My mom married name is Mrs. Robinson and this song touched my heart. She is with God now and this song let me know she’s my angel and Jesus loves her more than she know.
@@ElSantoLuchador This song was written independently of that Mrs. Robinson, and was originally going to be called Mrs. Roosevelt, or it was at least considered.
Had a teacher in primary school called Mrs Robinson. The whole school (only about 100 kids) got together and sung this to her on her 50th birthday. I'll never forget that day.
i am old. I am at the end of my life now..Wow, what a ride. This song just reminds me of how much time has passed and how quickly it goes. If you are young, Im not preaching and your life is yours to live as you choose, but trust me--The days are long but the years are short.

My brother was profoundly and deaf but still enjoyed Mrs. Robinson he would would whistle 😙 along with it .and I sware he was singing too. He so loved it . On Memory of James Peter Moran 1-30-2000.
my late husband Jim played this to me as a proposal song. I became Mr's Robinson and had nearly 28 wonderful years of marriage and 31.5 years together before he passed away 💔 27-07-2019 from Cancer. I'm still married to him and always will be love you always ❤ Jimbo
I loved this song growing up in my life. I had a neighbour called Mrs Robinson. She had got over such Hardship in her life. Death of husband, being burgled, brought all her four kids up. And was chatty and alive. But, as it happens to all of us she died but at 94. I used to bake buns for her and take her a newspaper and buns or chocolate most weeks. Now the house is empty and on the market. Each time I go shopping I see the rack with newspapers in, see the treats I would have bought her so I cant put her out of my mind. I am in awe of her strength and her long life. Rest in peace you lovely old Lady. X x
It is so refreshing to hear someone praise their parents. In this culture, it seems like everyone just finds fault. Our parents weren't perfect but they were awesome. ❤️
My entire musical taste just got stuck at that time, when we were driving in our car for 12 hours to vacation in italy or greece etc. and we heard one CD after the next. Great times. Thank your parents once in while, people!

