The back story is touching...

[@AnneloesF]

That made me cry. It is my favourite song, and it was lovely to hear it in a new and beautiful way. Thank you, all!

[@bswgd8]

I'm thankful that I did not see this live because I would have cried in public like a baby. I absolutely love this song. One of my favorite Paul Simon songs, which is an extensive list. Fantastic emotional performance.

[@frandanco6289]

So beautifully arranged and sung, thank you ALL !!! With Love, Dan Franco

[@gudrn]

1:39 gave me chills... Very well performed. :) Cheers from Brazil

[@martunasari44]

Love this beatiful voices

[@joecooper7692]

Let me start out by saying I usually don't like choirs. I also want to say I love the original do how could a choir cover it and do a decent job? This isn't decent, this is beyond amazing! So deep and rich, just beautiful!

[@daveslastchance]

Nice. This is a beautiful song by Simon & Garfunkel.

[@davidhollway]

This is a beautiful arrangement of a song that just grew and grew on me the more I heard it. Now I'm going to seek out more of your recordings on this site. Thank you for posting it and I hope your choir is thriving despite everything that 2020,21 and 22 have thrown at us!

[@piotrhabel2540]

Beautifull! Great! I know the original song and this, this is just so moving, I've got tears on my face. I listen this whole day and I can't stop. Best regards from Poland! :-)

[@dan9064]

What a moving arrangement! Truly incredible.

[@mariag.8242]

Probably by Mark Jenkins, who leads all the groups that make up The Choirs

[@richardnotman787]

Great work!

[@jessebongo46]

Marvellous.

[@kcjones679]

This is fun! Next to the Pigpen Theatre cover, I like this for the relaxing feel and blend. This is the kind of song I imagine a choir aches for.

[@rhymeocerous]

Damn onions

[@norpfuseman1485]

Wow

[@逆井浩一]

素晴らしい！P.S.ビックファンより

[@kyleburke8665]

Good idea, well executed in the arrangement, but with an inexplicable omission of the crucial octave-higher doubling of the submediant resolving to the dominant on “here I am”. I kept listening for it and being disappointed. For me, it contains all of the anxious poignancy of the song.

[@Mandolatron]

Well, I've found Art Garfunkel's KZbin account

[@kyleburke8665]

LOL - my singing voice is rather like his, but no.

[@graememiller3798]

I just thought that it was a nice song

[@frandanco6289]

No one CARES what you think about some "inexplicable omission" !!!!! It's a CHOIR....Bet you don't know what that is either.... :)
