This song was written after a presidential assassination.. It took a heavy metal band to see what's happening in our world today to rightly bring this song back. BRAVO
As soon as that man opens his mouth…..chills chills chills!!!! I’ve listened to his version of Amazing Grace over and over…. Chills chills chills!!!!! Glory be to God Almighty!!!❤
I agree! I've listened to Disturbed's version of the sound of silence when he first came out with his way of singing and I was blown away. But, now coming across Dan's cover of this song, I love his interpretation more. To me, his voice is much sexier.
Dan has such control of his voice and his breathing and such a strong voice. Everything he sings he puts his own spin on it and I could listen and do listen to him over and over.
Dan is the best!!! But I am confused as to why I don't hear his accent when he sings, when others say they can hear it. I live in Missouri USA. I should be able to detect an accent, even when someone sings but I can't. I have only heard it in some of his really early music and once in American Trilogy when he sings "leeve" instead of live. That would be a good one to listen to! Thanks for all your reactions to Dan!!!
I love this version and Geoff Castellucci's versions because they are very different but equally stunning. Dan has the same anger that Disturbed does, Geoff's version is more sombre melancholy
Love the song and Dans awesome voice in everything he sings!! Amazing Grace will blow your mind if you haven’t already heard it! Thanks for your channel. God Bless!!!
Love Dan Vasc. One of the first vocalists I discovered many years ago when I started watching TH-cam. For years I only watched music videos. Legendary artists, new artists and the unknown artists. What I discovered was there were gifted people across the globe that had more talent in one finger than many that are making millions of dollars in the industry. Dan is one of them. One of my favorites of his is "Bring Me To Life" Cover [MALE VERSION] - EVANESCENCE. It's a great cover of the Evanescence song by female "metal" vocalist Amy Lee. Check her out too. Her live concert Evanescence - Bring Me To Life by Evanescence is better than the original video.
I juste love Van Dasc ❤. But I'm surprised that it's rare that very few people réaction to his unbelievable breath control too ! 😳 Thanks for a wonderfull choice of song, as Always.
David's voice starts to have his rasp at certain high notes that I feel Dan's voice sounds more crisp. idk.... just what I felt. I've listened to Disturbed for so long. I love both of the covers. It would be cool to see Dan do a couple shows with Disturbed. Would be crazy! Dan even thows in a shout out to David at 4:37.... Dan matches Davids distorted note. Simply awesome.
@@CCisRight That is not what I’m saying. Everyone has the right to have an opinion. He stated it was the disturbed version. Maybe if you listen to other work Dan Vasc does you’ll hear how amazing his range is. Try Amazing Grace, O Holy Night. There’s lots to choose from.
@CC-rc8cl What I'm saying is that just because you believe it's 100% better doesn't mean you're right. His rendition was only an empty shell singing words. I also never said he didn't have some talent, I said he was a copycat and true geniuses and truly talented artists make a song their own, not actually trying to copy someone note for note unless it's for an acting gig or other specific reason.
It seems to be much more refined, then the version done by Disturbed. This is almost operatic, granted I am not a music critic by any stretch of the imagination.
An extremely good rendition.Great voice,really.But to be honest,Disturbed made me understand the lyrics and it's exactly what's happening these days,nobody is listening or talking anymore.phones,computers,technology are killing personal communications.I was too Young to understand Simon and Garfunkel,english not being my language but David Draiman sure did.This cover is amazing,almost equals Disturbed,almost👏🤩
David portrayed the devil himself being totally disgusted with us for not heeding his warnings. Dan, though, paid incredible homage to David, like the reviewer mentioned.
This is a great cover of Disturbed’s version, and I absolutely love Dan Vasc, but the Disturbed version is much darker. David Draiman really brought the emotion. Dan’s cover is great but David Draiman’s is amazing.
i routinely get chills from this guy New sub. You did a great reaction and didnt constantly interrupt . I really hate it when folks do that a lot its annoying cause it messes with the flow . You know what i mean?
Another version of this you NEED to check out is Pentatonix. It's AMAZEBALLS!!!! They're an accapella group that uses NO instruments, just their voices & their beat boxer. They're a rabbit hole you should go down. Also, you want to hear an AMAZEBALLS vocalist that goes high but not screaming or falsetto, check out Steelheart. "I'll Never Let You Go, Can't Stop Me Lovin You, Sheila, She's Gone & Mama Don't You Cry" are songs of theirs you NEED to check out!!!!!
Nice reaction! First Dan song I ever heard, back on 9/15/20. My one nitpick? Should've listened to the full outro. Dan also covered this in 2016. I love listening to the older one and the newer one, seeing how much he's improved, even though he's always been good. Keep exploring his channel! He's amazing!
Absolutely love the Disturbed version of this man and this man murder it 100%. Chills all the way through and flashbacks to when I first heard the song great cove
