Reactor-“I love a bit of gravel
David Draiman-“Hold my beer.......
One of the best live performances in music history.
Peace...
This and black by Pearl Jam unplugged
- Draiman covers roughly two-and-a-half octaves from bottom to top. His vocals are so distinctive.
-Disturbed had been nominated for a GRAMMY for Best Rock Performance for their rendition of "The Sound of Silence" while appearing on Conan.
-David: "The fact that I was sick as a dog (laughs). I remember I was definitely fighting something off, but it was a cool experience. It was cool performing with an actual orchestra. It was really vibing and the mood helped, I think, enhance the delivery. The stars just aligned that night and everything went right."
With all due respect, I think you're missing the amazing artistry of what he's doing with his voice.
He's not just singing with an amazing voice. He could hit all of the notes cleanly without any rasp, if he wanted to. He's using the rasp for dramatic effect on purpose; and he really knows how to do it with perfection.
He starts the first verse lower down in the register then seamlessly transitions higher up in the register still with clean clear raspless notes, then slightly turns on the rasp before letting the rasp explode while still hitting the notes perfectly.
The last half of the line he dramatically holds the note on the word "sound" in a pure bell like tone(no rasp) and sings the last two words "of silence" in a soft yet pure denouement.
That's not just singing. That's artistry.
Agreed. David is purposefully using Vocal Fry to enhance the song and give dramatic effect. Every part of his performance was well thought out deliberate. Amazing performance!
The distortion he does with purpose to bring more emotion not because he goes high in the register and is stuck with the rasp, this man has some insane control, he can for sure sing clean like that aswell
He's a true baritone, David has one of the greatest male voices in the world.
Indeed he does. My boyfriend thinks I’m in love with him because I keep talking about his amazing voice lol (am kind of though)

@@stevehughes6097 thanks 😊
@@steffrichards4480 interesting. Strange that he isn’t capable of appreciating a thing of beauty when it is starring him in the face. 😉
How about waiting for the music to finish. What a novel idea?
"People hearing without listening" Yep... 🙄
Lol exactly. My thoughts exactly. Heard it and thought it was pretty but didn't actually listen.
I am totally blown away at the lack of research by people that are supposedly in the business...not knowing this is the cover for one of the most iconic songs ever written is beyond comprehension....Sincerely, a child of the 60;s
If they claim to be singers/songwriters and don't know this song, credibility goes out the window for me. I write in all genres (including Hip-Hop); I know ALL the famous songs in whatever genre someone can cite.
I’m laughing cause that is SO true! They’re so young and a bit giddy and uninformed of this iconic song we grew up with.
And then to end by chopping off the finale… smh
Right. Listen to Disturbed's song "Down with the Sickness." They're a metal band. :)
Thanks. I just had a listen. I'm not even a metal fan but I think I preferred it to the sound of silence. He still sings with those two different styles but it's more impactful. I like the way he throws his voice around.
Listen to stupify by disturbed
Yeah......I prefer their song "The Game" though. David's more effectively expresses in that song.
Are You Ready is awesome as well
This song touches me to my very core. His vocal performance on this rendition is utterly amazing! I have heard this song thousands of times and I still get goosebumps every time.
I know what you mean.
Same. Been watching reaction videos for hours and I cry each and every video. I'm a huge fan.
Lisa: He's very laid back...
David: I'm about to wreck her world.
No no no no no.. If he'd gone 'up' it would have KILLED the whole meaning, the whole reason for the song.
as others have mentioned, he was sitting on a stool because he was really sick and they were afraid he'd keel over. His range is fantastic, his control was learned from a young age training as a cantor. He is amazing
David Draiman.....unbelievable vocals!! Can go from velvety baritone to tenor, from clear as crystal to rasp and back on a dime! The man has a timber to his voice that unparalleled......and amazing voice control ! Try "The Game"..."The Vengeful One"...."Down With The Sickness"....great songs!
I've always admired his ability to hold a vocal fry and sing in tune simultaneosuly. He's able to blend between the styles effortlessly and instantly.
If you like this you should have a listen to Paul Dempsey covering Wrecking Ball.
Kind of makes me wonder about these people who claim to be singer/songwriters and they do not know this is a cover. I mean this isn't your average song. This song is quite famous.
There are a lot of young people who never heard of Simon and Garfunkle or were never exposed to it......you are right it is a famous classic folk song from the 60's .....this younger generation needs more exposure to the really great music of the 60's and 70's .....they are limited with the mainstream music these days ...they haven't listened to music with real meaning behind it. This band did a masterful remake of this tune....well done
There is a lot of music out there in numerous genres. People are tribal. Not surprising in the least.
