![DISTURBED - The Sound Of Silence [Official Music Video] REACTION & ANALYSIS by Vocal Coach & Rapper](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/yr0yAXO9L88/mqdefault.jpg)
When the original Simon & Garfunkel song came out in the mid '60s, the public loved the song and it was a big hit but the critics hated it. They were saying, "How dare this 19 yr old singer (Paul Simon) indict our society like that!" Of course, it became an instant classic and helped kick off the Hippy movement with its socially conscious indictment of society.
I was a teenager in 1963/1964 when the Simon & Garfunkel song came out. What I recall is that all of us young ones just thought it was beautiful, missing the message altogether. I got it this time with the cover highlighted with David Draiman's powerful singing. I'm 73 and you're right, it kicked off the hippy movement and I went into that too. Ha! Enjoyed your comment.
One of the best remakes ever done. I saw them in concert when they did this song live. The crowd was still and silent.till the end. They did an amazing job with this song.
I don’t know who said it, but someone commented that the original version was a prophecy and this version was anger that no one had listened to it. Something like that. Very moving. Both versions.
Agree ... David Draiman's voice is definitely special and his underlying training as a cantor is the foundation of all of his music. When you pay attention to how melodic their metal music is under the distortion and how you can easily understand most of the words, you see how that training kicks in. They are true musicians and they don't play and sing music that just anyone can do in their garage.
The original lyrics were written in the early 1960s by Simon & Garfunkel. They were pretty prophetic, I'd say, when you apply them to today's society. For me the lyrics are about a social divide and the inability to communicate with each other. People have no listening skills these days and when you spend your time on social media posting meaningless memes ... you're not saying a lot, either. I love this version - the only one I actually paid atrention to. And I do love the hope at the end of the video, with one set of people willing to meet the other set, the sun rising in the background ... we can only hope that people will pull their heads out of their backsides and begin communicating instead of allowing their world to be their electronic devices.
One of the most powerful renditions of ANY song I've ever heard.
@Gort-Marvin0Martian - I think you’re right. I was around for the original S&G, I’ve listened to a lot of great music in my life, but I can’t recall ANY song that has moved me as much as this version does. I get chills, tears, all of it. It’s stunning. It’s powerful. It’s big. Words haven’t been invented yet to describe the depth of this version. It puts a totally different spin on the song.
Simon & Garfunkel warned us and Disturbed expressed the anger at our ignoring it. Love both versions of this great song! I get chills!
The original of this song is from the 60s, written and performed by Simon and Garfunkel. S&G's version is a warning of where society was headed; Disturbed's is more a statement of "this is where we're at, now let's fix it."
As was stated, David Draiman was on track and in training to be an Orthodox Jewish cantor; I believe his grandfather was an internationally recognized one at an important synagogue in Jerusalem. But, the lifestyle of the religiously observant didn't settle easily on him, so he left and never completed the training, nor got ordained.
The Sound of Silence has been covered many times. Paul Simon, the song's composer, has recognized Disturbed's version as his favorite.
Do yourself a favor and listen to the Simon & Garfunkel original version. It's also powerful and beautiful in a different way.
It still gives me chills.
David Draiman, an incredible voice!....powerful, controlled, haunting and can go from clear as a bell to vocal fry on a dime and back whenever he wants to. Most people wouldn't realize how incredible his voice is if they haven't heard this......since they are just used to his "metal" vocals. Amazing!
I didn't realize you hadn't reacted to this yet, or I would surely have recommended it! Their Hold On To Memories is also amazing!
Loved your reaction!!!!
Powerful. I get the same reaction every single time I hear it - goosebumps.
Thank you for giving the song the respect it deserves by waiting until the end to comment! So many people could benefit from this way of sharing their reactions. It makes the response so much more poignant and enjoyable!
100% agree on this. The constant interruption to "comment" (and likely avoid YT strikes) disturbs (hahaha) the impact of the song, for the viewer as well as the reactor, imo.
Paul Simon wrote this song in the 1960's. The words still ring true today.
As a non metal fan, I must say this was fantastic. IMO better than the original.
I mean props to Simon and Garfunkel for writing the thing in the first place but David Draimon and Disturbed brought it to life in a way that they didn't. He's just an insanely talented vocalist and that's what really seals the deal on this version of the song.
I grew up listening to this song by Simon & Garfunkel & have always loved it. I had a lot of their records. Many people have covered this song. Disturbed's version is a much darker take on this song. Peter Hollens & Tim Foust (from Home Free) do a great version of this song. Their voices complement each other perfectly & the layering of their voices is amazing. I hope you will check it out.
I love how his voice gets deeper and emotional as he gets further into the song.
It is an amazing cover ! 😎
You feel this song as well as hear it.
