You Did An Awesome Job.. With this Song.. Great

[@oliviarose5030]

Easily one of my top five favorite reactions of this song, and I’ve sadly watched a good hundred or more. Honest and appreciative of the skill.

[@Lowcountrygolfaddict]

Olivia Rose im glad I’m not the only one that’s watched reaction videos of this song over and over.

[@lumirolivares1346]

I think there is no reaction video to this song unwatched by me :D

[@robwheelut]

I watch every reaction and true some are much better than others, but hey everyone has an opinion

[@AloishiusAbercrombie]

Same & same!

@@AloishiusAbercrombie This one was very natural and emotional. Great stuff.

The lead singer, David Draiman was born in Brooklyn, NY to an Orthodox Jewish family. His Grandfather, who survived the Holocaust, was a famous Temple cantor, as was his father and father before. David was supposed to follow the tradition. Even attending Yeshiva. He obviously went in a different direction and much of his family didn't accept it. Many of Disturbed songs carry deep meanings, suicide; addiction; recovery; It's worth watching an interview or two. David and the rest of the guys are soft spoken, funny guys.

[@teradactyl2359]

David has reconciled with his family. Which I think just completes the whole incredibly successful package.

[@brendalebrell1734]

He also is very active in the fight against suicide cuz he lost a very dear friend when he was a teenager and it affect him very deeply he also went to school to be a lawyer but decided he didn't want to be a one because he didn't feel right about it also his father went to prison for several years for miss handling of investment funds had left the family in financial ruins but they did recover I have great respect for the man

[@TheRepublican777]

I also heard he was going to be a lawyer but he decided not to go down that path because he couldn't see himself defending someone who was guilty

Cuando se toca y araña el alma humana modificandola se está ante una OBRA MAESTRA. SU VOZZZZ TAN INCREIBLEMENTE ÚNICA MARAVILLOSA E INIGUALABLE NACE DE LO MÁS PROFUNDO DE LOS SENTIMIENTOS. DEBERÍA SER ESCUCHADA EN TODO EL MUNDO. ES MUUUY PODEROSA. ❤❤❤❤❤❤(❤❤❤❤Desde Andalucía (España).

[@bobbiechuck691]

Loooove your reaction. I do not call this a cover song. It is an experience and stands on its own merit. Cover or not, Doesnt matter. It is its own power and emotion. If you don't get chills, or emotional or tears then there is something seriously wrong with you. He goes from a voice that rocks you gently like Angel wings fluttering and then growls that is so intense it grabs your soul. We are 77 and 80. Tears and goosebumps each time we listen. David Draiman possesses an impressive vocal range that spans over three octaves, ranging from a low of E2 to a high of C6. Amazing!

[@Viva_Larraza]

Disturbed got a Grammy nomination for this performance. I love it more than the studio recording. It’s incredibly beautiful.

[@f3nixfire]

They should have won! Heck they should win all the rewards the music industry has to offer for this masterpiece

[@dash4800]

@@f3nixfire The music industry is a joke when it comes to awards. They like to award big names or over actual quality. Sometimes those line up, but not often. Thats why people like Beyonce get nominated every year even though nobody could name a song of hers in the last 5 or more years. They just have a select group they pretend is amazing no matter what and they get every award. Its basically just a circle jerk of music industry elites

My interpretation of the song The Sound of Silence. This song is written with two different perspectives or consciousnesses singing it. Those that are waking up and those that have been awake for a very long time. The first, third and fifth verse is sung from the perspective of the unawakened and the second and forth verse are sung from the perspective of the awakened. 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 Hello, darkness, my old friend is about people that have been kept in the dark and they're telling the darkness that they are experiencing something new in their vision. They (the awakened/aware ones) planted the seeds of truth/Light, and they are just starting to become aware. In restless dreams I walked alone Narrow streets of cobblestone 'Neath the halo of a streetlamp 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 There are fewer of the awakened, and they feel as if they are alone under the Light of truth, because they refused to buy into the lies the dark has been trying to feed them. Then one day they saw a crack in the armor of dark, a tear in the matrix, if you will and in that moment they saw a opportunity to break 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 No one dared Disturb the sound of silence And in that moment they saw all of the light workers/star seeds (awakened Ones) telling those that were still asleep the truth/Light, through telepathy those that were sleeping heard and saw the truth/Light in a very subtle way, but yet they couldn't share this Light/truths with anyone for fear of being attacked by those that controlled the sound of silence. They wrote the truth in songs, the truth had to be give covertly as not to disturb the sound of silence (the dark). And when the people became aware of the Light/truth and realized that they had been in darkness the whole time, it really pissed them off. "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 They reached out to those still in slumber, trying to give them Light/truths, but they wouldn't open their minds to new truths, instead remained in the sound 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 sounds of silence." The people were so caught up in working hard to pay for all of the things, the boats, cars, electronics, all of the toys that they covet. They couldn't see or hear the truth, they were too distracted by consumerism. The awakened/prophets have been trying to tell them through their songs and poems, and that whisper of Light/truth awakened the people from their slumber and they became ONE. Did you notice the ship sailing into the Light at the end?

