The songwriter who was “almost perfect” according to Paul Simon
The highest of praise.
Paul Simon
Paul Simon, the reluctant performer: “For me, it’s a secondary form of creativity”
“I’ve never really been comfortable…”
The greatest rock song Paul Simon ever heard is a 1955 classic
Setting the stage for rock’s takeover.
The one genre Paul Simon needed to stop writing: “We would have broken up”
Not what he wanted to be known for.
“The story would come through”: The 2000 song Paul Simon considered one of his greatest
The beloved deep cuts.
Why Paul Simon couldn’t stand listening to Art Garfunkel: “I didn’t like the songs”
Not doing the artist justice.
The 1970 song Paul Simon said he needed to disown: “Not as good a feeling”
No longer in his possession.
The 1966 song Paul Simon couldn’t stand performing: “Some of them feel old and dated”
Not holding up like it did back then.
