• Disturbed - The Sound...
Do you want to have fun? Huh? I caannn'ttt HEARRRR you!
All I hear is the sound of silence.
It really Disturbs me too.
Well, anyway....the reason this is such a fun reaction is that I am going to react with this old lady to the Disturbed cover of "Sound of Silence" then we are going to watch and react to the original version in Black and White from Simon and Garfunkel. Oh, my goodness it is fun guys. You must watch it all the way to the end. It is an absolute must-watch.

lol.
Good reaction.
Try James blunt monsters
Your chills were cold?
Disturbed song was Brilliant!
I’m a 56 year old US Army Cold War Veteran, always liked the S & G original, then I ran across Disturbed’s cover. I cried, I had goosebumps, it effected me like very few songs ever have. I’m an old Rock/Metal guy, have been a fan of Disturbed but didn’t know about them doing this cover until I ran across it on TH-cam
I'm a 66 year old musician S&G were a household name back in the day, but, , to be honest, ,I never got goosebumps until Disturbed did their cover.
I totally agree man....I feel the same way. Even Paul said that!
Me too, 66 here as well. Our entire family would play the album out and take turns doing lead...we were dorks, but it was fun.
Yesss!!
Me too....
74, here and David Draiman is my new "hero".
David Draiman...one of the best male vocalist's on the planet! Can go from warm baritone to angelic tenor to awesome rasp and grit and back again on a dime!! Amazing voice control and so soulful and powerful ! His range is also to die for! He's got it ALL !!
Yes, but as good as Draiman is, I doubt he could save "Muskrat Love" :-)
@@skysurfer5cva ...Lololol....doubt if anyone could save that! : )
He trained as a Cantor in Israel in his youth, late teens early 20'ish.
Got that right...
Totally agree!!!!!
I'm 61. I've seen it. S&G's was perfect for its time. Disturb's is perfect for now. S&G's was a prophesy. Disturb's is in your face for not listening. "Now, look what we've done!"
For sure man, what a great comment.
Perfect,what a great statement,I totally agree we reap what we sow.In our own ignorance we did not listen "Now, look what we've done!"...
"We did not listen. We're not listening still. Perhaps we never will." Another great song! I think that your comment was great!
Paul Simon even said, they captured the sound and emotion that they tried to get to. But they just had way too sweet of a sound to give the song the kind of warning it needed.
@@shelleyfoster4077 Vincent!! Thanks for the reminder. Haven't heard it in forever!
I’ll be 70 in a couple of months and I can’t get enough of this version. I get goosebumps every time I hear it!
As a 72 year old woman whose husband was in Vietnam, I have definitely heard Simon & Garfunkle's original song many, many times. This was huge during that war. When I fist began watching TH-cam about 10 years ago, this was one of the songs I first watched and thought that I could never like it any more than I did at that time. (I loved the fact that it was easy to actually hear all the lyrics.) I was wrong. Disturbed's version just blew me away. I felt much more emotion with Disturbed version. Bravo! Bravo!
Yessss, yessss, yessssss! So right!
69 years old and had both recorded versions of SOS by Simon an Garfunkel Albums - Wednesday Morning 3am , and Sounds of Silence on 8 track. Disturbed version is so theatrical that I had to download it and have watched dozens of reaction videos.
Love Simon and Garfunkle, but Disturbed cover of the song just gave me the CHILLS!!
For sure, the Disturbed version took the torch to the next generation. That is now the best version!
I knew the original version, but frankly it feels like 2 different songs.
Simon & Garfunkel sound ... "Cute", I never really paid attention to the meaning of the lyrics.
David (from Disturbed) gives meaning and intensity to every word he says. It gains so much more impact with his delivery.
Am 80 years old. Liked the original version of Sound of Silence... but David made this His song in the Disturbed version. Gives me chills, and brings tears to my eyes every time. Paul Simon liked it so much he put it on his online page.... you would not believe David anf the band are heavy metal musicians if you weren't told. Thank you for showing both videos
Seems a Lot of people never saw either...
