Edie Brickell & Paul Simon - Mr. Lee (The Bobbettes Cover)

[@crazyrava97]

My grandmother is Laura Webb she was in the bobettes this sounds so great! I love this

[@crowmedicine4520]

That’s so cool for sharing

[@kathyh.7709]

This woman is as beautiful today as she was back in the 80s. I absolutely LOVE her! She and Paul Simon sound very good together.

[@ManchesterBlackSheep]

I've always thought Edie sounds like she's smiling when she's singing and you can see it's true here. Absolutely wonderful singer and songwriter she is.

[@kevine7414]

I like this observation, it made me smile too. She has a special voice. 🙂🙏🏻

[@guitarplayer4429]

You know the ol saying, what I am is what I am.

[@sunnieemerson6814]

I think she smiles TOO much and that it distracts from the music and her connection with Paul.

[@billhealey2060]

First time viewing Edie and Paul together - pure fun!

[@mademoiselledusfonctionell1609]

The first time I saw them together was the court thing. That was also pure fun. Her smile when she said that he was no threat to her. Ha ha! (I know about arguments. They can get out of hand even if you love the person you are having them with.)

[@rickyblackburn-n9e]

Really good. Paul Simon really hit the jackpot with Edie.

[@jasonraymond7907]

Wrong, there's no luck involved, this is the definition of hypergamy. A man of high status, has his choice of women.

[@rickyblackburn-n9e]

@@jasonraymond7907 Well, aren't we the high priest of semantics? Okay, I'll agree with you, to an extent. My overarching point is that I think she's quite the babe. Even you'll have to agree she's a bit above his head. Some guys have all the luck. Oops, sorry.

[@jasonraymond7907]

@@rickyblackburn-n9e Yes, I agree, she is very attractive for 58 year old woman. And I believe we agree that she would never be married to Paul Simon the short 82 year old "warehouse worker" only Paul Simon the "music legend" who is worth more than 200 million. There are very few high status men but a lot of attractive women, she hit the "Jackpot" figuratively and literally.

[@ReginaWells-f9h]

Ha ha!

[@lexikera83]

Yeah but she would also not be married to him If he was a rich manager or whatever. They're obviously share a passion for things like music and enjoy each other's company ​@@jasonraymond7907

[@Hadrhune0]

Please forgive my ignorance: I've just discovered they're married. And once discovered I pictured them in my mind living a life of music and singing together, then searched for a video together and... was not disappointed. Gosh, they're wonderful and Edie's voice is heavenly. Love them.

[@Taratreehugger]

Same with me. I’ve been a fan of both of them separately!

[@incantationsbykaryn]

I'm so happy they are still married, I've been listening to them both for a million years❤️

[@fredthejunkman]

I like them both, but I never thought Edie was that good a singer. I grew up listening to Paul - a tremendously talented man.

[@g.r.bilyeu4226]

Cutest couple in the history of music... LOL

[@jeanluc1313]

I picture Edie wildly riding Paul

[@lharb704]

I don't think we've seen Edie performing in awhile, she's as charismatic as ever and of course Paul Simon is one of best singer/songwriters of all time. I really enjoyed this!

[@Mark-v7y8t]

I see zero charisma here.

[@ellap4235]

My dad wanted this played at his funeral. Yes, he was a Mr. Lee. My sisters and I sat on the first pew and just giggled. Such a fun song.

[@johnswinburn8528]

New respect for Paul Simon....the guy has landed an amazing woman

[@RO8s]

They've been married thirty years now! Look at the song above again - doesn't she just adore him? It's like looking at JJ Cale and Christine Lakeland singing together. In both those cases it is almost frightening how deeply women love!

[@stephenedgecock]

he was arrested for beating the shit out of her lol

[@candelise]

All true, now let's hear someone complain about the age difference.​@@RO8s

[@deaterk]

@@candelise- Way to be positive! 👍🏼✌🏼

[@candelise]

@@deaterk Yes, I know. However, considering the nature of our wonderfully 'enlightened' times these days, I cannot help but be curious to see how many negative comments on other people's happiness would occur.

