Ain't this guy like the calmest and most kind hearted bruh in the world?!?!?

[@BirdmansPlace]

Who's that? David or me? lol

[@TheLoneWolf-wu8lp]

@@BirdmansPlace You for sure!

[@BirdmansPlace]

@@TheLoneWolf-wu8lp lol...well thank you, my friend. I appreciate that a lot. I try to be. My motto is "Be Kind...for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle." I try to live my life like that. And yeah...I do usually stay pretty calm. Takes a lot to anger me..lol. But if someone messes with my family...that's my line. They'll see a new side of me.

[@robertasirgutz8800]

Love him!

[@ruthiewohlforth5464]

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 and back on a dime. He has a timbre in his voice that I've never heard before.....just hauntingly beautiful tonal properties to it! An awesome talent and obvious training to deliver what he does!! Can sing like an angel or the devil ! Loved your reaction and your take on David's performance. Good job Birdman! Try "Deceiver", "The Night", "Indestructible", "Violence Fetish" and "The Light" by Disturbed too.

[@rondag.3761]

I always enjoyed Simon & Garfunkel's rendition but the first time I heard Disturbs rendition, I LOVED IT! It actually brings tears to my eyes!

[@angelamaccord3061]

You don't hear this song...you feel it with every fiber of your being.

[@nurseshrek]

I have heard somewhere that the original was a gentle warning....this version is the anger that the warning was ignored.

[@berlyn3014]

And the Pentatonix version is hopeful there is still time to change is a common sentiment.

[@jeremywilliams1835]

I saw DISTURBED in October of 2019 here in st.louis at chafitz arena. Home of st.louis billiken's. I can vouch that it is his voice. Because some people think it's not all him. And the live version on Conan O'Brien show also proves it's his voice. If you get the chance to see them live, I highly suggest it.

[@claudiahillman606]

David has a natural ability to draw us in, to feel what he feels and to see what he sees! We can't help but pay attention and to listen.

[@NocturnalIntellect]

Great reaction. You did your homework prior to your video; and after seeing hundreds of reactions, it was cool to see one with the actual meaning explained in concession with the verses. Bravo. Liking and subscribing. ✌️🇺🇸

[@BirdmansPlace]

Thank you, my friend. I really appreciate the kind words. I felt I needed to do this song justice, as it's absolutely amazing, so yes...I did my research. Thank you for the subscribe and the support. Much love to ya.

[@NocturnalIntellect]

My pleasure. Enjoying your work.

[@marysue8815]

I am so glad you know Simon and Garfunkel's original from 1964. I loved your reactions to this cover, I am a child of the 60's and S&G came out when I was in high school. this cover by Disturbed along with this video is the BEST it touches your soul and really gets S&G message to the core of my being goosebumps and chills and tears, for many others too. Neon God in the 60's television/movies... advances in technology... cell phones.... computers.... still TV

[@hilarypotter3334]

Man, I love how much you get out of these songs. I’ve been trying to really understand this song since this version came out and you just made it make sense. I completely agree with you on 2 points. I really, really wish people knew how to actually listen and I also think that the Simon and Garfunkel version was way too lighthearted. This version is honestly one of my favorite songs to blare when I’m anger. David’s tone, the percussion and even some of the instrumentation can be really cathartic. Definitely going back to find some of your other disturbed reactions. For some reason I thought you’d already done this one. Glad I was wrong. Thanks for the amazing reaction as always brother. Much love.

[@BirdmansPlace]

Thank you so much as always for the kind words, and as always for the support you continue to give me. It means a lot. I appreciate it. :) Much love to you as well. :)

[@vimes3303]

Nice reaction. There are many covers of this song, beautiful and technically perfect but in my view Disturbed 'is the best. The mix between Simon & Garfunkel's lyric, David's voice and the band's interpretation made something extraordinary and touching. Someone thinks this version is sad. Instead I feel it as a profound message and I find very hopeful the last scene in which the ship with the musicians reaches people without a voice. Music has always been a powerful means of communication.

[@loraharvey6740]

We are all guilty of this at some point. We have made a world too busy to take time and sit down and have a conversation with our family, neighbors, etc. Most people don't even know their neighbors names these days. I miss the days of my childhood, the days of front porch sitting conversations.

[@BirdmansPlace]

We all do, man...I'm in the same boat.

[@aztukette]

You must watch the one at Conan show

[@joshuajones982]

You need to check out his live concert on CONAN O’BRIAN

[@ketomom4637]

It’s October 2021 and this song is truer today than when it was written!

[@BirdmansPlace]

Amen.

