My wife and I were there for that concert. It was the second time seeing S&G live, the first time was at Forrest Hills Tennis Stadium about 1970 or 71, just after Bridge was released. Awesome!
This song is love. Not the woke stuff. I’m crying with warmth towards my fellow humans but I can’t with ‘woke’ which fills me with anger. Ok, I’ll hush up.
Paul turned 83 years young on 13th October 2024. Congratulations, Mr Simon, for the sheer volume of work you have dedicated your life to. Your movie "In Restless Dreams" about your life's work in music is a must-see for us all. We salute you & thank you for your music & for providing a legacy of work that will live on, long after we depart this world! We luv ya, Paul! 🫡❤
@@UnsanHame they've had what could be considered a near life-long feud. Unfortunately it's what led to them disbanding and never really being able to come back together to work aside from one-off performances and shows. There are lots of articles and interviews that cover it.
Turning 70 years young in June.. this song really moves my heart, because my now deceased brother, Dennis, " Turkey" Archer played this album, over & over & over in the mid 60s, down in the basement of our house in Saginaw Michigan.
These guys were pioneers in music. There selfless contribution will endure for generations. What a legacy to know that you will be played long after you've passed.
Same age, now 67. For me this is the best rendition because of the passion in their voices but particularly because of the expression and finesse of the keyboard player. He is the real hero of this recording.
They may not be friends, but there is a mutual respect shown. They both know they would've needed a different path without the other. The path they chose put them both in esteemed territory.
Tom, I think they have a mutual beneficial working relationship. That's probably as far as I would take it without the benefit of having an intimate relationship with any of these two fabulous artists.
I love how Paul falls back at 4:13 to give Art his moment and then when Art realizes brings him back with him as Paul's clapping for him. The respect between these two. Such gentlemen
Came here to say the same thing. When Paul walks backward out of view, it's a perfect moment that I have played a thousand times. Hats off to the camera person and the editor/switcher for that shot.
Paul, the songwriter and artist. Art, the voice. These were the real strengths of each man individually. Together they performed songs that spoke for and to a generation. I'm grateful that it was the generation i grew up being a part of.
I am literally crying right now as this song is ending. The vocals, the goosebumps, the audience screaming. Two legends on stage making others happy with their music. Such a powerful song it breaks my heart...
OMG That could very well be the most beautiful song ever written. Makes me cry every time. The quality of music that these two did together in a short period of time, transcends generations. Thank you for this gift.❤
the sad fact they couldn't get along with one another they both were blaming the other person for doing something they couldn't as far as music was concerned.not realizing that both of them together made wonderful music and could not do it without the other.
Here I am, a middle age man. Half my life behind me and hopefully at least half in front of me. I listen to all types of music but find myself listening to this song in particular every so often. So few hits between this duo but oh what great songs they are. Whatever differences led them to separate, it is great to see them come together, sing this masterpiece, and show the ultimate respect to one another at the end. This comment will be buried with the rest, but wanted to give the credit these two deserve.
For me - in a very sad and meaningful moment - the line "when evening falls so hard" - performed in a way by Paul Simon that i just can't describe - means everything.
That's my favorite moment and I've watched it more times than I can count. It's the perfect camera angle with Paul backing up out of frame. Kudos to the camera crew.
@@thenlnlkn well, Art used to sing this particular song solo. It was always known that Paul is superior when it comes to songwriting, but Art is superior singer and this song shows best of both. This must be the best song Paul has written and the best vocal performance by Art.
You know, I have had a pretty bad day today. Nothing went right at work, my kids are struggling with college and I can't help them, and I' navigating the standard health challenges that most 60 year olds deal with. I ran across this video and watched it all the way through. None of that crap seems to be anything major now. These two men are legendary.
Awesome how music soothes the soul for you. At 6O I had my health turn on me. Lung cancer (able to conquer) clogged major artery my BRILLIANT doc grafted and a hyper thyroid we've been able to calm. Thru it all I used music to calm the fear. Putting our trust in total strangers is so hard but they earned my trust. My 3 girls are thru college and strong. I used to say I'd work til I died bc I loved my career but retired last yr And now hang out with my grandkids. Hope you're remaining calm still with music as you walk thru some strife. It's hard to be powerless but seems you know the way to calm...peace to you Mark. Just walk towards retirement. Lawdy it's great 😃.
