Lyrics:
Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence

What I like about this version is that when you have earbuds in, the harmonies are split. In one ear, you have Paul Simon, and in the other you have Art Garfunkel. I prefer Simon's harmony the most. It gives the song quite a different sound.
I’ve noticed similar little things in other remastered music from the 60’s an 70’s. The way we listen to music is so much better I guess. Its kinda weird to pick up something that you’ve listened to for so long an never noticed it before. ☮️
When I first heard this we only had one ear bud.
It also made me realize my hearing is worse in one ear heh
@@gobigorange funny that I never noticed this before but can't unotice now! Like 2 different versions
woah you're right
One of the 10 greatest songs ever written. As important today as it ever was.
joseph lemko absolutely
I feel like this song is in a dark time. I feel like most people went through this song in their life.
What are the other 9?
I have too agree, my dear friend. There are a ton of great musics out there (and also great artists), but this song is... has a place in the annals of art.
I agree 100 %
Hello Simon & Garfunkel my old friends. I´ve come to listen to you again...
Nice to see you are still alive Vic!
@@yasirkusay1195 Thanks! Well 1986 was a really rough year for me...
Victor Vance How did you survive the ambush? Or was that Pete that was killed?

LYRICS:
Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
No one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
"Fools" said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls
And whispered in the sounds of silence
This song is a classic and will always be.
Nice copy n paste
yes
@@suneiku4303 lol
THANK YOUUUUU

As a child of the "60's when there was so much turmoil around the Vietnam War, and racial inequities, I think that Simon and Garfunkel wrote one of the greatest lines in any song ever written when they sang, "And the sign said "the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls, and tenement halls". To this day, those lyrics still make me think back to those troubling days and how powerful music was. Thanks to Paul and Art for writing and signing such meaningful music.
wow so inspirational, thanks for commenting!
@@DreamRust My pleasure. If you have the chance to listen to the music of the 1960's and the 1970's do so. The music of that era is so inspirational and meaningful and reflects the feeling of the people of that time. In my view, it is the greatest music ever written.
Was the line being literal? I never truly understood that line exactly
@@skcarkdenharckootsa5176 I believe it was literal. The people of the 60's had had enough of government and for the first time in many, many years they spoke out against "the establishment". We, the hippies, understood the injustices of the day. The Vietnam war was raging, but a troubled society was also very angry and disturbed about racial inequities, poverty, lack of opportunity for a decent education for all, segregation, and many. many more issues. For many, the only opportunity to express our outrage was to express it, in writing, to others being oppressed or sympathetic, where the masses could see it, such as on the subway walls and in the tenement halls. Our generation could no longer sit ideally by and we hoped for a better future for all. That's why I believe that the music of that era was the best of all time. It had meaning to it and served a purpose for the greater good. Peace Skcarkden.
Actually Martin Luther King was probably the "neon God" in this song. He was a smooth talker but I scientifically ascertained that he was a liar. He also made understated pro-slavery comments in his speeches which were eclipsed by his libertarian grandstanding. But inevitably, in a nation of abject racial oppression, there was to BE no sincere and successful advocate for blacks' freedom. The best King could do was the best he could do, with a stern warning to the imperialists. The whole scenario fits the song to a t.
This song makes me feel nostalgic for years I haven't lived through yet.
well written

Don't. Be happy.

