Lorne Michaels' influence on culture knows no limits. He's even a matchmaker.

[@HomeAtLast501]

She wasn't aware of too many things, she knows what she knows, if you know what she means.

[@taurus2leo]

Ahhh I see what you did there 🙃

[@7ebr830]

Dammit! You beat me to it. Well done. 👏

[@vjr5261]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@privatepenguin3137]

"Circle" is an amazing Edie Brickell song...my favorite.

[@rubicon-oh9km]

Incredible song.

[@maddymud]

Me too. I used to sing it all the time

[@steffnic13]

Used to be on constant rotation of my Walkman for my mixed tapes and mix CDs I’d burn and listen as I was jogging. Such a great song.

[@ddellwo]

As a committed introvert, I agree………!!!!!!!

[@robertfindley921]

Tallent has its privilages. Well done Paul!

[@dvdglassner]

I was at that Bottom Line show! It was great.

[@JoeBlow-Knoxbaddrivers]

She was so big in New York in that time!

[@ianrobinson4200]

What? I remember her song 'What I am' and a couple of others and I genuinely had no idea they were married.

[@khanmckay8312]

Happy Birthday Paul 🎂

[@AaronSmith-kt2fs]

Edie Brickell is the most criminally underrated singer-songwriter of all time! She has this whole amazing catalog of albums full of fantastic music that I don’t think anyone’s heard (except me, I’ve listened to them 8 million times). Anyway I love that she’s married to Paul Simon. What a couple!

[@SarkoMontaug]

me too! (other than the Steve Martin ones) I know her albums inside and out. Soundtrack of my life since I was in middle school. I'm so grateful to her and the many musicians she's worked with all through the years.

[@paladro]

lots of people make good music

[@dionisioiacobelli6689]

America's greatest songwriter .

[@PapagenoMF]

Arguably the greatest songwriter of the last half of the 20th century. He has produced consistently good music, over time, longer than McCartney or Wilson.

[@dempseyarmy7524]

And then she slapped the shit out of him when he got out of line!

[@Luke_E_Babyy]

Paul Simon I’d great, and that statement is an understatement.

[@neilouellette3004]

Married for over 30 years, his third. He's 81 and she's 57.

[@lustforkicks7392]

Now he's 82 as of October 13. A twenty-four year age difference is quite a big gap, but the bottom line is, they love one another and they are happy together. Plus they are both incredibly talented musicians and singers! ~Dutch

[@Tom-xn8nn]

When paul visits his in laws they have to call him MR. Because he's probably older than them

[@mellow5123]

I want to hear more about their time together. Such an interesting coupling.

[@jbt6007]

Some high's and lows for sure. Police were called to their house for a "domestic" incident a few years back.

[@Drnaynay]

Steve Martin is their neighbour too!! She performs with him and the three of them put out some stuff together during Covid

[@toothbrush5190]

They beat the crap out of each other. Often

[@hello_its_me.]

Good Times Gimme some of that...and Windows 95.

[@sugarjoe50]

Not that it matters since it no longer exists; the Bottom Line was on 4th St.

[@kendallevans4079]

I've been there and CBGB's and I get them mixed up....

[@nelsonlugo45]

Frequented it, LoneStar & CBGB. Lived on White by the Mudd. Great times😊

[@situated4]

Still married. That says something.

[@stacyg585]

They've had some low moments though, including a physical fight that resulted in both of them getting injuries.

Yes, waiting for the reading of the will. 🤪😜

Everyone does, he just has the ability to make it happen.

[@rexjones1109]

And let's give all the credit to Paul Simon for breaking up the group . . . Edie Brickell and The New Bohemians

[@HanifBarnwell]

😂

[@jakezonis17]

😢 such a good band

[@harrodsongs]

Edie Brickell & New Bohemians. (No "The.")

[@rexjones1109]

You took the time to post that? Seriously???@@harrodsongs

[@lavaclaw1228]

And introduce her to a banjo player

[@phillippitts6294]

I worked an Edie Brickell and the new bohemian’s show. Early 90s , Columbia,SC

[@bikerjon8934]

wow

[@rexjones1109]

A notice to all bands that make it big . . have a back up plan . .because the lead singer will have plans to go solo from the very beginning . . . . .

[@erichinton5774]

As a musician myself, thanks for the tip😊

[@hvymettle]

Choke me in the shallow water before I get too deep.

Foreshadowing?

[@user-xp2yx5mx7p]

Sweet.

[@jorgeluisarangurenbardelli6440]

[@sethfriedman2462]

She told DL she mostly made sandwiches for the band.

[@Photo4Corners]

So nice she hangs out with her grandfather daily.

[@musicdunc]

27 years difference, so no. Do your math.

[@nicoleorton5299]

Yes, she is eternally beautiful (and bursting with talent), and Paul is a hunk of talent and class. They might be the coolest couple I’ve ever seen in my life. I’m in love with they’re “Mr. Lee”!

[@markhill9275]

Paul actually had the hughest crush on Judith Durham. He even wrote a aong for The Seekers just to impress her. Wasnt one of her fav songs to sing though.

[@beachlifebestlife]

i read they were both arrested on domestic charges theres real lov for you

[@johnsilva9139]

At certain times and at certain angles she resembles Art Garfunkle.

[@toothbrush5190]

I heard it was at a boxing event…

[@thegracienetwork7847]

Paul Simon was her second choice. Jerry Garcia was her first

[@kendallevans4079]

Jerry was stoned 24/7...doesn't make for great dates

[@thomasalexander8499]

WOW! He's so joyless (Paul Simon) but what a song writer and the fact that he's been with Edie Brickell so long speaks volumes!

[@DarkeningSkies1]

He’s not joyless, he’s 81. 😉

[@MC-810]

What is joyless about this?

[@danielevans9379]

I think he’s just very mellow. I wouldn’t describe it as joyless.

[@purplemicrodot58]

He's a folksinger. You're mistaking chill for joylessness. He's always been that chill.

[@Richard-wp6ep]

Maybe married to a hot young woman will wear you out

[@mattzobian]

Howard is now just a fawning celebrity interviewer.

[@stevec3892]

Best part about him .. Best interviewer

[@lindstrom34]

And that's why we love him

[@Richard-wp6ep]

I would too if I had access to my favorite celebs

[@nelsonlugo45]

Time tames

[@idanwillenchik3050]

They actually hit each other and the police was called.

[@nb7466]

Money that's how she met him

[@saraeastman40]

He really thinks she went after him for him and not because of his fame. Hilarious

[@Richard-wp6ep]

Maybe be because of his genius?

[@hyzercreek]

She knew of him because of his fame. But the Son of Sam was also famous, so was John Gotti

[@ivanconnolly7332]

In a kindergarten?.

[@thedude5599]

im sure his 200 million net worth helped her find him more attractive. Thing is she stayed with him so there must be something there.
