RE: Ode to a song: The Sound of Silence [Plus: Happy Holiday!]

Hi there!
I was wondering where were you and if you are ok. You sound relaxed and calm though!

When talking about songs and covers there is only one that comes in my mind. Actually it is so unique case that there are hundredths of covers and no actual original!
You have probably heard the cover by Dick Dale, in Pulp Fiction movie


but there are so many. The oldest recording is this one from 1927 but the song is much older

Actually no one knows for sure if it is Arabic, Greek or Jewish https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misirlou

Myself I prefer this one by a Greek band :)
