- First time hearing The sound of the silence by Disturbed. Such an amazing cover! and his voice omg… the emotions… everything about this is just spectacular.
Thank you for watching and please subscribe to my channel and like this video.
I do not own any content in this video.
Finally someone figured out that in order to react to something, you actually have to shut up long enough to experience it in its entirety. Such a powerful version of this song deserves to be experienced emotionally not paused and talked over. Well done, you did yourself a favor.
Best resumed as "People hearing without listening" maybe ? hehe
Just to clarify for you, yes, her reaction conveys the emotions someone feels and the changes therein as they listen. TH-cam, however, strikes channels for not commenting continuously throughout a "reaction" video, which is why many channels don't "react" as authentically as she does.
Oh jesus christ yes! The number of times I've wanted to punch PEOPLE lmao
Jerry Walker So well said! Great observation of the mistake most "reactors" make.
@@arthurgangnon3504 you are 100% correct and thats why people shouldn't comment before knowing the rules and regulations of youtube!
There’s a folkloric character in Africa called the “town crier”, which is someone who speaks to the village when danger is coming. The town crier doesn’t scream, he doesn’t yell. The town crier just walks through the village speaking, and he has such a powerful hypnotic authoritative voice that people can’t help but to stop anything they’re doing and just listen to this commanding voice. It raises over any other voice. And it's the voice that the town would rise up to hear, as if they were being called by some powerful force that tunes their minds and souls and shuts down any other thought. That’s David Draiman. His voice is pure soul and will, powerful and with such authority. He means every word, and he makes you feel it in your guts. He touches your deepest strings as soon as he opens his mouth. You feel like you're being called. And this version is outstanding. Some people say you can listen to the original song as many times as you want, but you never hear the song until you hear this version, and that’s when you hear the song for the first time.
Even after all the years, you still have one of my favorite reactions. ❤
This isn't a song, it is an epic.
It is said that Simon & Garfunkel's version was a warning of what was to come if we didn't change our ways, & Disturbed's version, is a reaction of anger, because we did not heed their warnings......great reaction Ella 👍 This brought me to tears to, the 1st time I heard it.......so powerful, and passionate !!!
Amazing voice! From smooth velvety baritone to tenor, from clear as a bell to rasp and back on the proverbial dime!! Wow!!
I'm 73, and can remember from the early 1960's when the original writer, Paul Simon, released it as a folk song. It was so beautiful and serene back then. Of course, the Disturbed version of the song is so powerful! I really loved your innocent first-time reaction in watching it. I can't think of a more introspective, truth-seeking, or searching song in my life better than this. Thanks so much for your review.
I definitely agree. Thank You for watching:)
Skip Stromenger I remember in an interview Paul Simon said "that song belongs to David Draiman now"
@@Chief2Moon That actually fits the comment which is commonly used for this song about the first iteration being a warning while Draiman´s version is the anger of the warning not being heeded. What Paul is actually stating is that only anger remains.
Best reaction to the video of this song I’ve seen because she listens to the whole song before making comments & therefore gets the brilliant way it grows verse after verse. Too many others miss that phenomenal aspect.
A Cover Turned Into A Total Master Piece... David Draiman's Voice Is Powerful And Wonderful As The Video Clip Is.
I never get tired of this song.
The sound of his voice.... on loan from God.... (the live on Conan version will show you how great he truly is =) Thank you...
And He is pleased!
I love the verson he does on Conan...you can really feel his true voice...
He was extremely sick on Conan O'Brien show. This is the official version.
I'm a huge Disturbed Fan and his voice is just Angelic!!
God: Do you want to sing like an angel, or a demon?
David: Yes.
It's just an explosion of emotional power in my opinion .its lovely to see somebody who gets it like I do .I've listened to it as least 200 times and I'm still addicted to how it makes me feel ..nice reaction vidio
I tripped over this video as I sit locked down today in the US because of Covo-19. Thank you, you made me smile today, you're a gift as I sit in the sound of silence here in the USA. Cheers from Wisconsin.
Wi reacted the way you did........strong voice.....I have watched it at least 500 times.
I loved your reaction. Watching the song move you was amazing. This song is so damn powerful. The message is just as, if not more relavent today as to when it was written in1964 by Paul Simon. Great video.
What’s lovely about your reaction is to see that we all feel the same upon our first-hearing of this beauty. (gobsmacked - speechless) I’m old, so I remember when Simon & Garfunkel first sang this song to us. That gentler, acoustic-experience, has affected me my whole life since. THIS cover is a, “You were warned, why didn’t you listen?”, follow-up by a very different, contemporary artist. Sort of a, “Can you hear me now?”, moment. Holy cow!!
never realized how awesome David Draiman was until I was a video of this song a few months ago. This dude has such range and a raspy quality he can turn off and on along with the power, just awesome vocals
Awwww....her first Disturbgasim. How cute.
