You got a lot of thing right but unfortunately, you missed the major part at the beginning.
The song was released on 9/11 and now watch the video again!
Do you see the 2 towers burning as he starts to sing, the man in the room as the fire starts with an explosion, the people running up and down the stairways, the guy coming out of the dust, ...?

I love how Elizabeth's eyes light up and she just delights in it when she hears something cool that she likes.

I read a comment on another video that she makes facial expressions like A Disney princess... and she does!

[@noskillzdad5504]

she has kept that " child's amusement" that most of us lose when we get older. fantastic!

[@JimONeil]

I completely agree. It reminds me of watching a chef taste something. You can just see that she's gathering all the information about the seasoning, sorting out what ingredients were used and how it was all cooked.

[@rofferdal]

Her sincere love of music is what draws me back to her reaction videos.

[@GizmoElectric]

Since we are doing Disturbed covers and Elizabeth is becoming more and more of a metalhead, I hope we eventually will see a reaction to Disturbed - Land of Confusion. Not entirely sure how I started down this rabbit hole of watching music reaction videos, but the reactions on this channel are one of, if not the best.

[@michaellorettahaines1898]

I second that Genesis cover suggestion!!

"Not entirely sure how I started down this rabbit hole of watching music reaction videos"

[@fatneck2008]

Another vote for Disturbed - Land of Confusion!!!

[@stacyrosa6672]

Not being a huge fan of heavy metal, I never realized how incredibly talented these musicians are, until they released their cover of Sound of Silence. When I hear him now, even in the heaviest of metal style, I can say with confidence that David has the most magically versatile voice I have ever experienced.

[@FaithFamilyandFacialHair]

I love how later in his career he has embraced the storytelling with his voice. I literally feel each song on his later albums. When I was younger, his angst and energy had me going, but his growth is amazing.

Gorramit, I knew I liked her for a reason! 🤣

[@Axe_Slinger]

In his younger years, Draiman was classically trained as a cantor, who is someone that sings liturgical music and leads prayer in a synagogue. ... So taking his classical vocal training and mixing it with his aggressive rock style of singing, Draiman's voice truly is one of a kind.

[@Kavriel]

Definitely is one of a kind. He has such heaviness and texture in his voice. His GERD or something like it likely also influenced the development of his peculiar voice.

[@Axe_Slinger]

@Adolph Hitler Good lord what are you doing here?

[@brucedickinson12]

wow never heard he was a classically trained cantor b4

[@Schwetttyballz]

He was also constantly in trouble as a child and music allowed him to express and “release” all his pent up anger and frustration.

[@JohnRodriguesPhotographer]

He truly is The Jazz Singer! If you don't know what I'm referring to look it up oh, you'll find it kind of an interesting parallel to David Draiman. He is actually qualified to remake the movie.

[@benjaminrider6351]

Disturbed's cover of "Land of Confusion" is also really good. It also does the same thing as this one does, updating and putting a new spin on the original. For Disturbed original songs, I would recommend "Stricken," "The Light", or "Inside the Fire."

[@OpDDay2001]

Perfect Insanity and Ten Thousand Fists should also be up there.

[@brianleazenby124]

Another vote for The Light

[@nunyabusiness9433]

That transition from Sting-like smoothness into deep, growling lyrics is SO Disturbed in a nutshell. They're essentially conditioning an audience to favorably juxtapose their normal musical style with these covers and I freaking love it. Her reaction to the first smashing hard transition is great.

[@nunyabusiness9433]

And I didn't care for this cover after Sound of Silence. Sting was pretty sacrosanct to me before. But her commentary made me reconsider, and I have a new appreciation for it.

[@Tex_Fishing]

I’m saddened and at the same time happy that people are now seeing what Disturbed/David can do to show a songs meaning. It’s brilliant.

[@insatiablefondu4587]

I would personally say that "hold on to memories" is one of, if not the most impacted and striking songs that Disturbed has ever performed and she needs to review it.

[@masterv2041]

The video for that song made me break down the first time I heard it.

[@SpiralOut29]

That song is so meaningful. It was one of the songs I kept on listening to after losing a loved one years ago. I shared it with certain family members and it made them all cry but they loved it.

[@-KFirefly]

I agree.

