Disturbed is actually a Heavy Metal band. But no one can sing it like David does. This is the best version ever. That's why it has over 3 BILLION views. Amazing
The first time I listened to this song.. I was speechless.. Had tears in my eyes. He is absolutely phenominal!
I grew up in the era of Simon and Garfunkel and loved all their songs, including this one. BUT, I never really listened to the words until this version, it implels you to not just hear the song but to listen to the lyrics.
Powerful, challenging, and full of rage. Mr Draiman seems to look right into your soul. A masterpiece.
I agree - haunting song
S&G's version is a sorrowful warning. This is the rage that the warning wasn't heard. David is a trained cantor, and it gives his voice that incredible power.
Great reaction! You hit the nail on the head. The original was a warning. This version, the warning was not heeded. Others from Disturbed you need to check out, is "The Light" and "A Reason To Fight". Powerful and meaningful pieces!
David Draiman...One of the the most powerful and beautiful male voices out there imho. He has incredible range and control. He even puts vibrato on his vocal fry which is amazing!. Loved your reaction Chris.
Thank you!!
Best cover of ANY song EVER!
Disturbed is a heave metallband
Disturbed is a heavy metal band, but they're not afraid to step out of their comfort zone and try new things. David Draiman trained as a cantor in his younger years, his grandfather was a famous cantor in Israel. But he decided on another path. He writes some of the songs, and most of the songs have deep meanings that speak to your heart and mind. I'm a 70 y.o. granny, and I totally am a huge fan. Hard to tell you what songs to listen to, so many fabulous ones. Just grab an album and listen, you won't be disappointed.
Disturbed is a metal band, my son introduced me, I admit to loving this version better than the original, S&G was a warning, this is pure rage, the lack of communication, the end of polite society, the tragedy of losing the beauty and wonder of life.
David Draiman, and Disturbed are amazing. Their songs are all powerful, The Light, Don't Tell Me, Stricken, Into the Fire... There are so many. The Lyrics are always amazing... His voice is incredible, he is a trained Cantor and has an incredible range. They are definitely worth going down a rabbit hole for...
Disturbed are awesome. Saw them live last year and when David Draiman started singing this, many people cried. I did too. His voice is beautiful. All their songs are 🔥🔥🔥.
Good reaction
Thank You!
You got it totally from 'Silence like a cancer grows'. Excellent reaction. I am also of an age when I remember S&G's original coming out (my teenage years were the 1960s), and Disturb's version is probably the greatest cover of ANY song. Well done again for a great reaction!
Thank you!!
Love your reaction! The light , needs to be your next one. Luv from Australia ❤️🎼❤️🎼❤️
Great reaction. I love this cover of the song. Best ever. 😊❤
Thank you!!
While I have watched literally hundreds of reactions to this song, by people with every degree of music education and/or interest, I must say YOU hit the nail on the head here. Your comparison of S&G's "pleading" delivery versus the "admonition" that this version emotes is spot on. I have literally ached for the proper verbiage to make that point in so many of my comments. While my attempts were adequate and appropriate, your choice of vocabulary said exactly what my soul had wanted to say all these YEARS since this piece was released.
David Draiman is a trained voice with a history as a Jewish cantor. His instrument has as much skill and variety as any hailed operatic voice out there. Disturbed is actually known as a metal band, but they have many softer songs that highlight David's emotive acumen in a similar, though not quite as epic, style as this one. Most recently, they have released a ballad featuring the historical vocal prowess of Ann Wilson of Heart. While their popularity has its base from hard hitting metal songs that have become classics in their own right, Disturbed has surely shown their skill through the diversity apparent in their singles catalog alone. Despite their name, they are able to speak to positive emotion through their songs, too. One of my favorites of their originals delivers the power felt by a performer as he stands on stage and witnesses the support of "10,000 Fists in the Air". That is a feeling I have imagined on many occasions as one of those fists.
Do yourself an open minded favor and check out some of their originals. Maybe read their lyrics to see where all they are coming from. There is no shortage of talent delivered by Dramain and his band brothers who are DISTURBED.
Thank you for this!!
You need to watch the version he did on Conan... it will blow you away. Paul Simon sent Draiman an email, and said to him, that this song is his now.
Hold on to memory and the Light are both excellent
The original song was released in 1964.
60 years ago.
This is a great version.
The original song was a warning. This song is the warning not heeded.
Just one word: GOOSEBUMBS
He is a Cantor, vocally trained 😊
I agree with you-he’s getting the point across-to me like God saying wake up or the world will be destroyed!!!!!!!!!!!
you got it in one this is the how dare you version
Simon & Garfunkel's original was a warning. Disturbed's version, some 60 yrs later, is a wakeup call.
Exactly. I’m old enough to remember when the original song came out. My cousins were a bit older so I got introduced to a lot of music I otherwise would have missed.
Wonderful reaction, hugs from Sweden
Thank you! Love Sweeden!
Check out "A Reason to Fight" , "Hold on to Memories", "The Light" and their latest with Ann Wilson, "Don't Tell Me"
It has been observed that the S&G classic was a warning, and Disturbed's (50-years later) version is anger that the warning was not heeded. "The Light" would be a good next step for you in the Disturbed rabbit hole.
His expressions have a lot to do with his airflow, tone, rasp, etc....butvyeah, it's very fitting
this is also available live on Conan Show he had the flu when preforming it
Good reaction and good analysis! Congratulations!
Thank you so much 😀
David is trained in opera and classical music. Definitely check out The Light and Land Of Confusion.