Ya can't think of this song without thinking of The Graduate. Ya can't think of "cougar women" without that movie and this song crossing your mind, if you're from a certain generation!
I just got married last month. This morning, a friend said said, "Hey Mrs. Robinson! ... Wait, isn't that a song?" Well, here I am, Mrs. Robinson in the flesh!♡
En 1974 yo tenía 15 años y un amigo, cuyo padre era el gerente de una casa disquera, me regaló un acetato con 14 canciones de este sensacional dúo. Me acompañó esta música en toda mi adolescencia. Hoy tengo una nieta y vuelvo a vibrar cada vez que los escucho.
In 1974 I was 15 years old and a friend, whose father was the manager of a record company, gave me an acetate with 14 songs by this sensational duo. He accompanied me this music throughout my adolescence. Today I have a granddaughter and I vibrate again every time I hear them. (i used google translate for this so if there are any mistakes my bad)
“Laugh about it , shout about it , when you’ve got to choose. Every way you look at this you lose.” My older brother used to say this line all the time , for some reason. He passed away years ago. Whenever I hear this song I think about him.
This song will remain a classic forever, Simon and Garfunkel are simply incredible! The Joe DiMaggio line hits hard though , I wasn’t alive to see him play but he represented what the US was all about in a time of uncertainty and hopelessness when heroes where in short supply…
Why he was a hope? Did he used to say important political things on a time when everyone was semi-blind? I just know he was a very famous baseball player
I’m 45 and let’s be honest…when I was born the best and biggest inflow of music was happening. So it took me years to pay this song much attention. It’s a banger and my fav of Simon and Garfunkel
Zufällig "entdeckte"ich das wunderschöne Lied "Mrs. Robinson", gesungen von Simon and Garfunkel. Ich kenne dieses Lied bereits seit meiner Jugendzeit in den 60er- Jahren. Ich besitze auch eine CD mit diesem Lied von Simon and Garfunkel.
My newborn was often tired & collicky. I'd play this song and the first guitar strums would grab her attention - she'd lull into a happy slumber. Every time. Magic.
@@straightbusta2609 The Graduate is a great film and if you liked the soundtrack then you'll probably enjoy the following songs by Simon & Garfunkel: Bridge Over Troubled Water America April Come She Will The Boxer
God Bless You, Ms. Robinson; Here’s to You. You were my 6th grade Math teacher and you touched my heart deeply. Every time I hear this song, I am reminded of a time when I was a very sensitive and stressed out young girl. I recall a time when I was kept after class and you somehow had learned of my love for animals. You gave me 2 ASPCA T-Shirts and a book about all sorts of animals, which I am sitting here with right now. It’s been nearly 10 years, but upon hearing that you’d passed away, I couldn’t stop myself from digging the book out from my book shelf. I will always cherish it and you, Ms. Robinson. RIP Jane Robinson ❤🕊️
Sooo underrated. Bless your dad, not much of a Christian but I felt like sayin' it My mom's 44 and she taught me good music like this, I love these parents
I think he is saying it is special not because it was part of some major life moment, but rather because it was a constant part of a time in his life. Not an exciting time, but rather just there and part of it. I feel that way about a lot of 80s songs that played non-stop on the radio when I was a kid, and when hearing them, make me reminisce about that time period generically. Like the soundtrack to a film set in the 80s.
My late Father had an 8 track of "Bridge over Troubled Water" and he played it constantly on his 8 track player back in the early 70's. I Never stopped liking them or their music to this day, and have all their albums on CD. I have even made a "Best of" CD for my own pleasure. God Bless you Both Paul and Art.
I'm back in the 70s' ❤❤ a boy who came across this WONDERFUL DUO... Impressions Left Forever... 2024...❤❤❤❤❤ IF only one could turn back the clock... I Guess We would All Be There... 🎸💥💥🎷💥💥
I just refurbished a pair of Koss Electrostatic Stereophones that were made the year this came out, and listening to this on them is a different experience.
This song will always remind me of long road trips to the lake in the summer. My parents are huge Simon and Garfunkel fans…my sister and I both love their music too now 😊
I've loved this song since I saw "The Graduate"! I was just a kid, but it's stuck in my head all these years. I started looking back through the music of the 60s and 70s for songs that would take me back to a time where all seemed safe and good! Simon and Garfunkle always do this for me! I have many of their albums..YES... ALBUMS, not CD's!
Hey, i’m 12. I don’t play Roblox, i’m not edgy and I don’t like to rap. I listen to the Beatles, Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Billy Joel, Culture Club, Madonna... the list goes on and on. It’s not right to stereotype all 12 years because we are not all like that. Anyone can listen to this, like Matthew Griffin said before.
“Mrs. Robinson,” was originally titled, “Mrs. Roosevelt.” The song and had absolutely nothing to do with the plot of The Graduate. When director Mike Nichols said he needed another song for his movie, Paul Simon told him that they were too busy touring and that he only had “a song about times past, about Mrs. Roosevelt and Joe DiMaggio and stuff,” but it wasn’t finished yet. It was originally a tribute to Eleanor Roosevelt and the passing of an era; a more innocent era to be exact. When Nichols realized "Mrs. Roosevelt" had the same number of syllables as “Mrs. Robinson”, he asked Simon to change the title and the song “Mrs. Robinson” was born. Joe DiMaggio Wasn't Wild About His Inclusion In The Lyrics The song asks "Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio?" then immediately answers itself "Joltin' Joe has left and gone away." The former New York Yankee and three-time MVP was puzzled by the lines, and he told Simon just that when they happened to meet. Paul Simon wrote of the encounter and conversation in a New York Times article marking DiMaggio's passing in 1999: "What I don't understand," [DiMaggio] said, "is why you ask where I've gone. I just did a Mr. Coffee commercial, I'm a spokesman for the Bowery Savings Bank and I haven't gone anywhere." I said that I didn't mean the lines literally, that I thought of him as an American hero and that genuine heroes were in short supply. He accepted the explanation and thanked me. We shook hands and said good night. Simon admitted in the editorial that he didn't quite nail the explanation to DiMaggio, and went on at more length: In the 50's and 60's, it was fashionable to refer to baseball as a metaphor for America, and DiMaggio represented the values of that America: excellence and fulfillment of duty (he often played in pain), combined with a grace that implied a purity of spirit, an off-the-field dignity and a jealously guarded private life. ... He was the antithesis of the iconoclastic, mind-expanding, authority-defying 60's, which is why I think he suspected a hidden meaning in my lyrics. The fact that the lines were sincere and that they've been embraced over the years as a yearning for heroes and heroism speaks to the subconscious desires of the culture. We need heroes, and we search for candidates to be anointed. groovyhistory.com/original-name-simon-and-garfunkel-song
Yes, it was originally called Mrs Roosevelt and I love the fact that many people think it flatters and honors her, because that means they succeeded in getting their obvious criticism of her out without offending anyone (sadly it also means that not many people actually got what it's really about - let's just say it has to do with certain rumors about her and I actually made a cover of it called Mrs. Clinton - fits great)
This is interesting. Without this context, I always interpreted it as a song about a woman going through AA/rehab for alcoholism. This is good to know!
¡Que dúo!!!lo escuché desde niña y siempre es de mi agrado escucharlos, ahora con 62 años creo los disfruto aún más..gracias a Dios por la oportunidad de estar junto con ellos en este mundo 🌎💕..gracias por compartir 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Mais brasileiros além de mim por aqui?! Essa música me faz sentir que estou na estrada dentro de um fusca com uma mala de viagem no porta malas e o companheiro ao lado dirigindo com óculos escuros e cabelos ao vento enquanto esse som toca no rádio retrô. Sensações boas de uma juventude que não queria que passasse!
Meu tio estava para pintar seu amado Fusca. O funileiro perguntou a cor, ele respondeu "verde sunga de negão". E não é que tinha lá uma cor com esse nome?

