Blowing In The Wind has to at least contend for the honor. I suspect more people would go for it. The songs are different. One’s meaning is complex & not competely clear. The other is perhaps Dylan’s simplest song as far as meaning, but with a timeless quality. I happen to like Simon & Garfunkel better than Dylan……
I’m just a teenager who has only this year discovered Simon and Garfunkel. The more I listen to their music and return to watch these videos, the more I envy those who were able to experience them live and in their prime. I truly believe my generation will never get to see a duo of this talent - it’s bittersweet.
I'm a registered nurse at a nursing home and this is one of my patient's favorite songs. I always play music for my patients during medication pass. This patient does not speak much so when he asked me if I could play this song for him, I was a bit surprised. When this song is playing, this guy who doesn't talk much, will belt it at the top of his lungs and just smile, and it always brings tears to my eyes. You can tell that he's just remembering back when he was younger. We've made it our daily routine now. I love every aspect of my job, but getting to see my patients happy and smiling is the best reward ever!
My father whom was a big country western lover, introduced this to me as a kid. Turned my whole love of listening to different music! Thanks dad. Love you and miss you.
Listened to this creative,beautiful master piece and emotional song years 40yrs ago while growing up. This generation should embrace and learn more from beautiful poetic music
Well, I suppose you could call pitch correction a gimmick of sorts. Not quite, but it's certainly something that is separate from talent. Someone should have tuned Simons guitar instead of Garfunkels vocals.
+Nevil It's astonishing to me that some people deny or can't hear it. It is so obviously corrected in some fashion. However, that doesn't mean they endorsed or asked for it - there's precedent for pitch correction to be applied by whoever mixes a live performance for DVD, annoying the singer in question who had no idea it was going to happen. Let's hope they went out raw to the audience at least. That guitar, though. Eeeesh.
They gave the world one of the greatest songs we will ever know. I hope they can find peace and friendship with eachother again someday. Even if they don't make anymore music together. The artists they once were together deserve to be at peace.
My dad introduced me S&G at my age of 7. Oh Lord, time passed 42 years now. Thankfully, listening this precious sound with my gorgeous three daughters now.
i swear they are like wine, the older they get the greater they become. i always loved the studio/younger version of this song but i love this so much better, and it's live! these guys are legends and will hopefully last for generations to come
Honestly, I think that smile was when Simon changed chords/positions on the fretboard of the guitar, and was clearly out of tune. But they go for it. What can you do? Lol.
fairly positive garfunkels voice is being tampered with in this performance if i remember rightly his voice had declined by this point could be wrong though
Simon and Garfunkel never came to my part of the world but I was lucky enough to hear and see Paul Simon perform this song live. He had a big band on the tour but at the end came out on his own and played Sound of Silence. The 10,000 crowd were completely silent. A great moment for all of us there.
I am eighty years old, and I was around when this was written and performed by Simon and Garfunkel. It was a masterpiece then and is just as powerful today. I read that Paul Simon wrote this awesome song by himself, but I don't know that for sure. Anyway, whoever wrote it is a genius, and they foretold the future in so many lines in the song, that it is a prophetic creation. I loved it when I was a young man, and I still do at 80.
The first time I heard this song I was 9 years old. A rare day home from school. My brother Jim had his own record player. I carefully placed the album on the turntable and listened. This song touched my 9 year old heart and has always. I read the lyrics and felt/feel joy when I heard/hear or read them. Silence, without scratching the album.
When my mother passed in 1973 at the age of 48 with 7 children 6 under the age of 21. We went to live with my sister in Alexandria Virginia. She played this song to us all the time. She taught me how to sing live love and to learn most of all peace for everyone I came to meet know and love. She helped raise 6 young children all at the tender age of 24. She is my sister Kathleen S. Pattison ( Giardina now). Thank you Simion and Garfunkel for your beautiful beautiful music.
Same here. Classic music is also in my playlist, For somereason classic and metal combine to make the most beautifull work. Whe else do metal singers make the best ballads?
Most of metal music comes from these songs because we all metalheads have the same goal. Peace and lot of great music. that´s only my opinion, I have listened hundreds of metal/rock bands and their message is clear. We are freaks, but we still understand each others and we are united! I actually liked "disturbed" version because they "updated the song" but only paul and art made it happen so. :D Sometimes we just don't wanna hear the bombs, maybe that´s the sound of silence :)