Typically I lean towards the original version, BUT I honestly love this. I've watched this video many times and I'm still picking up on new bits of the symbolism it contains. Simon & Garfunkel's version sounds calm & hopeful. This version comes across as the hope has almost died and they are ranting against the lack of any progress by humanity.
I bought the video and I still get chills every time I watch it.
still sends shivers
David and his brother were actually trained as Cantors. Such an amazing voice with perfect control!
Was really impressed the first time I heard this.They performed it on tv. Awesome!
I think the version on the Conan O'Brien show was even better than this video.
@@chriso6719 Agree.😎
Omg I have been waiting for you to to do this so long..... David was a cantor at church...... what absolutely justice to this amazing Simon and Garfunkle song.......did you notice the divide the instruments on one side the vocalists on the other at the end they are on the boat together...... Cheers
Loved the darkness of the video, adds more drama to the lyrics that people still don't understand the message. Written by Paul Simon of Simon and Garfunkel. PAUL said this was the best cover of his song he has heard.
This song came out the year I was born so I’ve heard it all my life but, I never felt it until Disturbed covered it.
This song done this way is amazing. When Simon and Garfunkel wrote and performed it in the early sixties, it was a hit, and this version really hit it on target.
As many have said already, Simon and Garfunkel! I was 11 years old when this song came out in 1964. I loved it then and was stunned when I heard the Disturbed cover. Was on my way home from work when it came on the radio and I was just blown away by the Disturbed cover. Actually think his interpretation is more powerfully done than the original.
Into the Fire... and The Vengeful one... those would be what I would recommend from them... amazing and beautiful ... and his voice is wonderful and full of emotion.
This song has so much meaning…to think JD went thru this when he was between 9 and 10 years old…that voice in his head then the neon light…most people want the voices out of their head…he lived for it.
Blow your mind and listen to this one loud and powerful, then immediately pivot to the original Simon & Garfunkel version. 😂 It's like listening to a Disney chorus 🤣
Paul Simon himself loves this version. ❤️
Great reaction, React to the original 1963-64 studio version of Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkle.
I loved your smile when he strung out the last Sounnnnnnnnnd as most people don't react to that amazing way he sang that word. A couple have commented on it but very few visually smile to it. It adds so much oomph to the song in that third last word.
God asked David do you want the voice of an angel or a Demon and he said yes lol. I've heard people say he's got an angelic voice and others have said it's almost demon like . He's got both. And omg it works.
Great cover reaction. To me Simon and Garfunkel the original writers and performers were telling us back in the 60’s when I first heard the song 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!!!! 😍😍😍🍸😎
It’s just so good! Check out his live performance on Conan- it’s even more goosebump worthy!
Watch the performance of this on Conan. It will show you the instrumentation used. No, it was not acapella, but it was not typical heavy metal instruments. In fact, they use a small orchestra - lots of violins and such.
Wow! You reacted to the Disturbed cover before the original by Simon & Garfunkel. Great cover, but you MUST please react to the original now.
Wow, you are young! This is a classic Simon and Garfunkel song from 1966, written by Paul Simon. But Disturbed has taken this tune to a whole new level. Tbh, I wasn’t a S&G fan back in the day. They were too mellow for me. I liked the Doors, Stones, Zeppelin, etc. my taste hasn’t changed all these years later. I still gravitate towards really good rock. I was stunned speechless the first time I heard this version. S&G can’t even come close. You should listen to the original S&G - and then you’ll understand why everyone is so pumped about this version. I don’t think this song will or can be done better than Disturbed’s rendition.
Simon and Garfunkel original, covered by many, but none better than Disturbed. I would say this is one of those rare moments when a cover is better than the original.
This version of the song touches me to my very soul. Although, I liked the original by Simon and Garfunkel, I have to say this cover tops it. I loved this version. The live version of the song from the Conan show blows this one away.
Such a powerhouse of a rendition but Chod - please do the original! Simon & Garfunkel, so you can give credit where credit is due.
When they done this on Conan it was great too
Listen to their song "Hold On To Memories "
Paul Simon wrote SOS just after the JFK assassination and the ramp up to VietNam war. When he heard Disturbed's version he tweeted that they OWN the song now! It was the first time he ever commented on a cover.
They also did a cover of Shout I think you'd enjoy.
Check out Simon and Garfunkel(Paul wrote this song) doing this at the concert in Central Park in 1983
You really should check out the live Conan performance!! It was great, David was sick and he still killed it.
Your mind will be blown!! David is a classically trained singer and a Cantor.
Check out Little Drummer Boy by God and Country.
This video is stunning.
For yet another side to this band react to Hold On To Memories 🎶🎵
Simon & Garfunkel wrote this to convey man's lack of communication with his fellow man. Just as relevant today as when it was penned.