[@scotty2307]

Bring your tissues!

[@thegamesage13]

That and "A Reason to Fight". Both helped me through such a hard batch of years. Both those sons she has got to hear eventually!

Two very powerful songs!

[@CRIMSON-FLAME1]

David is a vocal master. I feel like he is sending constant messages during current times.

[@JohnRodriguesPhotographer]

David Draiman is a remarkable human being regardless of his incredible talents. He has been through a lot and is still standing tall.

[@Kuth70]

"A reason to fight - Live video". Its extremely powerful. Very tough to watch for sure, but the message is amazing.

Disturbed, “The Light” - is a proper rock song and a masterpiece of composition. But the music video is the cherry on top! Holding my breath to watch you break it down.

The Light is one of my favorite songs by them.

[@jasonbodden8816]

Yes, she should DEFINITELY react to "The Light" by them!!!

[@barefootalien]

... you are _the_ most amazing reactor... You genuinely add to the songs you react to. Not just in a "vicariously experiencing it for the first time again" way that most reactors do. Not even in the education about musical decisions and techniques that many vocal coach reactors do. You add to the experience of the music itself in a way that's difficult to describe. You add to the _emotion_ of it.
I've cried to this song before... but I didn't expect to cry to it today, to a reaction.
Thank you.

[@woofspider330]

not to mention she wears a lot of emotion on her sleeve, and it's wonderful to see on her face the same things we felt when we heard these songs.

[@5h4ck]

Sting has specifically said that he didn't define what 'You' referred to, because it's for the listener to decide what it is that they hold their faith in, be it themselves or something else. He said it's easy to list the things that someone loses faith in, but whatever it is that keeps them going and gives them hope, is what he's talking about. You absolutely nailed it in your observation/interpretation.

[@angielewis11872]

One of their own songs I love is The Light if you really listen to the lyrics and watch the visuals properly together, touches me deeply every single time.

[@y2chaos]

One of my favourite songs of modern Disturbed. Can relate to it in so many ways, as I'm sure others can.

[@wikingagresor]

I also recommend 'The Night' to balance things out ;)

[@chaoticknight9520]

That as well as save our last goodbye from that album, and then a reason to fight and already gone from evolution are all heavy hitters

[@deb_is_here1425]

The Light is mine too!!!

[@micah8755]

Hadn't heard that one yet, so I went and listened to it. Great suggestion!

[@TheePIB]

Disturbed has done several other covers (since Elizabeth mentioned it), including covering "Shout" by Tears for Fears (which is BY FAR my favorite cover they've done-David's vocals and their approach to the song is insanely more powerful IMO), "Land of Confusion" by Genesis, "Midlife Crisis" by Faith No More, and "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" by U2. "Shout 2000" (Disturbed's title) from _The Sickness_ would definitely be my recommendation for another Disturbed cover.

[@masternovahlavoie998]

Your genuine emotion brings literal tears to my eyes. Music is soooo multidimensional, and it's such a blessing to be able to share its depth through the abstract of "feeling".
❤️

[@TheCharismaticVoice]

Thank you, I am humbled!

[@ruthiewohlforth5464]

More of Disturbed please Elizabeth! David Draiman...a voice to die for! A powerful yet soulful voice that can go from warm baritone to angelic tenor, from clear as a crystal to rasp/distortion/vocal fry and back on a dime, which is incredibly difficult to do and he makes it look so damn easy! He has a timbre in his voice that I've never heard before.....just hauntingly beautiful and pure tonal properties to it! An awesome talent. Can sing like an angel or the devil ! Loved your reaction and your take on David's performance Elizabeth!! Try "Deceiver", "The Night", "Indestructible", "The Light", and "Enough" by Disturbed too. They are a "bit" heavier......lol.....

[@jasonmurray1812]

Your reactions are so educational and entertaining to watch. The way you share your knowledge of music and vocals sparks interest, curiosity, and a desire for more. Most people who possess your level of musical acuity come across as arrogant. You don't and it's appreciated.

[@duudsuufd]

[@burningtheworld]

I love how Disturbed has changed over the years. They are my favorite band. The music they put out now is so uplifting and emotional. It is meant to get a response and make people feel something. Most music doesn't have anything to say these days, but listening Disturbed songs people will just find themselves crying and wondering how that happened.