This has to be the most masterful video ever made. Pure genius. Then the most amazing singer ever. I have to watch a video of David singing this song once a week. Absolutely a manly man.
Love the original version. Definitely has a place in history, however, the Disturbed version is enthralling. The video imagery, the instruments & Draimans intoxicating voice goes straight to my soul & I LOVE IT. ❤️😊
I love when people think something’s up with their sound when it starts silent.
Yea, that was so hilarious. I should have put 2 and 2 together...baahahahaa
Get ready for a religious experience! Moves me to my very soul! It's a thing of beauty!
I do like the original but the cover is much more powerful and more emotional.
this is one of those songs that should never be interrupted
EXACTLY!! That was so irritating.
Sorry about that guys. This was a reaction video. Those videos tend to get interrupted. Especially if they have never heard the song.
Here is the original version so you can see it uninterrupted.

Copyright strikes are not fun, and that's what happens if vids aren't paused at least a couple of times. If you want the song uninterrupted go listen to the original.
First it is a Reaction video, 🤔
Second it is a Reaction video, 🤨
Third if you did not catch the first two, it is a Reaction video, 😏
Have a safe and wonderful weekend, 😁
I was born in 1998 and grew up listening to the original Simon & Garfunkel version of “The Sound of Silence,” and it was one of my favorites as a child. Disturbed was playing a concern near my hometown in Ohio in highschool and I went with my friends. They played this song, fire erupted from the stage, a storm was brewing throughout the concert and lightning hit (literally) when this song was introduced... and I already knew the words, but they felt powerful and god-like in that moment. I’ll never forget when everyone crowded into the pavilion and raised their arms, and truly related to the words that were sang so long ago by a new voice. It was special.
WOW, that was an experience then. Disturbed recorded SOS in 2015 and the Conan O'Brien Show performance was 3/28/2016. Since those times the views have been over 800 million and 100 million respectively. Powerful!
The greatest cover of all time. IMO
Agreed! :}
I saw these two perform this song live while in college back in the late 1960s. They came on stage with one guitar, one still, and a sackful of songs that kept us enthralled for 2 hours.
I get goosebumps every single time! So powerful and beautiful. Disturbed definitely did a great job! Omg!
If you liked it, you should definitely react to their live version from the Conan O'Brien show. Despite being sick that day, lead singer David Draiman delivered a performance for the ages, complete with an orchestra. Conan celebrated the video of their performance as it was the first video from his show to get 100 million views.
I really thank you for your response. Yes, life can be brutal. We were introduced to it’s brutality when we, as young men (as teenagers) made the first official landing of troops in a third world country called Vietnam. A few of us survived, but more lost their lives. This happened only a few months after the song was first released. This rendition was not full of peace and flowers as Simons, it didn’t need to be. The responses you’ve gotten, from followers shows controversy in a positive way. I hope we heed the warning, and change our outlook on life. I believe there is still hope. Thank you Simon and thank you David, and thank you for being exactly who you both are. - Joe Redfeather -
Oh yes.... the live performance was Fantastic!!!!!! Need to see that!!!!!
The disturbed version is the way this song should have been in the first place. The original Simon version was soooo rushed and fast.
I agree, I think the 60s version might have been considered rock n roll back then...Lol
Their genre was folk music
It was shortly after JFK was killed. The sing was written. I remember the silence. But it was the sixties. Many great songs from that time.
The eve of destruction. Or the needle and the damage done. Yes we hear. But we certainly don't listen.
I agree.. for a song with such depth and meaning, I felt the .message was lost because it was too rushed and felt meaningless! I think through the years as SIMON and Garfunkel matured in their own musical talents, and even their own understanding of the songs message, they improved greatly on it! Beautiful harmony andover the acoustics , but at the end of the day, I still love Disturbed version much better.. Both are great in their own rights!
