Great version of Paul Simon's song. Should be a million views !!!
Sarah very graciously played this song at a show a few nights ago, at the request of an audience member. She said she hadn't played it for about 5 years, and very quickly placed the capo and started flawlessly picking Paul Simon's intricate guitar part. She became emotional while singing the lyrics and the magic of the moment became very deep and expansive. I was enthralled by the sensitivity and genuine and personal connection with this song. Paul Simon should be proud, and the audience response was exuberant and loud.
Guitar teacher here. I play this song myself -- one of my favorites.
She is the only performer I've heard who has been able to reproduce the musical subtleties with which Simon played and sang this great poetic song -- one that he wrote at around 22 years old or so that foretold his epic talent to unfold over the decades.
Terrific job by Sarah!
Just saw her the other night on Austin City Limits. Never heard of her, wasn't sure what to think when I read the description of her genre. I sat there for the half hour she played just mesmerized. A very rare performer, so young, so talented. The future of music is safe in hands like Sarah.
TheBent139 My thoughts exactly. Too many people think 'today's music sucks' and they are just not hearing those artists that can really deliver such exquisite beauty.
Right, thats how i found her and milk carton kids.I sleep easy
Welcome aboard! I've been a fan for many years (relatively, she is young, 26). Please buy all her CDs. You will not regret buying any one of them. Sarah is an American treasure. Also, check out I'm With Her, a trio of Sarah Jaroz, Aoife O'Donovan and Sara Watkins; you will be very happy!
See her with I'm With Her if you get a chance
So true! One music critic opined: "Jarosz may help save country music."
This song leaves one feeling a deep humility. Not many can reach the root of a Paul Simon song, I think this artist has done so here. Very very fine.
🙌
i literally have never heard her do anything that I haven't been in awe of. So much talent, so much beauty. Each cover so amazingly done.
Paul Simon should thank you for doing the best cover of this wonderful song I have ever heard I am 68 years old now and have heard them all ( you put your hart into Kathie ) well done Sàrah you will go a long way in the music world 🙏🏼☘️☘️💚☘️🙏🏼
Same age. Agree totally:)
She brings this song very beautiful.... but I like the version of Eva Cassidy even more, have you heard this version?
Just shy few years of yours - no kidding she poures her heart into it.👍
This was such a great rendition. Lovely voice. Lovely young lady. But Sean Reynolds have you ever heard this song sung by Eva Cassidy?
Im 74 :-) ! Ditto !!!!
She has great time, tone, pitch and feel - there's not many who have all of those.
This is still one of the best music videos of all time. I listen to it regularly. no matter how many times I listen to it it gives me goosebumps thank you so much Sarah!!!
I love that every word of Paul Simon's lyrics can be distinguished, and such a heartfelt rendition.
I’ve seen many musicians in my 68 years. Sarah is one of the few that doesn’t put on an act. Her presence delivers a much appreciated honesty that our world craves.🎶💞🌻
I have found myself toggling back and forth between Sarah Jarosz and Molly Tuttle lately. These ladies are fantastic.
Sarah has one of the most beautiful voices and I have long admired her covers of Dylan, Paul Simon and others. Her original composition of Hometown is also outstanding.
And as I watch the drops of rain
Weave their weary paths and die
I know that I am like the rain
There but for the grace of you go I
She is fantastic. Stands out in this age of music. She is head and shoulders above all the other current youtube musicians.
Sarah was a regular at the bluegrass jam in her hometown of Wimberley through high school and I played with her and others a lot. What a blessing! Sarah is the rarest of jewels!
Love her voice, her guitar playing, the atmosphere. I should have been there when she played this. Greetings from the Netherlands.
Saw Sarah open for John Prine in Portsmouth, NH a few weeks ago and was blown away!
87celticsfan that must have been amazing, I have loved John Prine since the beginning
I was there! It was an amazing show
Written in 1965 by Paul Simon and performed by Simon & Garfunkel, song "Kathy´s Song" ***** And for sure i love this version in the voice and attitude of Sarah Jarosz. Worth.
My father used to sing me this, absolutely perfect Sarah Jarosz followed you and your music a long time!!
One of the most beautiful songs written by Paul Simon. Thanks for such an amazing version.
A wonderful singer who deserves to be better known.
This came across my feed today.....what a great voice and amazing song....love Aofie
Sarah's jurney since the day she performed Kathy's song has been a learning as well as a teaching experience. Sarah's style never wavers from the truth within her.Sarahs a master of the strings while her personality and voice accompany her with strength beauty. Solo or performing concerts with friends of the highest musical ability is a experience like no other.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🎸
you sound like you came from the 1960s and make beautiful music too. I love you.
One of the best Paul Simon covers...ever...
I agree, absolutely beautiful. Nice to see her not change up the melody and at the same time not try to do it lik S&G
Yup
Ever.
The best. In a class by itself. :-)
Except for Eva Cassidy
Fantastic cover. The best Paul Simon's love song.
I've listened to this cover si many times AND i never get tired.Beautiful!
Sarah Jarosz is a Polish-American singer, songwriter, instrumentalist and graduate of New England’s Conservatory of Music. Hails from Austin, Texas and now based in New York. I think her cover of Kathy’s Song (one of my all-time Simon and Garfunkel favourites) is absolutely fabulous.
