First time viewing Edie and Paul together - pure fun!
My grandmother is Laura Webb she was in the bobettes this sounds so great! I love this
That’s so cool for sharing
I've always thought Edie sounds like she's smiling when she's singing and you can see it's true here. Absolutely wonderful singer and songwriter she is.
I like this observation, it made me smile too. She has a special voice. 🙂🙏🏻
You know the ol saying, what I am is what I am.
I don't think we've seen Edie performing in awhile, she's as charismatic as ever and of course Paul Simon is one of best singer/songwriters of all time. I really enjoyed this!
I see zero charisma here.
Really good. Paul Simon really hit the jackpot with Edie.
Wrong, there's no luck involved, this is the definition of hypergamy. A man of high status, has his choice of women.
@@jasonraymond7907 Well, aren't we the high priest of semantics? Okay, I'll agree with you, to an extent. My overarching point is that I think she's quite the babe. Even you'll have to agree she's a bit above his head. Some guys have all the luck. Oops, sorry.
@@user-rq1dm3ny3s Yes, I agree, she is very attractive for 58 year old woman. And I believe we agree that she would never be married to Paul Simon the short 82 year old "warehouse worker" only Paul Simon the "music legend" who is worth more than 200 million. There are very few high status men but a lot of attractive women, she hit the "Jackpot" figuratively and literally.
Ha ha!
Yeah but she would also not be married to him If he was a rich manager or whatever. They're obviously share a passion for things like music and enjoy each other's company @@jasonraymond7907
Love Paul..makes me smile to see him playing with his wife. Thats beautiful.
My dad wanted this played at his funeral. Yes, he was a Mr. Lee. My sisters and I sat on the first pew and just giggled. Such a fun song.
Her voice still sounds so beautiful, maybe better than from decades ago. Their home sing alongs must be tons of fun.
It was quite a few years ago now but I was the house sound engineer at a venue where Edie played a very rare show. Band was AAA, and everyone just super relaxed and nice. Just an all around classy and easy going bunch of folks.
After all these years, she still sounds great and beautiful as ever.
The world is lighter because of your gift Paul. Thank you for your words and melody.
Please forgive my ignorance: I've just discovered they're married. And once discovered I pictured them in my mind living a life of music and singing together, then searched for a video together and... was not disappointed. Gosh, they're wonderful and Edie's voice is heavenly. Love them.
Same with me. I’ve been a fan of both of them separately!
I'm so happy they are still married, I've been listening to them both for a million years❤️
I like them both, but I never thought Edie was that good a singer. I grew up listening to Paul - a tremendously talented man.
Cutest couple in the history of music... LOL
I picture Edie wildly riding Paul
I'm very happy for the two of them! I wish them every happiness. Edie Brickell is absolutely adorable-- the picture of sweet and creative femininity.
Good to see Paul Simon , looking healthy and happy 😊. One of the most talented song writers of our time!
THE most.
@@bertram2505 It's not a competition.
I've been completely madly in love with Edie since I was like 14. First time Ive ever heard her and Paul play. This is great.
His voice is still impeccable.
...I'm so old that I REMEMBER that song...Mr Lee was the principle of the school that the Bobbettes attended...
The principal would have smacked you with his yardstick for misspelling his title.
...yeah...I f**ked up royally...
@@straycatttt2766No, because, remember, "The principal is your _pal."_
I just LOVE this!
Lovely! Great to hear Edie Brickell! And with Paul Simon is super fun.
What a breath of fresh air. Seeing people happy in love and makin music together. Most Awesome
in....love?
Married since 1992!
THIS is my new standard of a Happy Marriage 😍🎸🎙💖
I am amazed this even happened. Paul Simon announced his last album in 2016, and the end of his touring in 2018. Here it is in 2021 and although he is retired he did this one song with his wife Edie Brickell. True love at its finest. Like this short one song.
And he’s put out an album since then.
@@rabbitfishtv Nothing like the previous albums but true. He played all the instruments, did the songs himself, and it is only 7 songs. "Seven Psalms" it is called. David Bowie did something similar right before he died. I hope this is not the same for Paul Simon.
New respect for Paul Simon....the guy has landed an amazing woman
They've been married thirty years now! Look at the song above again - doesn't she just adore him? It's like looking at JJ Cale and Christine Lakeland singing together. In both those cases it is almost frightening how deeply women love!
he was arrested for beating the shit out of her lol
All true, now let's hear someone complain about the age difference.@@RO8s
@@candelise- Way to be positive! 👍🏼✌🏼
@@deaterk Yes, I know. However, considering the nature of our wonderfully 'enlightened' times these days, I cannot help but be curious to see how many negative comments on other people's happiness would occur.
I can’t express in words how happy this makes me
Love Paul Simon - one of the greatest song-writers of all time 💗
Lulu Simon (their daughter) is also a singer with a great voice!
The most wonderful couple. The look like they're still in love and enjoy the joy of music.
I was in love with Edie back in the early 90's and are falling again.
2 Guitars, 2 great vocals, perfect harmony, what more can one ask for! :)
A cup.
She brings smiles to the songs!
You two should make an album together. I truly enjoy seeing and hearing you both preform together. Pure Talent from both of you.
They make it look so easy. Love Paul & Edie. My favorite album of Paul’s is Graceland. Brilliant!
Love your music Edie, also absolutely love Paul💙
Such a classic beautiful pairing of talents and loves. So happy for the happy that runs in your world. And sharing it with us.
