However, despite all their work, arguably, their most well-known track is the iconic “The Sound of Silence," written by Paul Simon.
"The Sound Of Silence" By Paul Simon
The song is about loneliness slowly creeping into one’s life. And it has been a popular choice for covers. From shows like America’s Got Talent, The Voice and American Idol to videos posted on YouTube, dozens of performers have opted to perform the Simon and Garfunkel classic.
One little girl, 11-year-old Jadyn Rylee, tried her hand at “The Sound of Silence.” The child does a terrific job singing the song’s beautiful but eerie lyrics.

Viewers will witness Jadyn Rylee’s confidence in her voice grow as she covers this iconic song in the video. In the early stages of the song and video, Jadyn sings in a very measured and calm way. She is hitting all the notes but not really adding much feeling or emotion to the words.
But, nearly halfway through the video, at approximately the 1:45-minute mark of the clip, things change dramatically. She gets much louder and begins moving her voice up and down. She really makes the song her own!
Applause For Jadyn Rylee's 'The Sound Of Silence'
Many others enjoyed the young girl’s rendition of the Simon and Garfunkel song.
“Jadyn has such a heartfelt song that she did an amazing job on at such a young age. What a gift! May her voice take her far,” one person wrote.
“To perform that song like this little girl did is to have the voice of an Angel beautifully performed,” a second person added.
