The Boy in the Bubble

My favorite songwriter of all time has to be Paul Simon. Ever since I was a kid my Dad has played Paul Simon's music on road trips, during wok, and for the heck of it. Sometimes I feel like I was born listening to Bridge Over Troubled Water. But what is it about Paul Simon that is so worth loving? Aside from the nostalgic factor, I am a huge fan of Paul Simon because of how much variety he puts into each one of his songs. He puts so much effort into each one and it is hard not to admire it.
I began thinking of one particular Paul Simon song called the Boy in the Bubble after Dr. Ballinger's presentation on music videos. The song, like most Paul Simon songs, is incredibly catchy and featured a music video. I do not often watch music videos, but this one caught my eye. i can't tell you what it means I have no idea, but I am mesmerized by the imagery. You see all these moving shapes and colors and pictures and it seems to fit the hodgepodge of the song itself. It was one of those moments that seemed to heighten the music.