I’m 45 and let’s be honest…when I was born the best and biggest inflow of music was happening. So it took me years to pay this song much attention. It’s a banger and my fav of Simon and Garfunkel
Love your comment and I reckon you are British or maybe Australian. Nailed it my friend, a "banger " indeed 👌
Mais um sucesso dessa maravilhosa dupla Samuel Garfunkel e Paul Simon
I was so immersed in this song that I was surprised when it came to an end... First time hearing it and I'm so glad TH-cam brought me here!!
Zufällig "entdeckte"ich das wunderschöne Lied "Mrs. Robinson", gesungen von Simon and Garfunkel. Ich kenne dieses Lied bereits seit meiner Jugendzeit in den 60er- Jahren. Ich besitze auch eine CD mit diesem Lied von Simon and Garfunkel.
Die zwei (Simon und Garfunkel) sind immerhin Grossartig. Fred
JESUS loves you more then you will know! powerfull
Amen 🙏
its amazing the lords love for us! forgive my gramer, im mexican
My newborn was often tired & collicky. I'd play this song and the first guitar strums would grab her attention - she'd lull into a happy slumber. Every time. Magic.
I wish you well! Rock on!
Awww. Thank you for sharing
Aprendi a gostar com meu irmão mais velho ouvindo. Hj sou apaixonada com essas músicas. Linda canção memorável.

Bridge Over Troubled Water
America
April Come She Will

What a greeting scene with Cliff and young hippie girl
When I saw Cliff in the car when this song came on I was like: OH NO CLIFF NO NO NO SHE IS WAY TOO YOUNG NOO!
Yeah
Exactly the opposite situation to what happened to Dustin Hoffman in The Graduate.
what movie is this?

