I think "Sounds Of Silence" was actually first recorded as an acoustic song in 1964, with a new electric backing track (heard in this clip) added in 1965. It was this "electric" version that became a worldwide hit and made Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel international superstars. Several Simon and Garfunkel songs appeared in "The Graduate", including "Mrs. Robinson", which I think it their all-time biggest hit.

Hello darkness, my old friend I've come to talk with you again Because a vision softly creeping Left its seeds while I was sleeping And the vision that was planted in my brain Still remains Within the sound of silence In restless dreams I walked alone Narrow streets of cobblestone 'Neath the halo of a street lamp I turned my collar to the cold and damp When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light That split the night And touched the sound of silence And in the naked light I saw Ten thousand people, maybe more People talking without speaking People hearing without listening People writing songs that voices never share And no one dared Disturb the sound of silence "Fools, " said I, "You do not know Silence, like a cancer, grows Hear my words that I might teach you Take my arms that I might reach you" But my words, like silent raindrops fell And echoed in the wells, of silence And the people bowed and prayed To the neon god they made And the sign flashed out its warning In the words that it was forming And the sign said, "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls And tenement halls" And whispered in the sounds of silence Give it nice and loud for Mister Myles Kennedy

As Paul Harvey used to say....and now for the rest of the story. HELLO DARKNESS MY OLD FRIEND, a Simon and Garfunkel song inspired by a College roommate who went blind - this reveals untold story. Enjoy and then listen to the song itself. Enough said. IT is one of the best-loved songs of all time. Simon & Garfunkel's hit, "The Sound Of Silence" topped the US charts and went platinum in the UK. It was named among the 20 most performed songs of the 20th century, included in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time, and provided the unforgettable soundtrack to 1967 film classic "The Graduate". But to one man The Sound Of Silence means much more than just a No 1 song on the radio with its poignant opening lines: "Hello Darkness my old friend, I've come to talk with you again. "Sanford "Sandy" Greenberg is Art Garfunkel's best friend, and reveals in a moving new memoir, named after that lyric, that the song was a touching tribute to their undying bond, and the singer's sacrifice that saved Sandy's life when he unexpectedly lost his sight. "He lifted me out of the grave," says Sandy, aged 79, who recounts his plunge into sudden blindness, and how Art Garfunkel's selfless devotion gave him reason to live again. Sandy and Arthur, as Art was then known, met during their first week as students at the prestigious Columbia University in New York. "A young man wearing an Argyle sweater and corduroy pants and blond hair with a crew cut came over and said, 'Hi, I'm Arthur Garfunkel', "Sandy recalls. They became roommates, bonding over a shared taste in books, poetry and music. "Every night Arthur and I would sing. He would play his guitar and I would be the DJ. The air was always filled with music." "Still teenagers, they made a pact to always be there for each other in times of trouble. "If one was in extremis, the other would come to his rescue," says Sandy. They had no idea their promise would be tested so soon. Just months later, Sandy recalls: "I was at a baseball game and suddenly my eyes became cloudy and my vision became unhinged. Shortly after that darkness descended. "Doctors diagnosed conjunctivitis, assuring it would pass. But days later Sandy went blind, and doctors realized that glaucoma had destroyed his optic nerves. Sandy was the son of a rag-and-bone man. His family, Jewish immigrants in Buffalo, New York, had no money to help him, so he dropped out of college, gave up his dream of becoming a lawyer, and plunged into depression. "I wouldn't see anyone, I just refused to talk to anybody," says Sandy. "And then unexpectedly Arthur flew in, saying he had to talk to me. He said, 'You're gonna come back, aren't you?' "I said,: 'No. There's no conceivable way.' "He was pretty insistent, and finally said, 'Look, I don't think you get it. I need you back there. That's the pact we made together: we would be there for the other in times of crises. I will help you'." Together they returned to Columbia University, where Sandy became dependent on Garfunkel's support. Art would walk Sandy to class, bandage his wounds when he fell, and even filled out his graduate school applications. Garfunkel called himself "Darkness" in a show of empathy. The singer explained: "I was saying, 'I want to be together where you are, in the black'. "Sandy recalls: "He would come in and say, 'Darkness is going to read to you now.' “Then he would take me to class and back. He would take me around the city. He altered his entire life so that it would accommodate me." Garfunkel would talk about Sandy with his high-school friend Paul Simon, from Queens, New York, as the folk rock duo struggled to launch their musical careers, performing at local parties and clubs. Though Simon wrote the song, the lyrics to The Sound of Silence are infused with Garfunkel's compassion as Darkness, Sandy's old friend. Guiding Sandy through New York one day, as they stood in the vast forecourt of bustling Grand Central Station, Garfunkel said that he had to leave for an assignment, abandoning his blind friend alone in the rush-hour crowd, terrified, stumbling and falling. "I cut my forehead" says Sandy. "I cut my shins. My socks were bloodied. I had my hands out and bumped into a woman's breasts. It was a horrendous feeling of shame and humiliation. "I started running forward, knocking over coffee cups and briefcases, and finally I got to the local train to Columbia University. It was the worst couple of hours in my life." Back on campus, he bumped into a man, who apologized. "I knew that it was Arthur's voice," says Sandy. "For a moment I was enraged, and then I understood what happened: that his colossally insightful, brilliant yet wildly risky strategy had worked." Garfunkel had not abandoned Sandy at the station, but had followed him the entire way home, watching over him. "Arthur knew it was only when I could prove to myself I could do it that I would have real independence," says Sandy. "And it worked, because after that I felt that I could do anything. "That moment was the spark that caused me to live a completely different life, without fear, without doubt. For that I am tremendously grateful to my friend." Sandy not only graduated, but went on to study for a master's degree at Harvard and Oxford. While in Britain he received a phone call from his friend - and with it the chance to keep his side of their pact. Garfunkel wanted to drop out of architecture school and record his first album with Paul Simon, but explained: "I need $400 to get started." Sandy, by then married to his high school sweetheart, says: "We had $404 in our current account. I said, 'Arthur, you will have your cheque.' "It was an instant reaction, because he had helped me restart my life, and his request was the first time that I had been able to live up to my half of our solemn covenant." The 1964 album, Wednesday Morning, 3 AM, was a critical and commercial flop, but one of the tracks was The Sound Of Silence, which was released as a single the following year and went to No 1 across the world. "The Sound Of Silence meant a lot, because it started out with the words 'Hello darkness' and this was Darkness singing, the guy who read to me after I returned to Columbia blind," says Sandy. Simon & Garfunkel went on to have four smash albums, with hits including Mrs Robinson, The Boxer, and Bridge Over Troubled Waters. Amazingly, Sandy went on to extraordinary success as an inventor, entrepreneur, investor, presidential adviser and philanthropist. The father of three, who launched a $3million prize to find a cure for blindness, has always refused to use a white cane or guide dog. "I don't want to be 'the blind guy'," he says. "I wanted to be Sandy Greenberg, the human being." Six decades later the two men remain best friends, and Garfunkel credits Sandy with transforming his life. With Sandy, "my real life emerged," says the singer. "I became a better guy in my own eyes, and began to see who I was - somebody who gives to a friend. "I blush to find myself within his dimension. My friend is the gold standard of decency." Says Sandy: "I am the luckiest man in the world"

