Lyrics:
You just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
Ooh, slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just listen to me
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free

Maravilhoso
Every time I hear this (and I make sure it happens a lot), I have this wtf feeling. How come he could come up with this? But then I always remember, it's Paul Simon, the one and only, we are talking about. He already had a more than great drum intro, then an amazing chord progression combined with his excellent voice and lyrics and then add to this a huge twist (a shift from minor to major). It's not often that I can witness such awesomeness, musical excellence, and even less so in a song. Now that's exactly what he did. This song always reminds me why it's important to keep an open mind about music and to know your roots. Thank you Paul for this.
Yeah those chord changes in the verses were always a challenge for me to identify before CZcams. They were just amazing to me. Now that CZcams is hear I'm even more amazed.
one of the best songs of all time.
I’ve never heard the organ being played that well.
I thought it was Donald Fagen at first glance.
The man is unbelievable!
Watching this video immediately after finding his performance from ‘82...
No loss in vocal quality 😱😳🔥
Congrats to Paul for investing in his voice 👏🏼
That's really not true. And honestly I find it a bit absurd to expect any Singer to magically keep their great voice for all their life. That's really not how it works, what can be said is that Paul Simon's Guitar Playing is still on point though.
@@JustiaFiat He definitely sounds older, but in no way does he sound bad...
I saw Bob Dylan 2004... he didn't even make an effort to sing or even look at the crowd.
@@ShindlersFiist i had a History of Rock n Roll class in college and the teacher was a huge Dylan fan. He saw him 16 times in his life, and he said by the end he'd have to leave halfway through the show
What???!!! I really remember this song . A masterpiece .STOP Dissecting it , “this and that”!!! This performance was PERFECT👍👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
So smooth how the players keeps playing the chorus at 3:50 instead of the outro - fantastic band
I thought the same thing. Actually, the drummer was starting to play the outro then changed up when Paul started up the chorus again. I think he called an audible but it came off fine.
Paul's the best song writer since Bob Dylan.
Rhymin' Simon is a treasure
Some awesome live music right there !
I see Paul Simon completely different as an adult!!! 😍
I remember this from high school! I'm gonna leave it out back, Jack!
!
QUEL TALENT !!!!! J'ai envie de pleurer j'aurai rêvé de les voir en concert 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I have dreamed of that too!
Paul ANOTHER MASTERPIECE
I’m just rediscovering your music and I just keep wanting more I think your brilliant much love ❤️
Always reminded me of a sleepover at my White friend's home (I'm Black by the way) where we shared a bedroom and sang along to AM radio all night. Then in the daytime I wore her older sister's clothes and we rode bikes around town dressed like twins. We rode to the police station to get license plates for the bicycles like you had to do back then. We were like sisters and had so much fun every time!!! 50 ways was like a rock Dr. Suess song, and we couldn't get enough. Memories!
Loved this song as s kid.
Best song for ever great
Dude, Paul Simon responded to your comment!!!
A masterpiece! Absolutely impressive as always. And this arrangement, just wow
This is so perfect!
Except where the drummer went into the outro pattern instead of the last chorus. 😂
Haha! You're right!@@ViaticalTree 🤣🤣
To all you young folk viewing this in 2090 - this is how real popular music is crafted, we hope you are keeping it alive & well!
Are you deaf yet old fart?
Don't be so fkin patronising and conceited. There's always beautiful music being created in every generation.
yea! young folk have a listen! especially to my favorite part 3:11