Well, once you read them, I think the meaning of the lyrics will be pretty clear. It’s about alienation, first of all, and how we don’t listen to one another. And how we have become enslaved to false gods (money, greed, fame, celebrity) and we are being warned “the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls and tenement halls” that there will be hell to pay if we don’t listen. And the scariest thing about those lyrics was that they were written in 1965, over 55 years ago. And they are even more true now than they were then
Please listen to the original by Simon and Garfunkel. They wrote it back in the 60's when TVs were coming into every household and stopping conversations. Just like today with everyone's nose to their phone, disconnected from those around them. We need to wake up and be present with those that we are around so we stop missing those real connections and real conversations that need to be had. Disturbed sounds the alarm bells to this issue rather than just a quiet reminder that nobody heeds.
I’m Down with the Sickness 🤘🏻
You need to hear the original song by Simon and Garfunkel.
Wow
David is ranked in the top 100 vocalist of all time.
Be sure to check out David Draiman on the Conan TV show. The performance is flawless.
❤️
I’m with Paul Simon ❤️ing
Disturbed’s version‼️🤗💝
Paul Simon loves this version.
☮️💜
☮️💙💙💙🔥
Live version from the Conan O'brien show...you'll forget all about this.
Original writers Simon and Garfunkle
Please also listen to the original version by Simon and Garfunkel. For this song, I would stick with the live versions, either the concert in Central Park or the concert in Madison Square Garden. They are both on YT.
Please react to Pentatonix’s cover of this song. They’re a 5 member a capella group. They’ve won 3 Grammys for Daft Punk medley, Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy. and Jolene with Dolly Parton.
Musicians on one side of the water - silent sheet music and silent silent voices on the other side, both are needed to make music
Like it Chod
I listen to it back years ago and I still sing that song
You might like to try "Headstrong" by Trapt that's a headbanger I listen to it that is my favorite headbander hit
You might like to try it.
🤘🎸🤘 Keep on Rockin Bro 🤘🎸🤘
I grew up listening to Simon & Garfunkel’s original version. There are covers aplenty out there, Pentatonix especially have done a wonderful version and while I’m not usually a fan of covers generally, the first time I heard his it blew me away and changed my mind. David Draiman has the most exquisite baritone and in my opinion is wasting his voice singing heavy metal. I’d so love to hear him do some more classical songs. This is just sublime
We need to hear Disturbed do a rendition of Hallelujah! Let's start a petition 😁
S and G wrote it, but it's Davids song!
If you're interested in finding an amazing metal band, I highly recommend you watch Awakening from Unleash the Archers...as a drummer, you'll love this video.
Make sure that you listen to the live version on Conan O'Brien. It's better than this one if that's possible.
David Draiman trained to be a Jewish Cantor but he didn't become one.
He is a classically trained vocalist.
Your reaction was awesome. Paul Simon said that this version is his favorite and this is how he wanted to perform the song. He has this version on his personal playlist.
The best version of this is the live version on Conan
Request Flying Colors 'Blue Ocean'
Excellent job on this one.....good for Disturbed. Proper respect.
Song by Simon and Garfunkel.
Paul Simon....lyrics
What do you think compared to the original by Simon and Garfunkle? I heard Paul Simon approved.
When I watched a technical analysis showing this was pitch-corrected (not auto-tuned to buggery like the live Conan O'Brien version) I was slightly let down, but only slightly because the passion and power is still there. It just means people trying to emulate this performance are attempting to reach false perfection.
I don't believe there is any music not corrected in post, it's the way of the industry to have perfect sound and effects to bring out the most emotion from the public. As for auto-tune in the live Conan show, I only heard one spot where that "might" have happened, second verse I think. But it could also have been his own amazing techniques coming into play. But honestly, I don't care what they do so long as I get to FEEL the music and emotion being put forth by the artist...and David does that so well.
You need to adjust your audio!. Your intro is like 5x louder than your reaction.
GUESS YOU KNOW BY NOW..WRONG VIDEO..CONAN LIFE..GO
Probably worst rendition I ever heard of this masterpiece
Wow…hugely powerful, emotional voice, sung dripping with anger that the warnings were not headed. Great symbolism used in the video And it’s Paul Simon’s favorite cover of his own work. And yet you have a problem with it. What is it I wonder? You obviously feel more qualified to judge it than the composer so please share your wisdom with the rest of us.
BTW…I was in college when the original came out snd loved it all these decades. I’m not a metal head. And yet I think Disturbed has made this song his own.
Oh My God!! This is terrible!!! Please tell me you haven't heard the ORIGINAL version of this MASTERPIECE by Simon and Garfunlel and please do a Reaction to it. Some songs: IT"S A SIN TO MURDER THEM!!!!
