It's crazy that two bands that people thought were throwaway nu-metal bands back in the late 90's/early 2000s would be absolutely amazing Live. Disturbed's David Draiman and Staind's Aaron Lewis both have powerful and amazing voices live.
Also, it's pretty incredible that your video is sitting at 4.8k likes and 0 dislikes. I have the google chrome extension that shows the dislikes and thankfully nobody disliked this video. Your content is great. Loved your Smashing Pumpkins and Dream Theater reactions.
Watch Disturbed Sound of Silence Tribute to 9/11. It will blow you away !
Watch the 9/11 Tribute put to this song !!! It will blow you away !
I’m in my 40’s, the Gen that knew the great rock bands from the 60’s to the 80’s, the beginning’s of rap to alternative and the rise of country to pop music… every time I hear this song it’s the most visual song I’ve ever heard and I’ve heard the original.. the verse “ when my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light that split the night” just leaps out of the radio. like watching an exact movie production of your favorite book. Just really puts me in that space.
Paul Simon sent David a letter telling him he now owned the song. He said David’s version was pure.
Sorry, but that never happened. Simon reached out through social media and said "Saw you on Conan last night. Nice!". That's it.
As others have said, he was pretty sick that night and that just shows you how incredibly talented he is.
so why repeat the comment
@@brucedickinson12 because repetition is the best way to get facts into stupid peoples heads
@@brucedickinson12 you comment reads as repeated to me 🤔
Sick and they wanted to put autotune on his mic and he refused
@@robocles oh yeah, I forgot about that. I guess he was quite irritated by the suggestion. Good for him.
This is one of the most moving live performances ever for me. I love it more than the studio version for sure 🖤
Simon and Garfunkel wrote a prophetic song about what could happen... Disturbed turned it into a reflective song of mourning because it DID happen.
Perfectly summed up.
Paul Simon, wrote a prophetic song, that actually happened. Art Garfunkle did not write it. Paul wrote it alone, in the dark, in the bathroom, one night.
Well stated.
This.....all of this. Simon & Garfunkel wrote a warning. Disturbed added the context of a call to action. Both songs are epic, and I can't call one a 'favorite version', but this performance should help one find the motivation to do what they can to enact a positive change.
Wow so true 🫵
He was sick, sat through the entire song, and still delivered a powerful performance. David is phenomenal.
He was very ill that evening, couldn't even stand. But could sing like that, amazing.
Disturbed earned a 2016 Grammy Award nomination for this performance!
Wait, he didn’t win? What in the hell beat this?
David was very ill with the flu and had to be medicated to breath before this performance. Awesome performance!!!!
I’m 63 yrs young & Disturbed’s version hit me harder then S&G’s because David Draiman made it all the more easy to understand! I’m a huge fan of Disturbed & this made me fall more deeply in love with them! 💛
The absolute raw power in his voice is astounding and significant. His version is the warning where the original was a foreshadow of what was coming.
WOW, This song/performance Never
Gets old. I can't help but fight back
Tears every time I hear this. His voice is
Powerful but Angelic!! Thanks 👍
I’m glad I’m not the only one who has to fight back tears. Sometimes, depending on the persons reaction I will just cry. ❤
This man's voice has a "command presence" (Sound of Silence). Anyone, regardless of music genre preference, will likely acknowledge, him singing this song, easily garners an emotional response. Even those who do not or cannot understand the lyrics will likely feel some type of common powerful emotion. This rendition to me is awesome.
This man is one of few that brings on the goosebumps and tears with his voice. Fucking amazing. There's a video of him singing this without music... Holy shit.
You gotta add “White Rabbit” to songs you listen to with isolated vocals. Amazing.
@@rf.6850 I will check it out, thanks for the suggestion.
Yes, they brought the battle drums. Those drums are actually called Timpani. They are awesome percussion instruments.
Timpani. I couldn't remember that word. But knew it. Thank you, avisbc.
