He was my gay thing
Yeah, well, smooth is just about all I got.
EDIT: FOUND
I remember a wonderful interview where Artie said something among the lines of "if you listen to his guitar playing, you'll get what a great lover Paul Simon is - not that I would know of course, but I mean...", stuff like that.
So.
Yeah.
I'll look for it. It was from a BBC Radio 6 Music series named The Paul Simon Songbook, covering the history of well, Paul's music. I had the transcripts of these from gods know where, probably Artie's website old forum? Anyway, episode So Young, Yet So Full of Pain (gotta love it) is about their 60s pre-BOTW works, and at a certain point they focus on For Emily. Well, Artie's quote for y'all to enjoy: "The first thing I think about with that song is what a great lover Paul Simon is. I mean... I've never been in bed with him, I don't know (audibly smirking), but I assume he's a very caressing lover, because if you listen to him play the twelve-string underneath my voice, that carriage, that ride he's providing for the vocalist, is very intimate and very beautiful. He's so underneath my vocal, and swelling just where the vocal is swelling, and clearly the frienship is a really close one, you can hear so much on there... at this point we're friends since 13 years old, that's a close friend! So it shows up in the music that we're reading each other's next musical intention, even though it's a hundredth of a second away, we know based on what's happening in the present what the immediate next future is gonna go to. That's just musicians... being very together."
Linda Eastman Simon and Garfunkel, New York City 1966
“I write from instinct, from inexplicable sparkle. I don’t know why I’m writing what I’m writing. Usually, I sit and I let my hands wander on my guitar. And I sing anything. I play anything. And I wait till I come across a pleasing accident. Then I start to develop it.” Paul Simon, 1984
“[T]he loving, caressing guitar work that Paul Simon does on a Martin acoustic guitar, just kills me and makes me sing lovely. I ride that guitar like a jockey on a horse that is having a fabulous little spring.” Art Garfunkel
Reblogged already?

Oh please! I do care @breakaway1975! I love Artie's early songs! What's not to love about them? And if anyone could post the lyrics to this I'll be forever grateful! As a non native English speaker I still have trouble understanding some parts of it after I don't know, two decades of listening? Yes, an old friend of mine had this on a bootleg. Anyway, I get most of its lyrics, but not everything, so... pretty please...

Funny thing is, poem 72 is actually from Still Water, his book of prose poems published in 1989.
Uncle Artie has been out there for a bit longer than 2017.
He's been inspiring older generations of fans for decades, and I love that he still inspires younger folks.

Love affair, calling paul “damn good” and referring to himself as a midwife to deliver Paul’s song babies is just a coming out confession in its self
