Simon & Garfunkel - For Emily, Whenever I May Find Her

About "For Emily, Whenever I May Find Her"

"For Emily, Whenever I May Find Her" is a song written by Paul Simon and recorded by American music duo Simon & Garfunkel on their third studio album, Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme (1966). It is sung solely by Art Garfunkel, and consists mainly of his vocals with heavy reverb and a 12-string acoustic guitar. The lyrics concern finding a lover, although Simon once characterized the subject matter as being about a "belief," rather than about a specific individual.

First issued as a single as the B-side of "A Hazy Shade of Winter" (1966), the song was later reissued in live form in 1972 to promote the release of the compilation album Simon and Garfunkel's Greatest Hits. The track reached number 53 on the Billboard Hot 100 in July 1972. Afterwards, the song was switched to the B-side of the single with “America” as the A-side and re-entered the charts in November 1972. It has been covered numerous times by many notable artists, and remains a staple of Art Garfunkel's live sets. He regards it as one of the most challenging songs to perform.
