    I've heard it on the radio a number of times over the past couple of days... apparently, Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel have settled their long-running differences, have gotten back together as a musical duo once again and are planning to tour together, playing concerts worldwide and, it's rumoured, work on material together for a new Simon & Garfunkel album.

    Personally, I'm glad to hear it as Simon & Garfunkel were one of the musical acts I grew up with and always enjoyed. Their haunting melodies, thought-provoking lyrics, catchy rhythms and melancholy themes will always have a place in my CD collection, and my heart...

    To be honest, I "grew up with them" because my parents were big fans of theirs in their day and their musical tastes rubbed off on me to some degree. (Okay, I never quite got into Nana Mouskouri or Planxty, and my dad was never quite a hard rock/metal fan... but you get my meaning...).

    So... quick poll for you lot...

    Simon & Garfunkel back together...

    Good thing, bad thing, or don't care?

    Great news, from a great duo.
    Just so long as Garfunkel doesn't get any ideas about making movies anymore...

    Erm, good thing I suppose.

    As long as Paul doesn't stop his "quirky world music you've probably not really heard before" thing
