That's the best cover hands down but Johnny Cash's cover of 'Hurt' is a close second. It is so good Trent Reznor the original singer/song writer admitted it was better. Well worth checking out if you get time. And I've watched literally hundreds of people reacting to Ren and you are my absolutely my favorite. What a gift you are. ♥
Trent said it's not his song any more after Cash's version. Trent said it's now Cash's song! I thought that was fabulous, as is the cover. Considering what it was wrote about and then the way the Johnny Cash version is done, giving it a whole new meaning.
❤ even though I've watched dozens and dozens of reactions of this song... It never gets old watching a person hear this version for the first time❤ I cry and get goosebumps every time lol❤
I cant stop listening..something has happened to me..i mean i cant stop listening..at the 72 hour mark and going strong..over and over.. the Universe has come up with something extraordinary..an anthem unifying A billion+ at a time when everywhere else we are torn asunder
Me too I just found this video by accident like Dec 18th 2024 or the 17th I am obsessed it speaks to my soul in a profound way I always cried at the original but this one truly makes me want to kneel on the ground and pray to God and cry.
I found it last week as well, I was a teenager when the original was released, but this version is something else, I can't stop listening to it, his voice is so beautiful
Absolutely NO AUTO TUNE!!! Poor guy was really sick at time. If you listen for it, you can hear some congestion during the performance, but he STILL killed it. Amazing guy and singer ❤
@@ReactADHD This is correct. Unbeknownst to him, as you said, they added a little auto-tune which he wasn't happy about. Done by the Conan sound team, not his guys. The amt. used was so little though, thankfully.
Yes, he found out about it and was proper angry! David was sick with the flu and had a fever of 102°F but he would NOT cancel his performance.. he is an amazing talent! I love your reaction to the videos, and, as of today, you have a new subscriber!!! 😊❤ Big ol hugs and love from MamaJane in South Carolina USA 🇺🇸
I read a comment on another site where this woman's uncle passed away, and he was a huge fan of Disturbed. They played this song at his funeral with David Draiman singing. It is beautiful! Just don't feel you're being morbid, I don't plan on having a funeral, obit or anything, but if this song was playing, I just may think twice about attending my own ceremony!
I saw them live 2 years ago and when David started singing this, the audience were crying and singing along. Of course I wept too. He sang it Metal mode lol. Beautiful show. Great reaction ❤❤
Thank You for an amazing reaction! Disturbed's version and the imagery on the video brings the song home. It is a powerful experience to watch and listen to it; as well as interpret it to modern times. It's really frigging awesome!
I discovered this song TODAY! yours is the 5th reaction video but the most VISCERAL and i too decided i want this song played at my funeral! The way you react is fabulous! Like his vocals were assualting you in the best possible way in the music video...both performances are awesome...what a talent....i think this cover is even better than the original...the emotion, the voice, the video, the performance..WOW WOW WOW!
Lol, this is great. I'm loving watching your reaction to this. It had the same affect on me, it completely blew me away and became my #1 song. It's like it's not even the same song that Simon and Garfunkel wrote and sang. This version has the true emotions boiling over in it. I now have the utmost respect for Disturbed and the lead singer. Their cover of a much loved song for so many years was done with so much class and respect that even Paul Simon complimented them on it. Amazing and beautiful.
I have no words to describe how this man makes me feel while he’s singing and the visuals are out of this world. My son is a massive fan of disturbed and i never really got it untill now, what a voice and i told my son the exact thing you just said- I want this version of the song played at my funeral ❤️
He was sick with a 102° F temp during this performance. He hates this version because of the auto tune. Also why he was sitting. Thank you for doing both versions in one, loved your reactions
I'm not really a fan of Disturbed, but this is one of the best covers i've ever heard and have watched and listened to both versions hundreds of times at this point. Your react when he goes off toward the end was so great, subscribed to your channel today. Keep the vids coming, i'll keep watching.
Thank you so much for subscribing! I'm thrilled to hear that my reaction resonated with you. Your support means a lot, and I can’t wait to share more videos with you!
Simon Garfunkel told David Draiman from Disturbed that this was his song now just like Bob Dylan told Jimi Hendrix that All Along The Watchtower was his song after the cover he did
Why is this, Dec. 25th, 2025 - the FIRST I'm hearing this version! He ROARS, like a LION. I cant get tired of listening!!! My funeral song too! Lori - Iowa
David had the Flu and a fever in this performance. He was sitting down because he felt weak and refused to cancel the performance. He has amazing dedication to his art.
@@reggiefokes6677 One should always confirm their assumption before posting something like this. ...For instance, this Reaction contained reactions to BOTH the Music Video AND the Live Performance.
David was terribly sick that night, thus the reason he is sitting. He told them NO autotune but they put it in anyway, worried he may not be able to hit or hold the notes because of how ill he was. He was FURIOUS when he realized what they had done.
You, my friend, get it! Those words have always been so powerful to me. Now the voice matches. Don’t get me wrong, I was front row center in 1969 for the S&G concert. They have my heart and soul.
