    I was a young woman when Simon and Garfunkel released this song, and I found it very powerful then. Now I'm 77 and this version is even more moving and more prophetic. Timeless.

      I know exactly what you mean. I am also now 73 and I cried when I heard the power of these words again, but even more meaningful in these sad, lonely, corrupt and "silent" days...... But what a powerful rendition is this? Even better than the original.

      Heart breaking. Peace and love. When an intelligent person is faced with crisis, and considering their options, it is an out, a logical response to the absurdity we live in. 18 is so tender, and so packed with change, which is the clinical definition of stress, and yet so little understanding of life outside of their own block. Vulnerable period I think doesn't get enough specific attention. Mental health system, out patient therapy for certain, in general is a farce, it does more harm then good and should be shut down, because that would improve mental health.
      Christmas prayers to your family and you, Robert. I have a tealight holder which is an Inuit carving in soapstone. It is a sharing circle of 5 people joining hands around the fire. I lit one for your brother, or any souls that may be wandering close by, to have a safe rest. The Inuit have a tradition of stacking flat stones, into the rough shape of a person standing up and pointing, along a route as a marker of the path home, a spirit guide. Which they believe are inhabited by spirits. They are called Inukshuk. (EE-nook-shook). I put one beside the sharing circle, in the light. Best Wishes, friend.
      Happy Christmas,
      Peace to All of Us

      if you haven't heard the original, you should check it out. If for no other reason than to see what it started as. Being that this is the version you heard first, I would guess that the original would seem rather quiet and passive to you now. But hearing the original gives you that much more appreciation for the power and emotion that David Draiman expresses in this version. I liked the original version fine, but the first time I heard this version I was awed by how powerful it is.
      TL;DR if you have to choose one, this is definitely the one to choose, but you should listen to the original if you have the opportunity

    I'm 67 y.o. woman of the whole counter culture of Civil Rights, Viet Nam War, & Civil Disobedience era. As such, Simon & Garfunkel spoke 2 me sooo often & especially with The Sounds of Silence. Then I caught Disturbed's version of the song.... WOW! Simply blew my hair back!!! Sorry, Art & Paul, but U've been usurped...this is the most powerful, goosebumpN, tearjerkN renderN of one of the best & most Bloved protest era songs that Art & Paul(or anyone else of the '60's) ever penned. Disturbed hit a BIG bull's-eye with this dauntN, chillN & strong modern version of the song & I suspect that Art & Paul MUST B touched, moved, & proud of the justice U've done 4 their classic composition! Keep writeN, Paul & Art, but more over, keep singN Disturb, keep on singN loud! I truely love U both!! Such a beautiful blessN & gift 2 both era's...'1960's & '2020's...our troubles have not really changed much & we ALL need 2 break the prison of social apathy & mass Silence. K8TBeth 💃
