A song from college or early adulthood. - Graceland is on my all time top 10 list and this is one of my favorite songs from the album. Imagine how shocked i was to find out just this year that Paul Simon basically just ripped this off from Los Lobos. It's a batshit crazy story. Although Paul is a certifiable genius, he was a bit of a jerk in this case. Whatever. It's a great tune!
