This beautiful woman weeping was the best reaction I've ever seen
Amen
Some people can hear everything that went into the performance
@@randyjohnson805 i can
If I didn't already know the song it would have made me cry, but Disturbed's version does give me chills every time I hear it
Sori's reaction actually brought tears to MY eyes. Epic song, amazing woman.
I am a 70 year old Great Grandmother, had never heard of Disturbed, I have watched at least 11 reviewers just this afternoon of this song. Each and every time I hear it I get goose bump and tear up. There is something in the way they have done this song that is so very touching. I decided to listen to more of thier music because of the choices in songs.
I'm 78 grandmother and I've been listening and watching this for the last few days and I get chills, goosebumps, forget to breathe. People say Simon and Garfunkel sent a message but Disturbed is yelling because nobody listened. WOW They are now.
That fact that she doesn’t even watch the whole video and just his voice can cause that type of beautiful reaction is powerful.
As a man who lives with bipolar and schizophrenia, it is a song that I put on when I start to lose the battles with my hallucinations or depression side of things. Sometimes both. It took me years to do it, but I found the strength to open up about my illnesses and I no longer hide them. It has cost me friends, because I refused to put up a poker face and play happy, but it has also kept me safe from myself. As I told someone else... it took me breaking the sound of silence and getting help that saved my life. When someone lives with depression in silence... they will die and it likely will be by their own hand.
#speakupforlee
May God be with us all.
love this response and love to you.
I know this response is a bit late but as a person who suffered suicidal depression for many years - and ultimately should never have survived the time I actually acted on it - I love seeing/reading/hearing about people who have battled through depression and manage to come out the other side.
Best of luck to you and it might not mean much but a complete stranger like myself is very proud of you for getting yourself better.
It means the same to me
God bless you ! I wish the best for you ! My daughter is a fellow sufferer!
Jesus Christ, Sori's reaction to this song is exactly what the Internet was made for. No words needed, just tears. That's how you know a song can move you.

Well, you got part of that right. Jesus Christ! Not a swear word!, but an exclamation!!! He is exactly what not just the internet, but we all are made for. No words needed, just tears. Thank You Lord Jesus!
I tear up at the same point for the same reason.
@@rtrdbich me too
There is something ineffably beautiful about watching someone moved to tears by art.
Thank you, Sori.
Aww ur welcome❤️-Sori✌🏻
Its why I think reaction videos are so popular. We want to see the humanity in other people.
Indeed! Genuine emotion is powerful. I was cool until 4:18, and then between the song and the strong reaction to it, yep, got me too. Thanks for posting this.
Agree Devil Dog
OOOOrrrrah... bro.
David “the lead singer” said they covered this song from a perspective of anger at people for failing to heed the warning of the original song, that no one communicated with each other anymore, all they did was watch TV “the neon god”.. and instead of starting to communicate all we have done is replace tv with cell phones... he also said this was the hardest song he had ever sang... he is a classically trained opera singer, which sounds crazy for a metal singer haha... this was one of my fav songs as a kid in the 70s.. this and behind blue eyes by the who
He was trained as a cantor, not in opera. Cantors lead services and sing service music, and they may seem indistinguishable from a cantorial soloist, who may also do those things. Both may have very good singing voices, and both may have had extensive musical training.
The cantor, however, has something extra: a deep background in Jewish worship and Hebrew language, knowledge of both present and past liturgies, and training in leading and teaching a wide variety of Jewish musical forms. A cantor is clergy, qualified to officiate at all lifecycle events (weddings, funerals, namings) and to provide pastoral support.
You mean Behind Blue Eyes by Limp Bizkit. Haha jk
@@Itzinmynature I was thinking.. Whats his though on the rock remake of behind blue eyes😂
@@Itzinmynature love that version lol, love the original as well but Limp Bizkit didn't ruin the song so its good lol
@@marcialavine1272 it also gives him that lovely what i can only describe as a voice that echo's through you, with this song you really feel the song because of his voice
I'm a grown ass man who never cries at anything; this brought tears to my eyes
Let em flow brother let em flow
One of the most beautifully honest reactions to this song I've EVER seen.
you're right buddy)
They are beautiful people.
