Bet you wasn't laughing when you heard Art Garfunkel sing. Such an angelic voice.

Anyone who doesn’t get emotional during this song has never been through truly hard times and needed a real friend.

One of the most beautiful songs of all time, so powerful, a true masterpiece

If Art Garfunkel never sang another song, he'd be remembered for this one forever.

Why does no one ever mention the incredible Pianist on this? His name is Larry Knechtel. He is incredible. Its Art Garfunkle's angelic voice you hear. Yeah,the one who's name you were laughing at.

".... when you're down and out, when you're on the street When evening Falls so hard, I will comfort you...." what's great lyrics Paul Simon writes

Another beautiful song by them sung in perfect harmony...The Sound of Silence.

Art Garfunkel with the voice of an angel. Paul Simon genius composer. This song was HUGE when it came out. They had a lot of great songs. My suggestions are The Boxer, Hazy Shade of Winter and For Emily, Whenever I May Find Her.

#1 song in the USA in 1970, longest #1 song and Grammy winner for song of the year in 1970.

Paul Simon is one of the all time greatest songwriters, and Art Garfunkel has the voice of an angel. Gorgeous.

I said it when I first heard "Bridge over troubled water"and I still say it till this day ,One of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. Never gets old and will never die.A forever song.

One of the most beautiful and inspirational songs ever.

Simon& Garfunkel were the best selling folk rock duo of the 60s, with hits like this The Boxer, Mrs Robinson, The Sound of Silence, Anerica Scarborough Fair and many many others. Paul Simon wrote all the songs abd has had an epic solo career after he and Artie broke up.

Art Garfunkel has the voice of an angel. He sounds just as good live.

My mom used to sing this song to me when i was a little boy,back in the 60s

I was at one of their Bridge over Trouble Water concerts, if you love his voice recorded… live was spectacular!!! So amazing, I was front row center.

Art Garfunkel is the taller angelic soloist. Paul Simon is a musical and lyrical genius. He is on the level of Bob Dylan

You laugh at Garfunkel until the first time you hear him sing.

This is an absolute masterpiece! From back at the dawn of rock. I suppose it's a ballad with gospel influences, but that's like saying Handel's Messiah is "church music."

i'm impressed you pronounced Art's name right even know it made you laugh, then when he started singing, you was pushing the headphones against your ears to get that full eargasm of his angelic vocals...priceless, thanks. They have some great music.

it transcends being a song and enters the realm of prayer ..its that good

One of my favorite songs for 50 years.

WOW! There is a symphony playing in your ears. You Got It!

Fun to watch someone connect and appreciate great music! Wonderful job!!

When Art Garfunkel opens his mouth to sing, I stop what I'm doing. Such a soothing, sweet sound - the voice of an angel 😇

My feels got fluffy, and a wee bit tear stained.

Biz, one of the best duos ever!!! Paul Simon songwriting magic. Art's vocals like melted chocolate. We sing this in choir.

Thanks for your honest emotions so good to see pulls on your heartstrings Garfunkel is the tall one

Paul Simon is a musical genius, and Art Garfunkel had the voice of an angel, together they were magic. Paul went on to have a stellar solo career, I would rank his lyric writing ability as second to only Bob Dylan.

This was intended to be a Gospel song with piano only. The producer said it was too short. Simon added the "sail on silver girl" verse to extend it along with orchestration.

I really needed this tonight.. Thank you 🙏

Try the live version from The Concert In Central Park and watch how effortlessly Art sings this epic

My suggestions: The Sound Of Silence, Scarborough Fair, and The Boxer first. Definitely some of their finest work. Their voices together are like listening to angels singing. Enjoy!

Paul Simon might be the greatest lyricist ever. He's incredibly deep as well as prolific. It's worth going down this rabbit hole. Maybe try the Boxer next. Eventually listen to the entire Graceland album. Really like your reactions btw.

