The Sound of Silence (Fingerstyle Guitar)

Filmed in the middle of a blizzard. There's a beautiful silence at night when it snows and I felt inspired to record this song. No guitars were harmed during the filming of this video! I filmed this with a really cheap fully laminated guitar so there was no wood to be damaged by the temperature change. It was freezing cold and the winds were howling so Maple stayed nice and warm inside while I filmed this one alone :)

Sound of Silence by Simon & Garfunkel
"Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said, the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls
And whispered in the sounds of silence"
Songwriters: Paul Simon