Oh my. Both versions. What an unexpected treat! Thank you!! I get a gut punch reaction every time I play this on my playlist. I think it's an empathy meter.
wanna really blow your mind, find David's a capella version of sound of silence. that one really gets me every time. ths really is the best cover of any song ever.
I loved the live version, BUT I feel the graphically produced one is vital to intensify the meaning of the lyrics. I am so happy you showed both versions! I loved your reaction video. I was floored the first time and everytime watching and listening to his cover video. Amazing. ❤
I first heard this driving a lorry through the centre of Bath and it effected me that much I nearly rear ended a bus! Had to pull over and take a breath and listened to it in repeat the rest of my shift
IMO the video represents the ability of music, through musicians, to spread the message of the people, those that aren't listened to, to the masses in hope of spreading a hope or dream & to those that do have a voice or power to influence change. The original WAS a warning of disconnecting from each other & the need to connect while this version is a wake up shout (as you said) in anger that we have not listened to that (now) 60 year old warning & are now more disconnected than we have ever been & becoming even more disconnected while we ironically have the ability to be so much more connected so easily.
Ps...in comments on other reaction videos i read that he was ill in the live version, he was running a fever of 102 and had passed out earlier and that was why he was seated....
I've seen this song by Disturbed both on Conan live and the video many, many times in the past 3 years. I like to watch it as reaction videos because it's so fun to watch young people enjoy this song from S & G back when I was a kid. Disturbed does it better, I must admit. Powerful.
That's what I thought! When I voted for the konan version and saw I was getting out voted, I thought ahh shame. Now having watched the reaction, I'm glad he did both versions.
Really really loved your reaction❤ you made me getting excited as I did the first time I heard the song years ago. I've heard it about a thousand times since and it still gets me every time
I just watching people like you viewing for the first time is wonderful at the reactions. I cant stop watching it either. I dont like heavy metal at all but this is so like a addict.
THIS is Goosebumps Music. David Draiman is a classically trained singer, he is capable of much more that just raspy heavy metal. And we can hear it here, it is so beautiful and haunting. When Paul Simon watched that live version in the Conan Show, he really loved it. 150 M views ! One comment reads: "One of the best live performances ever in TV history." Well, imo actually one of the BEST covers of ANY song EVER.
CUANDO SE TOCA Y ARAÑA EL ALMA HUMANA Y LA TRANSFORMA, SE MODIFICA EN HUMILDAD. SU VOZZZZ TAN INCREIBLEMENTE ÚNICA MARAVILLOSA E INIGUALABLE NACE DE LO MÁS PROFUNDO DE LOS SENTIMIENTOS. DEBERÍA SER ESCUCHADA EN TODO EL MUNDO. ES MUUUY PODEROSA. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤DESDE ANDALUCÍA (ESPAÑA).
¡Gracias por compartir tus pensamientos tan profundos! Es increíble cómo la música puede tocar nuestras almas y transformarnos de maneras tan poderosas.
I love Simon and Garfunkel! Art has the most angelic voice and I love the original! However I think I love this more! His voice is amazing and I only heard of Disturbed about 18 months ago when I saw someone react to it! I was gobsmacked! I am old and I grew up on Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, Heart etc… Something I would love to see you react to was a collaboration between Disturbed and Ann Wilson of Heart called “Don’t Tell Me” the video came out about 9-10 months ago and it is amazing! I think she was 72 or 73 at the time and she still sounds great! Loving your reactions! ❤️🔥✌🏻🫶🏻
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! It's amazing to connect with someone who appreciates both the classics and the new interpretations. I’ll definitely look into that Disturbed and Ann Wilson collaboration-your enthusiasm is contagious!
You’re my new favorite find!! I absolutely LOVE that you did both versions. The way they took this song and just ATE it up!! It 100% is the BEST cover - ever! Cheers!!
Great reaction!!! It's one of my picks for my cremation party!!! It has the history of Simon and Garfunkel but David made it his own with this version. I absolutely relate to darkness being my friend. And wandering streets as if in a dream and feeling so alone!
Your reaction was amazing! I felt your energy, and I felt like I just left the gym!🤣😂🤣😆 Great reaction! S&G's version was a warning that we are growing apart due, in part, to technology and that we need to learn to communicate our feelings and stop relying on material things to appease us. Wake up! Disturb's version is basically rage that we didn’t heed the warning in the 60's and now, 60 years later, we are even more attached to our "neon gods" internet, texts, emails, buried in our cell phones and communicate even more poorly than during the 60's with the civil unrest and the Vietnam war. Television, back then, was the 'neon god' that everyone paid attention to and paid less attention to humanity😢. We just don't get it! I'm 63 and, admittedly, never realized the meaning of the song, but David's delivery of the message really drove it home! I get it and I hope we all can wake up in time! Feelings and emotions are conveyed through music. In the video, the musicians on the left bring their instruments across the channel to the people with the sheet music on the right. A nice metaphor for the message that S&G were trying to convey. In the video, we don't see the boat meet up with the musicians, but, maybe, someday we will!😢 Thank you for sharing your reaction😊❤!
I truly appreciate your kind words! It’s great to know that the energy I felt resonated with you and sparked such deep reflections on the song's meaning.

