Simon and Garfunkel sang the original written by Paul Simon. Disturbed is the group you are trying to think of,heavy metal rock,screaming is their usual forte. The song bemoaned the fact that people weren't communicating with each other distracted by everything else. It is more appropriate now. 1964 no computers,no cell phones,but people diametrically opposed to each other. It was the season of love,hippies,generational misunderstandings,anti war protests and human rights. Martin Luther King,Gloria Steinen, John F Kennedy,Robert Kennedy. So much happened in the 1960's that changed the focus of the world.
Simon and Garfunkel wrote this while in New York City in the 60s. Tenament Halls refrers to substandard housing in NYC. Here is a clip from the internet: What is tenement housing?
Known as tenements, these narrow, low-rise apartment buildings-many of them concentrated in the city's Lower East Side neighborhood-were all too often cramped, poorly lit and lacked indoor plumbing and proper ventilation.
Subway walls in NYC are always covered in grafitti. This was back in the day when the Beatles were on their way and you had Bob Dylan leading the folk revolution against the "establishment" and the Vietnam war was just underway.
Rob Lundquist did a video with The Hound and The Fox too. Can You Feel the Love Tonight.
They also wrote an original, A Whistling Lad with a special part specifically for Chance.
I love the Whistling Lad! Chance in that cap is eye candy.
Love that song!!!
The Whistling Lad is awesome! But every single song with this trio are stellar! ❤
Peter Hollens and Tim Foust do a version of this too.....
That is my favorite cover of this song. I've always loved the original.
I have seen in HF BTS that they just use a small BT speaker for playback. What baffles me is how these three manage to hear/match the replay with the echoes that must have been ringing inside that culvert with 2 guitars and three voices.
With respect to texting/email - if you haven't already, you might want to listen to Austin's Real Talk on his solo channel.
And I have to say, it is interesting to watch a new generation hear this song. Think about WHEN this was written, what was going on in the US in the mid-60s? Aside from a great deal of experimentation with various drugs. So many political and social things. Life really is cyclical.
The Hound and The Fox have always been very inventive. They did a cover of Thinking Out Loud on their channel as a couple getting ready for a date. They then were the actors portraying the date in Home Free's mashup of Let's Get It On/ Thinking Out Loud. They produced and directed both videos with their third partner Jimmy Bates.
I agree. Watching H&F Thinking Out Loud, then HF's Thinking Out Loud/ Let's Get It On mashup, back to back is really cool!
Tenement halls refers to separate residences in housing complexes and apartments, specifically low income, rundown, and/or overcrowded apartments. But I like your take on it. It made perfect sense especially when you tie in the word prophets. 🤷♀ Great reaction Matt and Chris - thoroughly enjoyed it.
The Hound and The Fox and Chance are amazing. Both of the songs are amazing. Peter Hollens and Tim Foust also did this song. They did a great job also. It is a great one to check out. Thanks guys.
Tenement halls are the buildings in the slums. He's saying that the homeless and the poor have a better grasp of reality than the educated distracted by the bright lights and wealth accrual. I think you should also do The Boxer by Simon and Garfunkel. Simon wrote amazing songs like Bridge over Troubled Water and others.
The Hound+The Fox also have a beautiful rendition of Scarborough Fair.
Isn't this cool? I love your reactions. And I never mind you going back to hear portions again. Our friend Lyle at Patrol Nation regularly plays the whole video twice. I don't mind that either!
And you notice one of the two songs is Adam Chance featuring the Hound + the Fox - the other is the Hound + the Fox featuring Adam Chance. So each of them got the lead. They are beautiful together.
The band Disturbed did the version you are looking for. It is an astounding version. Their version is a work of art. I really think you would love it.
The Hound and Fox are mainly folk music. I think Riley (Hound) did videos for Home Free. They are the couple with the baby in Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer. They have been in a few videos of Home Free.
🦗 I stayed the whole time! Lol And even better, the videos were released on the same day, 15 minutes apart! That was a blast in the premiere live chats!