People busting on Art's voice on this? Seriously? I am shocked and stunned that he is this good at age 68 here. No one's voice remains exactly the same at 70 as it was like 20. That being said.. Art still sounds like Art.. still has that signature sound and Paul sounds great too.
I don't think people get that a person's voice changes when they get old. I guess people still expect that they would still sound like their 20 something selves. Like you said, Art sounds good for his age....you can still hear the passion and emotion in his voice and it's still angelic as ever.
I don't think Art sounds horrible here, maybe not exactly the same, the only difference is he is singing at a lower key than the key he usually sings at. He still sounds very good actually. I think he smoked a lot which is why his voice might sound a little dark because of that. But it isn't terrible. His voice is just at a lower key in pitch. It still sounds great and he is still able to hit the notes, just one key and pitch down. Very good Art! Glad you are coming back!!!!!
There may NEVER be a duet like this again!!! This is what it sounds like when your voice is an instrument that just takes over everything else. Both are great by themselves but WOW - together - like no one else.
I think they´re both pretty good, and an amazing duo when singing harmonies, but Art´s voice is just out of this world. If angels could sing, I bet they would sound like Art here.
Depends on what you are listening to. This is legendary but there is also tons of great songs produced nowadays.. but if you're talking about the mainstream pop culture you're probably right.
+Jasder If we're talking mainstream music, then you're right. If you're talking music in general, you're wrong. There is still a lot of great Music being produced. It's just that the really passionat people have moved to different genres. For example, the rock/metal scene has grown into something really great, while some other genres like classic folk-rock has dissapeard. That's because the same kind of people who once wrote comfortably numb and sound of silence are now writing music in totally different genres.
See Joe Walsh's interview. Music is (including voice ) is run threw a computer until the pitch is perfect. Musicians can't hardly make a living due to pirates.
Art Garfunkel focusses so intensely on the perfection he puts out,he actually looks depleted.The miracle that is these voices.Still after all these years...classic wonderful.

These duo taught us that no matter how far they go, in their different ways, still music can bring them together and this song reminds us that friendship is something that we should treasure, and that's how magical the music it is. :)
For me... Its the Song of The Century... SIMON And GARFUNKEL ... It brings tears in my eyes and goosebumps whenever I listen to this Song... They are best duet Singers... I had ever listened to .. May they perform like this always... And May God shower His blessings on them🙏🙏🙏
This song, along with “The Sounds of Silence “ bring back so many fond memories! I’m 70 years old. As a kid , I would spend time staying at our family farm for a few weeks every Summer. I was 12 or 13 the first time I heard “The Sounds.....”, along with my surrogate Grandmother. I was amazed that someone “her age” liked that song!😆So many happy memories! I tell adults in their 20,s and 30,s to cherish and make the most of their time now, because they will make their best memories while they’re young! That certainly has been my experience, and most of the people I know in their later years! 🤔🤔
I listened to this in 10th grade. 1974. I went to the library and put the big fat headphones 🎧 on to listen on my lunch break. I cried then. I still cry. 😢 2024 💙🐾🎶🇺🇲
I can’t stop my self from having teary eyes while listening to the song as I remember my happy childhood in the late 70’ to early 90’s and wishing I can travel back and enjoy the simple life with my family.
Die beste Musik ever. Habe Simon Garfunkel in München gesehen. Einfach spitze. Könnten sie noch einmal auftreten, ich wäre bestimmt dabei. Egal, ob New York, Sydney oder Kapstadt.
They were childhood acquaintances since in 1953. They had their personal/professional differences. They did this tune justice back then and in this performance.
One of the greatest duets the world has ever seen. Love how Paul shows his appreciation at the end. After all the years of not talking, the bond was still there
At MSG that night, those last few moments Art was soloing, it almost felt as if the audience was physically uplifted, as the swell of applause mounted and crescendo’d simultaneous with Art concluding the song. I’ll never forget the communal sense of awe!