Well worth checking out if you get time. And I've watched literally hundreds of people reacting to Ren and you are my absolutely my favorite. What a gift you are. ♥
@@Danao-bn7db ill defo check that out! Thanks for your amazing support! It means more than you could know
Trent said it's not his song any more after Cash's version. Trent said it's now Cash's song!
I thought that was fabulous, as is the cover. Considering what it was wrote about and then the way the Johnny Cash version is done, giving it a whole new meaning.
If im not mistaken, Paul Simon commented on their cover and sai..."its your song now" what an f'ing complient!!!!!
@@leonantoniou6192 ❤
I am addicted to watching reaction vids to this
bless you!
Me, too!
Me too!!
Ditto
I am seventy years old and I can’t stop watching this video, I love Disturbed
David was actually very sick before the Conan performance but didn't want to cancel. That's why he sat down and the warble.
❤ even though I've watched dozens and dozens of reactions of this song... It never gets old watching a person hear this version for the first time❤ I cry and get goosebumps every time lol❤
You not alone. I heard you!🎉
The great part of 1st time reactions is us viewers get to vicariously relive the first time we heard these songs
I am glad it does!
The first time I heard this, I could feel his breath on the back of my neck. Just incredible.
Yes indeed. I wrap around monthly to my top songs and new 1st time reactors to them
Is so addictive right?
I cant stop listening..something has happened to me..i mean i cant stop listening..at the 72 hour mark and going strong..over and over.. the Universe has come up with something extraordinary..an anthem unifying A billion+ at a time when everywhere else we are torn asunder
Me too I just found this video by accident like Dec 18th 2024 or the 17th I am obsessed it speaks to my soul in a profound way I always cried at the original but this one truly makes me want to kneel on the ground and pray to God and cry.

