"The Sound of Silence", originally "The Sounds of Silence", is a vocal past the American music duo Simon & Garfunkel. The song was written by Paul Simon over several months in 1963 and 1964. A studio audience led to the duo signing a record deal with Columbia Records, and the original acoustic version of the vocal was recorded in March 1964 at Columbia Studios in New York Urban center and included on their debut album, Midweek Morning, 3 A.M. Released on October 19, 1964,[ii] the album was a commercial failure and led to the duo disbanding; Simon returned to England, and Art Garfunkel to his studies at Columbia University.

In 1965, the vocal began to concenter airplay at radio stations in Boston and throughout Florida. The growing airplay led Tom Wilson, the song'south producer, to remix the rails, overdubbing electric instruments and drums. This remixed version was released equally a unmarried in September 1965. Simon & Garfunkel were not informed of the song's remix until after its release. The song hit No. ane on the Billboard Hot 100 for the calendar week ending January one, 1966, leading the duo to reunite and hastily record their 2d anthology, which Columbia titled Sounds of Silence in an effort to capitalize on the song'due south success. The remixed single version of the song was included on this follow-up album.

It was featured in the 1967 picture The Graduate and was included on the film's soundtrack anthology. It was additionally released on the Mrs. Robinson EP in 1968, along with iii other songs from the motion picture: "Mrs. Robinson", "April Come She Will" and "Scarborough Fair/Anthem". The song was a top-ten striking in multiple countries worldwide, among them Australia, Austria, West Germany, Japan and the netherlands. Generally considered a classic folk rock vocal, the song was added to the National Recording Registry in the Library of Congress for beingness "culturally, historically, or aesthetically important" in 2012, forth with the rest of the Sounds of Silence anthology. Originally titled "The Sounds of Silence" on the album Wed Morn, 3 A.Thousand., the vocal was included in after compilations, beginning with the 1972 compilation album Simon and Garfunkel'due south Greatest Hits.[3]

Background [edit]

Origin and original recording [edit]

Simon and Garfunkel had become interested in folk music and the growing counterculture movement separately in the early 1960s. Having performed together previously under the name Tom and Jerry in the late 1950s, their partnership had since dissolved when they began attention college. In 1963, they regrouped and began performing Simon's original compositions locally in Queens. They billed themselves "Kane & Garr", after sometime recording pseudonyms, and signed up for Gerde's Folk Metropolis, a Greenwich Village club that hosted Monday night performances.[four] In September 1963, the duo performed iii new songs, amongst them "The Audio of Silence", getting the attending of Columbia Records producer Tom Wilson, a young African-American jazz musician who was also helping to guide Bob Dylan'due south transition from folk to rock.[5] [4] [half dozen] Simon convinced Wilson to let him and his partner take a studio audition; their performance of "The Sound of Silence" got the duo signed to Columbia.[vii]

The song's origin and basis are unclear, with some thinking that the song commented on the Assassination of John F. Kennedy, as the song was recorded three months afterwards the assassination, though Simon & Garfunkel had performed the song live every bit Kane & Garr ii months before the assassination.[viii] Simon wrote "The Sound of Silence" when he was 21 years old,[9] [10] with Simon explaining that the song was written in his bath, where he turned off the lights to ameliorate concentrate.[11] "The chief affair near playing the guitar, though, was that I was able to sit by myself and play and dream. And I was e'er happy doing that. I used to go off in the bathroom, considering the bathroom had tiles, so information technology was a slight echo bedroom. I'd turn on the faucet and then that water would run (I like that sound, it's very soothing to me) and I'd play. In the dark. 'Hello darkness, my old friend / I've come to talk with you lot again.'"[12] According to Garfunkel, the song was first developed in Nov, but Simon took three months to perfect the lyrics, which he claims were entirely written on Feb xix, 1964.[13] Garfunkel, introducing the vocal at a live performance (with Simon) in Harlem, June 1966, summed up the song'south significant equally "the disability of people to communicate with each other, non particularly intentionally but particularly emotionally, and then what you see around y'all are people unable to love each other."[11] In a recent memoir by Sandy Greenberg, equally reviewed in People magazine in December 2020, the song reflected the strong bail he had with his college buddy and best friend, Garfunkel, who adopted the special epithet 'Darkness' so as to empathise with Greenberg's sudden-onset incomprehension while in college.[fourteen]

