- As half of Simon & Garfunkel, Art Garfunkel dominated the pop charts, scoring hits like "Cecilia" and No. 1 records "Bookends" and "Bridge Over Troubled Water." After the duo split in 1970, Garfunkel moved onto a successful solo career. He and Paul Simon were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990 and later received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. Garfunkel joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss his new memoir, "What Is It All But Luminous: Notes from an Underground Man."

The way he speaks is just poetry. Just like their songs. So beautiful, so smooth, so elegant
He IS a poet after all.......
he didn't write the songs. Paul did.
His voice is like no other. When you put Art and Paul together, it's such beautiful harmony.
Yes. The two of them blend beautifully.
Same for the three Beatles, Paul, John and George. Listen to BECAUSE. It's from heaven.
Traduccion
Like John and Paul. Same thing, same generation.
Why ask the man questions if you're going to cut him off during his answers? Just shut up and let the guest talk. We are not tuned in to hear you ask questions, we are here to hear the answers.
lol thats cbs ... typical
Time constraints make this necessary. Would you prefer he ramble on--not that he did--on one of his answers not allowing for any other questions? I thought they were respectful and you could see the interviewers were huge admirers of his.
For all his sins, Charlie Rose was still a great interviewer, his archive online is probably the most comprehensive collection of diverse American reference points and fascinating people.
i just came to comment the same thing
Increase the time available then.
He's more intelligent than everyone in that building combined. Joy to listen to him sing and even speak.
You are correct in your statement "He's [Art Garfunkel] more intelligent than everyone in that building combined." But that also wouldn't require much to exceed, considering who comprises "everyone" at CBS these days.
@@gymnastix Such snarky comments. Apparently from a couple of geniuses.
Believe he taught mathematics in school as well.
@@brucetowell3432 Columbia University, I want to say.
@@WorldEnds41 Yes, think you are right. thanks
I used to be amazed about Art's musical voice and now I'm amazed about his verbal expression, could listen to him for hours. Marvelous storyteller
he didn't write the songs though.
His manner of expression made me cry. Beautiful man.
Love love LOVE Art Garfunkle!! So glad he is still with us. He is absolutely one of the world's purist artists!!
Yes. We are losing the s1960s artists as they hit their seventy year decade. Many of them were heavey drinkers or druggies, or had unhealthy lifestyles - food, sleep, smoking.
I just his 70 and it really hits you. Things that were just annoying in younger years become conditions requiring medicine.
I think of the song lyirc by Neil Young, ITS BETTER TO BURN OUT THAN FADE AWAY. Lots of performers burned their candles at both ends in that era and we miss their light.
Couldn't agree more. His voice is unique, powerful and beautiful. Listen to "Brigge over Troubled Water" for a lesson in lead vocals.
He's talking about his song writing, she stops him, and says "but its your voice that really captivates people. What a waste of a good chance to learn more about what's in Art.
P Pumpkin I agree. The meaning behind the sound is what’s captivating.
He Need A New Album or Live Album for 2021
That exact part irritated me too. Pretty rude thing to say
Gayle is too awful for words.
🗽🇺🇲 Totally air head presenter's same here in the UK 🏴🎸
He’s such a class act. Love him.
He seems like such a beautiful person. And he is possessed of an extremely beautiful and mellifluous speaking voice. It’s no surprise that he sings so wonderfully. What is surprising is that a man who speaks so eloquently has never really been much of a songwriter...
The man is a legend - his talent is amazing
Marvellous man, marvellous intellect, beautiful sensibility and beautiful, beautiful voice. So grateful for his music in my time.
Art Garfunkel Morphed into Ed Koch.
Don't lose your day job, pal.
Bridge over Troubled Waters was written by Paul Simon specifically for art's voice. That last verse was added after the song was first recorded. Classic!
I didn't know that about the last verse. Thanks for posting. That verse is totally different from the ones before it. Sail on silver bird...
@PATRICK SULLIVAN oops
Nate Art asked for the last verse “ as the money verse “ as I understood it 🍻
@@The22on It's "sail on, silver girl" not silver bird. Paul wrote it about his wife who found her first grey hair.
"I produced the Simon and Garfunkel records" - pretty bold statement by Artie - wonder what Paul Simon and Roy Halee would say about that claim?
