I wondered what the hook was. I was watching intently, figuring he must have some kind of heartbreaking birth defect he's overcome, or whatever.
I did see this phenomenon first-hand at a "jazz club" in Thailand, where the singer for the house band was belting out pop-music standards with perfect enunciation. In between songs, it gradually became clear that she spoke not a word of English. I was definitely impressed... I wondered how long it would take me to learn Thai pop songs phonetically, and sing them so convincingly as to fool native speakers? I'm sure Thailand would run out of tomatoes first.

That's so true: once in a while one does see something that's totally amazing.
In this case, for me, it's the fact that what you find totally amazing is this guy performing a completely unremarkable version of a Simon and Garfunkel song, and that's whether he doesn't understand backwards underwater Swahili or whatever.
Nonetheless, I'm glad this music could touch you. And it is a fine song, one of Paul Simon's best, IMHO.

I'd worked out an elaborate scenario in which he was badly scarred on the other half of his face, perhaps at the hands of the US military. I kept waiting for layers of painful irony to manifest themselves when he turned and faced the camera, irony which could only be resolved through further meditation on Paul Simon's quiet ode to the idea of America as an unrealized dream...

Hi flapjax,
Sure, I did see that on tv a long time ago. He was pretty rude with women, I remember he told another singer (C. Ringer) she was a bitch because she had been playing in x rated movies. That's not really the side I liked but some violence sure fits the picture, since he was the highly sensitive kind.

I won't enter into the debate as to whether this one-link YouTube FPP was worth it. I personally think the -right- OLYTFPP is perfectly reasonable, although it has to be a really GREAT video.
But what really bugs me is how the text of the post is so generic that there's really no way to tell what it is just from reading it. Is it a musical performance? Is it someone wrapping their lip around their nose? Is it firefighters working on 9/11? Is it a cat who can say "Mama?" Even the page title provides no real hints other than that the video is of a vaguely patriotic nature.
People who post FPPs usually hope that people will enjoy them, it's in your best interest to be a little more specific concerning what awaits us on the other side of the magic portal.
