Bridge Over Troubled Water
The creaking, melodic sound of Simon and Garfunkel against the base voice of Johnny Cash. He reactivates the melancholy of this song totally different.

Comments about Bridge Over Troubled Water:
WILLIE NELSONS VERSION? Get Real! I never really like S&G thought Paul Simon was amazing solo but Art Garfunkel just bugs me. I like Cashs version. There are also numerous live performances of Simon without Garfunkel I prefer

Who the hell is that lady singing with Johny Cash? She cannot sing at all.

"..definitly not one of S&G's better songs.." are you fucking kidding me?

S&G's version is better, it is flying like a butterfly in the room but the cover is to heavy and drags the melody down, not even as powerful it has to be to lift it. But this is definitly not one of S&G's better songs. And not nearly one of Cash's either.

Great version. I prefer it to S&G because of the state of mind and physical health that Johnny Cash was in when he recorded this song; he lends it so much more authenticity and a sort of stark, unproduced truth. Fiona's background harmony is absolutely breathtaking. The efficacy of this track is outstanding.

The Cash version is great. It seems that every song on this album was written for him and he sings each one from his heart. But S & G just edge him on this one. It's close.

I prefer the Willie Nelson version of "Bridge over Troubled Waters"
