Notice the arch of musicians crossing the river to the land where people are holding sheet music, they need each other to fill the silence with the universal language of music.
Good grief! All you young’ens make me feel ancient. Yes, it’s a cover, yes, you probably heard the first line used in a zillion memes, yes the song is over half a century old and still just as relevant today as it was then. A classic. S&G got lucky with how this song became symbolic folk song of the ‘60’s and beyond cumulating with becoming an integral part of the soundtrack to “Mrs. Robinson”. Both versions are excellent but David’s incredible voice and the band’s arrangement of this version is outstanding. It’s is one of the best, if not THE best, of a cover ever made. Even with your interruptions you still got chills from hearing him sing. This cover hits so many people in so many ways it’s a new classic all over again. Glad you enjoyed. Now go listen to it, headphones on, no stopping.
I've watched tons of reactions to this version of the Simon and Garfunkel classic and I cant believe just how many people don't know this song. How is it even possible that one of the most iconic songs ever written can be such a mystery to so many.
Ditto about checking out the live version on Conan. Despite being sick that night, David Draiman still gave a performance for the ages, complete with an orchestra. Their performance put them on Paul Simon's radar. He reached out to the group after the performance and congratulated them on the delivering the best cover of one of his songs and posted a link to the performance on his social media. Conan even celebrated the performance as the first video from his show to get 100 million views.

I really enjoyed this reaction! You guys are great! Discovered you because I am a Home Fry(thank you for those!) I will add that as an American, I am absolutely positive that there are many famous and popular British songs that I don’t know!! Not to mention it was famous before you were born! While so many in the comments couldn’t believe you didn’t know the song, I couldn’t believe how rude people are! Thank you for a wonderful reaction!!🤗❤️
Simon & Garfunkel's original in 1964 was the warning. This is the rage of not heeding the warning. It's about not communicating with one another. Possible the best cover ever done. Disturbed do a good live version on Conan O'Brien. One of the best versions I've heard is with Disturbed and Myles Kennedy. Myles is Art Garfunkel to David Draiman's Paul Simon "Disturbed - The Sound of Silence [Live in Houston w/ Myles Kennedy]" ruclips.net/video/H3By4DZyTNM/видео.html The boat is bringing the instruments to the people on the shore with sheet music. Disturbed are normally a very metal band. Everyone was taken back when they put this out. Check how many views on the official video. Just mind blowing. Last time I looked it was over 500 million view
David wasn't happy with the Conan performance, the network added too many vocal effects that he did not want to do, but he gave in because he was sick during the performance.
@@blackguardharper7005 Yep heard about that problem, that's why I sort of lean towards the Myles Kennedy/Disturbed live version at Houston. Has the concert feel for me
I have to thank the Band DISTURBED & their management for Dedicating this song to our son Michael who was killed by a Drunk Driver on the venue he was killed. Every word in this song was the path our son had to take that deadly night. The first time I heard it my heart dropped. I reached out to them & they honored our son. God bless them. 🙏🙏🙏 Our son had 3 little girls at the time. Their ages were 8, 5 & the baby just turned a year old. He was attending a Jason Aldean concert that night when he was struck & killed. This dedication is on RUclips. His daughters cherish this. 💙🙏💙
I would like to 1st say, Thank you, for sharing your story about your loss of your son. So sorry for your loss. Prayers and hugs to you. As a longtime Disturbed fan, I think you and your granddaughters would enjoy their songs, The Light and Hold on to Memories. 🙏🏻🕊
@@Sassy_Kat I love those songs. The Light inspires me. I absolutely hold on to all the beautiful memories of him. God bless you. Thank you with all my heart. 💜🙏💜
David Draiman .....BEST vocalist there is!! Controlled and just awesome talent! The smoothness if wanted....the rasp WITH vibrato if wanted....pure if wanted and unbelievable range!
I've learned that David Draiman and Disturbed address depression, addiction and suicide during every concert, performance offering support and understanding. They are one of the⁶ most popular, loved bands of our time!❤😊
- Please, don't kill the construction of a musical phrase. You have to feel where to insert a pause! - The original is pure poetry and melancholy.