9:07 David was in the hospital with the flu the day before of this performance. He still had a fever when he performed this
the live is totally AMAZING OMG can you i magine being there I would have been on my knees crying !!!!
I love that you did both in one go... Best cover ever.. 😎😎😎
God: "Do you want the voice if an angel or a demon?" David: "Yes!!!!"
This is one of those moments we're I want everyone to experience the brilliance of this moment
Paul Simon said that it was the best cover he has ever heard.
David Draimen trained as a Cantor at his Jewish day school.
Absolutely NO AUTO TUNE!!! Poor guy was really sick at time. If you listen for it, you can hear some congestion during the performance, but he STILL killed it. Amazing guy and singer ❤
actually there was in 2 places.... unbeknown to him and he was angry

I’m obsessed since I listen to this song. Maybe 4000 repetitions by now.
Not enough people do the back to back, well done sir
I read a comment on another site where this woman's uncle passed away, and he was a huge fan of Disturbed. They played this song at his funeral with David Draiman singing. It is beautiful! Just don't feel you're being morbid, I don't plan on having a funeral, obit or anything, but if this song was playing, I just may think twice about attending my own ceremony!

Sounds like David's voice could make a statue cry! I guess we all need a little emotional rollercoaster from time to time! This was unreal!
@@ReactADHDIt’s going to be my funeral song too
@@ReactADHDsorry, another message. David was so sick when he did the live version. What a man !!❤ and band 💜
I’m finally getting to see them in May at the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento next May. Can’t wait!!! 😊
@@suemoore6445 NICE!!
It's so amazing. I too am having it at my funeral.
Awesome reaction! I never get tired of watching this performance. Epic!!
The only difference between your reactions and mine, the tears pouring down my face and a sid layer of goosebumps! ❤
Thank You for an amazing reaction! Disturbed's version and the imagery on the video brings the song home. It is a powerful experience to watch and listen to it; as well as interpret it to modern times. It's really frigging awesome!
I so wanted to hate this, because I grew up listening to the original, but I can't. Absolute chills!
In the live performance David was battling with a nasty cold, you have to give him kudos for singing through this.
I discovered this song TODAY! yours is the 5th reaction video but the most VISCERAL and i too decided i want this song played at my funeral! The way you react is fabulous!

The wobble was no auto tuned it was his emotion for the song coming through
He blows me away with this song. . ❤
He is a great singer. ❤
I have no words to describe how this man makes me feel while he’s singing and the visuals are out of this world.
My son is a massive fan of disturbed and i never really got it untill now, what a voice and i told my son the exact thing you just said- I want this version of the song played at my funeral ❤️
That song was made for him!! Yeah it goes hard....lol so beautiful ❤❤
He was sick with a 102° F temp during this performance. He hates this version because of the auto tune. Also why he was sitting. Thank you for doing both versions in one, loved your reactions
I've never gotten cold chills through an entire song before until now,WOWSERS!!!!!

I like metal but honestly couldn’t do disturbed , this is my favorite ❤️ version
Chills up and down my spine. Every time I watch this video.
He was very sick during live performance. He has an amazing voice ....after 8 years I still get goosebumps 🩷
I still listen to it. And Disturbed. He was ill in the live on Conan. Still great.
Simon Garfunkel told David Draiman from Disturbed that this was his song now just like Bob Dylan told Jimi Hendrix that All Along The Watchtower was his song after the cover he did
Both versions are great, but i really like the video version the best. ❤
This is perfection!
Amazing!!!!!
I found myself holding my breath. FANTASTIC!!!!
I've listened to that almost every day for several years. It helps keep me sane.
wow amazing!
Yes that’s how you rock a cover song .🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Your reaction was priceless. The gasping, the goosebumps. Same as I felt when I first saw it. You’ve earned a subscriber. 👍🏼
Thanks for subbing, it was a great track!
David takes his vocal range/tone from the basement up to the top floor
absolutely!!!
The lead singer has a proffesionaly trained voice
awesome!
He was a Jewish cantor
Why is this, Dec. 25th, 2025 - the FIRST I'm hearing this version! He ROARS, like a LION. I cant get tired of listening!!! My funeral song too!
Lori - Iowa
I've heard this song dozens of times and I still get goose bumps! Phenomenal!!
Amazing~!
This drives home a point that I especially feel now.
David had the flu during this performance 😢. Ridiculously amazing 😊❤
Unreal!
Paul Simon has (or had) this pinned to his Facebook page. He absolutely loves it.
He was sick during this show but did not want to cancel. He is an amazing singer and person.
This reaches right into that darkness within ourselves we retreat into when the world has been too cruel and reminds us we are weak
David had the Flu and a fever in this performance. He was sitting down because he felt weak and refused to cancel the performance. He has amazing dedication to his art.
This is the original video, not the live performance.
@@reggiefokes6677 One should always confirm their assumption before posting something like this.

