It can't be said enough. Simon and Garfunkel gave us a warning, Disturbed gave us a response to the warning being ignored
But you can't reconcile with people who think men can birth to baby's and that words are the same as violence. And if you bring any of that up to them then trans people will be harmed.
I completely agree. 👍
Very well said! And we only have ourselves to blame.
@Fred Fronkle I feel this is also reflected in The Rolling Stones "Sympathy for the Devil", Lucifer saying you ( people ) blame me for these atrocities , but man himself is to blame .
I came here to say this very same thing.
Daughters jaw drops...Mom just looks over and starts nodding. Yeah, that's how I feel when I introduce someone to this masterpiece.
Also, to my knowledge, this is the only version of the song that Paul Simon gave the stamp of approval and personally congratulated Disturbed on their powerful performance on Conan.
Old, like I am, or young, this song hits everyone in heart and soul!!!😊
Most covers of songs don't impress me all that much...but this...this takes an already great song and takes it to the next level that you didn't even know existed.
You should check out Disturb's other covers. Tears for Fears: Shout and Phil Collins /Genesis: Land of Confusion. Both are great.
Wayne try out 1 version of this song, i really love its from a program called "beste zangers" its just known singers singing music for 1 other. it is henk poort sound of silence, he sang it for floor jansen
Speaking of Covers...... I LUV the Johny Cash cover of Nine Inch Nails "Hurt"
Paul Simon has told Disturbed that he sees it is their song. He has it in his online playlist.
Please say I’m not the only one who was SURPRISED that mum knew of this version AND NOT being a disturbed fan, and the DAUGHTER is the one who is the one who is getting baptised in this beautiful ensemble - love it :)
totally agree, mum not daughter knowing surprised me too, great reaction!
I actually was surprised and it made for a far better reaction in my opinion because she had this bias expectation of a theme for the song and i understand why, heavy metal, she repeated albums that were obviously harsher than this is so to be totally surprised by this emotional rendition must have knocked her socks off
its all over social media, along with the actual vid, conans show, there's like 20 reaction vids of it, why wouldn't the mother know
I'm a 56 year old guy and I cry every time I hear this. Not necessarily sad tears but it's such an emotional song and angelic voice it's just so moving.
Me 2
@@bopoulsen4030 kinda makes me feel good too like it washes away stress yet not feeling sad. A very well performed song will and should play with your emotions and a positive feel good one is great.
I'm in my forties and I've heard it dozens of times and everytime I tear up near the end
@@Dudeamis17 a perfectly performed song or even just an instrumental should move us to tears and we should never be ashamed. I can't help tearing up and I just don't care anymore that I do.
But I truly love that last Sounnnnnnnnnd he just hangs it out there for over 4 seconds on studio version and over 5 seconds in the live version. Pure perfect vocal control and the sudden use of actual silence straight after it is beautiful.
I agree...I am 55 and my heart pounds every time I hear this and I am a big Disturbed fan
Daughter i loved watching you while you listened to this powerful version.
Your so beautiful too ⚘️
I love how mom is enjoying the song and the daughter looks like she’s about ready to cry! Outstanding!
Great cover. You should check out their live performance of this on "Conan." Dare I say, even more powerful and haunting.
The live on Conan is stunning. And David was sick when he sang there and still pulled it off. Really powerful. 💜
A friend sent me a message that night to tune in...OMG I am so glad I did...I was floored.
Hearing it live in concert will give you chills.
The live Conan show was exceptional, and makes you be in awe of the power, and talent that he has.
David in concert? When I saw it live, he saved Sound of Silence for the closing song, and it was such a capstone for the concert. Worth the 75 dollar/person tickets.
Yes, that was a great performance
Agreed, much better than the engineered studio version.
Paul Simon himself posted about how much he loved this version. I prefer the Conan O'Brian show live performance to this official video. David Draiman was sick with a bad cold and still sounded amazing.
Supposedly Draiman went on Conan to prove that he could sing this without autotune, because some people accused him of not actually hitting the notes and tones naturally, so he wanted to do it live as prove. Unfortunately, he was sick that day also, so the person controlling the audio for the show did lay on a little autotune to clean it up, to the annoyance of Draiman
Every time David goes into the vocal fry with his voice near the end I get the chills,his version of this song is just so good.
I'll agree to disagree but still, can appreciate your opinion. I don't think he (or they) holds a candle to the beauty of Simon and Garfunkel's version, and I guess that means a LOT of people will be coming after me pretty soon. Kind of feels though, like I just stuck my hand in a hornets' nest. However, what I see in the comments (here) is a WAVE of people who must have heard this version first, which I think explains why they like this one so much over the original.
