  • Excelente duo, bella canción siempre vigente.

  • Fantastic duet. Very touching song. The band also performed their best of the very best. Thanks for sharing/posting.

  • it was play at mi friends funnel he was only 16 . was in a Comer for 10 week he was in a car cash at 110 . i wel miss him love u ben .

  • For the people comparing this version to Paul Simon's original - both renditions are absolutely magnificent. And it should be quite an honor for ANY duo to come near the likes of Simon & Garfunkel.

  • so touching and beautiful at the same time, I love both voices. Who's the man? I love his performance really. All the best!

  • ....Ahhh, this is sooo beautiful!!! After listening to this song a few times, I can't get it out of my head. My replay button is "smoking" hot, LOL

  • Better than Paul Simon

  • @bucko1948 "Better than Paul Simon" ??? NO FUCKING WAY

  • If she had 38 DD's I would be on life support.

  • She and Russell are magnificent. My hat is off to him and to be able to do a duet with Sissel. Keep up the wonderful music I can't stop listening too.

  • We have to thank our Lord for such a gifted lady. This duet is awe inspiring. I would love to see her in a live performance at the Opera House in Sydney.

  • i love her!

    

  • 2 more fantastic voices merged together to create this fabulous video. Never heard them before , but, I will play their music a lot.

  • Russell is great - I haven't heard him before either. Sissel has a wonderful voice - the two of them are magnificent!

  • he wonderful!! never heard him before,God Bless him

  • I have just found a new favorite female singer. She is fantastic. I didn't think anyone could be better then Celine, but she is (Celine still is a very close second). Will she ever come to the U.S. for a concert tour? I live in IL, but would fly to San Diego to see her.

  • Is this song on any of her albums?

  • Absolutely stunning performance of a very beautiful song!

  • shes no karen carpenter

    

  • @Markinpuff NO, 100 times better than Karen

  • Beautifull duett! :) Thank you very much :) Maria

  • This is the most beautiful I have ever heard. Awesome.

  • This is a magnifiscent performance. Sissel is extraordinary, and Russell has the type of personality, and vocals to make this duet work. Unfortunately, as great a rendition that it is, you are better to listen than watch, as each performer is avoiding the other. There should be a chemistry for this song, and that is missing.

  • Wordelfull perform!1

    Thank You both!

  • This time that guy sang Sissel (nearly )to the wall!. FRom Sisselfan to Sisselfan :-)

  • @organgoesheavy I have to agree. Even with how stunningly and unbelievably talented Sissel is, I think Russell very much held his own here. A superb duo.

    (I was a little concerned when I saw the top-rated comments while I was first watching this, talking about how people were criticizing Russell. But, when he started singing, I couldn't help but wonder how the hell people could rip into him...)

  • Wow, this duet by Sissel and Russell is growing on me...a beautiful performance!

  • Beautiful!

  • Andy Williams also did a good job on this song

  • They're pretty good but they aren't "Simon & Garfunkel!"

  • stupende entrambe le voci,,,,,dolci...ottima interpretazione

  • One of my favorite duet-song. Best performance by both artist and Orchestra. Every wording of this song's very touching. Listening to the song, makes me feel more closer to all my friends.

  • Wow beautiful.....

  • simply amazing!!

  • I agree that this is a great version. However I give top marks to the Elvis Pressley version. Check it out on Youtube. Make sure you see the live version

  • Very, Very, good!!! Amazing. Enchanting.

    nilo1944

  • In today's world, this is a necessary must have.

  • love you both great energy there!

  • both have wonderful voices and I just love the song

  • who's the dude .. he can sing

  • This is the best rendition of this great song that I have ever heard.

  • Good!

  • Dame Kiri te Kanawa, eat your heart out, Sissel has a much better voice and she is beautiful with it

  • 3:55 "LIKE" that doesnt sounds right, but VEEEEEEERY WONDERFUL VOICE DAMN..... so GOOD....the best so FAR!

  • she gives more chill on me than susan boyle... damn... shes hot....

