팝 역사상 가장 아름다운 노래를 들려준 최고의 듀오 사이먼 앤 가펑클 (SIMON & GAFUNKEL) 1960년대 후반의 활동기 동안 절정의 인기를 누렸고 해체된지 40년이 훌쩍 넘은 지금까지도 공연 섭외 리스트 1순위에 올라 있는 전설의 포크 듀오 “사이먼 앤 가펑클“의 대표곡이 40곡에 총망라된 앨범 THE ESSENTIAL SIMON & GAFUNKEL 팝 음악사상 최고의 듀오를 꼽는다면 누구나 가장 먼저 떠올리게 되는 팀이 바로 사이먼 앤 가펑클일 것이다. 비록 1970년 발표한 명반 [Bridge Over Troubled Water] 이후 팀은 해체되었고 이후 50만 명의 관객이 몰렸던 1981년의 그 유명한 센트럴 파크에서의 재결합 공연 이후 자주 모습을 볼 수 없었지만 끊임없이 재결합 공연설이 나오며 음악 팬들을 설레게 만든 팀이기도 하다. 이들이 음악 활동을 통해 발표한 음반은 모두 다섯 장에 불과하고 밴드로서 정식 활동을 펼친 기간 역시 5년 여에 불과하다. 하지만 그 짧은 활동기간에도 불구하고 이들은 주옥 같은 히트 레퍼토리를 통해 팝 음악 사상 최고의 듀오로 여전히 기억되고 있다. The Sound Of Silence, I Am A Rock, A Hazy Shade Of Winter, Mrs. Robinson, El Condor Pasa(If I Could), Ceciilia, Scarborough Fair / Canticle, Bridge Over Troubled Water등 주옥 같은 곡들과 1967년 링컨 센터 라이브 9곡을 포함한 총 40곡 수록! .... ....
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 share And 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 whisper'd in the sounds of silence
I can hear the soft breathing of the girl that I love as she lies here beside me asleep with the night and her hair in a fine mist floats on my pillow reflecting the glow of the winter moonlight
she is soft, she is warm, but my heart remains heavy and I watch as her breasts, gently rise, gently fall for I know with the first line of dawn I'll be leaving and tonight will be all I have left to recall
oh what have I done, why have I done it? I've committed a crime, I've broken the law for 25 dollars and pieces of silver I held up and robbed a hard liquor store
my life seems unreal, my crime an illusion a scene badly written in which I must play yet I know as I gaze at my young love beside me the morning is just a few hours away
(*) Bye Bye Love Bye Bye Happiness Hello loneliness I think I'm gonna cry Bye Bye Love Bye Bye sweet caress Hello emptiness I feel like I could die Bye my love goodbye Bye my love goodbye
There goes my baby With someone new She sure looks happy I sure am blue She was my baby till he stepped in Goodbye to romance That might have been
(* Repeat)
I'm through with romance I'm through with love I'm through with Counting that stars above And here's the reason That I'm so free My loving baby is through with me
(* Repeat twice)
내 사랑아, 잘가요
(*) 내 사랑아 잘 가 행복아 너도 잘 가 외로움아 반갑구나 울음이 나올 것만 같아 사랑이여 잘 가 달콤한 손길과도 헤어져야 하는구나 죽고 싶은 생각이 들어 내 사랑이여 안녕 내 사랑이여 안녕
내 애인이 낯선 사람과 함께 가고 있어 확실히 그녀는 행복해 보여 나는 이렇게 우울한데 그 사람이 우리사이에 끼어들기 전까지는 그녀는 나의 연인이었는데 연애가 아니었을지도 모르지만 연애여 안녕
(* 반복)
나는 연애로 부터 해방되었어 사랑도 끝장이 나버렸어 하늘의 별을 세어 보는 일도 이제는 끝이야 내가 자유로와진 이유는 여기에 있지 그것은 내 사랑하는 연인과 헤어졌다는 것이야
Fog's rollin' in off the East River bank Like a shroud it covers Bleecker Street Fills the alleys where men sleep Hides the shepherd from the sheep Voices leaking from a sad cafe Smiling faces try to understand I saw a shadow touch a shadow's hand On Bleecker Street A poet reads his crooked rhyme Holy, holy is his sacrament Thirty dollars pays your rent On Bleecker Street I head a church bell softly chime In a melody sustainin' It's a long road to Caanan On Bleecker Street Bleecker Street
A winter's day In a deep and dark December I am alone Gazing from my window To the streets below On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow
I am a rock I am an island
I've built walls A fortress deep and mighty That none may penetrate I have no need for friendship Friendship causes pain It's laughter and it's loving I disdain.
