Happy Sunday morning, all! I hope you enjoy our cover of this Simon and Garfunkel classic, The Sound of Silence. And thanks again to our friends at Kyser Capos for sending us those beautiful rosewood capos to use on this song! The one I'm using in the video is actually specially designed for classical guitar, so it's a little wider to cover the larger neck, which is awesome.

Art's roommate in college had a nickname "Darkness" because he was legally blind and the words to this song shows Art's interpretation of the world around him. Great job ladies! (missed you too!)
When I was in elementary school, I think it was grade 4 or 5, our teacher made us learn this song. It was many years before I understood it, but my point is that it's been with me for the past 53 years. In that time there have been a handful of covers that I found worthy of the original. Yours is one of them.
I have watched you every Sunday for years with my coffee in hand. But today I would especially like to thank you for a wonderful 66th birthday present. This performance. 👍👍👀🎸🙏
And I just got the cinco de mayo kyser capo and it really works great. It was 25% off at the kyser store, and with the extra 10% a no brainer. Thank you!
I, too, am a long time listener but never comment. This, however, was stunning. I can’t count how many times I’ve listened to this song in my lifetime, but I can’t remember one that moved me as much as listening to you talented young women. I must have clicked “replay” a half a dozen times.
Wow! Beautiful harmony. Toni's muted guitar - just on the edge of silence at just the right times is amazing. Their covers are always more enjoyable than the originals in my mind.
I love the covers too. When the young ones do the old songs so themselves but so respectful and so appreciative of the originals, it's almost like we actually do have a culture.
I'm 73 and this so reminds of my youth when life seemed so carefree as I remember it now but I guess it wasn't.I'm pretty sure it was in the backing of one of my favourite movies then too-The Graduate ,when I fell in love with Katherine Ross. Simon and Garfunkel would be so happy with your beautiful performance ladies.
Hearing this song as a kid in the 60s a million times I never even noticed it. Now as an old guy I am getting quite emotional listening to you all put your heart and soul into this song. Thankyou
When I was in graduate school, I played a cassette tape of Simon and Garfunkel singing this song until it was little more than shreds. Your rendition is, if anything, even tighter than the original. A masterful tribute to an iconic song. Thank you so much!
You take me back to my 5 year old self, watching my father in his easy chair, pointing out to me the hauntingly beautiful harmonic vocal runs (yes he was a music nerd). I enjoy the other covers of this song, but you two capturing the tight vocals that made S&G so amazing for their time is a treat. ❤ I listen most Sundays but don’t always comment. I just had to today. Thank you.
An iconic,haunting and timeless tune in its original form but this rendition....well..it was truly breathtaking. I'm not surprised though. These particular musicians are exemplary and have never,in my recollection,played a bad cover. As usual,they knocked this song out of the park. Well done girls👏👏👏👏👏👏
Such a great interpretation of a classic with some nice subtle additions. It’s mind boggling that Paul Simon wrote these lyrics at only 21 years of age. One of the greatest song writers of all time.
I think it's becoming a common occurrence for me to say, "I think this is my favorite thing y'all have done." This is one of my all-time favorites and you 2 did not disappoint at all. I'm going to put this easily in my top 5 covers of this song with ease. That was awesome!!! Thank you!
You two amazing talented young women just put the biggest smile on this old Viet Nam Vets face and in my heart.....thank you so much---never stop!!😇🥰😎🙏
A dystopian nightmare, reminiscent of the last verse of American Pie. “In the streets, the children screamed, the lovers cried and the poets dreamed, but not a word was spoken, the church bells all were broken”. You do Paul Simon so well.
Wow. I never noticed how much that last line resonates with this song-almost as if they are both referencing the same moment in time. Thanks for this comment!
"church bells"?? I thought it was "battle droids"! Hey, it's Sunday morning and my resistance is way down. I tried, I tried. And I'm of that much older generation, too.
Reina's voice is unique. Her voice is neither thin nor very husky, but it's very comfortable and soft. Her singing style is also light and warm. I want to listen to it no matter how much I listen to it. Tony's guitar and harmony are also great. It's a fantastic combination
