The folk-rock duo Simon & Garfunkel and the Steve McQueen Western series Wanted Dead or Alive don’t seem to have much in common at first. But look a little closer and commonalities start to show through.
Both deal with themes of justice, betrayal and a certain affinity for silence — and what it may or may not sound like.
Here are 20 different titles. Can you tell which ones are songs by Simon & Garfunkel and which ones are episodes of Wanted Dead or Alive?

"He Was My Brother"

16/20 I'm up to my neck in Wanted Dead or Alive Lol
18/20
Only missed one--and for no other reason than I just cannot imagine Steve McQueen agreeing to be involced with anything named Baa-Baa (unless it was a toy belonging to one of his children, of course)!
16 out of 20.

To this day I hate S&G.
15/20. Not tooooo bad. 🤔
I think some of the Wanted Dead Or Alive episode titles would make great Simon & Garfunkel songs! 😜

19 out of 20. Thought I knew my S&G songs. Have to check out the song "Sparrow". I knew all the others.
Okay then, one from me: "A SImple Desultory Philippic".
I gotta look that up!
Love the Bob Dylan Diss
I flunked. 😢
14/20! S & G are pretty good.
I bombed this one...5 wrong. They musta put some of S & G's album cuts on there. Some I never heard of...had to guess on half of them.
11/20 - Love the show and the duo! Didn't hear most of those songs or catch the show titles though LOL :)
19/20. Punky's Dilemma? Thought I knew all of their songs.
It is a cut from the 'Bookends" album. Give it a listen sometime out on the Youtube. It has a nice melody, finger-snap rhythm, and the lyrics are playful and open to interpretation.
"Wish I was a Kellogg's Cornflake
Floatin' in my bowl takin' movies,
Relaxin' awhile, livin' in style,
Talkin' to a raisin who 'caisson'ly plays L.A.,
Casually glancing at his toupee."

And if anybody's looking gor it, He Was My Brother is a cut on Wednesday Morning 3 AM.
