Simon and Garfunkel - El Condor Pasa (If I Could) (Live At Acer Arena, Sydney, 2009)

[crispy5000]

They were awesome - somehow, I don't know how, I managed to get seats right in the very front row, right in the middle.

It was a magic night..

[nostalgiclady86]

Peru lindo para siempre!!!!

[legionv111]

"El cóndor pasa" debe su autoría al gran compositor peruano DANIEL ALOMÍA ROBLES, y forma parte del Patrimonio Cultural Peruano. NO es de Los Indios Tabajaras ni de Simon & Garfunkel. Ellos son grandes artistas, pero meros intérpretes de la obra de D. Alomía Robles. y yo que los tenia en alto ah simon & garfunkel, se me cayeron. 2º HIMNO NACIONAL DEL PERÚ.. NETAMENTE ORIGEN PERUANO QUIEN AS PODRIA CONOCER BASTAMENTE EL SUSPIRO INCAICO..

[riorebio]

El condor pasa es sin duda de origen peruana; simon and garfunkel la hicieron famosa y por lo tanto se llenaron los bolsillos: mientras del compositor peruano que la compuso nadie o pocos saben de el. En el juicio por derechos de autor ganaron el proceso judicial S&G y no le dieron ni mierda a los familares del compositor peruano. que bella historia del condor pasa.

[losmonoxidos]

@riorebio bueno el oro tambien era peruano, jajjajaja

I'd rather be a sparrow than a snail. Yes I would. If I could, I surely would. I'd rather be a hammer than a nail. Yes I would. If I only could, I surely would. CHORUS Away, I'd rather sail away Like a swan that's here and gone A man gets tied up to the ground, he gives the earth its saddest sound, its saddest sound. I'd rather be a forest than a street. Yes I would. If I only could, I surely would. I'd rather feel the earth beneath my feet, Yes I would. If I only could, I surely would.

Tambien Simon and Garfunkel sacaron el tema "Duncan" basado en motivos incaicos

[bigjack940]

Thanks for this posting.

[camionero111999]

si no la hubieran tocado simon and garfunkel la cancion no hubiera pasado del entorno local punto,algo parecido a oye como va hecha famosa por carlos santana.

[DrLeonardBonesMcCoy]

I wish I could off went

[ErnoNFE]

First comment ^^. This song is just...perfect!!!!

[eltigre503]

gracias amigo por estas cancion tan bonita.....que en los 80 las disfrutabamos mucho es una cancion maravillosa

[stromssa]

I saw the "Old Friends" tour in 2003; this performance brings back memories of that day for me. I'm glad they did it again in 2009; Art sounds in great voice here, so hopefully he can get over his vocal problems and they can resume the tour in 2011!

[rorydelonge]

oh, and its still a great song

[rorydelonge]

lol. i love seeing all the comments where ppl are saying how they ruined this song. its hilarious how they call Simon and Garfunkel "Robers".....if you're going to insult someone using text format atleast spell it right :L:L

Technically tho they didnt steal the song. When Paul Simon heard it, the group that he heard singing the original version said that they could sing it and that it was their song. It was more a misunderstanding than blatant copyright....

[simonMANwithNOname]

what a tune

[kalichin44]

ROBERS, ROBERS, ROBERS

[camionero111999]

@kalichin44 dales las gracias por haber echo famosa la cancion a nivel mundial ,no es lo mismo simon and garfunkel que juanito el de la esquina.ah y comprate un diccionario.

[18647800]

GRACIAS A ESTE DUO EL MEJOR DE TODOS LOS TIEMPOS EL CONFOR PASA RECORRIO EL MUNDO

[TengoNoNombre]

wow they really screw up the original song from Perú, the lyrics make no sense. This song is Peruvian and the original lyrics have a real meaning specially when it is played by our native Americans. They raped this song.

[oasis777]

@TengoNoNombre

u s*ck

[david510152025303540]

What a song writer.

[waijda096]

Super song:))

¡Por Fin! Melodia y Letra ORIGINAL en AVIRUKA!

[NationalAnthem100]

That was really a nice performance.. Like it so much !!

[MaryCaritaUcharico]

maravillosa maravillosa mi condor pasa...

[dogwomble]

666Alester, just because a song is 40 years old, doesn't make it a bad song. There's a lot of stuff I like that's actually pushing it. Music does not follow the same upgrade cycle as your computer :)

[666Alester]

A song from 1970?? Ok, then it is 40 years old??? Yes, i like the music for a while, but not for 40 yrs!! Is american music industry so poor, or can't the rest of the world get through?

[AndersFjogh]

I'd rather be a hippie, than make sense...Yes I would...If I could...and...wear a hood

I'd rather kill a hippie, than a deer...yes I would...And I should...with a piece of wood

(- Or how about: With my foot, wearing wood)

(- That don't even make sense, man...)

(- Just shut the f...shut up and go with it...and stop hogging the ether! Right, here we go)

I'd rather be a plunger, than a head......

(- wait, no I wouldn't...or would I?...)

(- this is hard)

[lilian3360]

love it

[Ezdduf4kuZ]

Interesting song from 1970, made famous by Simon & Garfungle. Thankyou for sharing this updated live version, it's just too bad the auduo isn't the best. lol

[peruano2001]

En 1913, Alomía Robles compuso "El cóndor pasa" para una zarzuela que se estrenó en el Teatro Mazzi, ubicado en la plaza Italia, en Lima.

[2242871]

¿Estupenda interpretaciòn?,la mùsica es diferente al original y las letras de Simon son simplemente un adefesio.HORROROSAS.

[quintusraygalius]

estupenda interpretacion , sin duda de un maestro como paul simon y mejor aun el tema que es peruano, arriba el peru carajo

[skycastles79]

Que bella interpretacion. Magica, sin duda.

[szewei85]

awesome...wish i can attend the concert...i was at melbourne that day not sydney unfortunately hahaha

[zizubea]

VIVA EL PERU CARAJO

[alexw1981w]

can anyone tell me what instrument makes that oriental noise during the intro? sounds like a hybrid of a banjo and something

[Heatherbird3]

could be a charanga

[Fabio9x]

it's a charango

[Fenix717]

Hi, that sound is not oriental it's an andean mountains sounds it was played with "charango"(strings) and flutes but with "zampoñas" sound better the song is called "el condor pasa" is a traditional song from Peru you can search it in youtube. S&G made an excellent and unforgettable cover.

[yvorfalcon]

@alexw1981w its called charango or quirquincho and yes looks like a small banjo

[gamster68]

Tone your language Sean fuckface.