How can a person say they have lived if they have not heard this song a must hear song
A perfect beautiful reaction to one of the greatest tracks and voices of ALL TIME 〰️ 🎼🖤
Congratulations, great reaction. Simon and Garfunkel's version was a warning.
The Disturbed version is furious because the warning was ignored.
You summed that up perfectly!! When I was a teenager, Simon and Garfunkel released this song. It was a sad lament of the times we were in. This version is the anger that nothing has changed. I love both of them!
Out of all the reviews I've watched, I love yours the most. This is such a powerful cover to this song.
I am absolutely obsessed with this performance and crazy in love with the voice)
Me too. Its amazing because I don't like Metal or any of their other songs. But that he can do this with this song is mezmorizing! I loved your reaction! No words DURING the performance but we still knew exactly how you felt. Really nice job. Thank you!
you probably know by now that was David Draiman, whose voice is described as a "distorted operatic baritone with a percussive singing style", yes to me it was powerful and emotional also. In an interview once David said he's been surprised at all the reaction this song has been getting...not me though! have a great day!
You brought me back to the first time I heard this. I was in shock.
I like the fact that you know it was a cover and you know the original. Most react videos don’t know this. That totally changes how great his performance was in this song. The original was a great song and I think the cover was even better.
Watching this video makes me feel like I'm being strongly chastised by my father, but profoundly loved at the same time. Its almost spiritual.
Wow...Is all I hear after everyones first reaction....But I dont think there is any better response cause thats exactly how I felt....It just throws the words right at you leaving you speechless and wrestling with your thoughts and feelings to the lyrics of the song....Beautiful.
Lovely reaction to a wonderful cover version of this classic song. David Draiman's voice is a gift from God, with a range and a power to die for.
Jeff Stevens It truly is💕
If your 'gift' doesn't come from the devil it's obvious it's from God. Everyone is a gift & has God-given gifts, stop idolising!
I love this song. My favorite version of this is a live performance with Miles Kennedy.
Truly wonderful reaction video. You allowed yourself to be immersed within the web of his greatness without pausing it and ruining the context and the fluidity of the melody. Your eyes told us what and how you were feeling. You allowed it to build, then fall. Wonderful job.
Thank you!😊
I’m glad you didn’t interrupt the video. Thank you for that. I’ve listened to this song, I can’t even remember how many times. It still gives me the chills. I could see by your facial and body expressions that you were into the song.
Just seeing your channel for the first time. Thank you for not talking, or pausing. You saved your reaction until the end; but we could certainly see your reaction in your face and body. Very nice job.
Ella you are the person I was waiting for as a reactioner ,the perfect person,why?.As Jerry mentioned earlier you did not stop the song and by doing this you allowed yourself (and us who love that song ) to Feel the dramatical crechendo of the history of the song.By your body language you showed us the emotianal impact of that great song on you.Thank you and will fallow you.
In my opinion (as with that of others) your video reaction to this song is among the best. You've given the song&your own honest reaction the fairest chance to display themselves far above so many other such videos. You actually listened...this has placed you high above the many others.
With the greatest of respect to Paul Simon and Art Garfunkle, their orignal verison of "The Sound of Silence" is not a patch on the Disturbed version, which is much darker and more powerful.
I think this version truly shows the power of Paul Simon's songwriting.
I think you exaggerate! It is simply that this song is for this age, while the original is from it's own age. I would say that this cover is very good, but cannot be remotely compared to Simon and Garfunkel's masterpiece. I've listened to the original many thousands of times in my lifetime and still have to sit and listen to the whole thing when I hear it. As good as this cover is, it isn't in that league, while he isn't in the same league as Art and Paul.
The first time I heard this band and his voice it was something I haven't heard in a long time there's only been two bands that's been on this level and vocalists who have been on the same realm if that makes any sense to you? Number one was Pantera and Phil onsomno his voice can go from aggressive heavy metal dominating sound up in your face to a soft clean Harmony voice and that's freaking very hard to do especially in the same song and then there's Disturbed and this guy absolutely one of the best that I've ever heard....let's not forget the band too the band what makes the music
This is how you tell a story via a song and vocals. Just superb!
I hope you have watched them sing this song live on the CONAN show. That is a perfect version of the song and so beautiful.
Love your reaction. Disturbed are awesome. I've had the pleasure of hearing this live. Davids voice is something else.who said rockers only scream and can't sing?