[@peach495]

That was wonderful, & just look at her face as she performs, just wonderful.

[@paradisefilms3355]

She brings smiles to the songs!

[@TimothyGreenwood707]

What a breath of fresh air. Seeing people happy in love and makin music together. Most Awesome

[@themastroiannis]

in....love?

[@globalheartwarming]

Married since 1992!

[@DrGaryGreen]

After all these years, she still sounds great and beautiful as ever.

[@MervinGeulerHere]

Amazing!!!!! ❤❤❤

[@wsmak1814]

2 Guitars, 2 great vocals, perfect harmony, what more can one ask for! :)

[@ontheruntonowhere]

A cup.

[@mandomtn1962]

The world is lighter because of your gift Paul. Thank you for your words and melody.

[@tamething1]

Love Paul Simon - one of the greatest song-writers of all time 💗

[@seanrichards9569]

It was quite a few years ago now but I was the house sound engineer at a venue where Edie played a very rare show. Band was AAA, and everyone just super relaxed and nice. Just an all around classy and easy going bunch of folks.

[@timmcquerry6068]

Good to see Paul Simon , looking healthy and happy 😊. One of the most talented song writers of our time!

[@bertram2505]

THE most.

[@ontheruntonowhere]

@@bertram2505 It's not a competition.

[@photopicker]

Such a classic beautiful pairing of talents and loves. So happy for the happy that runs in your world. And sharing it with us.

[@bretfisher7286]

I'm very happy for the two of them! I wish them every happiness. Edie Brickell is absolutely adorable-- the picture of sweet and creative femininity.

[@jojo6028]

Paul unlocked TOTAL HAPPINESS.. How many of us can say this?

[@rodbreslin383]

You two should make an album together. I truly enjoy seeing and hearing you both preform together. Pure Talent from both of you.

[@tsopuaifa]

The most wonderful couple. The look like they're still in love and enjoy the joy of music. I was in love with Edie back in the early 90's and are falling again.

[@JennyYasi]

Lovely! Great to hear Edie Brickell! And with Paul Simon is super fun.

[@chepad1]

I can’t express in words how happy this makes me

[@mikeconner4773]

Most excellent.

[@mikelplac]

Edie i love your voice. i'am your admirer in Brazil. Thank You about your beautifull songs, especially with Paul Simon.

[@timfronimos459]

Absolutely beautiful. I have new old crush on Edie. You and Paul could cover classic songs like like all day long and I'll be listening.

[@fk2106]

Lulu Simon (their daughter) is also a singer with a great voice!

[@claudiaiselaestrada5270]

Wow que voces tan hermosas y armoniosas así sería escuchar a los ángeles en el cielo saludos y bendiciones desde México 🇲🇽🙏😇👍🎼

[@MichaelGerard-t2i]

His voice is still impeccable.

[@sanja12]

great voices ! Perfect blend❤❤

[@VallinSFAS]

THIS is my new standard of a Happy Marriage 😍🎸🎙💖

[@DollyFoster312]

My husband is a Mr. Lee, one of my favorite songs! Thanks

[@billtuttle809]

JUST LOVE THE WHOLESOMENESS OF THIS VIDEO!

[@stoneageprogrammer432]

I've been completely madly in love with Edie since I was like 14. First time Ive ever heard her and Paul play. This is great.

[@lorilxn1597]

Love your music Edie, also absolutely love Paul💙

[@thebenny6785]

I don't know how I stumbled on this but I'm glad I watched it. Good stuff.

[@brendavisceglia9034]

Waiting for a few albums from Edie Brickell...Edie Brickell and the New Grass Revival & Orchestra, Edie Brickell and Steve Martin - song of happiness, Edie Brickell - singing songs by Paul Simon (however she wants to sing them). Just love her joy, her voice, her resonance, her quirk, her delivery.;..magnificent musician.

[@monoped8437]

new bohemians?

[@jonnuanez7183]

Her voice still sounds so beautiful, maybe better than from decades ago. Their home sing alongs must be tons of fun.

[@rudetunes6564]

Love Paul..makes me smile to see him playing with his wife. Thats beautiful.

