They were incredible. Their songs were sooo good. The lyrics are great because they paint a picture. Sort of like The Rolling Stones' Honkey Tonk blues(I met a gin soaked bar room queen in Memphis) I used this comparison only for the "picture" or scene the song presents. If only we could have great lyrics like that now.....Miss it.....

I like just about every song on the Live at Central Park album. And yes The Boxer is probably my fav. Very inspiring! And i gotta agree with Gracie. The harmonies are great.

Yes, I love that song, Paul Simon is great. His songs are so calm and mellow, thats why I love that song, and many more. My daughter knew all the words to one of his songs when she was 2!! They don't make music like that anymore, and it's a shame.

Great song - they have some of the best all time music - Watch the movie "The Graduate" where that song as well as others became popular!

I think those are their 2 best songs, also Bridge Over Troubled Water. They had a good chemistry together.

Compared to a poet like Paul Simon, most songwriters remind me of dogs -- all they do is bark, whine, snarl, sniff booty, and sh*t where they live.