Hmmm.......? 🤔 Last I knew that was the point of a reaction video, at least that is what I heard from them, but I suppose I could be wrong..?... doubt it, though it is possible.... 😏😆 Stay safe and healthy, ✌️😁👍
Bless your hearts.... You might have understood it had you not talked over it the whole time trying to figure out where you heard it. You missed the lyrics. 😥 Simon & Garfunkel wrote it as a warning regarding technology ruining communication. Paul Simon once said he wished he had sang it this way.
Your facial reactions say it all !!! This is an amazing cover of a brilliant song, 1st done by Simon & Garfunkel warning us, if we don't change our ways we are headed for destruction, and Disturbs version is angry, because we didn’t listen to the warnings... 😌 I always feel this song is like an amazing rollercoaster ride, as you are heading to the top, then almost crashing to the bottom.....You guys are really fun to watch!!!
David is a Jewish Cantor .... And he sings this song from his soul......A very Powerful Message from God to all of us... The words of the Prophets are Written....His Anger when they bowed to neon gods.... BEAUTIL SONG>>>>>
You two are cool. The song was rather popular in the Simon and Garfunkel era in the 60's. It was good in its time. Disturbed is much better to me. Great job guys.
This song has so many different meanings... When schools, especially public schools from kindergarten through high school run out of funding the first programs they cut ✂️ are the art's, music, theater etc. Also, ISOLATION, DIVISION, LONELINESS, NOT COMMUNICATING, NOT STANDING UP FOR OUR RIGHTS OR EXPRESSING OURSELVES AND WHAT WE BELIEVE IN, I could go on and on. 😢
Guys, you are the first to realize that the beginning means "silence". So- I immediately understood that the soundlessness at the beginning of the video is just that, "The Sound of Silence". Is that so hard to understand? Most listeners think there is something broken in their headphones or sound boxes!? But the silence reflects just this impossibility to get along without music or communication. The original of S+G is a lukewarm air compared to this version: David sings relatively quietly and telling, increases with the text in the volume and urgency and is angry towards the end, because of the ignorance of the people. Great performance and absolutely convincing strength of the text and the accompanying vocal power.
This song was written in 1964 by Simon & Garfunkle, it's was an anti-war song. David Draiman trained in the US and Israel for over 20 years to be a cantor, like his father and world-famous grandfather.
This is a cover of the Simon & Garfunkel's original from the 60's. As I saw someone else say they sang the song giving a warning, Disturbed sang it showing their anger for ignoring the warning.
This is a powerful cover of a song written in 1965 (Paul Simon; Simon & Garfunkel)!! "Disturbed" has never done a song like this before as they are a Hard Rock/Metal group!! This is truly my favorite song recorded in the past 5 years!! Wondrous and remarkable this is so far removed from Disturbed's typical music that (EVERYONE?) is taken aback and or blown away!! Not until this was released (12/2015) did anyone feel these lyrics so intensely!! This is so much more dominant and dynamic than the 1965 original; not necessarily better!! *This song SHOULD be listened to by anyone who likes music; all genre listeners should experience this song!! IMO, 2 more magical songs, check out Heart paying tribute to Led Zeppelin (2012) in front of the boyz!! Beautiful Powerful Incredible Version!! = ruclips.net/video/8e2fJfiddx4/видео.html and then listen to Johnny Cash remake a Nine Inch Nail song (Electronic Grunge) and own it!! = ruclips.net/video/8AHCfZTRGiI/видео.html *if you feel like seeing/hearing something original and extraordinary check this out... I'm not sure this could be improved upon = ruclips.net/video/b5nRY4qa1C4/видео.html .
@@user-yuri665 how is that an argument? Take "Hurt" by Nine Inch Nails, if you show a friend the version by Johnny Cash to someone and they talk all the way through would you just think "well, they've listened to the song" or, would you say "shut the fuck up and listen, I know you know the lyrics it's a different interpretation".
CONAN LIVE!!! It's even better than the official video!!! The live version got the thumbs up from the original writer/performer ( Paul Simon.) It was mentioned that David Draiman was classically trained. Well... kinda. He was born in Brooklyn, NY to an orthodox Jewish family. His first language(s) were Hebrew and Yiddish. He comes from a long line of Orthodox Cantors in the Synagogue. Disappointing his family, he went into rock. Catch an interview or two. Super humble and funny. Did you notice that this video has nearly 650 Million views!
