Paul Simon singing? NO! His voice is nice and all but he certainly can't hit those high notes like Garfunkel! :)

LOL, well what you said agrees with the booklet that came with the CD.  In it the guy says he loves Simon's song-writing capabilities yet adores Garfunkel's singing.  So when I listened to Bridge and saw that Paul wrote it himself, I was going "wtf?"  :(.  Now everything's cleared up for me!  ;D

Paul Simon sings pretty well though. He does Cecilia the other song I like and a bunch of others. They also harmonize a lot. But Garfunkel's voice is way more powerful. I've heard Paul Simon sing Bridge Over Troubled Water actually. Thank God he let Garfunkel do it originally! Garfunkel can't write a song to save his life though. At least I'm not that I'm aware of!

Agreed Paul by himself is better.  My favs are "The Boy in the Bubble" and "All Around the World ar the Myth of Fingerprints"

 Ok, I'm going to say a tie between April Come She Will and The Boxer. SO breathtakingly beautiful, the both of them.

 As for Paul solo...geez, there are tons. I'll go with Slip Sliding Away and American Tune for now (and I love it when Art sings American Tune on the live in NYC album...)