I cry every time I hear it. Im 81 and without a doubt it’s the most beautiful, moving song I’ve ever heard. I love the lady’s interpretation. I play it over and over.
Yes! Knowing what the song is "really" about is timeless - TV then, cell phones now... nobody communicates, but her interpretation brought tears to my eyes. Beautiful...
SAME here Mel, God bless you ♥️
Same here!
Bless your heart.❤
Me too! Age 66 here.
How this gentleman just sits and respectfully listens to the ladies raw and vulnerable reaction was a thing of beauty to watch
I thought the same he's a good man with respect for her..
True story. Propers to this man. He gave her her space. If they're together, which really doesn't matter, but if they are, that's awesome. That's actually kind of exactly what the song is about. He's listening to what she has to say.
INORITE!?!
He sits there and stared off to the window or wall because he's already seen this 5 times. What's with that video? Kist stills? No wonder he found it boring. The real video to this production is flat out amazing.
Yeah. I can sense that like my husband, he might not fully understand why she is crying, much like my own husband, but he is willing to listen to why, just like my husband. I’ve seen one piece of entertainment make my husband cry. It was Sons of Anarchy, when one of the bikers died. He isn’t a cryer, but he had lost an old biker buddy right before that. He feels things deeply but expressed it differently. I get that Vin is much the same way. He sits like a stoic and thinks through his emotions, and puts them to words, but he always wants Sori to go first.
I'm a hard-ass Royal Canadian Armoured Corps retired officer that rarely shows any emotion ( ask my wife and kids)... but I dropped a tear or two at the exact same time as Sori... humanity brings us all together.... stay safe
At these times it should but alas … stay safe from Gozo, Malta 🇲🇹
Hey Mark. I'm a hard arsed ex Navy gunnery officer and same here!
Veteran here, seen/done more than my fair bit of shit, this and the original moves me in ways few songs do.
@@PrinsPrygel thx for your service. Brothers in arms, brothers in humanity.
Songs that bring a tear to my eye, this is one of them too. Cheers brother from another country. OIF Veteran here, this one does that to me and a few Sabaton songs hit close to home.
She FELT that song! That's when you know it's an amazing song
I'm not sure how anyone could NOT feel that song, lol. It's amazing and gives me goosebumps and chills! My mother-in-law played that song a lot when my husband was a boy and when I showed him Disturb's version of the song, he immediately loved it as well. It's amazing and wonderful and DEEP!
I had the same reaction she did. Seeing her react that way made me go again lol. Great reaction.
It's amazing how Disturbed remade this song I grew up on and the passion they put in blew Simon and Garfunkel version away.... Best reaction I've ever seen she gets into music like alot of us do she had me in happy tears 😊💯
Outstanding review bravo 👏👏👏
This singer David, was raised Orthodox Jew. He was trained in classical singing. I believe the original song by S&G had a totally different meaning but it definitely is timeless. It can mean whatever you want it too. I have listened to every one on utube that has listened to this version and they all had a similar reaction as you guys. It does make you stop and think! One comment about you both. I hear you know the Bible but speak with some filthy words. Children may be watching and God knows all. Just sayin ✌️
This song will hit you hard when the at most down time you have in life.
I really like this song by Simon & Garfunkel, but this version is a masterpiece
I think the song was appropriate for both eras.
The video is pretty good to go along with this version. His building of the tension and his visceral emotion is amazing. Really did the original justice.
@@MickSkitz -Yeah, I totally agree with you. I never really got the Simon and Garfunkel version. Their version is much lighter than the lyrics imply. I like their version but this version is EPIC. I love the vulnerability at the beginning and the anger near the end. Great song and great version of the song.
@robert tidwell Oh you mean this version that got endorsed by Paul Simon himself? You mean that one? God it must suck to be you...
It certainly is a masterpiece....I'm 75 and have never been brought to tears like when I listen to this incredible gentleman...
If you don't weep listening to this song, you were listening without hearing.
