WE WEREN'T READY!!! Disturbed - The Sound Of Silence (REACTION)

"Disturbed is an American heavy metal band from Chicago, formed in 1994. The band includes vocalist David Draiman, guitarist/keyboardist Dan Donegan, bassist John Moyer, and drummer Mike Wengren. Donegan and Wengren have been involved in the band since its inception, with Moyer replacing former bassist Steve "Fuzz" Kmak and Draiman replacing original lead vocalist Erich Awalt."

This was incredible. Such a moving song, and such a powerful voice to deliver it! If you have anymore mind blowing performances like this you would like to see us react to let us know. Links always help. Thanks friends! See you all on the next one.

[@LeNaInLoVe]

Greetings from Arctic LoVe Islands, trust your doing great, and mini you are doing great 🥰🥰 Hmmm... well, how about DISTURBED** cover of GENESIS* 80's song; LAND of CONFUSION? Would be awzm if you made it a double reaction. The original vs the cover.... 🤔😉 Here are links to make it easier for you in a hectic life. 🥳🎉🎉 *Original Genesis; kzbin.info/www/bejne/ip2lepRur8SAqtU **Upgraded version by Disturbed; kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4eXoIyhfsp6gMU

[@gordon020958]

In case no one else mentioned in any of the comments, David was very sick for this performance, therefore he is sitting. That's how sick he was.

[@sianne79]

Disturbed is not the original artist. That would be Simon and Garfunkle. Although even Paul Simon said that Disturbed did it better.

[@annrabie7988]

Their official music video is even more epic due to the visuals in the video. You get more from the video everytime you see it.

[@roeloftooms]

Someone you want to see is Amira Willighagen. This kid won Holland got talent at the age of 9. With the age of 10 she was invited by Andre Rieu who leads a huge classical orchestra kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6DQXoiwiKl6o6s

[@jwhiteuk]

Not just the best cover of this fantastic song, but arguably one of the best covers of any song ever!

[@dawnmarieallenkent2495]

Give PENTATONIXs Bohemian Rhapsody (if you're familiar with the original by Queen) if you want to hear an "amazing cover"... my challenge to you....

[@Andres64B]

This version is better than Simon and Garfunkel's original. There is no way in hell that Pentatonix did a better version of Bohemian Rhapsody and Queen.

[@trumphatesyou]

Hearts "Stairway to Heaven" tribute to Led Zepplin at The Kennedy Center Honors in front of the remaining members is hands down the greatest cover/tribute ever.

[@LGB120]

​@@dawnmarieallenkent2495 There cover of bohemian rhapsody is terrible.

[@ericbosman2477]

That woukd be Hurt by Johny Cash

[@davidgilman3230]

A powerful and moving performance.

[@joanne2196]

According to what I've read, Disturbed did the cover of Sound of Silence in 2015 from the original song by Simon & Garfunkel in 1964.

[@RissaFirecat]

He was trained as a cantor when he was a youth. This man has an amazing amount of voice control because of his training. How many octaves do you hear him use? This cover is the very best I have ever heard.

[@DrPaul-xf4no]

He was also sick when he sang this. The studio version is great too 😊 ❤

[@marinadewil8959]

Love this version,goosebumps all over👌

[@lisamarie930]

Hank sang Disturbed's cover from 2015..... Grammy nominated

[@kiwigirl8420]

I would have loved to be there in person. He has such a powerful yet beautiful voice.

[@tracybadciong-uq5cg]

When he did this he was really sick, they really didn't want him to sing it, that's why he's sitting down he had a 102 fever I think.

[@larryc3860]

thanks to Simon & Garfunkel for writing and recording this classic over 50 years ago, allowing Disturbed, Pentatonix and others to revisit the message.....it was a warning of an increasingly disconnected society embracing 'silence'........David's interpretation tells us that people still prefer silence to participation in the world.......

