Probably the best folk music duo of all time

Their harmony was unbelievably perfect. Absolutely incredible! I miss that.

Not tragic, just gifted and strong willed.

I flew in from Germany to Los Angeles to attend a concert of S&G's 2003 "Old Friends" reunion tour. I will NEVER forget this night singing along my musical heroes for more than three decades with tears in my eyes.
-
Since 70's with the sound of silence, I got addicted to S&G and still today I love to hear them !!!
-
The very best harmonious grassroots folk duo ever, so many brilliant artists in all genres seem tormented lost souls in real life . Fame and money rarely equal happiness . Their music is iconic and cultural , it always takes me back to places and people from the early 70's when they were part of everyones record collection.
-
Whether they ever get together or not, their music will live forever, and their names will be intertwined for all eternity
-
They had the exquisite harmony usually only found in siblings, and they were, and remain, the sound of my generation.💗
-
Their music will never have an expiry date.
-
I grew up in this century, and man, I love Simon and Garfunkel. There music is timeless.
-
They were the "sound" of an era. Simon shouldn't feel guilt in his old age - they both gave their all really and they don't owe the world anything more. We should let them gracefully back off and let us keep their wonderful legacy.
-
The sound of silence is prophetic. We are almost there now.
-
The title is misleading. I'm sorry, tragically misleading.
-
And the live version of Kathy’s Song. Superb! I was at the Concert in Central Park in 1981 and it was something I’ll never forget.
