What Are You Listening To Wednesday
Bellezza has created a new meme. Here's what she has to say:
After the responses to my post on Norah Jones, and dear Les saying, "I love to see what you're listening to!" I thought I'd suggest What Are You Listening To Wednesday.
It doesn't have to be music. It could be conversations you overheard during coffee at Starbucks. It could be the children in your home (or classroom). It could be the things you're telling yourself with a small, still voice inside. It could be an audio book or a movie. Just tell us, what are you listening to?
I wrote about my love for Simon and Garfunkel here. Nan also wrote about them here. Did you know that Paul turned 70 on October 13 and Art will be 70 this Saturday? Amazing.
There are so many wonderful, memorable songs on this album. Click here to listen to some samples. My favorites? Loves Me Like a Rock, Kodachrome, and American Tune.
At $13.19, this is a steal for a double album, don't you think?

Oh, Loves Me Like a Rock - a total favorite. I'm listening (audiobook) to Sh*t My Dad Says.
ReplyDeleteI can listen to Paul Simon anytime!
ReplyDeleteI love Simon & Garfunkel too. My favorites are probably Cecilia, Bridge Over Troubled Water and Homeward Bound.
ReplyDeleteI really haven't listened much to these guys..sad huh?
ReplyDeletePam - Sh*t My Dad Says is still selling like crazy. I'll bet it's pretty funny on audio. ;)
ReplyDeleteJenclair - I need to dig out some of my older albums. I tend to get in a rut and listen to the same stuff week after week. I love this old classic stuff.
Kathy - I love Bridge Over Troubled Water, too. And Homeward Bound. And America. And... I could go on and on. ;)
Staci - No time like the present. ;)
Yikes! I didn't even get over here to comment yesterday, let alone post my own response to my own meme...still, I love Simon and Garfunkle. My favorites would be the typical Bridge Over Troubled Water and I am a Rock. Great choice, Les! Thanks for playing! XOXOXO
ReplyDeleteI used to rock my baby to "Loves Me Like A Rock".
ReplyDeleteAlso, did you hear Paul Simon perform "Sounds of Silence" at the Sept. 11th memorial service in NYC? I put it on my blog, but I found it on YouTube. I thought it was really good.
Oh, I forgot how much I love Feelin' Groovy...
ReplyDeleteBellezza - No worries! :) The meme is giving me an excuse to think about what I'm listening to rather than just sticking something on the Bose and giving it half a listen.
ReplyDeleteI love Feelin' Groovy, too. :)
Kay G. - I saw the YouTube clip of Paul Simon's performance on 9/11. Very, very touching.
