Which member of this iconic duo of the 60s and 70s in your opinion had more musical talent/artistry?
My fav of their songs is the one that goes:

Hello Darkness my old friend,
Jesus love you more that you will know,
Like a bridge over troubled water,
Heaven holds a place for those who pray

@Qwerty14 The Sounds of Silence. It's my favorite too. But I never heard that verse before. Are you making it up? This is the one that I know.


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
@SW-User I fused Sound of Silence with Mrs Robinson and Bridge Over Troubled Water. All 3 are great songs but Sound of Silence is the best :)

Love them both...together & individually, but have to give the edge to Paul Simon because of his ability as a guitarist & songwriter.

Art was a better Singer, Paul wrote most of the songs, they were a harmonious duo. Them and The Carpenters, best duos ever.

@therighttothink50 Don't forget the Everly Brothers.🍀
They were both very talented. Simon had the brains and Garfunkel had the heart.

Garfunkel is clearly the better singer. Simon is much better at writing songs.

I think both excel at certain things, Art is a superior vocalist, Paul is a superior songwriter.

Paul Simon's mother told him to team up with him because Garfunkel could sing and he couldnt
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
Garfunkel is a better singer while Simon is a much better poet.
Simon was the brains of the duo, while Garfunkel was the soul.

I think Art voted twice in your poll
I enjoy both very much. I have their albums as a duo and their solo work.

Simon continued to make music after they split, implying Simon was the brains/driving force behind the music in the 1st place - make any analogy to the Beetles, Ringo and George - I thing George only produced one song in 40 years after they split, look at Ringo ... THEN LOOK AWAY !!!
