I completely agree. I love this song so much and always have. One of those that sounds great no matter what kind of mood I'm in and can never skip. Always gives me chills/goosebumps too.
Indeed... I believe that everyone has had a simon and garfunkel period in their life... well not everybody, but almost. Wonderful song... A couple of moths back I jamed Elvis version of the same song.. In my book it's a draw between the two versions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLbOBoa8vD8
That Tom Wilson has not been inducted into the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame yet just shows what a crooked organisation that is...

If you ain't moved by that, I can't imagine what would do it. Extraordinarily beautiful song. Great pick, Chrissy...