More than 15million views! Beautiful music, beautiful singing Art has an amazing voice, even at 65 - smokey and emotional. Paul has a simple voice, but a great ear for music and inspirational songwriting. It's a shame that the two friends from the Bronx who had lots in common and who complemented each others weakness weren't able to see themselves as an amazing partnership rather than two underappreciated individuals. Many songs that COULD HAVE been written and sung. But the for those few years together, they were giants.
Such a beautiful gift, this song. I was a young child when this song was written and released. Heard it on the radio for years and always liked it but only been recently could comprehend how remarkable it is. I grew up in a difficult home at times, but at 57, facing even tougher battles. When you have experienced trauma or hit rock bottom, you can truly understand how profound this song is and your heart aches for some comfort. One of the most beautiful songs ever written and recorded. Simon & Garfunkel, incredible duet and songwriters. They don’t make them like this anymore. Thank you for helping the troubled souls out there.
The way Paul leans back so art can do his magic completely shows what an amazing friendship they have and deep respect for each other. I get goosebumps when ever I hear them sing I swear this must be what heaven sounds like.
James, I completely agree with you. Every song they recorded together never failed to give me goosebumps and touch my soul. The 59th Street Bridge Song always plastered a big smile on my face and sparkles in my eyes. Such a light hearted and happy song.
My wife and I were there for that concert. It was the second time seeing S&G live, the first time was at Forrest Hills Tennis Stadium about 1970 or 71, just after Bridge was released. Awesome!
Two humble men singing one of the greatest songs ever.
Love,love this video!
I agree.
Humble?? Paul Simon?
I don't know about the humble part but the rest I agree with.
Not sure they are humble towards each other though seeing this performance ...
Simon and Garfunkel are simply in a class of their own.
Imho this is the best rendition of this song, Audio and video. I watched it many times.
Amazing 🙂

Happy Belated Birthday, Sir Bridge Over Troubled Waters.
Despite all their drama, they are still one of the best duets ever. Their music will live on forever in my life for sure.
What drama?
@@UnsanHame they've had what could be considered a near life-long feud. Unfortunately it's what led to them disbanding and never really being able to come back together to work aside from one-off performances and shows. There are lots of articles and interviews that cover it.
@@brianjs On the other hand, maybe this feud made them what they are - the legends loved by the hundreds of millions.
Wasn’t it that Simon wanted to focus on music purely, and Art wanted other things
Also Kudos to the pianist - outstanding!
Turning 70 years young in June.. this song really moves my heart, because my now deceased brother, Dennis, " Turkey" Archer played this album, over & over & over in the mid 60s, down in the basement of our house in Saginaw Michigan.
I used to play it over and over and over too. I think it’s the most beautiful song ever written.
One of my many favorite songs. 2024
These guys were pioneers in music. There selfless contribution will endure for generations. What a legacy to know that you will be played long after you've passed.
It is unhealthy how many times I have watched this.
Nup....sorry got to disagree.....TOTALLY Healthy :)
Nah good for the soul xo! One of the best songs ever made. Elvis did one hell of a job too on this song
Art Garfunkel Paul Simon never die
I listen to thus just about every night before I fall asleep ❣️❣️
i feel the same
The pianist is brilliant.
How Paul just disappears in the end to let Art sing and get the spotlight, and the smile afterwards, it's beautiful..
One of the best duos in music industry.. Their legacy will live on for generations. We thank thee Simon & Garfunkel
I, at 66 years old, would like to thank these two men for, sure listened to them for years, for being. Their music is immortal.
Having my last days as a teen listening to them now. Listened to them occasionally since 2018
I am also 66. ❤
Same age, now 67. For me this is the best rendition because of the passion in their voices but particularly because of the expression and finesse of the keyboard player. He is the real hero of this recording.
Ms.shoosh I am 73 and ditto!
I’m 70 and still rocking. Never will I change. I’m stuck in the 70s era.
Watching it now. 01-01-2024. Timeless.
