If I am not mistaken, "You Can Call Me Al" was sung by Paul Simon without Mr. Garfunkle. I believe that Chevy Chase was in the video for the song along with someone else, but I can't quite remember who.

2. Homeward Bound

3. I am a Rock

4. Sounds of Silence

5. Bridge over troubled waters

I like that Julio song, but I think that is just Paul Simon. When i was 5 years old, my sisters boyfriend gave her a duck and she named him Julio, so I always think of him and how I used to run after him and he would bite me on the knees...stupid duck.... He pooped everywhere because that is what ducks do.....we gave him away. Poor thing did not have any place to swim or fly so it was just not fair....

Mother & Child Reunion the same
but the video I'm thinking of for "You can call me Al" (shown on VH1) has SIMON & Garfunkle in an empty blank room, miming to the song quite well and "playing" the instruments that are featured in the song

:cool: it's a GREAT video, quite funny really, with these 2's antics and I just "LIKE" seeing the 2 of them together

I have seen plenty of comments alleging SIMON has the talent - well ok, but some ppl nevertheless still appreciate seeing the 2 together <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />

Boy, I loved their music, still do!

Scarborough Fair... what a lovely song.

Saw them in concert in Cincinnati, when I was in college-- nothing makes me feel nostalgic faster than listening to these two.
