Kodachrome

"Kodachrome" by Paul Simon, covered by Reina del Cid and Toni Lindgren

Okay, I will admit it looks a tiny bit like we're standing in front of a green screen of the Minneapolis skyline, but trust me when I say that we really were standing there, as weird as it turned out in the camera. I think it was the morning lighting against a cloudy background sky. (more...)

Oh, and about three quarters of the way through the song, Toni shouts her harmonies at me to get me to join her in singing and it makes me laugh, and it's downhill from there. Decided to not do another take because perfection is no fun. :)

My wife and I saw Simon and Garfunkle in concert long before these two artists were born : ) Wonderful performance, made me smile.

I lost my jam buddy a few years ago. Seeing you 2 play is a light I needed. Thank you

[tellthemborissentyou]

I keep coming back to this. It is simply joyful.

"Everything looks worse in black and white" brought me up short — I thought it was "better" — but it turns out Paul Simon said "I can't remember which way I originally wrote it – 'better' or 'worse' – but I always change it...." Great rendition, ladies!

Most of the time musicians sing way different than they talk, but both of you sing the same way you talk which actually makes both unique and frankly very pleasing to watch and listen to everyday. Your covers are off the chain and your originals can stand up to anyone. Art really should never be criticized and only enjoyed and I do. Love both your vocals and guitars, keep up the great work, would love to see a live performance some day……Queen and Toni ❤keep it going, thanks

Two wonderful and talented young ladies performing an immortal evergreen

[ganabutis]

The legendary Paul Simon’s music and lyrics, Reina’s incomparable voice, Toni’s virtuosic playing and an outdoor setting is an unbeatable combination.

The fact that you two are having fun makes this the most beautiful thing ever. Nothing more awesome than musicians simply enjoying making music!

[JackKirbyFan]

Toni can sing and play as if this was nothing. That's incredible.

I come back for this video some time every year, i love it. Especially the solo Toni does. You're both great to watch

I truly enjoy listening to you two gals playing and singing. I grew up in the era of music you two cover. It's refreshing to see your generation bringing back this great music in such good taste. Great flat pickin' there Toni. It's nice seeing female players with such good guitar technique. Both of you keep up the good work.

Said it before and I’ll you guys do it so well together and always look like you’re having fun. The way it should be. Thank you for another one girls.

[dangermain]

This is some serious musicianship going on here, even with the missed note..love these two young women..I'm searching the internet for more of their performances..

[schienenlaufer]

I might put it into these words: These gifted young ladies celebrate their wonderful music in a way that a lot of older men, often musicians themselves, gather here and adore them, as I do. Greetings from Hamburg, Germany from a very old saxophonist.

I saw this 10 years ago when this was just posted. It was the first time I had heard the song. Thank you for introducing me to Simon and Garfunkel and one of my favourite songs!

[callcall]

I don’t care if I’m seeing this for the first time and it was posted 20 years ago, that is simply amazing, I LOVE your

[charlescarpio]

I love the way Toni cracks up during the fast part, and Reina has to join her.

[leoso]

I've been listening to your music for a month on n off at work and my favorite thing besides the amazing music that you make is that slight chuckle and just knowing your having a great life while making others better

[cheetahspencer]

Reina your vocal style just hits me, that tone is real cool.  Also Toni is a sick musician and makes it a damn good duo.
