He was trained as a classical cantor. I guess people think he just yells. He is actually a phenomenal artist!
Stop talking and play the song!!!!
He doesn't yell, it's part of his style! Some people just don't know talent if it hit them in their face!! This guy is the best male vocalist I've ever heard!!!
@@Deborah-ni9bj I agree!
Ppl don’t understand that most heavier rock demands a real vocalist…. Think we all just grunt scream and act angry but that’s so far from reality
It’s CANTOR. Canter is a horse pace.
No matter how many times I hear this song, I still get all over chills everytime!
Same here every single time
Yes David is classically trained. His father and his grandfather were Jewish cantors. David trained to carry on the tradition. Started training at age 12 and still works with a voice coach that travels with the band. I was fortunate to see them in concert last month!! My all time fave band!!
This is my favorite "version" of "Sound of Silence" mainly because David's voice follows the message and "mood" of each song line perfectly. As a result, the lyrics "move" me more powerfully and emotionally. Also, Anastasia, I loved your analysis, great details and the way you freely expressed yourself!!
This was jaw-dropping
One of the top live performances in music history.
Peace....
I'm quite certain a lot of people weren't aware he was capable of singing like this before Disturbed dropped this cover, but their songs "Remember" & "Darkness" from their Believe album show how he can flex his vocals.
A saw a interview with David about the recording of S.O.S, it took him a shitload of tries to figure it out, but when he got it the band was completely stunned and almost crying. 🙂
I remember hearing this on the radio for the first time coming home from work. I was super impressed by it. I was stunned to find out it was Disturbed that recorded it, being familiar with them already and knowing their hard-rocking style and grungy vocals. David is the man!
Yeah you’re probably right. I saw Disturbed live back when I was in high school in like 2007 and I remember he definitely sounded amazing live, basically studio quality. But it was all very aggressive singing, not like this.
DARKNESS definitely shows his abilities
Actually not even him knew could sing like that, when they decided to make this cover, and to get it done the way they wanted it to sound, he had to learn, practice and apply new ways of singing and techniques he didn’t knew, and obviously wouldn’t use before; he actually became a way better singer because of doing this cover and amplifying his knowledge and thechnics for singing.
This blew me away the first time I heard it. Still hits me every time.
Best cover of any song I've ever heard. Unbelievable
In an interview, David said he usually gets a song in 1 or 2 takes in the studio - but he said this one took around *40 takes*! He and his recording crew listened to each take and made suggestions on how to make it better, until it became the genius that we got. So I guess you could say that he did get instruction on how to sing it, but it was a group effort that brainstormed this masterpiece.
He was a cantor. And he's amazing. 😊
David Draiman was trained as a Cantor. Paul Simon loved this performance so much he not only wrote to Disturbed, but also promoted it on his social media. Something he has never done for a cover of one of his songs.
Trained as a Temple Cantor.
@@adwood201 He's actually never had any classical training as many assume. He did come from family of cantors and is where he could say was trained.
@@Prozak63 His grandfather had trained him to replace him as Temple Cantor and when David went his own way there was a rift between them for many years due to his grandfathers disappointment. They were reconciled not long before his grandfather died. Draiman went into that at some length in an interview which you can find on UA-cam,
@@adwood201 I agree with everything you said. My point was that many think he attended a formal school for training. That's why I pointed out his family history. Not much different than my father getting his degree in mechanical engineering at Princeton. I've never been to a trade school and don't have an ASE certification but I've also been well trained in mechanics...
Paul Simon saw this performance on TV that night. He broke down crying. He added the link to the official video onto his personal web page.
Paul Simon wasn't bad, but music has evolved so much since the original. I'm happy to hear he appreciates this.
One of the best voice reactions I've seen. You go into so much detail about what he's doing, it's great! He tells the story that Simon and Garfunkel wrote so amazingly.
Thank you so much
The real beauty of this performance, he had one hell of a head cold when he performed it....