I am a rock I am an island
Don't talk of love Well, I've heard the word before It's sleeping in my memory I won't disturb the slumber Of feelings that have died If I'd never loved, I never would have cried
I am a rock I am an island
I have my books And my poetry to protect me I am shielded in my armor Hiding in my room Safe within my womb I touch no-one and no-one touches me
I am a rock I am an island And the rock feels no pain And an island never cries
He was a most peculiar man That's what Mrs. Riordan says and she should know She lived upstairs from him She said he was a most peculiar man
He was a most peculiar man He lived all alone within a house Within a room, within himself A most peculiar man
He had no friends, he seldom spoke And no one in turn ever spoke to him 'Cause he wasn't friendly and he didn't care And he wasn't like them Oh no! He was a most peculiar man
He died last Saturday He turned on the gas and he went to sleep With the windows closed so he'd never wake up To his silent world and his tiny room And Mrs. Riordan says he has a brother somewhere Who should be notified soon And all the people said, "What a shame that he's dead But wasn't he a most peculiar man?"
They say that Richard Cory owns one half of this whole town With political connections to spread his wealth around Born into society, a banker's only child He had everything a man could want: power, grace, and style
But I work in his factory And I curse the life I'm living And I curse my poverty And I wish that I could be Oh I wish that I could be Oh I wish that I could be Richard Cory
The papers print his picture almost everywhere he goes Richard Cory at the opera, Richard Cory at a show And the rumor of his parties and the orgies on his yacht! Oh he surely must be happy with everything he's got
But I, I work in his factory And I curse the life I'm living And I curse my poverty And I wish that I could be Oh I wish that I could be Oh I wish that I could be Richard Cory
He freely gave to charity, he had the common touch And they were grateful for his patronage and they thanked him very much So my mind was filled with wonder when the evening headlines read: "Richard Cory went home last night and put a bullet through his head"
But I, I work in his factory And I curse the life I'm living And I curse my poverty And I wish that I could be Oh I wish that I could be Oh I wish that I could be Richard Cory
I hear the drizzle of the rain Like a memory it falls Soft and warm continuing Tapping on my roof and walls
And from the shelter of my mind Through the window of my eyes I gaze beyond the rain drenched streets To England where my heart lies
My mind's distracted and diffused My thoughts are many miles away They lie with you when you're asleep kiss you when you start your day as a song I was writing is left undone I don't know why I spend my time Writing songs I can't believe With words that tear and strain to rhyme
And so you see I have come to doubt All that I once held as true I stand alone without beliefs The only truth I know is you
And as I watch the drops of rain Weave their weary paths and die I know that I am like the rain There but for the grace of you go I
Are you going to Scarborough Fair: Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme. Remember me to one who lives there. She once was a true love of mine. Tell her to make me a cambric shirt On the side of a hill in the deep forest green Parsely, sage, rosemary & thyme Tracing a sparrow on snow-crested ground Without no seams nor needlework Blankets and bedclothes a child of the mountains Then she'll be a true love of mine Sleeps unaware of the clarion call Tell her to find me an acre of land On the side of a hill, a sprinkling of leaves Parsely, sage, rosemary, & thyme Washed is the ground with so many tears Between the salt water and the sea strand A soldier cleans and polishes a gun Then she'll be a true love of mine Tell her to reap it in a sickle of leather War bellows, blazing in scarlet battalions Parsely, sage, rosemary & thyme Generals order their soldiers to kill And to gather it all in a bunch of heather And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten Then she'll be a true love of mine Are you going to Scarborough Fair? Parsley, sage, rosemary & thyme Remember me to one who lives there She once was a true love of mine
I'm sitting in the railway station. Got a ticket to my destination. On a tour of one-night stands my suitcase and guitar in hand. And ev'ry stop is neatly planned for a poet and a one-man band. Homeward bound, I wish I was, Homeward bound, Home where my thought's escaping, Home where my music's playing, Home where my love lies waiting Silently for me.
