This was from the concert in Central Park in 1981 where they played to a crowd of a HALF MILLION people. One of, if not the, largest concert audiences in history. Having heard it, now you know why this is one of the most beloved songs ever written and performed. It's almost like the theme song for an entire generation. This song was released the year I was born, and I grew up listening to it. The same year the Beatles first came to the U.S..
What a beautiful reaction...and song. Let me tell you how important this song was. It came out in 1964, and in 1970, it was being taught in English classes in high school, and probably colleges. They are among the best in every way you slice it. I had a chance to go to this concert in Central Park, New York, but went camping in New Hampshire like an idiot. All their hits will reward a listen. Peace and love.
Well, I can't remember if one or both of them composed this song. But these 2 are the source of this song. That's why they can sing it the way they did. This song is their vision. And they are performing it as they felt it when it was composed. No one else can do that as they didn't compose it.

Paul Simon was the composer and lyricist for all of their original songs.
Paul Simon wrote this when he was 21 years old.
