    A beautiful cover, and an important PSA attached to it. I educate and advocate about Sensory Processing Disorder and related neurological disabilities, and although our culture is brimming with so-called Autism 'awareness' (you can have SPD without ASD, but you can't have ASD without SPD, by the way), there is very little understanding of what's really going on with the seven senses and four sensory functions as components of how these conditions manifest.

    • @TrueCr1meFanat1c
      @TrueCr1meFanat1c Місяць тому +1

      Yes! I have SPD (never knew that was the name of it until recently) and most people have no idea what I mean when I tell them my senses get very overwhelmed/overstimulated on the regular basis. Unfortunately it’s something I just have to deal with and music is something that helps me a lot. Also why I’m so attached to music and why it’s basically my life

First x that I could cry. And I have that with your music more often crying from your voices and my emotions that come out. Thank you, thank you for helping people unconsciously and being a bright spot. For me at least

I myself suffer from sensory issues, PTSD and Agoraphobia related to my PTSD. Going out into the world is really hard so many times I have tried to go to an event or gathering only to have to leave all together because it was just sensory overload. I am near tears watching this video and seeing the mobile sensory bus I wanted to cry. That is such an amazing Idea!! I love every song you do and the story that is behind your group. Keep it up!

    _The Sound of Silence_
    Song by *Simon & Garfunkel*
    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I've come to talk with you again
    Because a vision softly creeping
    Left its seeds while I was sleeping
    And the vision that was planted in my brain
    Still remains
    Within the sound of silence
    In restless dreams I walked alone
    Narrow streets of cobblestone
    'Neath the halo of a street lamp
    I turned my collar to the cold and damp
    When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
    That split the night
    And touched the sound of silence
    And in the naked light I saw
    Ten thousand people, maybe more
    People talking without speaking
    People hearing without listening
    People writing songs that voices never share
    And no one dare
    Disturb the sound of silence
    "Fools" said I, "You do not know
    Silence like a cancer grows
    Hear my words that I might teach you
    Take my arms that I might reach you"
    But my words like silent raindrops fell
    And echoed
    In the wells of silence
    And the people bowed and prayed
    To the neon god they made
    And the sign flashed out its warning
    In the words that it was forming
    And the sign said, "The words of the prophets
    Are written on the subway walls
    And tenement halls"
    And whisper'd in the sounds of silence

This music was a very good choice, oldies, you know? But....can i suggest something? Sing all this music, differently than the original. Make your version unique. Let us hear all voices in solo, and of course, as well as in group.
    One last thing: i'd love to hear from you sometime, Somebody To Love and Bohemian Rhapsody from Queen, Creep from Radiohead, Everybody Hurts from R.E.M or Let it Be by The Beatles just to name a few....

    I am a huge fan of this song and cringe every time someone does a cover of this because they don't do it justice. I was really skeptical as this is a large group performing a song that was meant as a duet. The young man who started the song caught my attention and as the group joined I was hooked. This is an amazing mix between the Paul Simon's version and Disturbed's version. I would rate this as a close #2 or my favorite versions of this song. Great job to all of you!