[@mj-jo8es]

It is captivating, through and through ...and with visuals that are worthy of that breath taking vocal performance. Surely, Conan must feel that this performance is one of the feathers in the cap of his show. Paul Simon must have really loved it.

[@robertgreen4050]

Loved your reaction but instead of clapping I sat in stunned silence with tears on my face I lost my son almost 9 years ago he loved Disturbed and never got to hear this awesome rendition of this classic

[@michalperach984]

I agree 100%. The original is so great, I was sceptic when this version came out. But this version always gives me chills. Every time. Just fabulous. "The words of the profets are written on the subway walls"

"Like silent raindrops fell" is the part that gets me

David Draiman has one of the best yet powerful voices I have ever heard. I love everything about this version of the song from his beautiful vocals to the orchestra and arrangement.

[@sydneywellington_cazadora]

if only you would pause when he finished building a musical phrase! not so difficult to wait for a few verses. -Draiman covers roughly two-and-a-half octaves from bottom to top. His vocals are so distinctive. -Disturbed had been nominated for a GRAMMY for Best Rock Performance for their rendition of "The Sound of Silence" while appearing on Conan. -David Draiman: "The fact that I was sick as a dog (laughs). I remember I was definitely fighting something off, but it was a cool experience. It was cool performing with an actual orchestra. It was really vibing and the mood helped, I think, enhance the delivery. The stars just aligned that night and everything went right." - How Paul Simon Felt To Have Disturbed Transform Classic Song to Heavy Metal kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKWxl6qlgKljjqM -

[@kdrinnin1]

Epic, indeed!

[@f3nixfire]

Great video! I agree 100%. David Draiman is a gift to humanity. His voice is just epic and this song show cases how much of a prodigy he is. Disturbed, in general, is so talented. Their a 4 person group. The drummer was on the thunderous drums, one member was on the keyboard and the other was playing the acoustic guitar. The rest of them were an independent orchestra, who also did a fantastic job. In my humble opinion, this is one of the best, if not the best, live performance of all time. Just incredible!

[@maureenjones7222]

Thank you Frank your a lovely chap. God bless.

[@Motivatedk9]

This version of Sound of Silence is by far my favorite. I am not a big fan of Simon and Garfunkel so this version gave me a new appreciation for the song itself, the lyrics, and the message that was meant to be made. I love Disturbed's version!!! If you like"Hallelujah", I recommend Jeff Gutt. His audition for X-Factor with his rock version of the song was AMAZING!!!

The lead singer David Draiman is a classically trained vocalist and you can tell with this song

[@jenniferchough]

Not classically trained. This seems to get posted every time but it's a myth someone started and just got passed around. He was trained as a cantor when he was young but not classically or operatically. Obviously David is immensely talented and he obviously learned how to do the vocal fry correctly with the right technique but classically trained, no.

[@brigettebridges9293]

@@jenniferchough I glad you cleared this up. I've posted it myself because it's what I was told. I knew about the cantor training when he was young but I had also read that he was classically trained. Honestly I imagine it continues to be spread because it's so easy to believe. :-)

The studio version is just as beautiful

[@pennyeaton904]

I've been watching a bunch of these vocal coach reviews, and very few even mention the fact that he gave this amazing performance, SITTING DOWN, because he was so sick at the time. I'm not a vocal coach, but I'd love to hear a professional opinion on the difficulty of getting that kind of projection, while seated.

If I was to recommend this cover or any cover of "The Sound of Silence" to you or any of these channels, I would have told all of you to first play the original video by Simon and Garfunkel. Paul Simon wrote this classic song in 1964 and I think their first video was released in 1965.

[@cricket778]

I am SO happy to have found your reaction. You truly appreciate music (“Both Sides Now” is a song my Dad introduced me to and became a personal anthem in my life along with “I am a Rock” by Simon & Garfunkel).

[@monicamalady1517]

Agreed absolutely in love with this song!!!

[@mrmcclish]

Loved the analysis. I looked into Jeff Buckley's version of Hallelujah because of this. I'd put it in the top 3 versions of the song. Rufus Wainright's version is my go to, but I think that's because the song is so interpretive. Jeff Buckley's version is softer, more vulnerable, which can relate to Samson's weakness. Pentatonix' cover shifts the conversation from being about Samson to being about Samson and Delilah in verse 3. Rufus is more like a passionate narrator.

[@patdeeforan1234]
