- If you've been on The Charismatic Voice long enough, you know that I love Disturbed's cover of "The Sound of Silence", and David Draiman's vocal artistry. As Disturbed is starting to tour later this year, I wanted to dig into more of their back-catalogue before listening to their new album. . . and this was on the top of your list!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Disturbed performing "Stupify" for the first time.

![[LIVE] : ONE ลุมพินี 69 | คู่เอก "กุหลาบดำ vs นาบิล"](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/PNM6U8e_HMo/mqdefault.jpg)
Imagine being able to listen to this again for the first time.
Yeah the whole album for the 1st time again. 😊. Great album.
Right??
That's a big part of why we're here - to live that first experience vicariously through someone else. We get to watch her fall in love with these great songs like we did. I mean, also for the in depth analysis that she provides with her extensive background, but also to see someone else discover the unbelievable power behind David's voice.
We basically get to do that with Elizabeth, her perspectives give you that fresh feeling again.
I wish I could. SO amazing.
We made her love metal. She made us love classical... We've come full circle... In love
It only takes 1 song, I honestly think anyone could get in to metal with the right intro song.
Would it be fair to say we've made "A Perfect Circle"?
@@MvZiCMaNCorrect
Lol I already loved classical but gotten bigger into Opera now
@@XankekMaster of puppets for me and probably half of the new fans
“It sounds like there’s this like monster that’s occasionally emerging…” perfectly encapsulates Disturbed 💯
I would say another great song to see him explore and blend his vocal palette a little more is “Inside the Fire.” It’s a gut-wrenchingly emotional song, and the vocals reflect it.
The entire album of this song (Inside the Fire) is a masterpiece
Inside the fire is a great song, but it is ROUGH to get through the first time if you actually listen to the lyrics, very powerful.... but painful.
@@donnysorrow3738 Even more if you watch the uncensored music video. I would love to see how Elizabeth reacts to that
I think if you managed to get him to " join you for tea", Elisabeth, you would find that David has had a very interesting, and difficult vocal journey story. He essentially had to relearn and teach himself to sing within his limits after incurring some vocal damage on tour. But he put in the hard work, dedicated himself to his craft, and became a better and healthier singer/vocalist for it. Thank you for always doing YOUR " homework", Elisabeth, and keeping an open mind, and appreciating the endless myriad of vocal talents, in all there wonderful varieties out there! You are a champion, and a sweet one too;). Happy Green Day!🍀
His story kinda reminds me of Jimmy Barnes.
Naw forget that. I want her to have tea time with The Guy. 🤘😄
Didn't he also suffer from really bad acid reflux? To the point where it scarred his vocal chords. I thought I remember reading that somewhere.
@@ryanhall2875 I think I also read that somewhere
@@ryanhall2875 yup, his stomach valve is basically eaten up by acid, he had a surgery to replace it... aaand it got damaged again. still he sings like no tomorrow for his brothers and sisters and that is super commendable.
Ever since she listened to their version of "The Sound of Silence", Her musical palette has expanded so much. It makes watching her react a true pleasure. You can see the barely contained joy in her eyes and smile as she ventures into unknown waters. It's why I follow and watch her videos.
Sound of Silence, the gateway song :D
Her Sound of Silence analysis was my first exposure to this channel and what got me to subscribe. :D
Big time. I only follow her because of these videos. I truly enjoy these.
me too
If you actually believe this is the first time she's ever listened to this song, you live in a world based in the naive.
ALL these TH-cam channels are completely contrived and staged to get the most viewers as possible.
I have a friend who has very large fishing TH-cam channel and he tells me how all this nonsense works.
Most of what you see is totally staged and rehearsed.
As others have already commented the word he's elongating at 15:45, which you came back to several times later, is: 'Tefached' which means be afraid, so not exactly about insanity but rather perhaps the consequence of it. That also explains the next part of the song: 'don't deny me, don't be afraid' which for non Hebrew speakers is easy to miss the reference. Oh and by the way, the way he sang the 'Tefached' is indeed in a very traditional Hebrew style which is commonly used in religious hymns and other traditional ancient songs. So you were indeed correct that he brought some of his Jewish heritage into the song without actually knowing it.
