When Paul Simon heard their version of his song, he basically said that that's it, it's THEIR song now. The highest praise a master songwriter could give to a band covering his work.
I don't agree at all, the original will always be the best as it was written as a haunting melody, there's too much aggression in the Disturbed version.
@@geraldharkness8830 I think you'll find I'm in the majority when it comes to this opinion pal and unless you have some kind of global poll data on the issue you have no basis to assume what you're assuming.
David Draiman dug deep and mentioned he surprised himself when he did this cover, it is my favorite cover of this song by anyone by far. Love your Reaction =D
Yes they are incredibly powerful instruments. The fact that he was singing so close to them blew my mind. But then I’m sure he had in ear protection going on. They add such depth and emotion to any arrangement. Absolutely love it.
Well this is one of the greatest and best songs of all time, and nobody does it better than original arttest Simon And Garfunkel. But then whatever makes you quiver and shake also makes this music wonderful, as the pleasure of the mind supercedes everything, and you definitly give my mind much pleasure, Thank You,,,
THE FIRST TIME I HEARD THIS COVER I WAS DRIVING VERY LATE AT NIGHT THROUGH THE EVERGLADES IN FLORIDA, FULL MOON, TOP DOWN, NOT ANOTHER CAR ON THE ROAD, AND THIS SONG CAME ON THE RADIO. I TURNED THE VOLUME WAY UP. IT WAS A REALLY MAGICAL EXPERIENCE!
I was going home at 11pm and just played it on spotify while walking alone in dark and quiet ,, very exhausting day after work ,, and i feel relieved ,, thats the first time i heard this version ,, and i fell inlove with it,, And after a year i played it with my wife and she love it ,, My wife is in training now ,almost 3years without seeing each other and when i play these song ,, i missed her so much
David was sick the night he performed this. They asked him if he wanted to cancel, and he said he didn't want to disappoint the audience who was expecting him. He is the consumate performer.
I have listened to this song countless times and about 4:15 the big chills start , hair stands up on my arms...it gets me everytime. I think this is one of if not the top soul reaching gut wrenching song ever imo! I love David's voice it's so pure and clear it's magic. I like your reaction ,it looks like you are on the verge of tears a few times.I paused it and now can't wait to see your reaction when he kicks it up a few notches!
You can really see this version has moved you. It's like we get to see the musical journey you are going on whilst listening to it. I figure you stopped the track when you did to regain on the inside. Its GREAT TO SEE !!
They are Timpani Drums Bisscute. David Draiman... A powerful yet soulful voice that can go from warm baritone to angelic tenor, from clear as a crystal to rasp/distortion/vocal fry and back on a dime, which is incredibly difficult to do. He has a timbre in his voice that's just hauntingly beautiful and has pure tonal properties to it! An awesome talent. Try some more Disturbed please! Loved your reaction Bisscute.
I just saw this Conan show, I had not heard of them. You used the same word I did, hauntingly gripping and I kept playing it over and over. I almost 70 years old and I added him to my list of my heart and soul music list. 😊
Paul also added the connection on his own Social Media pages - can't get better kudos than that. Personally I think Disturbed's arrangement is better than Simon & Garfunkel's version as, in my opinion, this is not a 'nice' song it is a warning song BUT don't get me wrong I loved S&G's version when it came out in 1963/4 but at least with David Draiman's words in the song are more understandable. 🇦🇺🇦🇺👍👍🇦🇺🇦🇺
I love that David's voice is so fluid, and seems relaxed in all of his ranges. Even when he frizzes. I can't sing well, but my ears are (too) sharp. Pretty, and pretty powerful. Nice.
Paul Simon said in an interview this is disturbed song now one of the highest attributes you can receive when doing a cover song this version matches the emotion behind the lyrics of the song where as the original seemed to be to cheerful of a tune
Yet another example of how the best voices can be found in heavy metal. Geoff Tate (Queensryche), Kip Winger (Winger), David Coverdale (Whitesnake), Brittney Slayes (Unleash the Archers), Floor Jansen (Nightwish), Simone Simons (Epica) all possess incredible voice you should explore.
Excellent Choice. Good reaction. David Draiman comes from a long line of Jewish Cantors and even started to train as one himself. He brings the musical skill and spiritual feel to this song.
Finally…someone who͎ reacted to this song and did not try to analyze it !!! You can see it in her facial expression..her heart felt this…the true reaction !!!! subscribed !!!!!
If no one has answered your question about what those drums are called, they are called tympanies. Nice reaction Bisscute, it is a very amazing arrangement.
Just a few days ago, the vocalist here - David Draiman - tweeted that The Warning and Plush gave him hope. "Young powerful women playing real instruments and writing and playing songs the entire rock genre can be proud of." *The Warning* is 3 sisters whose music has roots in classic rock, with grunge, punk, and other elements mixed in. Try 'Evolve' or 'Disciple' or 'Animosity' for some of their new stuff.
DAVID HAS A VOICE THAT GRABS YOU SOUL PULLS IT OUT HOLDS IT IN HIS HANDS AND MAKES YOU TAKE NOTICE OF WHAT HE IS SINGING YOU GET GOOOOSEBUMPS AS HIS SONGS TOUCH YOUR INNER BEING "HE IS AN ANGEL AND A DEVIL ALL IN ONE" ALSO I JUST WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW THAT DAVID WASN'T HAPPY WITH THIS PREFORMANCE BECAUSE HE WAS VERY ILL AND WAS ADMITTED TO HOSPITAL THE NIGHT BEFORE NEEDED IV ETC HE WAS VERY ILL WITH THE FLU, SORE THROAT AND HI TEP BUT HE DISCHARGED HIMSELF THE NEXT MORNING (DAY OF PREFORMANCE) BECAUSE HE DIDN'T WANT TO DISAPPOINT AS YOU CAN SEE HE WAS SITTING AS HE STILL HAD HI TEMP AND SORE THROAT AND DIDN'T FEEL SAFE TO STAND AND AS YOU CAN HEAR HE WAS REALLY CONTROLLING HIS VOICE BECAUSE OF SORE THROAT BUT WHAT A BEAUTIFUL PREFORMANCE "SPEECHLESS" AS EVERY PREFORMER SAYS "THE SHOW MUST GO ON" AND DAVID DID I HAVE ONLY KNOWN OF DISTURBED FOR ABOUT TWO YEARS WHEN I LOST MY FRIEND MY SOULMATE MY HUSBAND OF 30YRS SUDDENLY TO AN AGGRESSIVE BLADDER CANCER AND MY SPECIAL NEEDS SON WANTED TO PLAY THIS SONG AT HIS DAD'S LIFE CELEBRATION CREMATION SERVICE WE DID AND THERE WASN'T A DRY EYE IN THE CHAPEL BECAUSE EVERYONE UNDERSTOOD THE SONG IN THEIR OWN WAY BUT......

