I was born in 1955. I am 61 and graduated in 1974. our senior year this was our class song. we all learned this song in preparation for the graduation ceremony. sounds different with 100 teenagers singing it. it takes on a totally different sound. it has always been a favorite of mine. I have liked it in many ways. but love the Disturbed version the best.
The only one I have heard even coming close, and have the dare to try, with legitimacy to do so. Much kudos for do so! Of course 2-3 levels below David Draiman, but still!
+Gutesaurio you did say amazing cover, soooooo i went with that. your right you'll be waiting along time , i work to much. ill watch my criticisms, this guy really did a good job.
I'll never understand "killed it" as a compliment... But otherwise I agree. It has been untouchable, and he definitely did it justice. His is just as good as Disturbed!
I see a lot of comments about not being able to scream, and don't do it because of this and that. I'll say, you can pull off the raspy scream, and vibrato, very well. You made an awesome cover, and it sounded bad ass brotha! Don't let anyone on here bring you down on it.
Love this cover of a cover. Listen to it at work a lot. As for those who have a problem with 'screaming,' I don't think they understand what they're moaning about, as there is no screaming, only growling, and it's good growling. Keep it up, Jake.
What an awesome job you did, however it was done, you did it. I have listened to at least a dozen covers of Disturbed's version. YOUR'S IS THE BEST. HANDS DOWN...
It's manipulated. Try converting this into an MP3 and open the file in an audio mixer or editor. The vibrato pulse waves were cleanly extended and if you zoom the frequency waves are too neat which is not humanly possible LOL.
@@jacksonaguilar1998 who cares, everyone can especulate, whether they're fake or not is something we can guess and prune on everything we consume. Art is art, by that definition Synth based music is fake, also the Fifth Element's Opera Song was created to not be humanly possible, now there's a lot of singers who can pull it off. Art is limitless, enjoy things.
Thank you for your comment uU Uu. Let me explain, this purpose of this video is not a live performance as you can see I did not title it that way. It is a full multimedia production created by one person, myself. The song was performed by me live, and embellished with string arrangements, with my own recording facilities, and then the video was shot by me on multiple cameras on tripods and then edited and colorgraded by me, the 3d animated intro was also created by me, now I'll bet money you wont find many other singers on youtube who perform live in front of an iphone, can also produce the entire media that I do.
+Matthew Osterloh 1). I'm not a twit, as you can clearly tell in Jake's civil response to me. 2.) You've contributed nothing to the conversation, so clearly you are the twit for inserting yourself where you weren't needed. 3.) FYI, I was simply pointing out to the OP that this was a production, as Jake also indicated when he said he didn't intend this as a live version.
+Jake Pancho thank you for the explanation, Jake. As a one man show you've done a terrific job. And that was my whole point to the OP; that this was a production, done just like a music video. I was not trying to take anything away from your obvious talent. Did you run one vocal track pretty dry, and another track (or multiple) with reverb?
You know, I get tired of people taking old songs and covering them, but this is one... This is one of the ones that stands out , it is its own entity because it has originality in it as far as vocals and instruments. When you cover a song you sound exactly like the original, like as in your cover of disturbed's version. When you reinvent a song you make it new again and different, such as disturbed did. Not taking anything away from you, you did an excellent cover it was on point the whole song, props to you.
Your voice is so deep and so inspiring my friend this is such a powerful song that disturbed covered up and you have the most powerful voice god bless you that what inspiring me to do music is that so powerful my friend God bless you
this is beyond amazing and memorable. I don't of one word to describe how much I love this. Thank you for your time making the video and performing the song.
I'm really glad to hear that Billy. I do all this for fun also. Good luck to you and my advice is DO THE SCREAM and don't let anyone tell you you cant. If you fail, do it again! You'll see a lot of comments below telling me I can't do the scream lol, but my video is right here, where is theirs? Power to you bro!
Just listened to his version. Yes, his notes are crystal clear. However, he did voice layering with a harmony part that is present in the original Simon&Garfunkel version. However, he marketed it as a Disturbed cover. That being said, Disturbed had no vocal harmony at all in their version. So, in incorporating a vocal harmony., it becomes not so much a Disturbed cover but, rather, a Simon&Garfunkel cover. I think both Thomas's cover and Jakes cover are good rendition. However, if we are looking for a Disturbed cover, Jake's version is better in that respect.
you nail it . my opinion is like that ....voice natural and original , your lock is commercial is perfect combination . you deserve a good person to promote your voice . here you deserve 20 millions of views .
Excellent production, awesome vocals, and sweet guitar. Absolutely flawless. I'd love to hear more music from a guy with your kind of talent. Don't forget to showcase your originals, bro. They are what will always set you apart from the rest.
OMFG! CHILLS! This was brilliantly covered, sir! Beautiful, really matched his pitch, and even the almost growls were perfect. And that end! CHILLS! So haunting, powerful and just as good as Disturbed! ♡

That is one of the best covers I have heard yet, good job
So true. His and Caleb Hayes
+Frankie McNeil. Hyles I meant
The only one I have heard even coming close, and have the dare to try, with legitimacy to do so. Much kudos for do so! Of course 2-3 levels below David Draiman, but still!
this is ... AMAZING !!! amazing voice amazing cover!! ... congrats!
+Torn Horizon did I say original? ... no ... I said amazing ... can you do a cover of a cover better and more original than him? xD ... Ill wait
+Gutesaurio you did say amazing cover, soooooo i went with that. your right you'll be waiting along time , i work to much. ill watch my criticisms, this guy really did a good job.
you were on the other cover of a cover of this song
damn dude. since disturbed remade this song. the song has been untouchable, and you killed it.
Thanks man!
agreed
Jake Pancho awesome vocals & beautiful music brother
I'll never understand "killed it" as a compliment...
But otherwise I agree. It has been untouchable, and he definitely did it justice. His is just as good as Disturbed!
this is one of my favorite covers of this song... not because it's a cover of disturbs version, but because but you have the sounds balanced perfectly
Gave me the goose bumps.. Great vocals .. Thanks
The best version of this song till now. Very intersting voice with steady changes and ballance.
dude you rocked amazing great job hope you have an album would love to hear you sing more
I see a lot of comments about not being able to scream, and don't do it because of this and that. I'll say, you can pull off the raspy scream, and vibrato, very well. You made an awesome cover, and it sounded bad ass brotha! Don't let anyone on here bring you down on it.
The best cover of a cover of the original sound of silence, Powerful vocal
Absolutely amazing performance!
Love this cover of a cover. Listen to it at work a lot. As for those who have a problem with 'screaming,' I don't think they understand what they're moaning about, as there is no screaming, only growling, and it's good growling. Keep it up, Jake.
What an awesome job you did, however it was done, you did it. I have listened to at least a dozen covers of Disturbed's version. YOUR'S IS THE BEST. HANDS DOWN...
This is one of the best versions of the song I came across so far *^* love it
Wow, this was an amazing rendition. Got that gutteral emotion that is present in Disturbed's version. Fantastic
God damn that vibratto.
awesome cover man.

always some twit that has to nitpick, why can't u just let the video be?