Simon and Garfunkel sang the words with concern; Disturb sings it with rage.
hello from over the pond (Scotland) if i had 1 recommendation it would be the live version of this song live on Conan. David (singer) was ill cold or flu I'm not 100% sure or an original song from them "the light"
I will definitely look for it
That was an excellent performance on Conan!
Thak you for your reaction. I so loved all your comments. Thank you
You, Sir, understood the assignment. You should definitely react to some of their original stuff.
Which ones?
@@courageousMedia Most people start with Down With the Sickness, but I think Stricken is a better one to begin with personally. They have some other brilliant covers too - Land of Confusion is a good one.
Please check out a reason to fight, it’s saved many many lives
OOOWAAAA AAAAA , (down with the sickness) but try "the light" from him too
he's cantor trained but known for metal
I'm not a huge metal fan I like to HEAR the words, disturbed is metal but can hear words and the ones I love are ones where they do emotional punch to gut, "the light" is what I would call toned metal but watch with video as the videos work with lyrics fab too, but down with sickness is apparently one "most" know of disturbed , I somehow went from this cover to rest , purely as this cover was "holy "f@ckballs :O " to me like I pretty much cry every time I hear it , i actually never heard original so i did go listen and was like errrr lyrics, music, voices just don't work together, this one, oh you get the meaning ! but I have a random taste in music and many of my favs are obscure purely as the meaning resonated,
Very different from the normal Disturbed heavy metal, but so impactful and epic. Hold on to Memories and The Light have equally amazing messages and a more gentle approach than some of their work. Also the cover of Genesis Land Of Confusion is amazing
Enjoyed the reaction, Disturbed is a hard rock band, mostly heavy songs, they do have a few softer songs, their current release is a collaboration with Ann Wilson of Heart and it's outstanding, it's called Don't Tell me, their cover of Stings If I ever lose my faith in you, is excellent as well, those are a couple go check out.
Thank you - I will definitely look at those
Hold on to Memories...my go to song
Listen to disturbed " get down with the sickness"
Man, you really love YOUR voice.
hmmm...
Mr Draiman was trained as a Jewish Cantor in his Synagogue. He said he always sang. Even on the School Buss. His voice is a gift..
I didn't see anyone let you off the hook on the chin rings - if you see David in interviews, there are no piercings - I am pretty sure they are just magnetic.
This interpretation of the song is an admonition, which is relevant, I think, to something else you said...
Maybe god's plan is for us to make this world a place worthy of god to share it with us.
Should we choose to take it upon ourselves to be stewards of this world, and to make it a place worthy for god to share with us...
Well, if there isn't actually a god, then we just did that for ourselves - not the worst possible outcome, really.
Love the analysis and commentary, but way too many interruptions to the point where you lost the entire progression of the song. Interruption to comment on his piercings? Really?? While I understand breaks because of copyright, yours were incessant and unnecessary. Maybe next time.
You should check out the Vengful One by Disburd. It shows you about the Media, just saying. 🤷♂️
The person who had the second posting was spot on. It was like a dog or cat was pulling your wang beater to the pause button and all you kept talking about was his voice. What did his voice sound like? Can you go back and sing it to your listeners since you seem to know all about it.
Believe it or not, the live version on Conan is even better. David Draiman is one of a select few that can sound as good, if not better, live. IMO, he and Phil Collins are the best live...
Love the reaction
Perfect review
Thanks!
Pentatonix do an amazing version of this song just stunning.
I watched many people watch this video for years I’m 66 n I remember the original n disturb did it fabulously n u hit the nail on the head explaining it great job
Let’s hear/see the video the comment
Do the acapella version by pentatonix. It gives us hope.
want to say after the song has finished then your opinion can be shared xx
New subscriber - great reaction. I think you would like Hurt by Johnny Cash - another great cover
Thank you!!
Down with the sickness
🍻
❤😊
Do DISTURBED'S THE LIGHT, PRAYER, STRICKEN, STUPIFY, VENGEFUL ONE, LAND OF CONFUSION,
they are nu metal and u gotta get don ith the sickness thier biggest hit besides this
But make sure to listen to the whole song, not the radio version where the whole explanation is cut off. Maddening.
These lyrics---particularly against the backdrop of the arrangement and the vocal delivery---are the words of lament and anger of an Old Testament prophet, admonishing his people that they have spurned relatedness to God and to each other, instead giving their devotion to their own 20th/21st Century neon god. This is an Old Testament message set to 21st Century music.
Jesus, hush
You need #Pause T-Shirt!
LOL
You need some headphones Champ. 😎🎧
trying to get there - need to earn some more to invest in more equipment
Shut up! Lets listen
st0p interrupting make your comment like most people do after
Stop the interrupting…
lost interest after about the tenth interruption.....
sorry about that
You pause to much
sorry about that
Ummm no one if you are going to share your “ critique” ect likes you breaking in on the whole version whatever Disrespect!! For one,… listen first and then speak Really,.., if you want likes and followers….. seriously my “critique” and opinion. Good luck
Thank you
You stopped too many times and talked so much YOU missed the whole experience!!
sorry
Did you ever consider that by stopping the song every few seconds, that you ruined OUR experience?
If you chose for this to be your first experience with the song then that was silly, otherwise, you'll be fine
It's a REACTION video ... HIS reaction is his own first time reaction.
Each reactor has their own style and approach, so just chill.
Did you ever consider if you want to listen to the song un interrupted, you can listen to it and not a reaction?
This is his reaction to the video, not yours. If he wants to pause the video and give his opinion at that particular moment then he can do that. Anyway... He did rewind and play the section from the start again, so... 🤷♀️
I'm not sure how many reactions this guy has done but it often takes reactors a while to figure out the cadence of this without get copyright strikes. Another words "Lighten up Francis!"
