Janet/Robby,
Outstanding job on one of the all time great songs.
Amazing vocal, Robby. I like the harmonies and the mix sounds great, too.
Janet, your piano playing is just fantastic...
Excellent.

Janet - this is really nice piano work. I wish I could play 1/2 as good as you!
Robby - your vocals are great as usual. I loved the harmonies!

When the piano starts, it's like wow! Then that sweet voice comes in and they complement each other so much. I would've slowly faded in that orchestration, it seems to start abruptly. I like how it becomes a complete orchestrated ensemble at the end, especially those crashes. Good team!

Thanks Ed, Gary, Reece and Dena! You guys are great. Reece, I wish I could play this live. And play 4 times better than I do now. Well, actually, maybe I could play it live if I'd practice it for a month. Just too many other things to do.

I was wondering what that was that I heard with the vocals in some places. It must have been a nip slip.  Anyways very nice cover you two.

Hi Janet/Robby. Super fantastic. The piano performance is just a pleasure to listen to Janet and you added some very nice embellishments in there. Robby this tune fits your voice like a glove and the delivery is perfect.

One of my all-time favorite tunes. Tough to follow Simon and Garfunkel - but you two did this song really well - I like this.

Thanks very much for the kind words for Janet and I everyone. I hope each of you has a wonderful Christmas season filled with fond memories because "that" is what it's all about. Take pictures, remember the stories to tell in the years to come. My son and I had a great weekend :-) He's only 8, so it's the special times "right now." He's starting to get better at riding his bike, not quite there yet, but this weekend showed marked improvements. A lot of great memories just this weekend. And I'll have him for Christmas, so we're going to have a good time.
Thanks again, and Merry Christmas to everyone.

Bruce...a nip slip?
Thanks, Rhyno. I just listened to the youtube version (over and over and over again) and added his embellishments. It was a shock to realize, after several decades, that he added SO much more than is in the sheet music! lol It was a bit more challenging than I thought it would be...but so much prettier. :)
Mark: mine too. And now that I've tried it, I agree it's a tough one. :) Thanks!
Thank you, John.
Thank you, Bob and Merry Christmas to you too!
Thanks Larry. I figured Robby could deliver on this one. I would have been happy with keys and vocals but I really like everything else he added too.
Have a great Christmas everyone!

" Bruce...a nip slip?" I think it's an implication that the vocals were edited? They were not. Or maybe it was a reference to a wardrobe malfunction? But I don't know how that could come through the mic?

Thanks so much, Lynn, Mark, Mark, & Frank.
Minor third? That's a grace note so it's barely there. (it's on the sheet music) Maybe he doesn't play it at all. I can see how that would bug you if you're not used to hearing it. Sorry!

"With ease!!??" LOL! Art Garfunkle "HAD NO BALLS!" Owning a proper set myself? I can "guarantee you..." THERE WAS NO EASE! LOL! Thanks :-D And "MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!" My stuff for my son came in time for the big day. He's getting a Harry Potter wand (Lucius Malfoy walking cane/wand), A pair of tickets to MONSTER JAM at the GA dome!! (Monster truck show next month for he and I.) And I may get him some other nick nax tomorrow. A Rambo knife? Yeah... I'm thinking a Rambo knife...

incredible playing from Janet and equally impressive singing Robby. you really turned the sentimentality scale up to 11 but why not at this time of year, and with such a classic song?
