My mom is 74 years old..one day I went to her house and caught her sweeping singing this song blasting through her house.🤭🤭🤭

[@adupray]

Hell yes 🤘🏽

[@loisr3970]

Rock on Momma!!lucky girl party with Momma😅

[@davidflott8330]

She obviously was "down with the sickness" 😅

[@RunningNotStopping]

😂😂😂😂

[@violetfemme411]

I don't know your mom, but I freaking LOVE HER 💜

[@terrymills810]

can you imagine how we felt we were used to Distrubed like this and than they dropped Sounds on us

[@Wishbone1977]

When listening to music you haven't heard before, _always_ start with the studio version. If you wish, you can then go and listen to live versions afterwards, but always start with the version arranged and mixed in the way the band intended it to be ideally presented. There _are_ some fantastic live versions of songs out there, but the vast majority of live recordings are inferior to the studio versions, and even most of the really good live performances are better appreciated when you know the band and the song beforehand.

[@rowaineboyd1536]

The 'Official' video is slightly better, but any Disturbed is a good listen. Such a difference to the Sound of Silence! Glad to see your reaction to this one. Disturbed is one of the most appealing bands to me because of their versatility and 'in your face' attitude.

[@zippymacadoo6336]

He's singing about the damage done by parental abuse. I, for one, felt this song from the first time I heard it; even before I caught all the lyrics. Radio plays an edited version without the "No Mommy!" section.

[@SuzanneDeniseB]

Sighs. Yep. I can relate unfortunately. ❤

[@Z-one1000]

Song has nothing to do with parental abuse. Mommy is a symbolism for "Mother Society" or the "Mother Culture" that punishes those who do not conform to it. David Draiman himself even explained this. But at the end of the day, you can interpret a song however you want. Soo...go ham, I guess.

[@dechiefjester]

I love the "Be you, they'll adjust!"

[@TheSwede9]

The crazy thing about Disturbed is really that he sounds the same live as on a record for the most part. This one is a little off in parts, but still unreal for being live. Such a vocal talent, fire reaction as always my man.

[@marcelfriedrich2863]

I think it's because they don't make the same mistake many bands do and that is to turn the instruments to loud, so that you don't/barely understand what the leadsinger is singing.

[@Blondebuzzard08]

Stoked to see them next month!!!

[@Levi-ou2zm]

Couple of my favorites by Disturbed are Prayer, Remember, Stricken and Indestructible. Hope you get around to those!

[@Punky_Brewster]

Yes! 4 of the best for sure.

[@unseenmal]

Prayer is my favorite Disturbed song but I also really like 10,000 Fists

[@emmef7970]

New subscriber. This video brought me here. i'm a 67 year old grandma that loves rock, metal etc. Been a rocker since the 60's starting with Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest and the like. Love this song and the vocals of David Draiman. My grandkids (teens & young adults) laugh when they here me listening to this music. I guess they think I should be listening to the BeeGees. lol. Should have watched the official video.

[@itsjustaviper]

Seeing the reaction of someone who hasn't heard this song is always gold. Edit: i haven't seen the live version but so far i think i might like the non-live version a lil more...

[@sierra3830]

yeah, I think you always like the version of a song you heard first, probably something weird our brains do lol

[@otherkorean]

There is another live version on YT in an outdoor arena. They freakin' killed it, though personally prefer smaller auditoriums like this.

[@kylesage-clontz]

I think there are specific bands that sound better live, or at least put on a show that blows the album out of the water (Rammstein, I'm looking in your direction,) but in general the studio version is better unless you're actually there.

[@endgamer322]

Asylum is my personal favorite Disturbed song, but I like almost everything they've put out. Hope you keep reacting to them

[@firefighterchick]

Disturbed is one of my bands! They have an older metal feel to them. A list to start with of theirs The Light A Reason To Fight Who Taught You To Hate Land of Confusion Hold Onto The Memories Indestructible Stupify Ten Thousand Fists Are You Ready? They speak out a lot about mental health and addiction as well. They are freaking amazing live! I say them several years ago and they are just as good live!

