Paul Simon is a musical genius and wrote this masterpiece when he was just 21 years old.. It should be noted that “the sound of silence” is not a good thing. Rather it is indicative of people being unable to effectively communicate with each other, particularly on an emotional level. Yet the implication as presented is that these people are not cognizant that such an effect even exists. Or rather the reason “the sound of silence” is so strong is because people deem it to be more important than its aftereffect. And in that regard it has been theorized that Simon & Garfunkel are issuing a warning against the threat of mas mid-20th century social isolationism. In other words, a form of media which may have been deemed as propagating introversive behavior back in those days was the television. And as such, it is feasible that the “neon light” referred to in this song is in fact an allusion to a television set or something of the sort.
Or in todays world Cell Phones! They are isolating all of us.
It is amazing how tones of the past continue to ring true in the now or future...interpreted in today's time, this could be about cancel culture or political correctness.
A dystopian future when music and expression is shut down. Welcome to cancel culture?
on the toity
one of the greatest songs ever written
"You saw what happened, yet, within your silence, you did NOTHING." A US Army Captain addressing German citizens who lived outside a German Death Camp. One lesson is that we should never hesitate to speak out in the face of evil.
good message, but not the message of the song.
nope
Lon Fowler-YOU NAILED IT!!!!💥🔥💥
Keith Woods: "russian" oligarchs.
Igor Kolomoisky.
Great russian famine, Holodomor, Famine in Khazakhstan, Lazar Kaganovich, Genrikh Yagoda, Aron Solts, Filipp Goloshchyokin, Yakov Yurovsky, Lazar Kogan, Matvei Berman, Naftaly Frenkel, Salomon Morel, Helena Brus.
If this is how you reacted to the lyric version, you definitely should have done the video version, guys. It's a great video. A new take on an old classic, and a great take at that....
The video is much better for this song!
Absolutely 👍
ruclips.net/video/u9Dg-g7t2l4/видео.html
The video version is equally amazing as the conan version in my opinion. Both are masterpieces
Absolutely. The visuals really reinforce the emotions of this classic. 🤘😝
@@squeekfrogman8787 100% agree
Simon & Garfunkel wrote this song as a warning to communication breakdown in society. The inability of human interaction and communication. Disturbed brought this song back to our ears and attention...not only to remind us of the lack of communication...but you can hear the anger and pleading in David Draiman's voice because the warning has gone ignored for nearly 60 years since the original version hit the airwaves. The addiction we have to our cell phones, to me, is a great example of the lines "people talking without speaking...people hearing without listening"....This song is an absolute masterpiece
The original will always be the best one
The video is awesome and is a must see because it shows what the song is about. The live version of this song on Conan is also just beautiful. This is the best cover of this Simon & Garfunkel song that I've ever heard and is true to the spirit of the song while definitely making it their own.
very true, but I hold with the studio version with being slightly better since on the Conan version, he was fighting a cold, which you can hear in the first several bars of the song AND with the studio version you can see the images they chose to make their point. Even Paul Simon of Simon and Garfunkel, has said this is the best cover yet, but having said that Asia and BJ should compare it to the PTX cover, to hear how they differ
@Steve Everett I had heard he mentioned that the Conan performance troubled him, but I couldn't tell. I still think it's a great performance, especially w an orchestra there.
@@bryanCJC2105 he was sick when he sang on Conan
Paul Simon loved this cover so much he pinned it to the top of his twitter. He said they fully captured what Simon and Garfunkel were striving for. That's a wonderful tribute.
This is a great cover of the song by Simon and Garfunkle. You could give them a listen also not for reaction per se but just comparison
Agreed!! You can appreciate this version even more after you hear the original.
Simon and Garfunkel loved the cover. A personal sign off from the original is always a good thing. 🤘😝
I also hate it when the first version of bridge over troubled water that people react to is the Elvis version.
I heard what you said about going outside your door and not being honest cuz it might offend someone. if that is the case, you might want to examine your beliefs and what it is you want to say. maybe there's a reason people are offended? It presents an opportunity to really think about it and try to empathize. You're not going to defend people if you're just a decent kind human being.
If you think this was great you MUST see/listen/EXPERIENCE the live version from Conan. UNBELIEVABLE!!!! Chills galore.
This^^^^
That is the only version I tell ppl to watch 💯
@@nate-404 Absolutely!!🥂
The first time I heard this,....I cried. And still,...even after hearing it over & over, I get chills. I think this is one of the best cover songs ever....
