I just want to give him a hug
Song For the Asking is one of his finest work I feel...
Wonderful Interview!
I saw Paul in concert in the late 90s, SF Bay Area. Apparently he'd changed his mind about singing Mrs Robinson because he did sing it. When he got to the line about Joe DiMaggio the audience erupted in a spontaneous LOUD cheer- it seemed to really startle Paul. Maybe he didn't know that the concert site was the next town over from DiMaggio's hometown, folks around there are fiercely proud of that fact.
Love Joe Dimaggio Park in North Beach. He and Marilyn were married off Dolores Park.
Love this... another outstanding OUTSTANDING interview... thank you...!
Only Living Boy is this medieval glorious choral chant. It's just heartbreakingly beautiful. Paul is the only 60s guy whose work got BETTER in the 80s.
Paul you and Art are the best together and solo careers too! I love you both but you are still best together!!! We love you both!!!
I like all their albums and the songs and not the auto-tuned remakes.
"I Am A Rock" is one of my favorite S & G songs. A timeless composition.
Omg this is so reflective of something I just watched. Miley Cyrus on Howard stern was talking about how she outgrows her songs. This is exactly what she meant. And she said that Paul Simon told her to sing what she wants but give her fans the hits. He knows.
Very cool...will check her out on Howard
What makes Paul Simon cringe (or some of it) is still the classics listened to today. Once more an interesting and entertaining interview. Thank you
I love Paul and arty they are epic ❤❤😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤😊love Ronnie 8
Interesting when they discuss the tensions in the friendship and Costas refers to a "professional collaboration". And yes, while there is a "Simon & Garfunkel" sound, it's Paul Simon who writes all the songs. The cords, the words, the music, even most of the vocal arrangements. That's what a lot of people don't realize. It's not a balanced partnership and Simon has always felt a bit of burn that he is not recognized as the creative force behind the duo. It's glossed over.
Now they speak about the Beatles. Yes, the Beatles have a sound of course. But it's the Lennon/McCartney songwriting partnership that made the group and everyone knows that. That kind of awareness seems to be missing from Simon & Garfunkel because of the unique acoustical harmony they have in a generally folk-rock format. And I believe it's a massive sore spot for Simon...
❤
You can call me Al is way more cringe worthy than the Dangling Conversation and feelin' groovy combined .
I think it's meant to be just a nonsense song for fun, with a catchy tune. The video w/Paul & Chevy Chase was cringy and stupid... but check out the live performance from Zimbabwe 1987, it's great ! it's on the dailymotion site.
I love The Dangling Conversation!
I'm puzzled at PS rejection of the song; it's beautiful, it's insightful, it's different... it's everything S&G was!
No way! Great sing-along.
I kinda get why Paul Simon by 1991 had mixed feelings about the song. The melody is great, but some of the lyrics read like a young man trying a little too hard to prove to the world that, darn it, he *is* witty, verbose, smart and cultured. "No good times/no bad times/just the New York Times" and the references to Emily Dickinson and Robert Frost come to mind as examples. I can well imagine it felt a little cringe inducing to see your younger self do that.
@@kerriwilson7732Dangling Conversation is beautiful ❤
"We were the biggest group in the world with the exception of the Beatles from 1968 to 1970." I like Paul but I think his ego is pretty inflated here. Beach Boys, Cream, Rolling Stones, Zep, Pink Floyd... sold more albums in that period.
Consider too that via the film The Graduate many non-music buyers were absorbing Si&Gar
i don't get that feeli g at all
@@tomgardner8825 Well it's not a feeling... it's a blatent statement he made.
Wrong. You just wrote down names of famous bands. Zeppelin & Floyd were in their embryonic stage in the late 60s. Beach Boys were doing great work but were out of fashion at the time. Cream, Stones, yeah they were successful but I would bet you money S & G were selling more albums than either of those groups. He was just making an objective assessment about how popular they were at the time. And he is right.
@@lynnturman8157 Lynn, we are not all American. Just looking at our charts at that time when I was pre teen, there was only Mrs Robinson in the charts and it just scraped in at #9.
the rock makes him cringe?
disappointing..