This touched me 21. I'm now 71 and it will touch me for the rest of my life. Sound of Silence song is one of the most deep and emotional songs in my life time. Thank you Simon & Garfunkel !
This was my grandfathers favorite song. I clearly remember coming home from school one day & walking through the door to my mother sitting on the floor & this song playing as she sobbed & sang along. My grandfather passed away that day. I was only 6 but this song brings his & now my mothers face & memories back to me. I will forever be grateful for the music in my life & the Amazing artists that shared their incredible talent with us all. 😊
@@estherkibui3710 It truly is amazing. It's the closest you can get to a time machine. Put on a song, close your eyes & go back to experience those precious moments all over again.
No wild band, no half naked woman, no blinding lights. A guitar and two very talented artists Simon and Paul made the world a bit better to live in. Thanks God for giving talents to them.
@@williamguy786 Thank you and God Bless you! When real musicians like Fleetwood Mac, The Eagles, ABBA and others are gone, and all we have left is this Rap Garbage. The world will come to an end. And Satan has won. God have mercy on us all.
+IceAssassin10 same here. Born September 2002 And I grew up listening to pop, but then my dad showed me his music, rock n roll, and I loved it so much. To this day, I love rock n roll and I hate pop.
+Nick Dearman Well, I respect your opinion, but you shouldn't hate ALL pop. I mean, there are still good pop songs out there, it's just hard to find :/
This song is a double gut punch for me. My dad and I use to sing this together; he passed away in 2006. It's already a depressingly hopeful song, but it brings back memories.
+Talia Carney About 1000 years ago an illiterate Chinese general said something that has stuck with me. "You are never truly dead as long as the living remember you." Think about that whenever you think of your dad.
There is new good music nowadays, it's just the big corporations which used to promote good music, only promoting the worst fucking music imaginable today.
Who's playing this in 2021 like me? Memories of those far-off day? Memories tinged with sadness ? Reminiscences and Memories crowded your mind? Long lost friend? or heyday of your life? or may be we all have our own Sound of silence in our souls... I want hear your stories.
This song is still haunting …. ❤ it’s so beautiful , it will be around for many years to come. EVERY-TIME I hear it ,it reminds me of the film with Dustin Hoffman, THE GRADUATE. Brilliant film too…… one of my all time favourites .
Toute ma jeunesse on traduisait les paroles un bon exercice d'anglais nos tendres années sont Simon et Garfunkel géniale et indémodable chanson et d'autres encore magnifique !!
+Ren Flexx I think I beat you all. I was born in 1945 and I experienced the full force of the sounds of the 60s. This is great writing, great musicianship, great voice harmony and words that are simple but great literature. The words are nearly Biblical in their simplicity, wisdom and insight. In my youth I got the chance to see and hear the two of them alone on a stage accompanied only by Simon's guitar. Stuff like this does nor come along every day. When it does there is only one word to describe it - PURE MAGIC!
@ Crying Clown The fact that I am reading your comment randomly 4 days later is amazing ! Yes, I too am frozen in time as a wee infant 1964 / 1965 era. Sounds of joy....over the AM radio during those days !!
Listening to these melodies takes me back to a beautiful time, reminiscing about the past and present. It reminds me of many memories of my youth, old love hahaha!! The 80s: the golden era of music
Actually, no pure talent at all. They use autotune throughout the whole song, and at some parts it's extremely noticeable. I'm expecting a lot of hate at my comment, but as much as I hate it, they really use autotune at this concert.
boy this is pure voice. just because newer artists use it doesn't mean everyone does like David gimour from pink floyd, they have retained the ability to hit notes. at different octaves
I'm not a boy. granny. Time is very cruel to your ears too. Seriously, have you ever deal with music or professional musicians, instruments, tools, software or anything musical. you should be deaf is you didt heard this effect in this song. Gilmour may sing how he want - it is doesn matter, he is solo singer. But Art must sing in interval with Paul and he must do it precisely. Anyway - if you are over 70 years old, you cant sing like boy in church choir. These are two matters to use slightly autotune. Just use your brains and ears.
you got so damn wrong my friend, look at my channel, i got planty of songs with autotune, this isnt autotune, its a chorus effect that you use on guitars to make the string more effective, put it on the song and lower the mix pretty much and you got that pure song, this is his voice that makes the "bubbleinthroat" voice, cuz he is older and that happens when you are a singer to the most of em, so go back and learn a little before trying to sound smart and modern :d

