- Still_Crazy_After_All_These_Years_(song) abstract "\"Still Crazy After All These Years\" is a song written by Paul Simon that was the opening song and title track of his 1975 album Still Crazy After All These Years. It was also released as a single and barely reached the Top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100, but it reached #5 on Billboard's Adult Contemporary chart.\"Still Crazy After All These Years\" begins with the singer singing that \"I met my old lover on the street last night.\" The \"old lover\" has been variously interpreted to be either Simon's ex-wife Peggy Harper, from whom he was recently divorced, his former girlfriend from the 1960s Kathy Chitty, or even Simon's former musical partner Art Garfunkel, who appears on the song that follows 'Still Crazy After All These Years\" on the album. After sharing a beer, the singer and the old lover part ways again. The singer notes that he is \"not the kind of man who tends to socialize\" but rather leans \"on old familiar ways\" and is \"still crazy after all these years.\" The lyrics acknowledge a nostalgia for the past, but also subtly suggest that once the sweet nostalgia is gone, it is replaced by loneliness and even bitterness.The musicians for \"Still Crazy After All These Years\" were mostly taken from the Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section and include prominent parts for Barry Beckett on electric piano and Michael Brecker on tenor saxophone. The saxophone emphasizes the jazz character of the song. Music theorist Peter Kaminsky analyzed how the key progression of the introduction to \"Still Crazy After All These Years\" anticipates the key progressions throughout the album. The song has an AABA form, with the first, second and fourth verses sharing the same basic melody. The first and second verses are primarily in the key of G major, although there are some unexpected harmonies that differ between the verses. The key of the third verse, the B section, is never resolved. G major returns in the final verse, but modulates to the slightly higher key of A major, which according to author James Bennighof gives \"a faint sense of slightly demented triumph to the singer's declaration that he wouldn't be held responsible for his potential mayhem.\" Music critic Walter Everett considers this modulation to reflect the singer's \"unpredictable emotional and mental state.\"The song was featured in a Saturday Night Live sketch with Simon dressed as a turkey in 1976. Simon performed the song on the SNL 40th Anniversary Special in February 2015. Rolling Stone Magazine critic Paul Nelson considered \"Still Crazy After All These Years\" to be the best song on the album. He praises the \"poignancy and openness\" of the first verse and Brecker's passionate sax solo, and the fact that the song demonstrates \"the fierceness of [Simon's] will.\"".
