a parody of "The Sound Of Silence" by Simon and Garfunkel
Prior to 2008, I was at the height of my alcoholism and in January of that year, I was arrested for DWI. It was my third. It was one hell of a wake up call and from that point on, I have been clean and sober. It has been over 11 years and 9 months. Over the years, I have written a couple of parodies about my alcoholism. This one is a perfect example. The previous link was wrong.

a parody of "The Sound Of Silence" by Simon and Garfunkel
This parody was inspired by how my life was over 6 years ago, when I was in the grips of alcoholism and dealing with the consequences that came from it. I have heard the sounds of sirens 3 times in my life. I am proud to say that I have not heard them in over six years because I have been clean and sober.

Story about this misheard lyric by: Kevin Degidon I have synesthesia and high functioning autism. When I first heard the song as a small child, then a teenager, I thoroughly visualized the words, the scene and the various stereophonic musical instruments in the piece. It all appears as an animated fantasy filled with abstract verbal imagery and a lullaby tranquility. |
