#11 Simon and Garfunkel

Probably not the popular choice but the correct one. Best two person harmonies of all tim. GOAT at what they did.

I would have gone with Simon and Garfunkel, but I'm probably a bigger Kinks fan that most. Pretty much a 50/50 game here if I was being truly objective, maybe even tilted to Simon and Garfunkel is you factor in record sales in the US.

#6 The Kinks

S&G are fucking terrible and boring. Their records are like listening to a upper division physics lecture by some Romanian on a Friday night.

Fuck you. I love sterile, collegiate folk rock.

#6 The Kinks

The Kinks have 2-3 all time classic rock songs: You Really Got Me, All Day and All of the Night and even had Paranoia, which was dope... and Father Christmas.

Plus they had I'm so Tired, which is super dope:

The Kinks kick ass. S&G is like watching paint dry at Pumpy's trailer in Maltby.

S&G does invoke the desire to commit suicide.

But this is probably one of the top 5 lyric hooks of all time. Perfect wordsmitthing.

Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio?
A nation turns its lonely eyes to you, wo wo wo
What's that you say, Mrs. Robinson
'Joltin Joe' has left and gone away, hey hey hey


Slightly better: Little old lady got mutilated late last night.
