The Official Simon and Garfunkel Thread (lyrics, soundtrack, singer, favorite song)

One of the most prolific song smiths that have ever been. Their massive hits are unquestioned in their greatness, but I think even they "deep tracks" are something to write home about. The song "A simple desultry phillipic" offers me something new every time I listen to it. I think Simon is one of the better writers of all time (though his solo stuff was a tad too avant garde for me). To me, their certainly in the top 5 song writers of all time. If they ever assmble "the great american songbook" then they should have at least 3 songs in there.

Your turn.
