Paul Simon's Duncan

[musicPhan#41]

awesome song.

look, i don't know much about paul simon, but i LOVE this song. the live version from "live rhymin" plays in the store that i work at, every once in awhile, and i always have loved it.


if i'm ever a musician, this will be one of the first songs that i cover.

anyone else love the song?

Paul Simon is a genius , all his songs are prime stuff ............ he also has one of the best voices in the history of 'Rock' ....... such a wonderfully gifted guy , his music will last for thousands of years.

"Duncan" is probably my favorite Paul Simon song.

Plus the lyrics make me giggle.

Glad to see you still like it!

"Duncan" is brilliant!

I recommend Paul Simon's "Paul Simon"--it includes "Duncan" and a bunch of other incredible, lesser-known Simon songs...for beginners though "Negotiations and Love Songs" is a must!

one of the strangest and also brilliant albums is this one .....

it is real eye opening stuff even has swearing on it .... the story is a true one and it is a killer (no pun intended!) of an album .... it took me a couple of listens to get the genius of it ...... this is unlike his other stuff , it may even shock you!

^I like the "Vampires" track, because I like hearing him sing in Spanish.

If you got cajones, come on, mete mano...

i am shocked to fine other people here who love paul simon. oddly, 'duncan' is not one of my favorite songs of his. ive never been able to enjoy the melody very much, but i do enjoy the lyrics. he tells the most incredible storys in just 4 minutes. he somehow fits everything in; beginning, middle, end, symbolisms and conclusion(s). he is my all time favorite songwriter. he is truly an artist, which is rare to find in songwriters these days. his voice and words move my soul and my ears call him home.

i am listening to Songs from the Capeman right now. it is a good album. i couldnt really appreciate it very much at first either, but now i reallly like it. i wish that the play would have done better. i would have loved to see it. hearing paul cuss is always fun too. he has such an exellent voice that it is fun to hear it in contrast with the lyrical content.

i could go on for days about all fo this stuff. its good to find other fans.

i bought Songs From The Capeman today.

it's strange. But it's growing on me really fast. I think it's good for me... i need to branch out more. I love the 50's/latin vibe.

t'sgood.

I love and appreciate Paul Simon with or without Art.His work is always prime and never quick to pass off.He will always be a song writer that I can't get my fill of.