I saw Simon & Garfunkel on a video when they were much older and they still had a great sound between them. Harmony was wonderful. Disturbed's rendition was like a 2023 version of 1964 song. The Official Video has a wonderful moving Black & White of the way these word's would play out on a screen. Until I saw the video, I was less aware of the impact. The people on one island had the sheet music they wrote but no one sang or played their music, and the other group had the instruments, which maybe they had no music to play. The video starts out with all the instruments being trashed and junked. I have watched that video probably 30 times now. Powerful video! We were warned in 1964 and now once again, this powerful voice has warned us what has happened to us in 59 years.
So... storytime. My 70+ mum basically came running to me one day telling me all about this new song she had heard on the radio and how good it was. She didn't know by whom, she didn't remember the title just said it was silence something. Some time went by and then it came on the radio when we were together and again she was all Ohhh, it's this one, this is the song, listen to this song! It was this one she meant.
It's so funny how I had to tell her that she already knew the song but the Simon and Garfunkle version. She hadn't connected the two until I made her compare them.
Needless to say but I love this song. Both the original and this one. And this version gives me chills too. Again, I'm not one of the youngsters on here even if this song came out before my time. But I have their "best of" album. Simon and Garfunkel did great music.
Totally, They wrote some of the most amazing music in our history. Paul Simon won tons of awards through his career. That is why artist cover his songs today. They were incredible.
I absolutely love the cover by Disturbed. It is amazing. They did it perfectly.
I grew up in the 60's and always loved Simon and Garfunkel's "Sound of Silence". When my son showed me Disturbed's music video of their cover of it, it just reached into my soul! I am SO glad you reacted to the music video rather than the live version-- which is great, but it's the visuals of the video that make it SO powerful! Now, react to Pentatonix' cover of the Sound if Silence. If you are not familiar with Pentatonix, they are 5 person a capella group that will absolutely blow you away. All three versions are masterpieces in their own right, so it's not a matter of one being "better" than another. They are all different, but equally powerful. Great reaction!
Totally, the Disturbed version really took the message and made it whole.
Thank you! for adding that original video. I'm very familiar with the original version of the song but never saw that video. Cool that you guys like Disturbed's version.
Do you see why Paul Simon had a link to this video on his personal web site? Paul likes Disturbed's better.
I have heard it said, That S&G sang a warning of a future
Disturbed is singing that the Future Is Upon Us.
Like many other reactors, you mention that the voice becomes stronger starting with the third verse. What almost no one seems to recognize is that he jumps up a full octave (displaying the very wide range of his voice). It is the higher tone, along with volume, that makes the song get more and more dramatic.
Simon and Garfunkle sang a gentle warning, David sang an angry 'you didn't listen to the warning'
I fully agree.
Finally someone that has done both version in one video!!
Man! I Absolutely appreciate yall doing both songs back to back. Good stuff
this song was written by paul simon, sung by art garfunkle, during the late 1960s about the Vietnam war. on one side of the water were people with the instruments, the other side people holding sheets of music. David Draiman spent the first couple of decades of his life training in the US and Israel to be a cantor, like his world-famous grandfather.
I'm surprised you didn't talk about the significance of the Disturbed video. Where everything is dark and dead and people are sad, then music is brought back, and there is hope once again. SUCH COLD CHILLS!!! Great selection!!!
Yea, I got something different out of the video. I love music for that reason. I didn't see it as sad. I saw it as people who were writing songs that voices never share,
and no one dared to disturb the sound of silence.
Then some musicians came up who played those songs. I love that video.
@@oldguyreactions hey old guy, react a "Panic! at the disco - the ballad of Monalisa" .
A song to blow your mind also is “Tennessee Whiskey” by Chris Stapleton
I have seen them sing this but not on this show. I am much older than you but it really sounds like two different song . The first one made me listen to the words more than original. You need to see Disturbed live on the Conan show doing this. Incredible. I have heard Disturbed many many times and get goose bumps every time it is my fav
Totally, I agree. The Disturbed version is now the best version made for the next generation!