[@MusclesandMusic]

I agree with you completely my friend! As a millennial, it frustrates me so much that we aren't listening to or hearing each other. Everyone's told they can have an opinion but if it goes against someone else's it's considered wrong so those people are silenced and the sound of silence drones on. I'd absolutely love to see Dave Draiman and Geoff Castellucci collab

[@dionicioadame4801]

Such a beautiful song with such a powerful meaning,… but watching it while Birdman Reacts to it. Priceless. Phenomenal job My Friend. Keep them coming bud and stay safe.

[@lukemilam918]

I totally agree. I heard the original version my whole life and never cared for it. Kinda laughed at Disturbed covering it. Then I heard it and saw the song totally different. Simon and Garfunkel was way too up beat for what they were saying.

[@elenadinu7576]

I've grown up with Simon & Garfunkel's original, but only really listened to the lyrics when I've first heard the Disturbed's version. Great lyrics plus great (and right) voice equals masterpiece (IMO). Great and true reaction, loved it! 💗

[@janfrye3804]

I really enjoyed your reaction to this video. You are spot on. I was 10 years old when this was released

[@BirdmansPlace]

[@candyhartzog8825]

The people on one side had the instruments, the other side had the songs they wrote. Waiting to be sung.

[@leapatterson2014]

I'm with you on the S&G version. It sounded like a kid's song. Once Paul Simon heard David's live version on Conan he said the song was now theirs.

[@BirdmansPlace]

I agree 100%. Disturbed just totally changed it. In a good way.

[@TrayXCooper]

Please Please please listen to Falling In Reverse Start off with the songs Popular Monster Then do I'm Not A Vampire from a decade ago then watch their Revamped version of the song. They recreated the song to a modern sound and its incredible You need to see the music videos for these. And also Ronnie Radke the singer watches youtubers reacting to his music on twitch so you might get a shoutout from the singer. Falling In Reverse is one of the best bands right now and Ronnie has the best vocal abilities of any singer today. Its epic

[@Dollywood623]

Yes and I cried like a baby when I first saw video. There I admit it.

[@Dollywood623]

It's the one on one that is Lost! With the Cell phone and Texting, No one talks anymore. They just send Memes and don't get me started on the Internet. Paul Simon was way before his time and maybe saw this coming in 1964, And In 1964 it was a Warning, Davids's Version is Yell it out that People have not Heeded the WARNING!!!!

[@junearnold492]

DISTURBED has alot of great songs. Iam 63 years old. I thought the original version was BORING. I grew up in DETROIT and i was hearing music very early age. Simon and Garfunkel sang the song kind of folky. DAVID DRAIMAN SINGS IT WITH SO MUCH MORE FEELING AND MORE POWERFULLY THAN THE ORIGINAL VERSION. I Have been listening to this band for a little over 3 and a half years now. And every month i hear something new that i like. Most people think that if your old than you can't like newer groups. Well i am anold hippie and I love all kinds of music. I am willing to at least try and see if i like it. People need to keep an open mind. You never know what you might be missing out on.

You should react to Pentatonix cover of this song, or any Pentatonix song really. You'll probably become a pentaholic, as we fans of that group affectionately call ourselves

[@mikeskinner4574]

Awesome reaction to a great band... I stumbled upon a band called Liliac, they did a Joan Jett cover... I Hate muse for loving you... i Think you would enjoy it

[@Wahots79]

I grew up hearing the original by S&G. It was...eh. ok? But like you, I didn't really like it. In my opinion, the song had such powerful words that were presented to us with soft, passive voices. I felt they did the song a disservice (yes, I know Simon wrote it...) they weren't the right voices for this song. NO ONE listened to the song, they heard it but didn't listen, because they lacked the power this song needed to get the point across. This song was made for David. His voice, his anger, his passion is what the song had been lacking for ... half a century. People are finally listening. So many reactions to this song and many (not all, but many) are actually pondering the meaning which is what is needed.

[@BirdmansPlace]

What you just said in this comment is EXACTLY my feelings on the subject. Voices were way too passive. What they were saying was factual back then...and now it's too late...Disturbed is the version we needed back then.

[@diomarisadame4683]

REaction follows action It seems like you were not listening You talked over this beautiful song, cutting it mid flow I'm all the wrong places just because you thought you were more important than the message itself. Worst most irritating reaction video I have seen and I have watched many

[@BirdmansPlace]

If you watched what I said you would have heard that I had heard the song, and was breaking things down. I know every line and note of this song. And if you would like to hear the song itself, feel free. I do what's called a reaction. Meaning when you have a reaction, you stop it and speak about it. That's a true reaction. If you don't like them, then don't watch. God Bless.
