Great song relating back to the days when colored film became available. Colorful images and shots of old Kodak cameras underscore the influence Kodak had on all of us amateur photographers. Written and recorded by Paul Simon. Appeared in his 1973 album, "There Goes Rhymin' Simon"

  • This is wonderful!! Happy 70th Birthday, Mr. Paul Simon!!

  • @Gidget521 Didn't realize he was established in his "golden years" and still performing like the firecracker he's always been! Thanks for the reminder!

  • This is just great! I love the song, and the photography is perfect. I hear this one in my head when I'm out doing a photo shoot. I don't use a Nikon but that's irrelevant. And there's still something about film - the way it forced us to capture what we saw and get it right, without a big margin for error. Photographers were in charge. The mind had to envision perspective, depth-of-field, cropping. Today, the camera does so many of our former tasks. We're now editors; it's becoming the creator.

  • @silharima What a terrific comment!! You are so right!! Thanks for taking the time to give your wise perspective!

  • I loved this. The pictures are unbelievable . I think Kodachrome is the mind. We take snapshots in our minds. He's asking his honey not to ruin his dreams and memories, You think?

  • @lisaleelee10 I LOVE your interpretation!! "snapshots in our minds"......brilliant! Thanks so much!

see all

  • Don't you use Ectochrome for the greens of summers?

  • I still shoot flim and yes there Nikon cameras a F and a F2 and a FM, The next camera I want is a Rolleiflex 120. I think I will sell my Fing Nikon D200 and buy a Nikon F5.

  • 7 people didnt learn crap in highschool

  • @Adamfulgence I'm hoping to see him perform on his next tour. Heard on the radio that he is going to perform the entire "Graceland" album with Ladysmith Black Mambazo; and I'm sure he'll perform other wonderful tunes. :)
