Thanks for listening yis' beauts! This track will be up on streaming platforms later on in the week! As always: 1) Leave your suggestions below! I read them all and all of my covers and comment-requests. It's a long list, but I'll get through them! 2) I'm still working on the Song of Durin cover. Still contemplating covering one of the versions out there or doing my own. 3) I can't wait to hear the autotune comments on this one haha! 4) Stay very handsome, yis' beauts!
I’ve both had a drug addiction and heavy depression, but I’ve never been that high or low in my life as this man’s vocal range. I was silenced by the sound of you version of the sound of silence. Well done sir!
I have been listening to the Disturbed cover of this endlessly lately, and I just thought the other day "Man, I hope Colm will cover it one day." - I would say 'Get out of my brain', but I enjoy your music too much to kick you out. Excited for this!
I never thought I would come across a cover better than disturbed. Then this big beautiful angel of of man hits every note available in his registry to give us a masterpiece... Well done.
Duuuuude, you give me goosebumps and tickle my brain with this version! Those deep notes? Dayum! Love how you change tone and your Irish accent comes out! Much respect to you from over the shores in Scotland
Ayyy cheers, mate! I never really sang in my accent before this year and had largely fallen out of singing altogether, so this feels a lot for genuine for me and I'm so happy with everyone's reception to it. Tapadh leat, mata!
@@ColmRMcGuinness Mate, your accent has been such a presence in my life that I've started singing with it (I have a baritone tenor range) and honestly your voice is amazing, I'm wondering if your lows are subharmonics or just extremely low chest notes though.

