This might sound weird but I'm so proud of you 😂 you pretty nailed the meaning of the song. It's a cover of Simon and Garfunkel written in the 60's. It is about modern technology impacting people actually communicating with each other. Great reaction 😁👍❤️
I swear, the squad is in my head. I was about to ask for this one! I found out, my dad was listening to this song repeatedly right before he passed, so, this is a hard one for me.
I thought I commented on this but couldn’t find it. Draiman was really ill during this performance, fever and all; that’s why he’s sitting. Please watch and comment on the the studio video released in 2015. Drives the emotion home. Get chills every time.
It's nice to see younger generations not stuck on on genre and willing to look and listen to all versions of music 🎶 In his film clip shows guitar and little kid finding sheet music 🎶 not understanding what they are
David Draiman is a vocal beast. This one is the cover of Simon and Garfunkel’s original. They also do a couple other covers of old school groups. They do Shout, by Tears For Fears. They also do Land Of Confusion by Genesis. Check out Stupified, Down With the Sickness(don’t do the video version as it will cut out a huge part of the song), 10000 Fists, Voices, The Game. All of them are bangers. I got to see Disturbed when they first hit the scene. I saw them in a little bitty auditorium and it was so cool to get to see them before they were huge.
Great performance, especially considering he was pretty sick from a cold and flu at the time! But I still love the official music video best, it is so much more intense and powerful.
I'm in the middle of writing a parody song to this called the sound of sirens and how I always get crazy flashbacks every time I hear them because I had a bad history of getting in trouble with the law back in the day LOL
For me, this group was an acquired taste, lol. This guy has a unique voice, that's for sure! I like a lot of their music. Great video and great channel! :)
@@baron7755 My friend, Simon and Garfunkel are one of the most important acts in musical history. If they hadn't written it, Disturbed wouldn't have been able to cover it. Respect the history!
Great reaction. I'm only sad that you hadn't heard the original version by Simon and Garfunkel from 1964 first. David Draiman is an epic performer and damn hard to beat live. This live performance is better than the S&G version and Disturbed's album version. I saw them and Stained and a bunch of other bands live at Bayside Park, Miami in 2001. Hard hitting, mellow in the feels Stained's "Epiphany" and "It's Been a While"".
Been to see him live 10 times I’m in my 60’s and I shall be there every time he hits Atlanta! Awesome Live they grab a hold of you with rawness, there is no other quite like Disturbed
LOVE this video and your reaction. I fell in love because of this video and when I went to check out more I discovered that they are a HEAVY METAL band. I NEVER liked metal of any kind. But…David Draiman, lead singer, sucked me in with his awesome voice. I now listen to most of their stuff. For some of their harder stuff…DOWN WITH THE SICKNESS…STRICKEN…STUPIFY…PRAYER. For more of their softer? stuff…HOLD ON TO MEMORIES (I suggest the official live video)…A REASON TO FIGHT…THE LIGHT. One more thing…has anyone suggested PENTATONIX? If not, you should check them out. HALLELUJAH is a great place to start, or DAFT PUNK. If you watch one their fan base, Pentaholics, should flock to your channel. If you choose to join us in the rabbit hole be prepared for a wild ride. Oh forgot. They have won 3 Grammys and are nominated for their 4th. They are world famous have 11 albums 7 are Christmas. Also…they are ACAPELLA, NO INSTRUMENTS!!! 🙏🏼please join us.
This is about humanity falling apart. When it was written, TV was the Neon God, more relevant today, texting= talking without speaking, our inability now to not want to hear any opinion that differs with ours=hearing without listening NEON GOD now = Cell phones, computers, ipads..iPad... we need to become more united to help our society to succeed. Great writing.
# of people bowing and praying to this Neon God we made > # of people bowing their heads to actually pray . P.S. Thanks to reactors that help keep the Neon God alive.
The Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel is sad resignation. The Sound of Silence by Disturbed is Dammit, LISTEN! ***** The Warning ***** "And the people bowed and prayed, to the neon god they made." ~ Paul Simon "And the people bowed and prayed, to the golden calf they made." ~ Old Testament
Ok, it’s time for more Disturbed, The Vengeful One. Also Hail to the King , Avenged Sevenfold. The public needs your reaction to these. Whenever I need a quick laugh I return to your reaction for Freak on a Leash, hilarious.
This song was written before cell phones and computers ect...but I think God gave the original writer a vision warning about how people will be addicted to devices with what song says about eyes were stabbed with neon light. If you listen to it and keep in mind how long ago it was written and the lyrics maybe you would agree. I grew up without all the tech. It is completely different now the way people don't communicate. Always looking down at some sort of device. Just my opinion though...🤗
He is professionally trained grew up in a musical family. This is a cover by the way. The original artist has only liked their cover of his song to my knowledge. Original song is from the 60s about the Civil rights

This might be one of the most beautiful performances of a song in history
Love David's voice. He did so good on this song. Disturbed has some great songs.🥰❤❤❤❤
One of the best Cover's ever of any song
His voice just grips your soul.... Every song he sings gives me chills. This is a Simon and Garfunkel original.
It's nice to see younger generations not stuck on on genre and willing to look and listen to all versions of music 🎶
In his film clip shows guitar and little kid finding sheet music 🎶 not understanding what they are
I can see that you appreciate this version so much!

and he did that SITTING DOWN! such power
One of the best covers ever! ✌❤🎶
The one thing that connects all of us is silence! Much love my brother! 🥰
He was so sick during this performance too. This song is amazing
They bring the original about a dystopian future...into that future. Chilling.
Great performance, especially considering he was pretty sick from a cold and flu at the time! But I still love the official music video best, it is so much more intense and powerful.
He performed that suffering from the flu. He has such a great vocal range from his classical training as a Cantor.
Yep the best venue 👍👍👍👍

You really need to hear the original version by Simon and Garfunkel- it's simply beautiful. What Disturbed did with it was magic
Simon and Garfunkel ain’t shit, this is Disturbed’s song now

He preformed this song with a full blown cold
I think Simon and Garfunkel we're talking about communication. I think Disturbed are singing about separating the people from music.
The Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel is sad resignation.
The Sound of Silence by Disturbed is Dammit, LISTEN!
***** The Warning *****
"And the people bowed and prayed, to the neon god they made." ~ Paul Simon