I always assumed he said "exhausted"
@@Anti-ProEntertainment I always thought he said "if I fade"
@@ludacrisbutler I can hear that too lol
I hadn’t seen this comment so I deleted my comment :) but I will add he’s saying you will be afraid and then he says darling don’t be afraid. It’s a dual personality
I always thought he was dragging out "defy me" or "deify me", cool to learn more after all these years
Diving deeper into Disturbed is always a win. “Prayer” and “Remember”, from the Believe album, still give me goosebumps twenty years later, especially the latter. The final track, “Darkness” gave a soft insight into the entirely clean singing David was capable of, and in my mind, acted as the precursor to the “Sounds of Silence” cover they nailed over a decade later. Speaking of covers, I hope this means we’ll get a breakdown of “Land of Confusion” in the not too distant future. Maybe even a dual breakdown, given that the og was by Phil Collins/Genesis. Comparing the videos alone would be a “riot”, nudge nudge 😉😉…
Wow I haven’t listened to Believe in probably 15 years, but your comment took me immediately back to the awesome chorus of Remember. One of their very best for sure! I know what album I’m jamming today
Oh man I haven’t thought about Prayer in a long time that’s a great song. Gonna pull that up now 😂
I would absolutely love it if you could reach out to David and see if he'd be willing to come on and do an interview/talk. I'm not sure what their tour schedule looks like this year but damn that would be awesome.
I believe she did sip “coffee or tea” with David.
@@jeffstumpf9129 Wait what?????
@@jeffstumpf9129 a quick search it’s not popping up if she did
TH-cam is a larger audience than a lot of people realize.with millions of viewers. It's the way things are now.
Yeah. I love that that this somehow could happen. : )
Nice. This was their first radio single and how a lot of OG fans discovered them way back in 2000
Yep, this was the song that introduced them to me. I still love the whole Sickness album, I went through a few copies back in the day moving them from my car to my computer to my bedroom, I was constantly playing it through on repeat.
Remember one of my friends playing Down with the Sickness for me the first time and then this. Still love them both.
This was my gateway into them. They were also my first concert. It was Disturbed with Chevelle and Trapt opened. I just made myself feel so old. I will say though as entrancing as his voice is on their albums it's nothing compared to seeing them live. David Draiman just exudes this charisma that you can't help but be ensnared by. Everytime I've seen them I've come away with chills and such an incredible adrenaline rush. Highly recommend seeing them if ya get a chance.
I rented the DBZ vhs Lord Slug from Blockbuster and this song was on there. I think there were a couple other Disturbed songs on the vhs as well.
@@mandyhammond8439 I'm a bad fan. I've all of their albums and been listening to them since like 2003 but haven't ever seen them live. I think I remember seeing some amv with Meaning of Life as the first disturbed song I heard
“Te Fa Ched” is Hebrew future tense of “to be afraid”. Draiman uses this veiled meaning to contrast with “don’t be afraid” in the next stanza, ostensibly as a warning, to let the listener know that his grasp on sanity is slipping away, and allude to his future potential for violence, within the context of the song. Brilliant lyrical imagery.
Sounds a bit like "Erwachet" in german.
As a huge fan of Disturbed for over 20 years, I am glad you found and appreciate them. I am sorry you missed out on the last 3 decades. It is awesome to see people who really understand and appreciate music to recognize how incredible he is as a vocalist.
This song is his best example of that alternating clean and distorted vocals. It's brilliant.
the game is also a good one
One of my favorites of all time is Prayer. It really speaks to me when I am struggling in life.
Yeah one of my favorites
@Alpar gataa those would be my choices as well.
I discovered prayer when I was a teen... It gripped me instantly. Amazing vocals and feelings portrayed in one song... And the part of the song which got to me the most is "BURN ME ALIVE INSIDE!"
Every song off Believe is incredible. Their best album IMO
My go to is vengeful one. My kids know something's gonna break off when I blare it in the shop
I am always amazed at David's abilities and vocal ranges. When he sings it's obvious that he articulates the words in such a way that they are clear and you can hear them. He doesn't mumble or slur them. I have always loved this about him. It gives each song a degree of vocal maturity in my mind. Disturbed has proven themselves to be one of the greatest bands ever formed. Rock on Disturbed!
The musicians in Disturbed are excellent and should not be overlooked. Perfect with David's voice, they work together and compliment each other. LOVE this band! And they're not afraid to try new things, they really love the music, won't settle for doing the same thing forever.
David is one of the best!! “The Night” and “Stricken” are great choices that show off David’s range and the bands playing. Moreover, “Darkness” is a beautiful ballad with his emotional vocals front and center
Yes I agree
Those are some excellent suggestions.
Replace the night with Deceiver
Stricken is one of my all-time faves!!