Thre sound of solence os getting louder ever day...cause people are full, stupid, ignorant, silly, cowards.
Listen to the group, Los Lémunders, you will love their song "the queen of light" and it is from today
Listen to Iam Tongi, this years winner of American idol, sing this song. It’s immaculate

Paul Simon never gets enough praise for the guitarist he is.
WARMONGER very true
The Martin Guitar company recognized his talent when they issued the signature guitar he‘s playing
This piece is not hard to play. But it is a beautiful composition of Mr Simon. He is a composer and few people are as good composers as him.
Funny you said that I was just thinking the same
@@dheevesh16 that new intro he did is hard enough but the rest of the song yes

IS COPPY OF CONDOR PASA ,SONG OF THE PERU
When they smile at each other, despite years of differences, just before starting to sing ....... music transcends almost everything.
Honestly, I think that smile was when Simon changed chords/positions on the fretboard of the guitar, and was clearly out of tune. But they go for it. What can you do? Lol.
Sounds just fine to me.
Absolutely magic, this sort of music will never be heard again and we should cherish it forever.
those harmonies havnt lost anything
...not a thing.....
the sound of silence
In my opinion they got even better!
fairly positive garfunkels voice is being tampered with in this performance if i remember rightly his voice had declined by this point could be wrong though
1jackct it's wasn't tampered with in anyway
How is it possible that 45 years after this song came out, this duo could still perform it so majestically?
And you can sing along with them . Fantastic.

I was born 2002 too, but I wish I've discovered this song earlier, this is beauty.
+IceAssassin10 same here. Born September 2002 And I grew up listening to pop, but then my dad showed me his music, rock n roll, and I loved it so much. To this day, I love rock n roll and I hate pop.
+Nick Dearman
Well, I respect your opinion, but you shouldn't hate ALL pop. I mean, there are still good pop songs out there, it's just hard to find :/
+vincent stewart exactly man. I think of this as a softer version of rock n roll. I totally agree with you my man.
+IceAssassin10 i don't. I just don't like the NEWER pop songs. I don't think it takes much skill anymore to do what they do.
This song is a double gut punch for me. My dad and I use to sing this together; he passed away in 2006. It's already a depressingly hopeful song, but it brings back memories.
sorry :(
+Talia Carney About 1000 years ago an illiterate Chinese general said something that has stuck with me. "You are never truly dead as long as the living remember you." Think about that whenever you think of your dad.
It makes me think of my big brother died in 1988
+Talia Carney lol
This looks so terrible and sad ... I'm sorry about your dad ...
There is no dislike button for this and never will be.
❤❤❤❤❤❤👏👏👏👏👏
Just one more proof that our generation had the best music and musicians.
illuminati hates music....
There is new good music nowadays, it's just the big corporations which used to promote good music, only promoting the worst fucking music imaginable today.
@@Treyorrrr like i said illuminati hates music
My algebra teacher was born in 1944 every time i enter his class he plays this song or is humming it under his breath... good memories.

Yep
Seems like we got a teacher's pet over here.

OK then
Who's playing this in 2021 like me?
Memories of those far-off day?
Memories tinged with sadness ?
Reminiscences and Memories crowded your mind?
Long lost friend?
or heyday of your life?
or may be we all have our own Sound of silence in our souls...
I want hear your stories.
Just listening because it's a beautiful song!
Me!
This song is still haunting …. ❤ it’s so beautiful , it will be around for many years to come. EVERY-TIME I hear it ,it reminds me of the film with Dustin Hoffman, THE GRADUATE. Brilliant film too…… one of my all time favourites .
Absolutely Haunting
Absolutely wonderful! Simon and Garfunkel are geniuses, and their work live on..
Two of the rare artists that have retained their incredible vocal abilities with age. Phenomenal.
Toute ma jeunesse on traduisait les paroles un bon exercice d'anglais nos tendres années sont Simon et Garfunkel géniale et indémodable chanson et d'autres encore magnifique !!
I mean I know nostalgia is a hell of a drug but Garfunkle is nowhere near where he used to be vocally
neither are the people who were listening when this first came out....get it?@@wiskyr6510
This was 14 years ago
@@wiskyr6510well of course...age does that to ya...sadly.😢
Passes through generations. i was born in 92, lovin this song forever.
+Ren Flexx i was born in 98, love this song too
+Jose Angel Monterroza Born in 99
+Ren Flexx Born in 2001, absolutely love this song
Yes I love this song and was born in '84
+Ren Flexx I think I beat you all. I was born in 1945 and I experienced the full force of the sounds of the 60s. This is great writing, great musicianship, great voice harmony and words that are simple but great literature. The words are nearly Biblical in their simplicity, wisdom and insight. In my youth I got the chance to see and hear the two of them alone on a stage accompanied only by Simon's guitar. Stuff like this does nor come along every day. When it does there is only one word to describe it - PURE MAGIC!
There needs to be a Love Button, for this and those like it. True ARTISTIC excellence.
I really feel bad for today’s young people. There will never be music like this again.
Yes very sad to see how ungodly people have become
Come jesus come
May, 2023 this song is timeless. It touches my soul to the core! Thank you so much, Simon and Garfunkel.
I'm with you.❤
All true in this beauty

May 2023, Acsolute Brilliance and very, very nostalgic!.
It`s 3/12/22 , I`m 68 years old, and I still LOVE this song !!! God bless these guys !
I'm 74 and ditto!
68 here also 3/14/22
This was my brother's favorite group and song. I inherited these albums when my brother passed away in 69. I absolutely love this music and harmony.
It was my father’s favorite song.

