  • And God said, "let there be 2-part harmony". And there was Simon and Garfunkel!!

  • Paul Simon's voice is pretty good but Art Garfunkel's is simply angelic. Amazing singer!!!

  • waiting

  • Comment removed

  • Sublime harmonising :) <3

  • One of my favorite videos on Youtube.

  • What a wonderful song and what wonderful voices as if from heavenly peace

  • Art Garfunkel ... so effortless his lithe tenor that he can sing with his arms crossed and trip over those notes light as air. Beautiful. *sigh*

  • Song sounds better toasted...

  • thank you so much sharing :)

  • so timeless that the future generations still remember it...

  • outstanding:)

  • 45 people have never been to scarborough fair

  • Hay quá

  • i got shivers watching and listening to them...wow.

  • Paul is so sexy and Art looks like an old (but very nice) angel. ♥

    And this music will be allways in my mind.

  • The Hungarian post-punk band Trottel did a great version of this song. It had female vocals and kick-ass guitars but the melody was the same as this and every other interpretation of it over the past 400 years.

  • i think this song sounds better when sung by a female, the soft tones of this song is much more suited to a female's vocal chords despite the fact that the original song was intended to be addressed by a male to his beloved girl

  • when was this filmed

  • It seems like they are perfectly in harmony and they know it and feel it. I love watching two people enjoying each other's melody. love them a lot!!!!!

  • "Parsley, Sage, Rosemary, and Lawry's Seasoning Salt"

  • i live in scarborough haha :)

  • Art Garfunkel did an amazing cover of this on Saturday Night Live, accompanied by a single cello. Wish it was on You Tube.

  • I wiii not listen to a caterated virsion of this song

  • Must have been difficult for Paul Simon to be the composer of such songs while Art Garfunkel sang them with an angelsl voice

  • Their concert was so damn awesome.. I couldn't quit crying.. God Blessed these two men with a wonderful talent.. I'm so glad they did another tour!!  Thanks to my Brother in law Mike and my Sister Lynda... :) xoxoxoxoxoxoxo <3

  • when was that=?

  • Two top rated comments are about the censorship, yet I hear the music perfectly. Might the shirts have seen the error in their ways (or gotten sacked for not making enough money)?

  • wow

    guitar is good!

    play it by my self xD

  • This is a unislamic song!

  • A work of musical genius.

    Thank you Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel for your contributions to the American popular song catalog.

    Fantastic!

  • @BigLongJohnny007

    you do know this song dates back to the 17th century, right?

  • @BigLongJohnny007 you know that Scarborough fair is an English folk song right? it isn't new at all and its sure as hell isn't American.

  • @BigLongJohnny007 Did you know Scarborough Fair is also a fair in Texas by the Waco area and has been around for over 25 years? Its such a beautiful place and I wish I could go every year.

  • @BigLongJohnny007 Simon and Garfunkel did do a great job remaking it though, so i completely agree with you're opinion of the song's genius and pleasantness.

  • They didn't do the counter melody (as on the original studio release). I wonder why. That would have been truly awe inspiring if they had. They aimed for traditional harmony. Was the counter melody too difficult to pull off live? (Where was that haunting line about "polishing a gun..."?

  • this is awsome, but when the aliens comes and start saying they are god and will concer the world it gets a little too much for me... but besides that, nice song :)

  • this is awsome, but when the aliens comes and start saying they are god and will concer the world it gets a little too much for me...

  • Art and Simon were in their prime here. They look and sound great.

  • genius

  • in a word, magical

  • I simply love this canticle. I am learning to play on guitar....am almost halfway...

    ;)

  • Sara Brightman and all you Celtic woman take note this how the song is supposed to be sung.

  • Beautyful. :)

  • thanx Brain cool vid m8

  • This is a 500 year old English Ballard what an amazing sound

  • ..I have to be honest....like so many before me....I wish this for a true love. but mine is an incredible Austrian girl. I think her name is Tina. (wish her nothing but Luv ) happiness n hope,my lovely one....lol,thats it.

  • sheer beauty

  • So beautiful and pure

  • takes me back to seeing this late onenight as a kid,You know hangin round with your friends,and seein this for 1st time wow happy times thay were wish i was back there.

  • @HELLO2YOU3 Wow, does this concert take me back. I attented this concert in central park on september 19, 1981 in front of 500000 people. What a show. Was far away from the stage but with my naked eye i could tell paul from art. They were loud and excellent. hard to believe in 16 days it will be 29 years since. went with one freind. tried to get two others to go and they stayed home. Boy do they regret that.

    they missed a part of music history.

  • This version is a wonder!!! The sweet combination of voices are so tender and kind.

    Thanks S&G for your beautiful life through the years!!!!!!!!!!

  • fantastiiiiiiisk.....looove

  • ¡¡¡SIMON & GARFUNKEL!!! ¡¡¡CLÁSICOS INTEMPORALES!!!