Even if this is probably the greatest song ever performed.
I'm in my mid 50's and couldn't tell you the difference between a Justin Bieber song and a Hanson song and I was there when they were "popular". I have no expectations that a 20 something would know anything about a 50 year old genre that gets next to ZERO airplay anywhere but in an elevator these days. This song was already 30+ years old when she was born and probably 40+ before she started really getting into music. Seriously, where, other than right here on TH-cam have you heard a Simon and Garfunkel song in the last 20 years?
@@TheSkipinatorVids well said
It blows my mind the songs I have found out others have never heard. I was talking to a girl who serves with me in the Navy and she had never heard Stairway to Heaven or even heard of that. I thought that was physically impossible but I was raised on classic rock so I had such a different perspective
A baritone, 5 octave voice...Perfection
Exactly
Great Reaction!!! Great Smile!!
I've said this before and I'll say it again... A 1964/1965 song, written by Paul Simon and re-imagined by Disturbed in 2015; datz 50 years!! For me, this is by far the best song and cover these past 5 years!! This song literally ambushes you... catches everyone by surprise! The powerhouse vocals, the amazing arrangement, etc... just a great song incredibly re-imagined by a Heavy Metal band... done right.
BTW: You've missed the band "PINK FLOYD" thus far when reacting (ouch!!)... they are one of few bands that are The G.O.A.T.
I myself suggest the following EPIC 10 "live" songs; the studio and "Brit Floyd" versions are timeless as well!! : 1) "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" 2) "Hey You" 3) "Us and Them/Any Colour You Like/Brain Damage/Eclipse" (all 4 parts) 4) "High Hopes" 5) "Time/Breathe Reprise" 6) "Dogs" 7) "Sorrow" 8) "Pigs (3 different ones)" 9) "Welcome To The Machine" 10) "The Great Gig In The Sky" (most would state that you should listen to it's studio version). *note: PF has 4 complete concept albums that each make for an entire story; see wikipedia for info.
* "Comfortably Numb" (everyone has reacted to this one)(best guitar solo/stage design/melodic rocker ever)
Anything from the live "Pulse" DVD (1994) would be phenomenal!!
Every reaction video I have seen for this song version always bring a smile at the beginning. If you don't get excited or get goosebumps, there is something deeply wrong with you. Disturbed nailed this. Thanks for your honest reaction. Rock on!
You stopped it right before the great musical ending!
I know! I didnt realise at the time but everyone keeps saying that. I had to go back and listen to what I missed!
Lyrical audacity! Vocal audacity. Symphonic audacity. Said differently? This song is magnificent!!
Thanks for sharing this beautiful song. I subscribed to your channel today 👍 i also agree with your thoughts on his voice.
You should absolutely watch ‘Down With The Sickness’ to hear the sound they were famous for, then ‘A Reason To Fight’ (official live video. Very important). That one will make you emotional.
Thank you! Someone recommended I watch 'Down With the Sickness', I actually enjoyed it even more than this one. I will definitely check out 'A Reason To Fight'
Why did you cut off the ending of the song? Good job otherwise.
You have no clue what the song is about.... the lyrical meaning, went over your head... so his interpretation of the song sailed right past you... have a good day, Miss Lisa :)
A bit harsh, but okayyyy...
It's so sad and disappointing because it was the message that drove the tones David used. The message of the song is instrumental in understanding what, how, and why David made the stylistic choices he did. Thus it gives an even greater appreciation for David and his abilities. I expected her to comment something on this, seeing as she's a singer. One would expect that she would understand the importance that the message of the song has on how it is being sung and performed.
Why do people cut this off before the music stops? It happens a lot! What a shsme!
Yeahhh! I thought That too! Like: you’ll miss a great song ending with this orchestra timbals
Not bashing her but I personally really dislike when people react to songs without doing a little research first. It would make the reaction 10x more interesting
I read this in the comments of another reactor, and I quote, "If I had to imagine what God's Voice would sound like, this would be it."
No, David is the voice of the Devil, Art Garfunkel is the voice of an angel.
David: *hits that first vocal fry
Women everywhere: *pregnant
So many other vocal teachers have listened to to this, and still can't believe how he sings this!!
Not a dislike, but had to pull my like back for cutting the end off of a song.
This was perfect arrangement, starting low and moving higher and higher thru the song, instruments joining thru the song, lightning starting dark and getting brighter as the song progressed,
This was more of a one-off for them, “down with the sickness” is something you expect from them.
