Paul Simon Performs “Something So Right” on Colbert

The singer-songwriter delivered a solo rendition of the 1973 deep cut and discussed his creative process ahead of a summer tour.

Paul Simon appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, performing a solo acoustic version of “Something So Right.” The song is a deep cut from his 1973 album “There Goes Rhymin’ Simon.”

In conversation with Colbert, Simon spoke about his songwriting inspirations and creative process. The segment served as a preview for his upcoming “Homeward Bound” tour, which begins in May.

The performance was characteristically understated, focusing on the song’s melodic structure and lyrical intimacy. This television appearance continues Simon’s pattern of selective media engagements centered on specific artistic moments, rather than broader promotional cycles.
