    You can tell Dave has a ton of respect for Paul. Paul seems to be quite a tender soul.

    Simon and Garfunkel created some of the best music that made up the soundtrack of my young life.

    i miss the days of the 'slow interview' where the guest is allowed to go in depth in their answers . this interview was a real treat in that respect .

    Personally, I feel that Paul Simon is one of the greatest lyric writer of the 20th Century!!
  • @oasisannie
    These precious, candid recordings of Paul Simon are such a treasure.
  • @ChrisHodges87
    I actually learned something about artists in this interview. Letterman was a good host and Simon was a great guest. What a pleasure.
  • @colleenm6852
    Paul and Art, both musical genius. Best harmonies
  • @MacDaddyRico
    Wherever he goes...whatever he writes...old or new... Paul Simon's music stands the test of time...

    The audience maybe didn't realise they were in the company of greatness in Paul Simon.

    Paul Simon is so intelligent and his humor is subtle, hidden behind feigned nervousness. In reality if you watch enough interviews you see he is a very humorous man. Love this interview, I watched it on Letterman when I heard he was going to be on the show back then he did not do a whole lot of interviews.
  • For me Simon is the best songwriter ever . His melodies, lyrics and arrangements played by the best studio cats is such a joy since decades and decades
  • Wow, have been listening to Simon and Garfunkel for decades. Saw Art in concert once (solo); great performance but didn't interact with the audience at all. Had never seen any interviews with Paul Simon; this interview was fabulous. What an eccentric, brilliant artist, also honest and somewhat vulnerable. There are no real song writers any more; what a pity.

    Everyone bangs on about Dylan but Simon is where it's at.

    He was so cute when he was young - hard to resist!
