    Very juvenile sounding.

    Why do I still see you in every mirrored window,
    In all that I could never overcome?

    the song isn't bad, it's just so forgettable...hence i haven't listened to it since this was on the radio.

    4/10

    Singer is a Master...it is hard not to give him 10/10
    Song is a classic...it deserves at least a 9/10

    Overall....9/10 (we'll leave a little room for perfection's sake)

    You know, I'm sure Paul Simon is an exceptionally gifted songwriter but he is also monumentally uncool. Man, what a square. 6.3/10.

    This, I think, has, despite the period-specific ting-pow production.

    A song so good, it survived the singular and often fatal experience of being covered by the Counting Crows. 9.5/10.

    It's nothing new or creative. The only thing that saved it was the trumpet.

    And Mathor's not allowed to follow mine, because that's cheating haha

    Not bad, while it intrigued my tastes, it didn't send fireworks. 6.75/10

    Love the song, love Ella, but it's not my favourite rendition.
