Music Teacher Reacts | DISTURBED - The Sound of Silence
As I state very quickly in this video, I had done a live version of this before. You had all suggested that I get on the original video immediately and so after a long time.... here we are haha.
Perhaps to me "immediately" is often misunderstood but at least we made it!
This original compliments the song so damn well it has me a little taken aback as I write this. What an astounding and excellent way for us to cap off the video than to just relish in its beauty.
Sending love,
-DJ

Thanks to our amazing Templar family!
Not only is David one of the best singers alive today, but he is also humble and kind. I have watched several interviews with him and I am extremely impressed. I have worked in the mental health field for over 12 years, primarily in crisis services and Dvid is such a great advocate for mental health.
Everybody talks about David's voice, but lets show some love for the arrangement, the instrumentation, and the execution of the entire song. The strings are gorgeous, the guitar is subtle yet striking, the piano sets the tone, the timpani set the mood and David's voice leads the charge.
There's a video out there of David Draiman stopping a concert to comfort a little girl he scared during a Disturbed show. It's really beautiful.
I saw that also. Not only is he an amazing singer, he is also a great orator and has great insight.😊
Yes, so heartfelt ♥️ and touching.
I’ve heard this many hundreds of times, I cry every time ! It is so perfect !
Has anyone noticed that every verse gets louder? That is what makes this version so spectacular!
The visuals supported the lyrics perfectly.
Exactly! While I can appreciate the live version and the job that David did (even while sick), the visuals in this video bring the song home.
Much prefer this version. David has such an amazing voice. Great reaction !
That gives me chills every time I see it. It's so powerful. And the way David puts so much strength and power into his vocals is something I've never heard anybody else do. Love this.
Just love he acoustic guitar coming in towards the end, just adds so much to the song.
I appreciate the love you showed the rest of the band as well.
I'm so glad that you finally got to enjoy the video with us!
David Draiman... one of the best male vocalist's on the planet imho. His voice is so rich and full. If you listen, he can actually put vibrato on distortion, which is extremely difficult to do... the man has unbelievable power and control of that beautiful voice! Loved your reaction and commentary.
I love your understanding of the song...
David and the band write many songs to help prevent addiction and suicide. They are fully committed. Other fantastic songs are "Hold On To Memories," "The Light," and "A Reason To Fight." David can sing anything, those songs are a beautiful example of His talent and the band.
His voice is so beautiful here, even better than the Conan version. The passion is still here, but it doesn't sound like he is ruining his voice.
The Conan performance had autotune added, which is where the weird quality to his voice in that performance came from. Draiman asked the Conan sound team specifically not to do that, but because he was so sick they didn't trust his voice, so they ignored him and did their standard setup.
He was ill on Conan so would sound different
David was sick during the live performance and still sounded amazing. However, the video and its visuals are the best, in my opinion.
This is the first time I've heard this version, but I am very familiar with this song. I have goosebumps, it's so good. His voice is amazing.
I can’t get enough of this
I’ve watched this video countless of times. Oh boy it still gives me the chills.
Now you should go for the Trifecta and react to this version of #TSOS by Disturbed featuring Myles Kennedy [Live in Houston]. You get the awesomeness of Disturbed's version with Myles Kennedy harmonizing.
As much as I enjoy the live versions the video just hits different.
He is amazing. I listen to this every day he’s amazing.
My favourite version of this song, I think the words hit better than S&G. It's been a while since you did any Home Free, im loving their latest Remember Me, it's an original by Austin Brown, maybe do a catch up, please 🏴
Loved your commentary pointing out things that ai hadn't realized. I would love to hear your take on a couple of Adam Lambert live. Who Wants to Live Forever with Queen at Isle of Wright and his Cover of Cher's Believe at the Kennedy Center Honors.
You look like that fabulous actor.. can't remember his name but, he's played in a lot of movies (Hunger Games) and has unfortunately passed...
Philip Seymour Hoffman!! Had to look it up!!
Huge compliment!!
Ok, watching now...
I've watched no less than 30 reactions to this.. since yesterday! Absolutely love his power!
Him and some Dave Vasc reactions!! Both freaking incredible!!
A comment I have read about this cover is, the Simon & Garfunkel original was a warning about not connecting while this version shows the anger that the warning has been ignored as we slide into our cellphones & apart from the people sitting right next to us. Great reaction & breakdown.
I'm much much Love this version over the live version. To me the visuals Just like another member of the band. When Paul Simon heard David sing his song his song meant to sing it. On a side note David Originally went to school to become a cantor in the Jewish religion. The cantor Sing back with the rabbi has just read from the torah. Other good ones are a reason to fight which is a very personal Song to the band come on to memories, cover of stings if I ever lose my face in you. The other 1 is inside the fire which is about survivors guilt. When David was younger he came across his girlfriend that committed suicide. He has a PSA at the very beginning of the video. And the 1st 3-5 seconds is Particularly bone chilling for those of us who have Depression
This touches my soul
Thanks to S & G for writing and recording this classic over 50 years ago, allowing Disturbed, Pentatonix and others to re-interpret the meaning.......a warning against an increasingly detached, unfeeling, cold society.......maybe more relevant today than in the 1960's......props to the cinematographer for the stunning visuals
It was recorded in black and white! It'a also an emotional song, it's brought reviewers to tears. A truelly masterfully done cover.
We hear the use of an organ in “popular” music so seldom these days but it is beautiful and powerful in this video. There is so much to love in this - one of my favorites!
