[@chrisrichards3509]

77 years old. Live. No auto-tune. Magic!

[@michaelaldan4354]

this song...the movie...scarred me for life...even now at 50 I can barely listen to this song...but I shiver, the images of the bunnies will forever stay with me,...always whispering in my ear

[@jasoncarroll8013]

Just want to say I feel the same

[@isolde1802]

I can't listen to this song without crying and thinking of those bunnies.

[@JoanneGallacher]

You no what a couldn't believe it was Art! His voice was still the same as it was when he first sang this beautiful song. Amazing song xx❤😢

[@amaiurjarauta969]

I'm stunned. He still has this purity in his voice. That's crazy. Love you Art! Such a mythic artist.

[@kalmia01]

Exactly that, it's purity, no one else ever had it like he does🤍

[@luciamartins1404]

I always loved Art and will love him forever!!!!! What angelic voice!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@brianjimenez7993]

How in the hell does his voice still sound like this!? Amazing.

[@chrismurphy341]

To sound as good as this at 78, a gift handed down by god himself

[@bardo0007]

How old is he now? 82 ? Did he stop singing?

[@lukedrifter100]

If Art dies before me,, I'll truly be sad, absolute precious man ...long live Art ❤

[@cowboykelly6590]

Yes sir, I. Know exactly what you mean my friend . 🤠🖖💖

[@nancybates6585]

Me, too...

[@moodobusiness]

Considering he’s lost some of his vocal chords and his voice for a few years this is a remarkable recovery. I hope you’re well Arty.

[@stevejames5900]

Angelic voice .... still going at 77 ... well done Art.

[@skygazer6898]

could have done so much more had he stayed with the brilliant Paul Simon who provided the most wonderful songs for Art to sing. Garfunkel was always arrogant and rather weird, cos he had a beautiful voice, but alas, he could not write great songs like Bridge Over troubled water..He was jealous of Simon's songwriting skills and of course, cos he earned most of the dosh.

[@laurarawlinson5530]

God bless 🐰🐇❤❤🐇🐰

[@stevedavis6879]

​@@skygazer6898absolute rubbish ! Art was once asked why he didnt write songs, and he simply answered because I just sing them. Hes never made out he can write a song , and as for jealousy I'm afraid you will never know what actually went off but can speculate.

[@skygazer6898]

@@stevedavis6879 Its not rubbish! He was jealous of Simon because he made more money from his writing. you can read up on it if you dont believe me. Anyway, Art's voice is now short to pieces. Goodbye

[@jamiepeters4603]

Still got got an amazing voice.

[@bikkies]

Even though this song stands just fine on its own merits, I'll forever associate this with Watership Down. I watched it as a youngster and was keeping it together just fine, then Mr Garfunkel began singing, and I was done. Bawled my eyes out. More than 40 years later it still destroys me. Such a special song and such a special voice, perfectly paired.

[@memoio8202]

This is amazing !! back in 1978 I was 16 now 61 and all those momments come back to me, I have tears in my eyes and I am not ashame to say this...

Diese Stimme von ART Garfunkel ist eine Gottes GABE, Ja, ein Gottesgeschenk an ihn und für alle anderen, die seine wunderbaren Melodien lieben. Danke Danke Danke für deine Lieder ART, Elisabeth Thessmann aus Bayreuth ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 Das gleiche gilt für deine wundervollen Sohn James, ART Garfunkel Junior, alias James Markov

[@thomasvandervee2308]

Expected to be disapointed when I saw how old he got. But holy cow what a voice he still has!

[@Ryglado]

He did look older after he lost his hair (but he should wear an arty hat!). Looks good for late 70’s, though.

[@jcsieger9648]

@@Ryglado me too

[@geoffjoffy]

He only looks 'old' because he doesn't wear his wig any more.

Can you imagine us years from today, sharing a parkbench quietly How terribly strange to be seventy

How I *love* Art Garfunkel for giving the world this song of peaceful mourning.

