Sound of Silence(?)

Here's two gentlemen doing 'the Sound of Silence' many miles apart.

BTW, did you notice these two videos carry the same date?

I'm rather awed by it's ironic beauty.

Simo...Si..S...Simon'ed?

The post "Garfunkeled".

That's not to say I don't like Paul's voice, because I really do. It's just that "Being Simon'ed" doesn't work and all the things I said about Artie's voice are just simply not true for Paul's voice.
However, his voice has a sweetness and a boy-next-door kind of quality which I like; you can easily relate to it. And of course, in the end, the signature Simon & Garfunkel sound was these two voices in sweet dissonance and from what I understood Roy Halee's magicianship.

According to the site I found this on: A gentle, surprised ginea pig

I don't know what I'm saying. Why don't you go read a good book (Artie's got a list for you) or listen some good music. I've got just the artists for you.

Stranger to Stranger

About a week or something ago Paul Simon released his umpteenth album, Stranger to Stranger. Go listen! It’s actually good.

If I sound surprised, it’s because I am. I tend to get bored with albums quite quickly and just listen a few songs before I turn it off or start dreaming about other things not hearing anything anymore. This album…Can’t say it had my undivided attention (that would be a trick), but I do want to go back and listen again.
