Paul Simon apparently heard David sing this rendition and liked it so much that he said David should now own this song. He said this version really hits the emotions he was trying for when he wrote the original version.

David Draiman...one of the best male vocalists on the planet imho. He has a tone to his voice I've never heard before. When he sings....you know who it is. He can go from angelic head voice to rasp/distortion on a dime and back....not easy to do. Also did you notice he can put vibrato on the rasp too? VERY difficult to do. Love your take on it CJ.

As is often repeated, the statement goes that Simon and Garfunkel's version gave the warning; Disturbed's expresses the rage that the warning was not heeded. The same lyrics, in very different styles.

When Simon and Garfunkle did this it was a warning, David's version is anger that we did not heed the warning. See the cover by Puddles, His spin on the song reflects a deep sadness that the warning has come to fruition. 3 versions, each adding a meaning to the original, yet each true to the original composition. And David Draiman has one of the most amazing voices ever.

Another side to Disturbed ... "Don't Tell Me," from their album Divisive that dropped a few months ago. It's a bit of a power ballad, but it's a duet with David and Ann Wilson from Heart. I mean ... their voices together are freakin' epic! She's in her early 70s, so her voice has obviously changed from her days as a young rocker, but OMG, is it special! So rich and inviting, but in keeping with her rock goddess status. Love it!

Paul Simon wrote some great songs full of poetry and meaning. But the best versions of his songs are done by other singers. Bob Dylan’s cover of “The Boxer”, and David Draiman of Disturbed’s cover of “The Sound of Silence”, come to mind. The grit, emotion, and meaning of Simon’s lyrics were always present in his songs, but not best conveyed by Simon and Garfunkel’s voicals.

This has become a standard for the band, always expected at their live gigs! David and his brother were trained Jewish cantors. He turned to metal and his brother is an opera singer. Paul Simon said he wrote this after a dream and the meaning is still argued about. The video I feel talks of the rediscovery of lost music. One island find the sheet music, the other find the instruments and travel to them... Paul Simon saw THIS very performance on Conan and loved it. Poor David was really poorly with a bad cold when he sung it on Conan, so I urge you to watch the official video to hear David in top form and the visuals really add to the music. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eJyag4mtaK5rm8k Check these interviews with David... kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKWxl6qlgKljjqM kzbin.info/www/bejne/baauiXuui550i8U David being interviewed and performing on stage The Vengeful One and Sound of Silence... kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKqZhYamq5t1gtU The official video... kzbin.info/www/bejne/q2qnmGCdbNllopY The original Simon and Garfunkel version... kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHKooaN8irx_nMU Fascinating that Pentatonix chose to cover Disturbed’s version rather than the original... kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZW5m4mqpddoa68 One of Disturbed’s classic tunes!!!! kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZmqvhYdmrdyXnNk

I so want to go to a concert or comedy show and see you interrupt the live band or comedian to pause constantly so you can tell everyone around us what your opinions are DURING the show rather than wait and after enjoying the actual experience in full and reacting to it properly and then giving thoughts in parking lot (ie at the end when you can reply or jump to spots that impressed you). Do not fret 99.999999% of the so called REACTION videos do the same thing, which is a total lie because its an analysis video, to properly react it has to be uninterrupted and fresh. Still I do agree with what you said just hope future REACTIONS are treated as such and you react first and then pull it apart after.

Dude you have to pause it or it gets blocked. You can’t simply play the video in one. KZbin will cancel your channel eventually if you do that. If your not someone who posts regularly yourself you won’t know that. I always hope that if you truly love the performance you will go and watch the original video for yourself.
