Yesterday I heard this program which examines the lyrics of Paul Simon and his music, and how they work so well together.
It seems as if the whole world is taking a lead from us on this site as we discuss lyrics and music, the links, and what makes a good lyric 'work'.
It's the program from Tuesday 12th Feb, the second segment. The audio download doesn't include the Paul Simon section for copyright reasons, but you can 'listen now' on the streaming audio option. This is only available for a limited time (about 10 days).
Paul Simon segment starts at 20 mins 20 secs.
