Hazy Shade of Winter - Simon & Garfunkel

El que una vez fuera el dúo Tom & Jerry y una de las parejas más influyentes de la música popular reinó en los 60 con temas como este Hazy Shade of Winter, que cuenta con algunas versiones de renombre como la realizada por The Bangles (un cañonazo).

Normalmente, Paul Simon se encargaba de las composiciones, las guitarras y las voces de acompañamiento (más graves) y Art Garfunkel interpretaba la voz principal y melódica.

En su corta carrera de 6 años tuvieron tiempo para realizar hasta bandas sonoras, como la de El graduado que fue todo un éxito (atentos a las guitarras en Mrs. Robinson) y disfrutaron de un reconocimiento masivo gracias a temas como The Sounds of Silence, The Boxer, I am a Rock, Cecilia, If I Could, Bridge Over Troubled Water, America y algunos otros.

Time, time, time

See what's become of me

While I looked around for my possibilities

I was so hard to please

Look around

Leaves are brown

And the sky is a hazy shade of winter

Hear the Salvation Army band

Down by the riverside

It's bound to be a better ride than what you've got planned

Carry a cup in your hand

Look around

Leaves are brown

And the sky is a hazy shade of winter

Hang onto your hopes, my friend

That's an easy thing to say, but if your hopes should pass away

Simply pretend

That you can build them again

Look around

Grass is high

Fields are ripe

It's the springtime of my life

Seasons change with the scenery

Weaving time in a tapestry

Won't you stop and remember me?

Look around

Leaves are brown

And the sky is a hazy shade of winter

Look around

Leaves are brown

There's a patch of snow on the ground

Look around

Leaves are brown

There's a patch of snow on the ground

Look around

Leaves are brown

There's a patch of snow on the ground

America - Neil Diamond

FAR, we've been travelin in FAR

Without a home, But not without a star

Free, only one can be free

We huddle close, and hang on to a dream

On the boats and on the planes, They come into America

Never looking back again, They come into America

Home...though it seems so far away

And we'll travel in the light today,

in the eye of the storm...in the eye of the storm

Home...to a new and a shiny place

Make our beds and we'll say our grace

Freedoms light burnng warm, freedoms light burning warm

Everywhere around the world, they come into Ameria

Every time that flags on the furled, they come into America

Got a dream to take them there, they come into America

Got a dream they come to share, they come into America

4x:

They come in to America

4x:

Today

My country 'tis of thee (today)

Sweet land of liberty (today)

Of thee I sing (today)

Of thee I sing (today)

Today, today, today, today, today

A horse with no name - America

On the first part of the journey

I was looking at all the life

There were plants and birds and rocks and things

There was sand and hills and rings

The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz

And the sky with no clouds

The heat was hot and the ground was dry

But the air was full of sound

I've been through the desert on a horse with no name

It felt good to be out of the rain

In the desert you can remember your name

'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain

La, la

After two days in the desert sun

My skin began to turn red

After three days in the desert fun

I was looking at a river bed

And the story it told of a river that flowed

Made me sad to think it was dead

You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name

It felt good to be out of the rain

In the desert you can remember your name

'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain

La, la

After nine days I let the horse run free

'Cause the desert had turned to sea

There were plants and birds and rocks and things

there was sand and hills and rings

The ocean is a desert with it's life underground

And a perfect disguise above

Under the cities lies a heart made of ground

But the humans will give no love

You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name

It felt good to be out of the rain

In the desert you can remember your name

'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain

La, la

America - Simon & Garfunkel

Let us be lovers, we'll marry our fortunes together

I've got some real estate here in my bag

So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner's pies

And we walked off to look for America

Cathy, I said as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh

Michigan seems like a dream to me now

It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw

I've gone to look for America

Laughing on the bus, playing games with the faces

She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy

I said, be careful, his bowtie is really a camera

Toss me a cigarette, I think there's one in my raincoat

We smoked the last one an hour ago

So I looked at the scenery

She read her magazine

And the moon rose over an open field

Cathy, I'm lost, I said though I knew she was sleeping

And I'm empty and aching and I don't know why

Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike

They've all come to look for America

All come to look for America

All come to look for America