Be sure to watch their live performance on Conan. NOTE: that David Draiman was really sick for the Conan live performance and I heard he was not pleased with his performance, being the perfectionist that he is I can understand why he felt that way. However, the production as a whole was amazing and his performance was EXCEPTIONAL! I loved it. So POWERFUL and EMOTIONAL! Thanks, Diane Disturbed "The Sound Of Silence" 03/28/16 | CONAN on TBS Team Coco
For Disturbed...PLEASE DO........Down With the Sickness........Into the Fire.........other bands like them try .......BadWolves.....Zombie.....Remember When......and Five Finger Death Punch.....Wrong Side of Heaven
Go ahead and do more Disturbed reactions, you and your viewers won't be disappointed. Stricken, Inside the Fire, Indestructible, Another Way to Die, The Vengeful One (best video I've ever seen), Land of Confusion (another cover), Asylum, A Reason to Fight (the official live video)... Amazing band with a great catalogue
David is a wonderful singer. Check out the live version on Conan. What was even more amazing was the fact he was so ill that night with a high fever sore throat etc and he pulled it off brilliantly. Also Down with the Sickness is a nice heavy song of theirs which is really good. Check it out and thank you for the reaction :)
Another version of this song that you would enjoy would be when Pentatonix covered it. It gives a different vibe, but just as inspiring as this rendition. Pentatonix is all acapella, so no instruments, just their voices.
I've been running through reactions of this for quite a while now and just came to yours...a bit late, but...eh. I would advise that you listen to the original by Simon & Garfunkel. I heard it growing up, thanks to my parents. I heard the words, but never listened to the lyrics, never really paid attention to them because (in my opinion) they did not do this song justice. They were too soft, too gentle. They meant it as a warning, but it felt...hopeless to me when they sang it back when. This song was made for David. He gave it the anger and power it'd been lacking. I finally LISTENED to the lyrics. (as the song says - people hearing without listening). The lyrics are vitally important to this song.
The live version on Conan show was better I believe!!! But David Draiman the singer n Disturbed are an amazing band!! This was originally by Simon and Garfunkel in the 60's, when Paul Simon heard it he cried and said it was meant for Disturbed to sing!
Listen to the original. Paul Simon is warning of the way society is going. Listen to this. David is rebuking everyone for not listening Paul's warning.
YES! The official Music Video has a very powerful message. If you do react to that one, PLEASE, for the love of all things holy, let the entire video play all the way through! :)
David Draiman is classically trained, and in my humble opinion is wasting that beautiful voice doing thrash metal. It’s so beautiful, and this version of Simon & Garfunkel’s classic is even better than the original. How can that be? Yet it’s is, even Paul Simon gave it his blessing
Guys, this is a song that was super famous in the sixties by a band called Simon and Gardunkle. You should do a little research before reacting. If you knew the original, you may be able to critique better.
As with most things, I think there’s a happy medium. In this case I’m referring to making comments/reacting to a performance. Maybe you could react to it at the end. Talk to your heart’s content, then. I suggest that only because I feel like you may miss out on the overall “flow” of the video.
Great reaction! Please , can you react to some Linkin park songs. I propose Faint live Rock am Ring in 2007. Chester's vocal (the singer) is awesome !! Best live of history 😁😁👍
💖💖💖💖💖 your reaction & this song is incredible 👍💖🎶🎸🔥 david draiman has one of THE BEST voices, he's amazing 💖👍🎶🔥 & one of my favorites.I suggest you react to more disturbed & Linkin Park, Chester's voice is just unreal 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Wow, these 2 make me feel ashamed to be English... listen, pause, and talk. It's an iconic song covered to the highest level possible to the point of taking it to a different meaning.
This is the best cover ever made. The original was made in the early 60's by Simon and Garfunkel. Paul Simon the writer and singer think is cover is better..
Blah blah blah original is warning, cover is rage at unheeded warning Blah blah blah trained Cantor Blah blah blah Paul Simon seal of approval Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Down With The Sickness Did I summarize 90% of the comments?
I always read comments while video is playing and the moment I saw people mentioning how you kept talking through the video I stopped watching. Moving on to next reactioner.
We have just released a reaction to the Live version from the Conan show ruclips.net/video/9E1N6jTJR4A/видео.html . I think it's safe to say we learnt our lesson as the comments are much more nicer lol -Dave
It would help to increase the likes on your channel and the describes if you would do research on the history of a song.I was disapointed when I founf out that you hadn't gotten a clue where the song originated and who originally sung it. It's a song icon and music history.