@@darellpinuela6777 sorry, didnt get you
This is hands down one of the best songs ever written.
My parents played Simon & Garfunkle all the time when I was growing up. This music is literally one of my very first memories. 😍 My dad always said he and my mom fell in love to S & G. They've been married 51 years.
Wow i hope your parents are doing good
Ok
The lyrics touch deep because it's so true.
Garfunkel once said the song is about "the inability of people to communicate with each other, not particularly intentionally but especially emotionally, so what you see around you are people unable to love each other."
that makes sense. i love you
Tears in my eyes. Every single time! Music is a doorway to the deepest misteries, unknowable, unrelenting truths.
It’s really sad that this song was not appreciated as much as it deserved when it was released. Those who have felt the darkness in their lives have actually lived through these lyrics.
wow so inspirational, thanks for commenting!
There's chance close to 1 that most popular and recognizable songs around the world will have comments about being not appreciated or being underrated.
@@DreamRust i loss my 3rd guinea pig due to cancer at the beginning of last year on the 15th she’s in a better place now 😖😣😔😥😢😭
How is it not appreciated? Its litarally one of the most famous songs ever
This song has been covered by many artists, particularly recently. It's been very much appreciated.
This song is smooth like silk!
Paul Simon is one of the greatest poets and composers of our times.
Art Garfunkel has one of the most magnificent voices!
I very much agree with that assessment. Paul Simon created songs that are visual and evocative
Yep. So 100% true
True a magnificent composer n a lovely poet
His compositions are eternal
And it's poetry, indeed
This was my grandfathers favourite song and he would (according to my dad) have it on the radio when he could, I never got to meet him but I was told he was a great guy, so whenever I think of this song I think of him, it also makes me think of the fragility of life, my grandad only died at 48 ish, and that’s my dads age , I played this song once and it brought my dad to tears, thank you if you read this
Was my one of Late grandpa's favorite songs in the top 5, when I asked him in early 2010's.
This made me tear up a little...
In memory of your grandfather, even though you never met him.
@@Grumpy_Pirate thank you kindly
This is one of my favorite songs. Blessings to you and may you have many more precious memories of your grandfather everytime you hear this Masterpiece!
I just want to say that whoever mastered this song in the studio, I salute you for the split vocals. It's beautiful to listen to with headphones!!!! BEAUTIFUL
one of the veeeeery few times this really early stereo actually works quite well, haha- they need to fix the title though, this is clearly the original.. this one is the SOUND (no plural) of Silence, SOUNDS (with the plural) is the version with an electric band over top of S&G
@@TheLarryburns84
Some of the early stereo mixes are truly horrible, this is really well assembled. The split between the two of them is just perfect!
yeah its very BEAUTIFUL not only with headphones on old home stereo AMP sound is amazing
This is the original recording. When it and their first album didn't become hits, Paul Simon moved to England to try again there. He recorded an album called "The Paul Simon Song Book". According to the story I've read most, an engineer at Columbia after The Byrds started having hits with "electric folk", took this original tape and added drums and electric guitar and the company re-released it. It became an enormous hit. When Artie was informed, he told them that Paul had gone to England. Artie called him and Paul returned to the U.S. They recorded new, electrified versions of some of Paul's songs that he recorded in England and a few new ones and had a hit album. The rest, as they say, is history. I love both versions, but this one has a special place in my heart because their voices stand out so much better.
Tom Wilson
Still the best version in my opinion.
I prefer this to the later version with backing musicians. Paul and Art's harmonies are sublime.
Selwyn this version is the best version. Second would be the movie version.
I love this song sound of silence I never tired to listen
@@Lundy.Fastnet.Irish_Sea sublime lol!!!!!!!
This version is more original. And it is better. I hate the newer one. This one is the best SOUND OF SILENCE.
I thoroughly agree
I remember hearing this the first time. There was an FM station in Berkeley that played folk music late at night. A friend and I were listening to the radio in the dark when this song was played. It touched our souls. A hundred years from now, people will be listening t this song, and they will feel like it touched their souls.
Not only the lyrics and vocals are incredible, but the music is just so powerful.
*I know this is very annoying, or like spam, but I don't know how you could notice me being from Brazil, if you're curious, listen to my new trap remixI made of this song:* youtu. be/6I-6NPfRiuM
Silence: a metaphor for our ignorance of the bigger problem in society. To turn a blind eye to what is happening
👍✌️
🌷
Wrong song. You're thinking of "On the Turning Away" by Pink Floyd.
B fkin S. Its a personal song. Not a song social critic
Wrong interpretation. Paul Simon himself explained this song s meaning, it s about lonely people.
Огромное спасибо Вам за ваше творчество.. Мой дедушка еще в 60 годах слушал Вас, не смотря на все запреты в СССР.. Ваша музыка вне времени! Спасибо еще раз!
This is my favourite recorded version of this song. This is just perfection.
Have you listen the Disturbed one? Feels more polished, although not so original
There is no song as good as this that I know of. Something incredible happened when they wrote this.
Yep, you're right. There's never been a song in world history better than this one. #1 song ever. All other songs pale in comparison. I don't even listen to other crap. Just this on repeat. You too?
Got to listen to this with a headset on. The difference/combination of the two voices is awesome
wow so inspirational, thanks for commenting!
@@DreamRust stop
it's been so difficult to find the original version with only two voices and a guitar against the sound of silence. this is nice.
非常想念及感覺那些70、80年代的創作者與歌手帶給我們豐富多彩的樂音。不論是細緻的歌詞或者優揚的旋律再再讓人陶醉。還是喜歡最原始的最乾淨的版本。
但這是60年代的
?
不管多少年,這首歌還是反影生命和社會的無夸
When this song came over the radio in my youth EVERYONE stopped talking
to listen.
Ist bei heute noch so
Thats the way to do it...a beautiful song, two voices and a guitar. No bull, just stand up and put it out there. Magic.
I've heard so many covers of this song. Never heard the original or even knew that it was Simon & Garfunkel until now. But now I hear them doing it, and it makes more sense and has more meaning than it ever did before.
Can't getting no better days
Even though I'm only 19, I prefer this to the later overdub version, because here the vocals are Center stage, you can hear the detail and the harmonies, and you're able to understand the lyrics better, and understand the message they're conveying.
It doesn't get better than this. Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel together was pure magic and we will never hear anything like that again.
It is a good version.
Oh Hellllll!… I Love both versions. It shows versitality.
But then again!… Both versions are heavenly ,Because you have the best of both versions. Amen.

