simon and garfunkel on good morning america

[GBeret83]

For those who make it to the "Pearly Gates", these guys will be there singing to welcome us all in!! Heavenly!!

[broadworld]

Does anyone know what year they were on GMA?

[bLackmarketRadio]

No one can ever improve on a Simon & Garfunkel song. EVER.

[bLackmarketRadio]

If you love Simon & Garfunkel, (who could hate this?) check out the band Kings Of Convenience. They're another two man harmonizing group, whom i consider the closest thing anyone will ever come to sounding as amazing as S & G. Check out their version of A-Ha's song Manhattan Skyline, and you'll see what i mean.

[breastlady]

Wow! That audience looked actually reverent and like they barely took a breath until the song was over.

I'm so mad I missed the Old Friends tour. Couldn't afford it. But I did get to see Paul Simon the next year.

[GBeret83]

If 2-part harmony ever got any better than Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel? I sure as hell never heard it.

[pinnopin]

Love this. Beautiful.

[rocksinger45]

Art's voice and Paul's lyrics send cills up my spine.

[Democrat64]

Together they made music that, in my mind, helped facilitated the changing of our nation. A change, by the way, that was not only necessary, but good. The beauty of their music makes one sad to reflect on where music once was, and where it currently is, today. The ACTUAL artistry of making music, even performing music, is somehow lost on today's expression of, so called, musical talent.

[GBeret83]

This song sounds like what should playing when one hit's the "Pearly Gates."

[marvy1118]

Man I hate host-bots.

[mauriciobeltre]

Wow.....breathtaking.

[NYCBG]

I knew that Paul was using a capo!

[rockshow45]

even after so many years their voices never changed a bit

[Glume001]

Gar's voice is so sweet

[GBeret83]

And God said "let there be harmony" and there was Simon and Garfunkel doing Scarborough Fair.

[GBeret83]

This song, never before or since has two-part harmony been done or sound as perfect as it does with Scarborough Fair. It seems like what would be playing and be heard by human beings when the angels come for them.

[GluteusMaximised]

Emotional and heartbreaking...a beautiful reminder of wonderful years lost in the mists of time and past!

[marvy1118]

The "Home Alone" burglars make a new life impersonating S & G.

[DangerDan2]

haha yes

[DookNun]

that's the greatest comment on youtube.

[SantaBarbaraDianne]

Simon and Garfunkel are true musical geniuses

[irelephant]

This is very beautiful, Simon's take on a traditional English folk song. I think his best lyric ever was on "Dangling Conversation." Nobody has ever done more evocative vocal harmonies than these two.

[irelephant]

"For Emily, Wherever I May Find Her" is also one of the most beautiful songs ever written by Simon [or anyone]. It's one of their songs where Art carries the vocal as a solo, along with an exceptional 12-string guitar accompaniment by Paul.

[DesultoryDevelopment]

The entire Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme album was exquisite. Their harmonies were wonderful, Paul wrote some of the most moving lyrics, and the ending with the song 7 o'clock News / Silent Night leaves you with the chills.

[Hwdyshel21]

the simplicity allows us 2 hear the true Art they share w/ us.

[roma11giu]

what year was?

[rocksinger45]

The soundtrack to my life.

[tinakover]

Oh, Artie. Still the voice of an angel.

[mozmuse]

I love him too.  :)

[arrendadorarrendatar]

Gracias desde Sevilla. Fan absoluto de S&G

[mozmuse]

My heart beats faster when I hear Art singing here...

Beautiful. Transcends...

Wow.

[mozmuse]

Where was I? In the living room, watching Dustin Hoffman's anguished face in the genius Mike Nichols film "The Graduate".

It was about two months ago. :)

[WhereEaglesDare22]

If you make people think they're thinking, they'll love you; But if you really make them think, they'll hate you

[mrsgrovine]

I was a 10th grader in 1968."I Am a Rock, I Am an Island" was the first 33 1/3 record I ever bought, with "Hazy Shade of Winter" on the back side. They sounded like two sophisticated college kids. By 1970, I was really hooked,bought all their albums,duo&solo. Went into Christian music exclusively by 1979, and only this year,

2008, have I re-connected with S&G;now as an older person,realize just how good they really were. Talent does what it can, genius does what it must! (Plus hard work!)

[LashBridges]

With all the mindless comments on this page (albeit this whole site), I can't believe nobody has answered the question: where were you when you first heard Scarborough Fair? 1968, I was just starting to learn the guitar because my sister's piano was too big to carry around. Sitting in a meadow under a huge oak contemplating a future treehouse. Heard this song over a little transistor radio. Life was so much simpler all those years ago.