Go watch the video ... the imagery is stunning and so impactful. I can't even ... goosebumps every single time I hear this. The lead singer, David Draiman, was trained as a Jewish cantor, so his technique and foundation is solid, even when he puts distortion on top for the harder songs. Great reaction!
This song was released in 1965 by Simon and Garfunkel. This September 15 2022 the song would have been out for 57 years. It is still relevant today. Some people seems to forgotten this. Thank you Asia and BJ for your reaction to this great cover of a classic song.
David Draiman is an amazing vocalist no matter the style. He is a classically trained singer.
He was a cantor. - "A cantor is a person who leads people in singing or sometimes in prayer. In formal Christian worship, a cantor is a person who sings solo verses or passages to which the choir or congregation responds." You gotta have the chops for that job!
@@Bigdogfindley WRONG!!! HE'S JEWISH! The cantor is, after the rabbi, the most important figure in a Jewish worship service. A cantor not only must possess an excellent singing voice but also must know by heart long passages of Hebrew.
No he is not classically trained.
@@mikeroth7080 I stand corrected
@@mikeroth7080 I just took the first definition I found on Google which is VERY similar to what you said... LET'S TRY ANOTHER ONE FOR FUN: "cantor, (Latin: “singer”, ) also spelled Kantor, also called Chanter, Hebrew Ḥazzan (“overseer”), also spelled Ḥazan, Chazzan, or Chazan,
in JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY,
an ecclesiastical official in charge of music or chants."
I'm sorry if you're butt-hurt...and of course i knew he was Jewish...Douche.
This is an amazing song lyrically. I grew up with the Simon and Garfunkel version. I always thought it was powerful but when I heard this one , I was blown away. My son sent me the link and said, Hey mom, you need to listen to this song
Yes, The S & G version was well done, but with less emphasis and emotion. They put it in words to make folks think. But this guy, oh this guy, he brings it totally home!! Love this version so very much and I also grew up listening to the original!
I did this to my Dad. Tears.
@@zippymacadoo6336 yes, I'm sure there were a lot of tears. Crazy good song.
This cover blew everyone away when released. His incredible vocals and it's arrangement took this it to another level. I think the interpretation of it's meaning gets lost on many reaction channels as the song must be stopped and analyzed before it's done.. ...it's about so much more than silence. I'm new to your channel but it's easy to see ya'll love music. Keep it up,guys
I absolutely love this rendition of this famous ballad - and you guys have some great reactions accordingly so , but I think you interrupted the song too long and too much 😀 It's always been my point of view that reactions , feelings , opinions , and explanations of any song ; should come at the end !!!! But really thank you guys for all your classic rock choices !!! Asia & BJ -- you both ROCK !!!!!!!!!
Originally released as "The Sounds Of Silence" in 1965, this masterpiece of a song has been covered many times....but this version received the thumb of approval by Paul Simon.....what does that tell you!
Believe it or not, the original you refer to, wasn't actually the original. When Simon and Garfunkel first released this song it bombed terribly. So they decided they had no future together and broke up. Then, without their knowledge, a producer re-tooled the song, beefed it up, and released it again.
Instant hit.
David has quite a range for vocal coverage. This was the whole band playing this song.
You need to see the live version on Conan Show. Simply amazing!
This
Unfortunately, he used auto tune in that version. On this studio version, he used pitch correction. The only "pure" version was the live one at The Woodlands, Texas - with Myles Kennedy.
yes^^^
@@russellhenderson381 David was pissed that the producers used auto--tune
The best of all the Disturbed versions is the live performance they did on the Conan O'Brien show from 2016... That performance was nothing short of perfection and it was when David Draiman was sick with some flu or cold... You HAVE to react to that version too... Great reaction on this video too!
Did you know that they used autotune on that live performance? No autotune used on the studio version. There's a guy on RUclips, can't remember his name, who isolates voice tracks and compares autotuned versions to non-auto-tuned versions and then analyses them. He mentioned it on one of his videos.
Never underestimate these screaming and yelling rock singers. When you put them in other situations, many of them really shine. David Draiman (Disturbed) and Corey Taylor (Slipknot/Stone Sour) are prime examples of guys who can literally sing almost anything and sound good and strong. I highly recommend Stone Sours "Bother" or "From Can To Can't" from the Sound City soundtrack. They are both on RUclips. You will be blown away.