Just a quick comment...I had to go open up the actual video to check, because I didn't think I had seen any delays in the audio-visual sync when I watched it (about 50 times) before. Just so people who have NOT watched the actual video yet, don't expect the visual and audio to be out of sync in it, as they are here. I don't know if you've done that on purpose or not, but to me, it's really detracting. Other than that, I totally agree with your whole evaluation. 😀
I never thought anyone besides Simon and Garfunkle would be able to sing this when it was released. These newer versions make a huge argument. With evolving technology and increased research, over the years ,
Sorry, I did not finish my previous text. Continuing..........in vocal techniques, a whole new sound has emerged and it is beautiful and impactful. While I will always love the original artists, as this is their creation as songwriters, it is a whole new world of creativity and I embrace all excellence now and going forward. Thank you Dan for sharing your voice in SO many various genres of music. 🎼🎸🎵🎹🥁🎙📀🎻🎧🎷🎶💜
I know it is probably hard to choose what to listen next, without actually watching it, and not spoil our impression with you. I can recommend "fairy tale" latest one, as the song he goes absolutely insane, and almost rips himself in half for the delivery he strikes us with.
Dan is simply amazing. I also left a message on Patreon that might interest you for this song. And Dan's cover of Evanescence "Bring Me To Life" is stunning.
He has a brilliant voice. I just think for me personally i love the Disturbed version slightly more, i have listened to Disturbed’s version about 50 times.
Fun fact: Garfunkel had a best friend that would call him darkness because of being blind. So the first two lines of the song, “Hello darkness my old friend; I’ve come to talk to you again” is just referring to a relationship with his old friend from college.
I've not heard this cover: but i have heard Disturbed version. Tho similar, this guy sang stronger and tougher for a longer part of the song where it felt appropriate.
I don't think that Dan could have interpreted this song differently from Disturbed's. David Draiman and Dan are both heavy metal singers, so unless Dan completely had rearranged the way the song should be performed with his metal rendition, they would always sound the same.
This is the second time I’ve listened to Dan’s version. The first time through, it sounded like a mostly Dave Draiman cover. However, this time, I could hear parts that Dan made his own. Also, he doesn’t look scary like David did in the video version. 😊
Tommy Johansson has a good cover of this song too, and many others. He has also a one octave challenge of You raise me up. Maybe you can do a review of some of his covers…
Awesome job, I must admit. He covered Disturbed perfectly, which is good, however, why try to sound exactly like someone else? I don't know. Anyway, I love Disturbs version & of course the original by Simon & Garfunkel. However, my favorite version is still by Pentatonix. It's like 3 different songs, all amazing.
This is NOT the Disturbed version. Its redo of the cover Dan did YEARS ago. Disturbed was doing Dan's version.
Important distinction! I’m a rabid Dan Vasc fan, btw!
Was the sync off for others as well?
This song was written after a presidential assassination.. It took a heavy metal band to see what's happening in our world today to rightly bring this song back. BRAVO
You can be proud as a Brazilian... This man is just phenominal!!❤❤
WOW! That was the best cover of the disturbed version I have ever seen. Just WOW! PHENOMENAL!
As soon as that man opens his mouth…..chills chills chills!!!! I’ve listened to his version of Amazing Grace over and over…. Chills chills chills!!!!! Glory be to God Almighty!!!❤
He's Amazing and so talented 😍
@@kellypaulson455 Dan is awesome as well!!! Lol
He has a vid entitled "An Apology". It's a must see.😂
One of the many things that marks Dan V from other great singers is that he believes song tell a story, and you really feel it when he sings.
This songs hits my heartstrings
DAN is amazing... i can understand every word he sings BRILLIANT
I love his voice he makes all the his own amazing ❤
Dan’s better than any singer around, including Josh Groban! Dan should be a super star! He is with me! ❤️❤❤
I’m totally mesmerized by his voice!
PERFECTION!!!
I am new here and really love the way you’re blown away by Dan’s music as I am!
I feel what you’re feeling! Good job!
I actually like Dan's cover even more than the Disturbed cover. I could listen to it every day!
Same 🔥
I agree! I've listened to Disturbed's version of the sound of silence when he first came out with his way of singing and I was blown away. But, now coming across Dan's cover of this song, I love his interpretation more. To me, his voice is much sexier.
I love the Disturbed version but it will be Dan’s version played at my funural.
@SPY10070 Same thoughts! Dan has a sexy voice, when he sings and when he just talks, he rounds his vowels❤
just masterpiece...
Check out Dan's version of POKER FACE cover of Lady Gaga. Crazy good. I won't say anymore about it. You have to hear this!!!!!
Dan has such control of his voice and his breathing and such a strong voice. Everything he sings he puts his own spin on it and I could listen and do listen to him over and over.
What a beautiful voice, beautiful man and beautiful soul….sending love from America 🇺🇸 ❤😊
Check out is cover be a man from Mulan, it's amazing. Dan is awesome.
Yes! That last scream he gives at an incredibly high octave is crazy good!
Wonderful cover and dynamic . Thank you for this reaction .
J'adore ce chanteur
I have an old lady crush on Dan who can sing anything
Dan is the best!!! But I am confused as to why I don't hear his accent when he sings, when others say they can hear it. I live in Missouri USA.