You two girls gave this classic song, and especially its lyrics, all the respect it deserves. Many thanks for always showing the lyrics on your videos. Extra care much appreciated. Love you two.
Thank you so much for this fine rendition of a classic song. You did it full justice. Few things sound as nice as two part harmonies done by musicians that understand each other blind. You two have definitly reached this stage. Couldn't take my eyes off Toni's right hand.
I'm completely bewitched by the agility of Toni's right hand. What's more, she takes the liberty of singing and thus creating harmonies. This is one of the most accomplished videos on this channel. Along with "What a wonderful". Obviously, my tastes are my own. C'est fantastique. :)
@@johntomlinson-j6x I think she's made a guitar tablature. Yep! But when her hand strums the strings, with her fingertips, or fingernails, and comes back nimbly in arpeggio. I've rarely seen that technique. In fact, the real question is: what instrument doesn't Toni know how to play? I'm sure she can play the drums. But maybe not the harp, because it's a complicated and rare instrument? Haha! We are lucky!
Just discovered Riena and Toni. I first heard this on Simon and Garfunkel's album in 1964 and was amazed at the lyrics a 21 year old wrote. I might add those same lyrics are even more profound today in our World some 59 years later. Your take on the song is much like theirs. Sounding sweetly harmonic underlying the disturbing message in a world gone mad. Beautiful!
Happy Sunday morning❤ I thoroughly enjoyed your cover of this S&G tune. I listen to it 3 times to take in all the intricacies of the guitar and harmonies...so good. Birds liked it too.
When I was about 13 years old they took a group of about 50 of us boys out of classes for a couple of days and we formed a choir. We sang this and I am a Rock over and over again. To this day I’ve no idea why this happened, but it was the highlight of my five years in school.
Oof, everytime I think "Nah, this song is so worn out, I don't really want to hear another cover" you blow me away anyway, with a version I from now on like best. You two are incredible!
just spent my day off listening to you and your friends, cool music. cool songs and cool musicians/singers. my favourite would have to be 'This one's gonna hurt' followed closely by your short vid, not sure what it's called but started with 'Hello are you scrolling alone in your room'. great day off after all, thankyou and hope you are keeping well.
I am a happily married old great grandpa so in the context understand I love you girls and hope you keep making beautiful music together and keep classic and classy pieces like this tune alive. Love your arrangement and harmonies and finger picking. This song has difficult phrasing but you nailed it. Excellent cover.
Once in a while a musician finds a song that their voice is designed for. This is one of those for Reina. Goodness me that was wonderful. "And the sign said the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls"... that bit gave me full-on goosebumps! Thank you.
Great job! Not an easy song to do. The "lower" harmony is one of the toughest things I ever practiced. Toni nails it. And, of course, Reinas' voice rings. Thank you and happy Sunday.
You guys are extremely talented 👏 🙌 and do such a wonderful job with one of the most important and greatest songs ever written Thanks for your style and ability ❤🎉
I’ve been following these young ladies for a few years now. That’s there was Awesome. Reina and Toni, you both great. I absolutely loved your singing, as well as your guitar playing.
This is one of the best covers of this song! And thank goodness it's true to the original not another Disturbed version which everybody is doing these days. Hope to hear more S&G songs from these talented artists.
Wow! Loved the Harmonies! Your two voices where destined to sing together. Such a glorious tone such wonderful music. Like Simon and Garfunkle, your voices blend and harmonise so wonderfully. Im a huge fan, but Im blown away by this cover. Thanks so much. Peace and love from Australia.
Hello, John mccartney from England. I'm so glad that the Sunday mornings have returned. What a beautiful version of a great song. I was fairly young when this song was released, I'm 77 now. I wished I could have weathered as well as that song has.
I have CHILLBUMPS! One of my “awakening” songs, I wrote an essay on this for HS English class. You two did it service! Still too relevant today, when people talk without really speaking their hearts, when they hear but don’t really pay attention and understand. Bless you!

