[@janetreyes84]

People say that Simon and Garfunkel's version was a warning. This version is because we didn't heed the warning.

[@user-ue3vs8ew5h]

And Pentatonix version is about hope. 😊

[@emmylou4444]

To me this version is more of an accusation

[@Montana_wildhack70]

This is about right now and it’s frightening.

[@joannholmes8726]

Yes, indeed!

[@andyc6542]

Stop regurgitating other people’s comments pal. Come up with your own thoughts. Different versions of your exact same comment is on pretty much every other reaction to this song.

[@odinspromise]

Silence has never been so loud, I think that's why Paul Simon gave Disturbed this song. It was a protest back in the days of Viet Nam and now, it's a cry of vengeance against those who didn't listen in the first place. PEACE!!!!!

[@louannlang7471]

not vengeance...what does that solve?? RESPECT of others and UNDERSTANDING that WE CAN ALL LIVE IN PEACE WITH DIVERSIRTY. Everyone wants to point a finger and say YOU or ThEM or THEY are the problems in the world. Vengeance IS NOT PEACE.

[@barbaraantonelli7782]

Paul Simon didn't "give" this to Disturbed. He didn't really know about it until someone told him to listen. Then he gave the highest praise ever from him - he actually told his opinion & congratulated Disturbed. Remember tho, that technology has changed so much in 50 years. (Can't believe it's been that long since I heard this the first time.) Paul would do it much differently if he published it now.

[@seanpatton7406]

​@@barbaraantonelli7782 If it's *"difference"* that you're looking for. Watch 👀 David Draiman sing this Live on Conan. Btw, he had the Flu and insisted going on the stage. Almost sounded better than this version...

[@barbaraantonelli7782]

@@seanpatton7406 Don't need to. Love both of them.

[@TheSilkOrchid]

You made my day. "The loudest silence I've ever heard". This song is a warning that without empathy, understanding and communication, a division will only become wider and wider between people. At least that's my take on the song.

[@nicoleheffelfinger7368]

1000% on point

[@yolandarivera5730]

Yes I agree.

[@JaquelineGoodspeed]

Absolutely.

[@4103MAC]

Yes, and it was never Simon & Garfunklels and it is not Disturbed. They are conduits... the original version was gentler and this version has so much more urgency...its a message from above

[@JaquelineGoodspeed]

@@4103MAC Only to the un.....saved.

[@boat165]

Somebody wrote that Simon and Garfinkle's version makes you think....Disturb's version makes you feel. I couldn't agree more!

[@YayaKto5]

This is my favorite version of Sound of Silence. No comparison to others. 1st time I heard it I was stunned and hooked. Enjoyed your reaction.

[@verapena9465]

I agree it was written for David

[@katherinemashbir7271]

Mine too ❤

[@MC-342]

Wow, that's beautiful. Had me in tears.❤ From what I've heard, that singer is a very nice and down to earth man who loves his fans.

[@nancyevans7946]

Saw an interview and yes very soft spoken, down to earth! Watch what he says about he protects his voice and body!! He is just AWESOME !

[@kathleenholzmeister301]

David is Jewish and was trained as a Kantor.

[@michaelbrehaut4780]

David is one of the most humble men in the industry. God Bless Everyone that is going through a tough time. Just know that there is always someone that will shit and listen. This gets me everytime.

[@scorpio0685]

Yes I agree. After hearing this version, I googled the band & lead singer. Beautiful down to earth man as you said. I saw 1 video where he engages one on one with a fan in the crowd and I just cried at his compassion.

[@kathybelk5478]

I love y’all’s reaction. When you said you feel it in your toes, and the happiness in y’all’s voices and faces. Pure enjoyment 😊

[@VeliGoXtreme]

You're the best!☺️

[@SandraP3796]

Saw Disturbed sing this last year. It was beyond beautiful and David’s voice is so beautiful. Everyone was swaying and singing along. My favorite ❤️

[@kathleenholzmeister301]

Your reactions show that you felt this in your souls. No one can EVER top this rendition.

[@joannholmes8726]

A song for ALL TIMES.

[@claudiacabell]

A GOD GIVEN TALENT ❤❤😢😮!!!

[@EllaSilentDragon]

Paul Simons (from Simon and Garfunkel) songwriting is otherworldly. The original song is angelic. ❤ And Disturbed somehow made it even better. 😊❤ Thank you for your enjoyable reaction. 😂😊❤

[@stevehorn4680]

I've watched people react to this song for a few years now. It hit right with you two. Thank you.

[@cheryla3958]

This was a great cover of an iconic song! I remember the original from the early 60s and now David and Disturbed own this song! They took a folksy pop rock song and turned it into a powerful anthem! Thanks for doing this! Great review and reactions! 🎶🎶

[@jonelmer3518]

" this is the loudest silence that I have ever had in my life!" lol

[@suemoore6445]

Loved your reaction! I could tell that you could really feel the message. Paul Simon of Simon and Garfunkel wrote this in 1963 and after this released in 2015, he posted on his social media that Disturbed now owned this song. I know you’d really loved the latest Disturbed video released in January ‘24, Don’t Tell Me. Ann Wilson of Heart, best female rock singer of all time, is featured on the song. She and David Draiman’s voices together are incredible!!! Worth a reaction. I love Disturbed’s really heavy metal music too, but love the ballads.

