Simon and Garfunkel

Well not a cult band of any time. I love them and while am at writing about random thoughts, they seem to be constantly crossing my mind today. Those who have not heard of them… please do so. Maybe not very popular with the generation today, but any music lover of our parent’s time would recall at least one song.

I was introduced to them like many other songs and singers through my parents. Yes they are the sole reason why I like music. As a 2 month old I would sleep to old English music!

Coming back to the band, well it’s a two man show – Paul and Art. What I like about the songs are not the usual deep voice that is so bloody attractive, but the lyrics which a layered and sometimes so on-your-face that it comes as a blow.

My favorite songs:

April come she will

Bridge over troubled water

Homeward bound

I am a rock

Rosemary and thyme

El condor pasa

The dangling conversation …..

The list does not end at all…just that these are a few that I recall off hand….

They have a website now: http://www.simonandgarfunkel.com/

Visit it sometime and check it out! Its always good to discover some good music and it gives me a high to introduce you my friend to some amazing music! J
