The 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin' Groovy) - Simon and Garfunkel

Описание: Well, this wasn't easy to record. I had two sessions. In general, this song is simple but some parts in my arrangement and singing are really inconsistent for me (and I have played that tune for several months already) Especially that falceto at the end. I am not a pro singer (for now) and It takes some luck to make every note right. But also I want to sing and play with feel and it is very tricky while recording yourself. You think about too much stuff to get in the right mood.

Talking about arrangement itself, I tried to make each variation sound different and dynamic. In original tune Paul plays the same pattern throughout the song and I just wanted to add something fresh at every turn. I think I achieved that goal.

I know that Paul don't like this song. It sounds too optimistic for him, maybe. But I enjoy that short and simple tune. It has good guitar parts and nice melody. Just slow down and have a moment last. Good message.
