...yeah, I remember when that first came out...actually kinda like that version and the video too. "People talking without speaking People hearing without listening People writing songs that voices never share No one dare Disturb the sound of silence"
outstanding tune- still listen alot to S&G, and Simon's solo works, a genius he is- I've often wondered if Paul (in his young years); had read 'Plato's Republic': "Allegory of the Cave"...? “The words of the prophets Are written on subway walls And tenement halls And whispered in the sounds of silence” compare to: "Between the iron gates of fate The seeds of time were sown And watered by the deeds of those Who know and who are known. Knowledge is a deadly friend If no one sets the rules. The fate of all mankind I see Is in the hands of fools". "The wall on which the prophets wrote Is cracking at the seams. Upon the instruments of death The sunlight brightly gleams. When every man is torn apart With nightmares and with dreams, Will no one lay the laurel wreath When silence drowns the screams". either way one slices and dices it, IMO, this IS the era of American Decadence....
fwiw, I'll check out the box score, but tonight's game is one that I will refuse to actually watch...fuck ARod.
now I admire your tenacity, fk it, I'm doing the same, my own private bronx zoo is the kids playing a sandlot game across the highway, think I'll join in..... Au Revoir.... take those 8's off those jersey's and FK A-Roid, good fkng riddance.....damn why didn't the boys fit check him for those cement boots last year, when they we're supposed too??
>My father disliked him immensely. His opinion centered on the $ sign associated with ARod. His legacy was never recognized by my dad who passed in 012 @93. For him,it was a simple comparison to all the great Yankees he admired before. He liked the great 40's, 50's and 60's teams and surely had many players who wanted the game rather than a fat paycheck every game. $$$$$$$$$
