Is it just me? I have been listening for the last few days to the reworked version of Sound of Silence by Disturbed. I find it better that the original it seems to have more feeling and be more alive and poignant anyway thats my music review done for the year

[SCENE: Neil is in the tub, looking depressed, and strumming a minor chord on his guitar. Rick barges in and throws a towel off camera, perhaps in a hamper, oblivious to Neil. Rick suddenly notices the overhead light.]
RICK: Neil, is it really necessary to have the light on when you're in the bath?
NEIL: Well... yeah!
RICK: Why, what are you planning to do, photosynthesise? We all pay for the electricity in this house you know!
[turns it off and leaves, slamming the door]
NEIL: [still strumming, begins singing] Hello darkness my old friend....

There was quite a bit about this about 6 weeks ago on CWDF. And again now.

I really like Disturbed's version, it's passionate! For me, it made me see the lyrics in a whole different light.

As an interesting aside though,I was listening to BBC Three Counties Radio the other day, and they had a bloke on who had Paul Simon sleeping on his floor prior to him playing a Folk Festival in Cambridge back in the early sixties.You wouldn't get many people to beat that story down the pub. |

Paul Simon used to come round to our house in the early hours and pump our bicycle tyres up for us when we were still sleeping. We used to leave out a 50p coin for him and a mince pie.

Just reading on the internet that Paul Simon was paid £15 the equivalent of £250 today for playing at the first Cambridge Folk Festival which took place in Cherry Hinton 53 years ago.Apparently it was just after the release of "I am a rock" and he had been in the area playing at a private party and agreed at short notice to perform. |