[@dudeusmaximus6793]

Glad you got to this one POLO, blew everyone's mind when it dropped. Total game changer.

[@ronb6152]

Stricken is one of my fav Disturbed songs.

[@munky342]

Stricken, Remember, Façade, Mistress, Uninvited Guest,... They just have so many bangers.

[@carihenson8019]

This is one of my absolute favorite bands to see live. Unbelievably talented. So much fun.

[@mikec9729]

My brother was in the Air Force and he said back then they used to crank this song before they went out on their Patrols

[@bradgeorge4018]

I was at this concert and am in the crowd. Chicago 2001

[@nikkiwilliams8508]

Many moons ago lol I saw them in San Antonio they opened for Korn. It was raining and freezing they kicked the show off with this song and it was awesome 😎 the steam was rising off his head while he was screaming.

[@AlexaOleksa]

Disturbed was one bands that was on that CD-RW that my classmate gave me in 9th grade, cause i was looking for Arials by SOAD, and he gave that mixtape with: SOAD, LP, Disturbed, Motorhead, NIN, Slipknot, Papa Roach, Perfect Cirlce, PropellerHeads, Korn etc...I never looked back😆

[@ansleypeterson8402]

I’m really loving your reactions. You should check out Godsmack, Under your scars and Unforgettable, definitely worth it!!

[@monsieurkarl]

As a huge metal fan, I love seeing your reactions. If you haven't already I highly recommend no leaf clover by metallica live, much love

[@rpeebles]

Saw these guys in Houston a few years ago and they were badass. Loved it when they brought Myles Kennedy in to do Sound of Silence...was pretty awesome live. Alter Bridge (Myles Kennedy) is another band that has been around a long time and still makes excellent music.

[@lynnieiapichino1121]

☮️💙💙💙🔥🔥way to switch it up!

[@pmal5680]

Indestructible is another great one I’d absolutely recommend

[@Rosiepooh75]

First Dolly, now Disturbed?? Who gave you my favorite artist list? 😂 I'm here for it all! 💗 Editing to add: have seen both live and they are both amazing. Disturbed are better than this live!

[@kimberlysaffles9332]

I was thinking the same. I saw them at Louder Than Life a couple of years ago and they were way better than this!

[@shannonharris886]

Anything from disturbed is breath taking

[@sammurphy3343]

Was definitely overplayed on the radio back in the day, but it's still one of best hype songs.

[@TheCharlesAtoz]

I like the studio version a little bit better.

[@Amerisis1972]

AMAZING in concert!

[@shannontrough2680]

"Stricken" is a great song and video!!!!!

[@kimzwolinski9919]

I saw David in an interview and they asked him about still performing this and some other old songs. He said he would also perform this and any other songs he values his fans. He also said sometimes he thinks “ wow did I really need to say something that many times 😂 I’m sure a lot of artists who have been around for a long time feel that way about something they made.

[@otherkorean]

That last verse is so damn brutal that most karaoke companies edit it out. I'd love to do the full version at some Country karaoke bar just to see the shock on their faces.

[@travisyarbrough4033]

Good way to get stomped out by an entire group wearing boots and holding bottles ...... Good luck with that fantasy

[@otherkorean]

@@travisyarbrough4033 I'd do it for the lulz,

[@anonymishap]

I like Disturbed and have a couple of albums on my playlist but for some reason I've never looked for any live performances, so I didn't know he did the section where he's going at his mum live 😅 Props to him though - he sounded great! 🤘

[@lsu1992]

That performance was of a band that has played a certain song so many times they have to really work to sell it...and it still sounded amazing.

[@itsRaininMenZ]

First concert I ever went to

[@markwillis675]

Your reaction to "The Game" is what turned me on to you. Keep it up and of course, spiral out.