Ev'ry day's an endless stream Of cigarettes and magazines. And each town looks the same to me, the movies and the factories And ev'ry stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to be, Homeward bound, I wish I was, Homeward bound, Home where my thought's escaping, Home where my music's playing, Home where my love lies waiting Silently for me.
Tonight I'll sing my songs again, I'll play the game and pretend. But all my words come back to me in shades of mediocrity Like emptiness in harmony I need someone to comfort me. Homeward bound, I wish I was, Homeward bound, Home where my thought's escaping, Home where my music's playing, Home where my love lies waiting Silently for me. Silently for me.
Who will love a little sparrow Who's traveled far and cries for rest Not I said the Oak Tree I won't share my branches with no sparrow's nest And my blanket of leaves won't warm her cold breast Who will love a little sparrow And who will speak a kindly word Not I said the Swan The entire idea is utterly absurd I'd be laughed at and scorned if the other swans heard
Who will take pity in his heart And who will feed a starving sparrow Not I said the Golden Wheat I would if I could but I cannot I know I need all my grain to prosper and grow Who will love a little sparrow Will no one write her eulogy I will said the Earth For all I've created returns unto me From dust were ye made and dust ye shall be
I was twenty-one years when I wrote this song I'm twenty-two now but I won't be for long Time hurries on And the leaves that are green turn to brown And they wither in the wind And they crumble in your hand
Once my heart was filled with the love of a girl I held her close but she faded in the night Like a poem I meant to write And the leaves that are green turn to brown And they wither in the wind And they crumble in your hand
I threw a pebble in a brook And watched the ripple run away And they never made a sound And the leaves that are green turn to brown And they wither in the wind And they crumble in your hand
Hello, hello, hello, hello Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye That's all there is And the leaves that are green turn to brown And they wither in the wind And they crumble in your hand
It's a still life water color, Of a now late afternoon, As the sun shines through the curtained lace And shadows wash the room. And we sit and drink our coffee Couched in our indifference, Like shells upon the shore You can hear the ocean roar In The Dangling Conversation And the superficial sighs, The borders of our lives.
And you read your Emily Dickinson, And I my Robert Frost, And we note our place with bookmarkers That measure what we've lost. Like a poem poorly written We are verses out of rhythm, Couplets out of rhyme, In syncopated time And The Dangling Conversation And the superficial sighs Are the borders of our lives.
Yes we speak of things that matter, With words that must be said, "Can analysis be worthwhile?" "Is the theater really dead?" And how the room is softly faded And I only kiss your shadow, I cannot feel your hand, You're a stranger now unto me Lost in The Dangling Conversation And the superficial sighs In the borders of our lives.
