COVID Sessions – One Man’s Ceiling

This song was written by Paul Simon, and was released on his 1973 album There Goes Rhymin’ Simon.

I love Paul Simon’s work, especially his early stuff. There’s jazz, gospel, rock, pop, and soul in almost every song.

Although I do not currently live in an apartment building, I have in the past. In fact I had an efficiency apartment that was so small it was three giant steps from the foot of the bed to the stove. I hated it, and was very happy to finally move into a duplex. Of course, that wasn’t all it was cracked up to be either, what with my downstairs neighbor fixing his Harley late at night while listening to Boston. The only good thing to come out of that is that I now have the bass line to More Than A Feeling memorized.

Anyhoo, this is supposed to relate to the current COVID crisis, and it does. We’re all locked up, separate, but together, so be good to your neighbor.

One Man’s Ceiling Is Another Man’s Floor