  • 7 people wish they can have her amazing talent :):))!

  • Merci beaucoup pour votre contribution "The bridge over the troubled water"

    chantée par Sissel. Je la considère comme l'une des meilleurs chanteuses contemporaines. Son timbre est céleste, me faisant hypnotisé. J'apprécie hautement votre canal contenant de nombreuses d'autres chansons fascinantes chantées par Sissel.

  • Sissel ♥ a norwegian treasure for sure

  • flawless voice!

  • what a beautiful song! What a voice!

  • Mmm...wrap him up and send him down under! lol, rawr :3

  • stumbled across this version and never heard of this young lady but i'm in tears......

  • @shomonavoss oh my God !!!! i wasen't ready for the beautiful orchestra break!!!!

  • Fantastic, maybe even better than Simon and Garfunkel, this version is touching my heart! What a performance by the duet, Sissel and Watson, just WOW.

  • This is my favorite version of this song, by far. So beautiful!!

  • She is amazing. Truly a beautiful woman on so many levels.

  • ok

  • Great duet, one of the best that I have ever heard.

  • I can hear it again and again .. Beautiful .. She is just so beautiful and lovely :-)

  • it makes me laugh how people are criticising Russell. remember that he recovered from having operations to remove a brain tumour, more than once. The fact that he's still here singing so magnificently is something to be truly thankful for.

  • AGAIN ,THE BEST AND I LOVE IT.

  • doesn't get better than this

  • No greater love hath man than mine for Sissel

  • WOW

  • fantastic!!!

  • I've never heard Russell Watson before, don't know who he is, but WOW he is good!

  • Great rendition by both singers and by the orchestra. Pretty good camera work, too.

  • Oh, my first time listening to Sissel and her voice. O, such a beautiful voice. Must be an angel singing.

  • This is one of my favorite Simon & Garfunkle tracks, but OMG this is the best version ever, I have a lump in my throut

  • *****

  • an amazing voice 

  • Oh my ~  WHEW! goosebumps all over, with tears in my eyes !! this is both lovely, and resounding, at the same time ! THAT is enough to tell me these two teamed up for a world class performance! it just doesnt get any better than this ~

  • 4 persons see dislike as " dis I like"

  • This was lovely - so much better for the bilge that often passes for musical talent here in the USA...

  • All you so-called experts kill me. This is an outstanding performance from both people.

  • @sportster16301

    I so agree! He did a great job, I don't know why everyone seems to hate his performance..!

    His voice is very smooth and he sings amazing.

  • Andrea Bocelli & Sissel, What a Comination that would be!.

  • I would like to buy this concert dvd, please let me where can i get it. thank you!

  • i love her voice...so comfortable listen it..

  • I LIKE THIS SONG VERY MUCH.

    PLEASE CHECK MY VERSION.

    THANKS.

  • Sissel stole it.☺♥

  • This guy Was Blown - ouT.☺

    

  • @TheGruntHarmonic: True. He doesn't belong on that stage with Sissel. I can't think of a male singer or current tenor good enough to perform with her.

  • @wiseroldfart Andrea Bocelli.☺

  • @TheGruntHarmonic: Placido performed with her when she was young. He was definitely worthy. Bocelli is OK, but not a great tenor. If you want greatness that matches Sissel's, they're all gone. Jussi Bjorling was the last great tenor, not Pavarotti. Listen to his "O Holy Night.'

    Caruso might not have been a good match for Sissel due to his complexity, but he blew a lot of minds in his day. His tinny 1904 recordings of 'Una Furtiva Lagrima' and 'E Lucevan le Stelle' display how great he was.

  • does anyone know if Sissel will ever be coming to the United States to sing?

  • This performance just completely blew my mind.

  • pure joy

  • Excellent performance,...one of the best duet , great orchestra and overall very beautiful video. Wow !!! all I can say and thanks for sharing/posting.

  • @sisselfan ----super !!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Someone simply pressed the wrong button.

