You need to listen to Kathy’s Song. He has to be one of the greatest singer-songwriters of all time.

In a few days 21st March I will be 89 if spared. Many years ago as a soldier "up country" Yemen on a crappy transistor I heard The sound of silence. A student of classic literature and poetry I knew this guy was something special. Paul is the greatest and I discharged myself from hospital in order to be at Manchester arena to see his Homeward bound show. Paul Simon is a one off and the lady who says his songs and music bring tears to her eyes is not alone, an 89 year old veteran, tough as boot leather tries to pretend he's unmoved, without much success. We will not live forever Paul, but your words will live in people's hearts whilst ever there is music and poetry.

Yes it is a pity, but what else do you expect? This entire project was, as ever, a vehicle for Paul Simon's self-indulgence. He cared as much about those performers as he did about the victims of apartheid on whom he turned his back when he went against the pleas of anti-apartheid organisations and individuals worldwide not to break the sanctions then imposed on South Africa, but what did that matter, compared to his prestige?

I agree, the writing and musical craftsmanship are just something else. "They say losing love is like a window to the heart / everybody sees you're blown apart / everybody sees the wind blow" has to be one of the best pop lyrics ever written

Another beautiful subtlety: he starts in the singular: "I'm going", then it becomes "We are going" and then "We are ALL going to be received in Graceland". Why does that move me so...?

I saw this great grassroots band in a pub when the lead singer was my old mate John ' Woody ' James . A great night .R.i P. John , the best mate you could ever meet .

There has never been a greater song writer and singer than Paul Simon and very, very few come anywhere close.

The great Paul Simon

The actual music is all the sound and beat of South Africa.

My dad was a gigger & when he used go out to gig my mum would put on the "Concert in Central Park" & I would think Paul was my Dad & Garfunkel was his band mate 😁 Love ya Paul ❤

After Sounds Of Silence Paul Simon was ahead of the curve for the rest of his career. Stand back and admire the Mozart of popular music.

One of, if not my dads all time favorite artist and musician is paul simon, and my mam got him tickets to see him in dublin for the farewell tour a few years ago. They left for the concert and on the way my dad fell ill and could not attend, my mam offered for me to go with her so the tickets didnt go to waste, and i almost passed on the opportunity as i didnt know much about paul simon/simon & garfunkel. I had a flash before my eyes as i hesitated thinking if i didnt go, id regret it for the rest of my life, and so off i went to the best concert ive ever seen, and its now so sentimental to me that i went. Not to mention, graceland is easily my favorite song of all time now. What a memory ill cherish for life ❤

I remember in our teenage years me and my brother would just chill & listen to Paul Simon albums. 👍...my brother used to adore Paul Simon & all his Simon & Garfunkel LPs & CD's. In fact, he learned his own chords on his acoustic guitar while carefully listening to every lyric and chord that Paul played. "We're All Destined To Bouncing Into The Graceland ". A.A...Amen.