great comment
Yeah this is an awesome song isant it. Simon and Garfunkel played some damn good music
Back when songs were stories
Karl Pilkington approves.
It´s a beautiful poem... so many many thing to reflect about... the dark side of everyone. I love it.
"And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning

And the sign said, "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls"

Fucking amazing lyrics.

Genius lyrics- thank you- I’m 69 years old and was not a fan back then but sure appreciate them now and it just gets better
The rest of the story......
HELLO DARKNESS MY OLD FRIEND, a Simon and Garfunkel song inspired by a College roommate who went blind - this reveals untold story. Enjoy and then listen to the song itself. Enough said. IT is one of the best-loved songs of all time. Simon & Garfunkel's hit,
"The Sound Of Silence" topped the US charts and went platinum in the UK. It was named among the 20 most performed songs of the 20th century, included in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time, and provided the unforgettable soundtrack to 1967 film classic "The Graduate". But to one man The Sound Of Silence means much more than just a No 1 song on the radio with its poignant opening lines: "Hello Darkness my old friend, I've come to talk with you again. "Sanford "Sandy" Greenberg is Art Garfunkel's best friend, and reveals in a moving new memoir, named after that lyric, that the song was a touching tribute to their undying bond, and the singer's sacrifice that saved Sandy's life when he unexpectedly lost his sight. "He lifted me out of the grave," says Sandy, aged 79, who recounts his plunge into sudden blindness, and how Art Garfunkel's selfless devotion gave him reason to live again. Sandy and Arthur, as Art was then known, met during their first week as students at the prestigious Columbia University in New York. "A young man wearing an Argyle sweater and corduroy pants and blond hair with a crew cut came over and said, 'Hi, I'm Arthur Garfunkel', "Sandy recalls. They became roommates, bonding over a shared taste in books, poetry and music. "Every night Arthur and I would sing. He would play his guitar and I would be the DJ. The air was always filled with music." "Still teenagers, they made a pact to always be there for each other in times of trouble. "If one was in extremis, the other would come to his rescue," says Sandy. They had no idea their promise would be tested so soon.
Just months later, Sandy recalls: "I was at a baseball game and suddenly my eyes became cloudy and my vision became unhinged. Shortly after that darkness descended. "Doctors diagnosed conjunctivitis, assuring it would pass. But days later Sandy went blind, and doctors realized that glaucoma had destroyed his optic nerves.
Sandy was the son of a rag-and-bone man. His family, Jewish immigrants in Buffalo, New York, had no money to help him, so he dropped out of college, gave up his dream of becoming a lawyer, and plunged into depression. "I wouldn't see anyone, I just refused to talk to anybody," says Sandy. "And then unexpectedly Arthur flew in, saying he had to talk to me. He said, 'You're gonna come back, aren't you?' "I said,: 'No. There's no conceivable way.' "He was pretty insistent, and finally said, 'Look, I don't think you get it. I need you back there. That's the pact we made together: we would be there for the other in times of crises. I will help you'."
Together they returned to Columbia University, where Sandy became dependent on Garfunkel's support. Art would walk Sandy to class, bandage his wounds when he fell, and even filled out his graduate school applications.
Garfunkel called himself "Darkness" in a show of empathy. The singer explained: "I was saying, 'I want to be together where you are, in the black'. "Sandy recalls: "He would come in and say, 'Darkness is going to read to you now.' “Then he would take me to class and back. He would take me around the city. He altered his entire life so that it would accommodate me."
Garfunkel would talk about Sandy with his high-school friend Paul Simon, from Queens, New York, as the folk rock duo struggled to launch their musical careers, performing at local parties and clubs. Though Simon wrote the song, the lyrics to The Sound of Silence are infused with Garfunkel's compassion as Darkness, Sandy's old friend.
Guiding Sandy through New York one day, as they stood in the vast forecourt of bustling Grand Central Station, Garfunkel said that he had to leave for an assignment, abandoning his blind friend alone in the rush-hour crowd, terrified, stumbling and falling. "I cut my forehead" says Sandy. "I cut my shins. My socks were bloodied. I had my hands out and bumped into a woman's breasts. It was a horrendous feeling of shame and humiliation. "I started running forward, knocking over coffee cups and briefcases, and finally I got to the local train to Columbia University. It was the worst couple of hours in my life." Back on campus, he bumped into a man, who apologized. "I knew that it was Arthur's voice," says Sandy. "For a moment I was enraged, and then I understood what happened: that his colossally insightful, brilliant yet wildly risky strategy had worked." Garfunkel had not abandoned Sandy at the station, but had followed him the entire way home, watching over him. "Arthur knew it was only when I could prove to myself I could do it that I would have real independence," says Sandy. "And it worked, because after that I felt that I could do anything.
"That moment was the spark that caused me to live a completely different life, without fear, without doubt. For that I am tremendously grateful to my friend." Sandy not only graduated, but went on to study for a master's degree at Harvard and Oxford.
While in Britain he received a phone call from his friend - and with it the chance to keep his side of their pact. Garfunkel wanted to drop out of architecture school and record his first album with Paul Simon, but explained: "I need $400 to get started." Sandy, by then married to his high school sweetheart, says: "We had $404 in our current account. I said, 'Arthur, you will have your cheque.' "It was an instant reaction, because he had helped me restart my life, and his request was the first time that I had been able to live up to my half of our solemn covenant."
The 1964 album, Wednesday Morning, 3 AM, was a critical and commercial flop, but one of the tracks was The Sound Of Silence, which was released as a single the following year and went to No 1 across the world. "The Sound Of Silence meant a lot, because it started out with the words 'Hello darkness' and this was Darkness singing, the guy who read to me after I returned to Columbia blind," says Sandy.
Simon & Garfunkel went on to have four smash albums, with hits including Mrs Robinson, The Boxer, and Bridge Over Troubled Waters. Amazingly, Sandy went on to extraordinary success as an inventor, entrepreneur, investor, presidential adviser and philanthropist. The father of three, who launched a $3million prize to find a cure for blindness, has always refused to use a white cane or guide dog. "I don't want to be 'the blind guy'," he says. "I wanted to be Sandy Greenberg, the human being."
Six decades later the two men remain best friends, and Garfunkel credits Sandy with transforming his life. With Sandy, "my real life emerged," says the singer. "I became a better guy in my own eyes, and began to see who I was - somebody who gives to a friend. "I blush to find myself within his dimension. My friend is the gold standard of decency." Says Sandy: "I am the luckiest man in the world"
What a courageous, amazing, and wonderful friendship these two man. They make the world a better place.
Thank you so much for sharing this story .