That moment in the third verse when he goes up an octave is one of the greatest moments in musical history. Got me the same way as Sori.
The best of the reactionist people... they let the song play without interrupting it
Others missed the powerfulness of the song when they stopped it!
It grabs you and doesn't let go and ther tears fall
This right here
@@BostonGemmieRocks you're exactly right! When they stop the video to discuss something they're not listening. And just like an everyday life we as people do it all the time to others and it's done to us . We have to stop the voices in our mind when people are you talking to us. This is how we can relate by listening. So the words of Silence is so true now as it was back in the 60s. Cuz back then like myself tune out and lost out.
the video can be taken down if they play it whole cause of copyright issues, alteast that's what I've heard.
Holy shit, she went to a very special place in her heart and mind thru this song. Art should move you this way. Nothing to be ashamed of. Its beautiful to see someone come to tears over an amazing talent.
It happens to me every time I listen to the scorpions " still loving you" that's exactly my state of mind pretty much
Slim C right on, let it touch your soul
Well said.
This remake is by far the BEST I've ever heard. You can tell how awesome by the "silent" reaction when it ended. That's REAL people! This song will get right into your soul!
Not just his voice but the meaning behind the words. I love this
Its crazy how lyrics 60 years later still hold true
More so
Especially as many of us talk on social media platforms like this one without a single word coming from our lips in the whole day. Filling the silence with the voices of content creators like these as a comfort. To make us feel some semblence of humanity in a world dominated by the neon god we made.
Her's is the most pure reaction one can have to a song like this. It's a testament to David Draiman's voice. I'm a full grown man and when that song reaches apex I feel my chest grow tight, my skin prickle, and my vision waters. It really is a masterpiece of a cover of an already beautiful song.
You big baby. Me too. 😢
Me too I'm 30 years old an this song gets me
Me also. Superb way of describing your reaction, BTW
It puts me in a puddle of tears EVERYTIME!
“As silent raindrops fell” *Tear rolls down her cheek
I know. You can't make up this stuff. It was meant to roll down at that very moment, and it still gets me after countless views.
@@brentcrude8565 Right?!?!? I think it's one of the most beautiful and moving things I've ever seen.
@@jeffk1482 holy shit. That is so incredibly beautiful
op3crimsin wao
When he sang the verse "Like silent raindrops fell" as a tear streamed down Sori's cheek.........WOW! That Broke me Bro!
“Probably don’t have a clue what it’s about, but I have my own story”
That my friends were s the power of timeless songwriting with beautiful voices. We just have to learn to listen again . Beautiful reaction by her. Stunning rendition by Disturbed.
Soris reaction is a perfect example to how music can make you feel, make ya think, it shapes your life.
I cry every time, so I appreciate Sori's emotions, and that she didn't try to hide her tears.
I had the opportunity of seeing Disturbed live last month in Pennsylvania.
I didn't have any idea of the setlist, so when they played this short set of songs for suicide awareness, and this song came out I was frozen.
I couldn't see or hear anything else but David's powerful voice. Imagine a bunch of metalheads, with their cellphones or lighters raised, people crying, singing this song at one voice. It was something I will never forget.
I felt my chest warm and my eyes were literally crying.
Right at that moment this song became the best cover of a classic song I've ever heard.
Dude you're one lucky man
Charlie Parra yes yes and yes
The memory you have of the concert during the Sound of Silence will stay will you forever. You will remember how you felt for a lifetime. Thank you for sharing....I sure hope I can see them someday David is so awesome the perfect song for him to sing. I loved when I first heard it!
Didn't the singer die before that? Am I wrong?
@@joehalbop1928 nope bro. The singer is very much alive and well :)
Showed my father in law this. He saw Simon and Garfunkel sing this live and this blew him away! He plays it at every family get together now
In Italy we say” he sings with his heart in his hand”
I love that. In the US, we say he wears his heart on his sleeve when he sings.
We have built a gigantic, neon idol to ourselves. We don't really notice that other people exist anymore, we have built a massive cult of consumerism without realizing that we are losing our humanity.