This was epic live. I saw disturbed a few months back.

I love Disturbed. And love his cover of this song. And the Pill Colin's song. He is so talented
Disturbed is such a great underrated band
I will defo have to check more of their stuff!
He had the flu when he did Conan. God bless him. He's a trooper.
You, my friend, get it! Those words have always been so powerful to me. Now the voice matches. Don’t get me wrong, I was front row center in 1969 for the S&G concert. They have my heart and soul.
S&G was the warning, Disturbed is the consequence.
Oddly ive never heard this its as amazing as people have raved about it thanks ❤
I will have to check you out more. I had the same reaction three years ago when I first heard it. This version stands alone on its own.
Oh my. Both versions. What an unexpected treat! Thank you!! I get a gut punch reaction every time I play this on my playlist. I think it's an empathy meter.
Glad you enjoy it!
Another Disturbed song you might like is The Light. Btw, i loved your reaction 😊. Please react to The Light 🙏
It’s about not seeing the homeless, hurting people
I love Disturbed and this version is so haunting
Haunting? More like spine-chilling! Disturbed really knows how to send shivers down our spines, doesn’t they?
wanna really blow your mind, find David's a capella version of sound of silence. that one really gets me every time. ths really is the best cover of any song ever.
So POWERFUL! He had the flu!!!😢
I loved the live version, BUT I feel the graphically produced one is vital to intensify the meaning of the lyrics. I am so happy you showed both versions! I loved your reaction video. I was floored the first time and everytime watching and listening to his cover video. Amazing. ❤
Listen to his version of tears for fears Shout 😊😊
I first heard this driving a lorry through the centre of Bath and it effected me that much I nearly rear ended a bus! Had to pull over and take a breath and listened to it in repeat the rest of my shift
wow.... lol no more driving and listening for you
So your saying this song made you want to kill people that use public transport?!? WT actual F dude? U probably shouldn't post that 😜
The very best singer for this song.The very first singer for this song the best❤
IMO the video represents the ability of music, through musicians, to spread the message of the people, those that aren't listened to, to the masses in hope of spreading a hope or dream & to those that do have a voice or power to influence change.

EXTREMELY TALLENTED ,GENIUS AND BRILLIANT IS ALL I CAN SAY
I agree. Normally I don't like heavy metal stuff but this is just SUPERB!! I've often listened to it on TH-cam, just sensational!! 👌👌👌
Glad you enjoy it!
David Draiman, lead singer of Disturbed, was formally trained as a cantor
Thanks for sharing that! It’s always interesting to learn more about an artist’s background and how it shapes their music.
Yes and he still takes voice lessons to this day!
I feel that the Simon and Garfunkel version was a warning to society and the Disturbed version is angry because people didn't heed the warning.
I'm sure others will tell you, but David was quite ill that night on Conan, but insisted on performing.... and still sounded amazing!
I wish I could express how amazing it was to watch you experience this song. ❤ I loved this reaction
Thanks so much!
Possible the best reaction (and I've seen sooooo many) to this version of this song I think I've ever seen. Magnificent, and subbed! 🔥🔥
Thanks so much!
Very good reaction, dude.
Glad you enjoyed it
I always thought this song needed to be sung like this
Ps...in comments on other reaction videos i read that he was ill in the live version, he was running a fever of 102 and had passed out earlier and that was why he was seated....
Dude you are real,🔝👏🏻👏🏻!!
He had the flu!! BTW…he is classically trained! My favorite cover of all time ❤