This song was originally written by Paul Simon and performed by Simon and Garfunkel many, many years ago. It was a huge hit.
The way that David and Disturbed have performed this song, gives it new meaning and makes it more sensitive. Even Paul Simon has commended him on how he adapted the song and brought out it's meaning. Love both versions.....but this is more powerful.
As mentioned, he was very sick when he was on this show. You need to watch the video that was released for this song.
The song was NOT written by Paul Simon. It was written by Bob Dylan.
Bob Dylan wrote the song in the 1960's.
It was written by Paul Simon during 1963/64, not Bob Dylan
@@laruewatson6881 HA! Your Wrong!
@@laruewatson6881 Google is easy to use…
I get chills every time I hear this version of this song. Honestly all the hairs on the back of my neck and on my arms stands on end.
He was sick during this performance and he’s this amazing.
Folks mention the piano and the strings, but that Tympanic accompaniment was masterful!
Definitely trained pronounces his values perfect his life. Singer of perfection
He was a Cantor when he was young. They train very meticulously to sing as a Cantor. He's an amazing singer in many ways
Best version ever. ❤❤❤❤😊😊😊
Fun Fact: David has admitted to being "a bit resentful" about his time at Jewish day schools, but nevertheless became trained as a hazzan and encouraged his family to observe Shabbat.
A hazzan is a Jewish musician or precentor trained in the vocal arts who helps lead the congregation in songful prayer. In English, this prayer leader is often referred to as a cantor, a term also used in Christianity.
wasn't his grandfather the cantor of a major Temple? D has singer's DNA
@@jonathanwobesky9507 great grandfather cantor in the biggest synagogue in Jerusalem.
Hi! Just wanted to let you know that that was not falsetto. David does not need to use falsetto... His range is amazing. :) And I'm glad you enjoyed this so much. I listen to this many many times a week!
I loved your analysis! One of the best reactions I have seen. Spot on. I absolutely love your passion... Rock on girl!
awww thank you so much
Disturbed remember, great great musicians and his voice is over the top unbelievable.
The video for this is a must-watch. It is a powerful visual.
Get chills every time I hear this performance.
Draiman's voice and emotion brings so much more to the lyrics. Astounding performance. He was indeed classically trained. A joy!
Disturbed does a great cover of Genesis' "Land of Confusion"! (check out some early Genesis with Peter Gabriel. Prog at its best)
Most people never realized what amazing vocals David has....UNTIL they hear this song! He can sing anything, and with stunning control !
David Draiman..... a powerful voice that can go from warm baritone to angelic tenor, from clear as a crystal to distortion/vocal fry and back on a dime, which goes straight through you to your very soul! He has a timbre in his voice that I've never heard before........just hauntingly beautiful. An awesome talent. Loved your reaction and your take on the performance Anastasia.
As an FYI, the lead singer, David Draiman had extensive training as a Jewish Cantor.
You might also check out "Reason to Fight" as another example the bands and Dramin's versatility.
Yes he was "Trained" so to say. But I believe it was from his family who were Cantors. Not in an actual music academy.
@@Prozak63 His father was a trained cantor and taught other students.
@@davidkrutsinger5414 Agreed. Kinda what I was trying to say.
@@davidkrutsinger5414 (This is all straight from David's mouth.) His great-grandfather was cantor of the largest synagogue in Jerusalem. David's father was a businessman that went to prison for his dirty dealings. As a freshman David was kicked out of his high school (The Wisconsin Institute for Torah Study) because in an act of revenge he pushed an older boy out a second story window. At 16 David was a heroin addict, and at 18 was found unconscious under a parked car on the streets of Chicago in the dead of winter, wearing only his pants.
Loved the reaction and especially the technical analysis. As a musician and rock vocalist myself, I always appreciate hearing the breakdown of the technical aspects. I learn from these videos and it reminds me to watch for and correct my bad habits I may have picked up along the way. 😆 As for David's voice and this cover - I have watched the music video and live cover probably 100s of times and I get chills and often tears every time. This is simply perfection. On the music video, love the visuals and message - put a whole new appreciation for the lyrics for me. New subscriber here, I look forward to more of your content.