When it says the people bowed and prayed to the neon God they made, I think of a billion people bowed staring at their phones... you're welcome.
@@gerardcartier3455 - exactly
@@gerardcartier3455 Considering the lyrics were written in the 60es, its probably the TV, but nonetheless it is a functional metaphor for consumerism just as silence is a functional metaphor for complacency or non-opposing the status quo. (sorry, i can't find the proper word, english is not my primary language).
Bradley McDaniel exactly
@@gerardcartier3455 boomer
Garfunkel once summed up the song's meaning as "the inability of people to communicate with each other, not particularly internationally but especially emotionally, so what you see around you are people unable to love each other.
I can understand how his voice, could bring you to tears. He's remarkable.
"Heavy Metal Singers Can't Sing," they said... David Draiman: "Here, hold my WHA_AH_AH_AH!!!"
Ohhh yeah. He blew that notion out of the water with this song.
5:09 is literally the most perfectly timed moment in reaction history
Perfectly timed in that it wasn't...but I get you! It's stunning to watch.
Wow! You couldn't time that tear better! Awesome song - awesome reaction/review
Haha I was thinking the exact same thing!
I agree
Either one of you's with no good music if you heard it. Great song. Are you two clowns that don't know it was a cover song from Simon & Garfunkel give with the programs or quit doing this you have no Talent whatsoever and you don't have a right to criticize. Because you really don't know what music is
5:05 she cried! That's how you know that this song is doing something right!
The Heartless Hero 2077 Not with me!
There is a much more emotional Song outhere.....Johnny Cash _ Hurt!
OMG....THIS Song is Sad!
@@darthdeluxe_1 "Look, there is another song. THAT song is sad, not this one!" Because, you know there's only one sad song at a time.
@@HorseloverFat1984 ouch that hurt..
@@darthdeluxe_1 Everyone has their song. For me it's My Old Man from Zac Brown. But she clearly feels the tone and lyrics of this song in her soul. Hurt is another good one. Nine Inch Nails did it originally, which I'm sure you know, but Johnny did the same thing as Disturbed and changed that tone and gave it another emotion.
Brad MacMillan OK...But i also dont like the voice of the Disturbed Singer.
Tastes are different.
I know this video is four years old but your video hit me. Sori, bless you for your optimistic take and for your tears. Vin you hit the nail right on the head. To not know this song's history and pick out the difference in the flashing neon light and the naked light after your first exposure...wow. I'm struck by the emotional intelligence of both of you.
You nailed it! Everything I wanted to say but short and concise. He got it wonderfully and take was very interesting. Have not heard that reaction on any other Reaction, but is definitely a valid observation
Reading the comments and everyone is focusing on her reaction, and it's fantastic....but my man was feeling it just as much. His eyes started shining too
First the voice grabs you. Then the lyrics. Then the orchestration. Then the incredible build-up to the climax, and then the final quiet words, and you sit there in awe. What a masterpiece.
The lavian posted this on another reaction and I think this explanation is the best
"Simon and Garfunkles version was a warning.
Disturbeds version is rage because the warnings were ignored
Whoa
Yeah, that's a fantastic perspective.
Well
When the song was originally written... Simon had a dream, where he saw People bowing and praying to a neon god, which he explained in the lyrics and he wrote the song to warn against it's coming...
Looking at the world in 2019, it all came true with the evolution of technology
@@DarkNorthEmperor I don't know about the technology part. It only took thirty shiny pieces of silver to kill our Father's Son. Today it would be one piece of silver plated metal.
There is a difference between the bright lights that blind you, and the light that warms your back, and helps you see.
@@cmccauley1961 i agree wholeheartedly
This is the nearest interpretation to Paul Simons analogy when he originally wrote it. David Draimans version brought this up to date and brought more urgency needed in human reaction. I cry every time I watch or listen to it. Loved your reaction.
I think this is one of my most favorite responses to a video I've watched. David's vocals didn't just speak the lyrics, kind of like how the original did... he emoted them. He made you feel each word and the way it built up to the final notes... he took a good song right to GOD level.