I think you will enjoy The Animal - House of the Rising Sun and Righteous Brothers- Unchained Melody
It's hilarious and adorable everyone in the comments getting offended on behalf of David. I'm sure he would be quite touched to know he has a whole arm of reaction commenters here to defend his honour!
A Terrible reaction cutting off before the end . . . . . Agggghhhhhhhhh
This song is talking about you... You that you don't wanna be disturbed and have bad dreams....
You that you have heard the song but you didn't listen to it....
Those how are truly listen to this song.....
they CRY....
This song was originally written by Paul Simon an Art Garfunkel back in the 60's at the time of Vietnam war an political unrest in the USA
first time on your channel, he was actually sick when he did that performance....loved your reaction
Seriously? You stopped it before the end? Wow.
Ah, i'm not the only one that noticed.
How are you not aware of the original? How????
You didn't really listen to the words - certainly not the meaning of the words. And you cut out the first few seconds and the last few seconds. If you are going to react to a music video, listen to and watch the whole thing, especially the words.
Yeah! The words and the message are instrumental in understanding why David chose the tones he did. It seemed like she was more like "pretty tones" than actually understanding *why* he chose those tones when, where, and how he did. They were deliberate stylistic choices. As a singer, she should understand that. And definitely at least make some comment about it.
You stopped before it ended. Bad form.
This man has a true gift. He can sing like an angle or a demon. It really gets your attention which is what this song was meant to do. He really brings the songs message out in a profound way. Very deep meaning, I love it👍👍👍
The best version of this song astonishing
"A voice of someone to lead you into battle" ... yeah, he's already done that! Check out Disturbed's Indestructible.
Thank you I will!
Listen to Immortalized. Great!
10 thousand fists goes with this sentence
Hello beautiful. Great song and great singer and I love your reaction.
Would you believe he was sick with a very high fever that night? Amazing!
@collabstreet... To get a true feel for David Draiman's vocals, I suggest you listen to the song Villify by Device (his side project...
Blessings from Brum!
This has become a standard for the band, always expected at their live gigs!
David and his brother were classically trained singers. He turned to metal and his brother is an opera singer.
Paul Simon said he wrote this after a dream and the meaning is still argued about.
The video I feel talks of the rediscovery of lost music. One island find the sheet music, the other find the instruments and travel to them...
Paul Simon saw THIS very performance on Conan and loved it.
Poor David was really poorly with a bad cold when he sung it on Conan, so I urge you to watch the official video to hear David in top form and the visuals really add to the music.

Not true reaction vid when you watch the actual vid before you post your content. Seems pretty obvious
Keep in mind he is hitting the echo marks.
Such a beautiful, moving and haunting cover of the classic track, 'The Sound of Silence'! David Draiman has showcased a delicate and refined vocal approach in 'The Sound of Silence'.
"I love a bit of gravel." HAHAHAHA.... Hold on just oooooooone minute.
God is sending a very strong Warning to ALL of US in this song....................Fools said I....you do not know.....Hear my words that a might teach you.....Take my arms...that I might reach you.....The Words of the prophets are written.... David's voice touched the emotion in every word.... You have to Listen to the words....Beautiful
He was battling the flu in this performance.
He still nailed it though, didn't he? An awesome cover of an already awesome timeless song.
it seems you are another person didn't know the original by simon and garfunkel from the 60's..and this is a cover version of it .
(i just assume because you mentioned that by no word :-)
Beautiful... and so is his singing. 😉
Wouldn't hurt if you've listened to the last 3 seconds of the song. Otherwise I liked your reaction.
David is an amazing singer. Classical trained to become a Cantor, then being the vocalist of a worldwide successful metal band for many years. You might want to check out another Disturbed song (like Down with the sickness for example) for references.
Greetings from Germany!
Thanks for watching. The fact that he is classically trained and sang in a metal band explains why I was getting so many different vibes from his voice. It created a lot of dynamic in his performance. Thanks I will check it out
If you do react to Down Wth The Sickness, use either the lyrics version or a live version (2008 at Rock an Ring is great!). Don't use the 'official' version as it is missing a crucial part of the song.
David is a classically trained cantor. He actually had the flu that night. It’s rage that people didn’t listen to when we were first warned of things to come.
well he is a singer in a metal band, so yeah, that growl is more natural for him. thankfully he has an amazing voice outside metal
THE END OF THE WORLD IS THE BASIS OF THE SONG. Thank You Paul Simon . ARK is the new beginning.
We don't talk we text, songs that voices never sing. Technology destroys the world, check out the background.
Love your Honest Reactions could you Please React to Billy Lord "SECTION 318" TY
This is the worst review. One of him is quite enough. Traditional? This video has 826 million views on just TH-cam. Forced.??