The Night is so much better
So glad you gave David Draiman a more in depth look. He really is an amazing vocalist. His ability to use a seemingly distorted vocal so cleanly is very unique. Very powerful.
The way Dave can rip his voice at will is one of the most amazing vocal acrobatics in music. All hail!
One of my favorites to see live! Whole crowd sang along to this one - could almost see the air shake from the power.
"Stricken" is a banger as well that really highlights them musically and Draiman's vocals.
I've been a fan of Disturbed since this originally came out...Jesus, has it really been 23 years🤯
It's absolutely mind-bottling!! lol
Stop making me feel old.
Yup same here! I saw this video summer 2000, bought the CD that September then saw them live for the first time that October. I wandered to their website and on to their message board and met people that I’m still friends with today there. Two I consider my sisters. 😊
I thought it was album of the year by a mile.
Same here. I was around 11 years old and here I am still listening to them regularly on shuffle on Spotify
My favorite song by Disturbed is "Stricken", but a great example of David's versatility in being able to switch from clean to animalistic gutteral vocals can be demonstrated in the song "The Animal"... impressive to say the least
This song’s arrangement on the album makes for an even deeper experience as “Stupify” leads into “Down With The Sickness” which may help to capture David’s intention for the relationship between the songs even better. Really great stuff!
David is really one of the voices of the modern age 😅 Jokes aside, he has a very distinct voice that he didn't lost with time, which is super cool. Still excited for their new stuff all these years later.
OW WAH AH AH AH ©
He uses Autotune
@@stevethomas1301 he's had auto tuned microphones against his will in some cases, yes.
Speaking of voices…that’s a banger of a song. (Voices)
@@stevethomas1301 no? you've literally never produced vocals in your entire life lmfao
... Ohhh Ohhh... Ohh Ohh
The whole “Believe (2002)” album is one of my favorites in terms of both lyricism and more “ballads” with some metal sprinkled in. Also the cover looks cool.
Believe is still my favorite Disturbed album
@@timelessninja +1
Agreed.
YES!
Disturbed is one of those rare bands that doesn't really have a bad song. I have been a big fan since their first album.
A drawback is that a ton of their songs sound the same
To each their own. Personally I feel everything after Asylum has been half baked at best. Some of it's just cringe man.
.... Not to be an ass, but I completely disagree.
I totally agree! Like I have my favorites of course but I can jam out to Any Song in their discography
@@2yoyoyo1Unplugged th-cam.com/video/66gSvNeqevg/w-d-xo.html
The fact that you want to delve deeper, follow the band further, is why we love you. And you do not just react, you take deep dives. Everything deserves a deep dive.
Disturbed have lots of great songs. Some big early songs of theirs are "Prayer" and "Remember"
'Mistress', 'Voices', 'The Game', 'Dropping Plates'....ok....ALL OF THEIR SONGS.....just all of them
Remember is my favorite song off the second album.
These are my two favorites!
Darkness will always be my favourite, I love Disturbed.
Prayer is one of my faves his presence in that video is just wow! He just has a very powerful presence idk how else to say it. But I love it and can't forget striken is really good too.
I can't say it enough. I love seeing people discover the greatness I have appreciated for so long. It's a feeling of connection that I've always wanted, but didn’t realize it at the time.
You are hands down the best react channel - you have enthusiasm, joy, a hunger for understanding and provide insightful commentary every time. Top notch! Keep doing what you're doing.
I think David's vocal monster is represented by their "mascot", The Guy. It's also amazing seeing someone discover songs from your favorite band for the first time. Can't wait for more!
Voice Box Monster, IMO.
Love his vocal range. So much talent.
This song is such a perfect example of his signature staccato vocal style. Even to this day and their newest releases he still sings that way, it's awesome.
Another one back to my misbegotten youth! I love how wholesomely enamoured you are with his voice, great stuff!
Dave is amazing, definitely one of the most precise metal vocalists. Every scream, growl, etc is replicated sentence to sentence so precisely to give a regular sound an rhythm.
I appreciate that you admit it’s better for the channel to visit a band once and move on, but you’d rather take the time to revisit bands and dive deeper. The fact that you do deep dives over multiple videos is why I keep coming back to your channel, and I really respect you for staying true to yourself.
"May you fall more in love with music every day", what a beautiful sentence! 💛
Tracheal Terror?
I just love her face when he went into the chanting and every time he makes *his* sound...........I can't freaking WAIT until she does The Sickness 😂. I really hope she also does both Disturbeds version of Stricken and then the version David's brother did.
Hey, she did already "Down with the Sickness" (the cleaned version...)
