You are a man of culture. Disturbed took a song and made it sound "epic" and all the kids went "wowowow" until they are lucky enough to discover the real deal - the real core and narration of this song. Kids go "why the big audience to hear a cover" - from a TV recording of the Concert in the Park in 1982 in front of a crowd of half a million people - long before Disturbed was even a fantasy in their daddies imagination while growing up in their childhood room. I imagine dudes going up to Paul Simon saying "Wow - you play this song of Disturbed pretty well, old troubadour". Probably after they tell salute Bob Dyland for a cover of "all along the watchtower".

This was from a free concert in Central Park in 1981 in front of 500,000 people (yes 500,000 people). Simon wrote the song in the 60's and this is one of the best and well known songs in the S&G catalogue. They were the greatest folk rock group in the 60s, and while Disturbed's cover was a masterpiece, you gotta acknowledge the boys who originated it.

I think I've heard him say it's different things over the years, interviews being decades apart... I wonder that it started out as one concrete thing but maybe over time the metaphor became more flexible for him or came to represent multiple things. Poetry and all that fancy talk. Or it could be like Carly Simon claiming she doesn't remember who the inspiration was for "You're So Vain," so he just makes things up as he goes? I guess he IS Paul Simon, so he can totally get away with it :)

The 'neon god' that they're 'bowing' to is television. This song is about when television first came out and people stopped talking to just stare at the idiot box, transfixed. That's 'The sound of silence'. This song always makes me feel pretty sad, and tbh, the message today is just the same: our iphones are our 'neon god' now - often we'll sit there staring at them rather then talking to the people around us.

@bkswanson2461 3 жыл бұрын

Neon God "The "" is obviously the sign pictured earlier in the song. ... Garfunkel once summed up the song's as "the inability of people to communicate with each other, not particularly internationally but especially emotionally, so what you see around you are people unable to love each other."

The point is that the silence is a BAD thing. People not speaking out when they should. Not really talking and listening to each other. Following false prophets, etc. "Silence like a cancer grows" because it spreads until society has lost its humanity and compassion for one another, and therefore brings about its own downfall. This song is really really deep. S&G sing it as a subtle warning. When David Draiman of Disturbed sang it, he was singing with anger and rage that this has already happened.

Paul Simon is exceptional. Check out the official video for “You Can Call Me Al” with Chevy Chase. He just clowns around while Paul dishes up some of the best lyrics and solos around. Dude plays every instrument you can imagine.

50 Ways to Leave Your Lover and Late in the Evening

@jimmynelson9376 3 жыл бұрын

Simon and Garfunkle was my favorite duet when i was a teen. I didn't here them til the 90's but it was an eye opener. And, somehow that turned me on to John Denver. There weren't any touch screen or even fliptop phones in my house. I had never heard of either one if they existed. I must have heard it on the radio. I bought a cassette for my janky little boombox and the peace was injected into my soul. I still love them today.

Simon & Garfunkel were together in the late 50's. They had a good run in the 60's & were together almost 15 years before they went on to solo careers. Over the years they have had many reunions.

That entire concert is so great,coming back after all those years. They have a back catalogue that could rival anyone’s. America (makes me cry every time I hear it even though’m Canadian), Homeward Bound, Mrs. Robinson, Only Living Boy in New York and so many other brilliant songs. ⚡️

The coat is poppin' and it's you! January 17th 1966 was when Simon and Garfunkel recorded Sounds of Silence. Disturbed did not do its cover until December 7th 2015 almost 50 years later.

When the crowd screamed at "10,000 people maybe more". They were ONLY off by about 490,9000 or so. This concert was to aid in helping the City make sure Central Park could be restored to it's glory. The Reunion of the two men, who hadn't performed together in nearly a decade brought an amazing crowd

You look fine, don't be silly. This song really gets to me. Kodachrome is a great song too. It's about seeing. This song is about hearing. Not just listening, but actually hearing and understanding.

That jacket looks to be beaded buckskin, and if so that's a rare & precious work of art you're rocking the hell out of. A stunning gift! Also yes, MORE Simon & Garfunkle! Me & Julio, Bridge Over Troubled Waters... there's another I adore & can't think of it right now. There's a BUNCH!!!

Thank you for this reaction, I'm still teary eyed. That line about "the words of the prophets are written on the subway wall's" strikes me in my soul. Moment of silence for 2 of the best singer-songwriters of the 20th century.✌💜🎶

I love the jacket.. Simon and Garfunkle are a Classic. Watch the "Concert in the Park". This is from that concert. Simon and Garfunkle did a free for all concert in Central Park in 1981. A most beautiful concert, I remember watching it on T.V as a kid here in South Africa. We still taped it on a video recorder. The '80's was a special era. Disturbed did a brilliant cover of this song. I love both.

Paul Simon was definitely cool. The guy was married to Princess Leia for 2 years. I was a teenager back then and I was a little jealous that he married Carrie Fisher. They dated for years and remained friends even after they split.

Simon and Garfunkel are the originators of the song. It was written by Paul Simon, the shorter guy playing the guitar, and first released back in 1965. Disturbed was the cover.