[@twelveytwelve]

The song was given to him, but he's performed it well.

[@richardupton3323]

It was written by a English musician call Mike blatt who also wrote the music for the wombles in the 1970s.

[@ros_egli]

A truly remarkable man sooo gifted with his angelic voice...long live Art🎉🎉🎉 God bless him

[@kcvfr400]

that venue is perfect for that style of singing. But its his continued brilliant voice that makes your jaw drop. Most artists adapt their songs after decades, he somehow transports you back to when I first heard it i nthe early 80s

[@galecreek]

A song for the ages. For anyone who has lost or is losing a beloved one. Thank you for giving me a melody for my heartbreak and sorrow. " How can the fire that burns so brightly, suddenly burn so pale?"

[@badekappe4816]

Sounds like a Angel is singing :) Love it!

[@SLR-722]

Moved my heart. From years...

[@gilgandra75]

I saw the movie in the early 80's. I'm 45 now & this song has changed my life.

[@williamdavies6241]

Art Garfunkel is top quality!!!

[@mandoprince1]

Saw him at Glastonbury in 2016, wonderful. Although he can no longer reach some of the high notes, his voice remains a thing of exceptional beauty. He sang, he recited poetry and reminisced about his career and friendship with Paul Simon. The entire audience was enthralled, singing along with all the hits.

[@mosescordovero8163]

wow. what a pleasant surprise. i heard him a few years back, and felt sad that he seemed to have lost the magic that is his voice. but now i see that the magic is back in full force

[@thomasmarthinussen8978]

Angelic! Still pristine sounding in his late 70s!

[@personavicaso688]

OMG... His voice never change. Love Art Garfunkel so much.💖

[@ellepennell3706]

Artie. You still got it and i love it. I have followed you for a long time and I always will. Most amazing man.

Love to hear you sing again. Will always remember those times we all met in NY.

[@Brownpride88]

Amazing to see how he still has his voice! Surely, it’s not like it was in ‘79 but still it’s more than decent and he sounds really good!

[@yvonnesharpe1059]

So beautiful Art. Only a genius can sing like that at that age💜💜💜💜💜

[@Rikbik]

49 Almost 50 and remember this as a kid in Watership Down. Still hitting the chords at almost 80 is a mean feat.

Because he still has bright eyes.

[@andrewbillmarleyschannel06.75]

Many old singers still singing you know, Debbie Harry and Blondie, Status Quo, Paul McCartney, and so on, so dont dismiss older people

[@carloscatalan8295]

ENG: Old or quite old singers can still sing over 70 or 80 years because they live, and have lived (the great majority) without excesses, taking care of themselves. Charles Aznavour sang until around 90 years...The new (current) "singers or artists", their voice will die soon, because they are not really artists or singers, the vast majority have not studied singing or to manage / control their voices well, shouting or having a high-pitched voice does not mean being better artist / singer, even less if they know how to adapt / handle their voice well. There are already young "artists" who sing with the microphone stuck / stuck in their mouth, think if in 20 or 25 years she will have a voice if today she cannot take the microphone out of her mouth ... ESP: Los cantantes mayores o bastante mayores todavía pueden cantar por encima de los 70 u 80 años porque viven, y han vivido (la gran mayoría) sin excesos, cuidándose. Charles Aznavour cantó hasta los 90 años o más...Los nuevos (actuales) "cantantes o artistas", su voz morirá pronto, porque no son realmente artistas o cantantes, la gran mayoría no han estudiado canto o a manejar/controlar bien sus voces, gritar o tener voz de tono alto no significa ser mejor artista/cantante, menos aún sino saben adecuarla/manejarla bien su voz. Ya hay "artistas" jóvenes que cantan con el micrófono pegado/metido en su boca, piensa si en 20 o 25 años más tendrá voz si hoy no puede sacar el micrófono de su boca...
