Paul Simon es el segundo álbum de estudio en solitario del cantautor estadounidense Paul Simon. Fue lanzado en enero de 1972, casi dos años después de que se separara de su compañero musical de larga data Art Garfunkel. Su primer álbum en solitario, grabado en Inglaterra en 1965, permaneció inédito en los EE. UU. hasta 1981, cuando apareció en el set de caja de 5 LP Collected Works. Originalmente lanzado por Columbia Records, Paul Simon fue luego editado bajo el sello Warner Bros. y desde entonces ha regresado a Columbia a través de Sony. El álbum encabezó las listas en el Reino Unido, Japón y Noruega y alcanzó el puesto No. 4 en los Billboard Pop Albums de EE. UU. Fue certificado platino en 1986.
“There was always some kind of strain, but it was workable. The bigger you get, the more of a strain it is, because in your everyday life, you're less used to compromising. As you get bigger, you have your own way. But in a partnership you always have to compromise. … When you get into a partnership, you're not the boss. There's no boss. That makes it hard.”
“I have gone through different phases in my music writing. There was a time when I used a little exercise — incorporating all of the twelve notes in the chromatic scale — to get me going. I used this technique for a while, but I don't any longer because I am going back to simpler melodies. Originally I moved away from the simple songs because I thought they were too simple.”
“Preserve your memories, they're all that's left you.”
“Snowman sittin' in the sun doesn't have time to waste.”
“"The universe loves a drama," you know. And ladies and gentlemen this is the show.”
“I am walking up the face of the mountain. Counting every step I climb. Remembering the names of the constellations. Forgotten is a long, long time.”
