I wasn't going to keep posting, but... I love this song. The way it just floats along. But watch out, it is sticky.
(I've never understood it, though. "We never laughed so long..." ? )
So Long, Frank Lloyd Wright / Simon & Garfunkel

Art Garfunkel, who had studied architecture, requested that Simon write a song about the architectย Frank Lloyd Wright. Simon knew little about Wright, so just used his name as a substitute and instead wrote a nostalgic song about Garfunkel.

Wow. Thanks. That solves a lifelong mystery. -
Wow. Thanks. That solves a lifelong mystery.Listening again, I went through a series of emotions. The song is so sweet... It's almost like a love song... And then I felt sad that S&G eventually split up... But then I thought of the adage "Don't cry because they're gone; smile because they were here" ... Which I had been thinking about very recently when I heard a song that reminded me of someone very dear to me who died.
All that, from a simple exchange about a song.
