For everyone saying I need to listen to the Live version Theatre Kid Reacts to Disturbed: Sound Of Silence LIVE th-cam.com/video/NG7RZgGedRo/w-d-xo.html
I'm sure that those chin piercings are actually wearing him as an accessory, not the other way round! This cover is truly remarkable and David Draiman adds that grit that takes this to a higher level. Goosebumps every single time.
I don't know if one can call a remake by the same artist a 'cover', but Depeche Mode redid their own song from the 80's 'But Not Tonight" for their concert tour in 2014 (year?) The new incarnation has the same words, and generally the same melody, but the vocalist switched from Gahan to Gore and the arrangement moved from 80's synth to a piano / vocalist stripped down presentation. Hard to imagine it's the same guys. Another of the same band / different take songs is REO Speedwagon, who redid their 70's hit 'Ridin' the Storm Out' for an XM radio unplugged show in 2000-something. Again, it may as well be a different song and may as well be a different band, except that Cronin sings both.
@@DaP84 that tone where he really pinches the notes in his throat (The Game, Stricken, etc) seem to be the ones he has the most issue with. Overall he's still amazing live, but you can usually count on a few weird notes. The "Rah Rah" ad lib he does in The Game usually comes out more like "quack quack"
David Draiman (the singer) is a trained Jewish Temple Cantor (the person singing to call people to worship) as was his father and grandfather. Which is part of why he's so talented.
Many thanks to Simon & Garfunkel, they have a huge catalogue of work and have influenced MANY current artists.....thanks to them for writing and recording this classic first over 50 years ago, warning us to not turn our backs on the world and it's willingness to embrace "SILENCE"........they made it possible for Disturbed, Pentatonix and others to re-interpret this great piece of music......also, mad props to the video makers....so moving.......
Grew up w/simon/Garfunkel this just brought the message they were giving about the future who would of known~Disturbed brought it to life in such a “Justice” of another Artists vision. Bow down challenge!!
This song has been covered a hundred times but there are only three must-listen versions: the original by Simon and Garfunkel, this one, and the one by Pentatonix - in that order.
It seems like there are not that many suggestions in the comments so I'll give it a shot. The thing you need to know is that this is not a very typical Disturbed sound. However, if you enjoyed this song, you might also want to check out more ballad type songs from them. "Hold on to memories" and "A reason to fight" are both great. I would like also to hear your thoughts on the cover of Sting's song they did "If I ever lose my faith in you". If you would like to get more of an authentic Disturbed sound, you have a wide range of sons to choose from: "Down with the sickness" - a classic, you have definitely heard parts from it "Stupify" - also an iconic Disturbed song from an early album "The light" - the newer sound when they incorporated more melodic sounding things into their old style "Are you ready" - flagman of one of their recent albums "Bad man" - an interesting song with a clear meaning from their latest 2022 album
The good and rage about the state humanity 's struggle to communicate, and how even music can even fail to communicate the connection between human beings or human beings. David's face said all!!!!! I love those guys. 😂
***** The Warning ***** "And the people bowed and prayed, to the neon gods they made." ~ Paul Simon "And the people bowed and prayed, to the golden calf they made." ~ Old Testament ~ "The Sound of Silence" performed by Disturbed. . "The Sound of Silence" by Simon & Garfunkel, Recorded in March 1964
to get a good comparison of Disturbed's musical spektrum, now that you've heard this, you should check out "Down with the Sickness", and i would also suggest the album version (or full version) vs the video or radio version.
The way he’s looking at the camera with his head tilted down and looking straight at the camera is a classic example of what’s called a “Kubrick Stare”.
Yes he has piercings bottom below lip I might add he takes them out when he visits home and family~ they have a lot of great songs listen to Down with the sickness and wrong side of heaven those will give you a real feel of “Disturbed”
