保罗西蒙在21岁时（六十年代初）写的歌，当时的情况是工业革命正处于高峰期，电视在1962年左右基本在美国普及，不再是奢侈品。但是伴随着物质生活的提高，人们发现人与人之间的交流变得更困难了。大家以前是围着篝火有着温馨的聚会和坦诚的交流，当时却只能是偶尔瞄一眼大街上的霓虹灯，在家里“孤独”地看着电视。人们对自己制造的东西产生了“崇拜”（neon god), 各种商业化达到了极致，人在对物欲和虚荣无止境的追求中丧失了自我。人与人之间变得缺乏信任，变得冷漠无情和自私，难怪那个时期的重要事件是越战和肯尼迪总统遇刺。大众对缺乏真诚交流这个现象的冷漠像cancer一样生长，是导致各种“悲剧”上演的一个重要原因（no one dare disturb the sound of silence)。
【Sound of Silence】 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 shared And no one dared Disturb the sound of silence "Fools" said I, "You do not know Silence like a cancer grows Hear my words that I might teach you Take my arms that I might reach you" But my words, like silent raindrops fell And echoed in the wells 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 Then the sign said, "The words on the prophets are written on the subway walls In tenement halls" And whispered in the sound of silence
像美景一样，特别喜欢这首歌！总觉得这歌后面肯定有故事，就特意去查了一下！

其实这个歌曲即使到现今也是有现实意义的。进入互联网以来，人们之间的交流手段越来越多，但“真诚有效”的交流和沟通还是远远不够，网上不和谐的事情还是时有发生，人与人之间的缺乏信任和误解依旧存在，世界上大部分纷争其实是从“小误会”开始的。
就唱坛而言，小伙伴们做的相当棒了！每次活动大家都积极参与，踊跃发歌抒发自己的感想，展示自己的才艺！大家有热烈的互动和美好的问候，在欢乐友谊祥和的气氛中度过一个又一个岁月！在这里，温暖和友情占据了我们的心，太棒了，给你们点赞！
此外作为唱坛的一员，我们还要对所有的冷漠和冷血说No！让我们用真诚的歌声来唱出我们对这个世界的美好愿望和感恩！谢谢大家！
【Sound of Silence】 Hello darkness, my old friendI'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 shared
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence "Fools" said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words, like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells 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
Then the sign said, "The words on the prophets are written on the subway walls
In tenement halls"
And whispered in the sound of silence

【Sound of Silence】跟风美景 经典歌曲回顾：《恰似你的温柔》 《梵高先生》-我们生来就是孤独 《And I love you so 》祝大家周末愉快！ 。。丝毫没有飘离，如果我要挑挑刺儿，希望你别介意，我觉得类似saw, more,这些词的尾音拖音有点点长
谢谢美景建议！
本来应该是二声部合唱，现在水平有限，整不了
