Simon & Garfunkel - Bridge Over Troubled Water
"Bridge Over Troubled Water" performed by Simon & Garfunkel in December 2003 in Madison Square Garden, New York during the "Old friends: Live On Stage" tour.
-----------------------------------------
MY OPINION IN THE PAUL SIMON-DEBATE BELOW
There's a lot of arguing going on about whether Paul Simon did or didn't "ruin" the song in this clip. I say, Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel make an excellent duo. They started out as a duo, succeeded as a duo and will be remembered as the great duo they are.
Obviously, there are two part of this duo, both contributing to this (and many other) masterpiece(s) in their own way. Sure, Paul tried to do something different with the song this time, which some may find irritating, but without him this song wouldn't even exist, and neither would this duo.
Whether Paul ruined this song or not is a matter of opinion. I think of it like this; his way of performing this song this time is his way to interpret it, and after all, since he wrote the song, he knows it better than anyone else. Art did a wonderful job singing this, both in studio, in this clip, and every other time he has sung it, and he sure deserves cred for that as well as Paul deserves cred for writing it and, principally, creating the magic behind it.
But after all; why complain? Even if you dislike the way Paul sings the song this time, I think you would find it very hard to honestly say that the song is ruined, or anywhere near that.
So; why waste your time on complaining when you might as well accept this version and enjoy it?

Simon & Garfunkel - Old Friends
From my personal favorite concert in Central Park, Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel singing Old Friends. The vocals are just amazing.
Someone requested the lyrics, so here they are:
OLD FRIENDS LYRICS:
Old friends,
Old friends
Sat on their park bench
Like bookends.
A newspaper blown though the grass
Falls on the round toes
Of the high shoes
Of the old friends.
Old friends,
Winter companions,
The old men
Lost in their overcoats,
Waiting for the sunset.
The sounds of the city,
Sifting through trees,
Settle like dust
On the shoulders
Of the old friends.
Can you imagine us
Years from today,
Sharing a park bench quietly?
How terribly strange
To be seventy.
Old friends,
Memory brushes the same years
Silently sharing the same fears
BOOKENDS LYRICS:
Time it was and what a time it was it was,
A time of innocence a time of confidences.
Long ago it must be, I have a photograph
Preserve your memories, theyre all thats left you
59TH STREET BRIDGE SONG (FEELIN' GROOVY) LYRICS:
Slow down, you move too fast.
You got to make the morning last.
Just kicking down the cobble stones.
Looking for fun and feelin' groovy.
Ba da, Ba da, Ba da, Ba da...Feelin' Groovy.
Hello lamp-post,
What cha knowin'?
I've come to watch your flowers growin'.
Ain't cha got no rhymes for me?
Doot-in' doo-doo,
Feelin' groovy.
I've got no deeds to do,
No promises to keep.
I'm dappled and drowsy and ready to sleep.
Let the morning time drop all its petals on me.
Life, I love you,
All is groovy.
