《Homeward Bound 家的方向》简介
《Homeward bound》这首歌收录在Simon & Garfunkel第二张专辑《The sound of silence 沉默之声》。
写这首歌时,保罗赛门旅居於英国,还未成名的他在各地演唱,多半搭乘火车往返。
有一次班车误点,他在月台上等车时,一时思乡情切、灵感泉涌,写下了这首平淡但雋永动人的好歌。(摘自网络)
Simon & Garfunkel
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Simon & Garfunkel are an American singer-songwriter duo consisting of Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel. They formed the group Tom & Jerry in 1957, and had their first taste of success with the minor hit "Hey, Schoolgirl". As Simon & Garfunkel, the duo rose to fame in 1965, backed by the hit single "The Sounds of Silence". Their music was featured in the landmark film The Graduate, propelling them further into the public consciousness.
They are well known for their close vocal harmonies and sometimes unstable relationship. Their last album, Bridge over Troubled Water, was delayed several times due to artistic disagreements. They were among the most popular recording artists of the 1960s; among their biggest hits, in addition to "The Sounds of Silence", were "I Am a Rock", "Homeward Bound", "A Hazy Shade of Winter", "Mrs. Robinson", "Bridge over Troubled Water", "The Boxer", "Cecilia", and "Scarborough Fair/Canticle".
