Ep 53 - The Sound(s) of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel and Disturbed
Epic. It's a word that gets repeated like a group dance number in a TikTok video. At one time, it actually meant something. And it aptly applies to one song, sung by 3 people in total. 2 folk singers and one metalhead. All deserving of the word epic. I've read comments about this song, asking that it be played at one's own funeral, and if it wasn't going to be played, that person will be a no show. That my friends, is the type of song this is. Epic. Paul Simon wrote, and sang it. Art Garfunkel accompanied him, and many years later the band Disturbed may have very well perfected it. This song may be responsible for many people falling in love with music, and it has the same power today. Epic. And how lucky are YOU that you get to listen to both versions. Turn it up just loud enough and maybe, just maybe, you might actually hear The Sound of Silence.