[@briancollis1809]

I think a tea-time interview with David would be freaking amazing

[@shadowmane20]

Yes. An interview with David would be icing on the cake.

[@patrickburke5958]

Disturbed’s ( A reason to fight ) is a very powerful message for this time. And their cover of Land of Confusion is also a great listen.

[@frostyupscope]

As much as I love to listen to music, I never put much thought into what goes into making a song great. I have always thought that making music was just a bunch of people coming together and just punching out the chords and words. Your explanation of all of the nuances in the singing really breaks down how good production contributes to the overall effect of the song. I really enjoy how you break down the music.

[@aamoth]

If you love the breakdown, you should check out Rick Beato and his series "What makes this song great" he usually break a track down by each instrument by what intersting thing is going on.

[@brunocarbone1272]

Elizabeth, what you do is a MASTERCLASS in music and sensibility. You are a true gem to watch.

[@fristi61]

Man, this video was an eye-opener for me about how great of a fit this song is for them. Many of their own songs lyrically deal with the same kind of self-trust, self-reliance, self-faith things. I didn't realize before how well this song meshes with the message they put in their own songs.

[@crashcanuck]

So many of their songs are about being resilient in some way, it's part of why I like them so much.

[@AnneNihilate]

@@crashcanuck ditto. Ten Thousand Fists came out when I was in high school and they always really helped me through tough times but that album came out at a time when I really, really needed the extra kick in the butt.

My introduction to Simon & Garfunkel was through my mother. When I ran Disturbed's cover of The Sounds of Silence by her years later, she thought it was just about the best thing ever. I had no idea that they'd done this particular cover last year, but she's also familiar with Sting so she'll get an earful of this as well. Many thanks for analyzing this and giving me the heads-up.

[@madisonkupsky685]

I’d love to see your reaction of Disturbed’s Inside the Fire. It is one of my favorite pieces by this incredible group. Disturbed is my all time favorite band to listen to, and at the moment they’re the only ones I’m listening to because I just can’t get enough. And whenever I am having a bad day I know I can just hit shuffle on their songs and no matter what comes up I’ll always feel better after a couple songs.

I have had a very special connection with Breathe and it's my favourite Disturbed song. The way the bass line connects with the chours caught me from the first time I heard it. Also, the vocals have helped me let go of my anger and disappointment in some people. It's just a very important song for me. However, I have yet to talk to anyone who feels the same way about this particular song.

[@jonnybillett5020]

There's something special that happens in this video and others like it. Disturbed's work is mostly angry, depressed, and on the painful side of a lot of personal struggles. It makes the message they're putting out here that much more powerful; when someone who struggles with all that negativity and anguish tells you to keep faith in yourself and you can make it through you feel it on a whole other level than when someone who is always outwardly cheerful and encouraging does.

[@AnneNihilate]

Yes! So much. It feels like they are genuine. They know how you are feeling and have felt it too.

[@andrewhagle5302]

Need to react to their covers of Shout by Tears for Fears, and Land of Confusion by Genesis.

[@jessicacarron8117]

I second these. I love Disturbeds cover songs

[@AndyViant]

Shout is my second favourite cover of theirs. Definitely far above this.
I really miss covers. I know there is licencing reasons for their disappearance, but I really loved that old 70's (and well into 80's in Australia, hell, probably the 90's if we talk about Shivers) standard of one song on an album being a reinterpretation of someone else's song.
It allows you comparison of band's musical talents, and new interpretations of songs we love.
Sometimes a great songwriter is not themselves gifted with the ability to best present that song, and other times the experiences of another person allow reinterpretation of a song in a different way.
For me, the best part of sharing music with others is not just to share the noise, but to share the understanding and emotion that melds together with the noise to create feeling.

One of my all time favorite Disturbed songs is The Night off the Indistructable album. Lots of power and the vocals are amazing.

[@joxerthemighty9148]

disturbed has a wonderful way of creating emotional response and deeper thought to music, there own or covers. he / they are brilliant

[@Pizz0785]

Have you ever listened Chris Cornell? Honestly one of the most soulful voices in rock and roll

[@creos42]

I love his covers of "Nothing Compares 2 U" and "Billie Jean". Such a great voice and lost too soon.

