With the arrival of April, I felt the timing was right to cover this Simon & Garfunkel classic. This is a tutorial for the live version performed at the Central Park concert - JT
"April Come She Will" is a song by American music duo Simon & Garfunkel from their second studio album, Sounds of Silence (1966). It originally appeared on the solo album The Paul Simon Songbook. It is the B-side to the hit single "Scarborough Fair/Canticle". It is included on The Graduate soundtrack album and was additionally released on the "Mrs. Robinson 'EP'" in 1968, together with three other songs from The Graduate film: "Mrs. Robinson", "Scarborough Fair/Canticle", and "The Sound of Silence".
The song was written in 1964 while Paul Simon was in England. Its lyrics use the changing nature of the seasons as a metaphor for a girl's changing moods. The inspiration for the song was a girl that Simon met and the nursery rhyme she used to recite, "Cuckoo". It is the shortest song on the album.
April, come she will
When streams are ripe and swelled with rain
May, she will stay
Resting in my arms again
June, she'll change her tune
In restless walks she'll prowl the night
July, she will fly
And give no warning to her flight
August, die she must
The autumn winds blow chilly and cold
September, I'll remember
A love once new has now grown old
Simon & Garfunkel filled my childhood with their melodies; although I was born in the late 80's.
Simon's mastery of guitar and Garfunkel's nightingale voice are things I will remember as long as I live.
Oh man, what memories have you brought back!
I love your channel, thank you! 🥹❤️
Thanks so much Barbara. Your words about S&G are very moving. I hope you don’t mind but I will pin your beautiful comment so others may appreciate.😎🎸✌️☮️

Oh Judge This is so exceptionally played and sung my friend. 😍😍😍 beautiful my friend 😃👍
Thanks so much Karl - seemed like a perfect song to kick off April.😎🎸✌️
Yess! Great choice from the greatest singer/songwriter. May you try Old Friends or Only living boy in NY. Thanks now I got to go back and relearn American Tune 🤓✌️
American Tune is absolutely gorgeous. I have messed around with it from time to time but never mastered it. I may give it another go.😎🎸✌️
Great sounding cover that sounded like Paul playing the guitar. Big like my friend.
Thanks Ken. Paul is such a talented guitarist and marvelous composer.😎🎸✌️
Nice one thanks for the tutorial 👍
This song is so poetic :) I love Simon & Garfunkel and like you say Paul Simon was a great guitarist. I found this fascinating, I will try following along tomorrow when I've got more time. I want to get back into finger picking again, I've been neglecting my guitar in favour of my keyboard for the past few years :(
Thanks STG! Finger picking is not my forte but I find myself doing it more and more these days. Since I do not play keyboards I am able to focus on guitar. Every once in awhile I strum a ukulele. I hope the lesson is helpful.😎🎸✌️
Bellissima canzone di S & G!! ed eccellente il tuo tutorial!! Bravissimo e grazie! Sono Antonio, from Fossalta di Piave - provincia di Venezia (Italy). Ciao
Thanks Antonio! I hope to visit Italy someday.😎🎸✌️
More great artists on your channel! Welcome Art and Paul! Cool! Playing style reminds me a little bit on John´s favourite picking style. So there is the connection to The Beatles. By the way, today it´s snowing in Germany. Typical April weather here. So Paul´s "Winter Bird/When Winter Comes" fits more the mood i´m in right now ;-) I miss the sun! Have a great weekend Tim!
When I think of snow I think of “Footprints” from Press to Play… If you are not familiar, listen to “The Late Great Johnny Ace”’ to hear Paul Simon’s moving tribute to John. He even played it at the Central Park concert. Stay warm, spring is coming!😎🎸☮️✌️
A beautiful version of this, Judge!👍😎👍 I haven't heard this song in many years. Great job, bro!💗
I hope you and your family have a happy weekend, even in difficult times. 🇺🇦☮
Peace and brotherhood 😃🎸🙏💗🌏 ☮
Mac (aka RE-VO)
Glad you enjoyed Mac and stay well.😎🎸✌️☮️

Nice cover Judge 👏👍😊🎶🎷
Beautiful song Judge, and great timing, Bravo mon ami 😊🎶💕👍
Thanks Hugo. It’s a lovely song and always been a favorite. Cheers.😎🎸✌️
@@judgetimbers588 Thanks to you Judge, see you☺️
Wow JT! this was great.. a tough one to sing but you nailed it! great lesson too!
Thanks so much. I usually play this one in G without a capo! But then I rewatched the Central Park performance and saw Paul played it at capo 3 and decided to do it that way. Cheers my friend.😎🎸✌️
@@judgetimbers588 This song reminds me of another they did .. cant think of the name though.. I'll look
very nice song by S&G. You interpreted it very nicely my friend. I like it . Best regards ...
Peter, your recent fantastic S&G medley inspired this rendition, so thank you.😎🎸✌️☮️
@@judgetimbers588
lol judge . after hearing you i thought about recording kathy's song. it's very similar! Best regards...
@@PetersJukebox - Please do.
Hey My Friend, you talk very fast, I'm not chasing you running...go slow so I can digest what you're saying frend...but you're handsome.😂🤣🤭🙏😚

@@Billsingsong - just did Bill - you are very talented. Really enjoyed Norwegian Wood and Watching the Wheels. Perhaps it’s time to start up your channel again?😊
@@judgetimbers588 Thank you very much Judge! I too am a big Beatles fan as you are plus there’s solo careers as well. It was good to see you out there performing their songs.