Not a musician so I have always known them by their common name: kettle drums rather than the official Timpani.
@@hectorsmommy1717 Same here, thanks for the correction. Timpani.
also known as kettledrums.
The sound of Timpani is incredible. Once you hear it, you can't mistake it for anything else...
The final "sound" and that echo gives me chills every time
Same
David Draiman is classically trained, and in his younger years, he was classically trained as a cantor, who is someone that sings liturgical music and leads prayer in a synagogue. But after being expelled from three different yeshivas and blowing up his high school rabbi's van, Draiman wasn't cut out for the seminary, and the rest is heavy metal history 😎
And David Draiman(lead singer) was actually really sick here. Can you believe it? Loved your reaction here, Polo. 😊😁❤
Yes he was but a true person stayed to his obligation
If you've heard a lot of his songs before and are used to his normal voice, he sounds noticeably congested and inflamed here.
But a pro's gotta do what a pro's gotta do. The show must go on.
@@NoActuallyGo-KCUF-YourselfNot to mention you can clearly hear the autotune.
Draiman voice is like a physical embrace. Almost like the listener becomes a child again and his voice pulls you up on his lap wraps itself around you and makes everything warm and safe for a bit. unconditional. This performance lets us hide there for just a few.
Well said!
Even more impressive, David was sick during this performance. If you listen closely, you can hear his voice crack one time during the entire song. But, he recovered flawlessly.
So, I guess you could say, he got down, with a sickness.
How does this only have 2 likes?!?!
I’ve seen Disturbed live in concert in 2019 and man it was incredible. He sang this song and I have to say hearing it live in person is absolutely amazing. He has one of the greatest voices in music history not just in rock/metal.
Almost, nearly, but not quite even close to Sebastian Bach
100% I seen that same tour... on my birthday. I was always a fan of Disturbed but after that concert and this song live its so much more.
I’m 😅😅😅
Another great live performance by a powerful singer with an orchestra is "A Whiter Shade of Pale" by Procol Harem, live in Denmark 2006. Also great is "Nights in White Satin" by the Moody Blues" live at the Royal Albert Hall in 2000. Thanks for the great reactions!
Add "Words Darker Than Their Wings" live at Royal Albert Hall by Alter Bridge. Miles Kennedy shows off his incredible range.
We knew you'd love the live version even more. I'm addicted to reaction videos of this phenomenal song. Great reaction :-)
I can sit up all night long and watch all the different reaction channels of people having their eyes widen upon hearing him, or jaws dropping. Leaving reviewers speechless or in tears. Same thing with Johnny Cash’s video for Hurt.
Disturbed doing this, Johnny Cash doing that, and Skynyrd doing Freebird live never ever gets old and gives me goosebumps every single time I hear them no matter how long or how many times I’ve heard them. It’s just a phenomenon reaction to me hearing these 3 songs.
You know what would be sweet? Disturbed do a cover of Bridge Over Troubled Water. Could you imagine how EPIC that would be???
The only version of any song that makes me begin to cry as soon as he starts singing. He is a true blessing in this world
Great reaction, as always brother Polo. Literally get chills every time I hear this, and I have heard it too many times to count.
David Draiman trained to be a Jewish Cantor. He was disillusioned with the Church and decided to do Heavy Metal instead. He has one of the most impactful voices I have ever heard and I'm 59. I've heard A LOT of music.
I'm 62, same sentiment. And yes, a LOT of music.
I am 64 this is the first time hearing him. I am blown away, I can't stop watching . He brought tears to my eyes, what a voice. I am in love.
My Son is a drummer. His first band was Heavy Metal so it's kind of ingrained in my DNA. DISTURBED is one of my absolute favorite groups.
I still get chills every time I listen to this song in the live performance. One of the best things I have found by watching reaction channel’s 😊❤
He does a live duet with Myles Kennedy that is even more mind blowing. There's an official one on the disturbed YT page.
