      Responding to the fellas reaction on the comments to Simon Garfunkel Simon at Paul Simon actually met David chef Ramsay's New Year's Eve party couple years back. Paul Simon was so taken by the version of the song that he actually put it up on his on his Facebook website and he's never done that to anyone that's ever remade one of his songs and the connection to David was huge between him and Paul because he Paul thought that he brought this to a brand new generation and what a well job he's done with it

    Paul Simon likes this version so much, it's on his playlist and he supports it 100%. David Draiman went into the booth and didn't come out for hours, until he felt comfortable w/it. He was classically trained as a vocalist, and has a very wide range.

He told me #Disturded & I started crying. They were one of our son's favorite bands. Our son Michael was killed by a Drunk Driver in 2013. Disturded was coming to the venue where our son was killed. In 2016 I reached out to #Disturded & their management to dedicate this song to our son on #Montage Mountain #Scranton, PA. I wanted to hear his name said on that venue. God bless them they honored him. I will forever be grateful to them 🙏 🙏🙏 Their live version is on TH-cam. It was hard to pass the area where he was killed but I did it for Michael. 😢💔😢

    Oddly enough, this cover is indirectly responsible for me discovering your channel! This was the song I heard when casually browsing on Facebook, and it hit me so hard I wanted to listen to it over and over, so I searched for it on TH-cam. In doing so, I also discovered music reaction channels, so I went down that rabbit hole, searching for reactions to this song. That eventually led me to Elizabeth Zharoff's channel ("The Charismatic Voice"), and I liked her reaction style so much, I wanted to see what else she had reacted to. Around that same time, the YT algorithm was also filling my sidebar suggestions with this young Kazakh kid named Dimash something. I watched Elizabeth's reaction videos to his music and fell totally in love. (I know you can relate! 😄) Then I wanted to see what others had to say about Dimash, and that eventually led me to your channel. But I might never have started down that road of music reaction video channel exploration if I hadn't seen this video about a year ago and had a sense of wonder at music's power to evoke emotions reawakened.

    First time on your channel. As a fellow musician I was kind of thinking you might have more to comment on the story within the video. A couple of suggestions, the live version on Conan is great and you would like it a lot. But if you want to be different from all of the countless others who have already reacted to it there is another live version that is also great. You should check out Disturbed in Houston featuring Myles Kennedy. Additionally, if you want to check out other Disturbed songs you will get tons of requests for Down With the Sickness. You should postpone that until you've heard some of their other music. I recommend Indestructible, Immortalized, Are You Ready, The Light, Stricken... or any of like 8 or so other covers they've done which are awesome. Disturbed is an amazing band and extremely talented.

    The video is about the death of modern music. Computers have replaced people, the same four chords are used in almost every song, and there is no complexity at all. Yet the people need the communication that music can provide. So, the video starts off with the broken and abandoned instruments and complete silence. Then, gradually as David sets the stage with his powerful voice, the video shows the band members picking up instruments and carrying them to the shore... the gulf between real music and communication and the people. The people who have music scores in their hands awaiting the arrival of the musicians. It ties the message in the song, which you two seem oblivious to, to the visual representation of the music theme. I fear that you two spent too much time "hearing without listening." Maybe try it again without trying to be snarky.

      Actually the original song was about the explosion of television from the 3 major US Networks to 12 Cable channels and the subsequent obsession with just watching TV (the NEON GOD) and ignoring the people around you. In today’s context that could be Social Media where people derive their worth and value from the number of “Likes” they receive, and like the early 60’s are obsessed with technology and don’t actually talk with people?

    If you were to listen to Simon & Garfunkel, their song was a protest of what society had become. I grew up in that era. And their song was perfect for what their message was. This version by Disturbed is taking the original protest into consideration. And the emotions of the words and the music are about the rage that nothing was done about what the protest was about. The music video showed the chasm between the words being written on one side and the music on the other. The boat at the end was the music / instruments being transported across the water to where the words were to finally bring everything together. And no, it wasn’t a ‘River of death’.
    I didn’t get any indication that either of you understood the story, the emotions. That’s too bad because you’re missing the entire message.