God Bless You, Ms. Robinson; Here’s to You. You were my 6th grade Math teacher and you touched my heart deeply. Every time I hear this song, I am reminded of a time when I was a very sensitive and stressed out young girl. I recall a time when I was kept after class and you somehow had learned of my love for animals. You gave me 2 ASPCA T-Shirts and a book about all sorts of animals, which I am sitting here with right now. It’s been nearly 10 years, but upon hearing that you’d passed away, I couldn’t stop myself from digging the book out from my book shelf. I will always cherish it and you, Ms. Robinson. RIP Jane Robinson ❤🕊️
Never gets old❤️
I’ve listened to this five fucking times today. Please help me

I'm 25 and this is one of my faves
Makes me feel alive and happy more than anything else in the world
It's True Jesus Loves us more than we will ever know. As Does yours and my God the Father in Heaven.
and all that Christ asks is that you simply place your trust in His death/burial/resurrection
Indeed. But the song is being sarcastic.
@@uruloki2758 i don't pick up any feeling of sarcasm in their voices at all.
My father is turning 71, I'm playing this for my dad to remember his time.
look around all you see is sympathetic eyes....hey, hey hey
My Dad played this song loads too xx
This song makes me think of my father. His name was Joe and his favorite baseball player was Joe DiMaggio
Long life and happiness to your dad! 👏👏👏🎆⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Sooo underrated. Bless your dad, not much of a Christian but I felt like sayin' it
My mom's 44 and she taught me good music like this, I love these parents
It's one of many of songs that go straight to my heart and throughout the rest of my body. Genius.
Jesus does love you more than you will know!
he's creepy like that
@@johnw9722 Jesus loves you too. Remember to call on his name at the end, all will be forgiven.
Good advice. He is KING of the universe
Paul Simon was born Jewish but now says he is "not religious". He has never been a believer in Jesus. The references to religion are artistic license.
🙏 Amen
I love the way Paul rakes the strings.
The beat of that song is just perfect!
I love this song!
Me too Loren!
Lorena Lopes Santana Why are we all yelling!?

Hello from Russia.
In the USSR, they released records with your songs, I bow low to you
You should bow to no one. 🇺🇸
Very interesting. The popularity of this in the USSR 🙂
@noKatyanoparty I think they mean they don't respect Russians or something, they already knew what it meant
❤🤘
@noKatyanoparty they said you should bow to no one because they don't respect Russia it's not hard to understand
Simon and Garfunkel, my mom used to play them every morning during the car journey to school. This song is a trip of utterly mundane memories.
Utterly mundane? Is that bad or good?
yeah like he said is that bad or good?
I think he is saying it is special not because it was part of some major life moment, but rather because it was a constant part of a time in his life. Not an exciting time, but rather just there and part of it.
I feel that way about a lot of 80s songs that played non-stop on the radio when I was a kid, and when hearing them, make me reminisce about that time period generically. Like the soundtrack to a film set in the 80s.
My late Father had an 8 track of "Bridge over Troubled Water" and he played it
constantly on his 8 track player back in the early 70's. I Never stopped liking
them or their music to this day, and have all their albums on CD. I have even
made a "Best of" CD for my own pleasure. God Bless you Both Paul and Art.
Hoy tengo 61 años.creci con ellos.Mi primer LP fue puente sobre aguas turbulentas.Magnifico
Nunca vou enjoar destas músicas, a gente consegue viajar no tempo e reviver tudo, feliz de quem nasceu numa época maravilhosa, magnífico. Valeu.
Musica tranquila de uma época tranquila ❤ Minha irmã mais velha tinha num vinil e ficávamos escutando.
Love this song, it has such a Beatles vibe! Love all the influences! 💜💜💜
I'm back in the 70s' ❤❤

