Harry Chapin’s “Taxi” squeaked past Simon and Garfunkel’s “The Sound of Silence” in the readers’ vote of last week’s installment of “100 Songs Every Long Islander Should Know.”

However, the light voting turnout last week wasn’t enough to push Chapin into the overall Top 5. For those keeping track at home, the current standings among readers are: 1. Straylight Run, “Your Name Here (Sunrise Highway)” 2. Billy Joel, “The Downeaster 'Alexa'” 3. The Weather Girls, “It's Raining Men” 4. The Movielife, “Jamaica Next” 5. Bayside, “Montauk”
