John Legend at North Sea Jazz Festival in Rotterdam, playing an amazing cover version of Simon & Garfunkel's "Bridge over troubled water". I was in the audience and it was magical.
Thanks to NTR for this fantastic video!

For a very short period of my life methamphetamines were my bridge. Now, thank God, living my authentic life as a recovering addict is my bridge. To all those suffering, find a new bridge. A new path is ahead!

Meth. is only a temporary escape from your problems, only to have your demons appear and torture you on earth. I am so happy you didn't burn your bridges. May god continue to bless you with good health, a good life, and a reason to live.

I’ve loved this song my whole life. But I found myself listening to it often, seemingly constantly when I lost my sister. Some are luckier than others, but we’ll all eventually experience a loss we don’t expect, or maybe even one that we do. This song somehow helped me. And I hope it does you and others.

I would describe my late mother as probably the best in the world but lost her about 3 years but I celebrate her life rather than mourn her death so please think about the great times you had together. It is only the body which is gone but her soul lives on. May the great God ease your pain.

Rest in Heaven, my dear husband. For 42 years God shared you with this world, but he saw that you needed healing and rest. I will forever carry your spirit in my heart....for you were always my bridge over troubled water. From high school sweethearts, to college sweethearts, to loving hubby & wife, to loving parents....I enjoyed being the other half of your equation for 26 years. You are gone too soon! Save a seat in heaven for me....

ThriftyDiva317 42 years young... is way too soon! 💔❤ 2 years since you posted this comment, and hopefully time has helped to ease your pain! I cannot imagine losing someone so loved and so special- a husband, sister, GOD FORBID a niece or nephew.. mother- I can't imagine not having her. I've only ever lost my grandparents and it was beyond devastating, but as sick as she was I was grateful to have had her in my life for 14 years! 26 years, having a child, sharing a life together is absolutely amazing. & obviously, you had a wonderful time. I'm so sorry you've had to grieve the loss of someone whom you loved so dear! I pray time HAS helped to ease the emptiness, and some of the sadness also. Your comment so beautifully touched my heart! Said a prayer for you! Glad he is at peace and Resting, and thankful in your reassurance that is where he is!!! Much love to you & child(ren)..❤❤

For 30 years I could not listen to this song, now I can once again and this time with happy memories. God rest your beautiful soul my brother Simon, I know you are up there waiting to open the gates of heaven for me when my time comes and then we will meet again. I love you more today than I ever did. And thank you John Legend for such a beautiful way for me to reconnect with my brother once again.

@@ianmostowy4582 It makes no difference as to the color of the singers' skin when I interpret this version of the song as soulful because this song was meant to be sung soulfully. If Josh Groban, Elvis, Simon and Garfunkel, or Aretha Franklin sang the same song and the audience reacted the way they did to John's version, I would still think it was soulful.

He is superb!! But sometimes I don't think people understand why he is so good. He has beautiful tall vowels or nicely rounded ones when needed. He doesn't hang out on the consenants like so many pop singers do. He makes vowels king. So it's pure and beautiful and able to be understood words wise. I watch his face stretch in all the appropriate manners like every choir instructor I have ever had tell me to do. My 90 year old client likes the sound of his voice (Classic crooner meets R%B) but appreciates that he can understand all of John's words. He is perfection. But more than that he is angelic. May his career be long lived!!!

When you're weary Feeling small When tears are in your eyes I will dry them all I'm on your side When times get rough And friends just can't be found Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down When you're down and out When you're on the street When evening falls so hard I will comfort you I'll take your part When darkness comes And pain is all around Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down Sail on Silver Girl Sail on by Your time has come to shine All your dreams are on their way See how they shine If you need a friend I'm sailing right behind Like a bridge over troubled water I will ease your mind Like a bridge over troubled water I will ease your mind

"Bridge over troubled water" performed by John Legend holds a new meaning for me now 🙌🏼🎹🎶 My mom's lifelong and best friend Gunnar has always been there in my life... This was the last song we listened to and practiced together before he suddenly died from cardiac death last Sunday. He loved this voice & piano performance, and I am so thankful for the powerful and meaningful moments we've shared. They were full of music. He only turned 54 y/o. The good always die young! Rest in peace, Gunnar. You remain an inspiration for my life. 🥹🫶🤍 You are missed!

I remember seeing John Legend for the first time... It was at Slims on 11th St. He said, "a lot of ya'll don't know who I am, do you?" Then he started singing short versions of all these really popular songs, and the crowd started singing along and cheering and then he said, "yeah, I wrote all of them!" What a cool night! I've been a fan ever since.