“ Music has got the power to take you anywhere.” I love that you said that man it’s so true

I was a teenager through the late 70's, when so much of their great music came out. This one is a classic, for sure. Another one that is SO powerful, that I think you'd definitely enjoy, is 'The Boxer.' GREAT reaction! I love, so much, how you genuinely appreciate music and the lyrics. Your reactions are AWESOME!

Yes it really builds up so powerfully! I think you will also like The Boxer by them - and about a hundred other songs too.

We all need to listen to this. Thank you sir!!!

Bridge Over Troubled Water 1970 Grammy winners: Record, Song, Album, and Vocal Performance of the Year

Goosebumps every time 💪

One of the all time great songs and great performances. What was so funny about his name? Everyone's name is personal to them coming down from their family wherever they come from.

Paul Simon knew that he was going to go solo very soon. He wrote this song for Artie to sing solo as a farewell gift to his soon to be ex-partner.

Simon & Garfunkel are no laughing matter. True talent and genius.

This was the music i grew up with. It was and still is the best ever. You young guys are living in the wrong time. Simon and Garfunkel are THEE number one duet ever...period. This is my favorite songs by them. Keep listening and see what we had the privilege of living with. I like your spirit.

This song will never get old.

“The Boxer “ This should be the next song of theirs you listening to. Simon and Garfunkel are amazing I would also recommend finding their concert in Central Park.

This song is as relevant today as it was in the early seventies. Maybe even more so.

When I was in junior high school we sang this in choir. I love this song and all the rest of there music.☮️💖

The sound of silence. A masterpiece. Also may I suggest possible reactions ti James Taylor. Great story teller

Those lyrics...that voice of Art Garfunkel...perfection. Greatest song I know to get through hard times

Stunning song. This song showcased Art Garfunkel’s voice beautifully, and the Brinks trucks have been backing up to their homes ever since. I’m sure everyone will suggest all the best songs and there are plenty. Watch any of them from their legendary “Concert from Central Park.” They’re amazing live and stay pretty true to the original studio, plus it’s great to watch them perform live. One of my faves is “Scarborough Faire” (Parsley Sage Rosemary and Thyme.)

I got to see them in a Tent while my family was seeing America. My Mother went too, because if the majority wanted to do something we all did it. My Mother thought that it was hard rock!

So many wonderful parts to this song. The lyrics, Art's performance, and that piano. That piano is flawless.

So many great songs from these two. "America", "Homeward Bound", "Sound of Silence", "The Boxer" etc. My personal favourite "Kathy's Song" which Art Garfunkel said was Paul Simon's best love song.

Garfunkel did the all the vocals.

Their “My Little Town “ and “The Dangling Conversation “ will blow you away....

60’s poetry that matters for a lifetime.

Voice of an angel

"The Boxer" is an excellent song too

It’s still a beautiful song. And I’m old now. I was a hippie who loved all music and all races. Hell, I even enjoy rap now! Never too old to appreciate different genres of music. It’s all about the message, man! ♥️

This was a very popular funeral song back when I was a kid - early 70's.

Classic Simon and Garfunkel. Powerful, great harmonies. Just beautiful. Thx for playing

A must watch, Sounds of Silence live in Central Park, 1981

Art Garfunkel has such a pure voice❤

Garfunkel sang this song in some versions Simon sings harmony sound of silence should be next

I’m sure you felt my embrace! Great music is not what you hear, it’s what you recognize in your soul. Thank you for sharing.

The last time through the chorus is the absolute pinnacle of Art Garfunkel’s career.

Go, right now and listen to the live version of this song at MSG. I think it was 2009 or 2010. Crazy good!!!!

Hey bro, I like how genuine you are, let your emotion show. This is really such a beautiful song and speaks of true friendship.

The end of the song is so strong and beautiful ❣️

As a solo artist, Paul Simon has an abundance of great material. I kindly suggest "Me And Julio Down By The Schoolyard", "Kodachrome" & one with a Caribbean Goombay and Salsa flavor to it, "Late In The Evening" 😊✌

I want this played at my funeral for my granddaughters to let them know I will be there for them even when times are hard

One of the all-time GREAT GREAT songs!!