Riley (him) and Mackenzie (her) started the video company Fifgen. They did videos for various groups including Home Free. They also appear in several HF videos. Then with encouragement from their friends, they started their music career together. They have since sold Fifgen to their former partner Jimmy, who has been doing a majority of Home Free's videos. And Riley and Mackenzie join Rob and Buegs frequently for their podcast, The Avid Indoorsman. It's all one big happy musical family!
"The Hound" (sorry, don't know his name) was in charge of the video for Home Free's "Try Everything" You can check it out on their "from the Vault" Episode 1. and Adam's first video with them. Great reaction and I love when "light dawns" 😂💡
He's Reilly. She's McKenzie. Their last name is Zamber. I think they're wonderful!
@@nightthornkvala94132 Agreed! 😍
"Hurt" is a great one too. Tim did "We Three Kings" with Hound and Fox also and it's hauntingly beautiful the settings are awesome and sets a mood too.
Loved that you reacted to this
I've been listening to this song by S&G forever, my mom loved them, & even though I've always thought it was a beautiful song, I never ever caught the profits double meaning, I'm seriously going back to listen to it again with a new ear!!! Thanks guys, I appreciate learning new things, & my mind is blown now.
This was awesome...it was very reminiscent of Simon and Garfunke's version with their harmonies....Love you guys. you are awesome, and hilarious. keep doin wathcha doin, I never knew Adam played guitar...totally awesome.
Oh, wow! Check out Adam Chance's channel and a few of his solos!! He's pretty good on the guitar and I'm totally loving his version of "If I Could Only Fly"!! His original "Song for Home" is beautiful, too! His voice is so silky smooth. ❤🎶💕
You should listen to Simon and Garfunkels whole LP...... The lyrics of all the songs are amazing. That's why ....back in the day....I enjoyed more duos and solo artist of the 60s and 70s.....Think James Taylor and Carol King....
The song is about a dream. "Hello darkness my old friend I've come to talk to you again" describes going to sleep. The vision he talks about is a dream he's having. So the song is about going to sleep and the dream that he has. This was one of my favorite groups in the 60's and 70's.
Makenzie (Fox), Reilly (Hound), and Adam Chance are really good together. And the culvert is on their property in Oregon.
From LyricFind - the lyrics at the end of the song:
"Fools" said I, "You do not know And the people bowed and prayed
Silence like a cancer grows To the neon god they made
Hear my words that I might teach you And the sign flashed out its warning
Take my arms that I might reach you" In the words that it was forming
But my words like silent raindrops fell And the sign said, "The words of the prophets
And echoed in the wells of silence. Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls
And whispered in the sounds of silence"
🦗 (found a cricket, not a grasshopper)
I heard Simon & Garfunkel's original version in the late 60's -- era with no cell phone, no internet, plain old telephone and broadcast TV. Disturbed also covered it recently, then Pentatonix added their flavor. Others pentaholics noted that S&G's version was an alert -- pay attention, humans! Disturbed's version was a head smack -- hey, listen up! Then PTX came in with a hopeful rendition - "Listen, there's still time to change. Get to it" sub text.
This version with 3 part harmony and two guitars is also spectacular.
I love all 4 versions.
Peter Hollens feat. Tim Foust also did a rendition. All of them are cool. It's just such a great song to begin with!
I'm sure someone already mentioned it, but the band you were thinking of was "Disturbed"
Peter Hollens and Tim Faust also did a cover of this and Bridge Over Troubled Water.... A cappella of course.. Peters layering is above the best ... Hope you check them out too..
This is a beautiful cover! Very soft, but still powerful! Loved your reactions!
Paul Simon wrote the song in a dark NYC bathroom full of porcelain (think echoes) and it was identifying how everyone at the time (early 60's) was to busy trying to make their own message heard and were not listening to anyone else... still going on today huh? Where S&G were sending a warning... Disturbed's version is screaming because nobody listened. OBTW, email didn't show up until the mid 80's. Also, when this was written in the 60's NYC... there was a lot of graffiti in the NYC subway and low income housing were "tenement buildings" which were low bid apartment buildings that were pretty scuzzy to live in. 🦗🦗🦗
No cell phones, computer had been invented but took up a whole room in size. I was using a manual typewriter, couldn’t afford the new electric typewriter. S&G concert during Homecoming weekend was great. They sounded just like their records, even better than there records. This trio is wonderful.
