[@RLKmedic0315]

@@trentrez6643 Not sure what your problem is. Both versions of the song are great. The way the songs are arranged also allow them to emphasize different emotions through the same words. Distrubed's version takes absolutely nothing away from the original, nor was it meant to. My comment was, again, simply that I think it would be nice for the members of Disturbed to be aware that their music was appreciated by a group of people from a vastly different culture, literally on the other side of the world, but it was still enjoyed and appreciated. If I was a musician (I most certainly am not), I think that would be something I would like to know.

I was 5 years old when it was written and it remained popular for decades.

[@tohanwi]

Almost everyone seems to like the idea that Simon and Garfunkels version is the warning and Disturbeds version is the Rage from not being listened to, I've always seen this two ways, David sings with a visceral raw emotion of pain and loss of our souls aswell as the joining and union that music provides, The video is more of a unification of classical music and modern metal, that each generation finds their own voice and if suppressed will destroy.

I never heard the original version. Disturbed's is the first time I heard it. I was riding in the back of my dad's truck headed to town on a back road away from the main highway. As listened to the lyrics I pictured how would people express themselves when they would no longer be able to. An example is how the Scottish kept the way to play the bagpipes alive. Even though it was illegal for them to be played they didn't stay silent. Just as many Native American tribes did for their music dances stories and languages.

[@kman5475]

First, I want to say what a great job you did translating the lyrics. English is a difficult language in itself--but to translate poetry? And into a language that is only loosely-related? You folks are truly scholars, and you should receive the honor you deserve for that! Secondly, I am awestruck at the level of insight the participants interpreted the lyrics with. They have a lot of life experience, and they know how to apply it--even to music written half a century and half a world away. Humanity at it's finest. I do want to touch on an idea a few of them engaged with: there is a tension in this song about what exactly silence is. It is good to take moments of silence and darkness, but silence is also ignorance and death. I really feel that tension in the nature of silence was intentionally written in there--and I can see it playing out in the the discussions.

They are a Metal band but they do other cover songs as well, however their original songs are amazing. Another song of Disturbed's about this type of message is called "The Vengeful One". It's a harder rock song than this but you all have listened to Metallica, Jinjer and Rammstein already 😄. It's also a pretty cool music video as well. Another great reaction video. Your channel never fails to humble me in respect of everyone there. Thank you. 😎👍

The man in the light blue/silver was absolutely correct when he said that you want to dance to it, but at the same time, it wrenches your heart.

There is always light to move towards if you just look. This is personally one of my favorite songs. I enjoy it even more now, having heard their take on it. Thank you.

The raw emotion in David's voice makes this a very powerful and moving song for me. I already loved the original, then this came along and blew it out of the water.

[@christinacoffman1843]

The emotion in his singing, and also the pain written on his face. It is so raw, it almost hurts me to watch. I can feel it myself, in the depths of my soul. So powerful.

[@Kiwi_Tea]

Someone tried to say this was for Delores from the Cranberries...she died years after the release of this cover 😕

[@skilz8098]

The same for me. Simon & Garfunkel's version is a masterpiece. It's a beautiful song with a great melody and amazing harmonies. His vision of the song is almost otherworldly. I was born 17 years after the release of this song and I grew up listening to it in the early 80s. It's been one of my all time favorite songs throughout my life. In the early 90s I started getting into alternative, grunge and heavy metal. During the late 90s and early 2000s it almost appeared that heavy metal was almost dead. Then came along Disturbed with their hits: Down With the Sickness and Stupify. I was very familiar with Disturbed from the early 2000s. Then around 2015-17 I came across his cover of this song and didn't know what to expect. A classic singer songwriter song of the 60s in which that era of music has become my favorite era of all music is about to be done by a modern heavy metal band. I first came across his live performance on Conan. I was literally impressed, in shock and in awe. A few weeks later I had found out that during his performance on Conan, he refused auto tune and he had sang the song with a head cold and would have never known the difference if I didn't listen to an interview with him. During that interview I had also found out that he personally chose to take Opera Lessons in order to have anger and to be able to sing with a bit of screaming that would not ruing or damage his vocal cords. Talk about dedication. He's an absolute amazing singer. I already knew his early works and liked his heavy metal music but never knew that he could actually sing that good and he actually had a very good singing voice. His control and pronunciation of words is above par, his projection of emotion and soul is beyond this world, and his range and ability to both hold and sustain notes and to transition to notes in different registers is phenomenal. Then I went on to watch the official music video on KZbin. Paul may have written a masterpiece and gave us all a blessing with a wonderful song, but this man David stole the show. I've heard others cover this song over the years and most fell short compared to the original, and now Draiman owns it! There was one other group that did this song which was quite different where I was impressed and truly enjoy their cover and that was done by Pentatonix or PTX for short. They did an amazing job on this song too. Very few covers of this song have ever impressed me but these two have. Between them, I still say that even as impressive as PTX is with their pure Acapella talent and amazing voices that Disturbed has earned his wings with this song. Even Paul Simon in an interview said virtually the same thing. He said something on the lines, this is how the song should have sounded all along. When he originally wrote the song, Simon & Garfunkel had to play it in a manner according to the popular style of the music in their day otherwise the record companies or labels would have never produced it. This is how it is supposed to be and I don't see anyone anytime soon topping it.

