I remember as a young 19 year old in 1967 on my way to Vietnam in a U.S. Navy ship. Singing this new song and already wishing I was homeward bound. Finally in 1968 when my tour of duty ended came back to America, San Francisco, I kissed the ground when I got off the ship. I was home. Here I am age 75 and how this song brings back memories. Where did the last 55 years go to. One moment I'm a kid and the next moment I'm an elderly man.

Paul Simon wrote this classic at Widnes train station in the north west of England. This is a fact that Widnes is proud of. They have a plaque in the station and it is played during their rugby league team matches. However they don’t get what Paul is trying to say. Basically he would rather be home rather than the shithole he found himself in. Having been born in Widnes I can only concur Paul.

Homeward Bound, I wish I was, Homeward Bound, Home where my thought's escaping, Home where my music's playing. Home where my love lies waiting silently for me. Every day's an endless stream, Of cigarettes and magazines, M m m And each town looks the same to me, The movies and the factories, And every stranger's face I see, Reminds me that I long to be. Homeward Bound, Oh, I wish I was, Homeward Bound, Home where my thought's escaping, Home where my music's playing, Home where my love lies waiting silently for me. Tonight I'll sing my songs again, I'll play the game and pretend, M m m But all my words come back to me, In shades of mediocrity, Like emptiness in harmony, I need someone to comfort me. Homeward Bound, I wish I was, Homeward Bound, Bound, Home where my thought's escaping, Home where my music's playing, Home where my love lies waiting silently for me.

Simon and Garfunkel right there with the Everly Brothers.... Heaven on earth. And I'm the speck on the wall. It's been great to live in their century.

What sounds just as beautiful as their harmony is when they sing in unison. So perfectly matched.

I was so lucky to listen to them in Offenbach in 1982 - a concert I will never forget, it was really brilliant.

The first time I heard this song was in 1965 at my elder sister’s 21st birthday party. I can’t explain the emotions but I still feel them now some 60 years later. Strange things that music do to us all

Can't think of any song this duo played that doesn't make me feel good inside. This is one. Homeward bound, yes I wish I was homeward bound.

I feel your pain I served early on during that era, I never went to V N but, when someone says thank you for “your service” it brings a lump in my throat when I think of all of those on “ the wall” never got any recognition.

I grew up with Simon and Garfunkel. I sang the songs during my newspaper delivery era. I hope someone was inlfluenced (probably not by me singing but the songs are so strong) so the music will spread throughout time......... They sang the anthems of a complete generation (or 2). We should cherish this music that was sang with such beautifull harmony and social relevance.

Encore merci pour cette vidéo. A regarder et écouter sans modération en 2024 comme en 1962. 62 ans et toujours pas une ride (sauf sur mon visage) ! Ce morceau est sur ma playlist depuis 2008 et n'est pas prêt d'en sortir.