  • best version of this song by anyone cept s & g but might be even better

  • best version of this song

  • @sisselfan

    THANK YOU for uploading all the vids the Sissel and THANKS for writing out the tour dates!!! I will certainly do my very best to get to see her in concert, cause she is simply amazing!! One of my favourite singers of all time! :)

  • I was fortunate enough to get tickets for myself and my mom to go see Sissel in Bodø in December, I can't wait!

  • Someone needs to convince this young lady to come to the USA. Absolutely beautiful lady and vocal talent combined.

  • @YoungAtHeart1941 she is actually in the USA very often doing performances different places;-) She has performed with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir at a christmas show and I even think it was broadcasted in the USA....maybe you can get on DVD? And you´re right, she is both very beautiful and a very talented lady;-)

  • She has had a few concerts in USA. I believe she had some in Minnesota and San Fransisco.

  • elvis started from church singing,

    quite a number of good singer do,

    including sissel

  • accidentily found this remarkable lady and was very impressed. great duo empressive great going you tube

  • excellent post...ooooooo

  • there is one deaf fellow here.........

  • fallen into love oh sissel! What a magnificent voice

  • Art knuser henne!

  • I'd rather have Sissel do this one solo. The other guy keeps ruining it.

  • @Kurisuteru87 Sissel is not a guy..

  • @anderssredna My Norwegian friend, "guy" is an interchangeable term for people in a group, occasionally including both men and women.

  • @anderssredna Oh really? I did not know.............pffffffffffff­ff

    Now, would you be so kind to point out exactly where I am saying she is a guy?

  • Sensational the very best rendition I have ever heard. Thank you

  • Magnificient perfomance.Bravoo

  • He has a beautiful voice too.

  • To someone very special. 

  • Bravo!Bravo!

  • she should have done this duet with josh groban.

  • Beautiful lady and matching voice. Video is excellent love to see more. Thank you for sharing.

  • Russell Watson doesn't impress me. Not at all. He sings poorly. Being next to Sissel just emphasises this.

  • dynomite

  • I am very touched by Russel Watson's voice, his voice breaths and speak story. Sissel sings well but just well.

  • @shalalac3 youve got to be kidding.he tries to eat the mike and hasnt got the power in his voice to match sissel. but to his credit his voice is clear and has a feel to it almost rare in modern pop. try elvis version then se how powerful it should sound.

  • @tomuchmonkeybiznez actually he's lazy. he moves the mike close and then pulls it far away to modulate to volume instead of doing it on his own, and he does it many times thorughout the song. compare with sissel where the mike is always at the same distance from her mouth. you see a lot of bad singers doing it also.

  • One person missed the like button...

  • Whew! What a good performance.Thanks for sharing.

  • why wasn't this included in the DVD: Sissel in concert All Good Things? it was supposed to be there, right?

  • who is the guy singing with her?

  • Comment removed

  • SHE should be with a better singer... She sing quite well, but his singing it's all aired and full of throat noices...

  • dang... this is like the 5th time she forgot the words...

    beautiful voice though.. i love this performance...

  • Oh my god!!!!!!..... just perfect!!

  • What a privilege to listen to two wonderful singers. Would love to hear them live.

  • Thanks for posting this video.

  • Wow. Now I'm a Sisselfan too. I so admire her version of "She Walks in Beauty". What an angelic voice for an angelic face.

  • Sissel's English pronunciation is perfect (says a USA person); maybe she studied the language from childhood.

  • WOW!!!!!!!! I'M LOST FOR WORDS.

  • Beautiful..incredibly wonderful voice. she's extremely beautiful as well

  • SisselFan Forever: Sissel in not much better than anybody. SHE IS THE BEST, and I love her

  • ooooooooooooooooooooh myyyyyyyy wooooorrdd unbelivable

  • Oh Lord, the most perfect voice!! I will spend all weekend looking for as much of Sissel as I can find. She is so underrated, what a shame so many with less natural tallent are so praised.

  • Sissel`s voice is much better than many internationally known sopranos and other big names. Her voice is perfect for classical music and songs like this.

