I am not a heavy metal fan. But I am a David Draiman and Disturbed fan. I am 68 years wise. The Sound of Silence was a song of my youth, and one of my all time favorites. When I heard that a heavy metal band had done a cover of that song, I was very skeptical. When I heard it for the first time I was shocked at what an incredible version it is! I think that I have heard the cover hundreds of times by now and each time I love that cover more and more! Also I have been in the mental health field for over a dozen years and I thank David for being such a caring advocate! ❤ I have GERD, but not anywhere as bad as David, and I am sans gallbladder. I have GAD too. Definitely complicates life.

I found Disturbed about 3 years ago hearing "THE Sound of Silence" & I cried . They are Iconic❤. I am 76yrs young & THE Beatles were my favorite band but after hearing David Draiman & Disturbed I fell in ❤. They are real & CARE about people & their fans. We recently had a Celebration of Life for our precious best friend & I had "Memories" played after I spoke & everyone was blown away & they wanted to know who that was. I was thrilled to talk about "DISTURBED" & even played some of their songs especially "Sound of Silence" , I cried & there was complete Silence. I ❤ them & have every album of theirs. When some people hear that they are considered Heavy Metal they are put off until they hear them & then they say "where have they been all my life"? They get into your ❤ & Spirit & have a way of never leaving, they become a part of you. When I pass I want "Memories" played at my CELEBRATION OF LIFE. THEY ARE A CELEBRATION IN MY ❤ EVERY SINGLE DAY.

It amazed me as a person who has been into music my whole life, that this man was classically trained. I have to admit that he and disturbed changed my mind about heavy metal.

I am nearing my 71st birthday and I found DISTURBED performance of the Sound of Silence totally by accident. I thought, as a youth, that I loved this song as one of my all time favourites but I didn’t know until now why. After having watched David Draimans’ performance the lyrics all makes sense and the timing of the release by Simon and Garfunkel in the midst of the war in Vietnam and the release by Disturbed in 2016 all makes sense. People didn’t listen to the importance of the message in the original. After watching Disturbed and especially the vocal by Draiman I feel the anger that I didn’t know was there. I continue to sob each time have watched this video. My maternal grandmother disappeared in 1944 from Budapest Hungary. My mother was 16 years old and found refuge in a catholic orphanage. This was 10 years before I was born. Not only did people not listen in 1964 we/they now challenge the prophetic message from those beautiful lyrics.

Damn Yes ! Soon to be 77.... but when someone special, powerful, and skin-prickling.....comes along... I know I am still alive and learning and I am changing . . .. NO Growing ! Don't count this old broad out yet ! 👍

[@roemomfreer]

Yes! Thank you!

[@Antoinettescloset]

They did a PHENOMENAL job with The Sound of Silence. Any worries that he had about doing the song justice should be no more.

[@HapG-12]

Sound of Silence by Disturbed has lived in my head rent free since it was released. Just wow. What a ballsy move to take on a classic and FML well done for making it better. (IMHO)

[@patriciagrace8439]

Smartest move he ever made

[@MaggieGilmer]

Thankful for who you and the band are. You have kept me standing and not giving up. I heard memories song this morning and like your other's I'm thankful

[@estherkritharakis9443]

I constantly listen to his music the sound of silence oh boy I cry and it sends shivers to my heart ❣️❣️❣️❤️❤️

[@jackiemckinney5793]

I'm a 72 yr old woman and I have been following Disturbed I think from the beginning. I love you all and thank you for great artistry.*💕

[@jefffry2914]

I saw Disturbed for the first when they opened for Slipknot and when they wheeled David out strapped to table and he had a Hannibal Lector mask on its something I'll never forget.

[@PyramidHead-xs5gy]

Slipknot is my favorite band and disturbed is a close 2nd, the 1st time I seen both bands was the same exact way.. When they rolled Dave out I went crazy 😂 It was at Mayhem fest Camden in 2008

[@alex86devapath]

Same here. 1st time seeing them was mayhem fest opening for Slipknot. Was awesome show that was!

[@PyramidHead-xs5gy]

@@alex86devapath I'm so happy I got to see them with Joey and paul..

[@fearfulclan2007]

​@@PyramidHead-xs5gyI'm still wanting to go to see Slipknot live. I saw Disturbed back in 2016 at the Chicago Open Air Concert after a year of listening to them and they were amazing. I also was 13 about to be 14 on August 17th at the time. Now I'm 21, like holy shit time flies!

[@Hollyucinogen]

​@@PyramidHead-xs5gyMy dude, check out the Howard Jones era of Killswitch Engage. 🤟

[@nannaMarie]

I absolutely love this man!❤

[@cherylsoderstrom7391]

Im 64, just got done with my fanatical dance/exercise routine to Stupify and Down With the Sickness. Then comes on this great interview with a wonderful man!!! Love it.

[@patriciaegan7244]

The sound of silence was a masterwork by both of you.

[@irenegriffin3050]

Fantastic interview! David is one of a kind and an absolute gift! Not just as a singer but as a human being! I can tell he cares from how he interacts with fans at shows and now hearing how he and Disturbed treat each other with such respect! I don't know if he'll be reading comments and I don't usually direct comments to someone in an interview, but if I could say anything to him is thank you for absolutely blessing us with his amazing talent and for being such a good human! We need more people like him in this world. To so positively affect so many people that don't personally know him nor ever have met him is incredible! I feel selfish being thankful for that considering how much he sacrifices to be able to continue singing but thank you to him and the rest of Disturbed! ❤

[@MinChaa-k2m]

one of the best interviews that i have heard in such a long time. so honest and so authentic artist

[@Ralphetta]

My favorite video at 74 is The Sound of Silence❤❤❤❤❤ awesome

[@TheTankFG]

Always awesome to hear David speak. Such a talented singer and extremely well spoken and intelligent guy.

[@GildedPoo]

This is actually the most well put together and balanced interview I've seen of David. Not too heavy on the mental health stuff like in other interviews, but not totally neglecting the subject either. Just simply a good interview.

[@Tama2toe]

How humble, how devoted... this guy and his band impresses me.

[@hetfieldprophet]

Got to meet David many years ago. His kindness has left a lifelong impression on me. One of the most down to earth rockstars out there!!!

[@amoyjoyce1117]

The first time I listened to him I thought wow ! His voice is haunting , it demands I listen ! , and I did ! and I loved it .