Two Jewish kids from NYC who met in high school and formed one of the greatest duos of all time! They had problems. Art was always pissing Paul off by being late, but they got through that. Paul wrote all the songs. He wrote THIS song! It upset him that Art got all the kudos! The name they used on their first record was "Tom and Jerry"!

Loved your sincere reaction

The end of this song the sound the voice just blows me away the power orrrr

You are perfect, they are perfect. My only suggestion is to watch the unveiling of this song Live at Central Park and see the passion and skill you just heard.

What is touching your soul in this song comes from your heritage. This is a gospel song written by Paul Simon who drew his inspiration for the song after listening to the Swan Silvertones, a southern gospel group. Mr. Simon considers this his greatest song. It is.

Simon & Garfunkel were a huge phenomenon in the 1960's and had many big hits at the same time that the British Invasion was happening. Their song called Scarborough Fair is a masterpiece, please select the long album version. After this song in 1970, Bridge Over Troubled Water, they soon went for solo careers. Paul Simon had great success and several #1 hits. Art Garfunkel had only one successful hit, a cover called I Only Have Eyes For You. Great version of the song. In the mid 70's, the duo got together for one more album together and had a hit with the only single from the album, My Little Town.

'The Boxer' should be your next listen for Simon and Garfunkle.

Great reaction. Thank you.

"Sail on, silver girl Sail on by.. Your time has come to shine All your dreams are on their way.. See how they shine Oh if you need a friend I'm sailing right behind" THANK YOU AGAIN

NUMBER ONE HIT SONG IN 1970... BOTH HAVE GREAT VOICES.

Love the reaction. One of my favorite songs.

Paul Simon wrote this song for Art Garfunkel to sing, but he was hesistant to do it...that is all I know about it. My Dad used to listen to this song all the time and to this day, since he passed, this song really hits in a whole new way for me.

Your reaction was the and as mine the first time I heard this back in high school!!!

Great song. Great reaction.

Tall blond one ( Art Garfunkel) is singing here. Paul wrote it. and harmonized on it. An enduring classic. I feel like Jesus is singing these words of comfort.

The tall one sings the bulk of it.

This track and the album of the same name pretty much swept the Grammies in 1971 with Song of the Year and Album of the Year. Paul Simon’s solo album Graceland won the Grammy for Album of the Year in 1987. He recorded some of the tracks in Africa, collaborating with African & American musicians. The entire album is great; I think you would enjoy Under African Skies, one of my favorite tracks. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l5meecdzzpzLgXk.html Great reaction! Thanks.

Paul Simon wrote this as a solo for Art Garfunkel,he joins him about 3/4 of the way than backs off again to let Art go for the big finish...glad you appreciate the vocals and the dual,nice reaction.

BizMatik, don't limit yourself to Simon & Garfunkel's great songs. Paul Simon is arguably America's finest songwriter -- along with Dylan -- so you should check out his brilliant solo efforts.

Love the live performance from Central Park concert.

Ya gotta do the same song live in Central Park from 1981, you won’t be the same

Released Jan 1970, this song ended the 1960's. The shorter guy, Paul Simon is songwriter, Art Garfunkel 90% of the vocals. Whole album incredible, recommend "The Boxer". This is as good as it gets. Instant classic.

The whole album is a folk rock classic!

Damn…. The imagery, gets a fella choked up

This was the #2 song of the decade of the 1970's on the Billboard Charts.

Won the Grammy for song of the year in 1971

Just FYI the surname Garfunkel is of Jewish origins, particularly German Jewish. Art had a long solo career after the duo broke up. Though Paul Simon had more commercial success, Art's albums were full of his beautiful soaring vocals! This is one of my top 20 lifetime favorite songs. The message and the delivery make my 💜 soar while bringing me to tears every time I hear it. I sang a solo of this song in 1970 in a high school talent competition. I didn't win the competition but I was very proud of my efforts and I didn't care because I was singing that song
