Bridge over Troubled Water is the fifth and final studio album by Simon and Garfunkel.
First released on January 26, 1970, it reached No. 1 on Billboard Music Charts pop albums list.
It won a Grammy Award for Album of the Year, as well as for Best Engineered Recording, while its title track won the Grammy Award for Record of the Year and Song of the Year in the Grammy Awards of 1971. It has since sold over 25 million copies worldwide.
The album proved to be a vast success in the United Kingdom, enjoying several runs at number one, spending some years in the charts and eventually becoming the country's biggest-selling album of 1970 and 1971.
In August 2006, the continued popularity of the album was proven when it charted 7th place in The BBC Radio 2 Music Club Top 100 Albums.
In 2003, it was ranked at #51 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list.