Firstly, it's always nice to see David get the credit he deserves for being a hell of a vocalist. Secondly, there's no need to apologize for getting technical. I can't speak for other people, but I know that I look for reactors who can break down music/vocals on a technical level so that I can learn more about music.
Also, if you want to see another performance on a talk show from a band that I would never have expected to be on a talk show, check out "Familiar Taste of Poison" by Halestorm on the Jimmy Fallon show. Lzzy Hale absolutely kills it.
amazing voice. just unearthly.
For your entertainment: also watch the version with Myles Kennedy
David Draiman's performance was flawless for me. Enjoyed your reaction!
It is so awesome to watch people who are vocally trained experience this absolutely incredible performance. Just watching your face react to each vocal gift that is hidden throughout this unexpected cover of such a classic song. David Draiman is indeed a very very trained vocalist. He has worked on his instrument for many years. He is every inch a professional. I love it. I love his music. I love his range. I loved watching you experience this. It was awesome. Thank you for sharing!! ❤️
David was extremely sick (notice he is sitting/leaning on the stool the whole time). The producers added a small amount of autotune and David was pissed. Amazing performance, especially when you know more of the story.
PS he was trained as a cantor I believe.
I also heard that David did this so his family that wasn't really into the harsher songs, had something to listen to.
Could you point me towards any video or article where this comes from. I keep hearing these fact repeated on these UA-cam comments but I am trying to read or listen to where they come from.
Thank you in advance!
@@jamiemacdonald436 I’ll search for one later. Not at my computer right now.
Really
Here is a link where he mentions he was unwell. It’s in an interview as well, but I have found that.
@@jamiemacdonald436 ua-cam.com/video/YYOUyU_FzMI/v-deo.html
Great song, great cover, great reaction and great voice….Congratulations!
This is not their song. It is a cover by Simon and Garfunkel from 1964.
David is classically trained. He is phenomenal.
He had a cold and still sang awesome
David is classically trained.. Performed this with a nasty heady cold. Respect.
In the Dutch TV programme Beste Zangers episode 1 from the 2019 series Henk Poort sings this version to Floor. Floor taught him how to growl two hours before the show. He was worried that he might never get employed as an opera singer again once people had heard him growl.
I think Henk's version are at least as good as Disturbed's - at least!!
Here is the link
ua-cam.com/video/q_BJaM-UrXc/v-deo.html
He was sooo sick still showed up to perform!!!! TOTALLY AWESOME!
Oh yes, he is classically trained! He actually teaches people also. That's how his beautiful voice is lasted all of these years and will continue!
Good reaction. I just found this song in early July, 2023. I thought it was excellent, especially their Official Video with words, pictures, and vocals.
Equally surprising is that you have never heard this version of this song before. The official video has somewhere in the area of 800 million views and can be heard on radio stations everywhere.
Fantastic reaction love and respect God bless 🙏 from the UK 👍👍👍👍👍👍🌟😀😀 amazing 👍.
Great cover reaction. To me Simon and Garfunkel the original writers and performers were telling us back in the 60’s when I first heard the song to get our shit together or the future won’t be pretty and David’s version is saying oh well the shit has now hit the fan!!!!! Just saying. So says Austin Tx!!!! 😍😍😍🍸😎
This! Feels like the original is a protest song but also melancholy. 60 years later and no change.... Angry feels right!
The original song is from 1964.
Simon & Garfunkel.
I love both versions...
The official music video for this cover is awesome as well. The visuals add another layer.
Anastasia Luna, I just subscribed to your channel. I am delighted to see your depth of your analysis of the performers, in this case Disturbed.
Thank you for helping us learn more about voice!
