SIMON AND GARFUNKEL

Time it was, and what a time it was, it was  A time of innocence, a time of confidences  Long ago, it must be, I have a photograph  Preserve your memories, they're all that's left you.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr.- Simple Girl

I was flipping channels the other night, and got sucked in to their performance on Conan. I had seen their name around the internet but had never actually listened to anything by them. Their harmonies are amazing, and have a sort of Simon and Garfunkel vibe. Like maybe if they were born 40 years later they would have written this song.

The lyrics are excellent too, poignant, and just vague enough that it could be about anyone, but specific enough that at the same time you know it was written about a certain simple girl.

This song also led me on an excellent internet wormhole, from Simon and Garfunkel's Wikipedia to a Youtube video of Local Natives covering Cecilia, to Paul Simon and JImmy Fallon performing Cecilia on Late Night with the cast of Stomp! (Both of those links will open in a new window)

And you guys, I just realized how crazy short Paul Simon is. Like 5'3. Apparently he's pretty sensitive about it.