MO here too! ❤
Masterpiece 🔥
I agree. Great review btw.
Beautiful ❤
Holy crap that was awesome.
Hi. Do yourself a favor and check his version of PHANTOM OF THE OPERA. I absolutely love his voice.❤
Dan Vasc is so amazingg! Amazing range! Love you Dan Vasc!!!
Effortless perfection. That he spent years of training to present to us. Thanks for your reaction.
Amazing. My new favorite ❤
I love this version and Geoff Castellucci's versions because they are very different but equally stunning. Dan has the same anger that Disturbed does, Geoff's version is more sombre melancholy
If you haven't heard his version of Amazing Grace please check it out!!
❤
Love this. Chills. Just remember as amazing the disturbed version is….Dan touches us with no bells and whistles. It’s all his soul bringing it to us
Amazingly wonderful!!!😊
Hi, Sebs. I like that guy's voice. I enjoyed the accent.
Love the song and Dans awesome voice in everything he sings!! Amazing Grace will blow your mind if you haven’t already heard it! Thanks for your channel. God Bless!!!

My favorite phrase in this version- And the people bowed and prayed to the neon gods they made
Truly Beautiful ! 🌹🌺🌸
Awesome cover, simply beautiful. It's my favourite version to listen to.

So much better than the disturbed version. His vocals are 100%% better. Dan Vasc is truly an amazing singer
NOPE it's just a copycat of a genius' rendition. This guy couldn't even make thesong his own! Meh
@@CCisRight everyone has a right to their opinion. I respect yours, please respect mine.
@@Cath1027 so now disagreeing with someone is now disrespect? Naw... you're still wrong

I m becoming a fan of this great voice
I like Dan's version. I have to choose Wolf Winters version on The Voice, 2020. I keep playing it over and over.♥️♥️♥️🐺🐺🐺🤟
It seems to be much more refined, then the version done by Disturbed. This is almost operatic, granted I am not a music critic by any stretch of the imagination.

