When Simon and Garfunkel did this song, it was a favorite of mine because it was so soft and meaningful. My cousin sent the link to me for this song about 6 months ago and like you, I wasn't sure what I was going to hear and luckily I didn't know that David was a hard rock voice which I don't listen to much too but my gosh, when I heard his version of this song I was blown away. To me, comparison between the S&G's original and Disturbed's version is this: S&G told us the story and gave us the warning. The words were just as powerful back then. In my opinion over the years, people just disregarded what they told us. Now the voice of Disturbed comes on the scene and he's sharing the same message but in a much stronger voice and a frustrated voice saying to us, "Aren't you listening??" Original is my favorite just because I grew up with it. Disturb's is a favorite because it is so powerful. Thanks for your reaction, Jayy!!!! Thoroughly enjoyed it. Take care, sweetie. Peace.
The words:
Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dare
Disturb the sound of silence
"Fools" said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed
In the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls"
And whisper'd in the sounds of silence
cnatview an old hippie like me told me about this version; and it’s so abstractly different that I like it as much as the soft and meaningful version of S&G
Yes it is awesome
Well said Cnatview. I too grew up on the original S&G version, a song that tried to warn us of societies so degradation into apathy and now Davids version that grabs you by the neck and shakes you, hoping you'll see the truth of it.
I cry every time my friend. Every time.
I completely agree with the warning and the anger at not heeding it. But the video seems about the loss of music and telling the truth. The instruments return in the ark at the end to indicate that we can get it back both truth and music....creativity. There is light at the end and hope.
Did anyone else cry when they first heard this and not understand why. Lol i was feeling something significant but couldnt put a name on it. But i was exhausted after watching it
I tear up every time.
@@courtney5796 THIS.... I have listened to this man sing this song 500 times and I am shook every single time.
Watch this version, then see how you feel. ruclips.net/video/JJViT8BKq9k/видео.html
I get teary every time I hear it~❤️
@@martinkrutz5698 I am so sick of this phauxdemic it is infuriating the lies people will tell for political gain. Once this election is over watch how quickly this goes away. We are being manipulated.
I avoided this song thinking it would be a disservice to Simon and Garfunkel; l was wrong.
Nope. The remake is perfect for today. From a soft but optimistic warning to an outraged WTF? We are tired of it.
Yes! But instead, it was the next chapter!
Paul Simon liked it himself, put the link up on his social media...
The song is my number one favorite. I love both versions. No disservice here; he clearly 'gets it.'
Both versions are so powerful in different ways. Both so different. His voice and delivery is incredibly intense and beautiful. Brings the lyrics into a new light.
I cried and not just a little cry over this......it hit me like a speeding truck.....wow.
Me too. I suppose it reflects your state of mind when you first hear it. So powerful.
I'm not much of a music guy. Love so many genres just for whatever mood I'm in. Disturbs version though has grabbed me so hard. I literally listen to it every single morning for the past year. It's so powerful and pure. As a metal guy, I never would have thought I would hear such beauty coming from David. Pairing it with one of the most beautiful poetic songs ever written and you something that will live for eternity.
.... meetoo...., and im a guy.... 😞
I think for me anyway, is the Guilt within, how we know we should of heeded the warning, and we didn't. Most bought in to the corruption of $$$$'s over Integrity. Companies over People, letting the incredible truths of the meaning of the words of clarity, of how we should treat each other, over taken by "Stuff" as Carlin put it. We almost had it, then came Raegan and most went to sleep, no longer demanding what now we have to fight for again, common decency, etc.
It hit me like a speeding truck, im still stuck on the grille.....
Best cover ever recorded! The original is GREAT, but this....on another level!
And there must be hundreds of covers!
Couldn’t agree more! I get chills every time!
Simon was so impressed he endorsed it on one of his social accounts
@Nah mate Google much?
He loved it
One of the original guys endorsed it on bbc radio 2 too
Facebook
The most powerful voice ever! How he brought out the message of that song is unbelievable. He sang it the way it should that finally now, I freakin got the message!
The sounds of silence was shattered by his powerful voice.
I go with the original artist more than 90 percent of the time; especially when the song was written by the original singer. He just took all the emotion Paul Simon put into words and doubled it. I am always astounded by your real, heartfelt reactions.
The first time I heard this I cried. I love the original but this version is amazing. Love your reaction.
Not to mention his incredibly sexy stare! 😘
Every time...
