Garfunkel refused to sing "Bridge over Troubled Water" with Simon in the room. They had a very competitive relationship. However, their voices together were amazing, and Garfunkel on "Bridge" created one of the great vocals of this or any other time.

@Fukfacewillie Someone told me that Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel had a massive fallout (I can't remember what it was about) and that was why one refused to sing with the other in the room.

@HairbrushDiva Their first split was in the 1950s when they were Tom & Jerry. Right up to 2010 they had occasioanal reunions followed by bitter altercations.
Both have had successful careers and accomplishments. They just couldn't get along.

@LamontCranston They used to be called Tom & Jerry? Which one mocked the other first for that? Lol :)

@HairbrushDiva when it comes to history, Ma'am, call on me.
the record company owner asked Paul to record a song alone and Artie felt betrayed. They were estranged for more than a decade that time.

@LamontCranston In that case it was neither Paul's fault nor Artie's, it was the record company owner to blame.

@HairbrushDiva Paul agreed without discussing it with Art.

@LamontCranston So it was mainly the record company owner, and Paul as well. They should both have let Artie have his say.

@HairbrushDiva Later on Paul was jealous when Art took time off to make the film, "Carnal Knowledge". There was "always something"
