"The Audio of Silence", originally "The Sounds of Silence", is a vocal past the American music duo Simon & Garfunkel. The song was written by Paul Simon over several months in 1963 and 1964. A studio audition led to the duo signing a record deal with Columbia Records, and the original audio-visual version of the song was recorded in March 1964 at Columbia Studios in New York City and included on their debut anthology, Midweek Morning, 3 A.Thou. Released on Oct 19, 1964,[2] the album was a commercial failure and led to the duo disbanding; Simon returned to England, and Fine art Garfunkel to his studies at Columbia University.

In 1965, the song began to attract airplay at radio stations in Boston and throughout Florida. The growing airplay led Tom Wilson, the vocal'south producer, to remix the track, overdubbing electrical instruments and drums. This remixed version was released as a single in September 1965. Simon & Garfunkel were not informed of the song'due south remix until after its release. The song hitting No. ane on the Billboard Hot 100 for the week catastrophe Jan 1, 1966, leading the duo to reunite and hastily record their second album, which Columbia titled Sounds of Silence in an attempt to capitalize on the song's success. The remixed single version of the song was included on this follow-up album.

It was featured in the 1967 motion-picture show The Graduate and was included on the film's soundtrack album. It was additionally released on the Mrs. Robinson EP in 1968, along with three other songs from the moving-picture show: "Mrs. Robinson", "April Come up She Will" and "Scarborough Fair/Canticle". The song was a elevation-ten hit in multiple countries worldwide, among them Commonwealth of australia, Austria, West Germany, Japan and the Netherlands. More often than not considered a classic folk rock song, the song was added to the National Recording Registry in the Library of Congress for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically important" in 2012, forth with the rest of the Sounds of Silence album. Originally titled "The Sounds of Silence" on the anthology Wednesday Morning, 3 A.M., the vocal was included in afterwards compilations, beginning with the 1972 compilation album Simon and Garfunkel's Greatest Hits.[3]

Background [edit]

Origin and original recording [edit]

Simon and Garfunkel had become interested in folk music and the growing counterculture movement separately in the early 1960s. Having performed together previously under the proper noun Tom and Jerry in the belatedly 1950s, their partnership had since dissolved when they began attending college. In 1963, they regrouped and began performing Simon'southward original compositions locally in Queens. They billed themselves "Kane & Garr", later on one-time recording pseudonyms, and signed up for Gerde's Folk City, a Greenwich Hamlet social club that hosted Mon night performances.[4] In September 1963, the duo performed iii new songs, amidst them "The Sound of Silence", getting the attention of Columbia Records producer Tom Wilson, a young African-American jazz musician who was too helping to guide Bob Dylan'south transition from folk to rock.[five] [four] [6] Simon convinced Wilson to let him and his partner have a studio audience; their performance of "The Audio of Silence" got the duo signed to Columbia.[7]

The song's origin and basis are unclear, with some thinking that the song commented on the Assassination of John F. Kennedy, as the song was recorded three months after the bump-off, though Simon & Garfunkel had performed the song alive as Kane & Garr ii months earlier the assassination.[8] Simon wrote "The Sound of Silence" when he was 21 years quondam,[ix] [10] with Simon explaining that the song was written in his bathroom, where he turned off the lights to improve concentrate.[11] "The master thing near playing the guitar, though, was that I was able to sit by myself and play and dream. And I was always happy doing that. I used to go off in the bathroom, because the bathroom had tiles, and so it was a slight repeat chamber. I'd turn on the faucet then that water would run (I like that sound, it'due south very soothing to me) and I'd play. In the dark. 'Hello darkness, my old friend / I've come to talk with you lot again.'"[12] According to Garfunkel, the song was get-go developed in November, simply Simon took three months to perfect the lyrics, which he claims were entirely written on Feb xix, 1964.[13] Garfunkel, introducing the vocal at a live performance (with Simon) in Harlem, June 1966, summed upward the vocal's meaning as "the inability of people to communicate with each other, not especially intentionally but specially emotionally, so what you see around you are people unable to dearest each other."[11] In a recent memoir by Sandy Greenberg, as reviewed in People magazine in Dec 2020, the song reflected the potent bond he had with his college buddy and best friend, Garfunkel, who adopted the special epithet 'Darkness' then as to empathise with Greenberg's sudden-onset blindness while in higher.[fourteen]