This is one of the best cover songs I ever heard. The OG was Simon and Garfunkel and they also love this version. Glad to see your reaction to this one.😊😊😊😊
David Draiman is a classically trained singer. I believe he used to be a Cantor. He said that he worked for three hours in the vocal booth on the vocals and cried when he finally perfected it. Paul Simon was so impressed, he wrote to Draiman and congratulated him, and endorsed it on his social media, which he rarely, if ever, does.
I’m 57 and so frightened of what’s happening in our world. My anxiety is almost unmanageable. I don’t sleep and live in fear. This song is the best of all time to be. So many emotions. I cry every time I hear it. May one day we learn from our past. Stay safe and blessings to you all. I love how you do all kinds of music.❤️
I'm 56. The warning has gone unheeded too long. It's time to get angry.
Our past shapes the future. Our job as elders is to teach the next generation. We are the reason our world is truely in such unrest and disrepair.
It is never to live in fear, but to take control of our own destiny of right here and right now.
Tomorrow was never promised to us.
David Draiman is actually classically trained. Check out their cover of Land of Confusion.
I grew up listening to Simon and Garfunkle...the original artists...and the first time I heard this version it left me stunned and shaken. The lyrics that Paul Simon wrote are powerful on their own, but when you add the sheer power and emotion that David Draiman has, it gives me chills.
I so agree with you Serena !!
He’s not classically trained.
Yes he is, from a family of cantor classical singers
This version punches you right in the gut doesn’t it? It completely blew me away when I first heard it, what a truly remarkable voice he has, stunning!
If God himself sang this song it would probably sound just like this😇
If God did anything for us he placed David in this world 50 years ago to listen his whole life and reimagine this song because we still aren't listening.
Yes
I know it's become cliche and I don't know who to first credit but it's so true.
God at his creation ask David Draiman if
He wanted the voice of an Angel or a Demon..
He just said Yes.
@@M-S_4321 well said.
A lot of musicians with classical training choose to play metal. There's a reason for that - quite a lot of technical metal music plays with classical approaches in a freely inventive way.
Mr Draiman is an accomplished vocalist who chooses to sing metal - the whole second half of "The Sound of Silence" is sung in that metal style. It's emotionally delicate yet powerful.
Some people seem very dismissive of metal, probably out of ignorance. It's a shame as there are many, many genres of metal and there's something to please almost everybody.
Here's a couple of starter suggestions, something lots of people will find acceptable, nothing too wild: "Awakening" by Unleash the Archers (so-called "Power Metal"), "Ghost Love Score" by Nightwish (official live), (genre: Symphonic Metal). Greetings from the UK!
Thanks. I'll listen to these.
Back. WOW!!! Thanks again.
@@60-second-HACKS I appreciate it - can I assume that you're looking into metal "from outside" so to speak? It's a big, friendly but confusing set of specialised areas. I hope you enjoy your journey.
Yep, I studied classical and folk singing before I joined a melodic metal band and used a variety of singing styles. Our guitarists were very technical and our bass player had a PHD in music.
In my opinion the two closest music genres are classical and metal
Your reaction in every transition of his voice is priceless exactly how I reacted when I first heard this version beautiful & powerful I was stunned for some time after took me awhile to register what I'd just watched. I hope more people are blown away by your new merch store and all that hard work pays off you do deserve it ♥️
Everyone that hears this for the first time either cries or nearly cries.
Loved your reaction ❤ You should check out the live version of this on the Conan show. David was sick 😷 but you wouldn't know it. It was such a powerful performance that when Paul Simon seen it, he endorsed this version on his website (Paul has not ever endorsed any other cover of this song).
Simon and Garfunkel was the warning, Disturbed's version was warning not heeded
Warning about what? Do you know? I grew up in the 60’s & 70’s. It’s not a warning like everyone says. They think it had to do with electronics, it didn’t. Think back to my generation. The Vietnam War was going on then. There was so much controversy about the war. Don’t know, about the war, look it up. A lot of soldiers were hated to be in the war. They didn’t have a choice, most were drafted. Think about it. Sound of silence, being quite especially at night so enemies don’t locate exactly where you are. Cobble stones, walkways in small towns. Neon light split the night, bombs bursting in the air. 10,000 people, coming face to face, front lines facing the enemies. Words on subway walls, the hippie generation was here, they wrote “Make love, not war”. Don’t believe me, there’s another video out there, same song, that show pictures of the soldiers at war. Besides, Simon stated it many, many years ago on a talk show. Please look up the history of this war, It was horrific. People spit on our soldiers when returning instead of thanking them for defending our country. It would be a great history lesson for you & millions of others.
