Reviews for You Can Call Me Al Lyrics

Paul Simon you are one of my favorite singers and i am 11 years old so you are still a hit.My favourite songs are diamonds on the soles of her shoes , you can call me al , homelless, the obvious child and me and julio down by the school yard I listen to them over and over again there the best so thanks for the great songs.

Sometimes I think Simon is playing with us. Close study of these lyrics seems to indicate they're just words thrown on a page. Same thing with Dylan. Study "Desolation Row" sometime. Once the drugs wear off, it appears to be gibberish.

really its a great song and i like it so much but still one thing confuse me , i dont knwo wht he wants to say with "soft in the middle" i would be pleased if some one inlight me by e_mail amkhar@hotmail.fr and thanx

Hy people This song is Great Isn't. It's such a Feel-Great about yourself song AINT it. I first heard it on the radio going baby shopping. Then i was thinking when it is Crying an Whaling i can Sing him this song cause it brings me RIGHT back up. So Guys u are Still Great! Have a GOOD one!:)
Love Danni

I love this song! I first heard it a few years ago at a University of Florida basketball game (it's kind of a theme song/tradition for the b-ball games). Anyways, my husband I have been listening to it for the last week or so pretty consistently and I can't get it out of my head! I keep humming, bouncing around the house to the beat, and blasting it in the car. It still hasn't gotten old yet. Great song!!!

yeah the video is kind of ambivalent sad but uplifting its like hey lifes crazy and rough but its so beautiful to i think the song also speaks of the different moods and faces that we see life in this crazy corroded conflicting culture that loves all the great stuff in life and the garbage that comes with it, and helps us stick to the better parts, 1

Images, message and a great river of rythym to flow upon. Yeah, ...why I am soft in the middle, I've got a short little span of attention. Mr. Simon, you have left the world a much better place!

Paul Simon is realy what we call ARTISTIC ARTIST compare to others that we should call BUSINESS ARTISTS. Paul Simon will stay forever as a reference.
Thank you Paul!

that's a pretty story
and you can call me all is a great song, I have to admit I laugh every time I see the video, even when it's the 15 time I watch it... it's kind of sad, but I don't know, it's encouraging somehow.

As others have said, I've also been listening to this song for years. Paul Simon's songs are so atmospheric somehow and just never date. I don't know why but I often picture New York in the winter when I listen to them. I love this one and "Hearts and Bones", "Graceland", "Me and Julio down by the school yard"... etc etc. A great talent.

Been listening to this song for years. It's my favorite song by Paul Simon...this and "Diamonds On The Soles Of Her Shoes."

Believe me this song is a real classic and I love it. I will listen to it over and over again.I will never get tired of listenning to it, it such a wonderful song to listen to.

i agree with Sebastian,this song i can listen over and over again.two days this song is the hit of the day in one radio station in Belgrade in Serbia.

I think this song will endure the great test of time to time indefinite .This is a great track one can listen over and over again

It's amazing that the music for this song can be so happy, and yet the lyrics are sad. Listening to this song still makes me happy, though!