[@justmejoy124]

This one I've always liked it's a rockin banger

[@deeanddude]

Polo, these lyrics aren’t sick, especially when you have lived them your entire childhood

[@theresashadwell9060]

🔥

[@ryanmclamb9878]

I don’t know if I could ever have the courage to trust the crowd to sing one of the most iconic parts of a song for me 😂😂

[@importantvideos4529]

Great reviews because theres no pandering, just authentic feedback. Appreciate that.

[@heavin6586]

Its amazing how he sounds as good if not better live

[@martinjanssen79]

I first heard the band and this song in 1999 or 2000 in a friend's car. Since then I've also had this LP and use it to teach my twelve-year-old daughter early on in music. Because if she hears hip-hop, she'll go to the children's home, I told her. 😆

[@michaelbrown3128]

They are definately a metal band!!!! The Sound Of Silence was a way for him to show people he can really sing! Plus a classic song he probably liked it as a kid. But, ya, great timing, they sound so good live!!!

[@tallouse2146]

I love this song 🎶

[@DirtyTurtle67]

This was one of the songs of the soundtrack for Queen of the Damned, it fit like a glove.

[@karlbecker8775]

This album blew my mind when I first heard it. Sound Of Silence is amazing, but this what they normally sound like.

[@karikaroable]

Ohhhhh, another great band , I love them 🤘🖤

[@jackiekendall7845]

SUCH A GREAT SONG!

[@SuzanneDeniseB]

Bwaha! Love this. My mother was a piece of work as well.

[@dametripleduece3282]

One of the best bands live.

[@TracyKelton]

Sounds of silence was a surprise for most Dusturbed fans, but as you can hear, he has always been a VERY powerful singer, he has a degree in political science and philosophy, so we expect him to have depth in his music. This style may not be everyone's cup of tea, but the entire band is amazingly artistic

[@bossbonita1235]

I can say- they’re one of the most amazing bands live!!! I saw them at Ozzfest!! DOPE AF! This song had the entire venue on their feet rocking out!! I broke a nail 😆😆😆😆

[@vdawg2224]

The entire "Believe" album. Front to back.

[@ruthiewohlforth5464]

Ah yes! As always....Disturbed delivers live too! Every bandmember is so damn talented ... and their lead singer, David Draiman is off the charts talented. He can switch that voice to so many levels and at the speed he wants! Amazing control!! Liked your response Polo!

[@kathleenmattox8731]

Hello, Polo. Good evening. Have fun with this. 🥰😍🥰

[@lialt1]

I just bought my tickets yesterday to see Disturbed again - It will be the 7th time my husband and I see them live. They put on such a great show. One of my all time favorite rock/metal bands. I've been a fan for over 20 years and they just keep putting on such great shows and doing such great music.

[@jameswilson6578]

2 thumbs up to the bass player....Bass you can feel in your gut

[@karentony3397]

Love your reaction again. I found this band at 56 years old after hearing Sound of Silence. The stories behind the songs should be looked into. Luv from Australia ❤️🎼❤️🎼❤️

[@dianesinnett4391]

David Draiman is the lead singer

[@omarleerojas]

Disturbed🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾

[@justmejoy124]

Those drums tho yeah

[@brandonwheeler156]

10,000 fists is my favorite song of theirs

[@scottspears9347]

Disturbed first cd is fire

[@scottbaron121]

You'd better hang on to your seat for this one.

[@Jen_S_Hassler1258]

POLO, you will LOVE this one: Please look up "The Godmother of Drums reacts to Down With the Sickness." You will ADORE this one because you love drums so much!

[@danw2276]

Saw them countless times and they never disappointed snd always left drained and fulfilled

[@silverbackhayabusa]

Re: the lyrics. This is a tough but great song in the sense that it captures the torment of a child abused by their mother. I lived this as a child and the lyrics in this song reflect what a child can slip into as a result of child abuse. Gratefully, I was able to simply put that abuse behind as soon as I left my abusive home understanding the abuse wasn't because I was a rotten child but my parent was rotten in their behavior.