  • @sicko_the_ew
    @sicko_the_ew 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    This song offered comfort of a sort to a lovely guy I knew, during the years he spent dying. I think a part of that was the diction. Some of the emotional parts can be heard as "passionately atheist", and he was a pretty keen atheist, so that would've helped, too. I wasn't all that interested in the cover before ("it was OK"), but I've learned how to hear it since those days.
    I suppose for anyone avoiding metal for its aggressive side, it's natural never to come across the other side of metal (right from the very beginning) - the ballads? Although since Metallica's ballads became popular, maybe it's just forgetfulness? It's pretty much a tradition that a metal album must have at least one more gentle, more melancholy song on it. (Might be an idea to go looking for those to find out whether there's some joy in listening to that part of the genre, actually. The joy you get crying at a sad movie, I mean. :-) )
    I could offer something different (not big enough to use for a reaction video, but musically perhaps at least interesting) it's by Welsh rock band, *Budgie* , and if you have the patience it ranges over a very wide range of tempos, moods, and even music styles. (And the rock aspect is more "energetic" than aggressive, too. Although with these things, the bark is always less than the bite. The most peace-loving, gentle people on Earth are often metal-heads; and the most vicious, downright mean ones generally groove to something much, much more slick and smooth and slithery than this, too.)

    He is classically trained and is a Cantor as well. This was out of their comfort zone. NOT a river of death but that boat crosses the divide where on one side is people who haven't heard and they are telling them TO HEAR . This is hope because the sound of Silence is crossed over. This is the best version ever and I was a teenager in the 60' s . Simon and Garfunkel told us what was wrong back then and now they warn us that what the prophets wrote on the walls is for us to wake up from the neon gods we have followed!!

    Well, considering that Disturbed recorded their version first, in December 2015, and Pentatonix recorded their version of 'this' version in February 2019, I think you have it the other way round. Pentatonix didn't even vary their version much from this one.

    To me S&Gs version is like a warning to the people and Disturbs version is like ok you didn't listen now I'm pissed..... If you liked this cover you should hear their great cover of the genesis song Land of confusion. It is also so well done. They also did a cover of Shout that is banging.... As well as many original songs

  • @LeeCarlson
    @LeeCarlson 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Upon hearing this cover, Paul Simon, himself, said that this was the best cover of his song that he had ever heard, and actually linked this video in his personal social media. It does not hurt that David Draiman was a traditionally trained Jewish cantor before he set off to conquer the world of heavy metal music.

    What a lot of people don't realize about alot of rock musicians and their songs is the meanings behind them. And it also seems to be an outlet for a lot of pains they have internalized. That come out through songs with a very aggressive feel to them
    But if you take a step back and learn about the meanings of the songs and the musicians their is a lot more going on their them what's on the surface.

    I guess maybe you'd say that Symphony No. 5 in C minor by Ludwig van Beethoven has "jumped the shark", too? .....William Shakespeare's works also maybe?......At certain times in their lives some folks just have limited registers and so must toss something older in order to appreciate a newer thing... others can like the novel thing "as well"...

    Be sure to watch their live performance on Conan. NOTE: that David Draiman was really sick for the Conan live performance and I heard he was not pleased with his performance, being the perfectionist that he is I can understand why he felt that way. However, the production as a whole performancewas amazing and his was EXCEPTIONAL! I loved it. So POWERFUL and EMOTIONAL! - Disturbed "The Sound Of Silence" 03/28/16 | CONAN on TBS Team Coco

    l LOVE this version. l think it really projects the profound urgency of the lyrics. S & G were more sing-songy & hopeful (of course it was 50 yrs ago).
    Disturbed says "wake up, stupid, it's upon us!"
    Although, l did have to watch it about 10 times before l understood the ending......he is actually a little bit hopeful. That sailboat full of instruments is sailing across to the people on the other shore who were writing all the music💞

    A heavy metal band that catches EVERYONE by surprise, then elevates and owns a song (this song) 50+ years after it was written!! Anyone who hasn't been blown away by this isn't really listening!! No matter what music you like (All Genres) this is superbly done and flawless in every way!! The best cover/song/official video these past 5+ years. \m/

    I had never noticed the Ark at the end of the video. Perfect, intimating that God Itself is affirming the messages in these lyrics, the Ark of course signifying a destruction of a people whose hearts have turned to stone. Simon and Garfunkel's version makes me think of a cold and cruel New York while Disturbed's version, makes me think of cold and cruel planet on the eve of destruction.

    The 1960s hit, "The Sound of Silence" by Simon & Garfunkel conveys a powerful warning against the dangers of indifference, which still comes in handy today. To many people they thought the meaning leaned more towards JFK's Assassination but that could be further from the truth. It's about facing our fears & basically they for seen the future in this song.
