Bridge Over Troubled Water" by Simon and Garfunkel is a timeless classic that exemplifies the duo's profound ability to convey deep emotion through their music. This track is a testament to the enduring power of friendship and support, capturing the essence of standing by someone in times of need. Its universal themes and exquisite execution have cemented it as one of the most beloved and enduring songs in modern music history.
Paul Simon wrote the song, Art Garfunkle's beautiful voice soared. I love this song. So peaceful when you need some comfort. I've listened to it since I was 20. Thank you for your silence as you listened. And your beautiful reaction.
One of the most beautiful songs. When it was released in England in January 1970 it went to number 1 on the pop charts for weeks. This song won 5 Grammy awards and the album of the same name also won a Grammy. The pure beauty of the message and the voice of Art Garkunkel shine through the master work of Paul Simon, who wrote it. Even after all these years it gives me spiritual joy.
The song is a powerful expression of love, support, and the enduring strength of human connections in times of adversity. conveying a message of hope and resilience.
Beautiful reaction. I first heard it in 1970 - I felt GOD singing this to each and everyone of us. We must really learn to LOVE all of us! Thank you so much!
Took guitar lessons loooooooong time ago with a friend Lou Pearlman. His parents invited me over for dinner & told me to bring my guitar. When I got there, Lou introduced me to his cousin Art Garfunkel. I had no idea who he was. He tried out my guitar & signed an autograph for me that I still have. Lou later went on to form the Backstreet Boys and NSYNC.
Growing up with this music, we just didnt hear it once. It was in the background , playing on the radio or mixed tape, and we all heard at least once when we were feeling down. Makes quite the impression on all who listen to this song. Nice reaction. Thank you.
Definitely, check out "The Boxer" and "The Sound of Silence" from the studio albums. Also, "Cecilia", "El Condor Pasa", "Me and Julio in the School Yard", "Homeward Bound", "I Am a Rock", "Scarborough Fair/Canticle" and "Bleecker Street" for starters. These two Jewish boys from Queens, NY were one (or two) of a kind!!!
Wonderful song and so many more. Try Sounds of Silence and Homeward Bound. Once you finish all of Simon and Garfunkel, Simon did a solo album called Graceland with Ladysmith Black Mambazo that will knock you off of your feet.
I've listened to this song ever since its original release, and when Art sings 'and pain is all around' I get goosebumps all over every time, even though I test myself and try to not have that reaction 😊
So inspirational ...It reminds me of Jesus Christ right behind me..Try watching by Rod Stewart. the song..I am sailing. I'm pretty sure it will heal your soul. It is so beautiful...thanks for the reaction peace to you
I see you reacted to Disturb's Sound of Silence, Simon &Garfunkel are the original artists. You should react to them at their Concert in Central Park in 1981.
This is the second reaction I have listened to by you. I loved your reactions which are very similar to my own tothese 2 songs. If you love songs with beauty and meaning, I recommend you react to some songs by queen. If you already know their masterpiece 'Bohemian Rhapsody' there are plenty more in their catalogue to choose from.... eg Love of My Life, Save Me, Somebody to Love etc. They are all written by Queen members and Sung by Freddie Mercury their vocalist. He is said to have one of the best voices in the world... although he died back in 1991. He was also a great performer, so the live versions of the songs are good to watch.
good song , but the live version from Elvis Presley is very good . Paul Simon ---> “When I first heard Elvis perform ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water’, it was unbelievable. I thought to myself: ‘How the hell can I compete with that?'”.😎👍🎶🎶
Looks like they love to see me cry🤣🤣🤣! It’s very hard for me to shed a tear while listening to a song, but since my mum passed away, any song that reminds me her gets me really emotional.

This is one helluva beautiful song, and Art Garfunkel has the voice of an angel. 💗