@@StevesFunhouse I've got quite a bit of "age" on me and I've heard both versions. I feel like this version moves me in a way the original did not. This version seems to draw out an Emotional Response in most people who sit and listen closely. 🎶
@@SAGE_Dust Well, I did sit and listen, and I guess this man and group are just not my cup of tea. I really don't like this version or this singer's voice, and I don't think he conveys the thought feeling, emotions or provoking delivery that S&G did.
Now, I have to say, I am not as fond of the "acoustic only" or "in the park" versions of the S&G version as I am of the remixed one from the 2nd album (with the amped guitar and drums), but I think all 3 version are better than this one. I realize this is just my opinion, and that doesn't carry any weight with anyone else, but everybody's got one, it's mine, and I own it 😊😎.
@@StevesFunhouse Nice thing about music... it moves ppl differently 😊 either version that ppl prefer it doesn't take from away from Fantastically Written Song 🕯
@@SAGE_Dust Now, there, you have me in total agreement. Nice that 2 people can meet and "talk" about things without becoming "negative" ... it IS a great song 👍😎
One of my favorite songs ever and I still get emotional listening to it. I think you're analysis is 100% on. Simon and Garfunkel were giving a gentle warning, and Disturbed is angry and yelling at us to wake up because it's really happening.
Great reaction!
When a face says a thousand words .....
The waves of emotion across her face ...... 😍
Paul Simon wrote many classic tunes in his lifetime, this is one. Disturbed stayed true to the lyrics and created a loving tribute. I love it.
I like the fact Paul Simon reached out to Dave to say how his cover was great also love the respect Dave showed back saying the pair was great song writers respect on both party’s.
One of Disturbed's songs I think you both would love is "Reason To Fight". It's on the order of this, not like their regular stuff. It carries a powerful theme, though, and I think you'd both love it.
Even though they are a metal band, their messages in their songs are commentaries on modern society, and the things that are causing issues today. Their messages are good.
Simon & Garfunkel sung the warning, Disturbed the anger and the version from Pentatonix gives hope. You should hear that one too.
Epic is the word you’re looking for. I’ve seen and heard this and the live version dozens of times, and I still get chills when he gets to the line “and the people bowed and prayed, to the neon god they made.” I love watching reaction videos because I get to relive, through you, my experience when I first heard this cover.
I agree. Same with the watching every Johnny Cash - Hurt reaction. I'm suspious of anyone who does not tear up during that video.
I couldn't have said it better!
S&G's original is the warning, Disturbed's version is the anger over people not heeding that warning.
Great Reaction Video......
I am watching both "Sound of Silence" reactions back to back..... Awesomeness.....
You are not the first person I've heard say "S&G version was the Warning, and Disturbed was the result cause didn't listen".......
For Years I have been amused by how people can be "Shocked" that some of the "Rocker Bands" have the most Powerful "Ballads".......
Check out Peter Hollens with Tim Foust doing this song.
The lyrics of this song are profound...and so true in today's world....
A good strong version. Listen to Pentatonic's version as a comparison (Acapella version)
SOLID reaction and analysis. I'm 67, and THIS cover ALWAYS hit me deeply and brings the tears. ❤❤❤
The daughters reaction is absolutely priceless!!!!
Just to let you know David draiman is one of the most prolific voices in music today. He was a trained Cantor and his range is astounding. Very emotional.
he trained to be a cantor, he never actually became one
This has been my favorite song(this version) for years. My mom loved it too when she was alive. I love the memory of running into the kitchen the 1st time I heard it so she could too. We both feel in love with it. Seeing a mother and daughter reacting to it just brings it back even more.
Would you please react to the live version because he's even more powerful live if you can believe that. I like both but live the power of his personality comes really shining through and he's warning you and it seems he's seeing things he cannot unsee. Thank you very much ladies
I agree.....100 per cent.
Yes. David's voice provides all the imagery you need, and his performance on Conan was remarkable even though he was ill.
One of the most powerful covers (songs) I've ever heard. His voice starts out like a gentle rain with dark looming clouds on the horizon. The volume builds like an oncoming storm until it crescendos at hurricane force. Then, when the storm's fury is spent, his voice eases back to a gentle mist with just a hint of the sun peeking through at the end. Great reaction by the way!
Paul sing a vision, David sang a memory.
Try the PTX version now. You will need to obscure the video a bit. You will have heard the 3 best versions of Sound of Silence.