Great stuff ... very artistic !
And echoed in the wells of silence...
Great reaction! The Hound & Fox used to be the production crew for Home Free’s videos. You can also see them act as extras or guess stars in several of them. The are helping produce Chance’s solo album that he’s currently working on. They’ve also done collabs with Tim and Rob individually. I love their stuff and a lot of it has a very haunting sound.
Thanks for this reaction - loved seeing your breakdown of the lyrics - having been around back in the 60s it had a different meaning than what you came up with but it does work -- Prophets & Profits. Keep doing what you are doing and you should get to 50K this year!
I so appreciate you guys. Another generation's perspective of this song. I grew up with this song. I had no idea then, that this song would be timeless. Yes, us old farts talk about non relevant crap, and state the obvious, randomly lol You'll get there too. This song was also in a classic movie, The Graduate. Peace, love, rock on Loved the reaction, it was brilliant! 🦗🦗🦗
🦗The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls & tenement halls to me always meant. That it's not the powerful ones who speak what's real, it's the basic everyday man, the ones who have little money as tenements especially in NYC (where S&G are from) were run down low class housing. They know the real deal what life really is about. The daily struggles to just stay alive. To keep your head above water. Not the papers not the corporations but the man on the street. But no ones listens to them but clearly they should. Anyway it's one of those songs you listen to in a smoky room and pull it apart with friends and just look around and know you do occasionally make sense. But that's my take on it. I dig yours too. This was a great reaction. And so was yesterday's.
For more Hound and the Fox their rendition of “Kiss Me” is wonderful. It has an ethereal quality. Her voice is just lovely.
I enjoyed the reaction, but it made me feel really old!! I have always been a huge fan of Simon & Garfunkel and listed to their music (on cassette tape) over and over and over. This is one of my favorite versions of this song. This trio did an excellent job! It was fun to hear you break down the lyrics, even though you occasionally guessed wrong. I love that you work so hard to understand what the lyrics mean. Like any great song, it can probably be interpreted differently in different times. I love watching y'all! Thanks!
Paul Simon is a genius. HF are so good in all their videos because they are film makers. They are conscious of the visuals. They are true artists, both musically and visually. They have a halloween album that was awesome. Grasshopper.... (cant find it.)
🦗 3 days ago Colm McGuinness music on youtube uploaded a 'low bass singer cover' of 16 tons, Irish folk/blues mashup really works.
Loved your enthusiasm about the turning in the end!
Tenement = rental apartment building.
Tenant = renter, hirer.
This song was not on S&G's first album, but it got huge airplay so the record company re-issued the album with this song.
The Hound & Fox sing wonderful duets and Adam Chance makes the perfect complement to them. It's always so nice to see the members of Home Free sing with other performers - they each have the ability to adapt to anyone/everyone else and, of course, Chance has performed with them in the past. Chance's rendition of "The Man Who Can't Forget" (on his channel) is outstanding.
(The) Sound of Silence was a hit for Paul Simon & Art Garfunkel in 1966 (they had a string of hits which also included "El Condor Pasa", "Bridge Over Troubled Water" and "Mrs. Robinson". It's been covered by lots of singers since, including a duet with Peter Hollens & Tim Foust. The band you were trying to remember is called Disturbed.
Great reaction, guys! I date back to the days of S&G and 'SOS' was a huge fave. The message of the lyrics interpreted differently, back then.
Disturbed went really dark and intense with this song; Pentatonix's version is pretty epic. Where the song speaks of 'words of the prophets written on subway walls and tenement halls' one could also take the latter to reference all the graffiti commonly associated with dark walkways and stairwells in that type of run-down housing. The 'message' within the 'artwork.'
Chance has been working on his 'solo' album. Wonder if TH+TF will show up. Amazing trio of voices.