@@oldguyreactions I also heard that Paul Simon loved it a lot
With almost 600 million views, this is massively the best performance ever. The best vocal, best video, wayyy better than the original. It cuts right through my soul. I watch and listen to this song on repeat, when I wake up in the morning, to and from work, when I get home, and I watch 3-5 reactions before I go to sleep, then the next day, I do it all over again everyday in the last 3 weeks since I found it in the Netflix movie called Into the Badlands. David Draiman, you are addicting to listen to. Where have you been all this time? I hope you keep on giving us gifts like this one. I'm now your #1 fan!
Ughhh! Happy tears, I’m crying and not even halfway through Sending love to you and yours from Orlando Florida
never ever pause this song. It should be listened to fully thru the whole song to get the real feel of emotion. This is the best song I have ever heard of this version. Even Simon and Garfunkel heard his live version on Conan, BTW David had the flu that day, they actually posted his song on their site.
I dont know if you know, but reactors pause so that it will not be blocked. In order to play music you have to give commentary. Blame youtube and the record companies. Some reactors can get some to go through. TH-cam is difficult behind the scenes
Original song stunk. Thank goodness fir Disturbed, who did it justice!!!
Exactly
Dear Old guy Reaction, Love the comparing in your video, I actually own Simon and Garfunkel Record when records was out, I play it so much it started skipping I over play it Love their music. However, Disturbed put feeling into this sound of silence while Simon and Garfunkel gave this so a light happy sound. Love both style of The sound of silence and love your video you both are so funny keep up the great videos. I old person to I arrive on earth in 1957. yep! old soul. God bless you both
Paul Simon, the writer, said this was now Disturbed's song, what an honor.
I’ve watched a different video of Simon and Garfunkel performing this song, it’s my favorite song of all time. Theirs was a warning, Disturbed’s version was an angry condemnation because no one heeded the warning.
Interesting take! Super cool!
Enjoyed the reaction. Y’all should check out some of their other songs/videos. Remember, Prayer, Stupify, The Light, The Animal, Voices, Inside the Fire, Indestructible, Stricken, The Vengeful One, Who Taught You How to Hate, Save Our Last Goodbye, Hold on to Memories, If I Ever Lose My Faith in You, Liberate, My Child, A Reason to Fight.
David Dramin has one of the best vocals ever. Brent Smith of Shinedown also has a wonderful voice
Yessss!! Brent is my MAN!
This is the best thing I’ve seen in years, y’all are so lovely. 🤘🏻🤘🏻 also yeah I seen the og one of course, how do you think I found ya?!
I have never seen this video.
Paul Simon wrote this song as a warning 60 years ago and David Draiman and Disturbed are now saying that they are angry that we have not heeded the warning. Paul Simon who wrote the song told Disturbed that this is now their song.
If you don't know them, you have to meet the best male and female TODAY!!! The undisputed best male singer in the world is "DIMASH"!! Sings S. O. S. a french song and Sinful Passion. With many others. He is 26 from Kazakhstan. e sings in 12 languages and has a range from Bass to a D 8 so high it's not on a piano. What can he sing? ANYTHING? The female is Korean, her name is "So Hyang" she does not sing for money or fame. In fact, SONY has tried to sign her for 15 years. She sings for the comfort of the people. Ovarian and uterine cancer when she was 21 and survived, so it's for to and because of the Lord. I go back to Dolly Parton so I know but Whitney is an ICON, however rules, law, and records are meant to be broken. Check out I Will Always Love you, along with another Korean KPOP singer named "Ailee" both sing I Will Always Love You very excellent!! So Hyang also sings Lean on Me with Michael Bolton watching her. "Arirang Alone" is a 600-year folk song she re-arranges and blows everybody away. Want more? All this time nobody could compete with Barbara Streisand with the song Memory from the Broadway show Cats that is until now enter So Hyang. You Raised Me Up etc. Enjoy!!
I PERSONALLY LOVE BOTH VERSIONS OF THIS MASTERPIECE!👍👍🌞🌞🌞🌞👍👍👍👍👍👍
Like your enthusiasm...I'm 82 and listened to them in realtime.
