Not sure that is the best song on the record, though, a great song.
It cuts right to the bone.

Not sure what it is but I just can't appreciate Nick Drake. That's an enjoyable enough piece of music and I get his place in musical history and all that, I just find he bores me to tears.
Apologies, not trying to be a dick or anything, its just that oftentimes "being a dick" comes natural to me. Or so I've been told.

Oh man, Dave plays PRS? Kinda disappointing. I know that's pretentious of me, but they're cornball guitars.

I haven’t listened to that album in probably 20+ years but I have a distinct memory of really loving it and listening to it a lot in the 2000-2004 range of time, which coincided with a long delve into the Velvet Underground (not that they really sound anything alike), and Pink Floyd (also very different from the other two). I have no idea why I moved on, but it’s all stored away in some memory bank of the time, ready to be enjoyed again whenever.

Not even The Rhythm of the Saints, the South American counterpart to Graceland?

Literally the two Paul Simon albums I know.
They're the only two you need, really.
But I do like some of his later career albums. I love Surprise, the album he did with Brain Eno. So Beautiful or So What also has some great songs on it.
