    When I was kid growing up in a small village from South Viet Nam. I remember back then in the early 2000s, we had a 14 inch uncolored TV, the TV station stop broadcasting after 11pm, then they have like an intro for the next day's program while this song playing in the background. I didn't knowing what it was, but it sounded really nice. Fast forwad when I grow up and a friend shared me this song, all of the sudden all the childhood memory came back to me, now every time I listen to this song I got a very special feeling I don't know how to describe it, I just feel like it carved deep intro my heart and I'm gonna live with it for the rest of my life.

    I’m 75 and grew up with this song; I’ve listened to the original hundreds of times and many different covers as well. I have to say, this is the best cover of the song I have ever heard. The vocals are beautiful, the background music subdued as it should be, and the delivery is perfect. The song is performed here exactly in the spirit that it was written. Great stuff; thanks for posting.

    Her rich warm, velvet tone, and his not overplayed, higher octave…. This IS MUSIC.

    Two Australian kids born 20 years after this song was written breathing their life experience into one of the best songs ever written. The harmony was perfectly done. The backing band came in just perfectly. I have watched this video hundreds of times and every time when they roll the credits towards the end of their performance it makes me so sad that it reminds me that nothing lasts forever. This is the essence of performance as art.

    How sad that todays young people don't have music like this. How glad I am that I was born in 1950 and grew up the best music this world will ever hear. It had a message that is lacking in today's music. Electronic noise by malcontents. I miss the positive messages.

      A gentle and a sweet, innocent soul can come from any place, any background. It is the nature of the soul and it cannot really change on the inside. A soul like this may come to believe the tauntings of the circumstances in life, and of the people who created those circumstances, with only memories of the true reflection of who it (the soul) really is. The downfall begins when a beautiful soul starts to believe that it is not beautiful.”

How beautiful was this simple live rendition done in situ? I guess it just goes to show what we already know, that taste is entirely subjective. I’ll listen to this version a few times a year until I die, but I won’t be listening to the Disturbed version again any time soon.

    I never listened to music on You Tube before, but a few days ago while trying to find out who sang a particular song I enjoy, I came across the video of these two young people singing "Sounds of Silence", how humbling and relaxing it was to hear their rendition of a sound that has been around decades before they were born.
    I think the one thing that really caught my imagination and my ear was the subtle introduction of the guitar in the background. First time I've noticed an addition uch as this to the song, and for me it really works.
    So my quest for later today is to locate a disc with them singing and see if everything else is as Golden as "Sounds of Silence" .
    Absolutely beautiful and for what it's worth, they now have a new fan.

    Simon and Garfuncel sang that song beautifully. Your rendition is also beautiful because you didn’t try to alter the song to suit your ego like so many other cover artists. You paid great respect to S&G and to the song. I hope you have a great career in music.
    Beautiful.

    Wow. What a beautiful cover. Growing up as young kid in the 70's, we had the original Simon & Garfunkel version at home. I have very fond memories of my youth, singing this song with my sisters & in my school choir. I am 56 now & have not heard it in many years. Listening to this today gave me goosebumps and a incredibly warm feeling in my heart. Thank you Emma Louise & Husky Gawenda. That was an amazing performance. Please post more videos. Much love from Vancouver, B.C. Canada
