The Paul Simon Song Book, 1965, With A Short Story By Paul Simon

So today I learned that there is a Professor Layton anime.

In the Professor Layton anime, these characters exist.

Their names are Simon and Garfunkel.

They are brothers.

Do with this information what you will.

Reading Art’s poetry can be strangest experience ever I stg

Imagine hearing him read the infamous “lover of asses” line. Or the masturbation one. For my own wellbeing I think I will pass on this

Random post I guess, but just so you know, if you have an Audible subscription you can buy Artie’s autobiography read by him

“Before there was Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, there was Simon and Garfunkel — an extraordinary, a singular love affair. There is no gay component in the two of us that I am aware of, but the way these two lives wrapped around each other is poetically stunning. From age eleven to today, a span of sixty-four years, Art and Paul have been at work to entertain, win the respect of, and dazzle one another. It worked so well that the whole world pulled up chairs to watch and listen.”

— Art Garfunkel, What is it All But Luminous: Notes from an Underground Man

The way he speaks about him oh my

““Please don’t leave out the word love. I loved this guy Paul Simon, and I loved him when I was 13 when I met him. This love permeates the recording session…You got the love in from Paul and Artie? You got that in? It’s a very deep, entwined friendship. It bewitches me. That’s a key point. It doesn’t sell well, though. It’s not negative, it’s not dirty and you’re not going to sell many papers. It doesn’t take the low road.””

— - Art Garfunkel

Art: I remember that period as an inevitable splitting up of the two of us that was an expression of what felt right at the time.

Paul: It’s strange to be partners, you know, especially you get to be forty - in your forties, you know - and you’re partners, you know. ‘Well, Paul, you think that? Well how does Artie feel about it?’ I mean, like, well, what difference does it make?
