Hi guys,

sorry if I missed this question during an earlier thread........

What was Paul wrong about in August 1993?

Just curious? Capeman? Bill Clinton? Volvo instead of an Audi?

Still I am not sure if Paul means Art Garfunkel. In that interview he only said something like : "Oh yes, that is pretty me...."

Me too, Bodo.
I think that he is talking about three different times in which he was wrong, no relation between agoust 1993 and his best friend. Garfunkel can surely be one of his best friend, but not the only one. He could have others.
I don´t think that Simon is still stimulated to talk about Garfunkel using a song for context.

Bodo, what article are you referring to? Do you have a link? I haven´t seen any articles that address that question.

Was Paul Simon wrong or was it a character in the song? Lots of his recent songs are written in the first person but they are characters. Best example is ´Darling Lorraine´

I would say most of his songs are written in the first person on YTO

Thats where I belong
Senorita with a necklace
Quiet
Lorraine
You´re The One
Old
The Teacher

I think it is simply more personal than writting about another person.
