“They Were Getting Ready To Sing I Believe Slip Slidin’ Away, And Someone In The Stands Yelled Out

horrible toxic old men who have been in love with each other for at least a decade is literally the only ship dynamic that matters

Can you imagine us years from today

Sharing a park bench quietly

How terribly strange to be seventy

Old friends

Memory brushes the same years

Silently sharing the same fears

_________________________

Stranger to stranger

If we met for the first time, this time

Could you imagine us

Falling in love again?

Still believing that love endures

All the carnage and useless detours

Oh I love you, I love you, I love you…

“He bugs me. He’s a wise-ass. But he’s also very funny - and laughs are a great tonic in life - and he’s my favorite musician. I’ve had shows where backstage I’ve hated him. And vice versa. But then we’ll be on stage and the three of us make this sound - me, him and the guitar, and we’re eleven once more, and in love all over again.”

— Art Garfunkel

“We didn’t talk to each other from the ages of 17 to 21… We were best friends. The love affair stopped with a bruise. People fall out. What else is new? I got over it because Paul was so damn good. I ran into him in Queens and he was so funny and smart that I dropped my old barrier, and when we started working together again we knew we were onto something. Paul started bringing the songs to me at Columbia College, where I was studying architecture. I was the midwife, pulling out and cherishing the babies as Paul kept giving birth.”

— Art Garfunkel

So LGBTQ+ is now completely illegal in Russia. I wonder if anyone going to talk about that. I'm so tired