  • BEUTIFUL!!!!!

    

  • no, im not going to scarborough fair

  • @cemernater Don't you have something better to do, then to copy paste the same comment under different versions of this Song? quite ridiculous

  • @PaganAsatru no, no i dont

  • This is a wonderful performance. Such a beautiful song.

  • Just stunning

  • the MOST beautiful version ever heard..

  • YAY THERE'S AUDIO THIS TIME. DIE YOUTUBE DIE! GO MUTE JUSTIN BIEBER'S VIDEOS ISNTEAD

  • sound is back....thanks!

  • Pretty, love this

  • WMG, YOU ARE BASTARDS. SCREW YOU, YOUR CHILDREN, AND YOUR PARENTS.

  • since when has music been about making money, screw WMG

  • just re-upload the video please

  • FUCK CENSORSHIP~

  • WMG can go fuck itself

  • GESTAPO !!!  this is shame , MONEY POWER MONEY POWER

  • "This video contains an audio track that has not been authorized by WMG. The audio has been disabled." my ass! Video is no good here

  • Wenn die WGM noch mehr Lieder versaut dann glaub ich fange ich an explosive (Wortspiel) Gedanken zu entwickeln

  • DER TOD ZU ALLEN ALLIED SCHWINE

  • they want more money,even more than the billions they already earn,find out who is signed to wmg and dont buy there music.wankers.

  • @fuzzmeister13 where can I find this information?

  • @dahoss65 i read it in a newspaper,apparently theres a big gulf between what wmg want and what youtube r willing to give,until its resolved this is what will happen.

  • WMG YOU NAZI FUCKS

  • This video contains an audio track that has not been authorized by WMG. The audio has been disabled. More about copyright

    do Simon and Garfunkel know that their record company refuses to allow the next generation of civilisation to hear their music?

  • Thanks for re-typing what was already written.... you know, just in case no one noticed O_o

  • an allem schuld ist wer.

    B-Tight der neger

  • Warum? So ein S*****.

    Die haben aber auch nichts anderes zu tun.

  • WMG, GO FUCK YOURSELF

  • WMG is now officially the name written in my s*itstained pants you useless c*nts

  • Lick skunk balls WMG !!!

  • I've bought a lot of your Companies music over the years, never again you piece of shit diaper stain!!!

  • fuckin WMG!!!!

  • gay WMG

  • Die with pain soon WMG.

  • GOD, please destroy WMG!!!

  • Nothing sounds better like "The Sound of Silence". (weeps silently)

  • 本物ですね。聞いてみたいです。

  • aaaaaaaaaaaargh!

  • looks like the quality would have been perfect and all,

  • WMG should be baned -.-

  • Let's see... poor video & audio quality video clip has sound disabled so copyright owners don't lose any money from lost sales. Now think for a moment in a different way, copyright owners: Let people have access to poor quality promo video clips like this one to remind them of the wonderful talents of artists like Simon & Garfunkel. Gee, that may get folks to BUY an excellent quality video DVD & or CD from a link to Amazon (hint - hint). Sadly, Corporatism think is an empty box, isn't it? fools

  • I thought copyright on music was only to prevent resale? I.e. you could record this song off the TV, and watch it on a video/DVD recorder to your heart's content, so long as you didn't sell it. You can't download it off YouTube (without using other software - which YouTube is not liable for), so you can't resell it. No money is changing hands. So what's the problem?

  • Thanks, WMG.

    I'd love to take a gun to their executives, I really would.

    What? Don't look at me like that. Not exactly as though they'd be missed.

    Note to feds: no, I'm not actually going to do it. Because I know someone will take it seriously. *sigh*

  • So WMG changed this song to a "sound of silence". Another hit, so whats the big deal?

  • this is a English old song!! IT BELONGS TO EVERYONE!!

  • This has nothing to do with Youtube, this was a direct order from the ungrateful artists to their "fans"

  • Weak, I have purchased this song on itunes and own the cd. I now have to pay for the video? WMG, Paul and Art can go fuck themselves. They have our money, but it's not our fault Madoff took theirs. Karma's a bitch, ain't it douchebags?

  • @whitefish1234 Nothing to do with Paul and Art, when they signed the record deal, they probably signed away the copyright too.

  • why?????????????????

  • malditos los de youtube que no dejan escuchar la canción pu chica como si tuviera algo malo la letra todavía que fuera Marilin Manson que el si es diabólico

  • this is bullshit - thanks

  • you wonder why they`ve stopped this audio track, Do you think when they signed their corporate contracts. did they envisage the internet, did they forsee youtube,,,,,,,,,,,,, why dont you fight

  • WHAT THE FUCK!

  • So we are able to feel the music and the message it brings us but we are made deaf, Do you ask why?

  • hang on this was a free concert how can you turn around and say that its copyright

  • YOUTUBE!!! THAT ACTION SUCKS!!!!

