This Never Gets Old, Does It?

This never gets old, does it?

Love ruled our lives.

Girl had it bad.

When I said: "You'll outlast me, you live more carefully." He said: "Write out what you want to." Ok, it's hard to say I knew him well, He was enigmatic to himself. Which of us was more aware? Which the elder? I was born November fifth. He on October 13th - a few weeks premature, you following me? He was born three weeks before me, my dear, But he was a premature baby. Were we both conceived at the same instant? February 5th 1941, the dead middle of winter, In the heart of World War Two Was I born at the right time? For 70 years his arm has been around my shoulder, He's dazzled me with gifts. I nurtured him in his youth. He brought me into prominence. I taught him to sing. He connected my voice to the world. I made him tall. All of our personal belongings are intertwined. We say it's exhausting to compete, But we shine for each other. It's still our favourite game. It goes on, this embrace, whether I speak for him or he for me: Love ruled our lives. It rules the mourners, And the winner of longevity.

Art Garfunkel's Poem performed at Paul Simon's 70th Birthday Party, 2011

Asked what Simon's reaction was, he admitted: "I don't know - he was at the other side of the room. I dared not look."

Why wouldn't the Lord love me

even as I am transfixed by his ass?

Ask me to tie his shoe now as a game-

and give all my love in a swoon of shame.

Am I the only one thinking he didn't just stare at the cute French soldier but got down to business with him?

GAY ASS POEM😭😭😭😭🫵🫵🫵🫵

This applies so much to me with S&G, it hurts

Being a classic rock fan is so funny. Why am I invested in the neuroses of some guy from half a century ago

Ok, maybe some of you can help me here.

I understand John's joke "are you guys getting back together again?" because obviously they always got asked that and stuff.

But I've never understood Paul's reaction, "are YOU guys getting back together again?" while pointing at John and Artie. What on earth does he mean?

shoutout to that time paul simon and john lennon hosted the grammys

Yup.

Apparently Paul wasn't too fond of Mrs Roosevelt either and it was Artie that brought it up during a meeting with Mike Nichols. They decided to change it to Mrs Robinson, using it in the movie with just the few lyrics existing at the time, the strumming and the harmonies and lemme tell you, for me it was smashing in that scene. Smashing.

Then came the other lyrics and oh my gods I love Mrs Robinson I love all its versions I can't I'll stop

remember when paul simon said no to doing the midnight cowboy soundtrack

I feel this 🔥

Me, first approaching the gods: “Hi, I have a fountain of issues that will constantly make things difficult, I’ve got this 50 cent candle and my undying love for you. 👉🏻👈🏻🥺”

The gods: “Hell yeah.”