The last train is nearly due The underground is closing soon And in the dark deserted station Restless in anticipation A man waits in the shadows
His restless eyes leap and scratch At all that they can touch or catch And hidden deep within his pocket Safe within its silent socket He holds a colored crayon
Now from the tunnel's stony womb The carriage rides to meet the groom And open wide and welcome doors But he hesitates, and then withdraws Deeper in the shadows
And the train is gone suddenly On wheels clicking silently Like a gently tapping litany And he holds his crayon rosary Tighter in his hand
Now from his pocket quick he flashes The crayon on the wall he slashes Deep upon the advertising A single worded poem consisting Of four letters
And his heart is laughing, screaming, pounding The poem across the tracks rebounding Shadowed by the exit light His legs take their ascending flight To seek the breast of darkness and be suckled by the night
Blessed are the meek for they shall in herit Blessed is the lamb whose blood flows Blessed are the sat upon spat upon ratted on O Lord why have you forsaken me I got no place to go I've walked around So ho for the last night or so Ah but it doesn't matter no
Blessed is the land and the kingdom Blessed is the man whose soul belongs to Blessed are the meth drinkers pot sellers illusion dwellers O Lord why have you forsaken me My words trickle down from a wound That I have no intention to heal
Blessed are the stained glass window pane glass Blessed is the church service makes me nervous Blessed are the penny rookers cheap hookers groovy lookers O Lord why have you forsaken me
Cloudy The sky is gray and white and cloudy Sometimes I think it's hanging down on me And it's a hitchhike a hundred miles I'm a raga-muffin child Pointed finger-painted smile I left my shadow waiting down the road for me a while
Cloudy My thoughts are scattered and they're cloudy They have no boreders, no boundaries They echo and they swell From Tolstoi to Tinkerbell Down from Berkeley to Carmel Got some pictures in my pocket and a lot of time to kill
Hey sunshine I haven't seen you in a long time Why don't you show your face and bend my mind? These clouds stick to the sky Like a floating question why And they linger there to die They don't know where they are going, and, my friend, neither do I
Catch a boat to England, baby, Maybe to Spain Wherever I have gone, Wherever I've been and gone Wherever I have gone The blues run the game
Send out for whiskey, baby, Send out for gin Me and room service, honey Me and room service, babe Me and room service, whoa We're livin' a life of sin
When I ain't drinkin', baby You are on my mind When I ain't sleepin', honey When I ain't sleepin', momma When I ain't sleepin', well You know you'll find me crying
Catch a boat to England, baby, Maybe to Spain Wherever I have gone, Wherever I've been and gone Wherever I have gone The blues run the game
Livin' is a gamble, baby Lovin's much the same Wherever I have played Wherever I throw those dice Wherever I have played The blues run the game
Maybe when I'm older, baby Someplace down the line I'll wake up older So much older, momma Wake up older And I'll just stop all my tryin'
Catch a boat to England, baby, Maybe to Spain Wherever I have gone, Wherever I've been and gone Wherever I have gone The blues are all the same
Time, Time, Time, see what's become of me While I looked around for my possibilities.
I was so hard to please. Look around, Leaves are brown, And the sky is a hazy shade of winter.
Hear the Salvation Army band. Down by the riverside's Bound to be a better ride Than what you've got planned.
Carry your cup in your hand. And look around. Leaves are brown. And the sky is a hazy shade of winter.
Hang on to your hopes, my friend. That's an easy thing to say, But if your hopes should pass away Simply pretend that you can build them again. Look around, The grass is high, The fields are ripe, It's the springtime of my life.
Seasons change with the scenery; Weaving time in a tapestry. Won't you stop and remember me At any convenient time? Funny how my memory skips Looking over manuscripts Of unpublished rhyme.
Drinking my vodka and lime, I look around, Leaves are brown, And the sky is a hazy shade of winter.

When you're weary Feeling small When tears are in your eyes I will dry them all I'm on your side When times get rough And friends just can't be found Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down

Someone told me It's all happening at the zoo I do believe it I do believe it's true Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm Oh ho ho ho Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm
It's a light and tumble journey From the East Side to the park Just a fine and fancy ramble To the zoo
But you can take the crosstown bus If it's raining or it's cold And the animals will love it If you do
If ya do now
Something tells me It's all happening at the zoo I do believe it I do believe it's true Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm Oh ho ho ho Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm
The monkeys stand for honesty Giraffes are insincere And the elephants are kindly but they're dumb Ourang-outangs are skeptical Of changes in their cages And the zookeeper is very fond of rum
Zebras are reactionaries Antelopes are missionaries Pigeons plot in secrecy And hamsters turn on frequently What a gas Ya gotta come and see At the zoo At the zoo At the zoo At the zoo
When she goes, she's gone. If she stays, she stays here. The girl does what she wants to do. She knows what she wants to do. And I know I'm fakin' it, I'm not really makin' it.
