"Graceland" is the title song of an album released in 1986 by Paul Simon. The song features vocals by the The Everly Brothers.

The song was inspired by a visit to Graceland, Elvis Presley's estate in Memphis, Tennessee. Simon, in the Graceland Classic Albums video, has said that he considers it the best song he has ever written.

In the song, Simon describes traveling to Graceland with his nine-year-old son. He also describes his wife's leaving him and what she told him about losing love.