Going back to watch this again, knowing more about David the person, really gives a new appreciation for his artistry. Also, having you make sense of the musicality and reason as to why I'm so affected by certain songs...the anticipated builds, the underlying fury, has allowed me to revisit certain pieces of mysic that have been powerful for me throughout my life with a greater respect and value.
The thing I’ve always loved about David Drainman is his ability to pierce through the music and not have to sing over the top of the instruments.
My favourite thing about the "I think I'm breaking down" line is that Draiman sings it as an onomatopoeia - the separation of the syllables there is just stunning!
I’m so glad Disturbed, Korn, Godsmack, Rob Zombie, and System Of A Down, Slipknot (and many more) were the bands I grew up listening to as a kid. Watching your reactions/analyses of them gives me such a better appreciation for them though!
My dad listened to a lot of rock and metal but there were only like 4 bands I thought were consistently good that he listened to. Those were System of A Down, Rammestein, Disturbed, and Three Days Grace. I like a lot of other bands he listened to but these were the ones I liked the most.
I truly appreciate someone who wants to explore an artist, not just listening to them once, but analyze the different layers in metal/rock. Thank you so much, I love this channel. 😊
I can't wait! I LOVE Stupify. The whole first album is straight fire.
The light and uninvited guest are two amazing songs that really show off David's voice
Oh yeah the Light is definitely a good showcase of his voice
David and Disturbed was my first real intro into the world of rock/metal music. I will forever love all of their music.
On a side note you need to also do a Sleep Token reaction. "The Summoning" by them shows such a vocal range of this new generation of music. You see the inspirations they've taken from all of the older bands.
One of the big appeals of this song to many Disturbed fans is the balance of the smooth and the harsh sections of the song - his ability to make both sides sound beautiful is what many of us love about his voice.
And I think I've said it before, but for something really surreal after listening to Disturbed, look up Ben Draiman's cover of Stricken. It's David's brother, doing a cover of one of Disturbed's songs, and it's amazing how different it is from the original.
Not specific to this video but the thing I absolutely LOVE about your videos is how enthusiastically open-minded you are coming in to every single video and how you find something - anything - to make note of that I as a maybe long-time listener may not have even picked up the first time around. Much love and prosperity to you and your channel! ♥️♥️♥️
The Draiman Demon voice he uses is one of the most effective voice explosives in music. It is iconic and well known for grabbing you out of your socks while also encouraging you to be disturbed and yet rage with him. People that just know that one part from Down With the Sickness, the ooo wah ah ah ah, will always hear it and repeat it. So it's awesome to see you react to that in here as well, because it's most recognizable as simply a thing that he does with his music.
Draiman Demon is pretty good too.
I think that Down With The Sickness has one of the very best drum riffs in rock history.
My dad brought me to my 1st rock concert in July 1964, at age 7.
Thankyou for always making these videos for us!! Love you 😂❤️
I remember so many old-school metal fans refused to embrace this, but I always thought it was great. 🤘🤘
Id love to see you review their song "Inside The Fire"
Aside from the vocals and music being quite typical of the band from that time, the lyrics are fascinating
Yes, I agree 100%. One of my favorites by them. Also a sad backstory.
One of the first disturbed tracks I’ve heard back then, great choice! 🔥🔥 Can’t wait til you check out voices, darkness, stricken, and many more of his best vocal performances!
God I loved this song as a young kid as this album (along with Hybrid Theory) is what developed my love for Rock. Draiman has such power and "that demon" you referred to is exactly what he can do. I remember reading this song is about breaking off an engagement due to the stress the woman was putting on the man to get married and the man wanting to have sex before marriage. They couldn't get over the difference and lost their eventual marriage.
I love how in depth your reviews get.
I love how you get so passionate and expressive with these breakdowns. You are such a joy to watch!!
Oh thank you!
I am going to be 60 years old and listening to this song and singing along with it, makes me feel calmer, it pops in my head during times of anxiety due to the ignorance of others and it's funny how music can either ramp you up or calm you down. I see how you seemed to feel more anxiety during this and it scared you and for me it's different. The aggression, sadness, anger, angst, hysteria and almost madness of this song with David's voice along with the amazing music helps me take control of the stress and anxiety I have inside at times. After all these years it still pops in my head and I will sing the entire song in my head along with the screams and it calms me down and I feel less stressed. Music saves, even music that sounds scary to others :) I love your vocal analysis channel. :)
I noticed the same thing. Each time the vocals made her jump was when I would feel a sudden release of tension from my back and chest. It's funny how music affects all of us differently. I'm 44 and discovered metal back around 1990. I fell in love with Metallica's "Master of Puppets" album. Then I discovered Nine Inch Nails "Broken" EP and fell in love with Industrial music, too. I've been entranced with both genres, and their many crossovers and variants, ever since. I'm one of the people who can say with all honesty that metal saved my life.