For once youtube recommended this masterpiece❤
When he says "of slience"
The rhythm becomes 10x better
I love Simon & Garfunkel ...the best
One of the first songs that really had an emotional impact on me (without quite knowing why) as a confused and sometimes lonely teenager. 40 years on it still moves me!
Tis fucking poetry first and lyrics second, the man was and still is an absolute genius and then he puts it all to a beautiful melody. These kind of people are once in a lifetime and I for one am honoured to have been around to see him.
The greatest folk rock song ever !! Just love the split vocal harmony !! Just wished these talented guys stayed together !!
The sound of Simon and Garfunkel 😍 i love this song
(The sound of silence)
Thank you “Nether” for posting the poetic lyrics to this passionate and introspective song sung by the iconic Simon and Garfunkel! 🥰👍
Art Garfunkel says… “when meaningful communication fails, the only sound is silence”. Words still resonate.
This is a fantastic example of a song of a type I would never normally like, but it's just so well written, composed and performed that I can't help but absolutely love it.
This proves their voices were in such unison and sooo beautiful
Best music to play in silence and take a look to the stars up there
jetzt wichtiger denn je...
Simon und Garfunkel waren damals schon Krieger des Lichts. Dieser Song begleitete mich durch meine Jugend und somit auch durch mein Leben. Danke 🤍🙏🏼🕊️
中学生の時下校時間にこれが流れてすごくセンチメンタルな気分で帰った記憶が・・・耳に心地よさが残るのがとても好き
And when darkness is really your old friend, it really hits hard
Yes! God sometimes is all you have.
thank you for letting me seeeee these facts with new eyes and words again
A superbly crafted song, full of meaning, sung by two of the iconic voices of the 20th century.
Let's be honest, this wasn't on your recommended.
It was
Lol so true. Usually only upbeat, marketing stuff pops up on there. Here is for serious introspective.
This was in my heart
When I return home.. Ill get cremated and this will play as I am placed at Maunga Taranaki... To you it ant recommended, to be its the only recommendation...