[@christinacoffman1843]

@skillz8098 very well put. I agree, except for the heavy metal part. I have a different perspective. I grew up listening to metal in the late 80s/early 90s (I graduated HS in 1991). I felt like grunge killed rock N roll, including metal. To me, alternative was my replacement. To this day, I dislike most grunge music, especially Nirvana. I held them responsible for killing my music. I know that is stupid now. Still can't find my way to liking Nirvana though. I DO agree there was some come-back in the 2000s. And, I agree that Simon and Garfunkle's version was excellent, too. This is one re-make that equals or even possibly exceeds the original. To be fair, the two versions are so different. They are almost completely different scores of music. I get goosebumps every time I hear Disturbed version. BTW, thanks for all the additional info. Very interesting to know David took Operatic lessons. I come from a classical background; being a pianist since the age of 9, in addition to being a heavy metal chic that enjoyed the oldies in her high school years (50s, 60s & 70s for me), and loving 80s pop. I appreciate and enjoy most types of music, and think it is cool when people cross their genres. P. S. I, too, enjoyed the Pentatonix version, although they have better cover songs in my opinion, such as Hallelujah, and Bohemian Raphsody. I think they excel in Christmas music mostly.

[@skilz8098]

@@christinacoffman1843 I like PTX's Evolution of Music. That is something else, and I love their Christmas music, especially Little Drummer Boy, Carol of the Bells, Mary Did You Know, Silent Night, and more... When I say grunge Nirvana was okay, but for me, I liked Pearl Jam, S.T.P., Alice In Chains... For me, I like just about anything that is related to Rock N Roll or Rock. I also like R&B, Soul, Doo-Wop, and more. I don't care too much for modern country, but I do like the older country from the 60s & 70s. I'm familiar with and have a background in music. I had played the trumpet all through middle and high school. I don't just enjoy basic radio music. I also like things such as Drum and Bugle Corps, Movies like Whiplash, Riverdance was great, and more. For me, music is what moves the soul.

This is absolutely one of my favorite reviews of Sounds Of Silence with these lovely and unbiased people !

[@LG-jb9zs]

Thank you for making this video, this is one of my favourite songs and I love how Disturbed sings it! To me, the "Silence" they talk about is the lack of connection between humans. No one dares to break the "silence" of being alone, but one man trying to reach out with music slowly inspires others to pick up their own instruments and also reach out. In this modern age, we've lost some of our ability to form simple human connections. Reaching out and trying to defeat that "silence" of loneliness is difficult, but worth it.

[@silversiren7046]

For me personally, I feel that the lyrics are a warning of what happens when we allow our voices to be lost to creeping oppression of our own design. The "sound of silence" is people afraid to talk, afraid to seek knowledge and explore their creativity, or lack thereof, and afraid to share their opinions and thoughts in case it shatters the lives they live. Not knowing that, without their voice, they aren't really living at all. Music is, after all, the expression of self through harmonic sound. I think Katy Perry's "chained to the rhythm reflects this as well though the style is entirely different (being that Katy's individuality shines through as Dave's does here). Both amazing artists. It's wonderful to see music reaching people so far away. Though not unexpected. We are all human, after all, and there is a base part of us that music, done well, can always reach no matter how far apart we might be emotionally, physically or culturally.

[@michellemelville8979]

[@rockgamegirl4551]

I do agree, this song, along with the title, has so many different meanings in it. the title alone can be the silence of people getting addicted to technology to the point of withdrawing from others, or silence of not standing up for others when needed and allowing the suffering of others. the addiction to technology is expressed in the lines "when my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light that split the night and touched the sound of silence" and " people talking without speaking, people hearing without listening", "and the people bowed and prayed to the neon God they made" and not standing up for others when they said "people writing songs that voices never share and no one dare disturb the sound of silence" and " 'fool' said I 'who do not know, silence like a cancer grows." plus, like the guy in the video said about the line in the naked light I saw 10,000 people maybe more, it could be referring to social media now and the we're not really feeling alone. this song was ahead of it's time, disturbed just put the feeling that should be with it

[@brittvdr806]

Neon God was TV in the 60's. Now, this song has another meaning for me, social media. Ppl don't communicate anymore how humans are supposed to communicate. TV was bad for communication back then, all watching TV and not communicating anymore with other ppl, but nowadays? Humans lost their social and communication skills, especially our teenagers and even kids. How sad. Humans need facial expression and body language beside words on a screen!! Ppl are like monkeys nowadays, typing words in stead of talking/speakinh, communicate through a phone or keyboard. Neon God is social media for me, technology. How poor we get, that is what I think when I see ppl in a restaurant, all heads down, eyes at their screen. Or a group of teenagers. Really not okay.

The reactors all grasped that concept and understood the true message in the song. Excellent video, and a lesson I hope we may someday take to heart.

I'd love to see their reaction to him singing live and how he holds his hands.. Having been raised Jewish and taught to be a Cantor, he still holds a lot of the old mannerisms that show it.. it's especially visible on this song when he was live on Conan O'Brien's show, right at the end he touches his forehead with both hands in a bow, and then opens his arms wide. I've also seen concert footage of him singing while holding his hands up, palms up, as if he was reading scripture as both Muslims and Jews do.
