Written by Paul Simon, The Sound of Silence was recorded by Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel for their 1964 debut album Wednesday Morning, 3 A.M..
The album wasn't successful at first, but an overdubbed electric version of the song became popular a year later, and finally topped the charts in January 1966.
The remix version of the song became the title track on the duo's follow-up album, and was featured in the 1967 award-winning film The Graduate.
Today, The Sound of Silence is considered one to the greatest pop / folk rock songs ever written.
The song's original acoustic version makes for a wonderful, melancholic piano ballad!