Sharing 72 years on this planet along with Simon and Garfunkel. Thank you.
And the 'unsung hero' - the piano player, incredible.
Am 70 years old this song came out when I was a teenager and it is still very beautiful and still well done by those two
I see two friends enjoying their short time together. One of the greatest songs ever.
+Johnny Johnson Couldn't agree more
perfectly said.:)
Friends? I doubt these two guys have anything close to a friendly relationship. Body language and story speak against that.
They may not be friends, but there is a mutual respect shown. They both know they would've needed a different path without the other. The path they chose put them both in esteemed territory.

Wish theyd never parted

I agree 100%
I just love how Paul is clapping and looking at Art at the end...just beautifull

Art Garfunkel.. His Voice is unique and unattainable forever. What a Genius...
No reply,just be great full for pur talent
I will be 60 this month.. born in the 60s.. this song is so powerful. Art Garfunkel - you deliver!!! 🎉❤️❤️❤️
Paul, the songwriter and artist. Art, the voice. These were the real strengths of each man individually. Together they performed songs that spoke for and to a generation.
I'm grateful that it was the generation i grew up being a part of.
So agree. Paul the writer. Art, the most incredible voice.
I am 70 now. I listened to this song when I was 17. Remain in my mind n Heart. Love all ❤. From Singapore
One of the few examples of real music.
I am 82 and feel exactly the same as you. No one ever better!
Moi aussie, in Texas
Possibly the greatest live performance of a song ever
I agree!
The concert in the park version for me wins hands down. This song is only for Art Garfunkel to sing. It encapsulates me every single time I watch it.
When they came back together and harmonised, my heart swelled. Beautiful
The contrasting individuality of them both acts as a uniform, a true Simon and Garfunkel moment.
salutation dresseurs
bonjourr
I wish they came back together again, despite they now in their 80s
What an uniquely angelic voice Art Garfunkel has, what a gift to humanity, what a privilege for us mortals to listen to….
I am literally crying right now as this song is ending. The vocals, the goosebumps, the audience screaming. Two legends on stage making others happy with their music. Such a powerful song it breaks my heart...

For me - in a very sad and meaningful moment - the line "when evening falls so hard" - performed in a way by Paul Simon that i just can't describe - means everything.
Can never get tired of this song, no matter how many times it is redone.
I'm still loving this in 2024--love all you good people!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Man, so much respect to Simon at 4:10 when he holds Garfunkel's back to give the part and seeing his lips sing as he walks backwards.
And the way Garfunkel then grabs Simon at the end of the song as to say 'you were a big part of this too'. Love it
Paul Simon always said he wrote this song specifically to showcase Art’s voice. He wrote the solos into it for Art to sing.
Well he wrote it for Artie so he’s like yeah I’ll sing one verse but you can finish it like always
You have to remmerber Simon wrote all this songs, but with our Garfunkel voice the songs who be nothing I sam them in concert 3 times
That's my favorite moment and I've watched it more times than I can count. It's the perfect camera angle with Paul backing up out of frame. Kudos to the camera crew.
How classy that Paul stepped back and let Art have the big finish!
After all that time being second fiddle, art really earned it
@Jim Allen Yeah they did. When they harmonize, a third voice sings.
@@thenlnlkn well, Art used to sing this particular song solo. It was always known that Paul is superior when it comes to songwriting, but Art is superior singer and this song shows best of both. This must be the best song Paul has written and the best vocal performance by Art.
I am thankful I lived during this era of all these fabulous singes. Great music. Love listening to this.
This is what perfection sounds like,take a nice long look.❤️
The way Paul steps back respectfully and lets Art take this soaring to the end says alot.
Pure vocals,no ear plugs either
Wow…… just wow…. One of the greatest singing duos of all time. Glad these are preserved for generations to come here on TH-cam….❤
Paul Simon is absolutely the best songwriter in the music history

I adore Simon to give that last part to Garfunkel. These 2 are legend!
Holy shit. Magic. The whole song is great, but from "Sail on Silver Girl" on is where the song goes next level imo.
I never understood their differences, however, when the two sing together it is ethereal!