[@joenewman6494]

Need to watch the official video now it hits different it will not disappoint. Excellent reaction

[@jeffwellman8347]

David has a great voice and was trained as a Hazzan (Jewish cantor) which allows him to bring a spiritual element to his performance that increases its emotional impact. Disturb will be touring with a band called Jinjer this year. You should react to their song called "Pisces".

[@ruthiewohlforth5464]

Think you were talking about vibrato Jess....lol. Not many people realized he had such a beautiful voice until this song...when you could actually hear his voice...lol...as most of their songs are so aggressive. 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 Mike and Jess.

[@ninajones1175]

It's called vibrato...David's is a Master with his instrument. When he goes big and starts frying his vocals, he is using a wet version to not damage his chords.. Fun fact, he has no tattoos in respect to his grandfather and the generations of Jewish Cantors that he comes from and that he also received his training from. He removes his piercings to go home. All the men in the band are good ones from all I hear. Simon said that the song was much his as David's now....what an epic compliment!

[@brettbrock4626]

He's amazing

[@debihorton6807]

Great background. Love your expressions! You melted!

[@melissayounkman2382]

❤❤❤❤

[@Grumpy_Rabbit]

The polyphonic resonances in his voice are called 'vibrato.' He's a Jewish 'Hazzan' (a superbly trained singer): en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hazzan He was recovering from a respiratory infection during this performance. Personally, I prefer the studio version, partly because the video is so powerful.

[@RNTV]

We will have to check that out. We couldn't tell he was dealing with this at all.

[@thechloechronicles9688]

I go back and forth between live and studio

[@casius00]

The original was a soulful warning to the people of that time and this version is, to me, a protest in response to the fact that we did not heed the warning.

[@methom4091]

Disturbed leaves the others in the dust. When Neil Simon heard David sing it the 1st time he called to tell the song now is theirs' High praise from the author.

[@kenmahoney5255]

Paul simon!

[@rebelbabeconner9064]

React to DISTURBED'S PRAYER, The LIGHT, STRICKEN, bad man, land of CONFUSION, REASON to fight

[@alexandrabarrenbrugge4585]

Hallo you both and all others 😊, you are absolutely refreshing crazy 🤣! Vampires!? 😤😛 We here have a FULL MOON!!! 🌕 WEREWOLFS in the streets 😨! Pah, Vampires, ridiculous! Greetings from Germany and parkinson's sucks alex

[@kingbleh]

Long comment incoming, sorry. If you haven't already you should see how the actual original version by Simon & Garfunkel compares to this version. I've often seen people say S&G's was a warning, and Disturbed's is the anger the warning wasn't listened too. In regards to Disturbed's version, I prefer the official video (studio) version, David sounds just as good (if not better), and there isn't any autotune. There wasn't meant to be any autotune in the live version, but because David had the flu at the time of the performance the producers had turned it on without permission, you can apparently see David looking over at them while it's happening at some moments. The fact he was able to perform that well even with the flu though is just amazing, I just feel the autotuned parts take away from how much better it would have been.

[@Orbitalmercury]

You should do the official music video that version is beautiful too. They're both as good as each other but some differences

[@ritalowrie1296]

Why did we still see the background of the windows and not the clear video?

[@endoraismygma]

Anyone not moved by this performance has ice in their veins. I still feel it no matter how many times I've watched this. I enjoyed watching your reactions 💖😎

[@sonofthesea3298]

David looks like he could be Henks son,doesnt he? 😆5 days ago?! Wooot! KZbin be slacking in keeping me up to date🙃

[@bdmention]

Even Paul Simon prefers this version of his song.

[@denisea871]

Great Reaction. I really like the music video of this version. It's really good. It has more of a story - you should react to that too! It's hard to decide which one I like better. They are both so good.

[@vontastic120]

That was so awesome! I'm in love with his voice and enthusiasm

[@JustMe-er9ve]

Check out Henk Port's version of Sound of Silence

[@RNTV]

We have that up on the channel now. So good!

[@jeffjones6221]

Vibrato is a vocal technique

[@rebelbabeconner9064]

I feel this version deeply

[@Deborah-ni9bj]

Ain't nothing better than this!!!!!!!