Right off the bat.. Is this in his face? I tend to have the same reaction to a lot of people like that LOL. But I'm probably 30 years older than you at least. I knew I was going to enjoy this video immediately😂
As a music reactor, I'm surprised you haven't posted any content of Dimash Qudaibergen. (Unless I'm completely blind) He's incredibly technically gifted. I recommend starting with SOS 2017. It will be an amazing ride.
They are piercings. I used to have two posts in my lip that the jewelry screws onto. They kind of look like thumbtacks with screws on the end. I had jewelry similar to his.
I love how you mention his eyes, only for him to sing about his eyes. Im not 100% certain about his chin piercings but they are removable as he has so much respect for his grandfather he never had tattoos done and has piercings done so he can remove them when he visits him.
This version of this song truly matches the lyrics in a way even the original does not. Even Paul Simon said the song belongs to Disturbed now, and he even put this version on his own site for a time. Recommendation: Down with the Sickness, The Light, and You’re Mine are good choices.
Recently watched an interview David did with The Charismatic Voice, another reactor, and he has since ceased wearing the double lebret because, to paraphrase his words, he wanted to stop being a 50 year old Hot Topics kid. You may also like the version Disturbed did with Myles Kennedy of Alter Bridge in a duet with David.
this was a remake of the old Simon and Garfunkel song. The growing tempo of the song reflects the increasing desperation of the lyrics, unfortunatly you kind of lessen that effect by frequently pausing the song and breaking the tempo
I love Disturbed, Girl you have no idea how much hate this band gets from People on the internet its insane, love your reaction, yes that was a piercing David took them out though he said after turning 40 out they goes
Your youth and shallow perspective of life is obvious. The words , message and delivery were epic. It appears to go right over your head. It's a deep profound warning about human nature & technology that transcends generations. You missed the completely. We are so visual (the material world) go back and read the words.❤
I love this version of "Sound of Silence." It was a favorite of my late father. There is a similar bass cover by TH-cam artist Bobby Bass. Definitely check it out!
This has always been a great song by Paul Simon. This version though to me, and I love so many songs and genres, this version to me is the most PERFECT song I have ever heard. Period.
We finally found someone who can sing the 1964 song normally, because as far as I could see, it was just a cat meowing! That's right!!! David was fucking so good!!!!!🙃🙃
yes those are piercings. He has since removed them. This is a cover. The original artist were Simon and Garfunkel and they have since said that this is now his song. David is a Jewish Cantor (trained singer) . You should do Journey or RUSH... Do RUSH 2112.... it is a 7 part dystopian story in a song where music brings down the ruling priests. Keep up the good work and energy
Check out down with the sickness but don't do the radio version do the full album version. But I do have to warn you it's a little quote unquote disturbing 😂
This song is just gut wrenching.. but.. "What about these piercings!".. lol. I love this version soo much. The only part I don't really like is the sound of his long R.
you might want to listen to the lyrics - they are the story - do you even know what a tenement is? No offence dude but you come across as a maroon - is that what you are going for?
@Polyphemus89 Thank you. How does that affect MY opinion? BTW, I appreciate the respectful debate. I enjoy my views being challenged. It's the best way to learn in my opinion but I really like philosophy.
@@godropkicks3219 I guess I would just say that if you’re a fan of them you would respect their opinion. It seems like maybe you’re just not a fan of the genre and hate the cover even though musically it is objectively very good? I do definitely respect that you enjoy a good debate, too many people nowadays have lost the ability to respectfully disagree. Wish you the best!
You should have watched the live version from Conan O'Brien. It's impressive. Why are you so obsessed with his appearance? Yes, it's a piercing. Such an unprofessional reaction
You act like someone who had been drinking. , People do not USE OMG as you are, Paul Simon the original writer said the way David sings the song as the way it should be , THERE is A MESSAGE in the SONG, I think you missed,

