1981. Central Park New York. They expected 80-100.00 people and that night more than 500.000 people gathered there. My parents too. I love the Disturbed version but for my parents nothing beats the original. Two voices one guitar and a huge message.
Paul Simon wrote this when he was 21 years old. At this concert, in 1981 they were about to turn 40 years old. This year they will be 83 years old. Yes that is the Paul Simon you are thinking about. They broke up as a duo in 1970. But they did several reunion concerts. They started singing together at 11 years old & had their first hit record at 16 years old.
This song is a timeless masterpiece from the mid 1960's, and has been one of my favorites since then. Beautiful and poetic lyrics so well expressed by their amazing voices. I still can't figure out what it means, but I think of themes of loneliness, disillusionment, inability to communicate, and sadness about how things are when I hear this song. I think this performance was from a free concert in Central Park, New York City, and there were around 100,000 people in attendance. This was their first big hit song, and they went on to have many great songs. Paul Simon writes their lyrics, and he is considered one of the greatest songwriters of all time. If you haven't already heard Bridge Over Troubled Waters, please don't miss out on that experience. It is one of the most beautiful songs ever written, and the lyrics are easy to understand.
Angelic voices... simple but beautiful
Still can watch THE GRADUATE knowing the soundtrack will comfort me. 😊

I would encourage you to check out more Simon and Garfunkel. You would never be disappointed. God bless you.

Written by Paul Simon. This classic by Simon and Garfunklel is still the best version.
Paul Simon is one of the best songwriters of all time.
This song is all about loneliness in modern society - no talks to each other or acknowledges them.
Meant to sing together ✌🏻
Paul Simon has a lot of Solo hits, pop "Fifty Ways To Leave Your Lover" and worldbeat, "Graceland" are just a couple great examples 👍