Paul Simon!!! What an amazing song writer!!!
I just found out that Art wrote the first line of the song in reference to his blind friend whom he helped get out of a deep depression after losing his eyesight. Art called himself darkness and helped him finish school by helping him navigate through school. Art’s life revolved around helping his friend graduate school. Years later his friend repays him by funding Art and simons first album which “sound of silence” became their first #1 hit song.
I was always under the impression Paul Simon wrote this at 3AM on a Wednesday morning when it came to him in a dream and he couldn't sleep.
This is nonsense. If you allege otherwise link to source...

Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
No one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
"Fools" said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows

But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets

This song was my moms favourite. Today it was her funeral... Love you mom, will never forget you, that's my promise.
May your mom rest in peace.
So sorry to hear of her passing. Rest assured, she's at peace forever now. Take care and don't be afraid to grieve.❤

Una de las mejores canciones de la historia y está versión la mejor.
The Sound of Silence! What a gift! Thanks Paul and Art! Hear my words that I may teach you! The words of a prophet are written on the walls of a subway wall. I heard this song when I was young and loved it! it brought so much peace. Now that I can understand the lyrics it is even better!
Una de las mejores canciones que escuchado, sonido del silencio en toda su expresión 👍
I'm a simple man, i see Simon and Garfunkel, I press like

Well said.
ur not a simple man, ur a good and sensitive man
So easy to play on guitar
You are the people they're singing about..
2022 - dieses Lied ist nach 56 Jahren immer noch ein so gewaltig gutes Lied, welches einfach die Seelen der Menschen berührt; und ich denke das wird es auch noch in 100 Jahren. Vielen lieben Dank für ein so unbeschreiblich wertvolles und himmlisches Lied.
Sound of silence, dust in the wind, horse with no name, mad world❤️
I listen often to this song and it never ceases to amaze me at the depth and sincerity of the artists. Just beautiful.
Just close ur eyes n listen, it will take u places..
A masterpiece..
People are silent for many reasons, some have no choice......silence is a symphony in its own right.
All these years and it's still amazing
To me this is the best version!!!!!!
This song takes me to a time I remember yet I don't know. I've been listening to it for years and each time I close my eyes I'm gone, no worries, no depression just me and darkness my old friend.
This song reminds me of my mam and also my nana .. mams had a stroke recently 54YO .. kills me but also keeps me motivated.. thank you Simon and garfunkle
This song is perfect. Only acoustics and 2 voices ❤
How can people dare to thumbs down. Are these people heartless or just walking corpses 😂
Or are they in the sound of silence?
People who doesn't like the song ?
I'll say both
The probably like the other guy's version better.
They are the living dead.
That song will live forever.

This used to be my father’s favourite song… he would play it on his guitar. Whenever I listen to this song, I feel may be my father is around me… Papa, a never-ending feeling… ❤️ I miss you…
Music is something that is for everyone. We can all enjoy music...it is subjective...what we want to listen to at any given time.
Beautiful song...such a great sound.
Masterpiece ❤
Pure Class. Remeber listening to this when i was 8 years old. And still listen to it 60 Years Later
Poesia acústica e pura, maravilhosamente linda.
I absolutely adore this song.❤️❤️❤️

All jokes aside, this is actually a good song
This song can be interpreted in many ways, and I think that’s cool.
I have loved this song since it came out. I owned the original album for at least 30 years until it became so scratched I had to toss it. Wow! It’s going on 59 years.
I remember going to the Central Park Concert in 1981 with a half million other people. Dave
Valentine's Day 2021, who come here with me?
Chills. It’s like they’re whispering directly to me. Oh yeah, right I’m wearing earphones. But yes, Simon on the right Garfunkel on the left. Heavenly
Именно в таком исполнении услышал в начале 70-х, когда был студентом, и это было восхитительно!
С удовольствием слушаю до сих пор. Спасибо, S&G !!!
This song speaks to my soul ❤
