Sheer Brilliance!

What is it that makes the sum of two persons greater than their individual totals added together? There are many examples of this and Paul Simon & Art Garfunkel is just one such an instance.

What a loss for music it was then they parted, even though they both carved out very successful careers for themselves. And after all those years, when they performed together again, the old magic was back – immediately.applause As demonstrated by this song.

This is one of their lesser songs… No, no, no, they did not ever produce a lesser song. I don’t think. This is just another one of their songs. It is called April, comes she will. It describes six months in the life of a broken-hearted young man. sigh

I want to dedicate this song to everybody who has an achy breaky heart today. And to everybody else who enjoy great music!



The Lyrics
April, comes she will; when streams are rife and swelled with rain.
May, she will stay; resting in my arms again.
June, she’ll change her tune; in restless walks she’ll prowl the night.
July, she will fly; and give no warning to her flight.
August, die she must; the autumn winds blow chilly and cold.
September, I’ll remember; a love once new has now gone old.


If this does not stir you, you have a heart of stone!

Have a great day!

Thank you Catfoot. Well, this lady does not have a achin, breacky heart today.. I'm still the happy me who is in charge of her own life. But I do love this song, and I do love Simon & Garfunkel.
They have meant to much to me during my childhood, youth and now in my middle age. They have to of the worlds softest voices tuned perfectly together. I love them and I will alway love them. It is sad they are played so little on my radio station, but I do listen on You Tube.

This song I'm sending with my comments I did play on my fluite when I was a little girl. I did play it for me parakeet, and it love it. Enjoy.

Hi Wel,

This is another example of their brilliance. To me the most amazing thing about them is that you can play a CD by them and enjoy every sing track. I am yet to hear something by them that I don't like.

Enjoy your day.

Me too, I love all they have done together. They are brilliant, no one can do this again, because of their harmonious voices.

Thank you, my day will be a good one, into the forest for a walk and spend time with friends. Hope you have a wonderful day too.hug teddybear bouquet

Aisha,

This is one of their lesser songs. They are being played on the radio quite often. You have heard many of their songs not realising!

I have 31 of their titles together and individual and it is not a complete collection.

Enjoy the day.

Hi Mike,

I never was a big Elvis fan, but he did record few good songs in his own right. This is an exceptionally well performed cover.

Hi Gladoluss,

Indeed, but for some reason the could not get on with each other; and the were joulous of each other. Sad. I think there might have been another reason too, but I wont say it in public!

Hi Bajanshay,

A newie for you, but an oldie for me. Late sixties.

Funny, in 1970, when I turned 18 my father bought me a car; with an eight track tape player and I had a tape featuring this song. Those days the girls said I've got an eight track tape and a one track mind!

Hi Cat,Great music!...I was first turned on to their music many many years ago after seeing the film Mrs Robinson (Dustin Hoffman) which featured a lot of their early hits.
My favourite has always been.. The Sound of Silence.
Have a good day! guitar dancing
Sorry the name of the film was.. The Graduate..doh grin
A very good day to you Ummka,

Yes, What music and what lyrics!

I wish words like that could flow from my pen.

Aye Raven,

A gret movie, I heard. Did not see it though. And another great song is Mrs Robinson. Together with Blessed they constitude two of the most under-rated gospels songs. Years ahead of their time.
