TWIN BROTHER FIRST TIME HEARING Disturbed - "The Sound Of Silence" REACTION

[@Wombat32]

I was in the audience for this performance. As soon as he started singing, everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, in the room sat up and stared without moving for the remainder. It was honestly a life-changing experience. Most of these videos cut off the applause at the end, but it was deafening and sustained for at least 5 minutes.

Hey, I’m 43 and like all kinds of music and obviously love this version of Sounds of Silence...but what you boys do here is more powerful than you think. It teaches younger people who might not be receptive toward different music genres to be more open minded. It also shows older folk who think the younger generations don’t appreciate “good music” that, Yeah, actually they do. Keep up the good work fellas.

[@MS-km1ue]

You nailed it. I absolutely agree. The twins have actually made me appreciate the songs they review even more bc of their own passion and respect for the art no matter what the genre. Whenever I am feeling frustrated or even somewhat disgruntled after a hard news day, I tune into their channel and recharge my positive feelings. They always remind me there is hope we can all still find common ground within American culture and art despite our complicated and painful history. What’s so cool is they are Millennials listening to and appreciating a Boomer generation song performed by a GenXer. The Sound of Silence has definitely survived the test of time! I love this song and love these guys! ❤

[@gailkshaw]

According to Paul Simon, he wrote it when he was 21. Before Kennedy was assassinated. His words regarding the song - “The key to "The Sound of Silence" is the simplicity of the melody and the words, which are [based on] youthful alienation. It's a young lyric, but not bad for a 21-year-old. It's not a sophisticated thought, but a thought that I gathered from some college reading material. It wasn't something that I was experiencing at some deep, profound level - nobody's listening to me, nobody's listening to anyone - it was a post-adolescent angst, but it had some level of truth to it, and it resonated with millions of people. Largely because it had a simple and singable melody, ‘

Listen to the message!! It's a DIRE WARNING. Written in the 60's and coming true today.

[@rohatmora5538]

The original version was a warning against the rise of technology (Television / now 'social media') - causing less and less 'human' interaction (think about how people brag they have 6,000 'friends' on Facebook, or how people will 'text' someone whom is literately sitting next to them, rather than just 'talk' to them). Disturbed's version is equated to the 'rage' of someone because those warnings were not listened to - and how its becoming so 'uncomfortable' to even just 'talk' to someone without worrying about offending or being offended, because it feels easier to just 'use social media' instead of our own voices. The short version is its a warning about humanity losing what makes us 'human' - and instead embracing the 'neon god' (tech) which lets us 'communicate' but also leaves us in silence - as we forget HOW to communicate with each other as human beings.

[@joshythehand2960]

Your God of war comment was a great analogy. His version def has a powerful depth to it that harkens to times mystic and darkly beautiful..

[@robwheelut]

wow I love it when the current generation can be amazed by this song...That shows me many are going in the right direction

[@SacredWaves]

Watch their actual video, if you haven't yet. Just frigging Epic!!

[@jellybeansbud3610]

The second they said his voice was so deep and calm, oooh buddy just wait lol

[@billiemchone515]

I thought the same thing!! 😉

[@lindagourlay1892]

Fred said that first

[@saffronmartin7335]

Hauntingly Beautiful ...That Voice 👌

[@Daeira1]

It’s nice to see the next generation appreciate this song. Great reaction! God bless you.

[@kathys6402]

Hey guys! It is hard to believe that David was quite ill when he did this live performance. That is why he is sitting down, he was afraid he would not be able to stand for the whole performance. I think that him doing this so well live and it almost exactly matches the studio version, shows just what a great vocalist David is. By the way, those "big drums" are timpani, or also called kettle drums, which are typically used in symphony orchestras for classical music. Happy Thanksgiving & I hope you both have a great weekend!

[@JoeSmith-iv3sf]

How many times are you ppl gonna post this shit on these damn reactions. Did he walk up hill both ways barefoot in the snow to school also?

[@amandawarren8856]

I was lucky enough to see him perform this live. I'll never forget the feeling.

[@elizabethneterval1531]

Thank you! I had never heard this cover before.

[@robertaclark6079]

OMG! Not only am I loving the purity of these two's reactions, I am being educated on different artists and genres at the same time. This 68 yr old white grandma, a Woodstock nation classic rock chick, just found Disturbed and love them! Keep on rocking in the free world, guys. P.S. I IMMEDIATELY subscribed. First KZbin subscription ever!👍✌💓

[@jessicashenefield1546]

Disturbed is a fascinating group! And I have a touch of envy that you got to enjoy Hendrix, Joplin, et al in real time.

[@jenniferfalke7586]

This version of the song is a miracle, I love it. I think, I even like it better than the original Version. Because it is such a melancholy mood.And you think:" which life/experiences must a man have had to be able to sing like that." It is great to see your feelings about it, too. :-) carry on with your videos. :-)

[@makaylaanderson1816]

The drum is a tympany. And a big THANK YOU! Thank you for your love of music and willingness to listen to so many different styles. Ya'll rock.

