Simon and Garf. Use to own this LP as a child. Nice re-make.
Love this song
Mumford and Sons is example one of the many bands inflienced by Simon and Ganfunkel. These men are lengends and thier music is still loved by many and by Mumford and Sons.
Are they saying "lie lie lie lie lie lie..." ????
I love mumford and sons my favorite song is i will wait
Classics never die
This song both haunts and inspires me. It speaks of a broken man, and the struggle he leads. It shows us, in a cynical way, how we should not be. All the songs by this band are fantastic, teaching and inspiring me in new ways, not to mention they sound great!
Don't read this because it actually works. U will get missed on Friday. If u don't post this comment to at least 3 songs u will die in 2 days. Put this on 5 songs in at lead 143 minutes. When done press f6 and ur lovers name will appear on the screen in big letters.
really weak.
I luv their songs

Oh! I should read the lyrics next time it plays. MWHAHAHAHAAA A A A ! ! ! ... /)O.O(\ OH MY GOSH WHILE MY GUITAR GENTLY WEEPS IS PLAYING!!!! *screams happily*

wrong lyrics... I'M SURPRISED NOBODY SAW THAT

I really enjoy this version and I don't compare it to the original. Marcus Mumford approaches this song with a reverence (I can hear it) and Gerry Douglas's dobro playing is, of course, superb.
Hard to beat the original....
ashpoole6
I like this version sooo much better than the original.

I love this song! But I wish Pandora also played the original. :/
ladedaxo
hm, good version, mumford is great. but you just can't beat the original

They put so much heart into this song, I love it.
Don’t read this because it actually works. You will get kissed on the nearest possible Friday by the love of your life. Tomorrow will be the best day of your life. However if you do not post this comment to at least 3 songs you will die in 2 days. Now you’ve started reading this so don’t stop. this is so scary put this on at least 5 songs in at least 143 minutes when if done press f6 and your lovers name will appear on the screen in big letters this is scary because it actually works.
AAAAAAHHHHHH H H H H H H H H H H H H H H H H H H H H H H H ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

Sorry for that. But flaming for Paul Simon is worth it. There's probably a better way of telling them, but this is more fun.
Paul Simon Art Garfunkel .

Every song they sing hits you in the heart. Best band ever!!!
One of the best takes of the Simon & Garfunkel original. Their new album Babel is really great.
Simon and Garfunkel sang this song, right?
omac97
I love Mumford and Sons. They are real music not what others listen to!(:
shelru
Please fix the songwriting credit. Let's give the writers their due. Lyrics are the poetry of music and artists would be nowhere without them.

Hey Pandora, better credit Simon & Garfunkel as the songwriters, not Mumford and Sons.