[@barbaraheilman321]

I didn't hear Disturbed's version until July of 2023. I just love it and I keep watching it over and over and enjoying watching others listening and chatting about it. When you put the Official Version with its video, it is just amazing how it fits together. It gives me goose bumps every time I listen. I am 78 and not a metal person, and I am thrilled that this came from a heavy metal band. This was right for our generation NOW, in 2023.

[@discussdebate]

Better late than never... 😜 glad you found this!! \m/

[@Oneminutemindfulness]

He had the flu and a fever and they were afraid for him to be standing!

[@robynraynal8810]

Must listen, Disturbed's Hold onto Memories

[@vickibagley4972]

He had the flu when he sang this on Consn.

[@steveb1972]

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

[@altarehkugler4675]

I am absolutely nuts over this!!! It's the only thing that's taken me, obsessively, away from BTS😊I can't quite get enough of it. I'm new to your channel (introduced to you by BTS), and I'm so happy to see you did this song! Thanks for another reaction to something I love!💜

[@marionholder3905]

Nice reaction...but it would be great to see the video properly.

[@RNTV]

Glad you enjoyed the reaction. We do try new things often and here is are reasoning. 1 is copyright, this video was claimed and it took a full month to go through the dispute process. You never know what will flag the system, so it is better for us to try and do things like this. 2 is respect of the original artist or uploader. We aren't trying to offer a replacement to the original. This is a reaction. The focus is on that. We include a link to the original video in the description. We urge everyone to go and watch it if you want to see the full video in all its glory.

[@ShyAnn291]

Every time I see this I can’t believe how sick he was!!

[@Keyboardje]

I don't understand why people reacting to the live version put an immage of the official video in their thumbnails. I myself only watch reactions of the official video because I like that one better, so I find it annoying.

[@patriciarobledo3954]

And when you consider that he was quite ill that night (a pre covid flu), it's even more amazing.

[@lindariley2819]

He was very bad sick yet still performed

[@jeromysmith2486]

I took a brief look and noticed I could not find someone saying the word you were searching for was vibrato.

[@berniesallee5324]

David is also a classically trained vocalist.

[@Bubbaj5683]

David was actually ill at the time of this performance

[@thetulpa]

Welcome to the rite of passage of reaction channels

[@loriprice1518]

Goose~Bumps right!!! I grew up listening to Simon & Garfunkel! This rendition of another Artists message was “BOW Down” total respect, & Grace! David was/is a trained cantor! I’ve seen Disturbed 8 times in concert TOTALLY A TREAT! Plan to see them when they hit Atlanta again Fist 👊 in the air! Give it to me! Lol

[@DeathsAPI]

I’m sorry Conan isn’t even remotely funny…

[@mikeellis3240]

This gives me goosebumps every single time. Another cover song that does that to me is Johnny Cash doing Hurt, a Nine Inch Nails song, just months before he died

[@yaanaallen2303]

Confused, Disturbed released this version 7 years ago, Hanks came out in 2019, who copied who? Paul Simon messaged David and told him he owned the song now. For another treet watch the music video.

[@gorkaimazimazpetrali8913]

and in that live show I had a fever. That shows what a good singer David Draimman is. He can sing in different tones, and the control he has over his voice is brutal. 

[@vanessahunt586]

Hey, I love this,it's so magical, this performance is just incredible 🤘🤘 David draiman can sing anything,one of my favorites 🤘🤘 Please react to more disturbed,you won't be disappointed 💖💖

[@jduncanandroid]

When a singer wavers their voice like that, that's called vibrato... now, sometimes reverb and echo can be added to enhance it, but from the mouth, it's vibrato :)

[@pooperpants4503]

This “old” song, as timely today as in the sixties when Paul wrote this. The performance,,,,,, outstanding and is a call to arms.

[@dawnmarieallenkent2495]

PENTATONIX did it proud as well... jus'sayin

[@ToTheWolves]

What happened to your Nightwish reactions?

