This talented daddy-daughter duo warmed the hearts of the world with their rendition of ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water.’
This iconic song was released in 1969 by the popular duo Simon & Garfunkel. Over the years, many artists have lent their voices to this tune with notable performances from Elvis Presley, Aretha Franklin and Andrea Bocelli.
There is no doubt that this song has truly stood the test of time. It’s combination of difficult notes and poignant lyrics make it a one powerful number to perform.
“When you’re weary, feeling small
When tears are in your eyes,
I’ll dry them all (all)
I’m on your side, oh, when times get rough
And friends just can’t be found
Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down”
Father-daughter pair Mat and Savanna made headlines earlier this year when their performance of ‘The Prayer’ went viral. Now, they’re back with another classic cover and it might be even better than their first.
After Savanna first heard this iconic song, she knew that this should be their next cover. She wrote about the inspiration behind the performance on YouTube. “My mom has always reminded me that “We rise by lifting others.”
We are entirely free to support and celebrate our fellow men on this life journey; to encourage, lead, learn from, and love. Be a bridge over someone’s troubled water, and you’ll soon find that that by doing so, your cup was filled, too.”