I Love Simon and Garfunkel, in fact I have spent the morning trying to forget Corona-virus, and just
enjoying the smooth harmonies of the two of them. Particularly Art whose voice is "Heavenly" May
I take this opportunity to thank you both for the beautiful songs you both crafted in the 1960's. God
bless you both in all your future endeavours. From a big Fan here in the UK.
"Bridge over Troubled Water" still gets to me because I never really had the chance to overtly tell someone I admire who's 23 years older than I am how much he means to me at a difficult moment in his life
one of the greatest singers that has ever existed
When i was 6 years old back in South Korea, and I’ve heard the voices of both Art and Paul for the first time on a black and white television. Furthermore, me not knowing anything about music (still I don’t know much), I thought they sounded like angels.
And I still listen to Simon and Garfunkel even nowadays. Art Garfunkel once described Paul Simon as a sensitive poet. I cannot agreed more. And what a voice to go with the beautiful music...
I will always cherish Art and Paul. Until the end!
I listened to S & G since I was 10 years old and love their music more than ever. I am captivated by their beautiful sound and obsessed with them and their stories. True icons ❤
Steve Carinci nailed it refering to Art Garfunkel's Breakaway album! One of my top 3 recordings of all time! I never tire of listening to it. I love Simon and Garfunkel records! I grew up with them. Along with the Beatles they were the first artist I listened to at age 5 0r 6! Art's solo albums were my favorites! Still gives me goose bumps when I listen!
I am so blessed to have grown up with Simon and Garfunkel and other greats from this era.
Art is autistic isn't he ? You can see it in that famous 1983 live concert - you can just see it in him, but back then would not have been diagnosed or even understood. That concert - if u watch it - they have NO chemistry on stage at all between each other no eye contact at all. Bizarre. I love Paul Simon. I love their songs so much . They are both awesome. It' s no wonder they have not got on at times,
Paul and Art perfect harmony signature sound together, legends for a 1000 years.
Such a pleasurable old man .The man is a legend - his talent is amazing!
He’s an awesome singer. Beautiful voice.
You have a music icon, a living legend in the studio, and you don't even listen to what the man has to say. I came here to listen to Art Garfunkel. You cut him off numerous times. Art Garfunkel handled it very politely. Someone should get fired. This is one of the most unprofessional interviews I have ever seen.
Charlie Rose is famous for doing that. When he had his own show, it was a trademark that the people he interviewed never got a word in edgewise.
huh? I watch his shows all the time, and he lets' people elucidate unless they're clearly rambling. This one felt nothing like those interviews. Gayle freakin' cut off Art talking about his writing process (which she asked him about) by saying "But, it's your voice that matters." Good lord.
Always thought he was a very good singer. Particularly liked Bright eyes. He must also be very fit as he done a lot of walking,even across continents.
yeah.. some interviews.. the interviewer is just occupied w. his/her own questions that they prepared, and completely fail to actually listen and respond accordingly
@@mokopium9094 They are clearly under time restraints, the interview is only 5 minutes because that's likely the only time they had. If this were an in depth, 1 hour interview with Art Garfunkel things would be so much different.
Legend. There's this beautiful softness to Art's voice. 'Across America' is my favourite album of all time
One of my iconic idol in the world of pop music...I salute him....
I didnt know Paul Simon wrote all the songs.
Deep man- being responded to with such superficial questions and responses! Oh my... If they had just sat back and let him speak.... I am going to get his book.
Remember when he had all that Afro hair atop his head -- that's the AG I'll forever picture in my mind. The man had a beautiful voice. 7/2019
He still does have a beautiful voice.
Art Garfunkel, I love you since I was a teen ager! I love your voice for ever and ever!!!!! ❤
Art... thank you for the music...😘😍😊
He didn't write any of the music.
That was ABBA
+Brendan Heavin lol
@@Nautilus1972 He created music with his voice- which is sometimes better than writing it!
The guy legitimately wanted to teach you an important lesson at the beginning, by explaining why he went with that sentence. And all you can ask is "BuT wHaT abOuT YouR vOiCE?"
Such a nice old man, i love him!!
My goodness he is smooth...a poet. Incredible really.
Wonderful person, thank you for a lifetime of intense beautiful music. You are a gifted person with no end. May God Bless you and keep you for his choir in the sky.
Wow, what an inspiring, happy man. Thanks for the sharing!
THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE INTERVIEW, OF A MAN WHO KNEW HE HAD A GIFT FROM GOD AT 5 YRS OLD! HE IS A LOVELY OLD MAN. AM GETTING OLD NOW, I HOPE I GET MORE MELLOW,AND MEMORABLE TO PEOPLE IN THE YOUNGER REALMS ABOUT ME.
@PaulSimonMusic #ArtGarfunkel Singularly you are each a gift to the world and together you are beyond words ~ the lives and hearts you have touched and the memories you've planted in our minds ~ thank you
So lovely the way he’s talk ❤️😍
Hm, do Paul Simon and Roy Halee now have to give their producer grammys for BOTW back as it turned out 45 years later that everything had been produced by Art alone 🤔?
I saw S&G at Wembley Stadium in 1982 and I've seen both of them solo many times after that. They were wonderful together and wonderful apart. I play their records all the time and I'm so grateful they have both been around for so long in my life. My favourite? It has to be, hands down, 'The Dangling Conversation'. Beautifully written by Paul and beautifully arranged by Artie - and beautifully performed by them both.
He is how you would hope hed be, after listening to his music
Love both Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel ❤️
In 70s I would Art at a small park near The Grace Cathedral, SF. It was near my office and apartment. He was obviously deep in thought. Great to see him. A nod but would not invade his space. He was working on something..Was great to see now and then.
At 3:34 he describes the meaning of his book's title, but I also think it's how we feel when we hear him sing.
Loved Simon and Garfunkel, still crazy after all these years, from the start with "Parsley, Sage, etc." Profound, insightful, melodic, intelligent. What more could one want?
Nothing says, "I looked up S&G greatest hits last night" like saying "Hello darkness my old friend" as they introduced him. Whoever did that should be fired.
Paul was a very difficult person to work with since he was the creator while Art was the interpreter.
It is clear from Paul's recent biography Art let him down in a couple of critical times eg During Bridge recording Art went off to do a movie without much notice to Paul; they both gave competing bids for a flat in Manhattan in John Lennons Apartment block!! Worst of all Art kept secret his failing voice on a world tour.
Paul expected perfection and most times got it from Art, however they argued ferociously as Alpha males. Art has never really challenged Paul in their respective solo careers.
Together they were indomitable right back to Wednesday Morning 3AM, my favourite album for purity.
Paul's first album is my favourite - it has some unique, almost transcendent, quality to it. Just listen to 'Peace Like a River' or 'Duncan' and you'll see what it mean!
@@tom-ht3ju I know both songs and agree they have an elegant spirit as well Paul’s sharp social commentary in Duncan. But for me the folk songs like Bleecker Street, April come She Will, Sparrow, The sun is Burning shine as diamonds in their rich colours and tones with scintillating harmonies On Wed 3 AM... which I always thought was their first album here in Australia.
@@dennisarkapaw5122 Truthfully, i've never fully listened to their first album, heard it was by far their worst. I'll give it a go today though, cheers mate!
If you believe we are having this human experience for a reason, if we were placed here to learn something...I would say Art has learned that "something".
This man is so special! Nuff said
I love your voice art gurfunkel... done😘😍😊
One of my favourite groups! Their melodies bring so much comfort and emotions to me ❤
art Garfunkel his voice is heaven sent a blessing and people just quietly lissen
This guy is a treasure, I love him so much!!!
This is far too short.. those questions needed to allow at least an hour for rebuttal i hate when they’re so short and lacking substance like this why even pay all that money to have him on the show you can do what you did here without Art even being present
Why in the world would they interrupt him when he's actually opening up about his relationship with Paul? Jesus Christ.
Probably because modern 'journalists' have no clue, nowadays, and all basically suck. They were watching a very short clock on this interview, and it showed.
I Couldn't believe he's growing this old....seems too fast. Legend 💓
The man has the voice of an angel!
He's aging just fine, looks great.
He looks like an old tea bag come on! Who you kidding?
He's got all his marbles that's even better
However it is the 21st century, and wouldn't it be nice to take advantage of all the beautifying AIDS available at this moment In Time? Some HGH on a daily basis, a little testosterone, and some retin a skin cream would take 25 years off his looks.... Why not. Oh yes and by the way terrible interviewer!
@@douglassharpe55 why not? Because some people are comfortable in their skin and recognise the aging process as an inevitable and not somehow shameful thing.
time to shave the fuzz off
Heard he had throat problems? He also I believe was a heavy smoker.
