Amazing!

The shock wave thumbnail looks the side profile of Art Garfunkel.

Credit should go to Simon AND Garfunkle, shouldn't it?
I think it's important distinction. Paul Simon played very different music solo than in his S&G days.


From the wiki:

"I Am a Rock" is a song written by Paul Simon. It was first performed by Simon alone as the opening track on his album The Paul Simon Songbook which he originally recorded and released in August 1965, only in the United Kingdom. Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel, as the American pop/folk duo Simon and Garfunkel, re-recorded it on December 14, 1965, and included as the final track on their album Sounds of Silence, which they released on January 17, 1966.

Is that Art Garfunkel?

I was thinking Sideshow Bob.
A bit of Phil Specter as well.


It's William Fichtner doing Art Garfunkel.

I absolutely love this song and I had the wonderful opportunity to hear on vinyl over the holidays.

This is possibly the best-known Peruvian song worldwide, partly due to a cover version by Simon and Garfunkel in 1970 on their Bridge over Troubled Water album, which is called "El Condor Pasa (If I Could)" in full. Paul Simon used only the melody and wrote entirely new, unrelated lyrics.

Simon and Garfunkel are an American popular music duo comprising Paul Simon and Arthur "Art" Garfunkel. They met in grade school in 1953, when they both appeared in the school play of Alice in Wonderland (Simon as the White Rabbit, Garfunkel as The Cheshire Cat). They are well known for their close harmonies and sometimes unstable relationship.

The lyrics:
I'd rather be a sparrow than a snail.
Yes I would.
If I could,
I surely would.

I'd rather be a hammer than a nail.
Yes I would.
If I only could,
I surely would.

Away, I'd rather sail away
Like a swan that's here and gone
A man gets tied up to the ground
He gives the world
Its saddest sound,
Its saddest sound.

I'd rather be a forest than a street.
Yes I would.
If I could,
I surely would.

I'd rather feel the earth beneath my feet,
Yes I would.
If I only could,
I surely would.

Cute, but not original. The Man Show did this stunt a few years back on Comedy Central, sitting outside a booth in LA. Jimmy Kimmel was funnier than this Art Garfunkel imposter.