Theatre Kid Reacts to Disturbed: Sound Of Silence LIVE
th-cam.com/video/NG7RZgGedRo/w-d-xo.html
I grew up listening to this song, but I never 'heard' it until this version. The words are even more relevant today than they were in the 60s.
Total eye opener
Exactly.
I'm sure that those chin piercings are actually wearing him as an accessory, not the other way round! This cover is truly remarkable and David Draiman adds that grit that takes this to a higher level. Goosebumps every single time.
Those piercings, …mmmm good he sports them well!!
Seeing him in concert is off the chain! In my 60’s seen him 10times can’t wait til he hits Atlanta illlll be there! Rock on
David took them out after turning 40 he said so in an interview :)
I don't have a list of top 5 covers, but this is definitely on it. Making a great song even better is so difficult and they did it.
I don't know if one can call a remake by the same artist a 'cover', but Depeche Mode redid their own song from the 80's 'But Not Tonight" for their concert tour in 2014 (year?) The new incarnation has the same words, and generally the same melody, but the vocalist switched from Gahan to Gore and the arrangement moved from 80's synth to a piano / vocalist stripped down presentation.

Again, it may as well be a different song and may as well be a different band, except that Cronin sings both.
Those are definitely in his face 😂 he's had them for at least 15 years. He sounds spot on live also, which blew my mind when I was younger
He stopped wearing them last year though. I don't know if he gave a reason, but he is 50 and his kid's like 10 so I'm sure it was just time.
He has pitch probs live often, a bit off lot of times. I wonder why, cause his range is great. Might be stage monitoring

I first heard Simon and Garfunkels version way back in the late sixties.
When I heard this version I got chills.
Grew up w/simon/Garfunkel this just brought the message they were giving about the future who would of known~Disturbed brought it to life in such a “Justice” of another Artists vision. Bow down challenge!!
I have seen disturbed 10 times in concert I’m in my 60’s plan on seeing them again when they hit Atlanta!!!
This song has been covered a hundred times but there are only three must-listen versions: the original by Simon and Garfunkel, this one, and the one by Pentatonix - in that order.
I once heard the original Simon and Garfunkel song was a warning about what could happen and Disturbed’s version is anger at what has happened
It's that we didn't heed that warning.
@@wildcountry72 Yes. That is what has happened.
Agreed 👍
It seems like there are not that many suggestions in the comments so I'll give it a shot.
The thing you need to know is that this is not a very typical Disturbed sound. However, if you enjoyed this song, you might also want to check out more ballad type songs from them.

If you would like to get more of an authentic Disturbed sound, you have a wide range of sons to choose from:
"Down with the sickness" - a classic, you have definitely heard parts from it
"Stupify" - also an iconic Disturbed song from an early album
"The light" - the newer sound when they incorporated more melodic sounding things into their old style
"Are you ready" - flagman of one of their recent albums
"Bad man" - an interesting song with a clear meaning from their latest 2022 album
"Believe" is another beautiful song from them too.
Both excellent suggestions! Hold on to Memories first (most gentle).
Out of all the versions of this song, this is my favorite. Disturbed is awesome, David's vocal range is fucking amazing. Sorry for the vulgarities.
The good and rage about the state humanity 's struggle to communicate, and how even music can even fail to communicate the connection between human beings or human beings. David's face said all!!!!!
I love those guys. 😂

"The Sound of Silence" by Simon & Garfunkel, Recorded in March 1964
Excellent reaction do Down With The Sickness next will not disappoint.
to get a good comparison of Disturbed's musical spektrum, now that you've heard this, you should check out "Down with the Sickness", and i would also suggest the album version (or full version) vs the video or radio version.
Another one that I just realized you hadn't done yet is "Pull Me Under" by Dream Theater, I think given your day job that song will be especially fun
FULL LENGTH VERSION, please!
This used to be my fave video for reactions... but now I'm hooked in "Hi Ren" by Ren.... Independent artist who is just conquering the internet....
The way he’s looking at the camera with his head tilted down and looking straight at the camera is a classic example of what’s called a “Kubrick Stare”.
To get an idea of their typical sound, look up ,”Down with the sickness “.
Just a note...yes they are "Labret" piercings and not as painful as you would think ;)
Yes he has piercings bottom below lip I might add he takes them out when he visits home and family~ they have a lot of great songs listen to Down with the sickness and wrong side of heaven those will give you a real feel of “Disturbed”
They are called snake bites and attached inside of the lip.
Right off the bat.. Is this in his face? I tend to have the same reaction to a lot of people like that LOL. But I'm probably 30 years older than you at least. I knew I was going to enjoy this video immediately😂
They definitely were chin peircings, i believe he took them out a couple years ago, but had them for quite some time
As a music reactor, I'm surprised you haven't posted any content of Dimash Qudaibergen. (Unless I'm completely blind)
He's incredibly technically gifted. I recommend starting with SOS 2017. It will be an amazing ride.
This is a great cover by Disturbed, the song was originally written and released by Paul Simon, of the duo, Simon and Garfunkel in 1964.
This artist is normally very hard heavy metal
They are piercings. I used to have two posts in my lip that the jewelry screws onto. They kind of look like thumbtacks with screws on the end. I had jewelry similar to his.
“Is this in his face?” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Those are called snake bites and yes gauged piercing
I love how you mention his eyes, only for him to sing about his eyes.
Im not 100% certain about his chin piercings but they are removable as he has so much respect for his grandfather he never had tattoos done and has piercings done so he can remove them when he visits him.
Charis, definitely watch the live performance on the Conan show. With the orchestra, and his performance, truely awesome!!

