The live recording of the pair singing is beautiful. It’s hard to get a strong sense of the super intricate harmonies. Watch @charismaticvoice react to this. Great breakdown of the technique and power these guys are using.
Myles is a pro, this was David's show and he knew that. Make no mistake David may have a lower timbre but Myles can sing with him all day, he was absolutely holding back.
THE WARNING The first stanza Simon refers to darkness as being his "old friend" that he came to talk with because he was awoken in the middle of the night, of a nightmare that still lingers in his head, that gives his a considerable amount of distress. So bad that the awful visions were still flashing before his eyes as he is awake. Second stanza begins setting the scene in which the dream took place: at night, him walking along the cobblestone road where he stops below the light of a streetlight. The cold chill runs up his back, so he lifts his collar to the "cold and damp." Just then, a blight neon sign lit up, showing that he, in fact, was not alone. But there were "ten thousand maybe more" all gathered in the cold night. The people who are talking, not speaking, are politicians, who are using false words to sway the population to vote for them, never revealing true intentions. The people therefore are hearing are not listening. They are taking these words that are spoken to them in plain value, not examining or putting into depth anything that is said. Because of this, as referred to later, these politicians have formed a government that the people in fact voted for and supported until it began to act as a dictatorship. This seems that Simon is making an inditement to a large government that has taken away the freedoms of its people. A future for America it seemed with the rise of government in world affairs as in entered Vietnam. This "future America" has given Americans everything, and has the power the take it all away, hence the people "bow and pray to the neon god they made." The Silence that is referred to is the silence of the people, afraid to say anything against the government for fear of death or worse. Simon, or whoever has had this dream, tries to bring people to speak out. Saying "Fools, you do not know, Silence like a cancer grows" that as more are afraid to speak, the more control the government takes and the less anyone will stand up to the new government. As all hope is about to be given up, someone steps up and says to the crowd that the future they will hold has been written on the walls of subways and tenement halls. This is because this form of protest can be done anonymously, therefore no one can get in trouble for it. This begins the whispering in the silence of the people, and starts the beginning of a revolt.
Desculpa galera, mas não deu certo não. Vamos separar o ser fan e gostar de qualquer coisa que seu ¨ídolo¨ cante do caramba deviam ter ensaiado mais. Essa música é muito grave pro Myles. Curto muito o trabalho do Myles Kennedy, tenho camiseta e cds do Alter Bridge,mas essa participação não curti não.
@@chrisslater3174 I remember when the original version of this song was new, yes I'm a bonafide antique. This version sounds horrendous, it's nothing but noise. People have long forgotten why songs like this one exist (Temptations: Ball of Confusion is another). People have long forgotten why youth chose to become "Hippies" (tip: it had (or has) nothing to do with tie died clothing you imbeciles). It was REVOLT, it was standing up to "the man" and telling him to shove it. You know nothing of the draft.....how can you ? I didn't hear about this *stuff*.....I lived it. It's shameful that an entire forgotten generations struggle has been watered down to this sh1t.
@@jamesroberts1800 I love that original music can bring uncorrupted memories, and totally get it. I talk only of this modern musical interpretation, and the drama that this version brings for the fan of rock that I am. For me, this is better...for you, sh1t! 😁 It's only a matter of opinion.
Again...the greatest cover ever!
However, I would hasten to add that the guy on the timpani's is absolutely awesome!!!
Sept 1sr this is my favorite song that Disturbed does and Myles is BIG plus!!
As far as remakes go, this has to be at the top of the list and for a live performance, simply incredible! 👏
wow adding his tenor took and added even more dimension to what is already an absolutely great rendition of this song.
this is the best song… ever ❤❤❤
Großartig!!! Ich liebe es und könnte es den ganzen Tag hören ❤
Each of them inspiring the other to give it everything they had. Awesome!
WOW👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Two of my favorites. Love David &Myles!!! ❤
One of the most beautiful performances ever
My favourite version of this classic!! One day I want to experience it in person in order to feel the power in the room. Brilliant!
My favorite ever‼️♥️

Ich liebe diesen Song!❤

Demais a voz de Myles !!!
Super
I'm curious if Paul Simon's ever heard him do the song I think it's much stronger than the original
Paul Simon is on record saying that he absolutely loves this version
♥️♥️♥️
So you have a for sale and madison isotopes
Essa versão é top...
It would be interesting to know what Simon & Garfunkel thought of this remake.
So, all respect to Myles, Disturbed solo is way, way, way better. Myles just adds... noise, rather than silence
Myles is a pro, this was David's show and he knew that. Make no mistake David may have a lower timbre but Myles can sing with him all day, he was absolutely holding back.
Wow. I disagree
Четко! молодцы!!!
They jammin lol. 👍
I wanted the video not the live concert they drowned him out plus video goes great with the song and how he presents.
Vous êtes des usa
Remove the crowd noise and it's great.
David can ... Myles not !
Idk. Listen again X 10
This version does nothing to show the talent of Simon and Garfunkel
Je parle français 😂

Well said.
@@huggybear534 it's about the apathy of mankind to one another
David ate Miles alive...
He was backup dude

No disrespect, but Myles adds nothing!
Your headphones are broken.
I agree. He just made a lot of noise. Disturbed are awesome.
Idk. Listen again and again
Simon and Garfunkel are the only ones that can sing this song. No offense to these gentlemen, they sing well.
Watch Disturbed"s video. Paul Simon even gave credit to where it was due and considered their version the best expression of his song!
It happens occasionally...someone takes a classic and makes it somehow more. Grew up with S&G in the house, but this is better.

When I first heard disturbed sing this, I cried from the simple power of it.
