"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 BELOWThere'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?(I apologize for eventual language errors since English isn't my first language. Feel free to correct me if anything is written incorrectly)

Simon's voice is okay, but why is he doing those stupid arm movements??? He is making a mockery of his own song. It looks to me like it is his own little protest - HEY! I AM THE GENIUS... why let Garfunkel be remembered for singing my songs. And why not, we all have a dummy spit moments. In closing - Garfunkel should sing this song and Simon can sing all the others and be remembered as my favorite singer / songwriter. Yes that's right. He is the best. He just should leave this classic to Art.

Saw them at their only ever Vancouver show. It was festival seating at BC Place and beer was being sold on the floor. Prior to the concert people had to stay a certain distance from the stage. At a certain point just before the show began the security people politely told us we could now approach the stage. There was no rushing or pushing, everyone calmly moved toward the stage and eventually the concert began. I was right at the front of the stage, fantastic show. 45,000? in attendance.

What a strange performance by Paul Simon. He sounds kind of demented. He's trying too hard to stylize it. He's not in the same league as Garfunkle as a singer, so it seems like he's overcompensating with weird phrasing and vocal tics. But it's so beautifully written all you have to do is sing it.