Bu sevgi-Bu saygı- Bu ziyafet... Yıllarını müziğe adamış onurlu sanatçı... Çok teşekkürler....
The master plying his craft
Paul Simon is DA Best!
When this song was topping the charts the radio station used to play it roughly about the same time everyday. Between 11-11:15 everyday in the cafeteria at school you could hear this song. Great memories. ❤
I LOVE THIS SONG GREW UP ON IT
Wow!! What an awesome job the drummer did! Steve gadd would probably approve 100 % ! Did him proud! Very, very nice! He must feel great performing that well at this level! Well done brother 🥁😎
Except the part where he went into the outro pattern instead of the last chorus. 😂
This song always make me laugh 😂😂😂
who freakin' thumbs down this stuff. I mean, seriously?
Obviously some a-hole who has absolutely no taste in great music.
Great job on the drums without Steve Gadd playing his classic groove. Wow--that was awesome
Paul Simon = never ending songs
everything is perfect in this song the chord progression to the drums
Thx...
Eu amo essa levada na bateria
Paul at his Best Great Back up Band
That direction at the end was epic.
...this song is sadder than I realized...as a youth, I only have memories of the choruses...but, after hearing the verses - this song, literally, made my eyes water
This is my childhood, in the back seat of our car singing away in the 70’s😁😁😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
La batería es una joya ♥️🔥👏👏👏
This Groooove is so groovy... Steve Gadd, amazing. Thank you
You're talking my language. FarOut Man!
Admired you for years. Dangling conversation shaped my poetic destiny.
Parabéns cada som melhor que o outro eu piro nas músicas deste cara 👏👏👏👏
I always loved that song.
I was watching an old CZcams clip on Paul and Dick..he was performing the not finished “I meet an old friend “…then my daughter strolls in with her guitar and says I’m working on another song..and away she went…..these people are gifted beautiful people….check out her if you want “thanks Mom”….
But Paul is the man..Period..
HUGE hit in the 70s and my friends & I memorized it which was tough to do. Something w the words changing slightly in the chorus. Can’t really remember. I like this jazzy live version.
Good old music by the great Paul Simon yeah
Legend!
Well done❤❤❤❤❤
Omg 😍😍😍😍
3:47 Sounds like the band wanted to quit early! Look at Paul pointing at them to keep going at 3:50!
Well the band stayed together. Sounds more like Paul decided to throw in an extra surprise chorus.
It always amazes me how musicians stay in sync w each other. There’s no sheet music or conductor yet they just do it.
I think it was supposed to end there and Paul changed his mind. Took a while to the drummer to perceive that (and a lot of gestures from Paul), but the bassist didn't lost a second.
@@Asmuk all in the flow
Drummer went back into the Gadd section too early
still love your music
Yeah!
Just like that!!!!😎😎😎
Awesome
One of greatest songwriters in history of mankind ...the Jewish people intelligent? ...yes they are ...it's okay to be intelligent ...and cool too 🎤🎶🎸🎺 ...the drumroll is ice-ning, on the cake 🎂
@Paul Frederic Simon very welcome ...my love & respect for you & your art, is immeasurable ...very grateful Paul 👨 🎶🎤🎺🎸
@Paul Frederic Simon grateful ...✌

The problem is all inside your head, she said to me
The answer is easy if you take it logically
I'd like to help you in your struggle to be free
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
She said, it's really not my habit to intrude
Furthermore, I hope my meaning won't be lost or misconstrued
But I'll repeat myself at the risk of being crude
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
Fifty ways to leave your lover
You just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
Ooh, slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
You just listen to me
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
She said it grieves me so to see you in such pain
I wish there was something I could do to make you smile again
I said I appreciate that and would you please explain
About the fifty ways
She said, why don't we both just sleep on it tonight?
And I believe in the morning you'll begin to see the light
And then she kissed me and I realized she probably was right
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
Fifty ways to leave your lover
You just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just get yourself free
Oh, you hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
Slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
You just listen to me
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
Thank you for the lyrics. I started the video over just a sing along with Paul. Thanks 😊.
And I believe in the morning you'll begin to see the light
Then the people bowed and prayed to the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its WAR ning
With the words that it was FOR ME ng
I'm just one more scribble on the sub stream walls.

Just go to the IV - V - I -- like the other guys on the bus.
It's really quite clever - like Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah.
The lyrics describe the chord variations he plays.
From a fan in sweden. You are the best ❤️ I
It is sad to think that people believe that only the drummer made this song. Anybody can play the drums it's not that hard. But the talent takes in writing the music and singing it. I've noticed all through my life when Paul Simon had his own separate career they couldn't give him credit for anything they always got to give credit to somebody else in the group he's playing with at the time. Give credit where credit's due Paul Simon was a musical genius.
"Anybody can play the drums it's not that hard".
Congrats on the dumbest comment I've read this week.
That may be true...but not like Steve Gadd...😊
Steve Gadd is responsible for putting the energy into this track.. the story is out there of his participation and how he turned this whole thing around.. not everybody can add the magic and Steve has proved that time and time again
Fly out of the way, Ray. Missed that.
Way too cool for school xxx
I love this track so much. Nothing will ever beat it, but, I would really love to hear a cover of it by jamiroquai or sting just for fun, you know, just to see how it would turn out.
Or even dave matthews?
Wish I had been at the concert 😢
I've been quoting this my entire life lmaoooooo
Hot Hammond !!
50 ways to love your leaver!
Much like the Beatles melded then tore apart genre conventions (blues, rock n roll, psychedelia) and laid the groundwork for the birth of metal and AOR, Paul effortlessly blends folk and rock'n'roll with gospel and minstrelesque balladeering and is the model SINGER SONGWRITER to which every modern representative can trace their lineage. As important as Bob Dylan? Perhaps not, but almost unbelievably consistent over more than fifty years and able to experiment with form and expression without ever tipping over into 'artsy nonsense' and with an incredible arsenal of songs that are both eternally listenable and utterly relatable.
He wrote a song about a comet that makes me cry, and the single best song ever written about a type of celluloid. That's genius.
To avoid ambiguity, I am saying he's better than Dylan.... come at me (politely).
Edit: I forgot to mention Reggae, and Isicathamiya/Mbube among Paul's influences. Ironic, given this show.

