This is Paul's favourite SG song! I managed to get very close for this one! Taken with an Olympus 770. A fantastic night and end to a great tour. (This was my fifth S&G concert and their penultimate ever full concert!

because this song is about him .... TOM = Art G when they toured as TOM & JERRY. This is about Art's departure for the shooting of the Catch 22 movie

How lucky you got to see them. I never had the chance though I had 12 tickets for the 2012 tour that never was, I still have the tickets. I don't think their best friends forever lasted very long, at their age, they ought to put all that crap behind them.

I like this video, though the sound feels rather heavy. Could you try to even it out a bit?

I wish I had heard of that tour. I really got back into listening to them in 2008. I can't believe I bought $5,000 worth of tickets for last years supposed tour but I thought they might never come my way again. And there was no tour.

I don't usually like live perfomances because they sometimes lack the soul or perfection of the original studio recording, but this was TERRIFIC!! Besides the minor imperfections of this live performance, Paul still managed to do his "magnum opus" JUSTICE!! And the harmonies...Ahh...there's no other word to describe them other than "ANGELIC!!" They've still got it!! |Tom & Jerry| |Art & Paul| |Simon and Garfunkel| Three different ways to describe the Gods of Harmony. Absolutely EXQUISITE!!!

An amazing performance! I agree with "BigJohnWoody" about the hook "half of the time we're gone".....only I'd say it's better than any top 40 clip in the past few DECADES! And does anyone on the planet have a more angelic voice than Art Garfunkel? Doubtful!

This is by far my favorite song of all time. No one could do a better version than Simon & Garfunkel, even at nearly 70 years these old friends have still got it. I was supposed to see them in Quebec this summer until the tour was "indefinitely postponed." Here's hoping to another great tour in the coming years.

As a gardener by trade, indeed I get all the news I need on the weather report. "Weather and authorities permitting..." - The Firesign Theater I would think Paul Simon's favourite song would be his own "American Tune" as a soloist...as the construction and mood are a bit similar. Love the organ breakaway in this one, like the studio version from BOTW

@arpionatore Paul wrote it about Art. So is it a love song?? I guess that's open to interpretation...

@Luccabrozzo If it weren't for Art, the song would never have been written in the first place, since the song was inspired by Art's trip to Mexico when he was filming "Catch-22". Who cares anyway, it's a great song.
