"When you’re weary, feeling small, when tears are in your eyes, I’ll dry them 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"

During a Kellyoke segment on her show, Kelly Clarkson sings a cover of Eva Cassidy’s rendition of ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water' by Simon & Garfunkel with her band. Her performance was stunning, and many of her fans shared how much they loved it online.
"Eva Cassidy had a way of taking the most recognizable and iconic songs and changing them just enough to make them fresh and surprising but still honoring the spirit of the original. She was truly a musical force. Kelly does a beautiful job of showcasing Eva’s brilliance and of course the genius of S&G. Brava," comments one person online.

"One of my favorite songs. It fits with Kelly’s soulful voice," writes another person on YouTube after watching the video.
The song ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water' was written by Paul Simon and was actually inspired by an old southern gospel song. When listening to the southern gospel group Swan Silvertones' 1959 song ‘Oh Mary Don't You Weep,' one particular line stood out to Paul Simon.
The line was, "I'll be your bridge over deep water / If you trust in my name." These lyrics helped Paul Simon finish writing the song ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water' and contributed to its more gospel elements.
