Thanks girl one of my favs
Great song, thanks for the post. We DO agree on something, that's nice to see. Simon & Garfunkel are one of my favorite music acts all-time. Bridge Over Troubled Water is one of my favorite albums/cds in any genre. The songs "Bridge Over Troubled Water" and "The Only Living Boy In New York" from that album are my favorites from that album and by them. Simply beautiful songs, they give me chills every time I listen to them.

They were part of my growing up...you know, I still have the vinyl albums.
Are there any such poets in songwriting still?

Oh God I so agree...I too get chills...it's poetry set to music! Glad I'm not the only one

And "The Only Living Boy In New York" REALLY gets to me sometimes. The choir-like backing is just gorgeous and does bring me to tears at times. I read about the making of the song, it was just Paul and Art that did the vocals. They overlaid their vocals and recorded them in a big, empty room to get the sound of a choir. Just incredibly beautiful.

Listening to Townes Van Zandt
BY CHRISTINE GOSNAY
We are of one mind
and too much has not been said
about all the quiet afternoons
childhood offered us,
lit gray like a cat, or blue,
and cursed with an early moon.
When father wore an apron
or crept like a bear, we screamed.
Nothing is so gone.
Where is his record player
or the channel that forked
a distant year toward us,
kind, slow magnet?
There was a song we shared
without your listening,
you widowed soul crawling away on your elbows.
I sing it to my child, with a full hand I
flick its rapeseeds everywhere,
clear, and slow,
with all the sincerity its author indeed felt
in his ten-gallon hat
and his thin, whisky-soaked shirt

I know one fine rock and roll poet is still recording, Bruce Springsteen. I haven't heard his recent stuff, it has gotten good reviews.