Art's roommate in college had a nickname "Darkness" because he was legally blind and the words to this song shows Art's interpretation of the world around him. Great job ladies! (missed you too!)
Benavides John: Hi Reina and Toni with an I. Loved your performance this week!!
This is perfect. The harmonies are spot on. It's a song that really suits both of your voices and I love it. Thank you.
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written in the last 100 years.
Paul Simon rocks
Beautiful!! Your harmonies are amazing.
Without a doubt. And the way these two play and sing it is something other worldly.
Agreed. No question.
Yes it is

Happy birthday, Dave! 🎉
The connection between Reina and Toni sends chills through me.
It's a connection only lesbians can have.
I'm 70 years old and remember this song like yesterday. You have filled my cup till it runneth over. I am joy filled!! thank you both.
Very nicely done ladies . I'm a 76 year old man with good memories from the era . Thanks !
68!❤😂🎉
Toni harmonizes with Reina! Is there anything Toni can’t do! I could listen to them all day!
No.
There is NOTHING Toni can't do.
A stone cold pro.
And I just got the cinco de mayo kyser capo and it really works great. It was 25% off at the kyser store, and with the extra 10% a no brainer. Thank you!
❤😢
Fully agree, they are out of this world.
@@dealzrightToni is doing all the clever stuff. Reina is just playing C, G, and D chords.
I’ve been playing : singing this song for twenty years but have never even come close to this video! Y’all made my day!!! Ottawa, Canada
Speechless... Dicovered these girls yesterday and now I can't seem to stop watching and listening!
Much love!
I am in the 70's .. by watching you two young ladies bringing my youth back 50 years , great job!
The dynamic duo do it again. Brilliant 🎶🎸🎶😀

Yes I never liked the original. Reina and Toni sound way better!
@@robertvanruyssevelt7159 I love the original. But I agree with your second sentence :)
I'm 73 and this so reminds of my youth when life seemed so carefree as I remember it now but I guess it wasn't.I'm pretty sure it was in the backing of one of my favourite movies then too-The Graduate ,when I fell in love with Katherine Ross.
Simon and Garfunkel would be so happy with your beautiful performance ladies.
Im 73 also, It reminds me of my youth, not so carefree. I was slouging around rice paddies and the jungle with my rifle, trying to stay in one piece!
Thousands people were waiting for this by you silently: the day came - and the rendition has been even greater than expected.
Diese Interpretation braucht sich vor dem Original nicht zu verstecken, sie hat eine ganz eigene Schönheit und Stärke! Absolutely marvelous!
Und endlich mal Mädels auf TH-cam, die musikalisch überzeugen, statt sich halb auszuziehen...
Ich liebe dieses Lied. Es ist selten interpretiert bei Mädchen.
Hearing this song as a kid in the 60s a million times I never even noticed it. Now as an old guy I am getting quite emotional listening to you all put your heart and soul into this song. Thankyou
I am totally flabbergasted. Incredible. Pure joy and pleasure. So many thanks. And I am sure the birds do love you and your music as well.
Man but really you had to use the word flabbergasted
Maybe you try to watch also the version of the voice teen's duet in the voice PH. Queenie vs Patricia the sound of silence.
When I was in graduate school, I played a cassette tape of Simon and Garfunkel singing this song until it was little more than shreds. Your rendition is, if anything, even tighter than the original. A masterful tribute to an iconic song. Thank you so much!
I have never heard so much beauty in one place. A harmonious blend of melodic voices.
You take me back to my 5 year old self, watching my father in his easy chair, pointing out to me the hauntingly beautiful harmonic vocal runs (yes he was a music nerd). I enjoy the other covers of this song, but you two capturing the tight vocals that made S&G so amazing for their time is a treat. ❤ I listen most Sundays but don’t always comment. I just had to today. Thank you.
....but now deservingly this easy chair!
.....but the rocking stopped by wheels of dispair!
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, Reina and Toni! This classic deserves a place in your concert performances. 👍👍
Thank you Reina and Toni, beautiful music on one of my favourite tunes.
An iconic,haunting and timeless tune in its original form but this rendition....well..it was truly breathtaking. I'm not surprised though. These particular musicians are exemplary and have never,in my recollection,played a bad cover. As usual,they knocked this song out of the park. Well done girls👏👏👏👏👏👏
One of the BEST renditions of this song I've ever heard. Ya'll are truly amazing!!
Terrific cover. Reina’s voice never sounded better. Great second voice and playing by Toni!
I remember when this song was released by Simon and Garfunkel. You ladies just gave me chills with your rendition.❤
Very moving and soul stirring. I’m grateful that I found your channel, and the other musicians you have performed with on TH-cam.
Such a great interpretation of a classic with some nice subtle additions. It’s mind boggling that Paul Simon wrote these lyrics at only 21 years of age. One of the greatest song writers of all time.
As a man who grew up listening to the original, I can say this comes very close to it… Great job ladies…
Oh wow! This is probably the best I have heard this song sung ever. You two ladies are amazing!
I think it's becoming a common occurrence for me to say, "I think this is my favorite thing y'all have done." This is one of my all-time favorites and you 2 did not disappoint at all. I'm going to put this easily in my top 5 covers of this song with ease. That was awesome!!! Thank you!
So good to hear young folks playing the music of my youth, and performing well, without the need for all the flash.
How beautiful, c est tellement joli et agréable de vous écoutez, thank you 😊
You two amazing talented young women just put the biggest smile on this old Viet Nam Vets face and in my heart.....thank you so much---never stop!!😇🥰😎🙏
Finally, my favourite song and, as always, an amazing performance that does the song justice - thank you and have a great Sunday!
A dystopian nightmare, reminiscent of the last verse of American Pie. “In the streets, the children screamed, the lovers cried and the poets dreamed, but not a word was spoken, the church bells all were broken”.
You do Paul Simon so well.

