    Every time I hear Paul and Art sing one of their songs I think that’s my favourite song of theirs. Then I hear them sing another song then that song becomes my favourite, but the truth is I just love all their songs. They’re all my favourites.

    I dont like to be one of those finger pointers and age is with everyone, but ever since I heard this song in 1968 Ive thought about it and now paul simon is 70 today, and still going well.

    There Harmony together can make anything sound good. I remember being a kid long ago sitting on the living room floor in front of the television just mesmerized by their voices singing along with the guitar. Especially when they did Scarborough Fair.

    I am always a little amazed to see great artists like these guys have such a deep perception of life at such a young age as they were when this song was written. A timeless classic. Thanks for posting this video I really enjoyed it!

    These two are connected in their souls, for all they may fight against it. And our world is a more beautiful place for their connection. And what a terrible loss that they split up, as friends and partners. I've beeen a fan of Simon and Garfunkle since the 60's, and I still dont understand why they went their separate ways. Each in thier own right is talented, but together they are a masterpiece!

    • @kalmia01
      @kalmia01 Před rokem

      So true, connected in their souls.
      It's not so strange they separated many times, for all the reasons that life brings in the equation, but a similar bond - soul mates - always remains, and will live on in their music❤️

    "Paw-el" that's how he says Paul. They certainly were very very good. I wish we still had talented celebrities these days...kinda embarressing and sad to think that a lot of our musical idols aren't as talented as our parent's musical idols....

    @alanhatch Před 14 lety +1

    There is a Garfunkel line in the song that sings about them not imagining sitting on a park bench together when they are 70.
    That actually happens next year! Both turn 70 in 2011. They need to be reunited on some show to sing this song together.

    i never realized that the two parts are reversed in the 2nd half of this song. paul sings the high part and art the lower in the last verse. i also realize that when you are a kid, you don't pay a lot of attention to who sings what - that takes time, usually.

    So gut wie keine Band von heute könnte nur annähernd so unglaublich brilliant klingen wie Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel
    Die Musik von damals hatte ein viel höheres Niveau als die heutige Musik. Die 2 Hauptgründe dafür sind meiner Meinung nach das die Musik damals eine viel tiefgründigere Bedeutung hatte als die heutige und weil es damals um das wesentliche ging. Um die Musik. Und nicht der ganze Mist aussen herum

    My ex-best friend who was my maid-of-honor at my wedding and who proceeded to steal my husband from me two years later once said during our friendship that she could see us in this song; that's how we would be . . . then she stabbed me in the back. . . my mom told me at our reception to watch out for her because she is in love with Gene (my husband). My MOTHER told me that at the reception after the wedding!!! Wish I had listened to her . . . .

    um simon and garfunkel are not gay, they are both married and both had several girl freinds during thier time, God, just because two men sing together and have a close freindship doesent mean their gay, thoughts like that is whats wrong with the world.