Thank you...wow 82....you are awesome! I appreciate you!
The silence is the perfect way to deliver this song, EPIC COVER by Disturbed ❤❤❤
I didn't know you'd play the original version by Simon and Garfunkle, they sent a message, but Disturbed made SURE you'd listen now!!!
Also, whether or not you believe in spirit guides, I recently discovered that I am blessed to have some and decided to start listening to them. They actually led me to Disturbed and David Draiman on TH-cam and their cover B&W 4K video of Simon and Garfunkels The Sound of Silence. My spirit guides are screaming at me to tell all of you that if we lose our Democracy we will lose our freedom to listen to the music of our choice like Disturbed! If THEY can ban our books, THEY can ban/outlaw our music 🎶! Love you all, Diane ❤
Best part if you've never listened to Disturbed then now you have to because that song is off from their norm. and David killed it ➕. Glad you shared the original as well my first time seeing the video.
I Originally by Simon & Garfunkel in 1964 it was a warning.. how technology was separating people..as a Dream by Paul...and as the future from there has shown true..Disturbed did a cover which brings so much emotion..anger to this warning..as we have gone beyond this warning. I love this song cover and have loved Disturbed since they came out back in '94..David is Classically trained and goes above his normal heavy metal to show the emotion. With the world we live in now..with Covid..this is ever more prevalent..as I have said every single time I have shared this..if this does not make you feel..does not give you goosebumps you are not human. Much love
*edit* there is a live version of this song from Conan...with that there are two sections where 'autotune' is used during the live performance. DAVID WAS AGAINST THIS..but he was also very sick, had a fever and was not sure he could do the show. He is seated the whole time of the live version. This is testament to his abilities as he sounds absolutely amazing and the autotune is only used in two very small sections. This man's voice is of the God's
You have to do the live version from The Conan O'Brien show! It is the best! David Draiman is the lead singer of Disturbed. Diversion is a very powerful will give you chills and he was sick when he sang it on the show. Trust me, it will give you goosebumps!! One of the best live performances you'll ever hear! 🎤🎙🎼🎸
I did see that one too. Disturb has now taken the torch and has made the "Sound of Silence" their song for the next generation. So cool!
Cuando se toca y araña el alma humana modificandola se está ante una OBRA MAESTRA. SU VOZZZZ TAN INCREIBLEMENTE ÚNICA MARAVILLOSA E INIGUALABLE NACE DESDE LO MÁS PROFUNDO DE LOS SENTIMIENTOS. DEBERÍA SER ESCUCHADA EN TODO EL MUNDO ❤❤❤❤❤❤ES MUUUY PODEROSA
Try reacting to Disturbed "Hold on to Memories" and "The Light," and “Down with the Sickness,” Both are amazing and a vastly different side of the band.
yessss, I will write them down now? Any other new bands out there?
@@oldguyreactions Nightwish - Ghost Love Score from Wacken 2013. I am almost 60 and that was the song that started my Nightwish journey. The Genre is Symphonic Metal. You will NOT be sorry!!
He's classically trained. He's a awesome performer.
i love how you included the original...its like creepy and beautiful versus angry and beautiful 🤣
What a great touch to the video to add the original as well Thanks
Grew up with Simon and Garfunkel.. but disturbed rock this song
I have seen it..I first heard it 71 when I was 8,played and sang it as a street musician but I have to say much as I still love the Simon and Garfunkel version...I'm totally floored by the Disturbed version...its Awesome!!! Thanks for playing the two versions back to back!!!
TYTY ..Old Guy...What a treat...2 videos!! I truely enjoy this reaction...
I want to see more of your reactions, so subscribed hit the "All" bell and thumbs up!!
See you next time..:)
I love the fact they thought something was wrong because the beginning was silent
You could say they were disturbed by the sound of silence.
hahahahaha, I know man....sooo funny!
Even more epic is disturbeds live on conan performance of this song
Love disturbed and Simon and Garfunkel, but my personal favorite is by an A capella group called
Pentatonix. They did this song with only their voices and a beat boxer.