I'm such a dubious soul, And a walk in the garden Wears me down. Tangled in the fallen vines, Pickin' up the punch lines, I've just been fakin' it, Not really makin' it.
Is there any danger? No, no, not really. Just lean on me. Takin' time to treat Your friendly neighbors honestly. I've just been fakin' it, I'm not really makin' it. This feeling of fakin' it- I still haven't shaken it.
Prior to this lifetime I surely was a tailor. ("Good morning, Mr. Leitch. Have you had a busy day?") I own the tailor's face and hands I am the tailor's face and hands and I know I'm fakin' it, I'm not really makin' it. This feeling of fakin' it- I still haven't shaken it.
Old friends, old friends sat on their parkbench like bookends A newspaper blowin´ through the grass Falls on the round toes of the high shoes of the old friends
Old friends, winter companions, the old men Lost in their overcoats, waiting for the sun The sounds of the city sifting through trees Settles like dust on the shoulders of the old friends
Can you imagine us years from today, sharing a parkbench quietly How terribly strange to be seventy
Old friends, memory brushes the same years, silently sharing the same fears
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
Wish I was a Kellogg's Cornflake Floatin' in my bowl takin' movies Relaxin' a while, livin' in style Talkin' to a raisin who 'casionally plays L.A. Casually glancing at his toupee
Wish I was an English muffin 'Bout to make the most out of a toaster I'd ease myself down Comin' up brown I prefer boysenberry More than any ordinary jam I'm a "Citizens for Boysenberry Jam" fan
Ah, South California
If I become a first lieutenant Would you put my photo on your piano? "To Maryjane- Best wishes, Martin" (Old Roger draft-dodger Leavin' by the basement door) Everybody knows what he's Tippy-toeing down there for
Why don't we stop fooling ourselves? The game is over, over, over
No good times, no bad times There's no times at all Just The New York Times Sitting on the windowsill Near the flowers
We might as well be apart It hardly matters We sleep separately And drop a smile passing in the hall But there's no laughs left 'Cause we laughed them all And we laughed them all In a very short time
Time Is tapping on my forehead Hanging from my mirror Rattling the teacups And I wonder How long can I delay? We're just a habit Like Saccharin
And I'm habitually feelin' kinda blue
But each time I try on The thought of leaving you I stop I stop and think it over
A church is burning the flames rise higher Like hands that are praying a glow in the sky Like hands that are praying the fire is saying You can burn down my churches but I shall be free Three hooded men thru the back roads did creep Torches in their hands while the village lies asleep Down to the church where just hours before Voices were singing and hands were beating and saying I won't be a slave any more and a church is burning the flames rise higher Like hands that are praying a glow in the sky Like hands that are praying the fire is saying You can burn down my churches but I shall be free Three hooded men their hands lit the spark Then they faded in the night and they vanished in the dark And in the cool light of morning there's nothing that remains But the ashes of a Bible and a can kerosene and a church is burning the flames rise higher Like hands that are praying a glow in the sky Like hands that are praying the fire is saying You can burn down my churches but I shall be free church is more than just timber and stone And freedom is a dark road when you're walking it alone But the future is now and it's time to take a stand So the lost bells of freedom can ring out in my land and a church is burning the flames rise higher Like hands that are praying a glow in the sky Like hands that are praying the fire is saying You can burn down my churches but I shall be free
"Let us be lovers we'll marry our fortunes together" "I've got some real estate here in my bag" So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner pies And we walked off to look for America "우리 연인이 되어서 우리의 재산을 합치는 게 어떨까?" "난 가방 안에 돈을 좀 가져왔어." 그래서 우리는 담배 한 보루와 와그너여사 파이를 샀다. 그리고 우리는 미국을 찾아 걸어서 떠났다.
