Paul Simon wrote this as a thinly veiled message to Art Garfunkel, referencing in the first stanza a specific incident where Garfunkel went to Mexico to act in the film Catch-22. Simon was left alone in New York writing songs for Bridge over Troubled Water, hence the lonely feelings of "The Only Living Boy in New York." Simon refers to Garfunkel in the song as "Tom", alluding to their early days when they were called Tom and Jerry, and encourages him to "let your honesty shine . . . like it shines on me". The background vocals feature both Garfunkel and Simon recorded together in an echo chamber, multi-tracked around eight times!

Sorry, I'm a little false on the verse ends words, cause I can't get lower ':)) (It seems I've got the same voice range since I'm twelve LOL)

@Cbien: Isn't there an app that can automatically generate the harmony vocals?

Cbien 2 Jahre vor

@stubass: You can do it manually with Autotune and Melodyne, and I guess there's plenty of plugins to generate harmonies automatically... But where's the fun and the challenge, in that case? :P
