Right now I'm asking myself "Is there anyone who doesn't like Simon and Garfunkel?" And my head answers "Of course there is silly! This is a music forum! There's always at least one detractor!" :lmao: In all seriousness though, Simon and Garfunkel are the duo who are mellow enough and safe enough to be sung in your high school chorus class and be accepted by your grandmother and at the same time be in a hard rock fans collection without much irony. These guys harmonized together better than any other duo in rock history. Even with a rocky relationship these guys were cohesive enough to write some classic songs that have become staples in the fabric of American musical culture.

I'm more familiar and a fan of the staples than their rarities so I'll contribute three that I love:

Sounds of Silence


Mrs. Robinson


Hazy Shade of Winter

Re: Simon and Garfunkel



As the description says, this is the happiest song I've heard, and it's my favourite from them :D You'd have to be cold and heartless if it doesn't make you smile :)

I love these guys, I have four of their CD's, and a greatest hits compilation as well.

And Soot finally discovers the 60's section...:bounce:
