Lyrics:
Couple in the next room bound to win a prize
They've been going at it all night long
Well, I'm trying to get some sleep
But these motel walls are cheap
Lincoln Duncan is my name, and here's my song
Here's my song
#PaulSimon #Duncan #OfficialAudio
One of the greatest songs of all time. It's like reading a good novel, or watching a good movie, somehow in the space of a few minutes.
In my top 10 and I'm over 60 with prog rock tastes
I first heard this song when my older brother was playing his Paul Simon album about 40 years ago. It totally blew me away.
Totally in concurrence. 🫂
同意します。
はじめて聴いた時から、そして詩の内容も相変わらずいい！👍❤
Excellent. I couldn't have come close to your sentiment. Thank paul for the song and you for your kind words
Paul Simon is so much more talented than anyone else is or was in pop / rock music!
If he had only ever written this one song, it would have justified his life. I have spent time on this road, and my dad’s story goes even deeper than this. Life is full of knuckleballs and curveballs, but if you are standing tall when you meet your maker, you are a winner. I love this song. ✌️🍀❤️
Paul Simon never ceases to amaze me. These lyrics are fantastic. Like Im in a room watching him play this masterpiece.
I got this album at Christmas from my most beloved girlfriend it still gives me such warm and strong emoties,
Meaningful lyrics, melodic composition. Only someone as talented and far sighted as Paul Simon can bring this song alive.
Maybe, just maybe the greatest singer/songwriter of all time >>>
and like a dog I was befriended.Wow!.Great song from my favourite artist.
My name is Duncan. I was named after my dad listened to this song
Did you meet a nice preacher girl?
My lover is called Duncan. I loved this song decades before I knew him. I knew his name decades before I loved him.
I remember in 1973, my American friend (she was 26 and I was 18) turned on her cassette player for me to listen to this song. I had heard a lot of American songs and loved them all but I didn't always understand them enough. So she sang this song along by short section and said it clearly for me to understand. I love the lyrics although I had never heard any songs in my language mentioned such a topic. I tried to learn to sing it but it was too difficult for me. I hadn't been able to hear the song for a long time until there was the Internet everywhere. It is a really great remembrance of her and the time we were together.
I think she was trying to hit on you.
@@Mistwolfss I am not sure but it was very important for me to understand the language at the time.
Like a dog.... you were befriended. Hold her memory close to your heart. Thanks for sharing...
A master songwriter if ever there was one.
RIP Duncan. This one's for you, bro. I just can't even believe it yet. You were one heck of a southern yank & those stories, man, priceless. Thank you for that Christmas gift you gave me for no reason other than we just clicked. I will treasure it for all my days, friend. The good die young, they say. In your case, it's true. Love to you, your brother, Liz , and all our wh fam. #youaremissed😢
The andean flute bring me to Macchu Picchu and the Inca empire , so.proud I'm peruvian
What I enjoy most from this song is when he sings at the end about the "garden of delight" at night with the preaching girl: "I was playing my guitar (...) thanking the Lord for my fingers"... What did he do with his fingers to be thanking the Lord??? A quite hilarious ambiguos quote that reflects Simon is a fantastic lyricist.
Nun ja, das bedeutet, dass er glücklich war, so schön Gitarre 🎸spielen zu können, dafür brauchte er ja seine Finger!! Und er brauchte sie auch, um das Mädchen streicheln zu können (Text), was ihn auch beglückte!🎉 Klar, ist zweideutig.
My favorite of Paul’s solo works.
Paul said it for us all, only so much more beautifully.
Paul Simon is another great American songwriter. Love what he does so much. This song is great. Cheers!
I am currently obsessed with this song
ME TOO! IS STRANGE...
This album is Paul’s great masterpiece in my opinion
Agreed. This is a fantastic album.
One of my early childhood memories is hearing Duncan on the radio.
I first heard this song while living in a cheap hotel in San Francisco after driving across the country in my early 20s to escape the boredom of my small town life. I found just about every lyric of this relatable.
Sounds fun🤭
I left home at 13 to thumb cross country. It was a Simon and Garfunkel time easy breezy
Times have changed, I wouldn't hitchhike across the street now days 👍
One of my most favorite folksong during my high School days until I still admire this of Duncan folksong
I was 18 years old when this song came out, I’m 67 years old now….I wish I knew then what I know know….I’m proud of my sins lol
As u should be! W/o those "sins," u wouldn't be the person u r now! "Hindsight's 20/20," but I'm glad I made my choices even if some things didn't turn out the best. If I knew then what I know now, I might've made different choices which would be a terrible loss. Bc of those choices & "sins," I've met the MOST AMAZING, thought-provoking & life-changing people; experienced sublime things I would never have even been exposed to; I've loved, lost, & learned so much about myself & others! So for those things & _MANY_ more, I'm incredibly grateful for my youthful ignorance!😉😊 ✌🤗♥️🌎
@@ellec7276exactly
You won't be proud 5 minutes after you die..when you face your Creator..you will scared out of your mind!!
Apologies to Oh la la and Ronnie Lane? N'est ce-pas?
I have always loved Paul, he's the total package of music. One of the greatest songwriters for sure. Poetry in music
He also has a cute sense of humor. 😂
Yes I agree what a beautiful song
I love Paul Simon and love this brilliant song. It gives me the chills.
It seems like his Father and Mother were not married. And it appears that he came from MAINE in the song
"Fingers". Sexual implication
Wonderful melody and lyrics. If there is a (Christian) God, He will like this sweet prayer. 👍♥️🤠
“My mama was fisherman’s friend”
Both simple and emotionally profound all at once
It can't be easy, having a cough drop for a mother. 🤔
I have two children. This was the only lullaby I sang. Trapped in Texas. (Massachusetts girl, and low alto)
This man is a lyrical genius, brought home in this song by his total immersion in the character of Duncan, where he wrote ' I seen {rather than saw} that girl was the road to my survival'. I bought this album on CD, many years ago but it's all on here now, so I don't even need to get it from the drawer and fire up my hi fi.
😂but it sounds sooooo much better on your stereo .... betcha 😂!!! It's worth all the extras !!!!
@@lindapoplin4473 Yes Linda, it surely does, but to be honest, I've not used my stereo system in ages. One thing I will say though, UA-cam's new advert compulsion and aversion to adblock has forced me into use incognito mode with google chrome, even though doing so has limited the suggested videos, ability to leave comments etc. Clearly, Google doesn't have enough billions in its coffers and wants us all to pay up for Premium. There's more chance of me sending a birthday card to my ex wife !
Once in awhile I crank up my Victrola and put my album on.
For me the most genius thing in that line is the church choir video vocal ending he gives to "survival"
I've actually since bought up a jackplug to the back of the computer and connections to my hi fi's amplifier at the other end of the lead. It does sound very good and I can browse UA-cam for different genres of music very easily.@@lindapoplin4473
I was lucky enough to attend The Lawrenceville School, NJ from 1973 to 1976. The sweet, semi-mystical nostalgic tone of this wonderful ballad takes me back to the fun & wonder of our teenage years in "The Garden State"! We'd take the bus into Princeton for a change of pace. The alcohol buying age back then was 18. Guess who got appointed to sneak out of campus to buy a 6-pack of Molson Golden Ale?! Yep -- Cav = L'76! I'll never forget my pals Luke Megna; Seth Waugh, Cass Caspary, Matt Hamman, etc. We had 1 helluva good time! Thanks to zillions of great tunes! Peace & Love, Cav = L'ville's "Sprit of '76!" =====================
The song has a special place in my heart. The reason I would be going on too long explaining.
@@Linda_Potato after my mother married my stepfather back in 65 or 66 they had bought a house. I moved in with them and my step sister moved in with us. Her and I were very close as we both loved the same music from the '60s. One day we were sitting on the porch playing our transistor radio and a lady came walking by with a stroller with a little kid in it. She heard the song that was playing on our little transistor radio and she says I like that one. Another thing we loved about this woman was she was British and we heard that accent and we were just loving to hear her speak. She had a little boy in the stroller who had a beatle haircut. He was about five. So we're talking to her and we said what is your son's name and she said Duncan. He was so cute. He had this little British voice I'll never forget.
Thank you
I think I could listen to this all day long!
I saw Paul Simon in Paris with Garfunkel, such a magic night...!
amazing songwriter and I love his voice.
and thanks again for the charango, quena and sampoña.
Oh, what a night, oh what a garden of delight
LA MEJOR, L A ESCUCHÉ POR PRIMERA VEZ EN 1977 Y LA SEGUIRÉ ESCUCHANDO, ME TRAE MUCHOS RECUERDOS
I grew up listening to this song!
i was a kid when this album came out we played it over n over, but i always thought " theyve been going at it all night long" meant they were fighting.
No they were not fighting but making love
Beautiful song
There is no accurate explanation I can give that conveys the diversity of feelings and imagery that greet my ears with this, tricking my other senses into disbelief. Traveling to a multitude of thoughts that were once individual worlds now fused. This is not just one master work but a collection of masters working in harmony.
What a sublimely written, evocative comment that is not only magnificently musical in its rhythm, but is also reverently harmonious, expertly befitting the GENIUS that IS Paul Simon with his incomparable ability to fully envelope the listener with the majestic splendor of layers upon layers of harmonies that arouses our imagination igniting the ability to transport us to another place & time! 👏😊👏
TYSVM for your lovely comment! 🥰
Have an SPECTACULAR day & please take care!🙏 ✌🤗♥️🌎
A window is glass but still able to feel the outside. Inside someone looks out. Outside someone looks in. Sometimes wind comes through my window at night. In the summer it feels good. In the winter I have to grab another blanket.
@@nothertreeinbox what is that a short story?
This song go brrrr
Como no recordar los sonidos andinos
de nuestras raices peruanas en Duncan y mas su cantar de Paul Simon.
I've been searching for this song for many, many years-finally, at long last, I've found it! Beautiful!
I love it when that happens.
Some of the greatest poetry ever put to music. I remember a song I heard over 30 years ago called My Little Town. A line that moved me so was " in my little town I was never nothing just my father's son saving my money dreaming of glory and twitching like the finger on the trigger of a gun" That was so beautifully said . Deeply meaningful. I'm not sure I have every word correct but that was at least the gist of it. Love to hear if again.
I love “and He used to lean upon me as I pledged allegiance to the wall” and “flyin’ my bike past the gates of the factory”. Instant teleport back to childhood!
Corrected lyrics: "in my little town, I was never nothing, I was just my father's son-savin’ my money, dreamin’ of glory, twitchin’ like a finger on the trigger of a gun". This is what the guys sing on the track. The official lyrics may differ. And objects in the mirror are closer than they appear.
Cheers!
Sehr schöner Song, den ich mit 21 Jahren unentwegt hörte!! Einer seiner besten Songs, ich liebe die Melodie, Text ist auch sehr gut!!! Erweckte damals Sehnsucht in mir, nach der Ferne und nach meiner Familie ..... 😢🎉💕👌
Damn, even the Krauts like Paul Simon. It's amazing what losing a war can do to someone's music taste.
@@jazzfeline5970
Ja glaubst Du, wir hätten in Deutschland nicht auch Musik aus Amerika gehört?? Ich liebte die Musik von Paul Simon & Art Garfunkel damals, 1974 !!! Und heute noch liebe ich ihre Songs!!!👍🏻👍🏻 Ich kann gar nicht alle Musiker aus Amerika kommend aufzählen, deren Musik auf der ganzen Welt gehört wurde und wird, auch bei uns in Deutschland, und die ich so gut finde - natürlich!!!👍🏻 Zum Beispiel Janis Joplin, einfach überzeugend authentisch, ehrlich!! Ihr Hit "Summertime", den liebe ich besonders!!🎶 Was meinst Du!!! Schöne Grüße aus Deutschland!🌳🌳
Love this song the instruments arrangement in it so great. One of Paul the best
What a great song. Cheers Paul.
Maravillosa canción al lado de los Incas!!! los recuerdos afloran como una cascada, muchas gracias Paul Simon…conservo ese LP como un tesoro.
si con el charango y quena y sampoña ☺
los incas cultura pagana construida con ayuda de satan y sus aliados. Para nada algo de lo que debamos sentirnos orgullosos saludos desde peru
Esta hermosa canción DUNCAN,me impactó desde que la escuché h ace más de 40 años y hasta ahora la sigo escuchando y asi será por siempre,al igual que el Sonido del Silencio y Boxer.
Every time I listen I learn something. I think one of the greatest song writers and musicians. Lovely fingerings. Great story teller. Where's the video? Imagine your version.
Heck of a Lyricist...some folks is just better at putting words together than other folks!...woods
i've always loved this song, haven't heard it in a few years at least. i came here because the Holy Ghost filled me for the first time today. i am new to the faith and i couldn't get this song out of my head "i told her i was lost, and she told me all about the pentecost, and seeing that girl was the road to my surviiiiiayiiayiiival.... i know, i know, i know."
Amazing song and album.
Great song!! Bob Dylan, eat your heart out!!
I simply Love me some Paul Simon!
Great tune old tunes brilliant still play on guitar myself , good memories with all Paul's songs pure class 👌
what another great song... thanks for the words, the music and some sounds from south America...
Love the flutes
Hey thanks for all the good music you just posted!
I listen to this song a lot when I’m feeling down
Such an amazing song!!!! 😃
This came out when I was 13 love ever since
Couple in the next room
bound to win a prize:
they've been going at it all night long!
Well, I'm tryin' to get some sleep
but these motel walls are cheap:
Lincoln Duncan is my name,
and here's my song, here's my song.
My father was a fisherman,
my mama was a fisherman's friend,
and I was born in the boredom and the chowder.
So when I reached my prime
I left my home in the Maritimes,
headed down the turnpike for New England, sweet New England.
Holes in my confidence,
holes in the knees of my jeans,
I was left without a penny in my pocket ....
Oo-oowee, I was about as destituted as a kid could be
and I wished I wore a ring so I could hock it ...
I'd like to hock it
A young girl in a parkin' lot
was preaching to a crowd,
singing sacred songs
and reading from the Bible.
Well, I told her I was lost
and she told all about the Pentecost,
and I seen that girl as the road to my survival,
my survival.
Just later on
the very same night
when I crept to her tent with a flashlight
and my long years of innocence ended:
Well, she took me to the woods,
sayin' "Here comes something, and it feels so good!",
and just like a dog I was befriended, I was befriended.
Oh, oh, what a night,
oh, what a garden of delight ...
Even now that sweet memory lingers:
I was playing my guitar
lyin' underneath the stars
just thankin' the Lord
for my fingers,
for my fingers...

Todo un himno universal está estupenda canción de Paul Simón, un talento increíble e inolvidable. Sintetizó mi juventud en éste grandioso tema.

Qué maravillosa descripción de mis sentimientos,obligada Elmira
Lot of creative music back in the 70s
Nice & unforgetable song!
👍👍👍👍Wunderschönes Lied 👍👍👍👍
ポール サイモンの 初めてのソロアルバムからの 一曲。 私が聴いた最初のソロアルバムの中では 一番 ポールらしい曲。穏やかな曲調と歌詞が印象に残る。
Revisiting the themes from "The Boxer," with a feeling of passage rather than struggle.
awesome song
How have i never heard of this song?
Epidimy of art.
Good music for my breakfast 😍, I'm just your fan Paul Simon.
Linda ! ❤👏👏👏👏👏👏
Some songs ought to be poetic, literary ..... a story streaming through audio visualizations charmed by human intuition and grateful recognition! * Cav = L'76! *
Temazo .
Precioso el acompañamiento de la guitarra. Conocí éste tema con 18 años. Me sigue encantando. Todo el Lp es muy agradable. ❤
Wonderful
좋은 노래들 너무 감사 드립니다🙏🙏🙏~
I have been through similar circumstances. I moved out when I was 15 and lived in Hollywood without a penny in my pocket
Nice song

Duncan- Paul Simon
Couple in the next room bound to win a prize
옆방 커플에게 상이라도 줘야겠어
They've been going at it all night long!
밤새도록 뒹굴고 있으니 말이야
Well, I'm tryin' to get some sleep
음, 잠을 청하려 했지만
But these motel walls are cheap
이 모텔 벽은 싸구려야
Lincoln Duncan is my name And here's my song,
내 이름은 링컨 던컨이에요 그리고 여기 내 노래를 들어보세요
My father was a fisherman
제 아버지는 어부였고
My mama was a fisherman's friend
어머니는 어부의 친구였어요
And I was born in the boredom and the chowder
그리고 내가 태어난 건 권태와 마약의 산물이었죠
So when I reached my prime
그래서 청년이 되어서
I left my home in the Maritimes
나는 고향 메리타임즈를 떠나 고속도로로 향했어요
headed down the turnpike for New England,
멋진 뉴잉글랜드를 향해서 말이에요
sweet New England
멋진 뉴잉글랜드
Holes in my confidence
자신감에도 구멍이 나고
Holes in the knees of my jeans
청바지 무릎에도 구멍이 나고
I was left without a penny in my pocket
주머니에는 동전 한푼 없었어요
I was about as destituted as a kid could be
난 정말 더할 나위 없이 절박한 아이였어요
And I wished I wore a ring So I could hock it,
저당이라도 잡힐 수 있는 반지라도 하나 끼고 있었으면 했어요
I'd like to hock it
저당이라도 잡힐 수 있는
A young girl in a parkin' lot was preaching to a crowd
주차장에서 한 아가씨가 사람들에게 연설을 하고 있었어요
Singing sacred songs And reading from the Bible
찬송가도 부르고 성경도 읽어 주었어요
Well, I told her I was lost
그녀에게 내가 어찌할지 모르겠다고 했더니
And she told all about the Pentecost
오순절에 대해 모두 설명해 주었어요
And I seen that girl as the road to my survival
그리고 난 그녀를 내가 살아가게 해 줄 길로 생각했죠
Just later on the very same night
그리고 얼마 후 바로 그 날 밤
When I crept to her tent with a flashlight
손전등을 들고 그녀의 텐트에 슬며시 들어갔어요
And my long years of innocence ended
그리고 내 오랜 순결을 잃었죠
Well, she took me to the woods,
그녀는 나를 숲으로 이끌며 말했어요
sayin' "Here comes something and it feels so good!",
"기대해도 좋아요 아주 근사할 거예요"
And just like a dog I was befriended
그리고 순한 강아지마냥 나는 그녀와 친구가 되었어요
I was befriended
나는 그녀와 친구가 되었어요
Oh, oh, what a night
굉장한 밤이었어요
Oh, what a garden of delight
환희의 정원에 있는 듯했어요
Even now that sweet memory lingers
지금도 달콤한 그 추억이 남아 있어요
I was playing my guitar lyin' underneath the stars
나는 별을 바라보며 누워서 기타를 치고 있었어요
just thankin' the Lord for my fingers,
내 손가락에 재능을 주신 하느님게 감사하면서 말이에요
for my fingers
내 손가락에
I know. I know. I know.
Самая потрясающая музыка, сколько лет слушаю а пробирает аж до мурашек, на все времена. 🥰
Gran tema.airecito andino.
Canción de la sencillez y el recogimiento. Los bellos y dulces sentimientos que afloran sobre toda la inmundicia de este mundo...
Charango y quenas , esta es una canción 100 por ciento andina, con una voz llena de nostalgia por un pasado tormentoso. Tristeza y mil recuerdos trae a nuestra vida estas notas musicales.
thank god
thank for my finger🙏😭
I heard this on 10 Items or Less, good movie. Morgan Freeman was riding with Paz Vega and the view was lonely and cold. This song played during their drive. Total Isolation.😶
옛날에 어떻게 이런 멜로디를 만들수 있었는 지 언제 들어도 질리지 않는 리듬 입니다
Reminds me of some of his earlier works. 😊
💙
Realmente me vella a una retrospeccion linda de mi vida nostalgia
The Andin Flute is token by the Urubamba Argentinian folkloric band
Very emotional in 2022
10 items or less, this song fit the film perfectly for some reason
It just occurred to me, after decades listening to this song, that the arrangement seems to be patterned after El Condor Pasa, from the S&G Bridge Over Troubled Water album;.
감사합니다. 폴. 항상 즐겨 듣고있습니다.
