Art Garfunkel has the voice of an angel.

Paul and Art were able to make me happy to be sad. Or something.

I had quite a full-on adoring relationship going when this song came out...and used to fantasize to it. the object of my affection met me in my dreams, in the rain, in front of a cathedral somewhere ...except it was a pee coat and a scarf of smoking burgundy, not krenolin and organdy. you get my drift...

I saw a video of the Red Hot Chili Peppers covering this song between a raucous "Californication" and "Give It Away". One of the most surprising live numbers I've ever seen.

Somehow, the gentleness and quiet beauty of this song underscores the violence of the elements out of our control, and it's just magical. Nope - not gonna close my window - I want that rain and wind to come through and give us all a good dousing. I want that thunder to ripple across the sky and drown out my music. Dang - for the first time in a couple of weeks, I'm happy to be alive.  Enjoyed your post.  |

I think it depends on how love-sick you are when you write/listen to it.  |

Art's voice is pretty awesome for a live performance. The guitar is beautiful, too.

Hearing this song makes me want to believe that there is still a shred of hope to cling to in this lifetime...the sound is incomparable...the feeling, sublime.