They are excellent.. as is this song.. Thanks. One of the best concerts I have ever gone to was a Bob Dylan/Paul Simon concert.. Odd combination I thought.. but just wonderful .
I've waited a long time to hear Chris return to his analysis of lyrics. Chris will have a field day with Ren's "Hi Ren", a 9-minute video.
You keep saying that it was ahead of its time, but in reality, it was perfect for the time it was written. Simon and Garfunkel were New York City boys, especially Paul Simon, and the 1960's were the time when a whole counter-culture of protest was in full swing. Go back and look at the songs of the folk groups of the time, and you will find a bunch of songs that play along these same longs. But like you said. Things are cyclical, and history repeats itself. Its why a lot of 60's and 70's songs are so relevant today.
As someone who is old enough to have heard the original a hundred times, the lyrics are all about isolation, loneliness and the desire to connect that fails over and over. Tenements (or rundown apartments for people living below the poverty line in a large city) and subways are crowded but they are still full of desperate people isolated from each other in crowded conditions.
Another great reaction...even if you did make me feel ancient - who sang the original...really? 🤣That made me laugh, for sure! Um, I see a lot of comments around the meaning of the song, but I'm not sure if anyone answered the "whose had the idea for transitioning from one song to the next". According to a comment made by The Hound + The Fox on their UA-cam video, that was Adam's idea. It was brilliant, as you said. I love to see reactions to the H+F/AC collaborations (I love them all) - they definitely deserve more attention, as do their individual works. So much talent there!
❤️❤️
Disturbed, is the rock band. Tim and Peter Hollins also have a version, it's a more powerful version. This version by Adam and F and H is beautiful!! Adam sounds incredible!!
The Disturbed version is amazing make sure to watch the live tapping and Pentatonix has it's unique spin on this song
A tenement is a type of building shared by multiple dwellings, typically with flats or apartments on each floor and with shared entrance stairway access. from wiki. I believe this is the definition that was meant in this song.
Watch the Hound and The Foxes version of Running Up the Hill from Stranger Things.
🦗🦗🦗I don't know what a Grasshopper emoji means, but I don't WANT to know, either. All I know is that the longer you 2 go, the more sense you make. When you have to continue on. Mainly, you do. I'm sounding like I am laughing at you, but I'm not. I swear. Anyways, Great Post AND Reactions to it. Thank you for sharing this with us.
This is a good version. I love their soft voices in this. Love Chance with them. Try Hurt with them and Chance. Good reaction boys!😍
🦗🦗🦗 Disturbed is my hubby's favorite version of this song, but I think this one is mine. Beautiful reaction boys‼️ Keep up the amazing work. 🤗
I love y’all’s reactions!! Y’all always put a smile on my face. Keep it up! 🤘🏻🦗
NGL, one of my favorite uses of this song is in the movie Trolls.
When this song was written, there were no cellphones, texting didn't exist. They are referring to the fact that people talked but it was nothing more than blather, just talking to hear there own voice. Hearing without listening refers to hearing words that are spoken but not listening to what is spoken, people writing songs that never get sung, people wanted their silence. It was a very poinient song of the time but it hits home today even harder. Tenement Halls were run down government housing in the ghettos of New York that weren't suitable for human habitation. Words of the prophets meaning corporate greed
Home Free always advertises another song at the end of their videos. I’ve always thought that was clever
Love your editor correcting you :)
Tim Foust and Peter Hollens did a great version of this as did Pentatonix. Would like to see you react to both. Great reaction!
Tenements are small boxy apartments that were put up in large cities for poor people.
In the 60's, "The words of the prophets" meant the graffiti that was sprayed painted on the rundown, low-rent apartment buildings in NYC. "God is dead", "The end is here", etc. Computers were room sized, phones had cords and were hung on walls, the internet did not exist, texts? what are they? People talked over each other mostly just making noise, there really was no silence.
Today, what you are saying makes sense.
The words haven't changed in 60 years but the context, the way they are seen, how they relate, has.