To promote the release of their debut anthology, Wed Morning, three A.M., the duo performed once again at Folk City, also as two shows at the Gaslight Café, which went over poorly. Dave Van Ronk, a folk singer, was at the performances, and noted that several in the audience regarded their music equally a joke.[fifteen] "'Sounds of Silence' really became a running joke: for a while at that place, it was simply necessary to start singing 'Hello darkness, my former friend ... ' and everybody would crack up."[16] Wednesday Morning, 3 AM sold simply 3,000 copies upon its Oct release, and its dismal sales led Simon to move to London, England.[17] While there, he recorded a solo album, The Paul Simon Songbook (1965), which features a rendition of the vocal, titled "The Sounds of Silence".[18]

The original recording of the vocal is in D♯ minor, using the chords D♯m, C♯, B and F♯. Simon plays a guitar with a capo on the sixth fret, using the shapes for Am, K, F and C chords. He provides the lower vocals for harmony while Garfunkel sings the melody.[19] The vocal span goes from C♯iii to F♯4 in the song.[20]

Remix [edit]

The vocal'south heavy airplay in Cocoa Beach, Florida, alerted Columbia to release the single.

Wednesday Morning, three A.M. had been a commercial failure before producer Tom Wilson was alerted that radio stations had begun to play "The Sound of Silence" in bound 1965. A late-nighttime disc jockey at WBZ in Boston began to spin "The Sound of Silence" overnight, where information technology found a college demographic.[21] Students at Harvard and Tufts Academy responded well, and the song made its way down the E Coast pretty much "overnight", "all the way to Cocoa Beach, Florida, where information technology caught the students coming down for spring break."[21] A promotional executive for Columbia went to requite abroad free albums of new artists, and beach-goers were interested just in the artists behind "The Audio of Silence". He phoned the abode part in New York, alerting them of its appeal.[22] An alternate version of the story states that Wilson attended Columbia's July 1965 convention in Miami, where the caput of the local sales branch raved about the song's airplay.[23]

Folk rock was start to brand waves on pop radio, with songs like the Byrds' "Mr. Tambourine Human" charting high.[24] Wilson listened to the song several times, considering it too soft for a wide release.[21] Wilson had strong feeling about editing the song with explicit rock overtones.[25] As stated by Geoffrey Himes, "If Columbia Records producer Tom Wilson hadn't taken the initiative, without the singers' knowledge, to dub a stone rhythm section over their folk rendition, the song never would take get a cultural touchstone—a generation'southward autograph for alienation".[26] Wilson had likewise experimented the previous Dec with overdubbing an electric band over audio-visual tracks past Bob Dylan; these recordings were never officially released, equally Dylan and Wilson opted to record new tracks with a live band for what would become the anthology Bringing It All Back Domicile.

On June 15, 1965, following sessions for Dylan's "Like a Rolling Rock," Wilson retained guitarist Al Gorgoni and drummer Bobby Gregg from the Dylan sessions, adding guitarist Vinnie Bell and bassist Bob Bushnell.[27] The tempo on the original recording was uneven, making it difficult for the musicians to keep the vocal in fourth dimension.[24] Engineer Roy Halee employed a heavy echo on the remix, which was a common trait of the Byrds' hits.[24] The single was first serviced to college FM rock stations, and a commercial unmarried release followed on September 13, 1965.[23] The lack of consultation with Simon and Garfunkel on Wilson'due south remix was because, although nonetheless contracted to Columbia Records at the time, the musical duo at that time was no longer a "working entity".[24] [28] It was not uncommon at the fourth dimension for producers to add instruments or vocals to previously existing recordings and re-release them every bit new entities.

