Which artist won the 1969 Grammy for Record of the Year with 'Mrs. Robinson'?

Simon & Garfunkel won the 1969 Grammy Award for Record of the Year with “Mrs. Robinson.”

Paul Simon wrote the song, and the duo recorded it for the soundtrack and album associated with the 1967 film The Graduate. The film used an earlier version of the song before the pair completed the single version that became a major hit.

The song’s connection with The Graduate helped make it one of the defining recordings of the late 1960s. Its refrain and acoustic arrangement became closely associated with the film’s characters and themes.

The 1969 Grammy win came after the song’s 1968 commercial release. It is sometimes confused with the duo’s Album of the Year win for Bridge over Troubled Water, which occurred at the 1971 Grammys. “Mrs. Robinson” won Record of the Year two ceremonies earlier.