Why does nobody know Simon and Garfunkel? Every reaction to this song, nobody knows where it comes from.
Jason I know right?!
Jason I agree. I don't even care for their music it's not my taste in music but I know they are an iconic duo.
Yeah it's pretty weird. Odd lack of music vocabulary.
Might as well ask why I don't know the songs my parents listened to and why they didn't know the songs of their parents did. People have a bad tendency to dismiss or ignore what is already there. Unfortunately a lot of people have the attitude that anything that is not new is "old hat".
Jerry D I'm the opposite. I've always had an interest in what music my parents like even if I don't care for it. To me learning old hat is knowing history.
Couldnt take my eyes off of Sori from the moment she started to struggle with emotions and the tears streaming down her face is just beautiful. Probably most of us got that same kind of feeling the first time hearing this song, and the 100th time aswell really.
I cry EVERY SINGLE TIME!!! 63 yr. old man and I sob like a baby!!! If you haven't heard it you should see the live in Houston version with vocal guest Myles Kennedy! If you are unfamiliar, he is just as powerful a singer as Draiman!! PERFECT harmony!!!
First time I heard this song, I can only describe it as one if those moments where you realise you're witnessing something important. Or like... You're witnessing part of the "something bigger" that gives our lifes significance. Something you're otherwise too distracted to notice 98% of the time.
I get goosebumps every time I hear this, and I’ve heard it a lot.
Paul Simon phoned Disturbed to tell them that this was the best cover of his song that he ever heard.
The first time I heard him sing this song, it chilled me to the core of my being, that a hard rock/heavy metal artist could take a 1960s folk song and make it his own is absolutely fantastic, his power, his passion, his intensity, his incredible range, his ability to make you feel the music, he is a musical genius, pure and simple.
Omg you two nailed it. Your experiences from the song were so different but so right! Vin nailed the meaning behind the song. Sori was affected by the song in a way that illustrated perfectly exactly how he logically described it. Touched.
Digo cosas diferentes porque puedo ber loque espresan uno hal hotro okey Dios lesbendiga siempre Amen 🙏
They both really GOT IT‼️🙏🏼♥️🌏🌺
And I have heard this song hundreds of times performed by Simon and Garfunkel. But as a 50 yrs old man I shed a tear every time I hear this version. It's that powerful and deep song and Disturbed version
really emphasizes the meaning of the lyrics and message behind it.
It's almost November 2018 and this is still the best reaction video to Sound of Silence by Disturbed. Cheers
EXACTLY and i have watched a whole lot up to this point and none of them touches me like this one...
And it still is to this day. Her reaction broke me.
She said it beautifully we all have our own story. Her reaction made me cry.
Vin, I loved how you saw in this, “God’s words” 💓
Sari, I appreciated your thoughts (sorry for your pain)😢
I too hear and listen... and have yet my own interpretation.
It truly is an individual experience.
That’s the beauty of a great song, and an incredible singer! 😇
Simon and Garfunkel 👍🏻 👍🏻
“disturbed” ....I think they brought this to a whole new level of intensity and greatness!😊
original is by simon and garfunkel. after hearing this cover, the writer (paul simon) contacted david draiman and told him how much he enjoyed the cover.
Simon & Garfunkel are the original artits. Paul Simon wrote it in 1964. He said in an interview that the song is about peoples inability to communicate with each other, not internationally but on an emotional level a d so all around us we see people who are unable to love each other."
He wrote it in 62 when he was 21. That quote is Garfunkels.
And it`s still going on to Day, maybe even more so
It's what makes this version more poignant to me, Simon and Garfunkel gave us a soulful warning but we ignored it - so Disturbed force us to listen to the message so we cannot ignore it any longer. It's a powerful 1-2 punch and I think that's why it's so emotional and effective.
Superb cover, superb reaction.
the death of jfk had a hand in inspiring its creation if i remember correctly.
and part of what turned me hermit, is the inability of people to communicate, i dont count unclear, suspect "Communication" as it is easily missed or mistaken, i tired of being treated like shite because, im not a mind reader, and wont just go along to get along, when people are being idiots.... reguardless of what "Side" they are on or "tribe" they are part of... bah....
