    Wonderful song from a great album – I always wondered how many Nikon cameras were sold because of Paul Simon

      My Dear Hedley,
      This was the album when I completely stopped missing Garfunkel.

    I really love this song because of this: This song is notable for being based on a melody line from Johann Sebastian Bach’s chorale from “St. Matthew Passion,” itself a reworking of an earlier secular song, “Mein Gmüth ist mir verwirret,” composed by Hans Hassler.

      sblake,
      He looks so darn young, and he keenly reminds me of the years and how they have passed while I wasn’t paying enough attention.

      This is beautiful.