I don't expect a pair of Brits to know EVERYTHING about American music. I hope no Brit expects me to know EVERYTHING about British music. There's literally an ocean of difference. Lighten up a little bit.
I’m dying that people are complaining that you talk too much. It’s a reaction. If you want to hear it without I interruption, watch the original. Idiots. 😂
This is without doubt one of the best comments I've seen for a while :) You wouldn't believe how many people slate us for not talking. And yet we also get slated for talking too much lol ;) either way we can't win, but it's certainly nice to have someone stick up for us..cheers -Dave
Pink Shirt guy, you are quite Loud & you seem to like the sound of your own voice as well, just my observes but You were so loud @ the end, you spoke for the sake of speaking even though you had nothing to add. Other dude, you're humble & stuff but the pair of you need to help yourselves out by doing a little homework or @ least have the Lyric's in front of you so you might be able to understand what's being sung. Also, if you playing a Cover maybe find who the original artist is, it could be handy. Ok, thanks for your reaction.

No research.

Good grief! All you young’ens make me feel ancient. Yes, it’s a cover, yes, you probably heard the first line used in a zillion memes, yes the song is over half a century old and still just as relevant today as it was then. A classic. S&G got lucky with how this song became symbolic folk song of the ‘60’s and beyond cumulating with becoming an integral part of the soundtrack to “Mrs. Robinson”. Both versions are excellent but David’s incredible voice and the band’s arrangement of this version is outstanding. It’s is one of the best, if not THE best, of a cover ever made.

And another banger! :)
Simon and Garfunkle are the originals.
ah thank you :)
People with sheet music one side instruments on other side coming together to end the sound of silence

I've been running through reactions of this for quite a while now and just came to yours...a bit late, but...eh. I would advise that you listen to the original by Simon & Garfunkel. I heard it growing up, thanks to my parents. I heard the words, but never listened to the lyrics, never really paid attention to them because (in my opinion) they did not do this song justice. They were too soft, too gentle. They meant it as a warning, but it felt...hopeless to me when they sang it back when. This song was made for David. He gave it the anger and power it'd been lacking. I finally LISTENED to the lyrics. (as the song says - people hearing without listening). The lyrics are vitally important to this song.
The live version on Conan show was better I believe!!! But David Draiman the singer n Disturbed are an amazing band!! This was originally by Simon and Garfunkel in the 60's, when Paul Simon heard it he cried and said it was meant for Disturbed to sing!
that's how it screams the silent ;)
Listen to the original. Paul Simon is warning of the way society is going. Listen to this. David is rebuking everyone for not listening Paul's warning.
You guys go ...
Simon and Garfunkel
01:50 Simon & Garfunkle did the original version in about 1964
Please react to FFDP Wrong side of Heaven!
YES! The official Music Video has a very powerful message. If you do react to that one, PLEASE, for the love of all things holy, let the entire video play all the way through! :)
David Draiman is classically trained, and in my humble opinion is wasting that beautiful voice doing thrash metal. It’s so beautiful, and this version of Simon & Garfunkel’s classic is even better than the original. How can that be? Yet it’s is, even Paul Simon gave it his blessing
Fun Fact: David Draiman was classically trained in opera
* Well known fact
and FFDP, Wash it all Away!
Guys, this is a song that was super famous in the sixties by a band called Simon and Gardunkle. You should do a little research before reacting. If you knew the original, you may be able to critique better.
Read the words to the song. You’ll get it. I hope.
Are you kidding me; Simon&Garfunkel, easy the finest poets of the moders era......
Awesome reaction guys.. check out five finger death punch. Wash it all away,, Blue on Black,,, more from disturbed also please.
Will check it out 👍... Kev
Also check out Homefree they are a great group
Keep 👀 open 👍 we have a few of there's coming out soon.... 😁 Kev
Check out Pentatonix version of "Sound if Silence" it's all A Capella no instruments.
We've just recorded Sound of silence from them. Not edited it yet though 😉👍-dave
As with most things, I think there’s a happy medium. In this case I’m referring to making comments/reacting to a performance. Maybe you could react to it at the end. Talk to your heart’s content, then. I suggest that only because I feel like you may miss out on the overall “flow” of the video.
