Sometimes you just need a little Simon & Garfunkel in
your life, right? Right! I mean, who doesn’t love the sweet
sounds of the 60s to either brighten or soften your mood?
Although I’m a child of the 80’s and 90’s, the car rides
with my mom growing up were always accompanied by great music from all
eras. Mainly the 60’s and 70’s,
since that’s when she grew up. She
tried to instill a love of everything and not just what was popular. I would say to this day I like pretty
much everything. I may listen to
certain genres more than others, but if an oldie comes on the radio, I’m down
to jam.
One of my faves from the past is Simon &
Garfunkel. I mean, what’s not to
love? They had awesome music,
great classics to this day, and a unique sound all their own. One of my fave songs is Cecilia because
that’s my mom’s name – but she’s not a huge fan of the tune. It may have something to do with the
fact that the Cecilia in the song is kind of a slut. I mean, she breaks a lot of hearts.
My all-time favorite song though is A Hazy Shade of
Winter. I don’t know what it is
about that song, but I just love it.
It’s so catchy, has a great beat, and when I need a dance break in the
middle of the day at work – I do a little Simon & Garfunkel blasting. I usually make sure a coworker or
two is around to join in. I like
to call it my Simon & Garfunkel break, and I know DY and KK Reno have
joined me a time or two.
So while this blog wasn’t very ground-breaking or all
that insightful, I just wanted to share my passion of a well-known
duo like Simon &
Garfunkel. Maybe if I blast it
now, I’ll get inspired to do some much-needed filing. Or maybe not. Oh well.
