Paul Simon’s "Sounds of Silence" I chose the song "Sounds of Silence" because I admire Paul Simon’s lyrics and I believe this is one of his best songs in terms of its poetic quality. The song is very haunting: its lyrics stir you and leave you feeling as though you’ve heard and witnessed something profound.

Analyzing “The Sound of a Voice” The play “The Sound of a Voice”‚ written by David Henry Hwang‚ is a very moving work of art. The play is easily understood but does throw a few surprises into the mix when one learns more about the characters past.
