Paul Simon and George Harrison - Homeward Bound

[BeeHive]

---
Paul Simon Takes SNL By Storm With Unforgettable George Harrison Duet, “Homeward Bound”

Believe us when we say that it’s one of the finest performances in the history of the show – the way George delivers that emotional second verse to ‘Homeward Bound’ is unbelievable! A song that was written about longing for home when you’re far away, and despite living your dreams being tempted to give it all away if it means going home – who better to understand that sentiment than a member of the biggest rock band on the planet, George Harrison?

Simon and Garfunkel’s 1966 hit



Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never shared
No one dared
Disturb the sound of silence

"Fools," said I, "you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls
And whispered in the sound of silence"

J'allais écrire je connais Simon & Garfunkel, mais pas Simon & Harisson, je ne savais pas qu'ils avaient chanté ensemble.

Ma chanson préféré est "The bridge over troubled water", elle a bercé toutes mes années lycée(elle me rend très nostalgique...), même si c'était des hits d'une autre génération mais j'aimais beaucoup tout comme les Beatles d'ailleurs.

Il y avait aussi El Condor Pasa

Grand moment de nostalgie, j'allais justement l'écouter parce que le topic de Nassim me l'a rappelée
Merci, ça fait plaisir
