[@SchnellJordan]

😀Hello Beautiful Humans! ❤ Hope you are enjoying my reactions. If you have a minute, please do check out my latest cover: GLIMPSE OF US (Joji) ON MY MUSIC CHANNEL → kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3rLn5Sta7h8sKs THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR SUPPORT!

[@joegroves1519]

Luv ur reaction. Nailed it!!! ❤❤❤

[@bradleymarquardt4464]

Very awesome reactions. David has one hell of a voice.

[@kitrichardson9916]

I know I'm just coming across this reaction, but that's because I love Disturbed and this cover reaction is making its rounds once again to a new crop of reactors! I myself am an artist of words as well, but in the literary form. However, I am unknown so my literary style is still fresh and new. I believe the world SHALL know of my writing soon mainly because of the depth and emotion it comes with! That's all I have to say. HAPPY NEW YEAR!! 🎉

[@RodRuth]

I would think this is the best cover of this song ever recorded........

[@MrEntede]

Unapologetically; This is the best version of this song ever recorded.

[@mdreichelt7682]

Absolutely!

[@Thontor]

It's hard to compare because they are so different but the Pentatonix version is great as well. Both are amazing covers.

[@jonathonlush880]

Pretty sure that it is the only cover that has had the nod of approval from Simon and garfunkle

[@troylevi9654]

100%

[@Princess_karen]

He is a classically trained cantor. He was also sick when he sang this. Best cover of this song ever done. Paul Simon also loved this

[@vimes3303]

I never get tired of seeing the reactions to this cover. In my view the best of Sound on Silence. I can't even find the right words to describe this stunning version.

[@xDARKHUNER17x]

Its a religious experience. As if God Himself came down and sang this song through David.

[@JuanMorales-en5zy]

Agreed It's Like Johnny Cash Covering NIN "Hurt" They Both Made These Songs Theirs.

[@ruthiewohlforth5464]

David Draiman ....one of the best male vocalists on the planet Imho. A powerful yet soulful voice that can go from warm baritone to angelic tenor, from clear as a crystal to vocal fry/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! Loved your reaction Schnell and agree with you 100%!.

[@Deborah-ni9bj]

You are right, best make vocalist on the planet!! There are no words!!!!!

[@TheSwede9]

After Schnell talked about how she loves vocal fry in the right spots, who else was looking forward to the "And the people bowed and prayed"?... I have seen this performance dozens of times and I can't help but just get chills every time. Like you pointed out in the reaction I just love how he plays with everything so dynamically to fit the song and the lyrics he's singing. I'm not a singer but that's what I love about this performance so much. Great reaction.

[@carolineben-ari2798]

Totally! I was watching her face like a hawk at that part.

[@Smeg699]

I think what always gets me about this performance is that David was sick as hell when they did this. Like, he was so sick that the rest of band was like, "Sure, we can do this, but you're gonna sit down for the performance because we don't want you to collapse on stage." And then the fucking studio execs or producers or whatever, slipped in just the TINY bit of autotune, and David was FUCKING PISSED about it. The man is a fucking lyrical treasure and if you ever get a chance to see 'em in concert, do it. Don't pass GO, don't stop to collect $200, just fucking see 'em.

[@xboxbml]

He’s purposely vocal frying his voice in those intense phrases... he does that so well..it’s his signature..

[@nateschmall8873]

I have heard this cover so many times and I still get chills

[@dcg590]

Every. Time.

[@kristinwright6632]

I have heard that Paul Simon who wrote this back in the 60s (and those of us old enough knew this as a hit from Simon and Garfunkel) not only congratulated him but said that it was now his song. I agree. The original is amazing but it was more poignant. This version shows the rage barely under the surface of the lyrics. This is a timeless urban poem.

[@livingmirror888]

i especially appreciate how CLEAR the lyrics are. No matter what range his voice is in, it's clear and SO controlled. I love his voice.

[@LeeCarlson]

Mr. Draiman is a classically trained cantor from Chicago and during this performance, he was actually fighting a serious bout of influenza. And I love how he transitions from his vocal fry to a clear note in the middle of his "tenement halls" line.