"church bells"?? I thought it was "battle droids"!
Hey, it's Sunday morning and my resistance is way down. I tried, I tried. And I'm of that much older generation, too.
@@blindleader42 I think that's from 'The Sounds of Star Wars'. . .
@@TheRamsberg No, no. It's from Imperial Pie, or maybe Phantom PIe. I'm sure of it's one of those.
@@blindleader42 I was joking about "church bells" being "battle droids", and the latter of which being in the 'Star Wars' movies.
Outstanding! Especially the vocals. A very nice treat for a Sunday morning. Thank you.
Reina's voice is unique. Her voice is neither thin nor very husky, but it's very comfortable and soft. Her singing style is also light and warm. I want to listen to it no matter how much I listen to it. Tony's guitar and harmony are also great. It's a fantastic combination
This was perfect. Anything more wouldn't have been as good. Anything less wouldn't have been as good. Love it.
A record truly worthy of praise. It does not fall only on deaf ears. Thanks, as always, for sharing.
Incredible! Toni’s guitar … exquisite! And your harmonies are so perfect. Best cover of this song I’ve ever heard.
This song is a masterpiece and you two honor that with this powerful, moving cover. Absolutely beautiful vocals and guitars.
A worthy cover of a beautiful song. Thanks for playing it for us.
Broke the sound of bedtime silence to visit my two fav ladies for their beautiful version of a Simon/Garfuncle classic.
@captain
Garfunkel
😂
Beautiful music by beautiful ladies on a beautiful morning here in Kentucky! Can’t ask for much more than that. Thank you!
What a Sound of Silence! Beautiful! 🥰
What an happy Sunday morning ! I love when you cover a classic. Great performance.
Nothing against Disturbed, but harmonizing like Paul and Art just took me back to listening to this 50 years ago. The voices of angels....
Nothing against these women, either, but Disturbed’s cover was professional beyond the pale.
Excellence is excellence.
You two girls gave this classic song, and especially its lyrics, all the respect it deserves. Many thanks for always showing the lyrics on your videos. Extra care much appreciated. Love you two.
A fantastic song, beautifully sung and played in full harmony. This melody can never be forgotten and stays in the ears forever.
Literally said “wow” out loud after the second word. Vocals are perfect on this.
Thank you so much for this fine rendition of a classic song. You did it full justice.