I normally not a fan of live performances. I love this one and Phil Collins In The Air Tonight.
My best friend's son went to high school David Draiman. He does have a very powerful voice. That voice goes straight to the soul in his rendition of this song....at the end of this song, I have tears....
Sometimes a song is better when it's performed live..... this is one of those times.
THIS was the version I hoped you would here. The power. The poetry. The live performance. Draiman took it to it to the next level!
It gave this poet everything she could need to go along with the original version. So glad you reacted to it.
He's sitting down because he was recovering from the flu!
This band will be a deep rabbit hole for you!
A Reason To Fight
The Light
Hold Onto The Memories
Land of Confusion
are great ones to continue with!
Best live band I have heard. I had the fortune to feel the energy first hand many years ago. The crowd became one unit as it swayed around like an extension of the music they played. A true master at work. 10/10
God, this song gives me the chills! Hauntingly beautiful!
David can always sing live exactly like their records! The man has major talent, great range and awesome control. He can go from baritone to angelic tenor, to rasp/grit/distortion and back on a dime....which is not easy to do. Have seen Disturbed live twice.....they are amazing! Loved your reaction Polo.
Polo, this may surprise you but I think a third listen to this song is necessary. There is a live version at a concert and David Draiman invites Myles Kennedy on stage to sing with him and they harmonize together. I'll leave a link below, it is amazing!! You must check it out! Also if you are not familiar with Myles Kennedy, he is the singer of Alter Bridge and a dope singer! Would love to see you react to Blackbird.
th-cam.com/video/H3By4DZyTNM/w-d-xo.html
Love that version! But I’m a huge Myles Kennedy/Alter Bridge fan as well… I love it when David is introducing him and says, ‘Ladies and Gentlemen, to be the Art Garfunkel to my Paul Simon, please welcome- Mr Myles Kennedy!’ A very powerful performance!! 🤘🏼❤️
Holy crap, tears! That was beautiful
I think I've listened to this a thousand times.
me too. it deserve it.
This performance is unreal 💖💖💖 David draiman can sing anything, would love to see more reactions to disturbed as this is not typical of them.Songs like prayer, inside the fire (brutal/graphic video) down with the sickness are all awesome 🤘🎸🎶🤘🎸🎶
Be warned on Inside the Fire though. It deals with suicide. It is a great song and video though.
Hate to disappoint you but David removed his piercing a few year ago when he turned 45 because he said it was time to act his age. Paul Simon saw the Conan show and sent David Draiman an email shortly after, saying, "Really powerful performance on Conan the other day. First time I’d seen you do it live. Nice." Simon also made posts on social media about the cover. I don't recall him doing that for any other one!
I have heard this song so many times and EVERY TIME it gives me chicken skin and my eyes will tear up from the emotions evoked in this version. This voice is a gift to the world. ♥
Davis Draiman is so powerful in his delivery but yet so controlled.
I'm sure i've been beaten to the punch a thousand times, but the drums are timpani drums, aka kettle drums. I've honestly never been a huge fan of Disturbed. Great band, but I never found myself listening to much of their music. That said, part of what makes a song great is how it evokes emotion. I hear a song like this, and I feel the emotions he is trying to convey. I like the original, but it doesn't really make me 'feel' in the same way.
This is actually there best performance of this!
Best joke I have heard: When God was making David Draiman, he asked him if he wanted the singing voice of an angel or a demon. David said "Yes please!"
Great reaction.
Thank you Polo! As always, a superb reaction video! I agree that this is the best version if the song.
if you want something strong but different it would be grouplove, song is colours
I simply cannot get used to this song, be it live or otherwise. It is pure and full of emotion.
At least, it is for me. So incredible
In my view Disturbed sings the song as the words actually express. I never liked the SnG version (though it was their song) because the words and the way the song was sung didn't match up for me. THIS version does.