As a child, thanks to my mother, I listened to this song sung by Simon and Gafunkel and I always liked this song. I heard this performance a few years ago. And in my humble opinion, it is much better than the original, which is also delicious. Here it is a growing tension from the first notes. A wonderful voice... And a very eloquent title... Great song, brilliant performance. Unfortunately, this song will always be associated with the events of a few years ago, when during a WOSP concert, the mayor of Gdańsk was murdered on stage. This song performed by Disturbed was a tribute from the city's citizens to the president. Great great song. Mind-blowing!!! PS. Sorry for my English :)
Disturbed will always be one of my favorite groups. David Draiman is such a cool vocalist. Disturbed does several covers that they do well. There’s this one, Land Of Confusion(Genesis cover), Shout(Tears For Fears cover). I think you could do any song from Down With the Sickness and not go wrong. dropping Plates, Stupified, Down With The Sickness, The Game, 10000 Fists, Stricken
A less known one I didn't even know about until recently is their great cover of 'Midlife Crisis' if you haven't heard it yet. For those that enjoyed this 'Sound of Silence' be warned it is a bit more 'traditional' Disturbed ua-cam.com/video/Lnr7zD_V-YI/v-deo.html
BTW - he was sick during this performance.. Yeah, don't be fooled.. Yes, they would rock your house. Listen to their own song on the REVOLUTION album entitled "Uninvited Guest". Another beautiful ballad.. 🎼🎶🤘
I enjoyed very much watching this with you. So here is something you may not know: Paul Simon wrote this song while sitting in the dark on his bathroom floor. It was the night after Robert Kennedy was assassinated. Upon hearing this version of his song, Paul contacted David and told him "This is your song now." David was very gracious to accept such a rare honor. The official video, filmed in black and white, is a lot made tribute to this song that is not to be missed! ❤️
"and the people bowed and prayed to the neon god they made" Truer and more poignant words have never been heard. "People talking without speaking, people hearing without listening". I read where a commenter said "That you get the feeling Simon and Garfunkel's version was a warning to us to not stay on the path we were on. Disturbed's version was a cry out in anger because we did not heed the warning.
For me this song is about how we praise technology and intelligence but have forgotten the importance of wisdom and the things in life that matters are drowned in the noise "the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls and tenement halls", that sentence says so much, there is so much wisdom to be found all around us, but it is drowned in the wells of silence
WOW...................Even the audience on the show did'nt make a sound during this song..................How can anyone stop this song to talk? God is sending a Powerful Warning to ALL OF US.................And David is singing from the Heart with emotion in every word.........Beautiful Song..........
disturbed lead singer David Draiman said in an interview that Normally spends at lest 5 mins in a studio but for this one song he said he spent 3 hours in the studio and that he had to use techniques that he hasn't used in a long time since he was young and he was sick on the Conan show
Draiman has been in the profession for decades. If you look at his early years you'd see a guy that looks completely different. I think he gets better with age.
I was watching reaction videos to this track more than a year ago I think? And they are still being made and I think it’s amazing! Can’t believe it but I cm totally see why at the same time!!
The kettle drums are some of the best dramatic tones in my kit, if you use them at the right time. This was added at the perfect time, to make a point. I have the windchills, gong, the all famous cowbell and other eye candy in my kit. Most of which is just that eye candy only being used once in awhile for certain songs. But the kettle drum is always good for darker tones, it brings the emotions up and gets everyone to pay attention, Be Safe!
David Draiman, the lead singer, has taken Opera lessons. FYI, his vocal coach is Melissa Cross, not sure if you've heard of her or not. She has taught MANY MANY rock stars to perfect their singing tecniques.
Biss, So happy to find your reaction to this amazing gem. "Timpani or kettledrums (also informally called timps) are musical instruments in the percussion family. A type of drum categorised as a hemispherical drum" - After watching many of your reactions to movies, I love that I have a new wave to peruse! As with the movies, always stay honest and the clicks will follow!
Drums are Timpani. Many timpani can change pitch accurately w/ the use of a foot pedal. New suggestion: Queensryche - Take Hold of the Flame live in Tokyo 1984 (another great vocal performance. (and the band too).).
Ohh my dear sweet biscute I so wished you would have seen his music video on this same song, it's even more beautiful and powerful than you can imagine!, even if you don't do a reaction on it I highly recommend you see it as it will blow you away!
Can't believe I missed this reaction earlier. You mentioned peaceful, this song literally tears silence apart by the message and power, and Disturbed took this classic to another level
I have a vocalist you need to react to, she was 15 yrs old when the video was recorded on a Russian TV competition, she had won the previous season and this song is on the winners version called “You are Super”. Her name is Diana Ankudinova singing “Wicked Game” a cover song by Chris Issac. Loved your reaction! Thanks🙏🏼🌹
04:50 I'm sure this question has already been answered, but JIC it has not: those big drums are called timpanis, two or more kettledrums. I personally liked to call them "thunderdrums," LOL. A name I came up when I was a little kid many YEARS ago when I too didn't know what they're called.
Thank you for watching the video, It means a lot to me .