He also had a bad case of the flu when he performed this
And he still knocked it out the park! Wow
You probably have heard Disturbed before without even knowing it. You possibly don't know it by title, but the opening vocal phrase is unmistakable. The song is 'Down With the Sickness'...
Listen to that and you'll understand why so many were gobsmacked by this cover. Because it was so out of character for the band.
Great review.
You should have played the song till the end. David is a classically trained Jewish Cantor. He was also very sick during this performance..
prrhaps she should visit the Vatican City and critique Michaelangelo's Pietà after taking a few clay sculpting classes. that should be a great reaction video
Truth be told that when he performed this song he was actually sick. So if he can perform this way when he is sick, how better do you think he can perform when he is not sick?👍
Do you even know who Simon & Garfunkle are. This is probably the greatest cover ever. He also had the flu during this performance.
Perfection!
And to all the 👎👎👎...
Music confuses zombies
Perhaps you should listen to the original by Simon and Garfunkel; it was sung a little higher, lighter and sweeter. You seemed to be dancing around what to describe the song as, what genre. Hinted at ethnic one or two times, but the original was classed as a folk song in the 60's like Bob Dylan's songs, maybe you have heard of him. 'Disturbed' is a heavy metal band, so it is an interesring cross-over.
I wish reactors would do some research . Totally missed the message of the song. This is the best cover100% Paul Simon rang him to congratulate him of his cover
If you're a singer you need to check out the work of Art Garfunkel, voice of an angel, Draiman is the voice of the Devil. Art sang out a warning, David is angry that no one listened to the warning.
Primal is a good word to describe the power of David's voice. With that word I think you pegged it.
You want primal,check out down with the sickness,highly recommended!🤘🤘🤘
If you want Nordic folk a good introduction would be the song Helvegen by Wardruna featuring Aurora.
You should always let the song finish. It’s respect to let son finish, and the sing I’d perfect asis.
Good Day Ma'am! It has been called to my attention that you are responsible for a breach of Section4, Art. 2. "wielding unusual Beauty". so I inquire as to whether your are properly licensed for the impact you seem to be causing to the world in general. : )
The brilliance of David Draiman is the he doesn't go where you want him to go.
Great reaction. You're amazingly beautiful as well.
What a lovely reaction. I presume you have never heard the original 1964(?) version by Simon and Garfunkel?
Also...you have a beautiful voice and good range yourself. What a great chilled song "Silver Lining" is. I wish you the best of luck and may well buy it
@@rickseymour1972 Thank you, I appreciate it! Stay safe
I see why people were annoyed with you if you were closing the video before the song ended. I’ve seen people do worse and end other videos before the singing was even over. So you’re not that bad, LOL. I think you were just really eager to start talking. I have to say other People had me annoyed with you before I even saw the video, because they were saying that you were giggling throughout. But I felt like you understood the power of the song, you just had a smile throughout the video and it didn’t bother me that much. It’s cool.
Below comments are on point, just want to add that your a beautiful young lady and have a very attractive personality and accent.
Half way through this song i thought to myself, wtf am i about to cry.....3/4 of the way I was like yup...im crying lol. Amazing what music can do to you. Being brought to tears by a middle aged balled man....Check! Good reaction video...double check lol
"he's very chill, he's very laid back".... .
Hold his drink
9:27 true story, he was sick during this performance and his band made him sit on the stool during the song.
Seriously you want to ruin the song by pausing it to give your ignorant opinions. How about you play the whole thing through and share your thoughts when it's done
listen to his actual band disturbed...that gravel is normal. david is a trained Oprah singer that sings heavy metal.
You should watch the official music video version. Can't make up my mind which version I prefer.
Disturbed and Myles Kennedy sing a duet of The sound of silence in Houston Texas live
Disturbed is a Hard Metal Rock Band ! OMG !! LOL !!
He had the flu during that performance. Watch the official video. He's got it
nice reaction. by the way , your gorgeous
I am sure it has just been an oversight, no need for concern, an un-named benefactor has taken care of any and all Taxes, levies, surcharges or fines for. apparently, the end of Time!
Great performance!!
Your accent amd smile are lovely😊
Damn it now I wanna hear this sound played with his voice looped on top of itself 100 times
Bet his kids listen to him when he means business. Add a little vocal fry and no means no. 😁
For those of you not familiar with the original, here is a video: th-cam.com/video/NAEppFUWLfc/w-d-xo.html
I don't understand why people who aren't skilled enough in singing or who are not connected to singing at all, need to publicly record their reaction to such a great song that they don't understand anyway, as well as the performance itself ...
He’s just genius , love this guy 🙃