I was wondering if you were going to listen to this version!! Thank you Polo! Curious of your reaction.
Also, Daman was sick, factor in that! He is amazing!
Instant goosebumps with this song for sure. And yes he was sick while singing this. I've heard he was mad that they put a little auto tune over him but I can't even tell. This song is awesome
You can hear David's nasality in this as he was sick but Disturbed doesn't disappoint and this live version is almost as popular as the official video for it. It's a cover of Simon & Garfunkels hit from the 70s, I think. Everyone who loves the original loves this cover. They do amazing covers and original songs, just across the board.
Must be Conan’s highest rated TH-cam video
Please do more disturbed! The band is amazing. Stupify, down with the sickness, 10000 fists
I can’t wait to see you react to their other music!!! “Stricken” is a great song also Down with a Sickness & Stupify but all their songs are great!!!!!
Imagine being in that crowd to witness that!
The 'battle drums' are timpani drums. The Eagles did a version of Hotel California that used them too.
A lot of people think of the original version (S&G) as the 'warning', and Disturbed's version as the anger over people not heeding that warning. I do prefer this version over the original (but that deserves major kudos too)
Timpani drums have a pedal that adjusts head tension to change the tone of the drum(s). I played them in High School.
Thank you for watching it live. This was my first viewing of this band. I cried.
Just some FYI about this performance, David Draiman was fighting a cold when he sang this.
The Simon and Garfunkel version was almost a warning about people talking over each other and not listening to each other, while Disturbed's version is the reality of people talking over each other without listening.
The lyrics are the same... same message both times
@@robocles Same lyrics yes, but S+G was with acoustic guitars and very folksy, while Disturbed's version was loaded up with angst, and darkness. Sometimes how something is said matters as much as what is actually said.
Could you please check out... YOU WANT IT DARKER BY Leonard Cohen...?... HE'S AN AWSOME SINGER AND I WOULD JUST LIKE TO HEAR YOUR OPINION.
THANKS SO MUCH ALREADY! I'M LISTENIG AND WATCHING FROM GERMANY 🇩🇪 😁
Oh yes! Please!!!
Can you imagine being at that show, knowing that the musical guest is a metal band which you might just have to suffer through (if you don't like metal), and then hearing them play this masterpiece so perfectly. Jesus what a night.
heard so many times, seen so many reactions to it... still get chills every single time
I have seen Disturbed live a few times live. They are hands down one of the most consistent and talent live performers. They are amazing! I hope I get the chance to see them again one day.
Paul Simon was so moved at this interpretation that he put it on his website for all to hear. As for me, it simply made me weep.
You know what’s fun Bro???
I love watching multiple reactors to the same song like over and over all night long and watch their jaws drop, their eyes widen, their speechlessness or even brought to tears.
You should do reactions of other people doing reactions to the song lol.
Love ya Bro
Can we get a rage against the machine reaction or nonpoint
The people that do the singing for distuurbed,breaking benjamin, shine down, slipknot/stone sour, and Black Sabbath sound exactly like their amazing albums…. Live
Polo have you haven’t reacted to “RUSSELL WESTBROOK ON A FARM from LIL DICKY bro you have to hear this song …trust me!
I second this!
You're so spot on. I have had bands/artists that I listen to where I loved a song or two that can't perform it live to save their life. Just like you said, it was altered and produced with after-effects. It's a different thing to see someone deliver it live and my lord does David Draiman and the whole orchestra nail it.
To me, Disturbed’ version gives me a “ grab you by the collar and shake you “ vibe along with the goosebumps!
Disturbed and Muse are two bands that I fully believe sound better live than on record 💜🖤💜
Neil diamond..Holly Holy…
I just discovered your channel. I have reacted to this same song (internally)… but I love your reaction videos to songs. You seems so chill in front of a camera, and you’re low key funny. Like at the end where the battle drums hit again to end the song, and you grinned haha. You didn’t even mention the battle drums a third time, I just knew what you were grinning at. Anyways, keep up the music reviews! I dig it.