@@dhtisme7034 It's about people's failure to communicate and understand each other and how it would lead to distrust and violence.
@@dhtisme7034 Your about that right too
The expression on your face when the song surprised you with it's sudden turn ("And in the naked light I saw..."), I knew the song hit you, grabbed you somewhere inside and didn't let go. I love honest reactions like yours. It hit me the same way except I ended up in tears. Best version of this song I have ever heard.
The best quote I heard was David was asked if he wanted a angels voice or a demons voice. He replied yes
I first heard this many years ago. It is by Simon and Garfunkel and was a very, very gentle ballad. David Draiman and his band disturbed turned it into a powerful thing of beauty with their rendition. No matter how many times I hear it, I am always amazed by David's voice and vocal range! Good luck with your reactions. M
I've been a Disturbed fan since the late 90's when I first heard "Down With The Sickness", which is a song about child abuse. There is a song of their second album called "Darkness" which David shows his softer side of his voice. Your reaction to SOS is pretty much the same I had....just blown away. I heard the original by Simon and Garfunkel and that version is more upbeat. I think Disturbed's version is more relevant now than back in the 60's. Thanks for sharing your reaction. Another song you should react to, by Disturbed, is "The Light"....
More relevant than Simon and Garfunkel, this version of Disturb? .. Why? It will graze snails plus your theory .... it is more sonorous because it is a thick voice and the intrumentalization has a difference of almost 50 years ... The worst thing was that they were quiet and did not plagiarize !!!
@@vitorsoares9289 In my opinion, yes it is more relevant. Just look around at the fucked up world we are living in. Yes this is more sonorous, which makes the song that much more darker. Instrumental aspect aside (drums, guitars and strings haven't changed, just the way they are used), as I said, in my opinion. Your comment about the worst thing is they were quiet and didn't plagiarize doesn't make sense to me.....
It's amazing how a song can be written and released in one era ( this was originally done by Simon and Garfunkle in the 60's ) and it's message can be so important and relevant to what's going on in the world at that time.
Then turn around and be released almost 50 years later and still be just as important and relevant to what is going on in the world today.
The original of this song was released in 1968, I have loved it since childhood. But it sounded sad and a little childish. BUT THIS is like a sledgehammer right in the heart, and tears from the eyes!
1964
Damnit David! His cover of this song will never NOT bring me to tears.
He was classically trained, but belongs to a heavy metal band.
First time I heard this, it shook me to my core. The words really made you think.
IMO, this is the best cover out there. I had the same reaction as you did the first time I saw this video. Then I watched it over and over (I still do).
Your face is so priceless watching this, love your reaction :)
I remember when I first heard this and always wish I could go back and watch it for the first time again. Alas I can not. But yours and some of the better reaction videos take me some way back to seeing it for the first time. Thanks.
You have gone down so many rabbit holes. You have decades of music to experience. Thank you for your reactions. Keep listening girl.
This cover left me stunned by its beauty and power the first time I heard it, too.
The message is so profound!! It is what's going on in the world today. This song is a CLASSIC!!!! His voice is EPIC!!!
Wow thanks for sharing that song and video I cried my emotions out. Thanks for sharing this man's video. I subscribed to your channel today ❤
IMHO this is even better than the original Simon and Garfunkel version.
You know it's a great cover when it brings a whole different meaning to lyrics.
...I will be 62 in Aug. I have been listening to this song since my early teens...until Disturbed cover...I had Never really Heard the Words...It was never as PROPHETIC as it is Now...I could loop this All Day
Your honesty, your realness, is SO refreshing.
Wonderful, wonderful reaction, sister. That voice is a one-off!!
You are so intuitive and understand the music naturally, what a beautiful soul you have♥️
he was actually trained to sing opera. His coive is so so amaing ! gives me shivers every time
At any given point, there is always one song I am obsessed with. Sometimes it’s for a week or two... sometimes longer. When I first heard this cover 3 years ago, it became my obsession for 2 months. I couldn’t get enough of it. 3 years later, it is still on my favorite playlist, and it still gives me chills. (My current obsession is called Dancing With the Wind by Days of the New, and it would make for an EXCELLENT reaction video because of all the surprises & layers it has).