[@brucedickinson12]

Is he classically trained wow I have never heard that b4

[@jenniferwalter2639]

I love that transition as well, what talent!

[@nreRagnaros]

@@brucedickinson12 He isn't, big myth that's been thrown around on youtube so many times. He is trained as a cantor, huge difference.

[@clonexx]

He’s not classically trained, just trained as a cantor, there’s a pretty big difference between being classically trained and being a cantor. Also, he had a cold, not the flu. Either way, this was a stellar performance for anyone who was feeling great, let alone fighting a cold.

[@gperk4723]

Hey Lady? I was in elementary school when this song came out...I'm 63 yrs old..this is a live cover of an ABSOLUTE CLASSIC! But this band NAILED IT!!❤❤

[@WayneMahoney-i4m]

I’m 60 years old and 100% agree!!!!

[@patrickgiles2700]

When Paul Simon himself declares this “their” song, that’s saying a lot. And props to David’s band mates on piano/keyboard, acoustic guitar and drum. Obviously Draiman draws all of the attention but his band brothers also played a big role in this.

[@sherryhoerr5857]

You just witnessed the vocal olympics. He is the man with the voice. Thanks for covering this. Especially, the live version!

[@xzessperated]

A great reaction to this song Schnell. Thanks. David is the drug. I don't just listen to this song but I feel it. It seems like I have listened to this more than 1,000 times and every time I have tears. Not tears of sadness, but tears of excitement. For me it is the best song I have ever heard and brings out many emotions in me. Thank you David for making my life better through your AMAZING voice.

[@tmasessa]

Possibly the best cover ever.

[@dabegmister]

The hair on my entire body stands up everytime he introduces the growl his voice is one-of-a-kind

[@woody9x656]

Absolutely one of my top videos to watch reactions on. I get goosebumps EVERY time I hear it. This live version is 100% better than the official video....although I'm not sure why that is. One thing to point out is that I got the feeling based on your comments that you may think this is their original song (how many times he's sung it in his career etc.) so you may want to look up the original by Simon and Garfunkle if that is the case. To my knowledge he only started singing their version shortly before this performance. Great reaction though! Thanks!

[@elenadinu7576]

@woody9x, you are correct. The "Immortalized" record, on which this song appears for the first time, had been released in August 2015 and then Disturbed released it as a single in December 2015. But maybe she didn't notice the date of this live performance. It's been 5 years, already... Masterpiece rendition and really nice reaction! 💖💖

[@gregd6706]

@woody9x in your opinion. The vocal in the official video is every bit as good as the Conan performance (if not better) and the imagery is UNBELIEVABLE. The OMV is FAR SUPERIOR....in my opinion.

[@woody9x656]

@@gregd6706 Absolutely Greg. The produced version is obviously great and I listen to it all the time. There's just something about this live version that takes it to another level for me, more than most other live performances I've seen.

@@woody9x656 The video was better is what I said.

[@PaulBurnett007]

I dislike when people who do reactions don’t do their homework. Know who wrote the song. Understand that they want to react honestly so they don’t prelisten but don’t be ignorant.

[@Jedi4Life-u5y]

Great reaction! 5 years later and I still love watching people react to this epic performance. It was made greater by the fact that David Draiman was actually ill that day, yet still delivered a spectacular performance. The live orchestra also added to this incredible performance. Paul Simon, the song's creator, is said to have reached out to the band after this performance. Referring to it as the greatest cover of any of his songs, he posted the video on his social media so that his fans could share in this amazing version of a classic song. So popular has this live performance become that Conan celebrated it last year as the first video from his show to get 100 million views. An absolute classic for the ages, IMHO. Keep up the great work!

[@cyndianderson7056]

I probably watched 1 million of those views. 😂 I love it. He gives me goosebumps.

[@FlipSix]

It's hard to not be swept away emotionally listening to this song! David pulls you in and makes you feel the emotion and message in the lyrics!

[@1stCainite]

I was about to object that she could not have heard this song "ages ago", because the song is not that old a cover. Then I remembered that I am old.

[@richardbaumeister466]