Chris Ormie For me, the Disturbed Cover is the most Boring Song i know.
Seeing Sori‘s tears says all. I am crying, too!!❤️❤️❤️
After watching hundreds of reaction videos most people who tear up or cry are men, is so refreshing to see a Lady cry to it.
There's something special about his voice which just brings out the emotions. Obviously the lyrics and music has a very important part but omg his voice just does it to so many it's unbelievable.
It’s ok, tears ran down my face the first time I heard this version of the song. I still well up every time I hear it
At the end when they sat in the STUNNED SILENCE...i feel ya
If there are ever awards for reactions, you would have my vote. I could see the exact moment the song touched, no grabbed, your soul. Thank you for such a touching reaction!
I cry every time. This song is a religious experience.
Holy shit her description was just simply EPIC
As often as I've heard this, it still gives me chills.
My personal experience is you don't listen to this song you EXPERIENCE this song.. It reaches down to your inner being!! ❤️ So freaking amazing!! 💖
This song was written in the 70s. He was predicting how life world would be for us. We speak on our phones (not speaking ) nobody to listen ( no reaction) songs not being heard they’re on our phones. The neon god we made Technology the most important thing our lives. Here we are in 2022 !!!
When Paul Simon heard this version he told David this was now his song
When he say no one dares disturbed the sound of silence. I thought he was talking about how people don't like to rock the boat with social norms, so they rather follow the crowd then be looked at as different or an outcast. The truth isn't relevant when the lie is more comfortable.
Yes they're called SHEEPLE NOWADAYS!!! THEY PRAY TO THE NEON GOD THEY MADE !!!
Sori, what a beautiful soul.
Ive watched many react to this video and various takes on its meaning but yours by far was i thought was the best and most well expressed. I am a child of the 60s and remember the original well and the profound meaniing then and how it is even more prophetic now.
I LOVE your reaction to this song! The emotions, the deep thoughts you shared, the exchange with each other...all of it. Fantastic reaction! Thank you, and keep it up. ♡
They played it on a veterans day, it broke my heart see a lot of them with tears in their eyes at the end of this Song....the horror they must seen in their past...
@love layne stfu
One of the brilliant things about this song is the duality of the two main themes. Both light and sound are shown in two ways. There's the light of the neon god, the grand distraction, versus the natural light that actually reveals the truth. There's the silence that arises from the screaming of the gears of our ephemeral empires, against the true silence where introspection can arise. The abject social isolation, the dehumanization of the technological, is clearly stated here, and has only grown more poignant as we go further down the road in the direction of the neon god. Solid 10. The great songs echo down the years, because they talk about experiences that will always be part of being human.
Patrick Tracy. Thank you for such an eloquent and accurate explanation.
@ Patrick Tracy "There's the light of the neon god, the grand distraction, versus the natural light that actually reveals the truth."
I like how you said that. That's exactly how I felt about that line.
And the DISTURBED versions video has instruments on an "ARK". And writing music script on old parchment with Ink pen. Could that be the concept that the Art of musicianship is becoming rare?
I find this song as a warning. Nuclear war was a real threat back in the 60s.
So well said, Mr. Tracy. Very perceptive view.
This song, and the way David Draiman sings it, seems to perfectly capture the current pain and despair that many Americans are feeling right now as the silence from policy makers is deafening .
Wished I could thumbs up a bunch for this comment.
It is classic that the usual "reaction" to this band performing the Sound of Silence is normally ... SILENCE! It truly takes a few seconds to take it all in. It builds, and builds, and builds then it is over and it requires a few seconds for the brilliance to set in.
"…we have people unable to touch other people, unable to love other people.
This is a song about the inability to communicate."
-Paul Simon
I would have liked to hear this with Lzzy Hale in a harmony situation. He's worked with her in the past, and they sound amazing together. Also, the original conveyed the same message without being heavy-handed, BUT! Paul Simon himself actually liked the cover, so I'll default to the author's opinion on the matter.
