In 1970 I was 11 years old, and this song was all over the radio, both AM and FM. You couldn’t escape it, nor did you want to. It was both gentle, and volcanic at the same time. It transports you to places inside your very being. You both heard the build from the opening stanzas, to the final ending. It’s about magnificent as it gets.

Between this and Abbey Road and a number of other stunning releases in that little bunch of years, it’s a good thing we were too young to worry about getting anything practical done. I personally spent about half of my life in the years from about 1970-74 lying on my family’s red shag rug, lost in a pair of earphones.

Met Garfunkel when I was 10. Took guitar lessons with my friend Lou Pearlman, whose parents invited meover for dinner and told me to bring my guitar. When I arrived, Lou introduced me to his cousin Art Garfunkel. I had NO IDEA who he was. We played some guitar and he gave me his autograph that I still have. My friend Lou went on to form NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys.

Rock matured so fast! Other hit songs from 1970: Layla, Let It Be, Your Song, Who'll Stop the Rain, Fire and Rain, Paranoid, All Right Now, Black Magic Woman, Have You Ever Seen the Rain, My Sweet Lord, War, Maybe I'm Amazed, and so many more.

"I think that's Simon". No, that wasn't Paul Simon, that was Art Garfunkel. Later, Paul singing "Sail on Silver Girl" was Paul singing to his girl who had found a grey hair. She was freaked out and he started teasing her calling her silver girl. She later left and this was his goodbye. He was saying he would still be sailing behind her.

Simon and Garfunkle, the GOATS of Duos. Every song on that album is amazing. When reacting to S&G make sure to only do the studio recordings b/c much of the sound is hard to replicate in concert and the instruments are as important as their voices, esp. Art G.(the taller one) whose voice is so silky smooth. Paul Simon is considered a poetic genius and one of the top song writers of the last century. NEXT UP: SOUND OF SILENCE, THE BOXER, HOMEWARD BOUND, CECILIA, MRS. ROBINSON and many more. This song won best song and several more Grammy's in 1972. They broke up not long after this was released after being together such a long time. It was heartbreaking for their fans but they reunited for one concert in Central Park for a free concert in the 80's and it is estimated over 500,000 showed up. The concert is epic. Paul has continued his career writing and performing hit after hit and is still going.

And one of the best parts of Simon and Garfunkel is their blending voices like this, so that you can't tell who is singing what part unless the voice goes above Simon's best range (where Garfunkel stands out) or gets to the middle of Simon's range (where the timbre of his voice reveals itself). In between they seamlessly blend together.

After hearing the Righteous Brothers sing Old Man River, Art suggested to Paul that he expand the original quiet little two verse lullaby that Paul intended, into a three verse Epic that built up to a climax in the third verse. Paul was resistant but Roy Halee, their engineer and co producer, agreed with Artie so Paul went ahead and wrote the third verse in 20 minutes! Paul and Roy worked with Hal Blaine on the percussion elements while Artie sat with Larry Knechtel to work out the Piano arrangement (for which Larry won a Grammy for Best Arrangement 🏆). Clive Davis from Columbia decided right away to put this title track from the album as the first single which surprised both artists. They both thought of it as an album piece rather than a single, both because it had such a quiet start as well as it's length of around 6 minutes. Simon's misgivings were allayed when he first heard it broadcast over the radio. Artie's voice and the musical accomplishment translated well in the low fidelity of most car radios at the time. The rest is history. Many see it as the best popular recording of all time. 10/10

Paul and Art were not related, but you might say they went way back together. Friends since elementary school, they first found a little success as teens in the 1950s, performing under the names Tom & Jerry, with a hit, written by Paul Simon, titled “Hey, Schoolgirl.” A few years later, in the 1960s, they gained traction under their real names with a string of massive hits, including “The Sound of Silence,” “Homeward Bound,” “I Am a Rock,” “Mrs. Robinson,” and “Parsley, Sage, Rosemary & Thyme.” This song was from their fourth and last studio album, also titled “Bridge Over Troubled Water.” This album also included another of their most ambitious songs titled “The Boxer.” The duo broke up a short while later, but they eventually reunited and have performed many times together over the years. Paul Simon went on to a very successful career as a solo singer songwriter.

Simon and Garfunkel were together since high school. In fact under the name Tom and Jerry while in high school they recorded songs that got radio play. There is so much of their music even though they only did 5 albums together. My personal favourite song is For Emily Whenever I May Find Her. If you want to see a song of pure anger expressing hopelessness try Patterns. For resilience and hope in spite of everything against you, The Boxer. And for just pure beauty the studio recording Scarborough Fair/Canticle. Sound of Silence was the first album I ever bought was Sound of Silence and I still know the words to many of the songs, including A Simple Desultry Phillipic (or How I Was Roger Macnamara'd Into Submission)!

But I totally appreciate your comment on the classics. it was really kind of an anthem to the end of the 1960's tumultuous decade of change, even though IMO the 1960's did not end until President Richard Nixon resigned in 1974. to learn the history of the 1960' early 1970's is to understand the music and how it changed and was involved in that change. Really the 1950's didn't end until President Kennedy was assassinated...that upended everything along with a few other things that some politicians are now trying to rewrite history for their own spin and agenda... but I digress....

The music - the bands - of the 70s are just in a class all by themselves - untouchable in music excellence. (Said the lady that turned 18 in 1970) lol I really enjoy you young people checking it out.

The beautiful words and music are from the genius mind of Paul Simon, but the crystal -clear vocals are the great Art Garfunkel. Together, Simon and Garfunkel were one of the greatest duos in all of rock. They covered a number of genres, but their forte was folk rock. Garfunkel shone mostly alone on this song, but their harmonies were what made them so wonderful. Listen to some of their earlier work like "Homeward Bound" or "The Sound of Silence" and you'll be mesmerized.

I can't with you two.😂 Obviously this is a reaction video, so it is supposed to be your first time hearing it. But, you keep saying that you've heard other versions of this song before. I'm sure it has been remade by many, but this is THE version. Like, if you hear the song on the radio or in a movie or TV show, it's Simon and Garfunkel and not anyone else. And when you say it's up there with other versions of the song? Ya definitely lost me, there! Glad that you loved it. I agree with your thoughts on their voices and the music.

I'v loved this song for many many years, Paul Simon wrote the lyrics intending on just two verses then Art Garfunkel said "i think the song needs a third verse because it feels like the end of the second verse is just sitting on the run way ready to take off" and so Paul relented and there you have that beautiful third verse that, in my humble opinion brings it full circle.

Another brilliant song with a similar gospel feel is Paul Simon's "Gone At Last." And instead of Garfunkel's angelic voice, it's Phoebe Snow's angelic voice.

SIMON AND GARFUNKEL, "BRIDGE OVER TROUBLE WATER". Paul Simon wrote this song. Art Garfunkle with one of great Tenor voices I ever heard. Sang the first two verses solo. (Art has the curly blonde afro), Paul joins in the 3rd verse harmonizing (the shorter hair one). As I remember 1970 number one hit for them. More great harmonizing groups. CROSBY, STILLS, AND NASH. KANSAS, AMERICA, YES..z

No it’s Art Garfunkel singing this one. His best. Also try For Emily, Wherever I May Find her. These two songs bring out his best when together as Simon and Garfunkel.😊

I have heard this song performed by gospel singers, it is so more powerful to hear this as a song from God.

Gospel-y. Most compassionate lyrics ever. I pretend it’s Jesus talking to me. And my best friend. Just a perfect song. Used this song to teach my 5th graders similes and metaphors. They really loved it. Sharing music and seeing other reactions is a blessing. Thx for sharing. New subscriber ❤