@Ben Mason. Truth
I don't agree at all, the original will always be the best as it was written as a haunting melody, there's too much aggression in the Disturbed version.
where do these copy paste fake facts come from? just like how people say nine inch nails said hurt is johnny cash's song now.

You did feel it in his singing.
It is a spiritually moving song.
This performance was an Immortal Moment caught on video.
The drums are Kettle Drums, also known as Timpanis
And incredibly loud lol Get goosebumps every time!
Yes they are incredibly powerful instruments. The fact that he was singing so close to them blew my mind. But then I’m sure he had in ear protection going on. They add such depth and emotion to any arrangement. Absolutely love it.
I used to make these drums in North Carolina.
Are kettle drums and tympanies synonymous? I thought that they were.
One of the most expensive percussion instruments

WHY ARE WE YELLING

I'm jealous of that experience
I was going home at 11pm and just played it on spotify while walking alone in dark and quiet ,, very exhausting day after work ,, and i feel relieved ,, thats the first time i heard this version ,, and i fell inlove with it,,
And after a year i played it with my wife and she love it ,,

David was sick the night he performed this. They asked him if he wanted to cancel, and he said he didn't want to disappoint the audience who was expecting him. He is the consumate performer.
well, that and he got through it by doing it sitting down.
I love your reaction. Very genuine. Listen to Down with the sickness to see what Disturbed really sounds like. They are a metal band
Love this

... and the German word would be "Kesselpauken" or short "Pauken".
Or "kettle drums"
David was super sick with flu when he did the Conan show...he is incredible!!!
One of the greatest message songs ever written, preformed by one of the greatest expressionist of music who ever sang a song, period.....