Yes! Elizabeth, please review Chris Cornell as a solo artist or his work in soundgarden!

Elizabeth, I LOVE watching your reactions. The first time I watched this channel was for your Disturbed, Sound of Silence reaction. The one Disturbed song I would really like to see a reaction to is Uninvited Guest but I don't think they have an official video for it, so I guess the runner up would be their Genesis cover of Land of Confusion.

[@yaanaallen2303]

I was introduced to David Draiman and Disturbed in The Sounds of Silence, which is now my all time favorite. SOS came out when I was in high school, but their interpretation brought me to tears. David's voice is so amazing I have been hoping they would do more of this type of song. I have never been a fan of "angry" music, but when it is part of the arc of story telling mixed with these other masterful vocals I love it.

[@idahoelkslayer6299]

There is a young band out of newzeland called Alien Weaponry that sing in Maori you should take a peek at im hooked !

[@Brian_S74]

Yes, Alien Weaponry are amazing

[@MJ-92]

David Draiman was formally trained in the Jewish traditions of being a Cantor. Truly a master of his instrument!

[@sickandtired4926]

Wish I was 40 years younger and could meet someone so vibrant, passionate and engaging as you. I think sitting and having a conversation with someone like you would be have been an amazing experience. Your personality is mesmerizing. I usually scoff and scroll past the myriad of folks who try to do what you do. You are the only one that I watch and enjoy. Alas, I have accepted that I shall exist alone and bereft of such encounters from now on. I wish you much success and may God bless.

[@jakebonnett1675]

Two years ago I heard this song, it's a beautiful song. But not until I watched this video did I really get the meaning of it. It was a somewhat rollercoaster for me, when you said you could apply it to anything, I had a semi existential crisis thinking about what I really have faith in. And then at the end, the reflections, it made me start sobbing. I'm a childhood cancer survivor, and I had forgotten after 20 years that I do have a lot of faith in myself. And I need to hold onto it. Thank you Elizabeth, thank you David.

[@NPK476]

I hope you triple the numbers with this one and hit a few million views.

[@dakotaburns7551]

Beautiful song! Am digging the album Evolution; lots there to reflect on. “Hold on to Memories” is fantastic. (So now go do the best things in life!)

[@peikathryn]

I love that the message wasn't to place your faith in someone else but to hold it within yourself.

[@beegeebad3193]

Amazingly mixed emotions on this date I was promoted at work and was positive for Covid that time. What timing for the song.. what a masterpiece

[@perryaskins8250]

i would love to hear/see your reaction to Disturbed's "The Light". I think it is a great song with a great message. Thank you for this reaction, as always fantastic!!

[@bobroy680]

-Firefly intro. Definitely memorable.

[@ambrosebrower8760]

I’m amazed by how observant you are. You catch key details almost immediately on the very first listen. Very impressed

[@chrispeterson5183]

Please do “hold onto memories” my dad is going to be going through chemo and radiation soon and that song really hit hard when I listened to it. Really enjoy watching you go through these songs and have such joy listening to them.

[@jor-missing14]

Thinking of you Chris. A friend sent me Hold on to memories a few days after my mum died. Music is one of the ways I hold on to her memory - of singing with her and learning to harmonise from her. I hope your dad's fight against cancer is won soon

[@jarlgrimnar9513]

A good one to listen to is "Darkness" although "Prayer", "Believe" and "The Light" are good to.

[@swedeangel64]

YES… Much more Disturbed. 😁

[@rbroach68]

Disturbed "The Sound of Silence" was my gateway drug into #ElizabethZharoff. Since I found this channel, I've learned more about vocal characteristics than I ever knew I needed to know. As a voice actor/narrator The Charismatic Voice has been a fantastic resource!

[@thelonghaul5214]

this is one of my favorite covers ever. when disturbed covers a song, they are masterful.

[@alexmckinney7588]

Elizabeth’s facial expressions are so cute and it’s almost as if she is telling us about what she is thinking about through her face lol
Best vocal analysis channel I have come across on the whole of RUclips (and I have watched many different people) but the way she explains everything is just enough for those who aren’t singers but who are interested in music to understand without getting too technical (or boring!)
Saw Disturbed just before covid hit and definitely an amazing band and David sounds so distinct you can always tell it’s him!
Definitely the live version of ‘Hold on to the memories’ by Disturbed is worth a listen Elizabeth 👍👍
Keep up with the cool video content 👏👍

[@0gravity890]

It's that whole album...you should just go through all of it. It's worth it and it makes me smile and cry all in one song.