Colm you have such an abnormal gorgeous voice. Sometimes I can't even believe your vocals could be real at all. Thanks a lot! You're truly a fantastic artist!
As someone who deals with depression and writes to fight it, you gave life to a song that has become an anthem for so many who feel like they're drowning. You brought it to new listeners and old alike and made us hear the message buried in the song. Thank you!!!!
I absolutely love your switches between bass and high baritone (or tenor? I'm not good at differentiating yet) - You placed the pitches perfectly in my opinion, with bass at the heavy drear parts, and the high parts at the moments where you feel the *frustration* in the song. The transition at 1:32 from bass to baritone was so smooth it sounded like two different singers, which I find incredible! The arrangement was great, it's always a treat to hear variation in covers! It makes them unique and makes the singer stick in your mind a lot more. I enjoyed it tremendously, especially the forceful choir at 2:14! It truly felt like someone desperately trying to reach through to others. And then the final verse- Gosh the chills! Going into the highest notes for the song, it really felt like it emphasized the fury and frustration of the singer - And the final bass at 3:39 perfectly rounded the entire experience. And interestingly, to me rather than feeling like a sad final note (like in Disturbed's version) or a resigned "I give up", it felt like it continued the anger - A deep, heavy growl. Absolutely fantastic arrangement, amazing vocals and range! I'm sorry I ramble without knowing all the terms, but you are an amazing singer and I enjoy your work a lot! As an added note, it's always wonderful hearing your accent in your songs!
Don't apologize for giving very specific compliments! It's always extra special to hear about your own work, and it's more fun for the rest of us too! I agree that this is a great version, and definitely unique to Colm!
I have noticed his accent changes a bit between the registers too. Sometimes it feels as if it is two different people singing which obviously it isn't. I assume it is necessary to place the words differently in the oral cavity to produce the lower register than the high.
I don't have the music literacy to put into words why, but I always find this version of the song giving me chills in the best way. And I really appreciate you articulating what he did so that I can listen more closely and recognize what he is doing to make it sound so amazing
@@EthuilielCyneburg That's such a nice comment, thank you! I don't have a lot of technical music literacy either, could only really go on the very basics and emotions, but the great thing about music is that it's a very emotional medium!
to this day i never understood why sometimes people started crying when listening to somebody singing. but at 2:15 my tears suddenly just poured down out of nowhere. this cover was just so beautiful and hit very hard. thank you, sir, for sharing this masterpiece with us! ❤️
And the people bow and prayed To the song cover He'd made As the app sent out its warning And the live chat, it was forming And the Bard sang out with a voice like the thunderer's might, it brought the light And then he'd say, Stay Handsome.
I love it... BTW... Colm has my email from Insta so you can grab it from him or ask him to pass on your music files to me... Looking forward to hearing what you have done ☺️
Here is what sets you apart from other RUclips creators, your deep musical knowledge. Being able to sing a harmony part and turn it into the melody is amazing! I got major chills with your rendition. As always, keep up the outstanding work, my friend. God Bless!!!
Brilliant brilliant brilliant,I have been hoping so much that you would do this one Colm, in fact I think I asked you a few weeks ago and I am so pleased you’re going to sing this I can barely wait until tomorrow. Woohoo.
It rare that a song or a certain voice is so beautiful that it sinks into my bones physically and literally this has both...and it's also a cover of one of my all time fav songs which is just adds extra amazingness
His voice is a musical instrument. What a gift! My favorite--- song of his --"I want to be in the calvary", because I was once--in Vietnam. (2nd. of the 7th. Air Cav)
I think this really captures the best interpretation of this song. The unrealized potential of several billion people whose voices are left muted, a choir of silent singers. It's the promise of a song so grand and powerful when we all join in. Yes, there's frustration and distress because the singers are staying silent, but you can't be frustrated by something you don't WANT. This story has a happy ending. We're just not there yet.
How you switch so swiftly between lows and highs is beyond me. But either way I absolutely love it. I also love being able to hear the lilt of your accent as you sing too. Love listening to your covers!!
What a growling silence it was! Goosebumping chorus and a brilliant switch between the high and low at the end. Another fantastic cover under your belt.
Everytime I hear a new song I hadn't heard by Colm before, I am always blown away at the range and the expertise in arrangement. Simply stunning. How is he not the most famous person in the world right now?
Colm you’re a bloody genius I hope you know that. You have an entire choir just in your voice! I LOVE this song and this version is stunning. Once again we’ll done hon. Regards from you Priestess of Bridget.
WoW ! What a song ! Your voice is beautiful and the cover is amazing ! Thank you for sharing this song with us ! About the Song of Durin ! I can't wait to hear it ! :) I'm sure the song you will sing will be amazing and beautiful :)
Mindblowing love colms voice. Im speachless I dont know who's version is my favorite. Colms deep voice and emotion in the song is beyond words. Disturbed's is more pure voice but another hit for colm regardless.
The last time I ever listened to this song was with my mother and my sister's kids... Only today do I dare to listen to it again, thank you for this. I will always be reminded of her because of how much she enjoyed the song. Blessed be Colm, and thank you again.
I adore this song to begin with, so the promise of it getting the Colm treatment of course had me excited. But, damn! As always, he blew my expectations clear out of the water.
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 dared 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 whispered in the sound of silence
Brazilian girl here. Colm, the end of this song hits differently. My fav part is at minute 3:22. I feel hope. I imagine all bad things that exist in the world and feel something that I can't describe. Something like: "There's a light that never goes out". This is amazing. Thank you.
Wow. Just WOW... What a great Statement of Your Voice. A different way to sing this Masterpiece, but a great way. Thank You for sharing Your Voice with us!
This is one of my favorite songs and disturbed just doesn’t go deep enough and you went far beyond that i thought you could and you gave me goosebumps all over
Wow this is awesome. Especially cause you did the most parts in your low voice. It sounded so good. But man even the high parts. Wow. Chills all over my body. I can't wait to get this on spotify. Also I just wanted to thank you that you start putting your work on spotify and other platforms. That way I can listen to them a LOT more. And you can be assured that it will be a lot.
I am super impressed and have to say I'm in love with the new mic. I definitely can hear a quality difference in the recordings. I have to say this will be right up there with Disturbed's and Pentatonix's covers of this song. You did amazing!😊
I am currently recovering from kidney stones hoping to pass them soon and i have been listening to your songs on repeat! Thanks for saving me from boredom
I wish you success and a speedy recovery. Have your doctors heard of extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy? Well, the alternative is to play Colm's song up against the area of the calculi. "Strain your urine." It's weird to have so many people reminding you to sieve your piss!
Oh my...incredible. You have officially taken the spot of my favourite song. Previous was the same song by Disturbed. Which is still amazing but this version with your incredibly deep notes is perfection.
You have the most brilliant voice i have heard in my whole lifetime. Talented beyond words. I thought I heard my favourite version of this song before,that was until I heard your voice. Your voice is the voice of angels.
I just discovered your channel and I have to say. You are definitely blessed by the God's your beautiful voice pulled me out of a deep hole. Thank you and thank the God's for me finding you at suck a critical time in my life.
THANK YOOOOOOU!!! I know I'm not the only, nor the first, to suggest this one, but two weeks ago I dropped it in the comments on another video with a SONG SUGGESTION tag. :-) So awesome to hear you sing this with your AMAZING VOICE!!! I like the altered composition of this. It's the same song, but sung as if a Sea Shanty Singin' Nort'man had sung it. I'd love to see a collaboration between some of the deepest voiced singers on RUclips. You Mr. McGuinness, Tim Faust, Geoff Castellucci, and I KNOW there are several other folks who have such beautifully deep gifted voices that I can't readily remember off the top of my head. Of course, I have trouble remembering what I had for breakfast some days. :-/ Either way would REALLY like to see such a collaboration! :-)
This is now my favorite rendition of The Sound of Silence. If not my favorite song in general. Thank you for sharing your beautiful talent with people.
Your rendition of one of my lifetime favorites has been masterful, emotional and powerful. Thank you from the bottom of this old ladies heart. Thank you for the opportunity to share in your passion and massive talent!🇨🇦

Your accent lends itself surprisingly well to this song. Makes it feel more like a melancholy folk song.

