So few hits between this duo but oh what great songs they are. Whatever differences led them to separate, it is great to see them come together, sing this masterpiece, and show the ultimate respect to one another at the end. This comment will be buried with the rest, but wanted to give the credit these two deserve.

      +Jasder If we're talking mainstream music, then you're right. If you're talking music in general, you're wrong. There is still a lot of great Music being produced. It's just that the really passionat people have moved to different genres. For example, the rock/metal scene has grown into something really great, while some other genres like classic folk-rock has dissapeard. That's because the same kind of people who once wrote comfortably numb and sound of silence are now writing music in totally different genres.

Lung cancer (able to conquer) clogged major artery my BRILLIANT doc grafted and a hyper thyroid we've been able to calm. Thru it all I used music to calm the fear. Putting our trust in total strangers is so hard but they earned my trust. My 3 girls are thru college and strong. I used to say I'd work til I died bc I loved my career but retired last yr And now hang out with my grandkids.
      Hope you're remaining calm still with music as you walk thru some strife. It's hard to be powerless but seems you know the way to calm...peace to you Mark. Just walk towards retirement. Lawdy it's great 😃.

      I don't think Art sounds horrible here, maybe not exactly the same, the only difference is he is singing at a lower key than the key he usually sings at. He still sounds very good actually. I think he smoked a lot which is why his voice might sound a little dark because of that. But it isn't terrible. His voice is just at a lower key in pitch. It still sounds great and he is still able to hit the notes, just one key and pitch down. Very good Art! Glad you are coming back!!!!!

    This song, along with “The Sounds of Silence “ bring back so many fond memories! I’m 70 years old. As a kid , I would spend time staying at our family farm for a few weeks every Summer. I was 12 or 13 the first time I heard “The Sounds.....”, along with my surrogate Grandmother. I was amazed that someone “her age” liked that song!😆So many happy memories! I tell adults in their 20,s and 30,s to cherish and make the most of their time now, because they will make their best memories while they’re young! That certainly has been my experience, and most of the people I know in their later years! 🤔🤔