"Kathy," I said as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh "Michigan seems like a dream to me now" It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw I've gone to look for America 우리가 피츠버그에서 그레이하운드 버스에 올랐을 때 난 말했다. "캐시, 미시건은 지금 내게 꿈만 같아." 내가 새그노어에서 히치하이크 하는 데 4일이나 걸렸다. 난 미국을 찾아서 떠난 것이었다.
Laughing on the bus Playing games with the faces She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy I said "Be careful. His bowtie is really a camera" 버스에서 웃고 다른 이들과 게임을 즐기면서 보냈다. 그녀가 개버딘 옷을 입은 남자는 간첩일 거라고 말했다. 나는 "조심해, 그의 나비 넥타이는 실제로는 사진기일거야."라고 말했다.
"Toss me a cigarette, I think there's one in my raincoat" "We smoked the last one an hour ago" So I looked at the scenery, she read her magazine And the moon rose over an open field "내게 담배 하나 던져줘, 내 레인코트에 하나 남아있을 거야." "우린 한 시간 전에 마지막 담배를 피웠어." 그래서 난 풍경을 바라보았고, 그녀는 잡지를 읽었다. 그리고 달은 너른 들판 위로 떠올랐다.
"Kathy, I'm lost," I said, though I knew she was sleeping I'm empty and aching and I don't know why Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike They've all gone to look for America All gone to look for America All gone to look for America "캐시, 난 길을 잃은 것 같아." 그녀가 잠든 걸 알았지만 난 중얼거렸다. 난 공허하고 아픈데 왜 그런지 모르겠다. 뉴저지의 고속도로 요금 징수소에 있는 차들을 세어보았다. 그들은 모두 미국을 찾기 위해 떠난 것이었다. 모두 미국을 찾기 위해 떠난 것이었다. ...

Gee but its great to be back home Home is where I want to be I've been on the road so long my friend that if you came along I know you couldn't disagree its the same old story Everywhere I go I get slandered Libeled, I hear words I never heard in the bible and I'm one step ahead of the shoeshine Two steps away from the county line Just trying to keep my customers satisfied satisfied

When I left my home and my family I was no more than a boy In the company of strangers In the quiet of a railway station Running scared laying low Seeking out the poorer quarters Where the ragged people go Looking for the places only they would know Lie la lie

Lie la lie
Then I'm laying out my winter clothes And wishing I was gone going home Where the New York City winters aren't bleeding me Leading me going home
In the clearing stands a boxer And a fighter by his trade And he carries the reminders Of every glove that laid him down Or cut him till he cried out In his anger and his shame I am leaving I am leaving But the fighter still remains

Tom, get your plane right on time. I know you've been eager to fly now. Hey let your honesty shine, shine, shine Da-n-da-da-n-da-da-n-da-da Like it shines on me The only living boy in New York, The only living boy in New York.
this is my song for the asking ask me and i will play so sweetly i´ll make you smile
this is my dream for the taking take it, don´t turn away all the love that i feel inside
thinking it over i´d be sad, thinking it over i´m more than glad to change my ways for the asking ask me and i will play i´ve been waiting here all my life.
In my little town I grew up believing God keeps his eye on us all And he used to lean upon me As I pledged allegiance to the wall Lord I recall my little town Coming home after school Riding my bike past the gates of the factories My mom doing the laundry Hanging out shirts in the dirty breeze And after it rains there's a rainbow And all of the colors are black It's not that the colors aren't there It's just imagination they lack Everything's the same back in my little town
In my little town I never meant nothing I was just my father's son Saving my money Dreamin of glory Twitching like a finger on a trigger of a gun
Nothing but the dead and dying back in my little town Nothing but the dead and dying back in my little town Nothing but the dead and dying back in my little town
