Simon & Garfunkel - The 59th Street Bridge Song (Audio)

Hang on to that! You were blessed!🎉

this song drives my wife crazy every time I play it

This song was one of many that the counselors would play at my summer camp before lights out
Its one of my favorites from that time in my life

Woke up with this song in my head and I feel like it was an affirmation

Я просто читал комикс и увидел как человек паук поет эту песню

Beautiful song bklyn coney island m

nothing like a good bit of strophic form!
just keeping it simple.

Loved the 70’s! They were groovy! 😜👍🤣

Paul Simon has always been insufferable.

Always beautiful music

I remember this as a child in the early 70s . It seems like those day were much happier. This song makes me feel happy😊

Lovely song bless 🥰👍

can't get a little can't enough

Do I miss NYC in the 60s !

I'm 75 & remember 1968-1970, such an innocent time it was!

Great life song

i always preferred harpers bizarre version of this.

I love the guitar, but the drum beat at the beginning breaks it.

Our Mom, of ten, taught us this song and had us perform at Church shows! We'd sing it at Weddings! So lovely!!

I entered a school talent show based on this song and i won.... the others only danced to the song while i played piano and sung. My prize was bowling for 6 people. It was amazing.

I come to watch your flowers growing Feeling Groovy

The original version of this song was called “Feelin’ gooey” not groovy and was a song about sharting. Garfunkel was kind of grossed out by that so it was changed to feelin’ groovy. By the way who’s sharting and feelin’ gooey in 2024?

Although the wording is dated (when did the word "groovy" stop being groovy?), songs like this, Billy Joel's Vienna, and Joni Mitchell's Chelsea Morning all convey a similar wisdom: to take the time to slow down and appreciate what's around you while you still can. To find pleasure and a sense of wonder at even the simplest things whether you're young or old, to enjoy a day or even just a morning without rushing through it, that's something so many of us forget.

Im 15 and on a road trip. This is just such a fun song

❤ recovering from two open heart surgeries, right now this sounds like the best song I’ve ever heard!

Amazing what simple and perfect feel good song this is
Bravo

Feeling groovy and something's happening at the zoo ... Worth hearing regardless of what's going on!!

Thank you Paul Simon for making this song ❤✌🏼

my dad sang this to me every night when I was little. I know it by heart.

Some songs were just made to last. 😊❤

My Norwegian American grandparent’s church was on 59th street in bay ridge Brooklyn. It has great memories!

Ace

This song is awesome 👏 😊

Life when it’s exquisitely good embodied in a song ✨

I heard this song for the first time in first grade back in 2004. Came to my mind today, 20 years later. Never heard it between those years

Freshman year 77 Sang the song a lot 🙄 miss Norrick music class😂😂😂

Leon Russell's prints are all over it

If you corgis eat too fast, with apologies,

Slow down, you eat too fast
Got to make your kibble last
Chowing down on dog food
Looking for more, still feeling hungry
Bow wow wow bow wow bow wow
Bow wow wow-wow-wow…”

Hello hydrant, what'cha knowing
I've got to pee, to keep the flowers growin'
Ain't you got no treats for me?
Doo-ait-n-doo-doo, feeling zoomie,
Ba da-da da-da da-da, feeling happy…

I got white sheep to herd, and kitty friends to chase
I'm short legged and wide eyed and ready to face
All the pleasures and presents that fall upon me
Mom, I love you, all is groovy

legend has it once you come out of the closet this song plays.

My dad drilled this song into me when I was a kid. Brings tears to my eyes. Nevertheless, whenever someone's in a big hurry I always start singing the beginning parts of the song "slow down you move too fast. You got to make the moment last....." 🤭

As much as I respect the song, it makes me laugh quite a bit

listening in 2024 and still felling groovy

Good song, of course, but it could have been great if they actually finished it. Not unlike too many White Album Beatles songs, it feels half-baked.

This is music for the soul❤

im so high right now and this is awesome love and thanks unkown friend
