Paul Simon Says He Is ‘Finished’ Writing Music
As he prepares to wrap up the final tour of an illustrious 60-year career in music, Paul Simon is also making it known that he’ll be ending another part of that career… music writing. Simon hasn’t written a new song in a few years. He’s recorded five studio albums with Art Garfunkel and made 14 solo albums. In an interview with NPR, Simon said: “Well I haven’t written a new song in a couple of years, now. I think after [the 2016 album] Stranger To Stranger, a funny thing happened when I finished – I literally felt like a switch clicked and I said, ‘I’m finished.'” When you watch some of your favorites start to step away from their music careers, does it make you realize how old we are becoming? What is Simon’s greatest piece of work?
