The Sound of Silence

[potoba]

yeah, great song! and i personally think the sound of silence >> Bridge over Troubled Water

 

[lupi]

Some of the best stuff from an era when the music was about the song.

Most of the crap we have today if you took away the music and just had them sing they'd be hard pressed to sell albums to their families.

It is that great of a song, and I'm sorry your musical education was lacking.

Sometimes I wish some bands would get over their petty differences and arguments.
The world lost alot of good music because of over-inflated egos and petty squabbling.
S&G and Pink Floyd immediately come to mind.

I dunno, Garfunkle always seemed a little weird to me. Kinda like Carrot Top on Valium. :Q

to you and Red Dawn: it's Garfunkel. and sound of silence isn't really a great song.

'sounds of silence' is the name of the album... 'the sound of silence' is the name of the song.

by the way, it's an amazing song...

yeah really, asshole. from your own link:

It was originally recorded as an acoustic piece for their first album Wednesday Morning, 3 A.M. but was later electronically overdubbed and released as a single.

keep digging yourself in deeper, lol.

Had to piggyback on this because more and more people are expressing their opinion on something as fact more and more often and it's getting ridiculous. Doesn't matter how many people might agree with you or how popular your opinion might be, calling a song great is an opinion. I love bands like Yes, Van Halen, and Genesis to name a few and consider a couple of their works to be some of the greatest songs ever made but no way would I express that thought as anything more then my opinion and wouldn't put down anybody who disagreed with me (I would, however, try to build a case for why I think what I do if someone adamantly spoke against it)

So basically, yes it may be a timeless piece of music by some great performers, but you can't declare it to be a great song across the board and proclaim anyone who dislikes as lacking musical education. Same with The Beatles, sure they're a great band with some classic, genre-defining music, but I know plenty of people who really don't find beauty or interest in their songs, I disagree with them but understand why they don't and never make a big deal about what they each do feel is great music.

i'm uneducated because i didn't get some obscure rush reference in a thread about 'the sound of silence'?