  • what's happening too you youtube...

  • Hey Youtube...: go an'fuck a duck !!

  • DONT MAKE ME RAGE

  • Anybody ever hear of the Dave Matthews Band? They encouraged their fans to record everything they did. I bet the poor bastards are broke now. ..NOT. Fuck you, WMG corporate assholes. I bet I don't buy a damn thing with your name on it because you are pricks!

  • Fuck all copyright laws!

  • DICKS!!!

  • greatr song

  • What a fucking joke,what next ,are you gonna sue amateur bands if they perform it live?It's not even their song for fucks sake,its a traditional english folk song,has it ever crossed anydody's mind that it's free advertising!Greedy set of corporate cunts,makes you want to pirate copt songs if anything!

  • WMG....What a load of wankers.

  • is this Scarborough fair or the the fucking sound of of silence after i killed WMG. lol

  • The question is who gains most from this specific and strident application of copyright laws, the artists or the corporation? The practice of sharing music existed for centuries before this corporate chauvinism. it's the richness and diversity of music and musical thought that is strangled and in the end we are all worse off.

  • Are you serious? It's not like you can't find this song on 30 other videos on Youtube

  • sucks. not the song, the NO AUDIO part

  • you should be mad at WMG music group not youtube

  • PUT THE SOUND BACK ON!!!!!

  • hhmmm..... i think i need to reinstall my soundcard driver.... @___@

  • this is the sound...of silence

  • lol

  • @fakeplastctreefingrs youre not fucking idea

  • @emocentrico sorry to break it to you dumbass, but it was my idea and i wrote it 10 months ago, but it doesn't even make sense anymore cause they got the sound back. nice grammar by the way. sorry i angered you so much

  • @fakeplastctreefingrs this is scarborough fair

  • @sukes58 i know, i just said that when this video had no audio track. it was a joke but now that it has audio it just doesn't make sense

  • @fakeplastctreefingrs are you making a reference.. or actually saying it's the sound of silence.

  • @criticalcaleb + everyone else, this video used to not have an audio track due to legal complications, so thats why i said that comment earlier. now it just doesn't make sense. haha

  • @fakeplastctreefingrs i remember that. and used to be a funny joke once youtube took the sound of, so it was like 'the sound of silence'. but good thing they put the audio back now.

  • I agree

  • what use is a music video with no sound stupid

  • "I just want to thank the police department...the fire department...and especially a group of people who don't get recognized for doing good things for the city..."

  • Also this was a FREE CONCERT IN CENTRAL PARK!!!!

  • Wow what's the point of this. I own many copies of this, DVDs of the live shows, original LPs, CDs, etc. They really are not encouraging anyone to go buy anything instead people do not get to experience this and findout if they are inspired by it. Reminds me of the movie version of Kurt Vonnegut's short story, called "Harrison Bergeron", where kids in the future discover a copy of a jazz musician (Dexter Gordon!!) that was banned and they are inspired by the music...

  • ver y oir van juntos cuando oir no quiere entonces ver si viene y es cuando echas a volar tu imaginacion y ahi esta lo bello una intencion muy buena gracias

  • WMG is a stupid company. This is how a whole new generation learns about this music. This is the new RADIO HELLO! It's FREE advertisment to people that would not otherwise even know about this music. And guess what? They go to iTunes and BUY a copy for their music library so they can listen on the road and have the tune play in a song list in their room and so-forth. Whatever, they just don't get it.

  • Well I'll find out who WMG are, and I'll make those motherf@ckers pay.

  • WMG and the others : YOUR BATTLE IS LOST 4U

    Free WEB wins

  • WMG = greedy zionists

  • you are a racist bastard

  • shut up patetic jew

  • Shame on you!

  • Asswipes - delete audio for what? Gets you nice and cozy with the other asshats that were sueing everyone a while back?

  • DICKS

  • who are you to keep people from enjoying music that has been played for years and years are you so selfish and money grubbing hungry to ruien others enjoyment for a buck ? thats sick and its not right I hope you choke on the few bucks you extort out of peop[le who really enjoy the music which you obviously do not because if you did you would want to share it with others FREELY it people like you that are distroying the world MONEY GRUBBERS SUCK

  • Please delete such a video without sound track. You are wasting my time.

  • Removal of audio: what a waste of time and effort.If only people put as much effort into issues that really matter,The world could, and maybe be a better place,shows a weakness which is a worry.The fat cats just keep getting fatter once again... weak

  • U cut an old s&g audio because you are desperate? Fuck off, now I know I will never give you a penny.

  • For my part, I don't buy any music any more : famous singers have enough money !

  • ey fuck youtube

  • blottobee77back i agree. Youtube is going down in a spiral to the ground. It is pathetic that an organization would take this away from us because of their own greed and paperwork. The last video i watch on this filthy site.

  • i am looking for art garfunkel s bridge over troubled water video version in central park new york in 1969.

  • lol haha
