[AMC-list] Paul and Art

["Thomas, Jeff" <jeff.thomas@xxxxxxxx>]

I knew who Paul Rhymin' Simon was ... just messing with you. Still love Kathy's Song.

Art G has probably the most beautiful male voice in history (my opinion). 

They were/ are great. The songs that are never played on the radio are some of the best. 

Great acoustic guitar player too.

>From Wikipedia:

The chorus of the song is wordless, consisting of a repeated chant of "lie-la-lie". Simon stated that this was originally intended only as a placeholder, but became part of the finished song.

"I didn't have any words! Then people said it was 'lie' but I didn't really mean that. That it was a lie. But, it's not a failure of songwriting, because people like that and they put enough meaning into it, and the rest of the song has enough power and emotion, I guess, to make it go, so it's all right. But for me, every time I sing that part... [softly], I'm a little embarrassed."

AMC content:  Paul Simon is not known to ever have owned an AMC.

That would be correct, I find it somewhat comical that those lines were all he could come up with!!!

Love the "who is Paul Simon"? Simon and Garfunkel. If you listen to the lyrics their songs tend to be kind of depressing for the most part. But still good music IMHO

Let's see if I found out what was causing Comcast to trash my formatting?

I'm showing my age here...

I'm guessing that's a reference to the 1968 song "The Boxer" by Paul Simon, as in Simon and Garfunkel (please don't ask who that is! :^)

Partial lyrics:

When I left my home and my family, I was no more than a boy In the company of strangers.....
In the quiet of the railway station, runnin' scared Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters, where the ragged people go Looking for the places only they would know

(Li la li... li la la la li la li)
(Li la li... li la la la li la li)
(La la la la li...)

Seeking only workman's wages, I come looking for a job, but I get no offers.....
Just a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue I do declare, there were times when I was so lonesome I took some comfort there (li la la, la, la la)

Dan

Paul Simon was a boxer ? or better yet, Who is Paul Simon ?

The Secretary of Education in my state was told recently that Florida was ranked 48th in educational proficiency. He then asked "Out of how many ?"