Down With The Sickness
Stupify
Ten Thousand Fist's (cover)
And so many more!

The Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel is sad resignation.
The Sound of Silence by Disturbed is Listen, DAMMIT!

Yes those are piercings
David Draiman is operatically trained... just so you know.
Have you seen "I'm Going Slightly Mad" by Queen???
Paul Simon gave this song to them he was so ecstatic with this version..LISTEN TO THE WORDS AND MEANING...DONT INTERRUPT..COMMENT AT END..
I love Disturbed, Girl you have no idea how much hate this band gets from People on the internet its insane, love your reaction, yes that was a piercing David took them out though he said after turning 40 out they goes
I love your channel

Amen Amen!!! Challenge any other to re~make another Artists message and do such Justice with respect!! 🤟✅💋🎵
I wonder how Paul Simon feels after finding out he wrote this song for David Draimon and didn't even know it
so beautiful disturbed performance is amazing 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰😍
Ok, I think it's time you reacted to Queensryche Take Hold of The Flame live in Tokyo. You will be impressed
We finally found someone who can sing the 1964 song normally, because as far as I could see, it was just a cat meowing! That's right!!! David was fucking so good!!!!!🙃🙃
David was trained as a cantor.
Ooooooooh
David was trained to be a cantor, but chose rock instead. That's why he has that range.
Prepare to get your mind completely blown.
WOW! Girl, you look like a Young Laura Branigan. She was a Singer. Gloria was a big hit of hers.
yes those are piercings. He has since removed them.
This is a cover. The original artist were Simon and Garfunkel and they have since said that this is now his song. David is a Jewish Cantor (trained singer)
.
You should do Journey or RUSH... Do RUSH 2112.... it is a 7 part dystopian story in a song where music brings down the ruling priests.
Keep up the good work and energy
If you do down with the sickness, do not do the official video do a lyric video, the official one cuts out part of the song
Live version from the Conan O'Brien show, best version.
yes its in his face lol
Jon bon jovi livin on a prayer reaxtionor you could do poison something to believe in
Do hey you by disturbed
Indeed that is a piercing.
Talk after SONG,also,how old are you?
Your should do the live on Conan o'brien too
Next video you should review Prisoner by Ankor!!
Check out down with the sickness but don't do the radio version do the full album version. But I do have to warn you it's a little quote unquote disturbing 😂
You heard a great song like that and you're worried about the piercings in his mouth that ruined the video for me
Pls react to one of Jay Samuelz‘ songs
Hey Charis love your reactions quick question how come you don’t show your belly button anymore
ReDo.... The Conan live, it's just a lot better...by far, do it again 👍
This song is just gut wrenching.. but.. "What about these piercings!".. lol. I love this version soo much. The only part I don't really like is the sound of his long R.
Hello beautiful, I recommend that you listen to korpiklaani ( vodka ) and Finntroll-Häxbrygd please please 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤘🏼🇪🇨👍🏼😊
I like the original too but Disturbed wins imo
He really destroyed this song. I couldn't listen anymore.
what ???????????
you might want to listen to the lyrics - they are the story - do you even know what a tenement is? No offence dude but you come across as a maroon - is that what you are going for?
Yes it is exactly what I am going for.
Metal and theatrics? Mein Hertz Brentt piano version. Rammstein. Your welcome
Dude I feel like rammstein is soo over looked these days, like imo they are top tier for their genre
Grow up!
Please do the Conan live version Better than this.
We all have our own opinions but as a Simon and Garfunkel fan, this is horrible. One of the worst covers I have ever heard. If you like it, be you.
I mean, they liked it so…
@@Polyphemus89 Could you please finish your sentence? I don't like to assume what people mean.
@@godropkicks3219 Simon and Garfunkel have publicly acknowledged the cover and praised it
@Polyphemus89
Thank you. How does that affect MY opinion?
BTW, I appreciate the respectful debate. I enjoy my views being challenged. It's the best way to learn in my opinion but I really like philosophy.
