Subject: Best Simon and Garfunkel song!

Posted by: CoolTeen
Date: Sep 01 11

It's hard to choose.
But, I'd go with 'The Boxer' (Ooohhh! ^_^) and 'The Sound Of Silence'.
What about you?

So many good songs. I love "The Sound of Silence". Also, the Paul Simon song "American Tune" is a favorite of mine. He recorded it solo but has performed it with Garfunkel at reunion concerts.

Bridge Over Troubled Water has always resonated with me.

'I Am a Rock' has been my personal anthem for decades.
'The Dangling Conversation', 'Sound of Silence', 'A Most Peculiar Man', and 'Richard Cory' are also favourites.

The second album I ever bought was a Simon and Garfunkel. Great stuff :-)

Paul wrote this song during Art's time filming in "Catch-22".

Hard to say, they have so many great ones. I guess my favorite would probably be "Cecilia".

Three songs came to me straight away: "The Boxer", "Cecilia" and "The Sound of Silence". Such fantastic writing.

"Homeward Bound" and "Sound of Silence" are on a tie for me.

I like Cecelia, Sounds of Silence, and the 59th Street Bridge Song (Feeling Groovy)

Also Bob Norwegian Wood is the Beatles

I love all of their songs so it's hard to pick just one. Here are a few I really like:

1. "The 59th Street Bridge Song" (Feelin' Groovy)
2. "For Emily, Wherever I May Find Her"
3. "El Condor Pasa"
4. "I Am A Rock"
5. "Bridge Over Troubled Water"

"The Only Living Boy In New York" - glad to see this one mentioned. It's probably not their best song, but it's always been my personal fav.

I also like Me And Julio Down By The Schoolyard. It is a Paul Simon song but they have performed it together.