Ready? Seygo!
I think the drummer did amazing playing this classic Steve Gadd song. You can tell he might have been the sub drummer or on the first gig of their tour because of the slight mistake at 3:42 but the recovery was flawless and most people missed it completely! Does anyone know who the drummer was because I really enjoyed his take on this song! 👍🏻🥁
Jim Oblon!
I don't think it was a mistake. It seemed to me that Paul decided to improvise one last chorus before ending the song. If you listen closely, the whole band changes dynamic, as if the song was really about to end. Based on this performance alone, I think it was a last minute decision. But I would have to listen to other performances from this same tour to be sure.
But you're right, Steve Gadd has huge shoes to fill, and Jim nailed it.
With the chorus he was teaching his son about rhyming
😎😎😎😎😎
Get Yourself Free!
I hate this song with a passion!!!! I was in junior high when this song came out. My name is Gus. Can you imagine how many times I heard , “hop on the bus, Gus” after the bell rang and I was walking past the line of school buses to get to my bus?
Gestal Couples Therapy can show you ways to make it work !
What’s that?
Drummer absolutely scuffed the groove on this one
Dieses Lied ist ein Art der und auch Geistern
Played my drum set to it 10/10

I love this song . Thank you , Paul. But way 50 ways. Why should there be one if they are decent!
‘Down Under’ is very similar 🦘
Only
my ears are looking for to hear STEVE GADD in this song... Who are with me... Hope on the bus gus..
OO. My mom in late 70s Put that record on. I listened! I thought should try a new bus? Hmm Gus? Hey I have left lovers. Never anyway he said,
I'd liké to do liké this concert in m'y vêlage Ouarzazate because liké Paul Simone thiri'snt a loot.
And aour responsabilité is to gaeve to thé future génération good culture.

This is one of those song where the message of the song is lost to the rhythm.

Ia that Jerry Rivera playing the trumpet?
Miley Cyrus does a pretty great version of this song, it's actually how I found it originally. Love both now
Sting would murder this
The guy calling for an extra chorus and the band accomplishing readily enough.....
Number.
Hey Paul, I figured out supercalifragalisticexpealadocious, it means Not in California. God said you are forehead number 52, with a past life of Simon Peter. Love from Mendocino California Thanks
now why is it from the first sound of the snare you know that’s not Stevie Gadd?
Go listen to the drummer in this video play guitar. (Jim Oblon) One of the best guitars alive today....
@@jasondarling what a moron you are. that’s like saying the guy flying his plane is a rotten pilot but he’s a hell of a carpenter.
@@sammysouth8372 You don't need to be insulting. The guy is also a hell of a drummer. He's playing the groove differently than Steve Gadd, so of course you can tell it's a different guy. It doesn't matter that he's not Steve Gadd. He played this song great, and the drums aren't even his primary instrument.
@@kevinconnor6035 insulting? that’s not insulting. if i called him a shitbag son of a pig now that would be insulting. but that, that’s just saying he’s not steve gadd. so go on get lost.

Zero ways for Jackie and Jake to loose each other
The issue with this track is that you do need Steve Gadd on drums
Even Paul Simon disagrees.
@@Igor_Vinicius I am judging by the final result :)
@@gabrielmazza882Paul Simon still disagrees. :)
@@Igor_Vinicius age make him lose clarity of mind :)
@@gabrielmazza882 Claro, quem sabe das coisas é o grande Gabriel Mazza (tinha que ser brasileiro).
