Simon, Paul - The Sound Of Silence Lyrics
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
Neath the halo of a streetlamp, I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light, 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, and no one dared
To stir the sound of silence
Fool, said I, you do not know, silence, like a cancer, grows
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'd made
And the sign flashed 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 sounds of silence

Song old, song so timeless, song so sweet!
Paul Simon is such a great composer and his songs may be sang and resung by every generation!
Als "junger Erwachsener" 1982 (ich war 24 Jahre) in Deutschland im Konzert in Offenbach mit Art Garfunkel- Heute die Erinnerung (ich bin inzwischen fast 62 Jahrealt) - Paul Simon - einfach toll

Have always loved this song ,requested this played at my funeral
I was so fortunate to witness MR Paul Simon live on his last run tour.
It was Amazing.. I gave away an extra ticket i bought for my sister for her birthday that didnt wan to come from a grudge. Faite is fate an hipster hippie lady gave the ticket i gave her to her daughter. We had a blast. I bought her some merch and tolder her about my friend jimmie / jim Beckstead. who fought for you and me in Nam. Volunteered 4 tour's. He was so loving and giving. And my gift was from him to you to enjoy this.
Hello, you are the best of ... this is the miracle ... ❤
Amazing lyrics
Why do I cry when I listen the song?
Because you have a soul!!👍
Genial !
What a pure joy it would be to listen to beautiful music without the morons who go to concerts and whistle all the time.
Geben es zu, ja mir kamen die Tränen, Danke für so eine schöne Musik und so klasse Texte.

Paul McCartney Neil young Paul Simon, just give them an ACCOUSTIC guitar no backing singers no accompliment just them on their own. No one does it better.
Che troiaio.....ma come si può sciupare una canzone che ha fatto la storia ?
I hate that I can only like this once.
fantasztikus

Nothing sadder than hearing this without Artie.
if u want to hear something sadder, listen to him playing this at the 10-yr memorial for 9/11.... incredible
Paul Simon and Disturbed should do a duo of this song
BBT ED Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel should do a duet of it..
Purely wonderful
Favoloso
this is a joke
The greatest lyrics writer in Rock history.

Sublime
Religion p eople says that song is goo d to pray . Jajajjajaja they have any idea what they say
What the hell did you just say? Hahaha
His voice sounds a little a bit like Kermit
Lovely!
Great song
I can't believe it 54 years ago Paul Simon wrote sounds of silence I love ir even more today . Just one of the many songs that gives hope and comfort on this incredible jjourney through life thanks Paul
Anybody playing this their marching band-
💗 God bless.....
Paul Simon is a freaking genius and master. So, thankful he is part of my generation.
🇧🇷🇧🇷 fantástico 💖
I Love how he sings it a full octave lower compared to art, I personally think it really fits the haunting feeling of the song, Fk love it
Silence when you sing 🎤 it is so beautiful 😍 the audience is so wonderful they are singing to you ✨❤️
*2019 ??*
Most people loved that song because of the original tone,, but when it played not the same tone, it may not be so good to hear..
Great Paul!
Studied the lyrics of this song in class some 50 years ago, It has stayed with me, haunted me and continues to give me meaning half a century on. It reveals significance with every visitation. That, is art!
Was at this concert and yes it was just as awesome as it looks on the tube, amazing song, amazing artist
That solemn moment of the setting sun and the song amazing
Nope. I don't like this rendition. Skip.
Why? Because of Art's absence?
Rod96 No. I prefer Simon without Garfunkel.
@Sean Webb Hahaha that's what I'm asking. Paul Simon wrote the song, the only thing missing is his ex-partner Art Garfunkel..
@Rod96 Nope. It is not the only difference.
Some people I wish I had lived forever. Paul Simen you are one of them!
I guess I was 9 years old when I first your songs. It was something about a tape recorder and something about a bridge over troubled waters. And then there was a silence and a condor.
You were my hero!
You sang and I had no idea about what you were singing and why.
But I was hooked.
God bless you Paul Simon together with your friend Art.
Today I'm 57 and still I weep upon hearing your songs.
God bless you.
Where is Mr Garfunkel?
So special.
Your spirit is divine and I thank you from my hearts light within, my family has had you in there lives as many have and what a lucky life it is for you to grace us with your enlightening words and awesome voice, I am starting to post and share my views of nature and skies with some light hearted fun and would love to use the last third of A bridge over troubled water in a post as the words are how I feel and would love to express that to my small community of viewers who also have the love for all life around them, it is inspiring just like you are I do know your super busy but if by chance you read this and all who do, I send you blessings of compassion and joy to be with and around you always.
Don't really like this version.. I hate when they take a great song and kinda "frank sinatra" it. It is a very beautiful and dramatic song, and this just feels like he's tired of doing it and slogs
Zo mooi
Paul Simone you are a star and a good human being. Thank you for giving Kodi Lee permission to sing your Master piece. A bridge over troubled waters😍😍😍😍😍💋💯👏👏👏👏👏