[deohgesdad]

I was daddys little squirt in 1970... think i heard it first watching it with my dad in the NY central park and it really moved me

[zodom1]

The generations to come I believe will be listening to S&G. I'm 21, so there ya go. : )

[sirons02]

Amazing no wonder they were crying if they were that close

[Nikaa23]

talent its as simple as that

[chrispdx]

What's amazing about this video to me is them panning over the faces of the few people that they let in for the audience (2:06). They are stunned, awed, and just completely seriously focused by the fact that S&G are just a few feet away performing. Some of the women are crying at the end.

[chrispdx]

Wow. Thank you for loading this.

[Gnagleif]

Beautiful!

[kinkonrul]

are you going to scarborough fair? parsley,sage,rosemary and thyme..

[broadworld]

I'm so grateful my parents played their album all the time. My generation of teens now should hear their music. That's far better than the mainstream hip hop and rap we get today.

[chunnyman]

i couldn't agree more!!

[broadworld]

thanks.

[spazticbert88]

omg i totally agree. love them!

[broadworld]

lol, thanks. yeah, they're definately legends

[wildpianoman16]

Here here! I'm a music major in college and I lap up every bit of their music I can here. They first inspired me to write songs of my own. Definitely one of a kind.

[mtdceecee]

@broadworld Thank you! you are one of the few teens now who would say that

[mtdceecee]

@mtdceecee if your still a teen

[broadworld]

@mtdceecee Thanks. I'm 21 now, but I still think people in my age-range should listen to timeless musicians like Simon and Garfunkel - when music had harmony and meaning. Decades before us when music was written because of historical events and changes.

[laurak90]

wish i'd seen this.

[melissamajors]

"Bridge over troubled water" is one of my all time favs. I love S&G!! After all these years, they still do it for me...GO BOYS!!

[Spinewood]

Simon and Garfunkel is the best 4EVER! I wish i could see a concert in my life!

[fossdaboos]

Simon and Garfunkel ARE Americana at her finest!!!!

[ANYWHOS09]

another fine performance!

[blaj3]

after so long, garfunkel still has the voice of an angel

[Pjaypt]

god! I allmost fell like crying!

[niradler22]

Simon & Garfunkel are soo good ... they are the best there ever was is and will be

[ANGKOLARING]

thanks for sharing... i love this duo

[wyganter]

Needs more cowbell.

[spiffyacey]

Art's voice really has deteriorated over the years - Lovely to hear Paul's voice sounding the same lovely tone as it always did :)

[santaclararambis]

are you hearing the same thing that I am?  Art Gunfunkel's voice is still awesome!

[spiffyacey]

It's become very breathy - Its definitely not the same as it was, but I do still love it (:

[santaclararambis]

fair enough. at least he didn't lose it the way Brian Wilson did, now that's really losing your voice. I still love Brian Wilson, but he can't hit the high notes any more, which is a shame.

[shroudedinmystery]

I know, that really is a shame. Well, lets just hold onto Simon and Garfunkel, eh? (:

[santaclararambis]

it's a deal!

[spiffyacey]

Haha, woo!

[spazticbert88]

who cares, give the guy a break, he's like 60 years old

[spiffyacey]

I wasn't being mean, I still love his voice, I'm just making a simple observation.

[progjunky]

they need more simon in the mix

[burjazz]

Time, time, time!They need more time.

[eisfree]

DANKE from Berlin

[Joshua12345]

I think they really have run their course now, each note and harmony now has to be considered rather than just there, but, still leaves all wannabees far far behind.

[ISB]

superb

[ugotme69]

fantasticly difficult to play on the guitar.. Paul Simon kicks ass!!!

[spazticbert88]

wow they still sound amazing. thanks!

[saito125]

Fabulously sweet.

[honestview]

good duet. It's subtely did draw te crowd.

[lonalore]

2003. September 15.

[icblue21]

when was this?

[chunnyman]

during their "old friends" tour 03/04

[cwgalloway]

@icblue21 I think it was roughly Monday September 15th 2003. Just a guess...

[kannyart]

shout up Sean. Art is always the best.

[SeanSpamMuldoon]

Art's hair kicks ass!

[kalliahohoho]

you don't like his rug ?

[ArtGarfunkelfan1]

ya!

[rorolilred]

Wow, that almsot made me cry (that's saying a lot for me, lol) =)

[TSRule]

They should do another album now that they're older. Stuff like 'Citizen of the Planet' would be great.

[cyanworks1]

simon and garfunkel's sweet together bad seprate.

[Dutchie2]

Still going strong!!!

[vanditas]

very nice.

[Werner00]
