[edit] The Sounds of Silence

In the process of researching lyrics and titles for the local high school marching band, I have learned that the album "The Sounds of Silence" does indeed take its title from the earlier Simon & Garfunkel tune, which is included as the title track to this album.

However, the 'sound' in the earlier title is, indeed, plural, and not singular. It is printed as "The Sounds of Silence" in the track listing on "Wednesday Morning, 3AM." It is also spelled that way in the liner notes on that 1964 album, which appear above Art Garfunkel's signature. In the jpg file of the album cover that accompanies this article, the title track is also written with the plural 'sounds.'

So I have taken the liberty of removing the reference to misidentification from the Wikipedia page as I found it. My guess is that the song's title conflicts with the appearance of the phrase within the lyrics -- in the first occurances of the phrase, it is written in the singular, but in the final use, it is plural.

I hope this alleviates more confusion than it creates.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:WedAM.jpg

Image:WedAM.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Wednesday Morning 3 A.M.

About 80 percent of this song was used in "Somewhere they can't find me" (the lyrics, that is) in the next album. Worth mentioning I should say, either here, on a page for the song or on the "Sounds of Silence album" page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alessandro Malfatti (talkcontribs) 22:59, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