+EccentricSage Wow thanks for this incite. I was just blown away by the lyrics, never knew... I also heard a version before this, where it's just a guitar that comes in after the vocal harmony intro. I immediately knew what you were talking about, that version didn't have lyrics, so I came here. When I was listening to the original I quickly noticed the lack of percussion on and extra guitar tracks, and wondered why that wasn't the more featured version of the song, because it seemed so much more rich with flavor. I am a musician myself, and it's really inspirational for me to hear a song I am familiar with and finally read the lyrical content is so intricate and well thought out it upstages the music to the point it could be read as a poem and still hold it's value to impact the intellect. Thanks again, for the lesson.

[@twoimse]

Actually to appreciate the song, you need to get a copy of, and watch the 1967 classic film, "The Graduate", featuring Dustin Hoffman in his very first motion pictures release. The film was stated to be ahead of it time--AND it made the song "The Sound Of Silence" very popular. It also featured a couple of other songs that were well listened to for quite a long time, but is not played as much because of today's lesser value in musical taste. These songs include the suggestive "Mrs. Robinson", and a twist on the tongue with "Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme".

[@loveinspired7]

Sandy Greenberg's greeeting to Art Garfunkel at Columbia University, "Hello, Darkness," after Sandy went blind. Art helped his friend in college and would call himself Darkness every time he read to his friend, Sandy. He even helped Sandy to realize that the blindness could not stop him from becoming independent. Years later when Sandy was at Oxford, he lent Art $400 to record his first album with Simon, which gave us the beautiful song, Sound of Silence.

My name is Julio and I was raised in queens, two subway stops from Queens Blvd. I have an affinity for Paul Simon that has quietly developed over the last decade or so of my life. Funny enough in my elementary school years I often had school teachers, whenever they noticed me, start singing "Me and Julio down by the school yard" I had no idea what they were referring to. Honestly it would often freak me out, one teacher in particular (Mr. Goodman who was my fifth grade teacher) vividly stands out in the abyss of my metamemories. Corona Queens, Lemon Ice King, Flushing Meadows park, PS 19, New York Mets e.g are also vividly engrained memories of my childhood. I don't have many regrets in life but if I could I'd go back and tell myself, kid take a breather, enjoy all of this, don't rush it, now go hug your dad and tell him how much you love him.

[@drajaydoshi]

Such a beautiful song!!!!!

[@zuvilio4297]

Super klasična stara pjesma!

I learned this song eons ago in chorus class when I was in Middle School. It stirred my heart back when I was young and clueless and now more than 50 years later, it still stirs my heart in an unexplainable way.❤️

[@javemacasarte9253]

I'm an old man and I can finally see them as children. What is the meaning of life? It is to become God. Become the light you have inside. Nevermind the foolish artists. They have no clue.

[@goprojoe7449]

In our time we have no idea of art, we think art is more real than we are fake... it is all fake..... are was real before I was born, we said thing which were important....fuck it all is to burn it down but what is art without you?

I feel like this song telling the future even though this song was wroted a long time ago,for example in the lyric "people talkin' without speakin'" is now possible because we have technology and social media..

[@maritown]

And not only that, but people lack meaningful conversations nowadays.

[@rougeclips9438]

Maria Townsend and there’s so much protest going on without realizing that the ones who organize them have their own ulterior motives, they chant and protest without hearing each other out, there no civility anymore...

+Traid1797 Television and media was already starting to do then what mobiles have done now. They started to see the effects of what was happening, its just become even more relevant now than before.
