      I love this version. I heard it when it first came out. It seems to put so much empathany onto the words. The way he takes it up to a level then drops it right down. Brilliant.

    I've been listening to this song for about 30 years, Disturbed 's version has blown me away. David' s vocals are so emotive it brings a tear to my eye. Then you hear the absolute professionalism of the band arrangements are perfect musical skill perfect. Can't seem to play it enough.

    In 1964 I was 8 years old and the original S & G song was good. This rendition is another level. The tone and resonance is so touching. It grabs your heart strings and plays with them throughout the song. For a rock group this is the best cover by far. I will definitely buy their album.

      Your comment. YOU moved me to tears. And I was still reeling from just having watched that incredible music clip, feeling the chills up and down my body. Your husband was one of those first responders. Wow.
      I'm a child of the sixties, and that song resonated first time around. It stayed with me all these years. Simon and Garfunkel sang it with exquisite poignancy but the power was there.
      But this guy, against the backdrop of real footage, those first responders doing what they do, no fanfare or fuss, they were there and finding people... rescuing people... Then this clip now, this guy David Draiman - the POWER of that melody and the words... Grim REAL context...
      People can change the world.

    Such a good song. Disturbed made it a great song. He has such a powerful voice. I can listen to it over and over. If this song gives you goosebumps you should hear the acoustic version all I can say is WOW what a voice!

    Lyrics:
    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 dare
    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
    And 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

    If truth be told, the only way this song could be made manifest was to be sung with anger. Those are not pretty words. Listen, they are outrage. Draiman's voice is utterly compelling, haunting, symphonic, replete with humanity. (Only the best sound system could do it justice really.) I am mesmerized by Draiman's voice. It is magnetic. irresistibly beautiful.

Id waited 40 years to hear Vasc sing Amazing Grace the way i knew it could be sung, but it seems i was waiting as long for Disturbed's rendition of The Sound of Silence and didn't know it! Brilliant musicians and singers, both.