If you're still here, God bless you please, mr/s listener.
I just refurbished a pair of Koss Electrostatic Stereophones that were made the year this came out, and listening to this on them is a different experience.
Thank u! May god bless you too!
God bless you too 🙏❤
God bless you too :)
Jesus loves you more than you could ever know!
Listened to this on my grandpas record player we had at our house. We would play the record over and over. Two great artists.
@Robin Anderson I’m doing well Robert. How are you?
This song will always remind me of long road trips to the lake in the summer. My parents are huge Simon and Garfunkel fans…my sister and I both love their music too now 😊
Hello 👋
I love this song. It will never grow old. These young men do a great job with it.
ME TOO SO MUCH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Greatest musical duo ever (I don't care if I'm the only one that thinks so, THEY were)
You are not alone :)
proclaimers were pretty good too
Timone and Pumba.
Brian Long It's close buddy, but Simon and Garfunkel are pretty good at standing out.
Hall 'n Oates? :P
(I kid, I kid)
Never out of style , that's real music!
They don’t make songs like this anymore absolutely magnificent
What a beautiful song!😊It's part of the history of music🎶🎵😍👏
It so underappreciated.!!!
@S00N2B3 Once Upon a Time in Hollywood

thanks to my dad for playing quality music when I was young.
I think my father had a lot of fun back in the days
+Mario Cassina And so did I!
Back in the days it's now +Mario Cassina
Let don't write music like this anymore! The Graduate! What a time in life. Perfection of Cinema and Music!
I've loved this song since I saw "The Graduate"! I was just a kid, but it's stuck in my head all these years. I started looking back through the music of the 60s and 70s for songs that would take me back to a time where all seemed safe and good! Simon and Garfunkle always do this for me! I have many of their albums..YES... ALBUMS, not CD's!
Bob Johnston. The percussion on S&G tracks - always so imaginative.
Jesus, I don't care what age group anyone is... This is such an amazing song that ALL can enjoy
"...Amen"
Matthew Griffin don't use the Lord's name lik
e that
Not edgy 12 year olds who think Lil Pump and Kanye in Roblox costumes is real music
to be fair that was kinda funny the first time I saw it.
Hey, i’m 12. I don’t play Roblox, i’m not edgy and I don’t like to rap. I listen to the Beatles, Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Billy Joel, Culture Club, Madonna... the list goes on and on. It’s not right to stereotype all 12 years because we are not all like that. Anyone can listen to this, like Matthew Griffin said before.
This is music, this is melody this is what takes you to heaven - very gently.
AH no way wrong buddy and what does very gentle mean?! your sick!
The production quality of this piece has never been surpassed. I doubt if it ever will.
Like a rolling stone by Bob Dylan?
Bold statement
This song remids me of an 1890's Wild West rider competing in a race. I think he also had a thing for a certain type of cactus
I must admit that I was an unlucky chap who in his entire life didn't listen to this masterpiece. Now finally
But look at you now fella'
you should watch the film The Graduate that this song was made for. Its a classic.
@@robertrowbotham1 Sure...
@@robertrowbotham1 Technically they had written this song under a different name for their own album, but they renamed it to go with the graduate.
One of ,my father favorite song 💙hey Danilo ilustre Yung favorite song mo oh ginigitara mo pa to dati. Sipra lang.🎵🎶
“Mrs. Robinson,” was originally titled, “Mrs. Roosevelt.” The song and had absolutely nothing to do with the plot of The Graduate. When director Mike Nichols said he needed another song for his movie, Paul Simon told him that they were too busy touring and that he only had “a song about times past, about Mrs. Roosevelt and Joe DiMaggio and stuff,” but it wasn’t finished yet. It was originally a tribute to Eleanor Roosevelt and the passing of an era; a more innocent era to be exact.
When Nichols realized "Mrs. Roosevelt" had the same number of syllables as “Mrs. Robinson”, he asked Simon to change the title and the song “Mrs. Robinson” was born.
Joe DiMaggio Wasn't Wild About His Inclusion In The Lyrics
The song asks "Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio?" then immediately answers itself "Joltin' Joe has left and gone away." The former New York Yankee and three-time MVP was puzzled by the lines, and he told Simon just that when they happened to meet. Paul Simon wrote of the encounter and conversation in a New York Times article marking DiMaggio's passing in 1999:
"What I don't understand," [DiMaggio] said, "is why you ask where I've gone. I just did a Mr. Coffee commercial, I'm a spokesman for the Bowery Savings Bank and I haven't gone anywhere."
I said that I didn't mean the lines literally, that I thought of him as an American hero and that genuine heroes were in short supply. He accepted the explanation and thanked me. We shook hands and said good night.
Simon admitted in the editorial that he didn't quite nail the explanation to DiMaggio, and went on at more length:
In the 50's and 60's, it was fashionable to refer to baseball as a metaphor for America, and DiMaggio represented the values of that America: excellence and fulfillment of duty (he often played in pain), combined with a grace that implied a purity of spirit, an off-the-field dignity and a jealously guarded private life. ... He was the antithesis of the iconoclastic, mind-expanding, authority-defying 60's, which is why I think he suspected a hidden meaning in my lyrics. The fact that the lines were sincere and that they've been embraced over the years as a yearning for heroes and heroism speaks to the subconscious desires of the culture. We need heroes, and we search for candidates to be anointed.

