"We Do Not Refer To Beatles Songs As Early Paul McCartney Songs Or Early George Harrison Songs. They

"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.

Ah yes, I'm sure Artie would have contributed more to songwriting (and spent less time ill/exhausted) if he wasn't studying in the meantime.

Don't believe me? Listen to his album Everything Waits to Be Noticed, he co-wrote many of the songs and they're beautiful. Just think what he and Paul could've created if only he had more time/trusted more in his songwriting abilities.

dear god we need to rethink simon and garfunkels entire career. he was literally in grad school

Well well well, glad I'm not the only one fascinated by the Paul (Verlaine)/Arthur (Rimbaud) thingy.