Bryan, sir...I couldn't agree more with your insight. These singers are highly skilled and although depending on the particular type or 'genre' (gosh, I hate using that word because it fails to describe...) of music they typically perform, it's real easy to forget how talented and powerful they are with their voices. Some of these singers/vocalists could sing the phonebook and move people to tears...imo of course. To me, this is a beautiful cover of an established classic and by god Disturbed definitely gave this song the respect and emotion that it requires and honestly? I've heard this version of this song many many times yet every time, it never fails to give me those old familiar ducky bumps on my arms just due to how David Draiman delivers the lines with the emotion he can convey...it's simply amazing. Rock on folks ..... 😁
Both of you guys are spot on. Great assessment of their talents.
they definitely gotta visit corey tayloy acoustic to slipnot
@@LuLu_World I just recently discovered the acoustic stuff myself. It’s excellent. Very impressive
@@rogeroran2911 look up Camp Freddy and see him sing for charity with a band of stars
What a power ballad cover. Draiman's voice is beyond incredible and dramatic.
When you get the chance watch the official video. It makes the words/emotion so much more profound.
David Draiman, the lead singer of all of Disturbed songs has an amazing vocal range. He was actually classically trained in his youth which explains his ability to hit the range from soft classical to heavy rock. He is an amazingly talented artist who doesn't get enough credit among first time listeners, especially if their only exposure to him is through "Down with the Sickness."
Listen and watch Simon and Garfunkle do this - they were the original composers and performers. As others have said, they did it as a possibility and Disturbed did it as a reality
I grew up listening to this song by Simon & Garfunkel & have always loved it. I had a lot of their records. Many people have covered this song. Disturbed's version is a much darker take on this song. Peter Hollens & Tim Foust (from Home Free) do a great version of this song. Their voices complement each other perfectly & the layering of their voices is amazing. I hope you will check it out.
Henk Poort did a great rendition of Disturbeds version too
When silence is accompanied by lies, that people actually believe over what they actually see, it becomes more dangerous than silence alone.
Even as a 10-year old child, the lyrics of this song deeply affected me. Disturbed's version of the song is a cover of the original by Simon and Garfunkel.
The original is a poignant, prophetic warning of a future that might come to pass.
Disturbed's version is an epic Jeremiad, calling out those who failed to heed the warning.
No. No its not. I dont know how people make that correlation. The lyrics are the exact same as they were when S&G wrote it originally. STill the same message, and that is people fail to communicate properly because of outside distractions. How is it a warning? Where in the lyrics does it say its a warning? WHen did the original writers say its a warning?? When did Disturbed say they were calling out those who failed to heed the warning? Where are you getting this from??
@@jasonharter4876 Sorry, but no. I made absolutely no claim that the lyrics had changed at all. My comment was about the emotional tone of the performance. Nothing more.
@@Grumpy_Rabbit right...because s&g just new someone would make a cover of their song.
@@jasonharter4876 Right. Because every major, original artist just knows that others will cover their songs, and some will change it up and make it their own, one way or another. Perhaps by changing a haunting folk ballad into an angry jeremiad.
@@Grumpy_Rabbit or...if you listened to the interview, disturbed performed it the way they did because they couldnt figure out a way to make it sound like their other disturbed songs. Neither band had any intention of making it a warning, or fulfilling some sort of S&G prophecy. Your statement isnt even original. I call bullshit on your supposed deep thinking.
I absolutely love your interpretation of this song, I listened, heard & agree with both of you. Absolutely amazing!!! Keep up the awesomeness! 🤘😎🤘🖤🖤🖤🔥🔥🔥
He was classically trained singer. And is very eclectic in the music he likes. Live he sings covers of other songs as well that are really good. It’s hard to believe this song is like 50 yrs old
Not classically trained! He is Jewish and was studying to be a Cantor/singer
I got excited when they said let's get into the video,then saw the words....the Conan live performance of this is amazing! The old saying not to judge a book by it's cover!? The lead singer is classically trained just like a few other rockers that you've reacted to. The song in general is talking about remaining silent when you see tragedies and evil committed to others and remain quiet. From the genocides to civil unrest etc.your non words speak volumes. You're agreeing with the behavior of evil by remaining silent.
Paul Simon started writing this song in 1961 and did not finish it until after JFK was assassinated.
60 years later the meaning of this song is still with us,
A society with vast differences and because of those differences we are unable to communicate with each other.