[@RNTV]

They will return. We perhaps opened the Nightwish door a little too early. The reaction door all together even 😅. We never expected to recieve over 1000 different requests in such a short time. We were getting a lot more heavier rock leading up to Jess giving birth. Jess wasn't really feeling that type of music was giving the baby good feelings. We decided to put a hold to the rock music for the time being. Now we have just been hit by life again and again as of late. We are trying to get back on our feet. It's definitely not because we don't love Nightwish.

[@theagingbeginner]

You need to see the video!

[@kathytrottier4545]

Wow

[@kimberlyrineer6822]

Have you done Pentatonix version?

[@RNTV]

@kimberlyrineer6822 Pentatonix's label seems to not care for reactors and don't respect fair use law. All of our reactions and our friends who do reactions to Pentatonix have been denied under fair use. We are not in this to become unpaid promoters for any artists. Even artists we love like Pentatonix. The most we've ever made from a reaction is just over $30. There isn't much money in this to keep a channel alive. When an artist's label denies our disputes that number drops to 0 and deters us from making reactions to them. We have tried talking to KZbin about this. We have consulted with copyright lawyers and confirmed our content clearly falls under fair use. We are working on a different reaction style for artists like Pentatonix. Those reactions would only include our reaction to a few key moments from the performance. Not sure how those will be recieved, but it is something we are going to try out.

[@joevil6259]

Kudos to Disturbed . He was the first one to do it and did and excellent job , but listen to this rendition (a South African group)...Sound of Silence by Touch of Class

[@nancyharn1980]

You do know Paul Simon wrote this song and it was released in 1964 by Simon and Garfunkel. Disturbed cover is absolutely the best, but they are definitely not the 1st.

[@shaunjonilionis7387]

Great job both of you. Life changing for real

[@annabeavers9590]

Excellent. That's the same reaction as I had.

[@JeansDolls]

My favourite version…

[@bbransford2891]

It’s called a vibrato

[@eddie56120032003]

the song was originally written by Paul Simon in 1963 about the assignation of President John F. Kennedy

[@TheDNW]

He was sick here too.

[@Kerrelyn717]

Друзья! Что то вы совсем забыли про Димаша и его потрясающий концерт в Алматы! Вы лишаете себя незабываемых эмоций и ощущений! Можно делать реакции сразу на 2-3 песни, как это делают другие реакционеры. Так вы быстрее посмотрите весь концерт и впечатления будут более полноценными. К первой и второй части концерта уже есть субтитры. Скоро будут и к третьей. Пожалуйста, ждём вашей реакции!! Крепкого здоровья вашей большой семье и отличного настроения!

[@RNTV]

Please keep Dimash comments on Dimash videos friend. There are many reasons we don't upload multiple reactions in one video. #1 is copyright. It is hard enough dealing with copyright for one song, if we attach multiple songs to one video it causes even more problems. We are basically making content for free for all time at that point. #2 is time for us. As you can see we are not able to upload regularly. We only have enough time to do a few reactions when we do have time. Unless we make our channel dedicated to only Dimash reactions we just won't be able to do 2-3 in one video. That will be all our time to record going to one artist. There are 31k people subbed to this channel and a lot of them subbed for another artist besides Dimash. It is not fair to want us to only upload Dimash. We have to stick with what works for us.

[@Kerrelyn717]

@@RNTV , спасибо за ответ! Но вы начали реагировать на его концерт и пропали на 3 недели, поэтому мой комментарий вы вряд ли бы прочитали под последним видео с Димашем)) Можно делать хотя бы одно видео в неделю, этого будет достаточно, мы все понимаем, что у вас сейчас совсем мало свободного времени. В любом случае, вы мои любимые реакционеры)) Процветания вашему каналу и побольше новых подписчиков!

[@RNTV]

We shouldn't need to respond to every person asking about 2-3 Dimash reactions per video. There were a lot of people asking us to do this and we addressed it many times. We addressed it in every Dimash Almaty reaction so far in multiple replies and we even talk about it at the beginning of both of our last two Dimash reactions. Thank you for understanding our view on this and the well wishes.
