this is a poll to decide which is the best track on bridge over troubled water by simon and garfunkel

the only living boy was like the biggest revelation.it has this liquid bassline that kind of dances around as the whole thing floats on perfectly modulated reverb, a choir in a wind tunnel this tender paean to friendship the simple chords on the acoustic guitar glistening, something majestic and glacial, a song about brothers.

love this. and the idea of the wind tunnel -- I can never decide if those voices are in closed or open space, moving or still, but that image works.

of all the amazing moments on this album though, on revisit nothing gets me like the addition of "up in my bedroom" on "Cecilia," just beaming, superfluous beauty

that wind tunnel choir very sgt pepper's to me, lucy in the sky