I was a kid listening to and singing along with this song in the 60s when Simon and Garfunkel did it originally. I was driving home from work when I first heard the Disturbed cover on the radio. It gave me chills and I'm pretty sure my jaw was dropped by the end. Absolutely amazing cover and even better than the original, imo.
Great reaction... Their performance on Conan was priceless...
David was classically trained singer and he is a Cantor. This remake has blown people away.
Not classically trained and he dropped out of rabbinical school. He was training to be a Cantor
@@mikeroth7080 David has several interviews out there that detail his level of vocal training.
You don’t last as long as he has in the industry especially using the vocal fry he can produce without having extensive training.
You can argue semantics all you want but it’s obvious to even a novice that he has received extensive instruction in a variety of disciplines.
This song was written by Paul Simon of Simon and Garfunkel in 1965. Paul Simon was one of the most prolific poets of the 60s, writing often about the human condition. Paul Simon said that this was his favorite cover of his song. Its mine too as Disturbed's delivery is powerful. In another of his songs The Boxer, Paul Simon says "a man hears what he wants to hear".
Draiman is a classically trained operatic singer. He really knows how to use his voice as an instrument without damaging it.
No, he is Jewish and was training to be a Cantor/singer in the Jewish faith!
I really like this version of the song, and have great respect for the delivery, but never forget that the words are Paul Simon's written and recorded in the early 60s
David Draiman has vocal training in his history.He has an exceptional voice that allows him to travel the range scales and to hold notes well.He fits into metal very well.
he is Jewish and was training to be a Cantor/singer in the Jewish faith!
This song was written in 1963 as a warning of the future. Here we are in 2022 and now with social media we are living the world we were warned of. We all have different opinions and I’m pleased this song makes you think of your lives today
Paul Simon contacted David and said that this song is now his. No greater honour
The live version from The Conan O'Brien Show is fantastic, as well. You really can appreciate the vocal range seeing it live. And on top of that....he was sick when he performed the song.
LOVE his voice in this song. I'm a rock/rap fan but grew up on country bc of family. I watched your livestream last night and you was talking about Reba McEntire; she has ALWAYS spoken to me. She is a phenomenal story teller. You talked about a "Reba night" I STRONGLY recommend "Reba McEntire - Fancy" You WILL NOT regret and will love it. "The nights the lights went down in Georgia" is another good one.
Disturbed's version of this song is a reversal of its original message. He sounds full of passion and anger. He's ready to kick ass. That is the opposite of the song's original meaning, which was hopelessness and despair, no escape. They say Simon and Garfunkel both like Disturbed's version, I don't.
Paul Simon wrote the words and music he is a genius and almost no one an touch him. Art Garfunkle sings like an angel ....Paul creates like one.
The most amazing cover ever recorded in my opinion. Can’t listen to this without the world stopping for a few minutes.
Shout out to "Simon and Garfunkel" who released that song of pure wisdom in 1964. The message of that song was relevant back then as it is still today.
It's a cover of one of the best songs Simon and Garfunkle ever made. It's a legendary song. The original was made in the 60's early 70s during the Hippie age. The original is one of the best songs ever written and recorded, which only shows you how much better the Disturbed cover was. Because the writer of the song, Paul Simon ( one of the greatest songwriters, ever), said after hearing the cover with the lead singer of Disturbd, David Draimen covering the song. Paul Simon said, "it's there song now, it's amazing".
I got to see them do this song live at a festival. Talk about chills.
An impeccably brilliant cover of Paul Simon’s genius songwriting!!!❤️
This song is a prophecy. It was written back 50 years ago and it describes where we are now. People “talk” with SnapChat, Instagram, Messenger…..without ever saying a word. People listen with their eyes instead of their ears. Wow!!!
I love how his voice starts out in the basement it’s so low and then he climbs however many octaves just beautifully! Watch him sing it on Conan- you’ll love it! Best group on a late night talk show ever in my opinion!
This version blows Simon and Garfunkel out of the water! This is the best version of the song! The lead singer David draiman has an incredible voice! Even with his other songs! Even though mostly every song has the f word in it! Sounds of silence I still believe is disturbed's best work
This song was written before cell phones, but I think it's about a society overrun by them. Talking without speaking, hearing without listening, texting. Everyone is silent living in their neon phone screens.
Really need to see the official video to get the emotion in the song
Yeah, even Paul Simon (originally his song), said that going forward the song now belonged to Disturbed. I thought that was the biggest compliment imaginable. Great reaction, guys! Y'all should check out the original by Simon & Garfunkle.