There was a song on their second album called Darkness it was the very first time i heard David's clean voice that was an amazing song also
You're definitely a rockstar too.
David is one in a million.
Anastasia, you need to listen to his Album, Evolution. Fantastic Album.
There is
" Hold Onto Memories" A tear inducing song
"A Reason to Fight" A song about fighting addiction and depression! My favorite since I fought depression and alcoholism. Sober for 22 & a half years now!
"Already Gone"
I really like your song that you were playing at the beginning!
He also did a cover of Sting's song " If I Ever Lose My Faith In You"....which is amazing!
What's great is that he said he preformed this song while feeling ill... You might say he was down with a sickness... He still preformed really well.
A Master Class of singing. And this after 30 years of singing Metal!!
ummm he never once goes into Falsetto as you state at the end his range IS that broad ... He is sitting because he was Down With The Sickness... ( the Flu they say)... I know you were truly blown away because 2 or 3 times you use the F word for such a formal setting because like everyone you cannot help but get lost in the song... Truly a trained voice - On Loan From God...
Disturbed and Myles Kennedy Houston Texas live singing The sound of silence 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
Cool version of a classic. I too was amazed.
Just want you to know, he sang this while he was ill from flu, but wanted to still go on. AND refused auto tune
David comes from a multi generational line of Cantors and was trained traditionally in his youth. When he started metal he trained with Melissa Cross to do his growl and not hurt his voice.
This was a good performance, but I like the official video more because the visuals add so much more meaning to the words.
129 Million views so far on YT for Disturbed's version of "Sound of Silence" at the Conan show. 781 Million views for the Disturbed original video. I'm always surprised that obviously so many people interested or act in Rock and Metal music doesn't take notice of it though.
Perfect. Yep, that’ll do it.
Not only was this epic because of his performance, it’s also epic because he was actually sick.
Reading through the comments, I'm glad I'm not playing a drinking game every time I read the word 'cantor' -- I'd already be passed out.... :)
This performance is a whole journey. My son has seen him perform this in concert twice and says it's still amazing.
I know amazing....poor guy had a cold too. David was a cantor... in church... I love the growl its him send that mssg... You need to see the official video Just amazing. You
have too see him do Of I ever lose my faith....
Then remake of Genesis lamd of Confusion, Ten Thousand fists in the air.
Ohh girl I am almost 60.
No most don't know my immortal, Amy"s amazing voice....
Great reaction, will check out what else you have done.
Cheers🍷
I've binged a lot of reaction channels listening to this song today to get a feel for other peoples reactions to it and of them, I've only subbed to you and one other and that's for the exact same reason.
When I see you EXCITEDLY talking about parts of the song, stopping, replaying, talking about it over and over, that shows to me that you're into the song, that you know what you're talking about and you're PASSIONATE about it and that's what I love to see.
Don't change this, keep this level of love and commitment to the reacts, it's things like this that people want to see because through you we get to feel the same level of excitement that we all felt the first time hearing this song. At 2:42 I can bet I know exactly what was going through your head at that moment. "wait what? Oh my god, wow!" because that's the feeling we all got at this song for the first time (I remember going "pft, Disturbed doing sound of silence, yeah right." to a friend who showed me this and I got laughed at for the "oh my god" face lol)
David had extreme training to become a cantor in the Synagogue and his vocal range is amazing! ps Watched your "Winter" video, you are great....and gorgeous!!
Great reaction! I can never get enough of these reactions. This version to me not only highlights David's voice but let's the instruments be the focus, the original video let's you visually see the story. You should check that out as well. Other songs I'd love to see a reaction to is A reason to fight and hold on to Memories. Really showcases David's beautiful voice. So much emotion and not bad on the eyes either lol
Let’s not forget David was sick, a cold I believe, for this performance. One of the most powerful versions of a song I know
102 temp and the flu!!!!!
he had been hospitalized the night before, hence sitting still on a stool.