It's miracle that two more than 60 years old people can sing a song like this.
They are both in their 70's,always have been utterly amazed by their songs even as a child.
yeah you are right!!!
lin rui they were both 68 when this occured
Love them both! Art Garfunkle's voice is truly sublime and his pitch is impeccable. Goose Bumps.
I love how Garfunkel dresses when performing, jeans and some shirt, it’s so casual
Simon's face while clapping at 4:43 really shows the great respect and admiration for Art

I am astounded! This performance of Bridge Over Troubled Water is like a BIG time mind blowing totally wicked display of talent
Hello Susan
Die beste Musik ever. Habe Simon Garfunkel in München gesehen. Einfach spitze. Könnten sie noch einmal auftreten, ich wäre bestimmt dabei. Egal, ob New York, Sydney oder Kapstadt.
August 6 2024 still enjoying this masterpiece...❤never equalled Simon n Garfunkel ...You are Lagend!
They were childhood acquaintances since in 1953. They had their personal/professional differences. They did this tune justice back then and in this performance.
These two are a national treasure.
Two of the greatest singers ever.
Two of the greatest singers ever.
When they came back together and harmonised, my heart swelled. Beautiful
Yes!
why did you copy someone else's comment?
I know they've had their differences over the years, but that shot at 5:19 when they look at each other with such joy is amazing.
One of the greatest duets the world has ever seen. Love how Paul shows his appreciation at the end. After all the years of not talking, the bond was still there
At MSG that night, those last few moments Art was soloing, it almost felt as if the audience was physically uplifted, as the swell of applause mounted and crescendo’d simultaneous with Art concluding the song. I’ll never forget the communal sense of awe!
Paul Simon's solo is masterful.
He should have left it to Art
2:54 playing THAT song while being watched by those 2 legends. That's the definition of pressure.
More than 15million views! Beautiful music, beautiful singing
Art has an amazing voice, even at 65 - smokey and emotional.
Paul has a simple voice, but a great ear for music and inspirational songwriting.
It's a shame that the two friends from the Bronx who had lots in common and who complemented each others weakness weren't able to see themselves as an amazing partnership rather than two underappreciated individuals. Many songs that COULD HAVE been written and sung. But the for those few years together, they were giants.
I thought the great duo was both born in Queens as childhood friends.
Such a beautiful gift, this song. I was a young child when this song was written and released. Heard it on the radio for years and always liked it but only been recently could comprehend how remarkable it is. I grew up in a difficult home at times, but at 57, facing even tougher battles. When you have experienced trauma or hit rock bottom, you can truly understand how profound this song is and your heart aches for some comfort.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written and recorded. Simon & Garfunkel, incredible duet and songwriters. They don’t make them like this anymore.
Thank you for helping the troubled souls out there.
I love this song.....plus part of it is quoted in my yearbook ......from 1970 "Sail on silver girl, sail on by...."
Hello Gail
A sensitive performance for a classic. ❤
Awesome duo. Takes me back decades to life as it used to be when I was a teenager. Love their music. Thanks so much for being.
Hello beautiful lady
The way Paul leans back so art can do his magic completely shows what an amazing friendship they have and deep respect for each other. I get goosebumps when ever I hear them sing I swear this must be what heaven sounds like.
julie f deep respect yes but at that time their friendship was really troubled
One of the greatest songs ever written and it is still a masterpiece. Cool and lovely ❤️ Hi Julie, how are you doing?
When they start singing the last verse ("I'm sailing right behind...") I get chills.
Oh Yes...Same here
i do too.
I did as well and really never liked the song.
Ohhh yesss. Tears.
so put on a cardigan, seaman john.
they are both decent singers when singing by themselves, but man when they come together and harmonize, its flawless!!!
James, I completely agree with you. Every song they recorded together never failed to give me goosebumps and touch my soul. The 59th Street Bridge Song always plastered a big smile on my face and sparkles in my eyes. Such a light hearted and happy song.
Truly blessed by God!!Two of the greatest singers of all time!! Just love them!!
Garfunkel's voice just pierces your soul. Epic.