The vocal range on this is incredible, I can see I'm not the only one that is impressed.
I would ABSOLUTELY love to hear you sing Hallelujah (the Lee dewyze version) at least once in my life, I would be incredibly satisfied with it all.
He's part of a collab that I think covered that song which just released recently.
I love how you can hear the inspiration from both Simon & Garfunkel and Disturbed’s cover, especially in the phrasing. Super cool!
And here I thought Disturbed's version was bone chilling. You sir do this song amazingly. I love both your version and theirs.
Here is what sets you apart from other RUclips creators, your deep musical knowledge. Being able to sing a harmony part and turn it into the melody is amazing! I got major chills with your rendition.
As always, keep up the outstanding work, my friend. God Bless!!!

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 dared
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 whispered in the sound of silence

This is one of my favorite songs and disturbed just doesn’t go deep enough and you went far beyond that i thought you could and you gave me goosebumps all over
The drifferent Colours of your Voice are Breathtaking! You can be so proud of yourself for evry single Videos you've done!
Wow this is awesome. Especially cause you did the most parts in your low voice. It sounded so good. But man even the high parts. Wow. Chills all over my body. I can't wait to get this on spotify. Also I just wanted to thank you that you start putting your work on spotify and other platforms. That way I can listen to them a LOT more. And you can be assured that it will be a lot.
Thank you❤️ my passed Mother would love this if she's still here. We was listening Disturbed version everytime we meet.
This is the best cover of The Sound of Silence ever sung! Your vocal range is amazing and you took my breath away with this one 💕
Completely redefined the phrase "high note". Awesome.
What a unique, delightful and expressive rendition
Eyyy cheers mate! That’s some crazy high praise coming from you! 🙏
Colm, you are the only person I have ever found that can make a cover that is better than the original. No one else comes close to your talent.
I am super impressed and have to say I'm in love with the new mic. I definitely can hear a quality difference in the recordings. I have to say this will be right up there with Disturbed's and Pentatonix's covers of this song. You did amazing!😊
I mean...dang. These vocals are * chef's kiss *
I am currently recovering from kidney stones hoping to pass them soon and i have been listening to your songs on repeat! Thanks for saving me from boredom
I wish you success and a speedy recovery. Have your doctors heard of extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy? Well, the alternative is to play Colm's song up against the area of the calculi. "Strain your urine." It's weird to have so many people reminding you to sieve your piss!
@@zippyman818 thank you so much mate! I hope you have a good sunday
Godspeed to you mate
@@dotsolution2357 thank you mate!
Happy to help, mate! Wishing you a swift recovery! God bless
Gods above and below , the accent amplifies the emotions in this so much.
Oh my...incredible.
You have officially taken the spot of my favourite song.
Previous was the same song by Disturbed. Which is still amazing but this version with your incredibly deep notes is perfection.
Really breathtaking. Thank you for sharing your vocal and instrumental talents with us.
absolutely breath taking, perfect tea and rain chill music, love it ;)
We had a huge downpour today during the premiere actually! It was lit! Cheers for always being so gracious, mate!
@@ColmRMcGuinness anytime! always look forward to the new releases, cheers!
You have the most brilliant voice i have heard in my whole lifetime.
Talented beyond words.
I thought I heard my favourite version of this song before,that was until I heard your voice.
Your voice is the voice of angels.
Awesome!!
Man you’re blessed with an amazing voice keep it up!🔥
Tingles, Tingles, Tingles. What a Song, what a Voice. Thank you for this amazing Moment
I devoutly hope that someone brings your version to Paul Simon's attention! I think that he would approve.
I just discovered your channel and I have to say. You are definitely blessed by the God's your beautiful voice pulled me out of a deep hole. Thank you and thank the God's for me finding you at suck a critical time in my life.
2:56 I love your voice when it gets higher!!!!
Your vocal control is beyond this world. My heart is pounding so hard it hurts my ribs.
THANK YOOOOOOU!!!
I know I'm not the only, nor the first, to suggest this one, but two weeks ago I dropped it in the comments on another video with a SONG SUGGESTION tag. :-) So awesome to hear you sing this with your AMAZING VOICE!!!
I like the altered composition of this. It's the same song, but sung as if a Sea Shanty Singin' Nort'man had sung it.
I'd love to see a collaboration between some of the deepest voiced singers on RUclips. You Mr. McGuinness, Tim Faust, Geoff Castellucci, and I KNOW there are several other folks who have such beautifully deep gifted voices that I can't readily remember off the top of my head.
Of course, I have trouble remembering what I had for breakfast some days. :-/ Either way would REALLY like to see such a collaboration! :-)
Dear lord your range on this song…. So far this is my favorite example of such a range. Insane
I had hoped you would make a cover of this one! This is absolutely brilliant! Well job man
I've listened to this too many times and it gets better every time. Absolutely amazing.
I was very excited for this cover!
My god.
This is pure skill that even gods are jealous of.
I tip my hat to you good sir
I love how your accent bleeds into your vocals, it makes it feel like a folk metal song, which makes me very happy
This is now my favorite rendition of The Sound of Silence. If not my favorite song in general. Thank you for sharing your beautiful talent with people.
Oh wow u gave me chills
Your rendition of one of my lifetime favorites has been masterful, emotional and powerful. Thank you from the bottom of this old ladies heart. Thank you for the opportunity to share in your passion and massive talent!🇨🇦