Please check it out! You won't be disappointed! 😁
I have to say,as good as S & G were/are,I much prefer the newer slower version by Disturbed.To me it has more depth and meaning,and his voice is extraordinary,the rawness and grit coming out in the latter part of the song is unbelievable.(by the way,love the hair color).
As many have said, S&G version was a light warning.
Davids version is the "you didn't listen to the warning and now I'm angry" vibe. And Paul Simon even said, this version is what they tried to get to.
I appreciate your video - especially the old Simon and Garfunkel! First time watch it!
I have a request, could you do the reaction for Johnny Cash - Hurt ? It is such a powerful song and Johnny Cash literally put his life in that song.
I'm pretty sure you will love it.
I might have heard it already, but I will look that one up.
@@oldguyreactions thanks!
By now you have seen and experienced the Conan Show performance. If not, you should just for the experience of a 20-piece orchestra behind David which gives the song a different feeling.
I am 76 and grew up with Simon & Garfunkel. I never understood the song until about a year ago when I heard Disturbed's cover and then the Conan Show performance. I would like to have the studio version video and the Conan Show audio on a DVD.
This is the only cover that Paul Simon has linked on his social media. He also said that it now belongs to Disturbed.
if you can find the videos for the Simon & Garfunkel, Concert in Central Park, they sing this slightly slowed down and more powerful than the version here that was reacted to here. The one reacted to here felt like they were rushing through it.
Love the harmonies in the original, but i also like the power in Disturbed version. Disturbed is a heavy metal group, The guy singing his name is David dramon, he is a classical trained singer.
I have the DVD of their concert at Central Park, they are awesome but Disturbed put another dimension to the lyrics.
Absolutely. I think the lyrics deserve this treatment.They're not uplifting lyrics, they're dark and prescient. This version serves the purpose of the lyrics better.
S & G gave a warning. Disturbed took it to the next level.
Funny how at the beginning you reacted to the sound of silence..
Hahaha, the irony is hilarious!
You really should check out his live performance of this on Conan. And the singer David was sick with a cold and fever…it will blow your mind
I love your reaction, I think it was fantastic that you watched the original and the Disturbed version. Most of the time when someone reacts, they react to one or the other and the video most use for the S&G version is from the concert in Central Park and I just don't think that version is very good. I just absolutely love the Disturbed version and in case nobody else has said it yet Paul Simon said it was the best version of the song that's ever been done and you need to watch the live performance on Conan.
Yea, I had to watch the original to verify what I remember. I loved the original, but holy moly, the Disturbed one was incredible. It is for sure the best version right now. Obviously, I give props to Paul for writing such an amazing song, but it is now a Disturbed song in my mind.
I watched the Conan live and it seemed much slower and less impact emotionally for me. I am sure the original Disturbed recording that had so much power will be next to impossible to duplicate live. The more it is sung, the less emotion and power the singer will have.
You need to react to Disturbed's live version from the Conan O'Brien show. Many like even better than the studio/video version.
Live version much much better....
It's jaw-dropping 🤯 🤯 🤯
I'm 43. Grew up listening to my parents generations music. Love a lot of it. Simon and Garfunkel were on the list. I seldom like remixes of songs. It just seems to steal something for the meaning. However this is a version I can't get enough of. I even think I like this version better. Same song, but I think they have 2 completely different journeys to take a listener. Great fun.
No one dared. Stand up. Dare to change history. DARE TO CHANGE ALL.
Both version are great! S&G is a folk version and the original. Disturbed did a very large orchestral version and gave a completely different effect to the song. Both are awesome and iconic. It's just a taste and what the listener is in the mood for. It's art.
This one you are talking about is the Conan O'Brien Show performance of 3/28/2016 which was done just prior to a music award show that Disturbed was in. That performance was done when David was sick with a fever and sitting on a stool. There were the 5 members of Disturbed plus another 15 to make the orchestra behind David. The audience gave a standing ovation and applause for over 10 minutes, the set has been viewed over 100 million times (the most for any of Conan's shows), and the backstage people come out to see who was singing.