Brillant as usual ❤
Precious cover. Love the playing, singing, the whole thing.

Perfect song for your combined vocal and guitar skills and chemistry. One of the nicer covers you’ve ever done.
That was pristine, totally mesmerizing. You didn't only do justice to a great song, you owned it and had me nearly in tears.
Oof, everytime I think "Nah, this song is so worn out, I don't really want to hear another cover" you blow me away anyway, with a version I from now on like best. You two are incredible!

Did you hear (like millions and millions before you 🙂 ) Disturbed doing this on "Conan" in 2016?
It's quite disturbing how good.....
Disturbed. Nuff said
Overproduced and easily digestible garbage for the masses. Disturbeds cover is the McDonalds hamburger of covers@@jimgordon3468
A wonderful rendition of a passionate and heart felt song by one of the best song writer/artists in history. Well done ladies! 👍
Wonderful version!
Toni-As usual you really know how to support the song! Not easy.
Reina-Great vocal! You are beautiful this morning!
I am speechless, such a beautiful version. You are on top of the mountain, in my eyes.
Once in a while a musician finds a song that their voice is designed for. This is one of those for Reina. Goodness me that was wonderful. "And the sign said the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls"... that bit gave me full-on goosebumps! Thank you.
Amazing arrangement! It sounded so much like the original but noticeably and pleasantly different at the same time.
Wow - just pure musical class. Paul Simon is a genius and I’m sure he would appreciate this version very much.
I like Simon and Garfunkel💗
Great job! Not an easy song to do. The "lower" harmony is one of the toughest things I ever practiced. Toni nails it. And, of course, Reinas' voice rings. Thank you and happy Sunday.
I feel the same about the lower harmonies. But if you do it well, the lead voice shines brightly. Reina and Toni nailed it! 😊
I enjoyed your sound of silence .. Cheers !
Magnifica versión. Enhorabuena a las dos. Saludos desde España, la patria del Cid.
A classic version of a classic, thank you
Just love this rendition, most notably the harmony. 😍
Wow... such a beautiful voice and harmony... so cool♡♡♡♡♡♡♡❤❤❤
Your harmonies are SO DAMN GOOD! awesome work!
You guys are extremely talented 👏 🙌 and do such a wonderful job with one of the most important and greatest songs ever written
Thanks for your style and ability
❤🎉
This gave me chills. One of your best performances ever.
Instant chills, instant frisson when you both started singing. Holy crap.
相変わらず素晴らしいカバー。初めて英語の歌詞を憶えた歌で懐かしい。何かよく分からないが、知的な雰囲気に惹かれた。cobblestone、cancer、 prophets とかはこの歌で知った単語。
Bravo les filles, respect pour vôtre immense talent . Du
Sud-ouest de la France. ❤
Goosebumps! So good!
Interprétation formidable très juste et en tout respect pour Simon and Garfunkul
Stunning harmony, ladies👍
You can’t imagine how many times I played this. This is just so good. Thank you!
I’ve been following these young ladies for a few years now.
That’s there was Awesome.

Super gespielt und gesungen. Schöne Grüße aus Österreich (Austria) aus dem Land der Burgen (Burgenland)
It's a thumbs up from down under. Great sound girls. Well done.
Killer guitar, tone, & harmonies. The stop in the middle followed by the doubled guitars made me cheer
Well composed! Very elegant! Nice! Well done!
Very beautiful performance in a relaxed atmosphere.
You ladies are so easy to listen to, thank you for sharing.
Coffee cheers to you both!☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️
Wow! Loved the Harmonies! Your two voices where destined to sing together. Such a glorious tone such wonderful music. Like Simon and Garfunkle, your voices blend and harmonise so wonderfully. Im a huge fan, but Im blown away by this cover. Thanks so much. Peace and love from Australia.
The intensity and emotion was stunning! Thank you so much. We saw you both in Seattle last year and the show was amazing!