[@ChadWoolley]

Love this. Great cover. When I was a young child, I had this song on an 8-track of 50s hits that I would listen to over and over.

[@dianabraley8307]

They make it look so easy. Love Paul & Edie. My favorite album of Paul’s is Graceland. Brilliant!

[@liz51765]

I just love this. It’s all joy and beauty and a gentle spirit that is an overflow of their gentle hearts. Two amazing talented musicians that paint such a vivid story in our mind. How many of you see a picture of “Mr. Lee” in your mind’s eye?

[@sfdungeon]

OMG At Last You Two Made This Song Sooo Fine !!@@@ thank you. Do More Please!

[@nicoleorton5299]

I can’t love this song and performance any more!! Thank you both so much!!

[@Flyingtaco82]

I love this with all my heart!!!!!!❤️

[@Buc_Stops_Here]

I am amazed this even happened. Paul Simon announced his last album in 2016, and the end of his touring in 2018. Here it is in 2021 and although he is retired he did this one song with his wife Edie Brickell. True love at its finest. Like this short one song.

[@rabbitfishtv]

And he’s put out an album since then.

[@Buc_Stops_Here]

@@rabbitfishtv Nothing like the previous albums but true. He played all the instruments, did the songs himself, and it is only 7 songs. "Seven Psalms" it is called. David Bowie did something similar right before he died. I hope this is not the same for Paul Simon.

[@doowoppyify]

Amazing.

[@brianeddy41]

Wholesome overload!

[@kidsmoked]

Such talented performers - so good to see you playing together.

[@carolliz4278]

This is charming in so many ways. Not the least is Edie's guitar playing! I must watch it twice a day.

[@polytheneprentiss1534]

Omigosh, Paul and Edie are soooo cuuuuutteee!! Love this and love them!! 😍😍 Remember this song from the Stand By Me soundtrack 😊

[@bartofilms]

This made my week. I love Edie’s and Paul’s music. I also believe that True Love transcends… 😃👍.

[@xaosnox]

Only one microphone in the world could have recorded that. I love seeing people like Paul, Edie, Ann Wilson, and just about anyone who can afford the best putting the Sheer Sphere L 22 to such great use. It was my secret weapon back when Townsend Labs made them, i, but now that UA makes them, they’re everywhere. I’m so happy to see other people enjoying the remarkable sound of these revolutionary mics.

[@wwiiair]

Thanks for sharing, Edie!

[@TheMiracleproducts]

Thank you so much for this joyful performance of one of my favorite 50's records. You brought the same spirit of fun to the song that made The Bobbettes' version a classic.

[@IRgEEK]

My goodness! Thank you for sharing. This is truly wonderful and touched my soul right when I needed it. Thank you kindly.

[@KerryBlue72]

Love it ‼️ more please❤️🤗

[@berlygirl123]

Edie looks great!

[@peppercat8718]

I love this 🥰, thank you for posting ❤

[@marcuspi999]

I want more Edie music. I love everything she's done. We have generations of Paul's music as one of the brilliant and most prolific song writers in history. We get little snippets of Edie, like "What would you do" but I really wish she'd put out more. She's fabulous. I do remember she used to have a website where she would post the hundreds of little songs or parts of songs she came up with and just gave away for free. Maybe that's still up.

[@JerryCappuccino]

Love you Edie...you too Paul😀

[@heynowls3058]

Jerry Cappuccino right on Jerry Cappuccino. We live you Edie. BTW JC, you came before LD!

Read that you and many others didn't know they're hitched. Find their performance at the Gershwins and her/NB SNL gig where he swept her!

That is a beautiful guitar!

[@craigharper1556]

What this is much fun doing as it was for us to watch? Paul’s interview on Howard Stern last month was absolutely amazing. Cheers!

What a joy. It's a mystery to me why I haven't heard this gem before. As my emotions stirred, I listened mistily.

[@MikeFoley]

Edie, you and Paul sound great. Your voice is lovely and brings back great memories. Play more often!

[@InSearchof8]

Amazing voice from Edie!! Still beautiful to hear! Thanks! Mr. Simon needs no introduction, he just is.....
