I have a confession to make: I get seriously pissed off when ANYONE other than Art Garfunkel and Paul Simon sing this song.
No one can sing it better than Art Garfunkel, with Paul Simon being the only exception.
I am a huge fan of 'Simon and Garfunkel' (Paul Simon is THE BEST songwriter ever, in my humble opinion) and 'Bridge over troubled water' is a favourite of mine. While a lot of their song's are beautiful with a lot of meaning, this song, somehow, takes their 'amazing-ness' up a notch.
I love the 'unreleased' version, too. It's a bonus track of the 'Bridge' album, and features alternate lyric's for the 'added' third verse. Both version's are both as equally brilliant as each other.
