Classic SONG by one of the best songwriters. I've spent the last year learning 'Bridge Over Troubled Water', since I've experienced all KINDS of troubled waters, having nearly died from a brain aneurism. My mom called both of my brothers and told them to hurry down to California if they wanted to say 'goodbye' to me beFORE I die. "You brother had a brain aneurism, and he's in a coma right now. The neurologist at Torrance Memorial Hospital, Dr. Smita, said her mentor at UCLA Medical Center, Dr. Vespa, could perform a new procedure, but you have to HURRY." Another neurosurgeon somehow found OUT about this new strategy, calls my wife and says, "I've been practicing medicine for 25 year so I know what works, and what doesn't work, and that procedure by Dr. Vespa will NEVER work!" My poor wife responded, "I'm CERTAIN you know more about this than I do, but we don't seem to have much of a choice!" Well, to make a long story short, the procedure DID work, but for the rest of my LIFE, I'm going to be quoted for what I said when I woke up and looked at the weeping woman at my bedside. When the medical team asked my wife of 17 year if I knew who this weeping woman WAS, I responded, "I'm not sure who she is, but I think I like her a lot." (Of course, I had no idea that I SAID this!😝) To hear a miraculous story SPEAKING hope withIN this 'sound of silence', search KZbin for "Charles Frank Kurtz", then spread word that miracles still happen to this very DAY! My being alive to even SAY, "Miracles HAPPEN!" is miraculous!!! (FYI: I now remember who my wife IS!!!🤣)

Paul at his best, such honesty in his delivery - the emotions on the faces around him tell it all. No glitz, no staage lights, just him and his guitar and that lovely song written by him.💖💖💖

This is the contemporary equivalent of Virgil reciting the Aeneid at the ruins of Pompeii. God bless the people of NYC, Paul Simon and all of the great artists NYC has given to the world.

A New York icon, twice now he pulled this off, the other in Center Field at Yankee Stadium. Hard to look classy with a baseball cap and a suit but Paul pulls it off.

All for nothing. We have another insane administration that will cause the end of the f'ing world! Nobody learns from history or songs like this! Nobody! Glad I was not amazing enough to write it and sing it, I would be pissed that nobody learned! I get it and am just disappointed in everyone else.

Those who stayed with the injured and dying unable to leave the North Tower, after the South Tower had already fallen. They stayed so those poor souls wouldn't die alone. This song makes me think of them.

He's one of the very best singer songwriter's that ever come out of America, his songs would move a rock. Paul Simon's music is a gift to this world.

That Paul Simon wrote this song as a young man is so amazing. Most of didn't have a clue about anything and he was writing this song. So glad he did, I will listen to it till I die.

To perform this already very emotive song on a day of such import, surrounded by people still grieving such abominable loss, and to do so with such nuance, is astonishing.
