Music Icon Paul Simon Reveals The Fan-Favorite Song He'll Never Perform Again
HuffPost
The singer/songwriter says he just can't do this one anymore.
American music legend Paul Simon said his battle with hearing loss means there are some songs he just can’t perform live anymore ― including one of his best-known tracks.
“I’m going through my repertoire and reducing a lot of the choices that I make to acoustic versions,” Simon told “CBS Mornings” this week. “It’s all much quieter. It’s not ‘You Can Call Me Al.’ That’s gone. I can’t do that one.”
Simon’s not happy about having to make those changes since he suffered a sudden and dramatic loss of hearing last year.
“It was incredibly frustrating,” he said. “I was very angry at first, y’know, that this had happened.”
Simon, 83, has performed “You Can Call Me All” live more than 400 times, according to Setlist.fm, making it one of the most frequently performed songs of his solo career.
