Glad you are doing the studio version of this song. I grew up listening to Simon & Garfunkel & had a lot of their records. Absolutely loved them & their harmonies. You won't find a bad song. They have had so many hits such as "Sound Of Silence", "The Boxer", "Mrs. Robinson", "The 59th Street Bridge Song", "Homeward Bound", "Kathy's Song", "Scarborough Fair", "At The Zoo", "Cecilia", "America", "I Am A Rock", "El Condor Pasa" etc. Paul Simon went on to have a huge solo career with lots of great songs.

My mom, who wasn't religious at all, loved this song, because in her mind, the words describe how the Lord looks after His Children. That has always given me a lot of comfort. I'm not sure that's what Paul Simon had in mind when he wrote it, but I know it has touched a lot of people on a very deep level.

Art Garfunkel was the singer on both the studio version and the live recording(s). Larry Knechtel played the piano part in the studio version. Larry was not only a member of the Wrecking Crew, but also a member of Bread (replacing Robb Royer in 1971), and he often played the "Bridge Over Troubled Water" opening during his introduction at Bread concerts.

The saddest thing about this song is how it destroyed their friendship for years. Paul Simon got really jealous because Art Garfunkel did such a good job singing this. It became so popular that it caused a major rift between them, and they wouldn't even speak to each other for years. Paul didn't like having the spotlight taken off of him. It just shows how jealousy can really destroy relationships.

This was my late father's favorite song. A bit over 8 years ago my sister the ICU nurse called me late evening and told me he had suffered a massive stroke walking home from his volunteer gig at the local hospital and I needed to get there ASAP. Was on the first morning flight from East Coast to California. Docs had pronounced things hopeless and Sis who knows her stuff wasn't disagreeing. All 5 of his kids, their spouses, and 5 more grandkids were there. I was the last to arrive. I pulled up Bridge Over Troubled Waters on my phone, put it to his ear. He had been largely unresponsive but it seemed to me his breathing calmed and his heart rate settled some. We told him we are all there, that we loved him, but his work was done and he could join Mom now. He left us a few minutes later.

There are a few "perfect" songs out there, and this is one of them. Everything is just perfection. This song also brings a tear to my eye. Not just for its beauty, its message - but also how far as a society we've come. And not in a good way. I was still in diapers when it was released, but I remember back in the day you knew all your neighbours, if you needed help, people were there for you. Even if you didn't need help, people were still there. People you didn't know, people you did. Much more of a sense of community. In the end, it's kind of bittersweet for me...but I will choose to let the beauty of the song win today. ❤

They played a free benefit concert in Central Park in 1981 to an estimated crowd of 500,000. Proceeds went toward the redevelopment and maintenance of the park, which had deteriorated due to lack of municipal funding. The concert was filmed for release on VHS tape and as a double album. The incredible Steve Gadd and Grady Tate handled percussion (Gadd was the drummer on several of Paul's albums. There's a remastered video of the 90 min concert on YT, well worth watching with your family.

From the Live Rhymin album, by Paul Simon, Sounds Of Silence with the Jesse Dixon Singers -a gospel version of S&G song. The entire album is great-also features Uru Bamba-S&G songs w/Paul Simon venturing into world music which eventually led to his Graceland album which features African players and sound-that entire album is also great. Live Rhymin and Graceland-virtually any song off those albums (as well as the album you just sampled a song from)

Thank you for reacting to the studio version of the actual Simon & Garfunkel song. The live version you reacted to earlier was just Garfunkel, years past his prime. You commented that his singing voice here "hits different". You were too polite during the song to just say it's better. Plus this version has the short section where Simon adds his voice, this harmony lacking in the live version. Simon is the author, but Garfunkel deserves the acclaim for his vocals.