Hi guys...so, you must listen to the ORIGINAL version of this song. Simon and Garfunkel. The way it was meant to be heard.. Stay safe, keep listening.
95% of the credit for for the success of this song needs to go to the original writers/performers, Simon and Garfunkel. For writing such powerful, intelligent lyrics. But Disturbed sure sang the hell out it. And sang more clearly. So I could appreciate the lyrics more.
This is an amazing cover. The original was great but so different. The original writers love his version. He is amazing live. Got to see him at a music festival this past fall and he was amazing
Before Disturbed released this version of this song they played it to Paul Simon of Simon and Garfunkel.
Paul Simon said it was the best cover he has ever heard
For me, as a huge fan of the original Simon and Garfunkel version, this cover blew me away, and if you watch the official music video for the Disturbed version, it'll give you chills. This is one of the best covers of any song that I've ever heard (along with Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt and Pentatonix's cover of The Prayer). I definitely recommend watching the official music video for this and also listening to the Simon and Garfunkel original. If you liked this, you won't be disappointed.
Silence was something that occurred during the 60s. Government trying to shut down society protest, Russia not allowing anything to enter the country on the air waves to their people (total silence for the Russian people including any music from outside the country). We had a movement against the war in Vietnam and Equal Rights raging at the same time in America. Simon and Garfunkel had the best backdrop for writing the lyrics of this song. Today the lyrics are given their true nature by Disturbed, a warning that was not heeded and still ignored today. But there is always hope that is portrayed at the end of video as the boat approaches to the silenced masses and the sun is rising again.
this is a GORGEOUS cover of an already gorgeous song from geniuses simon & garfunkel. disturbed added so much depth and emotion, it kills me.
Around three quarters of a billion people have watched the original video on RUclips which is amazing, but there's also a live version from the Conan show which is completely mind blowing too. Apparently, Paul Simon loves this version of his classic song too, which says just about everything.
And this was written 50 years ago. I grew up on the Simon & Garfunkel version, but the song didn't hit home until Disturbed' version. You want to hear their primary sound try "Down with the Sickness."
I think it is interesting to consider what was happening in this Country when Paul Simon wrote the original. The Vietnam war starts, Cuban nuclear crisis happens, Civil Rights movement is front and center (MLK’s I had a dream speech was in 1963), President Kennedy is assassinated, construction of the Berlin Wall begins (a wall the decided Germany into two different countries for nearly 30 years) - these are all things going on int the 2-3 years before the song was written.
Like you said in your reaction, when people don’t speak up it makes everyone more scared to stand up for what is right, which is a cancer.
The neon lights remind me of technology, especially the internet/smartphone that most of us (including myself) are addicted to (a neon god that we worship).
The music video has some powerful imagery with broken instruments representing the damage of silence and a separation between song writers and musicians the represents the decide in people and their inability to communicate. It definitely adds to the emotion of this version of the song if you think about the meaning while you watch.
He is also the lead singer in his other band, "Device". He started Device to do a different style of work outside of Disturbed for some time. I feel he really got into more vocal based work within Device durring that time. Hes VERY talented in vocals. If youve not heard of Device, you should check it out. He would get major lead vocalists from other bands to duo with him on there. Izzy Hale, M Shadows, lots of great other lead singers duoed with him on Device.
That perfect moment of silence at the end between "soouund, and "of silence" is my favorite part of this song
I love that Asia likes Disturbed cuz that's my favorite band like ever you can literally play any of their songs from any of their albums and it's awesome
In the original, Simon and Garfunkel sing their disappointment. He sings his rage. 😎
What Simon and Garfunkel were singing about was people not communicating or loving each other. This song was written when the Vietnam war was going on.
Now you have to watch the official video... THEN the Conan live performance. Love this
YOU WERE NOT READY FOR THE FRY IN HIS VOICE!!!!!!!!!
So many amazing songs by Disturbed. Your reaction to them made me subscribe. I really hope you go down this rabbit hole. You will not be disappointed.
I really enjoyed your reaction to this amazing cover of a classic song. Too many reactors just ramble on, but you were both very insightful and really nailed the meaning of the lyrics. Thank you!
One of the best comments I've heard of this song was the Simon & Garfunkel version was a warning to humanity. The Disturbed version is the angry reply when no one heeded that warning.