@@merianyas1162 I love it. My 50th birthday wish was to see NIN and Soundgarden together and my husband made that happen. I am from Illinois and got many opportunities to see Disturbed when they were a newly formed band and will love them always. I love bands like Spiritbox which is definitely more scream metal yet I still love and listen to The Carpenters and love my Shaman's Harvest which is more Southern Rock. Music does save, thanks for sharing your story!
I first heard this song when it released and immediately knew this band was going places. Not one album has failed to speak to people. Their first 4 albums helped me get through a tough breakup, especially with songs like Deceiver and Sacrifice. They spoke to me in one of my darkest places and helped me accept and deal with my depression. Please, please, please try to have tea with him!
I'm so hyped to see them this year. Love you reviewing one of my favorite bands.
David has a nice vocal presence with different ranges. Wether he sings heavy medium or soft it all sounds great. I also like his signature raspy vibrato he does.
The word he is saying in the bridge is “Tefached” which in Hebrew means “you will fear” or “you will be afraid”
Thanks for bringing such a musical education into metal. And for showing such an appreciation for David’s vocal talents. He’s one of metals best vocalists. You really need to see them live!!!!
שלום בה עם כוח פנימי
@@eviatarharazi2552 "Peace be upon her with inner strength" agree with my whole heart. Shalom, Moshe
I've been listening to this song since I was in 8th grade and I'm now nearly 31 and never knew this, that's so cool! Thank you so much for sharing that!!
@@eviatarharazi2552 בא
Disturbed's whole catalog is amazing, but many amazing songs get overlooked. My personal favorite is one called, "Haunted" that was off their fourth album. I'd love to see you react and and do an analysis of that song.
Their cover of the song Shout is amazing as well. I was probably 16 or 17 when this album came out and I listened to it over and over. I even got to see him live a few years back. It was the first concert they did after quite a long hiatus. It was amazing... All except it was an outdoor venue and the neighbouring farmer decided to spread manure on his field during the show and the smell was rather atrocious. All David had to say about that was "Mr. Farmer.... ROCK ON!" Such a classy dude.
I love how incredibly percussive he is with his voice
David Draiman is honestly my favorite vocalist of all time. He is so perfect for what he does. I'd love to be able to sing like him.
I love how you make me look at the details of what's going on, but I also am always amazed that you coming from a different angle to listening to the music you don't realize how much it makes a connection to some of us on a visceral level long before we recognize the details. That being said, I love what you do, keep it up.
I was obsessed with the beginning and how smooth the transition was so I appreciated your commentary on that
I love David's staccato and precise enunciation.
Precise enunciation? LMAO. He pronounces FUCK as FAULK. And not by accident.
@@toolologist6274 Maybe I mean the rhythm? Not sure how to describe it, but he has that staccato and very clear delivery.
probably my fav disturbed song really puts his range on full display
Great reaction as always! This was the first song I heard from them and it prompted me to buy the whole album as my first CD - definitely a great purchase!
Thank you for delving into the various artists a bit more. I've listened to this song many times but never paid attention to that little electronic pitch you detected in the intro - well spotted!
I would LOVE to see Elizabeth react to a somewhat similar band that came out around the same time called Static-X. I think she'd really like Wayne's voice
Yes!! Love Wayne’s voice!!
Yes! Definitely Static-x
I have been waiting for her to react to Static-X!
i love how the internet found a pretty opera singer and go it in their heads to make her a metalhead!
The most unique voice in metal. I love Wayne static!!
One of my favorite songs of theirs is called Remember. It's one of their older ones, but I think it really demonstrates Davids voice in an exceptional way. Plus, its just a really good song.
That is also probably my favorite song from Disturbed.
So many great songs, “Just Stop” is in my top five.
This is the meaning behind it:
“About a situation where your other half is always trying to come up with reasons to argue with you and you are constantly apologizing, and constantly asking for forgiveness, over and over again, and the frustration that comes with it. The song is asking “that person” to just stop.”