As an owner of a similar Collings SoCo guitar as Ms Brickell, let me congratulate her on a fine choice of instrument. As for Paul, what can I possibly add that hasn't already been said? He has his own chapter of the American songbook.
This is charming in so many ways. Not the least is Edie's guitar playing! I must watch it twice a day.
Love this. Great cover. When I was a young child, I had this song on an 8-track of 50s hits that I would listen to over and over.
It's a crime there's no duet album yet!!!
it's a crime she has to run ads
@@shaystern2453 I doubt that's her call, I think youtube adds them.
If that's a sample, I'm good without it.
Edie looks great!
That was soooooo cool! What you are is what you are man . . . . . AWESOME!
Absolutely beautiful. I have new old crush on Edie.
You and Paul could cover classic songs like like all day long and I'll be listening.
I can’t love this song and performance any more!! Thank you both so much!!
Edie i love your voice. i'am your admirer in Brazil. Thank You about your beautifull songs, especially with Paul Simon.
She is so WARM I wish he'd smile back at her more during this. Adorable. And leaves us wanting more!!
I think she radiates life and energizes Paul.
Wholesome overload!
Paul can be a difficult character I hear. Genius can be that way. But her purity seems a complement to his taciturn side? Perhaps. They’re both astounding.
Love you Edie...you too Paul😀
Jerry Cappuccino right on Jerry Cappuccino. We live you Edie. BTW JC, you came before LD!
Waiting for a few albums from Edie Brickell...Edie Brickell and the New Grass Revival & Orchestra, Edie Brickell and Steve Martin - song of happiness, Edie Brickell - singing songs by Paul Simon (however she wants to sing them). Just love her joy, her voice, her resonance, her quirk, her delivery.;..magnificent musician.
new bohemians?
Edie Brickell always stays young and her voice is still the same. Please Edie sing "Good times" again. A childhood song.
Iconic performers going live and only getting 5k views! Disgraceful!
I would listen to Simon and Brickellfunkel all day! 😂👏👍🤗
Super cool - since you're stuck in Quarantine let's have some more "Simon & Brickell"!
Two of the most prolific songsters of my lifetime for sure....❤❤❤❤
How so sweet. Music of the 50's, 60's and 70's will endure forever.
I just love this. It’s all joy and beauty and a gentle spirit that is an overflow of their gentle hearts. Two amazing talented musicians that paint such a vivid story in our mind.
How many of you see a picture of “Mr. Lee” in your mind’s eye?
Is favorite alltim fave song. So sweet to see you duet it!
Such talented performers - so good to see you playing together.
Love it ‼️ more please❤️🤗
Dang, Edie's still looking good.
...and still sounds good, too! 😊
I love this with all my heart!!!!!!❤️
Thank you so much for this joyful performance of one of my favorite 50's records. You brought the same spirit of fun to the song that made The Bobbettes' version a classic.
Omigosh, Paul and Edie are soooo cuuuuutteee!! Love this and love them!! 😍😍 Remember this song from the Stand By Me soundtrack 😊
Strange, up until this very moment, I never realized how freaking beautiful Art Garfunkel is...
No they divorced long time ago
My goodness! Thank you for sharing. This is truly wonderful and touched my soul right when I needed it. Thank you kindly.
She sings perfectly...
Edie shooting rubber bands at the stars. What a joy hearing your heavenly voice again. You may be standing next to an American wonder, but you’re the angel under Paul’s wings. Lucky guy!
Thanks for sharing, Edie!
OMG At Last You Two Made This Song Sooo Fine !!@@@
thank you. Do More Please!
This made my week. I love Edie’s and Paul’s music. I also believe that True Love transcends… 😃👍.
It all started with those oldies that inspired generations of musicians ❤You guys are timeless!
I love this 🥰, thank you for posting ❤
That's a beautiful thing!
They are so adorable
Delightful!
Amazing voice from Edie!! Still beautiful to hear! Thanks! Mr. Simon needs no introduction, he just is.....
Fantastic!
Edie is amazing.
What this is much fun doing as it was for us to watch? Paul’s interview on Howard Stern last month was absolutely amazing. Cheers!
AKA “Mr. Ree” in Tokyo . These two make nice music together. Bless’m.
Edie is awesome
Thank you Edie for choosing this brilliant mind as your husband!
You're a match made in Heaven.
Love you both so much.
Paul is my alltime hero!

Just a lovely performance - and as the last person said, Edie smiles with her voice.
I saw Edie twice in the late 80s , eswick and tower in Philly, and saw Paul's 85graceland. This sounds fun.
Super sweet!!!
Love it!
Love it! What a great musical pairing!
amazing on many levels
As a matter of fact I need a lot more of this.
Edie sounds amazing
So fun! I got into playing and writing music because of Paul Simon. Thanks a thousand times over!
That was so enjoyable!
So good you two. ❤️🤙
So joyful :)
Great 👏👏💕
The Stand By Me soundtrack, featuring "Mr. Lee," is one of the very first albums I remember hearing. Along with Thriller and The Beatles Red Album, it's where my lifelong love of music began.
What a huge fing treat! Relaxing after Christmas shopping and this little present just fell in to my lap!!! Thank you guys! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
She's so CUTE! Perfect, guys
What a joy. It's a mystery to me why I haven't heard this gem before. As my emotions stirred, I listened mistily.
I've always loved this song. Great cover.
This is so amazing, how could I have missed this when it came out! I'm sure it helped many thru quarantine! I'm glad I found it now, thank you for posting!