[@feliciam2953]

Disturbed was my first concert. When I heard David sing this live it sent chills up my spine. Trust me, even though this video was recorded live, it's got nothing on hearing it live & in person. ❤

[@sarasorensen2650]

Not only did he slay it, but was sick for this performance. When they tried to get him to use autotune, he essentially gave them the bird. He doesn't need autocorrect ever.

[@eileenhunter9961]

I love how open you two are. If only everyone was.

[@Droopydrawers]

Gives me goosebumps everytime I hear it

[@Shay-nu7id]

My Mom used to play the original ...I still remember . I was around 4 my Uncle had just returned from the Vietnam War and would sit and stare saying nothing ...he lived with us ...my Mom was 20 yrs old . It was just us...my Mom was a Foster Child she only had her brother. She would cry because he would not speak ...trauma.. he spoke finally but only to me. I went into Foster Care and never saw him again . This song reminds me of him I wish I could see him again.

[@steelmagnolia4934]

[@claudiawaggoner4151]

😍😍😍

[@fishnaccomplishd]

Shay ❤️

[@taramckinney6402]

Omg ♥️♥️ that makes this song even more haunting just imagining that time of our country. So sad for all those going men who saw too much and suffered in silence ♥️♥️

[@lindagourlay1892]

Dear Shay.. I hope you have found some happiness ♥️

[@jblakeblake5115]

His voice gives me Chills! WOW

[@MsSecondchance2]

I GOT GOOSE BUMPS WITH EVERY NOTE SUNG!!! IVE HAVENT HEARD THIS SONG IN DECADES!!!!

[@Shrykespeare]

Great choice, guys. David Draiman's voice is head and shoulders above so many other metal singers. Has been for decades.

[@lauracooper6955]

Never saw that performance! Goosebumps! Can you imagine being in the audience? I think I woulda cried.

[@grace4u850]

Your genuine excitement about this song carries the whole experience to the next level!!!!!! Thanks for being a Blessing!!!! SWEET!!!!!!!! Keep it coming!!!!!!!!!!

[@65presleychick]

This is hauntingly beautiful.

[@alexemerson9886]

Something I love about watching y'all's videos is it's like finding these songs for the first time myself, where I might have lost touch with these bands/songs before. It's extremely soothing, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

[@jessicashenefield1546]

My teenager came in griping about why I'm watching dacron videos where the songs get interrupted instead of just listening to the music. Bruh, you don't understand the mindbend of somebody not being raised on the music I raised y'all on. And then I realized I hadn't really introduced them to the music *I* was raised on. Might have to start a channel for that. Lol.

[@amandaschlumpfbernardino5532]

Another favorite song! Disturbed’s version of this song gives me chills. His voice is amazing.

[@Ogreletmama]

He comes from a family of trained cantors. Look those up and you'll get it. Btw- he was sick with the flu when he did this performance I believe.

[@rebeccahamilton5812]

Bingo! And that's why he has no tattoos even though he wants them...he can't be buried in Israel if he does.

[@SherPettit]

Hauntingly Beautiful 💫David has one of the best most powerful voices out there. He was sick with the flu during this performance.

[@DD-bj5yp]

Just love watching you guys….that song is 40 years old and just as relevant today.

[@pennymccormick3471]

He is a trained Cantor. His voice is a gift...

[@jbeers1234]

Watch “Down with the Sickness” next, will blow your mind that the same guy is singing both of these tunes!

[@HistorysRaven]

Scroll down a few months in their “Video” section. They have the edited version.

[@heatheradams9747]

YES!!!!!!

[@meredithclark9585]

Just amazing! Love how he wiped the chills off his arm💖 such a powerful song... That boom boom boom... A timpany drum💖

[@sv8911]

He put the punch in the song, that was meant there all along. So well done.

[@oliviafranzen2959]

That smile you can't suppress when you hear something good.......

[@lynfoster2484]

I close my eyes when this song comes on and let the lyrics take me away. Pure joy.

[@xoites877]

A cover of Simon and Garfunkel, but a GREAT one! When I was your age and heard the original back in the sixties it hit me just as hard and just as deep. :)

[@angelawellborn2281]

Simon and Garfunkel! Yes, the originals.

[@christhomsen3653]

This was my brothers favorite song he passed away at 42 back in April you guys together remind me of my brother and I listening to this song together thanks for doing this guys

[@jessicashenefield1546]

Blessings of comfort. Safe journeys to your brother.

[@sebrinaphelps6341]

Such a moving song. Video with it makes it perfect!

[@theresaboone8322]

The first time I ever loved a cover so much. It gave me chills. Thanks for helping me find it.

[@rogerwhitby433]

I was surprised you guys liked this. I'm older , it gives me hope for the next generation, thank you so much!

[@debyforrester3364]

i love simon an garfunkel's sound of silence, but this version by disturbed hit me so deep to the core. amazin, i could listen to it over an over. his voice is awesome, he actually didnt think his voice was was made to do this. how wrong could he have been. so glad he did it.

[@deborahkehoe7720]

I did the same thing. Just came a cross it now and this is the third time I've listened.

[@jessicashenefield1546]

I grew up with the original, but prefer Disturbed's cover. It's simply next-level. The power behind it... my vocabulary doesn't do it justice.