David is a trained Cantor. Please check out Inside the Fire (heavier). More of the ballad side is Hold on to Memories, A Reason to Fight, The Light, Remember. Anything they do is awesome!!
Yes he was classically trained. This is in my top 5 favorite songs.
I didn’t know Disturbed or any metal bands, before I saw this video.
“Very technical. Very good.” Yes.
Wow you are Amazing. A Beautiful Lady and knows what your talking about. Will Check out your Channel. And I think you have the Most Beautiful Name. I've been Mesmerized by the name since I learned about the Princess her and the Tsar Nicholas ll. Sad story.
He is classically trained Jewish Cantor. Hè was also very sick with the flu during this performance. His brother, Benjamin lives in Israel & is a ambient musician.
Great reaction!!! You need to listen to the song David Draiman wrote after taking his young son to the the movie Coco. It's called Hold On To Memories. Beautiful and haunting......I'm 70 yrs old and discovered Disturbed in 2018.......I've requested in advance to have this played at my funeral (in the not so near future). If you make the decision to react to this video find the video of them singing live in concert and be prepared to shed tears.....so have a box of tissues close at hand! ❤️🎧❤️
David Draimen was classically trained. He was also very sick with the flu on this live show. That's why he was sitting through the whole performance. He felt too weak to stand.
it's brilliant that you know all the technical stuff,,, but you seemed not to hear the thought prevoking lyrics,, this song has such a powerful message,, still your vocal knowledge is Amazing,, Thank you...............
Nope, haven't heard their other songs, but I know and love this one.
His vocal coach was Melissa Cross, from what I understand, see is the premier metal vocals coach.
David has a high level of professionalism and years of performance experience. He also was trained as a hazzan (Jewish cantor) which I think allows him to connect with the spiritual aspects of the song to induce an emotional reaction to the song.
Listen to The Light, No More, Hold Onto the Memories which is a ballad also. And listen to A Reason to Fight. All so good. I pre-ordered their new album. Came out on Nov 14. Can't wait till it arrives!
As far as I'm aware he's classically trained. David Draiman is one of the dest vocalists in metal. Give Darkness from their first album a listen to. It's like early 2000s.
I really like this live performance. I like this version even better then the studio version
The thing which impresses me the most, is how anyone could listen to Simon & Garfunkel's amazing folksie original from back in the '60's and believe they could make something equally amazing (such as we've just listened to) out of it. Apparently, the first time Paul Simon heard Disturbed's version of his iconic song, he was absolutely blown away by it, and you can find no stronger validation from anyone, anywhere than that. Lovely reaction, thanks.
As a long time fan of Disturbed I have to recommend "A Reason to Fight" Epic song. "The Light" is also a great one as well.
He was sick and sitting down
Makes it more impressive
awsome male vocalist..disturbed is arguably the best cover band out they have done a few all awsome...thank you for the react....look into more of there covers...
Perfection At It's Finest
I saw an interview where he called that raspyness "distortion", and that he has trained hard to be able to apply it in a safe way, even adding it to his vibrato.
I've been listening to them since the beginning and had heard bits the whole time that he can sing with the best of them or better.. here he and disturbed are just getting better and better..
His grandfather was the cantor of the largest synagogue in Jerusalem. David was trained to be a cantor. At first, he wasn't sure about doing this cover. He hadn't tried to sing like this since he was 18. To say that he was pleased is an understatement.
I thought he was standing but at the end you can see the stool he sitting on the legs sitting down and singing amazing
A very nice reaction and video. I've heard this version of the song many times, and still enjoy it every time I listen. Additionally, I'm not terribly familiar with metal music (my profile picture hints at another interest), but as someone with no discernible musical talent whatsoever, I can appreciate the work you, Disturbed, and other musicians put into their craft.
Great reaction. Some more ballads by them are If I Ever Lose My Faith in You, Hold on to Memories
The words paint a picture in my mind...... His voice and the music accents the direction of the lyrics.