That was a tasty bit of trivia Vir,Thanks !
Yes, it was originally called Mrs Roosevelt and I love the fact that many people think it flatters and honors her, because that means they succeeded in getting their obvious criticism of her out without offending anyone (sadly it also means that not many people actually got what it's really about - let's just say it has to do with certain rumors about her and I actually made a cover of it called Mrs. Clinton - fits great)
Emmanuel Goldstein - Thanks. I'll look for your rendition Mrs. Clinton on TH-cam. Cheers!
Someone’s spent to much on TH-cam
This is interesting. Without this context, I always interpreted it as a song about a woman going through AA/rehab for alcoholism. This is good to know!
The musicianship, vocals, sound production and songwriting are all impeccable.
It's a shame they broke up!
the guitar in my right ear sound amazing
+Ainsely Harriot sounds...spicy
Well, if you're going to have a guitar in your ear, I guess it's better if it sounds good, but thing whole thing sounds painful to me.
Dirk Gentley
thanks dad
Better see doctor, before it gets too noisy.
xD
Jesus loves us Alllll more than we will know.. my Favourite record from Simon and Garfunkel .
Anybody else get chills from the Joe DiMaggio line?
Always.
As a baseball fan, yes, I get chills from this line
Every time - and my daughter plays it often just for that reason!!!
All of us
I thought about him the day I found out Willy Mays died. The Joe DiMaggio line popped into my head and brought me back to this song.😂❤
Their music ages like fine wines.
¡Que dúo!!!lo escuché desde niña y siempre es de mi agrado escucharlos, ahora con 62 años creo los disfruto aún más..gracias a Dios por la oportunidad de estar junto con ellos en este mundo 🌎💕..gracias por compartir 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Finch and Stifler's Mom, oh the memories
Darn good song. I always love the Joe DiMaggio part. I feel like with sports gone right now this really describes this chaos. It’s very powerful
today it's more like where have you gone Pete Rose?
Kudos to my parents for playing the good music when I was little
Ikr
YESS SAME
Haha same
they should have told you to play a good game instead of roblox
@@bignig123 XD yeah well technically that was my decision
I have listened to the song 1000 times and will listen 1000 times more. It is SO FANTISTIC. The lyrics are amazing. COO COO A CHOO
Hello fan👋
Mais brasileiros além de mim por aqui?! Essa música me faz sentir que estou na estrada dentro de um fusca com uma mala de viagem no porta malas e o companheiro ao lado dirigindo com óculos escuros e cabelos ao vento enquanto esse som toca no rádio retrô. Sensações boas de uma juventude que não queria que passasse!
Meu tio estava para pintar seu amado Fusca.
O funileiro perguntou a cor, ele respondeu "verde sunga de negão".
E não é que tinha lá uma cor com esse nome?
Por acaso seu nome é Elaine ? kkk
Brazilian! I love ❤ Brazilians and Brazil!
é nois
Not from Brazil but yes it’s a VW road trip type of song