S Toy From a atheist perspective or a religious perspective or neither?
David Heller in general
From a Paul Simon perspective - his quote.
S Toy My take is that the original was a polite warning about the detached direction humanity seemed to be taking, whereas Disturbed version is angry that nobody heeded this 50 year old warning, hence the more heavy handed nature of it.
That's just my interpretation, though.
So in another 50 years it'll be remade by the descendants of A.C? :)
People talking without speaking= texting
People hearing without listening= Watching TV/You Tube etc.
Sori, crying is EXACTLY what the emotion was MEANT TO EMOTE.
I love how you guys get it....thank you for taking the time to feel a 50 year old message that has BEEN IGNORED
Paul Simon was a VISIONARY that saw the future where modern day being a problem with being SILENT to others instead of gathering and enjoying others company and creating greater bonds between people.
There was no texting when this song was written though. About 40 years too early. But the wheels were in motion then with advancing technology and entertainment ruling people's lives.
Wrong song was wrote iij n early 60s long before texting
@@johnthorne4368 Paul Simon had a dream, and the song is a warning. It is literally in the lyrics of the song. So the year it was writtwn is not important. The message is timeless, but imagine it being so much truer now than ever. Which makes this persons comment more valid than ever.
@@MoMoMyPup10 Give it another thought. The song mentions it as a warning. Get it? The year this song was written is the least of this commenters worries. Its the message.
@@kinz581e5 yeah, that's what I said. I just clarified his texting part as well. Read the rest of my comment.
Such a powerful song. Hearing this makes you sit back and think of loneliness and changing your life. Well done❤
I can listen to this song over and over. I still cry. The song is about our lives being lost to the beginning of the media. Paul Simon had this dream back in the 60s. The neon light represents the introduction of television. The musicians were no longer able to Express their feelings without being censored. Us as a world must take a stand to be able to Express how we feel without the media interference.
That was one of the most beautiful reactions to any song I have ever experienced, that was a honest reaction to a beautiful song that has been redone in a beautiful way.
Amen to that that is a true reaction
I was around when the original was released and it had the same effect; Disturbed version is just as relevant and powerful. Absolutely awesome. Wow.
I think S&G version is more sad and this one is just haunting. I get chills every time I hear this song. 🐧🐧
Peggy Penguin Yup, S&G version was sad- back then there seemed to be more time for reflection. The Disturbed version’s power is in its raw nature; the video’s monochromatic styling was spot on. Chills? I’ve had a few too...
groundzeroken, me too. As an old hippy now, the original was soft and gentle reflecting those times of calling for peace and unity. This version equally reflects these times we live in. Outstanding.
I have taken both versions like this:
Simon and Garfunkel:. This is a warning of what we are becoming
Disturbed:. This is grieving what we have become.
@@peggypenguin7290 thats what David's voice does :3 his voice rainbow is amazing
I can't believe it took me this long to find you guys! Your reactions were so pure and heartfelt, that I cried along with you, though, if I'm being honest, with a song this amazing, who couldn't? So thank you!, for sharing, and being the amazing people you are, and letting us experience such a powerful experience with you.
On a huge side note, I thought you should know, if you watch your video at 4:32 (or just watch the original song or check the lyrics) that Disturbed snuck their band name and song title into the lyrics themselves as a small easter egg for people to catch! ".. and noone dared 'Disturbed the sound of silence' " :)
look at us (most today) staying and looking at their phones...We speak with out Speaking(texting) we no longer have intimate interaction..I went out to eat and watched families staring at their phones instead of talking with each other..so sad...cell phones and social media has made us all numb...so sad
This is the most genuine heartfelt reaction of this song ive seen you earned a subscription
Over 50 years old and this song is still sadly so relevant, if not even more so.
Even the initial piano chords set the tone for this beautiful piece of soul wrenching magnificence...
🇿🇦
Her face blushing tells raw emotion..I get goosebumps everytime I hear this and feel a great empathy from all the reactions of this song.
This had me in tears with you Sori, beautiful cover, Disturbed made a good job
Dj Vianu -Simon loved this remake and applauded Disturbed.