This video reminded me that you haven't done Disturbed's version of Sound of Silence, which is normally how I find a reaction channel. I'm going to guess it was Home Free in your case.
I read an essay by someone I wish I could recall and give credit. That author hypothesized that the song was a warning about the take over of American family life by the fairly recent invention and then explosive popularity of color TV. Could be….?
Disturbed did Sound of Silence pretty much killed the Internet for weeks.
LOL Us old farts talk about nothing because youth doesn't like history nor us in general. Old farts are isolated we haven't had anyone to talk to in so long we don't know what to say. Woke and Cancel have made conversation a Minefield ! No way to say anything without being accused of the worst.
Music can save us all if we let it.
Chris Rupp of HF that's how they did those 2 Christmas videos use of space that church 1st in the choir space 2nd in the pews. same kind of idea but released a bit apart. there was so much debate in the comments about Chris wearing a hat in church no one really noticed it was same church same night of filming. And I think it was The Hound and Fox's Production Co. that did those videos now that I'm thinking about it.
Never saw you guys so jazzed. Brilliant for sure... I'm talking about your analysis. Funny as hell and go back all you like. Tenements are housing for poor (born in cold water flat). What a find "profits" I'm so impressed. Going to PayPal for this revelation. Now I've got to look for your darn grasshopper emoji. I put a heart with cross for help here. Great fun!
✌🏻😎👍
It's got that bouncy feel of the original.
A lot of the new covers have a darker feel to them.
Thank you for a lovely reaction and for sharing your experiences. Please check out We Three Kings by The Hound & The Fox with Tim Foust (if you haven't yet.)
Added! Thank you for the kind words!
Um... it was "echos in the realms of silence". I've been listening to this song since the sixties, I nearly fell out of my chair when you tried to say "talking without speaking" was texting and emailing. lol Niether of those things existed back then.
I did click on this one 1st ... then, dropped back and listened to the 1st --- to make this 2nd (as reacted!) :). I love it, the paying attention to the words and their meanings.... sadly songs aren't written that way much now-a-days. They absolutely killed both, just sayin (I did watch when they "premiered"!). So many today (honestly, last several yrs) can't think for themselves... well, lacking commonsense (now known as Not-so-commonsense). Society is to blame (we) and has permitted for it to happen (dumbing-down) Be Safe

Hey to the Algorithm!!
#streettacomusic #goosepickles
I don't have a grasshopper emoji :P
I'm too blind to see emojis so, Grasshopper, dammit!
☁️🦗
Disturbed 🦗
Both very excellent, very different feels

The song wasn't ahead of its time, the basics of what is going on is nothing new, it's just the venues and tools used to distract ourselves have changed. Every generation, every decade, has its seasons, its struggles, its ideas, its evolution where it moves away from the previous generations. The biggest difference between your generation and those before you is that your generation is more free to do what you want, choose what you like, and not give a damn about what other people think. Those things were way harder for earlier generations. There was less information available, fewer role models available, and the boxes were stricter, tighter, and if you went outside a box you really had to struggle, unless you made it. Today you can step out of a box and while there are those who will frown upon it, there are also a lot of support and acceptance that didn't exist before. So no, this song wasn't ahead of its time, it's just timeless because they didn't define the details of things.
please react to nightwish-Ghost love score ( 4th time asking)
No, it's not profits, it's fecetiously referring to the people who write on subway, flop house and bathroom walls as prophets.

Another take on talking without speaking: actions speak louder than words. We can say a lot without ever opening our mouths.
I don't care much for this song, especially since Disturbed fked it so badly. But The Hound and Adam Chance really made it sound beautiful.
Tenement is cheap housing, cheap low-class apartments.
Oh, you guys should live in Spain for a while. Spanish people are loud because everybody talks and nobody listens.
People need to speak out about Trump, yet most of America stays silence. Americans need to wake up and not keep their disgust to themselves. Silence has allowed Trump to become who he is. The noise that he makes needs us to overcome the silence and join together and be heard
I love your reactions, but I am really getting tired of being told the music I grew up on was before it's time, it wasn't. Enjoy