I remember when i heard this first. I was on search of metal bands with awesome singers. Was referred to this as well as Myles Kennedy, and Devin Townsend. Only the Devin stayed in my personal playlist.
Mythological feel of this video is amazing.
Check out Chris Cornell - "Nothing Compares 2 U" (Prince cover made famous by Sinead O'Conner) [Live @ SiriusXM] | Lithium. I think it is his best song!
I love this song and love David!! I hate when these reaction people keep pausing the song. Let him sing and comment after he's done!!!!
"Tight" is indeed the very word. Just recently saw them live and was blown away. And, yes, you got Dan Donegan's name right! LOL
Diana Ankudinova has released a new song! There are not enough words to describe the feeling of flight that this song gives.
Diana Ankudinova - The Day You...
A surprise awaits you! New vocal level!
Best reaction ever
Thank for your knowledgeable reaction! I’ve been following Disturbed down the rabbit hole since 2020. Enjoyed your in-depth reaction to the instrumental performance. Actually learned to listen to aspects I hadn’t noticed before. Subscribed.
Sometimes the voice needs to stay up front in a song ...... This is one of them
This is their Official Video they release to UA-cam.. There 'are' no copyright blocks.
My best friend’s uncle passed in late Sept 2023. Many months before he died, my best friend found out that his uncle’s favorite band was Disturbed, so they played this song at the funeral reception. The irony is - not only is Disturbed my friend’s favorite band but a lot of his extended family as well and no really said anything about it until after the service. It’s kind of crazy what playing this song brought out.
They’re hoping to get this song dedicated to their late uncle when they see them in concert early next year.
I got through the reaction without getting emotional which felt good. Awesome job.
Thanks so much for sharing ❤️
Thanks so much for sharing ❤️
Luv your reaction! ❤️🎼❤️🎼
Really loved your reaction and all the positive comments. I totally love everything coming from this band. The soft side to the metal it’s all fantastic. I would like you to review Metal Singer performs Amazing Grace by Dan Vasc. Please take the time to review some of his covers. I think you would be surprised! Back to David….he is awesome! Great review! 🎶🎶🎶
Im glad you got to see this one, the video adds a lot to the song, and David was sick when he did Conan. Also, the producers autotuned him on Conan despite his protests, so this is a much better example.
the thing you pointed out about the ending with the 3 layers is also a reflection of how the song progresses. the first verse is piano, the second adds guitar and the third brings in the rest of the music in the third
You are very good at your job!
Hi! You're my favorite reactors, you know
Wow, thanks!
Great review. It is good to hear someone breakdown the essence of the music performance along with the critique of the video. May I suggest another great performer you might enjoy, and that is Dan Vasc performing Amazing Grace. He is credited as a metal singer but has far more talent than just that genre.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Not only is his vocals are amazing and the video portrays the meaning of the lyrics perfectly, Simon and Garfunkel version was a warning and Disturbed’s version is that we need to get our act together
David called Paul Simon to ask if he wanted royalties for the song and Paul said "No its your song now".
Personally I genuinely enjoy when reviewers WATCH the video with the song much better!
It gives a deeper context, and is so much more intense.
The best way to share a passionate message, and THIS...
David does it so sublimely:)
Simon and Garfunkle gave us the song as a warning, David shares his Hurt, Angst, and Angry Frustration that we have not heeded it.
I am SO chuffed that Paul Simon GAVE this song, literally to David, to pass. The message on.
In fact it is the ONLY song that Paul has a LINK to!
Powerful doesnt even come close to describing David and the Band sharing this with us.
I love how when someone sees the video, also understanding the subtle to the blatant, in your face message, that they are beseeching us to embrace and act on it.
Well done, this is in my top 5 reviews!
But will admit edits whilst the review goes on..
And how many of us have watched this prior..and watching now...
and feeling the chills, but also saying to the reviewer...
"wait for it...WAIT FOR IT!!" LOL!!
That said,
Warm Mama Karma Hugs from the Weald:) XXX
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, enthusiasm and candor. I would like to hear your reaction/analysis to Beth Hart. Her rabbit hole is FILLED with soulful, raw emotion and she absolutely captivates her audience. To start:
-"Am I the One" live at Paradiso (2004)
-"Caught Out in the Rain" live at The Royal Albert Hall (2018)
-"I'd Rather Go Blind" with Joe Bonamassa live in Amsterdam
There aren't many live videos that Trump the original version. But I think the Conan one is a better version. Many people in the music community and I've even seen reactors say so as well. Obviously the original is still good
Dan Donegan is amazing! Mike Wengren is amazing on drums.
I suggest The plagues (prince of Egypt metal cover) by Caleb Hyles and Jonathan young
Stargazer yet?😁
Again he was classically trained
😛
Great video!! This was my 1st time seeing a reaction from your channel. I did sub. I have a true masterpiece suggestion. Please check out a song called 7 Years by the artist Sully Erna. He is also the lead singer of the band Godsmack. I guarantee you will love this song!!!! I beg you to do it!!! Please!! It really is an amazing piece of music.
May I ask what headphones you are using?
Is that a Rickson hat?
Yes sir!
Checkout how many UA-cam views this video has.
Sound was way too low. Hard to hear it. But I noticed you turned up your headphones
I had a music professor who didn't allow anyone to talk while playing music. He said that it destroyed the emotional that the song was trying to instill to the listeners. I guess they don't teach that anymore.
Although I want to hear your reaction to this master piece, to be honest whilst the music is playing the only reaction I would like to see is “ The Sound of Silence “ until it’s finished. Not interruptions. That said it is a wonderful version that I never get bored of hearing.
