Yes there is a lot more in there. excerpt from an interview with Edie last week with Mike ragogna
Paul (Simon) and I are making a little duets record together, and it features a lot of that finger style picking guitar, and that´s been a real lot of fun. I mean, I can see how he really knows how to make a record, and it´s fascinating to watch him throw something so simple together and make it grow into this sonic landscape that is gorgeous. So that´s been exciting, and that´s creatively what´s going on

I only had the time to listened to it once now so I can not really judge. But the song definately sounds much more like Edie than Paul (to me). I think it should not be compared to Pauls solo work, it is more easy listening stuff. I try it again (isn´t there a mp3 somewhere?)

What I like is how fast they develop something new. Paul has become a really slow writer in the last years (5-6 years per album and not much beside that), while Edie has many small projects going on. I think thats some fresh wind too for Paul... while he seems to think a year about how to improve one songline sometimes, Edie maybe stops him and says: Thats perfect.

It does sound much more like Edie, but personally I think she has a lot of potential. She is very imaginative and creative, besides having a lovely voice -- much better than standard easy listening fare.

This song is a routine. I try to forget fast and listen to some new, ripe and complex PS again.

Sometimes its nice to have a happy song to sing along to. Can really cheer you up Looking forward to their album together Hopefully some country songs on there too. Edie is very versatile though and can sing all types of music.