As a young man he was classically trained as an opera singer and now fronts a metal band
Also the same group does a song called "down with the sickness" listen to that and compare it to this. It's off the chain
He was able to bring the darkness to this song that it needed. He owns it now.
And these guys are a heavy metal band
This song was written by Paul Simon back in 1964 after the assination of Pres John F Kennedy the year before. It was performed as a soft & respectful song by Simon & his lifelong friend Art Garfunkel. I heard Disturb's version quite by accident & I was disturbed to say the least. Then I realized that this song is as relevant today as it was on the day it was released!!! So, I went back to listen to it again with a new attitude & I find it even more relevant with Disturb's attitude & in your face performance. Also loved watching you experience it for the first time...makes you think doesn't it!!!
This by far is the best version of this song, no other version even comes close to hitting that emotional nerve, David Draiman has the most beautiful voice of any artist I've heard.
Goosebumps. Everytime. Love the original too.
I loved the look on your face when it hit that spot of the song... you know the part. Powerful
When Simon and Garfunkel sang us this song, it was an urban tale of loneliness. It was about a young man, a gentle man, barely out of his childhood, learning hard truths about a cold world. Same theme as the Boxer, or at least the same backdrop, same loneliness, same search for some greater truth, something to reassure. And always in a city. In THE city.
When David Draiman sings this song, it is a conversation with the underworld, about dark forces and mysticism. It is the growl of a fallen man pushing back against even greater evil, or perhaps coming to terms with it. And despite some of the words (neon lights and street lamps), one gets the feeling it takes place at a crossroads in the middle of nowhere...the kind of place one makes a deal with a demon.
When S&G talk about visions being planted in their brains, one has an image of ethereal thoughts, an emerging awareness. When Draiman mentions a vision being planted in his brain, the evocation is much more literal, physical, painful, actual.
S&G's Silence is loneliness they endure. David's Silence is a cloak he hides within.
S&G's 10,000 are fellow city-dwellers. David's 10,000 are the damned.
Both versions of this song are incredibly powerful. But they are oh so incredibly different.
...
Jayy, your face is so evocative. Your expressions speak in paragraphs.
I love this song. His version always give me chills and watching your raw emotions to it, made my heart ache at the same time. Thanks for this moving experience.
Beautiful rendition....love David's voice
...so rich
I'm new to your channel. I've watched a few of your reactions, and each one has been better, than the one before. You have become one of my favorite reactors, because I love the honesty, and realness you're giving with your videos. There's so many songs that you need to completely watch the entire video, lyrics, and actual musicality of the song. This song is one of them. It speaks volumes, and I think if it doesn't touch something inside your soul, you might not be human, or soulless. Great job!! Keep it up!!
Omg 128,000 SILENCE was disturbed, voices with visions hollering at top their lungs People bowed their heads and prayed, hello darkness My ole friend didn't want to see AGAIN!! But we don't have leadership I can't stop this...peace love respect stay safe stay healthy, stay alive.
I love seeing your openness and surprise. You do not have as many preconceived notions or biases. Keep it up!
Davids Voice Slays
Yep this song and this performance...it does that to you.
🤯🤘🏼✌🏼🤟🏼
God bless you hun. I like alot of tracks from this band. Keep on Keeping on.
The lead singer for Disturbed is a Trained Opera Singer. I believe that is how he got his start. Before joining The Band "Disturbed."
I have this song on my phone and his voice really gets me every time. Their version of the land of confusion is really good as well.
David Draiman.....one of THE best male vocalists out there. Can go from warm baritone to angelic tenor, to clear as crystal to grit/rasp and back on a dime! ....powerful and soulful voice! Amazing timber to his voice that I've never heard before.....also awesome control. A voice to die for....can give you chills! Loved your reaction Jayy! ....was mine too!
They do a live version that’s outstanding.
He was sick that night too...
That performance brought me to tears.
Disturbed is AMAZING live. One of the best shows I’ve seen.
I remember seeing them open for Korn in the Tacoma Dome. Dave was telling the audience they didn’t need to smoke weed to have a good time, because it seemed the Tacoma Dome was hotboxed. The when Jonathan Davis and Korn came out, JD said “I hear what you’re saying. But I say f*** that s***! Light it up!”
Amazing concert, with two great bands. Didn’t realize at the time, how big they’d both become.
I have listened to it for days and I still hear more every time I listen
Simon and Garfunkle's Original was a warning of things to come. Disturb's version is a wake up call for people that didn't understand the warning, and laments at the state society is in, and hopes to awaken them.
