from everything and everyone.
I’ve always thought this was the hidden gem of the Graceland album.
I completely agree
That whole album was gems
I have no opinion about this, boys
As simple as it gets. What beats that unadorned melody and stuff that next-door guy's going through?
best song on album for sure. pure groove
Every few years I live through another Paul Simon song. The man wrote the story of my life before I lived it.
Oh my, this is so true!

Brilliant song from a brilliant album. First line must be the best first line in any song" Fat Charlie the archangel sloped into the room".
Its crazy how this is the best song ever
I owe this memory of loving this song to my dad. Repeated it over and over and over. Great love Paul
Instrumental beauty. This is the music that will probably greet us in the next realm
Not really his.
Let's all hope!
I have no opinion
Not really. This music wouldn't qualify as elevator music in Heaven. Guessing im right.. ❤

Paul Simon is one of my favourite song Writer, a kind of a legendary voice, creating beating songs, ballads, his live performances were very good
Hard to beat the melody of “I say the joke is on herrrrr”
This album is a gem !
I would know Paul Simon’s voice anywhere ❤️ Love all his music and admire him so much💐
My favorite song of the album.
As much as I love this album and them, I do believe Paul had feelings he couldn’t admit to
I love this drum heavy track, actually the thick bass across the whole album!
I love love love this whole entire album and play it every day and ir uplifts my spirits
The greatest song writer of the 20th Century without a doubt.
One of three Best with Bob Dylan and Neil Young
And Joni Mitchel
& R. Kelly

Mean guitar riffs on this piece. Bassist Bakhithi Khumalo and the late Ray Phiri I presume?
Exactly
Just sublime 😍
MASTERPIECE ❤❤❤❤❤
Discovered this masterpiece 22 years too late in 2008. One of Simon's best
Too bad they had to turn comments off on some of the other tracks. Such a great album - all of the songs. One of my favorite albums EVER!
How come they turned them off?
@@SkyOfTheUniverse I guess we'll never know.
fantastique album
great musicians and great groove
He is such a talented songwriter I have loved his music since I was 16 and I am now (71)
Graceland... Um dos albums que tanto nos acompanhou, e sempre nos acompanhará, nestas nossas andanças de Aqui e de Além... Saudade...
This is what musical genius is.

I dont want no part of this crazy love.
I dont want no part, none...ever
African passion hot crazy love that was more beautiful than this wide world I was oh my goodness 🥰💙💋

SEARCHING IN THE DEEP

Reminds me of La Digue, beyond Praslin, further beyond Mahe, Seychelles.
The further from Mahe the clearer it all gets. The true place to live.

"I don't claim to be happy about this boys, and I don't seem to be happy about that...

I’ve felt like Fat Charlie The Archangel for all of 2022…at least I’ve had a soundtrack for it!
….and then there’s all that weight to be lost.
"Fat Charlie the arch angel slopped into the room" who starts a song like this and gets away with it? , i
Love it
This song 🎵 is for everyone who rejects and denies this Tik Tok generation with no morality and pretend to be happy. I don't want no part. 😊
I've always loved this track, the music is soso, but the lyrics are so good.
Was this really meant for Art Garfunkel?
Fat Charlie and the arch angel file for divorce. Best line ever.
Fat charlie the archangel, not and
I'm getting divorced at the moment. Fat Charlie, c'est moi

No one knows.
And no one cares.