In the fall of 1965, Simon was in Denmark, performing at small clubs, and picked upwardly a re-create of Billboard, as he had routinely done for several years.[23] Upon seeing "The Audio of Silence" in the Billboard Hot 100, he bought a copy of Cashbox and saw the same thing. Several days later, Garfunkel excitedly called Simon to inform him of the single'due south growing success.[23] A re-create of the vii-inch single arrived in the postal service the side by side 24-hour interval, and according to friend Al Stewart, "Paul was horrified when he first heard it ... [when the] rhythm section slowed down at one point so that Paul and Artie's voices could catch up."[25] Garfunkel was far less concerned about the remix, feeling conditioned to the process of trying to create a hit single: "It's interesting, I suppose it might do something, Information technology might sell," he told Wilson.[29]

Lyrics [edit]

The lyrics of the song are written in v stanzas of seven lines each. Each stanza begins with a couplet describing the setting of the scene, followed by a couplet driving the action forward and some other couplet expressing the climactic idea of the verse, and closes with a ane-line refrain related to the eponymous lyrics "the sound of silence". This structure is supported by a melodic contour, where the first and second lines are paired with the arpeggio A-C-East-D and a echo a stride lower, respectively. The arpeggio is so stretched to become C-E-G-A-G and repeated twice in the 2d couplet. For the final 3 lines, the contour then leaps from C to the higher A, rises to the higher C, and so falls back to the A earlier singing the stretched arpeggio in opposite and finally retreating to the lower A.[nineteen] The progress of the lyrics through its five stanzas places the singer into an incrementally increasing tension with an increasingly ambiguous "sound of silence". The irony of using the word "sound" to depict silence in the title lyrics suggests a paradoxical symbolism being used by the singer, which the lyrics of the fourth stanza eventually identifies as "silence like a cancer grows". The "sound of silence" is symbolically taken as well to denote the cultural breach associated with much of the 1960s.[26] In the counterculture movements of the 1960s, the phrase "sound of silence" can be compared to other more than ordinarily used turns of phrase such as "turning a deaf ear" oft associated with the detachment experienced with impersonal large governments.

The first stanza presents the singer every bit taking some relative solace in the peacefulness he associates with "darkness" which is submerged "inside" the ambiguous audio of silence.[30] The second stanza has the effect of breaking into the silence with "the flash of a neon low-cal" which leaves the vocaliser "touched" past the enduring ambiguity of the sound of silence. In the tertiary stanza, a "naked light" emerges every bit a vision of 10,000 people all caught inside their ain confinement and alienation without any ane of them beingness able to "disturb" the recurring sound of silence.

In the 4th stanza, the singer proclaims in a declarative voice that "silence like a cancer grows", though his words "similar silent raindrops fell" without always existence heard against the past now cancerous audio of silence. The fifth stanza appears to culminate with the urgency raised by the declarative vox in the quaternary stanza through the apparent triumph of a false "neon god". The simulated neon god is only challenged when a "sign flashed out its warning" that only the words of the indigent written on "subway walls and tenement halls" could still "whisper" their truth against the recurring and ambiguous form of "the sound of silence".[half-dozen] The song has no lyrical span or modify of key, and was written without any lyrical intro or outro to start or end the vocal.

I had come dorsum to New York, and I was staying in my sometime room at my parents' firm. Artie was living at his parents' house, too. I recollect Artie and I were sitting there in my car one night, parked on a street in Queens, and the announcer [on the radio] said, "Number one, Simon & Garfunkel." And Artie said to me, "That Simon & Garfunkel, they must be having a great fourth dimension." Because at that place we were on a street corner [in my machine in] Queens, smoking a joint. We didn't know what to do with ourselves.[35]

For his role, Garfunkel had a different retentiveness of the song'south success:

Nosotros were in Fifty.A. Our managing director called the states at the hotel we were staying at. We were both in the same room. We must accept bunked in the same room in those days. I picked up the phone. He said, 'Well, congratulations. Side by side week you volition become from five to one in Billboard.' It was fun.