Bravissimo 😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻♥️♥️♥️♥️
This is by far the best version!!
Need to react to Disturbed "A Reason to Fight", the live version. It touched me in so many ways. Amazing song and video.
Hej Mozesz zareagowac na polskich wykonawcow takich jak Ochman,,Ligth in de Dark,, ,Bittersweet,, ,Wielkie tytuly,, Nastepny wykonawca to SOBEL ,,Drobna zabawa ,, , Pull Up ,, ,,Koronkowe majtki,, oraz Marcin Patrzalek ,,Kashmir,, Toccata,, To tak na początek Nie bedziesz zlowal Zaskoczenie murowane ,emocje murowane ,doznania luchowe murowane Oni są tak dobrze Czekam na opinię
You should react to "I WONT SEE YOU TONIGHT" by AVENGED SEVENFOLD!!!!!!
Yes David is a badass singer. I have seen them live like 5 or so times and meet him a bunch of years ago. He is so nice and likes meeting people.
His voice is so rich...
Your favourite verse has my favourite line: "And noone dare DISTURBED: THE SOUND OF SILENCE"... haha.. get it?
The lead singer was actually working on becoming a CANTOR before becoming famous
I couldn't tell you how many times I have heard the live as well as video...I prefer the live...doesn't matter he is SOOO great! What a voice! Brings me to tears...xx
Thank you for another great reaction I think you would like their song Down with the sickness but if you react to it find the uncensored version.
Love your reaction! This won is the best. Luv from Australia ❤️🎼❤️🎼❤️
They are 2 different songs....I believe a higher power influenced David Draiman to redo it....very spiritual. And deep. Touches the soul, more than Simon Garfunkle did the song.
David, lead singer, was really sick the night they were on Conan. He had a over 100 degree fever with a major sore throat. David had to really lean on his classical training to get through the performance. He’s so amazing. ❤ Paul Simon told David that he actually liked his version better. Love that. ❤ 🤟
Please check out Disturbed doing this live with Myles Kennedy (singer of Alter Bridge). Live in Houston.
David draiman introduced him as Garfunkel to his Paul Simon. ❤️
"How good is the band?" - At the start, with a performance like this, imagine the pressure on the pianist, not to F'it up! BTW, they are Timpani Drums....
I watched him sing it live with a huge crowd of lighters and phones lit I recorded it and cried at the same time it was so beautiful
Love your slogan ❤️ 💕
Be you. They'll adjust.
Ps also from Ohio 🙄.😆.
Dude. Ya gotta check out Kenny Rogers LIVE performance of his song written by Lionel Ritchie called "LADY"
LOL. I wanna see your reaction to Bruce Dickinson's voice. 🤣
🤘🏼😝🤘🏼 Iron Maiden
Respect to Simon and Garfunkel for the lyrics, but.. BUT.. Disturbed did it the justice it should've always had. So very powerful. I had heard this song throughout the years but this version made me cry
David earned his wings with this one, period.
I can listen to this song 6 or 7 times back to back. My chest tightens and I get a thrill tingle through my ribs as the song progresses to crescendo!! They can perform this song anywhere and still feels the same as the recording. A favorite song to start my workouts with!
@POLO REACTS
Quention.
I forget the term, but the little stick item swinging around.
Where did you get that?
I love it.
I find myself watching that while reacting to you.
Come on Polo,
your video clips are far too transparent. We can barely see a thing.
Other reactors are doing better.
Keep up!
We want to continue to like you best.
(BTW, They are kettledrums not battledrums.)
Great reaction to a great live performance.
Another great live performance - Paolo Nutini, "Iron Sky" Abbey Road sessions. Nowt held back: everything left in the performance.
Metallica - Live in Moscow, Russia (28-09-1991) Full Concert