Might easily be the best sung song I've ever heard,Ever!!

Song minds me of my tour in Bosnia in the 1990's. Cuts my soul.

Is a deep message in a song 🎶 the sound Of silence.
I think this is the first time I have heard someone describe this as Holy... I love it. Thank You.
When they did that performance on Conan the singer David Draiman had a near 103 degree fever.
literal goosebumbs....wow!!!
For me this song is about how we praise technology and intelligence but have forgotten the importance of wisdom and the things in life that matters are drowned in the noise
"the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls and tenement halls", that sentence says so much, there is so much wisdom to be found all around us, but it is drowned in the wells of silence

Fan of DISTURBED here. Nice reaction Ms. Gorgeous 🥰. Godbless.
Thank you! 🤗
YAY LOVE THIS VERSION HE IS EVEN BETTER HERE THAN ON A RECORDED VERSION
I think it was very cool when David Draiman stopped a concert recently to comfort a scared girl in the audience. Good dude.
Also in "Disarm" by The Smashing Pumpkins, timpani is so impressive. And, in "Also sprach Zarathustra".
The kettle drums are some of the best dramatic tones in my kit, if you use them at the right time. This was added at the perfect time, to make a point. I have the windchills, gong, the all famous cowbell and other eye candy in my kit. Most of which is just that eye candy only being used once in awhile for certain songs. But the kettle drum is always good for darker tones, it brings the emotions up and gets everyone to pay attention, Be Safe!
David is a classically trained singer who sings in a metal/rock band (Disturbed)
That´s why this song is so great. It´s all about to do something unexspected.
You are right
At your first break. "This is so peaceful." Methinks, oh boy you're in for a ride!
I love that you described it as "holy," because that is exactly how I feel.
we have great taste

Drums are Timpani. Many timpani can change pitch accurately w/ the use of a foot pedal.
New suggestion: Queensryche - Take Hold of the Flame live in Tokyo 1984 (another great vocal performance. (and the band too).).
Music hits your soul! ❤
Ohh my dear sweet biscute I so wished you would have seen his music video on this same song, it's even more beautiful and powerful than you can imagine!, even if you don't do a reaction on it I highly recommend you see it as it will blow you away!
Beautiful reaction. Holy is a very good description. He is almost reverent in his approach.
He is a classically trained Jewish Cantor. He was also very sick with the flu during this performance
Can't believe I missed this reaction earlier. You mentioned peaceful, this song literally tears silence apart by the message and power, and Disturbed took this classic to another level
You're beautiful to look at which goes together good with this beautiful song
David is a classically trained vocalist as well as a trained cantor in the Jewish faith as a child.
David draiman baby. He can sing in any freakin key he wants. You should hear his heavy stuff with disturbed. They rock hard.
For sure will , keep your eyes open for tommorow
@@BisscuteReacts Awesome, I look forward to it. I promise you won't regret it. Personally I think their song PRAYER is something you would get into.
I have a vocalist you need to react to, she was 15 yrs old when the video was recorded on a Russian TV competition, she had won the previous season and this song is on the winners version called “You are Super”. Her name is Diana Ankudinova singing “Wicked Game” a cover song by Chris Issac. Loved your reaction! Thanks🙏🏼🌹
I love the way you react, so natural..
Most genuine reaction I may have seen
Thank you it really means a lot to me
It's about what it's like to be alone in a crowded room. Something I've felt my whole life.
I Love this Group 😎😎💪🤘
Absolutely amazing!
Holy is actually a good way to describe it, I believe David(I think that's his name) was trained as a church vocalist
3:54 she fell in love lol
Disturbed is a heavy metal band. David is a classically trained vocalist.
Imagine he would not be sick, it would beyond incredible
04:50 I'm sure this question has already been answered, but JIC it has not: those big drums are called timpanis, two or more kettledrums. I personally liked to call them "thunderdrums," LOL. A name I came up when I was a little kid many YEARS ago when I too didn't know what they're called.
You would like their song Hold On To Memories, especially with the video.
What was amazing is I just now saw this...good stuff as always young Lady.
It is said that David was sick AF when it was recorded. He still nailed it
I have to agree
Such a huge powerful voice