To promote the release of their debut album, Wed Morning time, 3 A.K., the duo performed again at Folk Metropolis, also as 2 shows at the Gaslight Café, which went over poorly. Dave Van Ronk, a folk singer, was at the performances, and noted that several in the audience regarded their music as a joke.[15] "'Sounds of Silence' actually became a running joke: for a while there, it was simply necessary to first singing 'Hello darkness, my onetime friend ... ' and everybody would fissure upwardly."[16] Wed Morning, 3 AM sold just three,000 copies upon its October release, and its dismal sales led Simon to move to London, England.[17] While there, he recorded a solo album, The Paul Simon Songbook (1965), which features a rendition of the song, titled "The Sounds of Silence".[18]

The original recording of the song is in D♯ small, using the chords D♯k, C♯, B and F♯. Simon plays a guitar with a capo on the sixth fret, using the shapes for Am, Chiliad, F and C chords. He provides the lower vocals for harmony while Garfunkel sings the tune.[19] The vocal span goes from C♯iii to F♯4 in the vocal.[twenty]

Remix [edit]

The song's heavy airplay in Cocoa Beach, Florida, alerted Columbia to release the unmarried.

Wed Forenoon, three A.M. had been a commercial failure before producer Tom Wilson was alerted that radio stations had begun to play "The Sound of Silence" in spring 1965. A late-nighttime disc jockey at WBZ in Boston began to spin "The Sound of Silence" overnight, where it constitute a college demographic.[21] Students at Harvard and Tufts Academy responded well, and the song fabricated its way downwards the East Coast pretty much "overnight", "all the way to Cocoa Embankment, Florida, where it caught the students coming down for spring interruption."[21] A promotional executive for Columbia went to requite away free albums of new artists, and beach-goers were interested only in the artists behind "The Sound of Silence". He phoned the home office in New York, alerting them of its appeal.[22] An alternate version of the story states that Wilson attended Columbia's July 1965 convention in Miami, where the caput of the local sales branch raved near the song's airplay.[23]

Folk rock was beginning to make waves on popular radio, with songs like the Byrds' "Mr. Tambourine Man" charting high.[24] Wilson listened to the vocal several times, considering it too soft for a wide release.[21] Wilson had strong feeling almost editing the song with explicit rock overtones.[25] Every bit stated by Geoffrey Himes, "If Columbia Records producer Tom Wilson hadn't taken the initiative, without the singers' knowledge, to dub a rock rhythm department over their folk rendition, the vocal never would have get a cultural touchstone—a generation's shorthand for alienation".[26] Wilson had also experimented the previous December with overdubbing an electric ring over acoustic tracks by Bob Dylan; these recordings were never officially released, equally Dylan and Wilson opted to record new tracks with a alive band for what would go the album Bringing It All Dorsum Habitation.

On June 15, 1965, post-obit sessions for Dylan's "Like a Rolling Stone," Wilson retained guitarist Al Gorgoni and drummer Bobby Gregg from the Dylan sessions, calculation guitarist Vinnie Bell and bassist Bob Bushnell.[27] The tempo on the original recording was uneven, making information technology difficult for the musicians to keep the vocal in time.[24] Engineer Roy Halee employed a heavy repeat on the remix, which was a mutual trait of the Byrds' hits.[24] The single was first serviced to college FM rock stations, and a commercial single release followed on September 13, 1965.[23] The lack of consultation with Simon and Garfunkel on Wilson's remix was considering, although even so contracted to Columbia Records at the time, the musical duo at that time was no longer a "working entity".[24] [28] It was non uncommon at the time for producers to add instruments or vocals to previously existing recordings and re-release them as new entities.