Another version of this is by the metal band Nevermore. It’s more of a metal version of this song by Simon and Garfunkel.
And they do a fantastic job also because Warrell Dane has an amazing metal voice
A little context
this a cover. A duo called simon and garfunkel did the original version of this song but this version is my favourite great reaction,just subbed,keep up the great work 👏👏👏
Headphones on...volume up....walls vibrating.... Get ready for a religious experience! Shakes me to my very soul! It's a thing of beauty!
Paul Simon who wrote this song, sang it at the 1st Anniversary of 9/11, it was very powerful.
this song is somewhat timeless, both when it was written, but today as well...One of my favorites from Simon and Garfunkel, also check out "The Boxer" by same...Rock ON!!
I grew up with this original Simom and Garfunkel song . I believe Paul Simon wrote the lyric in with Art Garfunkel. This was a plea from 2 White men, in the 70s to bring Us All no matter what Skin color, TOGETHER. I owned this whole Album. I am 56 and I am white in skin color. My Family never saw color. Rare back in the 1960s. I am proud of my upbringing. Human beings are equal. 🌿🌿🌿
One of the greatest composed lyrics pen put to paper. As other people have noted, I feel this is the greatest cover version I have ever heard of any song.
Amen, Brother.
I agreed with a lot of what you said. However you can definitely tell he is a rock singer by the insanely good vocal fry he did for about a third of the song.🎸☺️
David Draiman, the lead singer, is a versatile, vocal beast. This is a Simon & Garfunkel cover, but this one was switched up just enough to reflect current society. You should check out more of their stuff. "Stricken", "Prayer", or another cover of Genesis "Land of Confusion"....you guys would like any of those.
They didn't 'rock out' but they did add a big rock sound to an all time classic. This is all about the techno age of the 60's and how Paul Simon saw it taking the world away from *each other*. And he was right. Disturbed sounds pissed no one listened.
Yes David Draiman can belt a tune, he is noted for his distorted,operatic, baritone voice and percussive singing style. In 2006, he was ranked at No. 42 on the "Hit Paraders" list of "Top 100 Metal Vocalists of All Time".
This is a very famous song by simon and garfunkle and many covers have been done. But this is the best one. Simon and Garfunkle had some amazing songs.
Disturbed are amazing live & david's voice is unbelievable.
Duo performance avec Myles Kennedy
Disturbed has done a few cover songs. This one is by far their best and it’s the best cover of this song, period. Even Paul Simon thinks so. Simon & Garfunkel wrote this to convey man's lack of communication with his fellow man. Just as relevant today as when it was penned. Listen to the original. Also listen to Land of Illusion my Genesis and the Disturbed cover. They also covered Metallica’s Fade to Black.
This was written in the early 60's by Paul Simon, released by Simon and Garfunkel around 1964.
I like the way you ooh and over the lyrics as if it wasn't written almost 60 years ago by Paul Simon. It's adorable. I love you guys.
One of the bands that influenced my music and got me on the heavier side! He’s one of the greatest vocalists in rock music
Y'all need to find the version in which he does this a capella. This is a tune originally by Simon & Garfunkel circa 1970+/-
David Draiman was classically trained to be a Jewish Cantor. This song was written by Paul Simon in 1964 just months after the JFK assassination. It was the song that launched the career of Simon and Garfunkel. Simon contacted Draiman after they released this cover of his song and endorsed it as the best version ever.
Rock is a super diverse genre, definitely can't judge by the heavier side 😊 a lot of profound stories are told through rock
This song effects everyone the same way. Wow, just wow!!. Your serious looks told it all. An amazing cover of this song.
David has one of the greatest singing voices I’ve ever heard, and I’ve listened to a lot of music in 33 years. He is amazing live in concert.
This is one of my favorite remakes. One that is more enjoyable than the original...... his voice just grabs you
There are only two covers that I have said were the only version of said song I will listen to now. This is one, and God Bless the USA by Home Free (ft Lee Greenwood and the US Air Force Band) is the other. Both songs are masterpieces in their own right, and both covers got the approval of the original artist.
David Draimen is outstanding at added amazing effect to a song. This is a great cover they also did a cover of Genesis’ song Land of Confusion.
This is actually a cover of *Simon & Garfunkel (Sound of Silence)*
This is one of the times where the cover is better than the original *IMO*
I think the best comparative description I've seen was Simon & Garfunkel's version was a optimistic warning and Disturbed's version is angry the warning was ignored.
