paul simon always saying some rude shit in interviews like we actually do hate each other and we never got along and the music we made together was shitty and lame and i did all the work. and everything art says is like we love eachother so much forever and no one cares enough to understand our beautiful romance they just want to spread rumors and we never really broke up we were just apart and no one understands and Yes im a gay man
Paul Simon in the 1960s wearing sunglasses
Bonus: Artie wearing them (headcanon: he stole them from Paul)

White night 🍇
SO much is happening here:
Mystery man Stan Rublowsky, who is never mentioned again
Art getting cornered by the press while changing and then being stuck with them for half of the article
Paul once again mentioning that one time he tried LSD (but leaving out the part where he started hallucinating bugs in the shower)
“Normal looking, except for their hair”
“Rublowsky mentioned that he doubted that Simon owns a suit”
“Carrying the 12-string that he never plays”
“Garfunkel swung his hands around him like an airplane”
Art opening a show with “we’re not much in person”

I would like the to add the way Paul speaks about Art in the second part of In restless dreams too. Specifically the bit where he talks about working with Art on Hearts and Bones (before his part got scrapped). Paul just seems so hurt about his relationship with Art and this is probably how he copes with it?
"We do not refer to Beatles songs as early Paul McCartney songs or early George Harrison songs. They are Beatles songs. (...) Rolling Stones songs are not referred to as Jagger's or Richards’s songs. Ray Davies wrote most of the Kinks’ songs but we do not call them early Ray Davies songs. The songs of Simon & Garfunkel were a collaborative effort, and are distinctly different from Paul Simon’s successful solo career. The works of Simon & Garfunkel have won many awards in the name of Simon & Garfunkel. They are in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in the name of Simon & Garfunkel." "Art Garfunkel was Paul Simon’s missing ingredient. Without him you’ve got smoke but not the explosion that was Simon & Garfunkel."
Thanks fuck somebody said this. Bravo.