In the autumn of 1965, Simon was in Denmark, performing at small clubs, and picked upwards a re-create of Billboard, as he had routinely done for several years.[23] Upon seeing "The Sound of Silence" in the Billboard Hot 100, he bought a copy of Cashbox and saw the same affair. Several days later on, Garfunkel excitedly called Simon to inform him of the unmarried'south growing success.[23] A re-create of the 7-inch single arrived in the mail the side by side mean solar day, and according to friend Al Stewart, "Paul was horrified when he first heard it ... [when the] rhythm section slowed down at 1 point so that Paul and Artie'due south voices could grab up."[25] Garfunkel was far less concerned about the remix, feeling conditioned to the process of trying to create a striking single: "It's interesting, I suppose it might do something, It might sell," he told Wilson.[29]

Lyrics [edit]

The lyrics of the song are written in five stanzas of seven lines each. Each stanza begins with a couplet describing the setting of the scene, followed past a couplet driving the action forrard and another couplet expressing the climactic idea of the verse, and closes with a one-line refrain related to the eponymous lyrics "the sound of silence". This structure is supported by a melodic contour, where the beginning and second lines are paired with the arpeggio A-C-E-D and a repeat a step lower, respectively. The arpeggio is then stretched to become C-Eastward-G-A-G and repeated twice in the second couplet. For the final 3 lines, the profile then leaps from C to the higher A, rises to the higher C, and then falls back to the A before singing the stretched arpeggio in reverse and finally retreating to the lower A.[19] The progress of the lyrics through its 5 stanzas places the singer into an incrementally increasing tension with an increasingly ambiguous "sound of silence". The irony of using the give-and-take "sound" to describe silence in the title lyrics suggests a paradoxical symbolism being used by the vocaliser, which the lyrics of the fourth stanza eventually identifies as "silence like a cancer grows". The "sound of silence" is symbolically taken also to denote the cultural alienation associated with much of the 1960s.[26] In the counterculture movements of the 1960s, the phrase "sound of silence" tin be compared to other more ordinarily used turns of phrase such as "turning a deaf ear" often associated with the detachment experienced with impersonal large governments.

The first stanza presents the vocalist as taking some relative solace in the peacefulness he associates with "darkness" which is submerged "within" the ambiguous sound of silence.[thirty] The second stanza has the effect of breaking into the silence with "the flash of a neon light" which leaves the singer "touched" by the enduring ambiguity of the sound of silence. In the third stanza, a "naked light" emerges as a vision of 10,000 people all caught within their own solitude and alienation without any one of them existence able to "disturb" the recurring sound of silence.

In the fourth stanza, the singer proclaims in a declarative voice that "silence like a cancer grows", though his words "similar silent raindrops cruel" without ever being heard against the by now cancerous audio of silence. The fifth stanza appears to culminate with the urgency raised by the declarative voice in the fourth stanza through the apparent triumph of a false "neon god". The false neon god is just challenged when a "sign flashed out its warning" that merely the words of the indigent written on "subway walls and tenement halls" could still "whisper" their truth against the recurring and ambiguous course of "the sound of silence".[6] The song has no lyrical bridge or change of key, and was written without whatever lyrical intro or outro to start or terminate the song.

And Artie said to me, "That Simon & Garfunkel, they must be having a great time." Considering at that place we were on a street corner [in my car in] Queens, smoking a joint. We didn't know what to practice with ourselves.[35]

For his part, Garfunkel had a dissimilar retentivity of the song's success:

We were in 50.A. Our manager called the states at the hotel we were staying at. Nosotros were both in the aforementioned room. We must have bunked in the same room in those days. I picked upwardly the telephone. He said, 'Well, congratulations. Adjacent week y'all will go from five to one in Billboard.' Information technology was fun.