Wow !!! Wonderful ! What are fabulous performance !👍
This is great; right up there with the Eva Cassidy version.
I'm just loving watching her career soar. I discovered her about 3 years ago. I've been a huge fan ever since. She evokes emotions and moves the soul with her writing.
I wish someday she would sing this only to me outstanding
I used to have to avoid listening too carefully to Paul Simon's recording of this song, unless I wanted a good cry. Sarah definitely gets it--Beautiful.
Lovely
Kathy was a friend of Paul Simon and Art ,she lives in Wales now. Wonderful voice ...xx
Stunningly Beautiful cover. I listen to her on loop
Pure Talent shines like a beacon and you Girl have just blinded me.xx
World class, generational talent. Period. Sarah is an outstanding composer, a poetic lyricist and a fine musician. These combined talents at her level don't happen often. I'm hooked. She's a precious addition to the music world.
So Beautiful !! Sarah lovely Sarah you sing so sweet. this song reminds me of a lovely lady I once knew, her name was Jessica. I will never foreget her. Hope to see her again 1 day. Will always Love Her ! :- ( !
She is incredible!
Wonderful cover Bravo
Ethereal voice combined with the song is perfect.
Just felt like hearing the original song and ran across your cover. Thanks for making my day...
Wow such a beautiful rendition of an old favourite
Beautiful version, wow!
Every day, every night, I sing with you in your videos.
This is my life now.
Humbly grateful Sarah,
Forest 🎶🌻
This is a true Star. Love and miss this music. Acoustic with her voice and talent is amazing ..
When I heard her sing this on ACL I fell instantly in love with her and her musical genius one of the most amazing talents of our folk/americana/bluegrass culture...
This is the best cover of this song and umm.. sorry Paul, the best performance, IMO.
Take a bow,Sarah. A masterpiece.
One of my favorite songs I have heard her sing. Great.
Great!
Wonderful rendition of a great song this young lady has real talent !
This is the nicest cover of one of Paul Simon's greatest songs I've ever heard.
Love this soo much, she looks and sounds like a folk goddess
She is a folk goddess! Just saw her in concert at a very small venue in Seattle, absolutely awesome. Can’t wait to see her again.
One person said it earlier, “ Sarah, you’re just so good” it’s so true!
You have a beautifully rich voice. Great cover. Thanks for sharing.
she nailed it
Never realized how beautiful this song is
She has a beautiful voice. Love this rendition of a classic song.
Her voice is so soothing..could listen to her a lot. Happy I ran into this.
Voice like an angel ....
Lovely!
Beautiful
Outstanding! I really love this song and this performance really does it justice.
noticing as I replay this how she "nails it", those first chords...so amazing and beautiful, favorite song
Well she sold out a concert at the Union Chapel in London last night. It was a great performance and she performed this song too.
Such a strong and beautiful vocal. Memorandum to self: Discover more about this artist, of whom I have just now heard for the first time!
very beautiful... such talent.. Exceptional Sarah
I've never heard of Sarah Jarosz before today. I looked up guitar lessons to learn Kathy's Song and this video popped up as an option. Her performance of a beautiful version of a beautiful song is damn near perfect. I am in awe.
I just love Ms. Sarah. Always loved this song.
We love you Satah
This and Shawn Colvin's version--both are just stunningly good!
What a beautiful voice, she lifted this song into the modern era
wonderful singer and a great song A PLEASURE TO BEHOLD ,WHAT TALENT
Small gal, huge guitar, voice of an angel. Wow!
so beautiful
So good,, and yet she has grown her art so much since than.
How is someone like this even possible
beautiful
Magical.
Fantastic.
Her earrings dance, all on their own, interpreting musical moments, with character and sway.
for years, a huge inspiration thank you.
outstanding.
Someone who truly recognizes PS genius. Thank You so much.
I never thought someone could imo do this song better than P.S. she owns it it’s her song too.
This is gorgeous - reminds me of a soft field with rain quietly falling, some where in the English countryside.
Maybe the best version of Paul Simon's best song, which is really saying something when you consider the other top versions on TH-cam are by the man himself plus Art Garfunkel and Eva Cassidy, two of the best pure singers in recent memory.
Something about this version, though... just so effortlessly gorgeous.
Paul Thomas,
She is very good but listen to Art sing it live, the yearning purity and poignancy are unique....the best.
Lovely but nothing can touch the 1969 live recording by Paul himself.
Thank you for this beautiful rendition of a beautiful song. There's little I can add to what others have said in your praise, but I'd like to say that you've captured the essence of the song. I know, because I got the same goosebumps that I do whenever I hear the original.
Abeautiful song
It's a massive yes from me. ❤️
This is so, so beautiful. Thank you for sharing and keep sharing your amazing talent. Love from Ireland.
Such amazing talent and such a beautiful creature should be idolized among the best of them, keep up the good work Sarah I'll look out for you whenever I'm here.
lovely song, lovely playing, lovely girl.
A fine singer.
Gorgeous.
Wow. That was just breathtaking, spellbinding. What a beautiful sound. Like the gates of heaven were left open and we could hear angels sing. Thank you!
Love that Sarah covering a Simon and Garfunkel song! Beautiful and poetry across the generations!!
Really good 😊