Ridiculously good cover.heard it over and over what a voice
David is a rock star PERSONIFIED! Classically trained singer and able to pull of the "rock" voice with ease. Do some other Disturbed songs. They are phenomenal.
Yeah his voice is powerful. Disturb is a metal rock band so he def have that voice
Roshawn Tyler I see that now
@@THEJAYYSHOW You should check out one of their hard videos just for comparison. Maybe their classic "Down with the Sickness." I agree the live version of Sound of Silence is also amazing.
ruclips.net/video/Bk7RVw3I8eg/видео.html
ruclips.net/video/09LTT0xwdfw/видео.html
brings emotion like a wave to the surface
That silence at the begining is for us to feel and hear silence for ourselves!
This first time I heard this song was back in the 60s from the original album of Simon and Garfunkel. I enjoyed hearing from Disturbed .
The Song has more
Impact with Disturbed
As You feel Emotiios
That Touch the Inner
Core of Your Soul
I was around for Simon and garfunkel,but this version I was in tears.you are not alone.
His voice is hauntingly beautiful
The original was a warning. This was the anger that the warning wasn't heeded.
you have no soul if this song doesn't make you feel something. Good Lord. I cry and get chills everytime. Amazing
I loved your reaction on this awesome song. Your facial reaction showed your surprise and awe. Thank you for the video
This group is amazing! Because of this song you would never think that they were actually a hard rock/metal band. The lead vocalist is very talented with his vocal range.
Goosebumps every single time from this song
A very POWERFUL performance!! He has alot of other songs. All good!! Amazing job!!
This version just blows me away. Such a powerful voice
If you didn't almost shed a tear, you didn't listen to it. First time I saw it, my eyes watered and had a lump in my throat.
You have to watch the live version of "Hold on to the Memories " by Disturbed. It is amazing.
Watched a few of your reactions now, Yeah gotta subscribe, your love for good music, visuals and lyrics is pure. Keep being awesome!
I love the original Simon and Garfunkel version plenty, have for decades. But this version right here...this took it to a whole new level.
He has so many levels to his voice amazing
I cried and was blown away. Simon and Garfunkel first did this song many many years ago but Disturbed’s cover of the song brings out su much emotion. I love that the part he says “And the people bowed and prayed to the neon God they made” how you can feel the anger and frustration at the fact that people are taking a person and treating him/her as a higher power. Such an emotional version
Disturbed had A LOT of bangers. Inside The Fire, The Game, Voices, Down With The Sickness, Shout (another cover), Land of Confusion (another cover) ...all are just the tip of an iceburg of Disturbed..and all are EXTREMELY powerful songs
Your facial reactions while listening to this song are so beautiful... thank you
I so enjoyed your reaction. You had the best reaction I’ve seen and I’ve watched many, many reviews.
This is actually a song by Simon and Garfunkle. It was release in the latter part of the 2960's during a time in this country when our soldiers were fighting a loosing war in Viet Nam, and also during a time where race riots went on in major cities across the U.S.
The lyrics ,
" people tlking without speaking"
Was a reference to how the government wanted protestors to go away.
The other lyric to follow right after that was,
" people hearing without listening", being a reference to the younger protestors knew the truth, but tried to quiet the people by not speaking to them in public, sort of turning a blind eye.
This sing though 56 years later, still holds true today..
I love that you're open to so many different types of music. You're a very lovely and special young lady. Extraordinarily intelligent. I don't believe you know that about yourself yet. It's part of your charm. You're meant to make people happy. It's your gift. You are blessed. Know this.
As an "older fellow", I was very familiar with this song from when Simon & Garfunkel originally released it. I was also familiar with Disturbed's usual music (this AIN'T it!), so when I hard that they were covering this song, my first reaction to the news was "Wait, WHAT!?" Then I heard it, and it blew me away! The original song sounded like literally choirboys were singing it in church, so this cover blew my hat off! This is one of two instances where (my opinion) the cover outdid the original. This cover gave the song something it lacked before: testicles. And yes, David Drayman's voice was epic!
Jayy I loved the reactions on your face when you were watching the video, One of the best I've seen.
Tears n Chills ! Right here. Right now.
When the group Disturbed came out with their version of this song it was the best I've ever heard just amazing.
I knew you had to have reacted to this already. It’s my favorite song and version. Your reaction was just what I thought it would be. Great.
It’s so powerful. You must check out Save Our Last Goodbye, A Reason To Fight, and Hold On To Memories