If you haven't watched already, the live version on Conan O'Brien is even better which is mind blowing for a live version.
So good I love Simon and Garfunkel but I like this version better
the imagery of the people on one bank with the music and the musicians on the other finally getting together as the boat crosses the divide is breathtaking to me.
Not many covers that I think are better than the original; this is one. No disrespect to the original, it's an icon. But the delivery here does even more justice to the meaning of the lyrics.
LOVE the Line The Neon God they made How True
So many people don’t mention the happy ending. I see it too. With all the powerful anger in this version, I love that it ends on a note of hope. If we listen to the warning and do the work, voices will begin to share those unvoiced songs.
Not the song itself, but does anyone else think the video may be about the "death" of actual musical instruments in current popular music? To me the end of the video illustrates this with all of the various instruments on an ark, like trying to save them.
You ladies need to do Home Free. Literally any song from them is good.
love home free one i like is go rest high on that mountain
Now that you have heard the original, and Disturbed's cover of this song, the next rendition to try out is by Pentatonix, an acapella group. It's not overdoing the tune, but balances both versions amazingly well.
My mother - a long time Simon & Garfunkel fan - absolutely loved this rendition of the song.
What a meaningful song. Thanks for sharing this video. Awesome voice and video. I cried through this song ❤
If you would like to do another Disturbed song listen to Hold on to memories. It’s a very emotional song and beautifully sung.
Since daughter hasnt seen it before ive been watching her entire reaction. You can honestly see the emotional build-up of "oh wow" to "i feel this" so clearly. The eyes opening. Then the lip pull to control the face, the little gulp then the tight lip close when he meets the neon lights. I knew she had to stop before she did XD and with good reason too. Can easily bring you to tears if you arent prepared
100% my take on the daughter also. I swear she was about to burst into tears. It hit her good. She went to that place.......
You guys nailed it on the head!! Great analagy!!
Great reaction. Yous should still do the live one on Conan. I think your Mom will like a few other Disturbed songs such as, Hold on to Memories, A Reason to Fight (live version) and a Sting remake, If I Ever Lose My Faith in You. I will sub and watch for these!
I can't remember it right now, but some comment on the song I read was "the Simon & Garfunkel version was the warning, the Distrubed version is the angry realization and powerful last effort to get the message across". all while being beautifully arranged and performed.
They do such justice to those incredible lyrics.
WOW!! Excellent explanation. BRAVO!!!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I would highly recommend the live version as well. Even knowing the studio version the live is amazing also.
That’s the best analogy for the communication disconnection…a crack in humanity. Really nice perception.
Since you guys did this one and seemed to enjoy it I'd suggest that you check out the Bad Wolves covering the song Zombie which of course was originally by the Cranberries.
Its virtually a battle cry for those of us who are trying to wake up the electronic technological zombies and get the world to be like it used to be in the olden days when people actually physically listened and communicated . I remember in the 60's and 70's people still actually communicated in person unlike today's internet based social media.
One song that Disturbed has recorded is absolutely amazing and is slightly metal. It’s called “The Light” and “Hold on to Memories” is a soft song that David wrote after watching the animated movie “Coco” with his child.
Please check out Pentatonix!
I laughed out loud when I realized Mom was doing the recommendation on this cover LOL The live version on Conan was extraordinary...
Loved GP 2's comments and analysis. Beautifully said. Once you've watched the trilogy, the "hopeful" conclusion by Pentatonix, you can digest all three. BTW, I'm waiting for the third installment to sub, even though I desperately want to do that now, because you two are fantastic. 😘
Not many people realized he had such a beautiful voice until this song...when you could actually hear his voice...lol...as most of their songs are so aggressive. Draiman...one of the best male vocalists on the planet. When he sings....you know who it is. He can go from angelic head voice to rasp/distortion on a dime and back....not easy to do. Also did you notice he can put vibrato on the rasp too? VERY difficult to do. You both had a great take on it.
The first time I heard this cover, I was stunned.
The second time I heard it I wept.
I Always liked the song! This version is really good. My favorite version is CORVYX cover of sound of silence. Try to react to it!
Please watch the Conan O’Brien live performance. Incredible. Not a waste of time. David was trained as a cantor. Incredible voice.
Great cover reaction. To me Simon and Garfunkel were telling us to get our shit together or the future won’t be pretty and David’s version is saying oh well the shit has now hit the fan!!!!! Just saying. So says Austin Tx!!!! 😍😍😍🍸😎
Try their "The Light". Great lyrical message; darn good musicianship. (The accompanying video in their "Official" version is pretty intense and can distraction from the music/lyrics. Suggest the "official lyrics" version, but also to watch the full official version with that pretty intense, attention-attracting video.)