Every show I have ever viewed sounds just as good whether it was studio or live.
@@royreynolds108 Yes! For me, Disturb's cover on Conan is one of the best cover's of all time! If's there's even better performances that Disturb has done, please post! They would be awesome to hear!
first time I see your channel. I really liked his reaction to the great version of this classic, sung by Disturbed. greetings guys from Chile your server David.
Okey, I'm born in 71,so no didn't see original until I was 5,because my parents loved all music from 1940- 1976 at that time,lol. But it gave me such a broad perspective on music and still today I never ever go for the "hits"the one hit wonders, they fake . My father followed me in my music taste all through my upbringing, because he trusted my taste. Wonderful reaction, super hugs from Sweden.
Loved Simon and Garfunkel, their version was a warning, David was angry, no one listened!
Yesss, good comment!
Great, great, great... I love the unstructured structure of this channel!
Live version....Conan O'Brien Show
It's jaw-dropping 🤯 🤯 🤯 🤯 🤯
Going on 6 years since this was released... hands-down, the best song, video and cover in that time!!! NOW YOU HAVE TO watch their live performance on Conan ->>>> Disturbed - Sound Of Silence (cover/LIVE) = th-cam.com/video/Bk7RVw3I8eg/w-d-xo.html
I watched it, I felt like it was a little slower than the music video. I don't know. the visuals in the music video were amazing and made it for me.
Live version much much better
1964 original and Simon said this was best cover of it 👌
I've never seen an older woman with hair of that color. I LOVE IT!! 😂❤️ The reaction was really good. I just needed to get that out of my system, lol.
Wow! Loved hearing both versions back to back! Both were amazing!
You need to check out the video of Simon and Garfunkel singing that same song after they got back together.
That was awesome. I have loved this song ever since it came out back in 1964. I was ten years old ,I understood it then and I understand it now. But always remember it has many meanings. I'm 67 years old and I think Disturbed is a very interesting band. I am obsessed with this sing and yes I have seen the Simon and Garfunkel video, I believe it was about 12 years ago. They were so young.
Simon and Garfunkel version was a warning... David Draiman's version was anget because no one paid attention to the warning. Pentatonix's version gives us hope that we can still fix this.
You being a Metal Drummer , I've got the perfect one for you to react to . Buddy Rich , Live At The Chicago Jazz Festival 1985 . Sadly , he passed about 5 years after this performance . He was the greatest .
We also lost Neil Peart last year. One of the greatest drummers in music history. I'll check out Buddies video.
Even Paul Simon preferred David Draiman's rendition of his song. Orginal lyrics made the Disturbed cover so much more powerful.
She is amazing. You need to stop stopping
This is the best cover of a song I have ever heard with the exception of Pentatonix hallelujah. Simon and Garfunkel sing the song as a warning. Disturbed shows the rage that we have not yet learn the lesson. Pentatonix does are cover that is more hopeful.
I don't know if you reacted to it but down with the sickness is a very popular song and if you haven't reacted to it the beginning of the song may be very familiar to you. They recently released a cover of stings if I ever lose my faith and you. It is very good.
David Draiman was raised as an orthodox Jew. He went to school to become a cantor. Cantors sing what the rabbi has just read from the torah. Cantors have very deep, rich, luscious Voices that need to hold notes in a low Register. It is beautiful to hear Even if you don't speak Hebrew. I don't speak Hebrew but I love friday night services when there is a cantor. Not all synagogues have cantors. An example of art imitating life There was a movie way back called the jazz singer with Neil diamond. He is a cantor and comes from a long line of cantors. It is the family business. He Wants to leave that behind to pursue his music, jazz.
I’m with you my friend. Great reaction!
Eu amo as duas versões mas confesso que com Disturbed mexe mais com minha alma. David Draiman é fenomenal.
You have to check out the live performance of disturbed doing this song on Conan!!!