I agree. It seemed like a copy of David Draiman's cover without the meaningful video.
David portrayed the devil himself being totally disgusted with us for not heeding his warnings. Dan, though, paid incredible homage to David, like the reviewer mentioned.
Puddles the Clown did a great version.
This is a great cover of Disturbed’s version, and I absolutely love Dan Vasc, but the Disturbed version is much darker. David Draiman really brought the emotion. Dan’s cover is great but David Draiman’s is amazing.
Awww puppy, this is beautiful
I really liked it when his accent came out, he should do it more with his natural accent. But overall it’s effing 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👵🏼💜☮️
i routinely get chills from this guy New sub. You did a great reaction and didnt constantly interrupt . I really hate it when folks do that a lot its annoying cause it messes with the flow . You know what i mean?

absolutely a brilliant homage to Disturbed's version. Demonstrates Dan's incredible voice to superb effect.
I like Mr. Dan's version better. His voice has more color to it, it makes sound so much more beautiful and colorful
Absolutely love the Disturbed version of this man and this man murder it 100%. Chills all the way through and flashbacks to when I first heard the song great cove

I've not heard this cover: but i have heard Disturbed version. Tho similar, this guy sang stronger and tougher for a longer part of the song where it felt appropriate.
And without feeling
Very good, however I think Dan missed an opportunity to wail near the end to make it his own.
I don't think that Dan could have interpreted this song differently from Disturbed's. David Draiman and Dan are both heavy metal singers, so unless Dan completely had rearranged the way the song should be performed with his metal rendition, they would always sound the same.
Not just woman love him. Men are addicted to him too. How could you not be????😂 Perfection......
I wonder if Artie Garfunkel is as impressed with such a massively powerful interpretation of this as we are?
Dan kicked Disturbed out of the water with his singing
This is the second time I’ve listened to Dan’s version. The first time through, it sounded like a mostly Dave Draiman cover. However, this time, I could hear parts that Dan made his own. Also, he doesn’t look scary like David did in the video version. 😊
LOVE IT! Nana Karen UK x
Has an opera sound with a sound of Freddy Mercury
Awesome dan u make my day chrissy
Check out Dan Bass version of this song. Awesome bass voice
Just have to resort to emojis.. 🥰😍❤️🥰😍❤️. Thank you!!!!! Subbed.
Not bad.
A bit more of a unique cover with a great guitar solo - check out
The Sound of Silence - Disturbed - Cole Rolland (feat. Steve Glasford)
Love you Sebs!
Dan's the best, he should do a world tour.
I Love this version! Have you listen to Todd Hoffman's version of sound of silence? Please do that ❤
Check out Pentatonix cover of The Sound of Silence
Tommy Johansson has a good cover of this song too, and many others. He has also a one octave challenge of You raise me up. Maybe you can do a review of some of his covers…
Im pretty sure dan did this version before disturbed. Look it up.
Check out Geoff Castellucci's cover of "Sound of Silence". It is amazing!!!
Hey Sebs...you need to check out his cover of The Star Spangled Banner and his apology...but do it for The 4th of July.
Here’s A new tip, cold at the altar, Chris Kläfford 👌🏻😊
If anyone hasn't heard it, go check out Puddles Pity Party version of The Sounds of Silence.
I still like Darin’s the best, however, Dan’s is the second best.
Seb duran you have to watch Dan Vasc sing burn butcher burn from the witcher
I hated to press the "like" button when I saw Gods perfect number there777 - so appropriate! I always imagine this as a message from God
Why is the sync off here when it’s perfect on Dan’s original? Not complaining at all, Dan is always powerful!!
Am I the only one watching how your dog reacted to the video...
Haha,the dog loves Dan!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Awesome job, I must admit. He covered Disturbed perfectly, which is good, however, why try to sound exactly like someone else? I don't know. Anyway, I love Disturbs version & of course the original by Simon & Garfunkel. However, my favorite version is still by Pentatonix. It's like 3 different songs, all amazing.
I can't find the Disturbed cover in your videos.
I mean fairplay but why do it the same way as distrbed
This is definitely a great version of this song. With that said, I prefer the Disturbed version much more!
Pass...its a cover of DISTURBED'S cover of Simon and Garfunkel
Love y0ur s0ng Christy
Average, Avi Kaplan would tear this song up