It’s being like being in the presence of greatness. Yes I agree it was magic.
I knew your reaction was good when your breathing changed and started to get deeper and faster. His voice is like no other, one of the great voices in the world
he is mezmerizing.......................the bass drum pounding 2 times is powerul...................the orchestra music is perfect for background
The song is a masterpiece. This band will never be able to top this it just blew my mind with unexplainable emotions it almost like something supernatural going on.
i am each day more convict that i have lived on the right time. 60s and 70s. Thank you all Hippy generation.
But it's the next generation who interpret the meaning and provide the light...All respect to the original singer/song writers. There are many examples of this, and to that I say, music is timeless.
The meaning was there. we knew already. But it applies more to today´s generation than mine.
We were visionaries.
Wonderful to see your natural reaction and a common theme Is the power of his voice and people feeling overwhelmed by it, it’s the purpose of his version to wake us up!
Thank you for listening to the entire song and not saying anything , your face said it all, that's how we all react the first time
I can see you were visibly moved David has a phenomenal voice beautiful reaction God bless
Thank you so much Ms Cavinica for your wonderful reaction to this marvelous rendition of this song by Disturbed! i very much enjoyed how you responded by your beautiful facial expressions to boot! keep up the good work! Take care and God bless!
He says it all, blew me away.
Thanks fror good reaction..couldnt take my eyes from you..very expreshionell..have good😊👍
I go a lot by facial expressions, you were marvelous. I am always glad to see someone react to this song as I did. Not just the first time, but every time I listen. I'm an older man that has seen a lot. This song really grabs me by the heart by its truth. At the conclusion it's hard to catch your breath. You should listen to the original by Simon and Garfunkel from 50 years ago. Completely different but just as meaningful.
Thank you for your video, I’ve listen to this song hundreds of times, Something about it really brings out emotions. Everyone interprets the meaning differently and I don’t really want to know the intended meaning. Watching your reaction I could see it was hitting your heart and your reaction was real. It’s emotional just watching someone experience this powerful song. Thank you!
you are absolutely right....he sings with such power and intensity....the song just grabs your attention and it tugs at your insides. I love this version of the song. Another great version of this song was done by Todd Hoffman...check that one out!!!

3:16 The exact same reaction I had the first time I heard this song. By far the best cover I have ever heard. I am glad you didn't ruin the experience for yourself by constantly pausing the song.
I'm 74, Had the Simon and Garfunkel original back in the day. This is one of the best covers I've Heard. Your reaction without constantly pausing, just got you a new sub. Just a suggestion, Check out "Pentatonix" Same song. Actually anything they do. Think you'll enjoy!
as someone else commented on one of this song's reaction videos, the original by simon and garfunkel is a whispered warning. this? is a battle cry. your reaction was beautifully done. thank you.
I've heard the original by Simon and Garfunkel for decades, grew up to it. Covers seldom are better than the Originals to me. But sweetness my reaction was like yours just with tears. This video would have scared the shit out of people back then and would some old conservatives today. Thank God for progress! They made it a new song.
Was waiting for your facial reaction when he really lets loose, you failed to disappoint. I was 15 years old when this song came out and it blew me away then. David Draiman has taken it to a new level and Paul Simon, who wrote and performed it originally, congratulated him for it. That the song has had a similar effect on you, gladdens my heart. Thank you.
simon and garfunkel sent us a message on social behavior,disturbed are pissed because we didn't listen"
Exactly my reaction. Just wow, its a freaking epic. The highest form of human endeavor, art in its pure form.
Nice reaction video. You did it right and your feelings showed through. You also are very easy on these tired eyes of mine.
Understand that the Neon god was at that time Television. Updated song and updated Neon god=smart phone.
Its about us talking past each other. About the things not said. Art Garfunkle was the prophet. Disturbed is the 2019 updated wake up call. I like this version better for our time. And I never cared that much about the lyrics till this cover. Now I am obsessed.
Check out the live version on Conan. Live is the true test. Plus the set and performance is world class.
Shaun Gisler It truly is! Yes, I will react to the live version😊
Have you heard the live version of Henk Poort in 'Beste Zangers'? IMHO it is even better than this one.
@@simonpgrootes9101 it's good but not even close to being better, but of course we all have differrent opinions.
@@mikearroyo3961 but your opinion is more valid than mine!
@@simonpgrootes9101 don't be hard on yourself, your opinion is just as valid as mine.
No thing as 'late'. It's really about you, discovering things that are new to you. There are decades of brilliant songs you can discover anytime, and more being created every day. It's never been easier to experience the greatest works ever created. Do a little exploring every day.