Love that track and the whole Believe album 🔥
23 years ago I got to see them live in New Jersey. This song had just hit radio for only like a month. They were the main event and one of the opening acts was tap root. It was a massive biker bar they performed at. So at the bar before they were performing they actually got some drinks and talked to folks. Such an amazing peformance. wow I was 26.. Time flies eh. :)
Thank You so much I really enjoyed this. I was a Voice Major in college, so we're kindred spirits. I sang in a lot of bands including a lot of original music...The first time I head David's voice, (when this album was released ) I immediately bought the CD, and every song on it is perfection..... So it was fun to watch your reaction..loved it...
I fell into David and Disturbed via Sound Of Silence having decided they were not my cup of tea first time around. I listened to the Evolution album on repeat for months, breaking my heart every time. Then I started working through the back catalogue. Much of it is still not for me, being just too harsh for my ears, but I listened to every track at least twice and I discovered that this band is in no way lazy. They weave their tapestry through even the harshest tracks and pretty much every song has a message. They make you angry, they make you feel pain, they make you think and see things differently. And David's voice is every bit as good now as it was then! Very rare for a man who uses his voice this way.
15:23 this part never fails to give me chills. that instrumental and then the drop. chefs kiss.
This was my intro to Disturbed. I got to see them live in a small venue in Tulsa Oklahoma in 2001 and they’re amazing freakin live!
I'm binging your analyses of my favourite songs from my younger years. Incredible ❤
The meaning behind this song always gets me emotionally. When I first heard this song I didn't realize the meaning. I absolutely love Disturbed, listening to them throughout my teenage years helped with my depression from abuse and loss.
What I love about this channel, other than absolutely everything, is Elizabeth's knowledge and recognition of ability. It doesn't have to be music or technique you like to recognise and admire incredible ability. Also the emotion and expressions... those are pretty funny too :D Loved this!
I had the pleasure of seeing Disturbed when they toured this album over 20 years ago. They were a spectacular show even back then, and even through the headbanging, the music gave me chills. One of the best live performances I've been to. I can only imagine what two more decades of practicing their craft has done, and I would love to see them again. David is an absolute beast of a vocalist, definately top tier, not just in rock but in the music industry.
Thanks for the honesty!! It's refreshing to hear!
Fun fact: Tefached is Hebrew and roughly translates to "be afraid" or "you will fear", I loved this and look forward to more metal from you.
That said, I'd love to see you look into Dir en Grey, specifically, their song Vinushka. It's incredibly powerful and heartwrenching all at once.
bump? can I do that here? lol. I think she should also look into Malice Mizer's au revoir, It's not so much like metal, but it's still rock and I think she'd love the voice of Gackt
I love their cover of 'Land of Confusion'.
Absolute banger !
Just discovered this channel & subbed - you've rejuvenated my love for alot of nu-metal bands & songs I've been adoring for years - Seeing your joy & emotions is like me rediscovering them all over again - SO THANK YOU! (I would go with "VERBAL DEMON" for David Draiman's "gutteral vocals"!!)
I absolutely LOVE how much music you’ve helped me REdiscover from my youth. You rock
It's always interesting to hear you dig so deep into these artists, songs, and vocals that I've heard so many times. I've been listening to Disturbed since I was a kid, and have heard them and this song may many times over, such that I really don't give the vocals a second thought at this point. It's nice to get a fresh perspective and reminder of how awesome this music really is.
Love them since their first album. Lots and lots of great songs, but truly moving is "Inside the fire". Message and amount of emotions Is just enormous. Will love to hear you experience it.
I appreciate that you are both tough and kind. It's a beautiful thing
i love watching your videos...your reactions to his vocal "outbursts" are awesome.
I would recommend as the next track from Disturbed is their Land of Confusion cover!
Probably favorite track of theirs!
Stupefy and Shout (TFF cover) were the first songs I heard from them in 2000 or 2001 and they sound just as fresh and awesome now as they did then.
Disturbed is my favourite band! He's an amazing vocalist!
Im glad you've discovered him, enjoy him and bring appreciation of his masterpieces to others.
I just discovered your channel and i have been binge watching your videos. It feels like I am reliving my teenage years with you reacting to hearing the music for the first time. A lot of these song got me through some dark times. The way you get gitty, smile and move your eye brows makes me laugh. I love your analysis of all the videos since you are taking a very musical approach.
Yes!!! My favorite Disturbed song❤
One of my favourite songs of them is Numb. You must listen to it, David Draiman’s voice in that song is just mesmerising. Changes tones masterfully.
I love your reactions. You explain perfectly all the things that I hear and feel.
I always come away from your videos with a new appreciation for the song and music. I always learn more every video