1966 was a much worse time for America and the world. The original version of this song was a sad lament. Unfortunately, this new version is just a shouty version and doesn't really resonate like the original. Not really bad, though.
He definitely has a beautiful voice . I'm not getting what you mean by "simple" less definition on instruments perhaps.
The song's priority is about the lyrics. The lyrics in this song by ordinary standards are complex, and deep. One needs to search between the lines. Music videos are for those who don't have, or no longer have the capability, capacity in using an important human ability, being a visionary/ imagination.
Noah's Arch, would be the symbolism with the boat,. As the song is full of religious innuendo,
It seems to be a pattern for reactors to follow, the marketing of what sells best to their demographic. Or it's the payment format by patrons who choose a request.
One doesn't need to sound aggressive, threatening, or scary to put a message across that is about a dire issue. May I suggest you listen to, or put it up on your channel. I'm sure this specific song I'll recommend, if you have ever heard before , but the artist you have.
Look for it, on TH-cam under:
Tapestry - Don McLean (with Lyrics), click more below.
Don McLean who writes, plays exquisitely. As he does on this song. But the song is a message from long ago to what is taking place in climate disaster, and social degradation, especially the greed of humans. A powerful video with artist conotations

"Tapestry - Don McLean (with Lyrics), click more below."
Don McLean who writes, plays exquisitely. As he does with this song. But the song is a message from long ago to what is taking place in climate disaster, and social degradation, and the greed of human nature. A powerful video with artistic visual connotations for those who relate more to sight, than lyrics. This song makes "Disturb" sound like child play. It's a soft voice with power that will tear down what's wrong with human civilization, as we still hide our heads in the sand. This song, and video is for those who want to accept the truth.and what disaster is ahead.
"The Future, Leonard Cohen ". An artist and visionary, this song is powerful. And "Disturb" or heavy metal is not a requirement. Heavy lyrics, is all it needs.
Your definition of "Disturb" rendition was interesting . I think the video was more about him self , selling his look. But then again I grew up listening to lyrics on my LP, and not the focus of artists face. They did do an excellent version for today's demographics. But then it sounds like recycled history. To walk on coals does not make a man more of a man, but possibly a seeker of notoriety.
.
Technically it's a powerful rendition but Disturbed's version is...disturbed. I felt the heaviness of the lyrics and this just gave me that feeling of hopelessness. The end where he sounded defiant and urging people to march. Stirring but lacked something to uplift the listener. Sometimes as Andy Williams described S&G " You can't help but be mesmerized by just their voices and a guitar. " While I get some people will get a different experience and love this version. Simon and Garfunkel's Sound of Silence just gives me a sense of hope at the end.
Very good reaction and Analysis. Please check out any version of reason to fight. You will see what a beautiful human being David really is in the song and the dedication for the song is so poignant and necessary
The Disturbed version was sung more in an angrier emotion to the lyrics than Simon & Garfunkel's. They put their own spin on it and I thought it was a good interpretation (still prefer Simon & Garfunkel's original)..
I love this song, both Simon and Garfunkel's version and Disturbed's cover. There is another group that has done a cover of this song and that group is named Pentatonix. You should give Pentatonix "Sound Of Silence" a listen I think that you both would like it. Thank you for this reaction.
I've not seen any of your reactions and seeing the daughter trying to hold in her emotions...wow. And very astute observations by the daughter. I'm going to check a few more of your reviews. Thanks much.
It's like David reached out and touched your soul. Amazing!
Great reaction ladies I love listening to orher people's insight into what they get from the song. This is one of the best covers to date but as Shannon commented you have to watch the live one on the Conan show very powerful and David was very sick and sitting the whole performance and still pull off a performance that in my opinion out did the studio version. I would also love to see you react to The Light and Hold On To Memories also by Disturbed I think you will enjoy those songs. God Bless the both of you and your family 🙏🤙
I love this reaction. You should react to the Johnny Cash cover of Hurt from Nine inch nails. Its really haunting and beautiful.
Disturbed's version is what the S & G version was warning us about; we did not listen then, will we listen now?
Now I bet your mom would like a few of the songs. Have her listen to “The Light” or “Hold On To Memories” 😬
Yes the live version from the Conan show is magnificent. Great review!
