A great song is only trully acknowledged when lots of singers attempt it. I bet Paul Simon is thrilled that both Annie and Streisand thought enough of his work to interpret it.
Thank you so very much for posting this. I've been searching for this for over ten years. I heard Lennox do this on a morning news show those many years ago and she sang in this soaring soprano which blew me away. Absolutely magical and sublime. Thanks again.
Amazing vocal performance, but I think the synth-heavy arrangement takes a bit away from it. Would love to her her sign it with just an acoustic guitar accompaniment.
Alcune persone non dicono mai le parole "Ti amo" Non è il loro stile di essere così audace.........che dire una bella dedica per lei..auguriiiiiiiiii..ci sono cascata di nuovo a questi stupidi giochi..addio..
A perfect interpretation of a perfect Paul Simon song. Then again, when is Annie Lennox's voice not perfect? And when is Paul Simon's song not perfect?
No need to argue over what sounds best. This song is perfect , Thanks to Paul for that and thanks to all singers who try to make it their own. Hell I make it my own every time I sing it in the car !
There is no soul to this. None at all. Sucked it all out. As much as Paul can fit in one song, its all gone. Sorry, just being honest. I would NOT be able to listen to this everyday, as opposed to the man, Mr. Simon.
"It's apt to confuse me" - apt indeed. I sat listening to this and waiting for Paul Simon's voice to come in on the chorus, all in vain! The accompaniment is, I think, identical to the duet version. This solo version is lovely, but the two voices combined are even better. The lyric-writing skill of Paul Simon I match with that of Randy Newman.
I have listenend to this version and barbra streisand version Annie nailed it good style I was so bored with barbras I switched off half way Annie is queen
Hey, what that guy said, right on, jeez louise Annie sings this in a higher key than Barbra did in 1974, interesting that she inserts the bridge before the chorus and only sings the chorus once as opposed to three times for Paul, it leans toward being more pensive, I think