It's like "Hurt" for a younger generation. I grew up on NIN, but that's Johnny's song now. I have much respect for S&G, my parents taught me well, but this is David's song now.
This qualifies you as a living beeing and not dulled by all the meaness around you...
Great cover but you must listen to the original (and best) version!!
Loved both your reactions. ....I would love to see your reactions to two other songs......one is THE LIVING YEARS by Mike and the mechanics. ....and the other is a 911 tribute song called IT'S BEEN 10 YEARS DADDY......I would love to see your reactions to these days songs.....thank you from a Firefighter
Johnny Cash - Hurt
Do it. BUT you have to do the music video not the lyrics only. Big difference on the delivery of the song.
This is incredible song, one of the most moving I've ever heard.
The original is better imo
Singer of nine inch nails is quoted to say it's no longer our song, upon hearing mr Cashes version.
The original is from NIN, but Cash version's better.
Matias Dimter they are both very great
5:06 touching how the first tear she shed was to the lyric “like silent raindrops fell”
Sori nailed it when she said " I probably don't have a clue what the song is about, but I have my own story.." Music, sometimes, isn't just about trying to understand the deeper meaning of it, or trying to get yourself to see the "art" behind it. Sometimes, music is a personal language that is speaking to you in your own way. This song might have meant something to Simon and Garfunkel, and something different to Disturbed, but it means something else to her, and that is what I think makes music so personal and healing. It is your own medicine, your own message and voice. Cheers Sori!
"The words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls"
I was in London recently. Yes... yes, they are. Everywhere.
Were we never see them, until it's to late,again.
I love how deeply Sori feels the music. I often get emotional listening to music of any kind. It can be so powerful.
Yes I feel some stuff sooo deeply! -Sori
Me too. I cry every single time I listen to this song, no matter how happy I am at the moment.
VinAnd Sori you NEED to listen to so far away and seize the day by avenged sevenfold, you will cry
Oh nevermind you did so far away
I started to lose it when I saw her start to cry...this song is a powerful experience.
She definitely got it. Great reaction. So amazing the understanding of the entire song in one listen.
Whenever Sori's eyes close, it's over. Done. "Destruction" achievement...unlocked.
3:37...I needed the timestamp =,)
I love this. Refreshing to see a reaction video where the people listen to the song and instead of muttering over it like self obsessed narcissists. Awesome video.
His live performances on Conan was INCREDIBLE
Also this is a song written and performed by Simon and Garfunkel. I believe it was Simon who had this dream. And it is amazing to hear the original version and go to this afterwards
Experienced. That is the only word to describe hearing this song. You don’t “listen” to it. You don’t dance to it. You EXPERIENCE it. S&G gave us the poetry, David Draiman gave us the warning
I have to say Sori your reaction is what i looked like on the inside when i first heard this song! Amazing Reaction! by far my fav of any chan. ever!
I've spent the weekend watching and listening to this song and all the reactions. I cry every time. David's voice is epic. The band's version of this song is epic!
Try the Live in Houston version with Myles Kennedy as guest vocalist!!! The harmonies will BLOWW YOU AWAY!!!!
@@berniegiacobe7534 That was beautiful. I can't believe that could get any more powerful, but together they were amazing. Thank you for recommending it!
@@michelecalla928 Those notes that Myles hits just blow me away!!! I'm being repetitive but I'm in AWE!!!!!!!
I think she nailed it!!!!! David's voice is amazing!!! He trained classically as a cantor...
Vin, that's too literal....neon lights is technology.... The sound of silence is alluding to noisy things, ppl just have been lost in the noise of silent....saying nothing, just nonsense
It is about technologies taking away good things, leaving us to lose our humanity....we're talking we aren't saying smart stuff...ppl are getting angrier as our world get more hateful
I’ve been obsessed with Disturbed for 20+ years and to have listened to a TON of reactionary videos and you two are, by far, the BEST. You not only could visibly SEE how it affected you, but you took the lyrics and picked them apart. Loved it!!