I am going to have to watch that again... 100%. Well said.
every reaction of this song at the end starts with wow, watched so many, everybody WOW (multiple times) and rightfully so
I truly love Disturbed's song "Hold onto the memories" also.
I hope you give it a reaction & review.
I grew up to the original Sound of silence , so when I first seen the video by Disturbed I was an immediate fan.
By FAR, the best rendition of this song.
Paul Simon wrote this in 1964ish..You heard the song but you didn't listen to the song. Paul Simon's version was the warning in 1965..Disturbed was the rage that no one listened and we are where we are today because people hear but they do not listen. Paul wrote about the future and it is here. Cell Phones..everyone's nose is in their phone. Internet , Remote everything, Video Games no one Listens anymore. Words of the Prophets are written on the subway walls and tenement halls. I knew when I hear Simon version he was trying to tell us things in 1965 . Listen listen close, do not just hear Listen.
you can feel it,,makes emotions come out..wonderful
Great reaction....such a powerful song & amazing vocal talent
I loved this song from the time I heard it as a 10 year old in the 70’s, and I searched for decades to find someone who could truly do justice to the Paul Simons words and ‘Disturbed’ finally delivered
Youre strong girl because I always cry when I listen to it...its all about faith.😘
Beautiful reaction! You were so true and genuine! 👍
There so must power in his voice can rock soul & mind ... beauty as it can be ... magic all around.
You should listen to "Henk Poort", same song
@@zezizarjaars not bad sound, Thank You .....
This guy is really good. He made the song his own.
Great artist !!! Sure you are more than willing to have his babies!
It rocks everybody's world the 1st time
Thank you for your reactions. I appreciate you not talking over this fantastic performance.
Wow ! Is right ,so powerful ,awesome !
I have watched lots of reactions to this video. Every one of them is similaŕ in many ways but I love the passion and raw emotion of yours. Nothing contrived.
A perfect reaction, you listened and then spoke with your heart ♥️. Do all your reactions like this and you’ll have
more subscribers than you can imagine ! Subscribed for this reason !
Wayne Denny Thank you so much❤️
Same here!! Pure honest reaction, no pauses. That's the way to do it!
Watch his singing it live on conan obryan its excellent
I love this reaction! What a wonderful beginning 💖
How genuine her reactions!
See how her face changes at the end of the song !! . Thats when you know someone has a powerful voice
WOW....And Thank You!! Enjoyed your honesty.
Such a great reaction uninterrupted
Notice the arch of musicians crossing the river to the people on shore holding sheet music. They need each other to end the silence. Music is the universal language.
This song is lyrical audacity, vocal audacity, and symphonic audacity! Said differently? It is magnificent!
Ella yours so far is the best reaction i've seen eor thhis video.i
OMG, the tissues I've 🤧 gone through since I discovered David Draiman and Disturbed performing their rendition of "The Sound of Silence" on April 29, 2024. That day I have to believe my spirit 🙏 guides (out of the blue) first led me to a cover video by Dan Vasc singing "Amazing Grace" which was phenomenal 👏 and then to the cover video of Disturbed and David Draiman singing this most POWERFUL, EMOTIONAL 😂rendition of Simon and Garfunkels "The Sound of Silence". NOTE: For those interested, here's some history on Paul Simon, who wrote the song in 1964. Watch their video from back then. It's a whole different vibes. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sound_of_Silence I'm 75 and was 15 when they released one of the most popular, iconic classical songs of our time during the 60's. It's amazing how relevant it is today. Actually, I feel it is even more relevant now more than ever, by how we're so attached to our electronics. Thanks, from Diane
Well done, Ella! God bless you!!
"Wow!" Yeah, that's most people's first reaction to this version. Even the pros are blown away. Disturbed touches that dark part of our psyche that desperately needs light.
Iove her reaction
I am so happy that you felt the power and the emotion behind David’s voice. The music was on point. Thank you for a wonderful reaction video. I am a new subscriber. I hope to see more reactions from you in the future.
A wonderful reaction. What a lovely young woman you are.
Haha...I just discovered it. The original never hit me like this version honestly. Glad you liked it, too!
There is only two words to describe David Draiman voice..... Heaven Sent
Draiman ist one of the most skilled singers i know. And he is a very gentle Guy. So many Storys how he and the Band cares about Fans and Guests on Concerts, Festivals and so on...
Loved your reaction.😘
If you haven't heard Disturbed and just now hearing his voice I suggest you guys listen to their albums cuz he and they got more and more to offer and you can ever imagine that is if you're willing to go outside the box
Disturbed is to The Sound of Silence as Johnny Cash is to Hurt.
Agreed, and I generally love NIN.
Well said