  • @SisselFanForever

    not only much better than the rest...i think is the best! =) cheers pal

  • @SisselFanForever agree

    

  • she has an INCREDIBLE wonderful voice....

  • Oh man oh man,one of my fav songs ever and Sissel sings it,truely amazing.Beautiful just beautiful.

  • Great performance of both of them. Altough I must say that Sissel is not at the peak of her capabilities that evening. Her voice sounds somehow "flat". Her performance at Drammen theatre is way better: Anyway, enthralling!

  • Whats the point of getting all dressed up to look so beautiful, and then be barefoot? It looks terrible. If women are going to spend thousands of dollars on an outfit why wouldnt they ware stockings? Dont they realize barefoot makes everything else look bad. It's not like she's on the beach.

  • It's awesome.

  • Check at 3.09--She is not barefoot.

  • so nice...Sissel is good..but Russell is magnificent...and together..brilliant !!

  • This is amazing what a combination and what a great voices Bravo

  • this is one of my favorite classics! what a beautiful rendition ..

  • I love her voice!

  • Paul & Artie could have never imagined this song song being sung in this new century by two as talented as Russell & Sissel ~ BRAVO twice!

    Curt Erler

  • It's all so heavenly! What a gift these two wonderful singers have given us!

  • Was that Russell Watson??

    Really??.......

    And with divine Sissel?......un be liev able!!!

    If so, wake me up, please!!

    Absolutely amazing, ha!

    `-*M...

  • Brava! Its amazing! encore!

  • I still wonder why she put me so long to propose marriage ...

    I would say YES right away! ;o))

  • wonderfull just wonderfull no more ti to say welll if fantastic is better well i say just fantastic.

  • Fantastic duet between two fantastic singers. Sissels voice is becoming better and better with her aging.

  • Oh goodness, her voice is mesmerizing.. Truly.

  • Grace.

    Beauty.

    Femininity.

    Talent...

    Unquestionably,

    "Sissel" if a single word suffices to describe all ...

    ;o))

  • Hi Sisselfan,

    I had another source of the same vide, which has a few preliminary comments by both Sissel and Russell. I think thes provide an interesting addition to the video. I think your sound and image quality is better though!

  • I love the duets, and Sissel was fantastic in this one, brilliant, with the surprisint performance of Russel Watson!

  • Actually only Simon sang and not Garfunkel on this debut in 1969 so it was not a duet

  • Russell has had two major health problems that began between then and now. He has had brain surgery in recent years to remove cancer. I believe he is in remission now. I do hope so.

    May he come back as strongly as Jose Carreras did from his leukaemia.

  • i am so deligthed with this rendition. It was indeed an awesome one! These voices are gifts from the Almighty. More power to both of you!

  • Ma che voce possiede questa ragazza, fantastica! Ottima interpretazione, in duo, della nota canzone di Paul Simon!

  • Excelente interpretação de uma das canções mais lindas de Paul & Karfunkel..

    Parabéns!!!

  • I noticed you stated this proves it can be sung as a duet. The original in 1970 was Simon and Garfunkel as a duet. It was a chart topper at the time.

    Sissel continues to be one of my top favorite singers. She doesn't let you down

  • This is the best rendition I ever heard!! I couldn't believe they didn't include this in the DVD :-((

  • My god!!!! Gorgeous!

    I bought the DVD of this concert but this song wasn't included! Thanks for uploading!

  • Det var mycket bra!!

  • Very nice, I love this song. Thanks for posting

  • Great video quality. Not sure what was up with Rusell in this performance, he's normally got such a powerful voice and seems to have been (outwardly at least) having to work hard at this - one can see Sissel being the attentive one doing the work to ensure a blended duet (tightlipped smile at 4:56). Perhaps he had not had as much rehearsal time as they might have liked. Now don't get me wrong, a great duet still, but left with feeling could have really raised hairs on the back of my neck :-)

  • *Putenpelle* xD

  • Excellent Picture and Sound Quality - if only all Video,s were this Good. Great Duet !!

    Thanks !!