Ok... That’s why I love him.
Paul Simon said Artie's chronic farting ended their relationship.
😅Paul and Art have created some of the most beautiful music the world will ever know.
When I think of Bridge over troubled waters I think of childhood. An innocent time spent with my record player in summertime. Sweet voices lifting me up and mesmerizing me. ❤❤❤
Sanford Greenberg’s memoir features AG so much, and depicts him as so bright & creative, I’d like to read this book.
legend. him and simon
I know Paul was the most egotistical the most madly driven and most selfish person who broke up the band..every band's lead singer always greedy for the solo flight. Art was and is the real singer
So blessed with that voice. But you know what..Paul is an helluva talent Period
Well, Art has the more distinctive voice and I wouldn't argue against him technically being the better singer - but Paul does have a fine singing voice, and I think he might get more credit for it if he hadn't been overshadowed during their partnership.
Always loved Garfunkel, i always thought he wasn't really emotionally connected with Paul simon, their singing was beautiful together but they weren't compatible
A wonderful man very talented and kind
One of my favorite voices
what an absolute genius and master of life.
Great artist. Where has time gone?
He sung the song “Bright Eyes” from the movie Watership Down!
He really did say he produced their records. Interesting. It is credited as Paul Simon, Art Garfunkel, Roy Halee, but I guess it was Art. Even though he doesn't even play instruments.
All three, Paul, Art and Roy received producer Grammys in 1971 for BOTW. He seems to have exaggerated his own contribution a little bit.
Why is there always a debate about who was better, wrote better songs? They were a duo so they talents complimented eachother.
Such stupid asinine comments.
I hate it when interviewers interrupt esp during a very interesting thought the person was gonna say.
This interview needed more time...
The voice of an angel
I love Nora!!
He still has a young voice
She keeps calling him “Garful”... and then the man refers to “Strawberry Fair” ...Why interviewers don’t do their research is beyond me.
This is how you should do an interview
m.th-cam.com/video/R6UzS8K7IxA/w-d-xo.html
He is still a "hunk". Always love him.
Art had a better voice then Paul
Garfunkel had the slight edge when it came to his voice but Paul Simon is the musical genius with his songwriting
Art had a 'prettier' voice than Paul, but Paul was equally as talented vocally, probably more so. not to mention his unbelievably adept songwriting abilities; and didn't he also play MANY instruments? i am in no way trying to take anything away from Art, because i adore his perfectly beautiful God-given voice, but neither can i put him above Paul Simon, who is an absolute musical genius.
together, their harmony was unequaled, running just ahead of say, the likes of Peter, Paul and Mary.
U hapoy telling us
He's lovely
Lovely, classy peep... wth angelic sound... did'nt know he was Jewish! WOW! LOVE HIM ALL THE MORE...have yet to meet a horrible Jewish peep..... always a TOP DRAWER nation... My mother as a Nursing Sister in CT, often spoke of great calibre they were as physicians...Dr Landau, Lesley & Sharon Trope, Alan Foreman, Dr Neurich, but also great Afrikaners too... Dr Engelbrecht (Plastic Surgeon of note) et al... Housemen (1st Year internship) were dedicated & hardworking... Drs.Caradoc-Davies (married couple) were also mentioned...
A beautiful dreamer
"Made grown men cry"!!!
These reporters keep cutting the awesome answers that are coming back.
Seria bom ver Simon.e Garfunkel juntos novamente
He is so ❤humble.And to be so natural.To say he is Jewish without hesitations.And that his voice is a gift from God.May God bless him.
How about a Part 2 CBS This Morning? A longer Part. 2.
ele era uma coisinha fofa. Mesmo agora ele não está feio.
If only everyone out there is more forgiving and stop comparing the two of them. They are just complementary duet. One sings and one writes. You need a good singer to go with good lyrics. Simple as that.
I will be singing the song Bridge Over The Trouble Water again in xfactor 2020
He's a cool cat.
I’m not familiar with CBS but what a shockingly delivered interview. She asks him about his writing then interrupts him and says it’s really his voice everyone cares about. A dumb interview on rails with a true legend.
and he said "strawberry fair". What a tool!
How has Art from that problem he had with his vocals years back? Is he hitting the range once before or is he struggling in certain areas with his voice? Just curious.
