Almost Prophetic?... Sound of Silence - Simon and Garfunkel - Smart Phone Addictions

Almost Prophetic?... 40+ years after Sound of Silence was recorded in 1964. This song's tone and lyrics feel so very relevant to the world of the 'Smart Phone' that now controls the lives of many in these times we now live...

"The Sound of Silence" (originally "The Sounds of Silence") is a song by the American folk rock duo Simon & Garfunkel, written by Paul Simon. The duo's studio audition of the song led to a record deal with Columbia Records, and the original acoustic version was recorded in March 1964 at Columbia's 7th Avenue Recording Studios in New York City for their debut album, Wednesday Morning, 3 A.M., released that October to disappointing sales. An overdubbed electric remix was released the following year and went to number one on the Billboard singles chart.
