Apr 18, 2011 - oh, simon and garfunkel absolutely explored every crevice of emotion and expression. i dont remember, seeing that my comment is a year old, but the reference to "love" is mentioned because the meaning behind this song is expression of love. hopefully you didnt miss that.the difference between S&G's "hate and depression" and the modern interpretations is the fact that S&G's is well based and founded. compare their A Most Peculiar Man to Lil Wayne's I Feel Like Dying

Apr 19, 2011 - haha yes, you are right i do suppose, sorry for harping on you like that. and i am glad to know that you know a good share of facts, i assume. i guess the comment itself was vague. and we could probably go back ad forth about the music world for days. haha. but yeah cool stuff though. too bad the mainstream of today is soo fake and is corrupting the lives of the generation that follows, and i just so happen to be a couple steps ahead than the others at my HS. Thank Goodness

We dug this soft and lovely but also rocked to Hendrix and Sly. They were great times and horrible times and I truly became a fan of S&G in Nam. If I had known I'd live this long, I'd have taken more drugs.

May 3, 2011 - - ya, and what does that say for us? Was that love and peace we sang about, not real enough? Isn't that what we thought of our parents? For me, these songs remain iconic not only for the impressionable melodies, but for the poetry inside of them.

Catlovertea4 Says:

May 3, 2011 - - I'm hearing the "expression of love" as being the song itself exposing a snapshot about the tyranny of homelessness. I could be wrong, but that's what I hear.

Jul 1, 2011 - Yes and the people who now run the world and made it what it is are those people who focused on love. That generation from the 60s were the genertion in charge during the 80s and 90s. they gave us right wing governments and selfish people. How did that happen?

Jul 18, 2011 - somehow, Simon and Garfunkel's music, though largely acoustic and "soft", is heavy, both in harmony and lyrics. its beautiful.

Jul 21, 2011 - FUCK was the poem

MASAI97 Says:

Aug 2, 2011 - Well, I'd say it just focuses on money. Hate and depression songs started much earlier. I Am A Rock is a pretty depressful song

EmilyBethBergmann Says:

Sep 20, 2011 - I love Paul's tapping on the guitar at the end of the song.

Sep 21, 2011 - This is poetry, it's honestly art.

MichaelMNewland Says:

Sep 22, 2011 - You are awesome.

mymytheysigh Says:

Nov 22, 2011 - When Art sits on the stool, he and Paul are the same height. Was that deliberate?

evilthesaurus Says:

Jan 1, 2012 - raises the hair on my arms

Forestgirl925 Says:

Jan 25, 2012 - OK, Art have an amazing voice, and an extraordinary music talent. I can understand that. But how can Paul sing the two-part song without any mistake, while playing that amazing guitar, and still have time to give a "sexy look" to the camera, that remains the great mistery to me.

Guichotpresident Says:

Feb 14, 2012 - I Am A Rock was quite depressing... But what an amazing song that was...

taylornatee Says:

Feb 16, 2012 - lucky it was filmed then ayy! lol

joetubealong Says:

Mar 15, 2012 - Ive never heard that song before and I thought I had heard every one of their songs.

MASAI97 Says:

Mar 20, 2012 - No now it's about money and sex

winterlongone Says:

May 15, 2012 - over the years, this song has become a favorite of mine. it is great to see an early live performance.

rosybirdstar Says:

May 16, 2012 - I'm 13, and basically shunned because I listen to Paul Simon. this universe is whacked up.
