Bleecker Street - Simon and Garfunkel | Cover ft. Benjamin Cooley

[@pharbreton]

My God, you are both sweet. The world, which is going mad, may find a thin pace towards peace and love, thanks to you, guys. Tears and shivers from France.

[@dianepenney6483]

Amazing job!! You both nailed the harmonies and guitar was spot on!!

[@vulpo]

Wow only $30 paid the rent on Bleecker Street in 1964? Today it would be closer to $3000 in that part of Manhattan. What a difference 60 years makes! 😄 What a great song and what a fantastic performance! I will be replaying this many times.

[@TheJewellian]

god this is good and so great to see young people discovering the old classic work of Simon and Garfunkel.

[@MrBlahdiblahdi]

Excellent work you are doing, Gentlemen. This type of music was once very popular. It brought people together. I believe these songs from the folk rock Era, still have the ability to help people heal from emotional and spiritual pain in our modern era

[@MrBlahdiblahdi]

That's an angel there, my friend you have been touched by an angel

[@deanstienessen6334]

Nice job Gentlemen! I don't think people really understand the difficulty singing that style of music with those kind of harmonies. You guys hit every note and every syllable perfectly. Nice job!!

[@johnnichols51]

Wow you brought tears to these old eyes again . Simon and Garfunkle couldnt be more pleased. Well thats what this old man thinks. Beautiful just beatiful

[@danwheeler5530]

I've always loved this song. I don't know why, but it gives me greater pleasure to see it covered so beautifully than to put the original on again, which I've listened to many times. Gorgeous rendition.

[@brianjs]

I had the same reaction. For me, it's because it means the song continues to live on through two great musicians.

[@davidlacroix6769]

Good to see your still recording with Garfunkel.

Your voices harmonize so well together, and your control of it is superb. Thank you. Greetings from Portugal. 🌻💙

[@lonesomeness-w6h]

In 64 I lived on Bleeker st. ( Artist in Residence) Worked at the Figaro Cafe and cleaned the Gaslight Cafes floors more time than Dylan sang there.. Ran out for Old Turkey for Phil Oaks. Played my songs in Gerdes Folk City saw all the Hoy Poy Sunhose Hendrix Grateful Dead Santana . Heard Thirsty Boots as it was put together by Eric Anderson.

[@suzannelawson9215]

Wow! What a great time you must have had in those days amonst so many great, great folk artists! I have listened to and had albums of all those folk artists. Do you remember by any chance a Canadian folk artist named Bonnie Dobson that may have played those clubs back in the early and mid 1960's?

[@sharons5416]

Absolutely perfect!

[@trentdahl8021]

These guys are beyond awesome. True an absolute musicians. Most of they're stuff is so awesome it made tears well up.....that's what music is supposed to do.

[@aarflow1]

Dang, didn’t know Mark Zuckerberg could croon like that 🙌 🙃in all seriousness this is my favorite song in the universe to do a duet to, and my favorite cover I’ve ever heard of it, and I’ve heard all of them! 😮 thank you so much! Going to be performing this at open mics with friends based on this 🙏🏽

[@nnahler]

I need more Ben Cooley in my life!

[@patrickwebster2302]

My god... this is third track I’ve heard from you tonight. You guys are incredible

[@gerrydeviller1089]

That was awesome! Thank you! More Taylor and Ben please!

[@kentthompson9504]

Mr. Bloom , Mr. Cooley WOW !!!

[@amramjose]

Great job, my favorite song on that S&G album!

[@johnzicha1785]

Harmonies are ON POINT!!!!!

[@patrickblaney]

Considering that Pail Simon and Art Garfunkel are both 79 years of age (and both will be 80 before year end), we're very lucky to have you two. 🙂 This may not be Paul Simon's best song, but I think it's the most poetic lyrics he ever wrote and I love the Simon and Garfunkel songs that are sung in harmony all the way through, like this and Wednesday Morning, 3 AM.

[@axsirlotl4334]

My favourite and a much underrated s&g song

[@richardthurfield8154]

Your show in DC was the last thing we saw before the big shut downs. We actually ended up fishing one of the big marquee posters out of the trash at the theater and now it hangs in my music room.

[@nycdude999]

Beautiful harmonies. Thanks Ben and Taylor.

[@greenGaming_uk]

Great to see and hear Ben and Taylor together again ..great song..love to you all keep safe

[@Gerry2210]

Nothing I can add to what’s been said, absolutely beautiful, brings back so many memories. Thanks.

[@david-hw1ju]

Ben is wonderful- he has a beautiful quality - a shy guy too which makes him even more attractive

[@ronaldszudy8184]

Music and beautiful singing that soothes a weary soul. Thank you, talented young gentlemen.

[@ScottPenick]

Incredible.

[@TheMrSpoons]

Such a great, no, perfect cover of one of my favourite songs. You are the reincarnation of Simon & Garfunkel!!

[@blonchie4724]

Outstanding. Perfectly balanced.

[@rolandbonini15]

Bravo les gars, bravo !

[@brandonpodos1539]

Another great cover. Wish you guys could play at the Warner Theater in Torrington CT. Be a sell out.

[@patrickblaney]

Fun fact:. On more than one occasion,both the NYC Department of Transportation and the MTA have erected signs misspelling "Bleecker Street" as "Bleeker Street". Fortunately, neither has ever misspelled it "Bleaker Street". It's astonishing to me that the land on which Bleecker Street was originally built was part of the Bleecker family farm until 1808, when Anthony Lispenard Bleecker deeded a strip of land from the farm to the City. Given that Manhattan is pretty.much fully developed up to the George Washington Bridge (except Central Park, of course), I'm surprised there were still farms that recently in what's now the East Village.

[@belascialoja4812]

Cool, Patrick. Thanks!

[@markwinechairman]

Angels singing...thank you!

[@deborahchapman222]

Fabulous!! You certainly do S&G music plus you had add a freshness to it. Thank you for doing this. 🥰🥰

[@Irishmist1000]

That was just fantastic. I never thought a cover, could sound as good as the original, you've won me over. 😊

[@dunhillmax8134]

Fog's rollin' in off the East River bank Like a shroud it covers Bleecker Street Fills the alleys where men sleep Hides the shepherd from the sheep Voices leaking from a sad cafe Smiling faces try to understand I saw a shadow touch a shadow's hand On Bleecker Street A poet reads his crooked rhyme Holy, holy is his sacrament Thirty dollars pays your rent On Bleecker Street I heard a church bell softly chime In a melody sustaining It's a long road to Canaan On Bleecker Street Bleecker Street

[@matushorvath]

It's crazy how much you sound like Simon and Garfunkel. Their voices matched perfectly, and so do yours.

[@benettizemaria6708]

Congratulation...for the thu.

Taylor Bloom do you listen to more modern music too? Feel like you could smash “level of concern” by twenty one pilots. They’re unbelievably talented and creative, think the song would suit you