[@familyrochette8756]

I’m glad you asked. I didn’t want to flood you with just disturbed requests. I just watched your reaction to matalica’s “One” and you mentioned that you enjoy music videos with a message. “Hold on to Memories” is an original Disturbed song that was so melancholy and uplifting that it definitely brought a tear to my eye.

[@erinerikson8229]

Land of confusion (cover), pain redefined (original), I'm alive (original). I've been listening to Disturbed for years and you've hit the nail on the head. David is very conscious of not only the message but the emotions within the message. Listening to anything Disturbed has put out. You won't regret it.
One of my top 10 bands...
Oohh!!! Hold on to Memories... newish... good stuff, great message!

[@DerangedVoices]

David does an amazing job covering 'Shout', and 'Land Of Confusion' as well. You should check those out. He's got such an amazing voice.

[@coleG112]

Their cover of Land of Confusion, minus the cliche "ah-ah" bits, honestly just feels like if Genesis wrote a 21st Century rock album. It's so spot on and respectful of the original, and doesn't lose the identity of EITHER artist. It's so cool.

[@DerangedVoices]

@@coleG112 couldn't have said it better myself.

[@OpDDay2001]

How the hell have I forgotten about "Shout"? Hard agree.

[@kevinbrown3082]

When I was introduced to Disturbed it was by someone telling me to listen to their covers. Back then, a very long time ago, their covers were sort of what they were known for. Weirdly

[@bdubz5150]

Thank you for the video Elizabeth. I first watched your channel after seeing your first reaction video to Disturbed. I live in Scottsdale and played Disturbed during an entire winter tinkering in my shop fabricating stuff with the shop bay doors open in our unparalleled beautiful winter months here. I found myself listening to some of the same Disturbed songs multiple times throughout days just noticing how good David sung. I have been an avid fan of all your videos on YT ever since. I build musical instruments from raw materials for a living, so the nuances I listen to in music are instrument centric. It drives my wife nuts that I don't know words to any songs I hear. Thanks to your videos I've taken an interest in singer's voices, their inflection, intonation and the small nuances they contribute just like instruments. I have more respect for singers that I've always kinda taken for granted. My grandmother was a performance singer her entire life, as well as her mother and you would think I would have noticed earlier on. Nonetheless, Thank you for uncovering my appreciation of singing. It feels as if a partition has been lifted for me, now I see music in a more complete light without isolating components. Thank you for your highly insightful vids.👍

[@y2chaos]

3 weeks on since my OP... and I hope it's ok to add...
You seem so genuinely interested and attached to this song AND band. You showed the same emotion for the Sound of Silence. Personally, I'm so happy that you found both songs and dissected both songs perfectly. I sense, that you may be excited for what they can do next.
Thank you so much for your commentary for both these tracks :)

[@Playth3record]

Yeas i would Love if she did more reactions to disturbed, like The Light or Land of confusion for example

I really appreciate the points of technical breakdown of the vocals in this video.

[@discomike3886]

And all her videos.

[@xeroeddie]

There's a Disturbed song called "Darkness" from their second album, I believe. It's a very quiet and somber song and he sings beautifully. Maybe he doesn't use his voice to its full potential, but I always found the song to be very beautiful.

[@cjt9834]

[@jimmyggs91]

Agreed, same thing with Epica. Elizabeth only heard Simone Simons either in a duet with Floor Jansen or on that Ayreon song. Also she only listened to Tarja once, on that "Phantom Of The Opera" Nightwish cover.

Hey Elizabeth, im so grateful for u watching into Disturbed yet again and saying that u would revise some more!
I'm listening to Disturbed for more than a decade now and I will always love this band.
I would recommend 3 titels to look into:
Prayer (Incredible vocals, at least to my ear(
Asylum (incredibly haunting if u take the video into account as well)
Inside the Fire (this song is very, very sad based upon the contents its dealing with)
Cheers!