[@GF-172]

🙂

[@Mmoll1990]

I prefer the studio version to this particular live performance.

[@JessBecause77]

There's a mash up by Dj Cummerbund called The Next Sickness that is worth listening to. He's got some sick mashes.

[@alvint2eight]

Would love for you to react to Muse! They are great live!

[@wichitadisciple9874]

I've seen them live 3 times... they're very good live.

[@jimfleming4955]

PLEASE!!!!! do the Richard Cheese cover of this song. All Richard Cheese songs are the "lounge singer" versions of popular songs. They are incredible and hilarious!!! Richard's cover of this song is featured in the movie "Dawn of the Dead". (Great movie by the way.)

[@cheshirekat528]

YES!!! I love that cover!!!

[@cheshirekat528]

And yes, great movie!

[@marinedude_06]

I've been lucky enough to have seen them twice live, both times awesome. Been a fan since their first album back in holy shit,over 20 fuckin' years ago.

[@VitaminJay12]

First time I heard this song was road tripping across country in my Grand Cherokee, you're going want to crank this up in your 4Runner! The studio version is great!

[@justmejoy124]

Wandering if you've ever covered WALK by Pantera dude that's dope to

[@AsaJames7]

This is my covid anthem!!!

[@athannyx6815]

I love this song though I usually listen to the radio edit for the casual listen. The one chunk is pretty rough.

[@Chong36]

Good sound, man. Got you slightly head banging, man.

[@julzy3]

"yeah this is def different from the Sound of Silence song" 🤣🤘

[@mattyt5605]

Let's see.... New favorite band is Tool. Getting into Sabbath, Metallica, Iron Maiden, Primus, and now Disturbed. Polo, I do believe we are turning you into a metalhead. Welcome to the family!

[@kylesage-clontz]

This is a great song for making memes, especially Howie Mandel memes.

[@user-curtisingreenville]

just catching up as a new guy. great review.

[@marlakay]

Fire 🔥

[@ChiefBones]

I prefer the studio version on this one.

[@dillonsronce2583]

This is how they normally sound compared to when they did the sound of silence cover.

[@thomasbrissee3251]

Check out Sevendust. Fucking great and definitely on the Disturbed edge of music.

[@calvingreen5202]

Great reaction and commentary!! I'm not the biggest Disturbed fan, but I do really enjoy quite a few of their songs. I think The Vengeful One, is an absolute banger. You should check it out, see what you think.

[@justawhisperintheuniverse8257]

Now you've gotta do "Stupify!"

[@goodytushoes4328]

I know you just did a perfect circle, but id love to hear your thoughts on their song passive next

[@gordonpromish9218]

give their Vengeful One a shot

[@munkeeBraynStoo]

POLO REACTS riding high on his sled, there goes Santa He's just a fat regular guy It seems all the good in him Has slowly faded inside It seems he's having some trouble In dealing with those strange elves Living with these strange elves Oh, now that Santa's gone mad I'm not sure If he will he here, tonight Get down, said are you up for this Christmas? Open up your plate & throw some turkey at me

[@RunningNotStopping]

Bro, album version- headphones- ASAP

[@travisbg44]

Polo. You gotta review sound of silence from disturbed. Yes its a remake but its amazing.

[@TheFlem69]

Ice Nine Kills - Farewell II Flesh

[@scottspears9347]

There's a song off the same album called The Game. You would love it

[@shirleyelliott2985]

Might I recommend Doby Gray drift away. and only his version not the Uncle Kracker version. in my opinion it's basically a tribute to music and how it helps people get by. I think it's an awesome song

[@seanpatton7406]

POLO, "Land of Confusion" is another cover Disturbed does. It's a song from the 80's performed by the band Genesis which included Phil Collins. Original - kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6Kad36FaqmfjJI Disturbed - kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4eXoIyhfsp6gMU
