John Lennon? Surely Johnny Ace (Johnny Marshall Alexander, Jr.)?ThetestingofLSDbytheUSarmy 03:26, 14 Nov 2003 (UTC) http://www.rockabilly.nl/artists/johnny_ace.htm

Both, actually. The first verses of the song which deal with the "real" Johnny Ace set up the devastating last verse which is about Lennon. When Simon sang debuted the song at the Central Park concert in 1982, a crazed fan rushed onto the stage to Simon's wide-eyed fearful reaction, an eerie thing considering the subject matter.

[edit] Simon and Garfunkel album

I know this album was originally going to be Simon and Garfunkel's reunion album, but I've heard three seperate claims as to why it became a Paul Simon Solo Album (none of them neccessarily from relibable sources): that Paul simply decided he didn't want Art on the Album, that art had objections to some on the songs and left, and that Art failed to record his material on time and Simon released it without him instead of delaying the release.

If anyone can determine what actually happened I think it would make a good addition to the article.--198.93.113.49 15:51, 6 May 2005 (UTC)