[@kellysalinas7478]

From David's first note,both of your faces changed, and you knew this was definitely something different!

[@barbmoody4892]

Best version EVER!

[@johngomillion4872]

powerful song..

Hey guys, Got an amazing song here. One of the best covers of this song. Beautiful and powerful, Davids voice gives me chillzzzzzz. Thanx so much, Peace

[@Firekat9282]

I grew up in the '70s. My brother was a folk singer song writer. I grew up listening to him and his friends playing all these songs. This was always one of my favorites. Go listen to the original Simon and Garfunkel version from 1964. This is the best re-record of it I have ever heard. BTW your statement of this being the voice of silence is SO true, you get it. 💞

[@thenortherner3890]

Its about the rise of TV and Radio and the Adverts for up-and-coming programs and how TV and Radio have become our gods and the neon glow of our TVs on windows from the outside....

Hi Veli Xtreme . great reaction . Good Music Is good Music and it can cross over. I remember how stunned I was the first time I heard Sho Shalosa .

When i first heard this version of this song , i was gobsmacked and hooked. I always loved Simon and Garfunkel version obviously being original but many others have one this song too yet no one compares to disturbed version. So powerful yet beautiful all the same.

This song has lived a long life as simmon and Garfunkel original,, no one has covered it with the intensity that disturbed has,, this is epic version of an old song,, that message still holds,,,,, wonky has made it threw to another generation

OMG, the tissues I've 🤧 gone through since I discovered David Draiman and Disturbed performing their rendition of "The Sound of Silence" on April 29, 2024. That day I have to believe my spirit 🙏 guides (out of the blue) first led me to a cover video by Dan Vasc singing "Amazing Grace" which was phenomenal 👏 and then to the cover video of Disturbed and David Draiman singing this most POWERFUL, EMOTIONAL 😂rendition of Simon and Garfunkels "The Sound of Silence". I'm 75 and was 15 when they released one of the most popular classic songs of our time during the 60's. It is amazing how relevant it is today. Actually I feel it is even more relevant than ever in so many different ways. I've spent days since listening and seeing, you notice I didn't say viewing, the many channel hosts and each of their reactions and have 😢 almost every time. It's funny that more males have gotten teary-eyed than females, just an observation. Thanks from Diane

[@gillianhowlett6012]

Also give a listen to the Touch of Class version... done before Disturbed...

Als,o be sure to watch their live performance on Conan. NOTE: that David Draiman was really sick for the Conan live performance and I heard he was not pleased with his performance, being the perfectionist that he is I can understand why he felt that way. However, the production as a whole was amazing and his performance was EXCEPTIONAL! I loved it. So POWERFUL and EMOTIONAL!

Do DISTURBED'S STUPIFY... THE LIGHT.... PRAYER

[@lesaahrenstein6360]

The sound of silence was written in 1964 by Simon and Garfunkel. It is considered a warning. Disturbance version came out in 2015 and It It represents the anger that we have not heeded the message from Simon and Garfunkel's version. In 2019 released It represents the anger that we have not heeded the message from Simon and Garfunkel's version. In 2019 Pentatonix released their cover of sound of silence. It falls in between as hopeful. I would love to see you react to that as they are an acapella group. Sound of silence is 1 of their most popular videos. To answer the question about the line hello darkness my old friend Paul Simon Paul Simon Said in an interval interview that he would write his music In the background the bathroom Because because of theAcoustics. So when he went in there the light would be off Hello Hello darkness my old friend......Another Video of the sound of silence to react to is Dan vasquez , who is a metal singer. His cover Pretty much follows the pacing and intensity of disturbance. I watch reactions because I want to see the reactors true and honest opinion. Therefore they need to go in completely blind. You should not go in knowing anything about the song except maybe it's his history Because then you're reaction isn't authentic because you will be anticipating or no what direction the song is going to go to. Anton chekhov (Russian) I said that the role of the artist is not to answer questions but to ask questions. So the gentleman in the orange shirt That is the reason why you had the response that you did You want to know where the song You wanted to know where the song was gonna go to so you could prepare yourselves. However that will include your reaction. Please don't ever feel bad about a reaction where You are visually effective. That means that the song has gone and fed your soul, A. soul that did not know it was hungry for thus Comes your reaction and you need to look at it. When Paul Simon heard disturbed version he said it was very very good. I loved your comment about that being the sound of silence... I've seen I've seen reactions to this video many many times No 1 is ever come up with that line and it's absolutely perfect.. Thank you so very much for your reaction

[@Joey-oy9et]

It as a remake from a band in the 1960's.i remembered when it first came out.its nice to know the song lives on.

Not better just different. I love both versions including PTX cover.

[@iwonttell4958]

I believe Simon and Garfunkel wrote this as a warning and reaction to the murder of President John F. Kennedy. I know Paul Simon contacted David Draiman (singer in Disturbed that you just listened to), and told him this is the best version he have ever hear of the song. MASSIVE credit!

[@mtnpeace2]

Sorry guys, not your fault but I could hardly understand your accent. But I could understand your enthusiasm and joy at listening to this rendition of Sounds of silence. Universally understood, this version grabs you by the cajones, makes your heart beat faster and makes you feel better after listening to it. This guy's control of the power of his voice, & almost perfect pitch, while moving through multi octaves is mind bending. This was all while he had the flu and a high temperature. Love it!!!