RUclips copyright/fairuse policy do not allow this sorry any less breaks block video 🙏... Kev 👍
Ahh. Ok, I see. Thanks for the response. Carry on, then. Lol.
Go through disturbs catalog it’s great and get some slipknot it’s a Halloween 🤣🤣🤣🙌
Great reaction!
Please , can you react to some Linkin park songs. I propose Faint live Rock am Ring in 2007. Chester's vocal (the singer) is awesome !! Best live of history 😁😁👍
We plan on reacting to the music video ''Given Up'' real soon :) -Dave
💖💖💖💖💖 your reaction & this song is incredible 👍💖🎶🎸🔥 david draiman has one of THE BEST voices, he's amazing 💖👍🎶🔥 & one of my favorites.I suggest you react to more disturbed & Linkin Park, Chester's voice is just unreal 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
We will be doing many more 👍 😊.... Kev
Good job guys.. try Disturbed - The Light.. its awesome
Will note it down 👍 😁.... Kev
Wow, these 2 make me feel ashamed to be English... listen, pause, and talk. It's an iconic song covered to the highest level possible to the point of taking it to a different meaning.
Very early on in our channel this was recorded. We've learnt a lot since then. soz -Dave
I like your oversimplified reactions
This should be the Covid-19 anthem worldwide!
Agree 👍... Kev
This is the best cover ever made. The original was made in the early 60's by Simon and Garfunkel. Paul Simon the writer and singer think is cover is better..
Guys I love your reactions, but please don't cut the videos so much it's pretty disgusting that.
Please react to Stone Temple Pilots song Still Remains
swimon and granfunkel
simon
You should react to the live performance on The Conan Show.
Yea SIMON AND GARFUNKEL 🙄
scandinavians ;)
Blah blah blah original is warning, cover is rage at unheeded warning
Blah blah blah trained Cantor
Blah blah blah Paul Simon seal of approval
Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Down With The Sickness
Did I summarize 90% of the comments?
You seem very angry lol
@@tumainitiger4655 Your assumption is incorrect.
Is he on a treadmill?
I always read comments while video is playing and the moment I saw people mentioning how you kept talking through the video I stopped watching. Moving on to next reactioner.
We have just released a reaction to the Live version from the Conan show ruclips.net/video/9E1N6jTJR4A/видео.html . I think it's safe to say we learnt our lesson as the comments are much more nicer lol -Dave
If you repeatedly pause it. . I'm out
More like a chat show with themselves, rather than a reaction video 😑. I switched off.
hoho..
It would help to increase the likes on your channel and the describes if you would do research on the history of a song.I was disapointed when I founf out that you hadn't gotten a clue where the song originated and who originally sung it.
It's a song icon and music history.
I don't expect a pair of Brits to know EVERYTHING about American music. I hope no Brit expects me to know EVERYTHING about British music. There's literally an ocean of difference. Lighten up a little bit.
I’m dying that people are complaining that you talk too much. It’s a reaction. If you want to hear it without I interruption, watch the original. Idiots. 😂
This is without doubt one of the best comments I've seen for a while :) You wouldn't believe how many people slate us for not talking. And yet we also get slated for talking too much lol ;) either way we can't win, but it's certainly nice to have someone stick up for us..cheers -Dave
Please do your research before you react to a song & stop talking of er it. Listen!
Try listening to a few verses sometime.....bye.....
Pink Shirt guy, you are quite Loud & you seem to like the sound of your own voice as well, just my observes but You were so loud @ the end, you spoke for the sake of speaking even though you had nothing to add. Other dude, you're humble & stuff but the pair of you need to help yourselves out by doing a little homework or @ least have the Lyric's in front of you so you might be able to understand what's being sung. Also, if you playing a Cover maybe find who the original artist is, it could be handy. Ok, thanks for your reaction.
lower your voice and turn up the sound of the video. It's really anoying
And BTW it is a cover of simon and garfunkel
Be sure to watch their live performance on Conan. NOTE: that David Draiman was really sick for the Conan live performance and I heard he was not pleased with his performance, being the perfectionist that he is I can understand why he felt that way. However, the production as a whole was amazing and his performance was EXCEPTIONAL! I loved it. So POWERFUL and EMOTIONAL! Thanks, Diane