I wish I could have shared this with my dad. The night before the Vietnam War draft, he told me about going to a midnight meeting at the church at the center of his college campus. All the lights were turned off except the candles, they played this song on the pipe organ, and everyone sang since it was new enough to still be on pop charts. So many more than "10,000 people" went down into silence in the next few years, after that night, and this is the best musical approximation I've heard of the rage we should still feel about that.
I'm glad you get to share this across generations. You're very lucky.
Simon and Garfunkel's version was an observation and Disturbs is a warning.
S n G was a warning and disturbed was anger at the warning not being heeded. Totally agree 👍🏻
I cannot stand to listen to the uncut version of Down with the Sickness. Those terrible lyrics.
For all us millions of people who were part of that wonderful Simon And Garfunkel period while growing up, this cover helped add emotion to the words that Paul Simon wrote. This cover is so far out of Disturbed normal genre but you have to give David and his group a big, big high five for their arrangement. And as one of those "oldie" guys, I enjoy watching this video over and over again. Again, it just simply added the emotion Paul Simon meant but could not deliver.
So cool to see the reactions - I've probably watched 30 different people reacting to this, and I think this is the first time I've heard the interpretation about the difference between Simon & G's version in terms of it being more of a warning, and the Disturbed version being "it's here". Wow!
"I've probably watched 30 different people reacting to this" I came down here to say literally this, and then I saw your comment, lol, but you hit the nail on the head. A lot of the others did tend to glaze over Simon and G and focus more on David and Disturbed's version of it, but in their defense, its easy to do with a voice such as his heheh. It really is an awesome experience getting to see so many people see him do this version for the first time. Especially this video. I could tell she was holding back the tears (I always cry if they do/almost do)
You guys are a perfect team. I will be looking forward for more.
This cover shows how different a song can be with the the right talented artist performing it. This is one of my most favorite covers I have ever heard. And the video portrays the message so well.
You guys should do Silent Running - Mike and The Mechanics and tell me this song is not relevant to today
Visceral, isn't it? The instrumentals (that drum), the video (brilliant) and that voice! Well, I was kind of wedded to the original .... until I heard this and it's a performance that cannot be ignored. Gets you at all levels. David's delivery of the message was superb.
I just stumbled upon your account today and am really enjoying myself. It's really cool how one of you is a Disturbed fan and mom grew up with Simon & Garfunkel's original, as did I. My son also loved Disturbed as a teenager so when this came out, we were both 😳😳. Keep it up ladies, nicely done.
Disturbed has really pulled this off and turned this song into their own. Even Paul Simon said he was impressed with it and even put it up on his social media and contacted them to give high praise.
If you want to hear another decent cover by Disturbed, first listen to Land Of Confusion by Genesis before listening to their version.
Yes!
I very rarely like covers of songs I know as well as I do the S&G version, but I love this version. It was done with respect to the original, yet still sounded different.
Personally I like covers of songs done by lead singers with powerful voices better than the covers. Such as this rendition of sound of silence, Shinedown's rendition of Simple Man, and I know Johnny Cash doesn't have a powerful voice during the song, but his rendition of hurt is better than NIN's rendition just because of how he sings it and the music video gave me chills when he shuts the piano when he's done singing the song basically the last time before he dies!
@@brandonreder9869 Hurt was amazing by JC. Definitely better than the original.
Disturbed has lyrics in their songs that often have a social message.
please listen to Pentatonix version of this song… even better in my opinion … but this is still very good
Other songs by Disturbed that fans of their Sound of Silence cover might enjoy include A Reason To Fight and Hold On To Memories.
their version of Land of Confusion is also rather good, not as good as thins though
People who don't have a strong reaction to this song worry me.
The genius of Disturbed's rendition is matched by the genius of Paul Simon's Lyrics: "Silence like a cancer grows." WOW!
I'm glad you gals got to this song. I love the analogy of Simon and Garfunkel's version being a gentle warning compared to Disturbed's in your face powerful version that "Yells" at us, "It's happening people! Wake up!"
A rare case when the cover surpasses the original .a real masterpiece!
Great interpretation of Sound of Silence. The guy has a very deep voice. If you want to review a female with a deep voice checkout Diana Ankudinova and her interpretation of Elvis Presley song "Can't Help Falling in Love". She does some real vocal gymnastics going very low to semi-high notes for a 19 year old girl. She's very popular on TH-cam with 10's of millions of views. She also has a Wikipedia page telling her early life in an Orphanage for abused kids and list of all the cover songs she has performed.
I love the original but Disturbed's version is definitely my favorite. I also love their cover of Land of Confusion from Genesis.