Just lost my dad one of his favourite songs when I was younger, mine to priceless 😢❤xx
As soon as I hear the notes of the song, I know this song! Love it!
What is music?
What is soul??
This is.
no back up dancers no fancy production needed simple talent
Riley Summers 👌👌
Though sometimes a flashy performance can enhance a performance like with Pink Floyd or Led Zeppelin
Riley Summers just some awesome guitar picking
Riley Summers
Pure music.
This is true music and lyrics. This went out of the window after the 1980's.
One is reminded how good true music once was after listening to this. SImply amazing
The guitar solo from Paul Simon already sold me before they started singing.
@@foobarmaximus3506 It most definitely wasn't in the slightest
I also think it was slightly out of tune. But what does it matter? It still sounds amazing
Anyone got the tabs for Paul's solo at the beginning?
Would appreciate it much...
Intro it’s called but yea
@@BBQMan87 Well, it was. Especially the low e-string. But of course that can - but shouldn't - happen with a capo on the 7th fret.
It's November 16th 2022, I am still listening it & thinking how the hell these two guys FREEZE TIME !? Just can't believe it ! PURE RAW TALENT.
❤💥❤🔥❤
Just listened to Paul performing the Boxer solo during lockdown nostalgia flooding through my body. At 70 where did the years go peace to all.
@ Crying Clown The fact that I am reading your comment randomly 4 days later is amazing ! Yes, I too am frozen in time as a wee infant 1964 / 1965 era. Sounds of joy....over the AM radio during those days !!
and Nov 16th its my Mom birthday...she pass away last year August 11 xxx

Glorious Garfunkel and Paul! I’ll miss as long as i live.
No one will ever be as good as these two at this song!

This is art

Sam Stanfield what ?
it was a joke. You said "this is art" and I said "and Paul" because their names are Art Garfunkel and Paul Simon.
ohhh ... lol
Sam Stanfield I got it 👌
Listening to these melodies takes me back to a beautiful time, reminiscing about the past and present. It reminds me of many memories of my youth, old love hahaha!! The 80s: the golden era of music
A billion years from now some other civilization on the other side of the universe will hear this and know we were beautiful.
No half naked people going into convulsions on stage here! Nope, just pure talent.
josh simpson I think Art & Paul know that nobody wants to see them shirtless.
josh simpson Truth has been spoken sir!
Daniel Forsell lol
Actually, no pure talent at all. They use autotune throughout the whole song, and at some parts it's extremely noticeable.
I'm expecting a lot of hate at my comment, but as much as I hate it, they really use autotune at this concert.
*****
What are you talking about? Troll elsewhere, noob.
When he started singing I almost cried. Awesome and beautiful!
yet you didn't
*****
;)

I did cry. Beautiful.
There is something special about Art's voice now that he is older, Can't quite put my finger on it but it is hauntingly beautiful :)
Ludvig Roos It's called auto-tune.
No auto tune. Just great artists!
I'm 72 it brings back a lot of memories❤❤❤
Paul Simon is great, and a fantastic guitar player...but Art Garfunkel sounds like an angel.
autotune sounds like an angel, unfortunatly, time is very cruel to voices((
boy this is pure voice. just because newer artists use it doesn't mean everyone does like David gimour from pink floyd, they have retained the ability to hit notes. at different octaves
I'm not a boy. granny. Time is very cruel to your ears too. Seriously, have you ever deal with music or professional musicians, instruments, tools, software or anything musical. you should be deaf is you didt heard this effect in this song. Gilmour may sing how he want - it is doesn matter, he is solo singer. But Art must sing in interval with Paul and he must do it precisely. Anyway - if you are over 70 years old, you cant sing like boy in church choir. These are two matters to use slightly autotune. Just use your brains and ears.
you got so damn wrong my friend, look at my channel, i got planty of songs with autotune, this isnt autotune, its a chorus effect that you use on guitars to make the string more effective, put it on the song and lower the mix pretty much and you got that pure song, this is his voice that makes the "bubbleinthroat" voice, cuz he is older and that happens when you are a singer to the most of em, so go back and learn a little before trying to sound smart and modern :d
it's autotune. 3:34 you can hear it clear as day. it's a beautiful song, but let's recognize the tools involved. this isn't chorus effect.
At the age of 25 in 1990,the song first touched my heart while I was in a city of Northeast of China.
One of the best songs of all time. It will never die.
Está música fes parte da minha vinda

Absolutely 👍🏻 🕊🌍✌️
you are not wrong.
This song is even better than Bridge Over Troubled Water!
One of the true classics of a generation .
