Ask your friends about an event you shared, say, five years ago,(not when you were all zonked out of your heads, but a sober memory) and watch what happens. Lolwith such a deep excursion into the mind and souls of paul simon i couldn't improve on anything the first commenter said. It is only through our own imagination- the colors we choose to paint our own memories with- that they become vivid and alive.
"Kodachrome" is a song by the American singer-songwriter Paul Simon. On the surface a very happy song, but seen from the perspective of a young GI in country (most were poor, recent high school graduates, or dropouts) it tells the saddest story possible. Ironically, they split up at the height of their epic success, in 1970. The song became an appreciation of the things that color our world, and a look at how our memories are framed to fit our worldviews.
The song is named after Kodak's now-discontinued reversal film brand Kodachrome. as far as bob dylan actually commenting i don't think so. It is only in the photo albums that exist in our minds that the greens are greener and the days sunnier.All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners. sort form. Kodachrome was exspensive to develop & like any expensive product the possibility of be discontinued for something cheaper always lingered. Simon sings about his Nikon camera and his color film, being Kodachrome (Kodak Company) but in my humble opinion, it seems to be somewhat of a coming of age song. for paul simon i like him a lot since back in the day. Photographs are dull and two dimensional- they may as well all be black and white, thereby making the invention unnecessary. He began his career with Art Garfunkel back in 1964 and they were very successful. He had no idea what it meant, but knew it would make for a much more interesting song than "Coming Home." time to come out of your self imposed life as dylan. Although it has been 40 plus years now, for some reason, whenever I hear Paul Simon’s name I automatically think of Art Garfunkel as well.Other interpretations of the song are that it references the drug use that was prevalent back in the day. Kodachrome was LSD - makes the world look beautiful with so many colors. But needs us to know that there is no comparison between our imagination and a technique developed by Mr. Eastman. The meaning of the refrain "mama don’t take my Kodachrome" can be interpreted quite literally then. His mind is the camera that colors his memories. dylan in public forums as tv interviews never has a bad word about any singer past present and as far into the future he has left,he's not into that. General CommentYou people need to recognize the classics, jeez. The narrator of the song, who was a poor to middling high school student, has now found himself addicted to his Playboy magazines, and in the last stanza he imagines “all the girls I knew”, or all the Playboy centerfolds, in one big sexual (and highly unlikely) fantasy orgy. Simon seems to think that Kodachrome is a nice, little, invention and has fun with that.
