If you wonder: Why on Mothers Earth did she share this reaction twice?? It's because the first video which included the Video version of this song Is partly blocked because of Copyright, so this video will be visible for everyone who want's to see Henri's reaction! Love ya!
Sabina!! :D I have a great song for you to try. This one is incredibly lively and full of energy and incredible rock vocals. Dragonforce - Through the fire and flames. Probably some of the fastest guitar playing ever. ua-cam.com/video/rK_d5g3pBb8/v-deo.html
bro, when he says “to the neon gods, they mayyyy” in that grungy voice, chills anyone ? Chills every single time you hear it no matter how many times you hear it anyone ?
David Draiman....one of THE best male vocalists out there. Can go from warm baritone to tenor, to clear as an angelic bell to grit/rasp and back on a DIME. Awesome talent and amazing voice control!
You both smiling at the exact same time, when Draiman started "Bow'd and praaaay!" was, for me the very best moment of this video. Truly. The expressions, contained, for "YES!" are... marvelous. God's know how many times i rewinded this scene over and over again.
When he sang this live version, he had the flu and had been in the hospital but didn’t want to let his fans down, so he left just to do this , then went back to the hospital. Respect!
Davids voice even with a cold is an AMAZINGLY powerful instrument! He's spectacular! I've listened to this song over 100 times and its more and more amazing each time.
Some people don't understand when things go quite the birds stop singing then you know your in trouble that's when you hear the bomb's going off, by me living in northern Ireland and those around the world today, we shall overcome!!!
The point she makes at 8:30 is exactly why this is the penultimate version, and best cover ever. We've all heard A Sound of Silence a thousand times (well my generation), but I never KNEW the lyrics. Now I know the song, and feel every bit of the intended emotion.
I saw DISTURBED here where I live in October of 2019. And he for those that may still think his voice is fake in this song, they would be wrong, it's 100% real.
Every. Damned. Time. I admit to never liking the original and having never actually listening to the words. When this came out, I listened to the words for the first time and it is one of the most heartbreaking things I’ve ever heard.
This one is the most beautiful rendition of this song and I'm being listening for many years, I'm 65. He impersonated the God of Music and he is really mad with humans that are entertained with silliness, instead of listening or creating beauty with his instruments. The music they are creating is soo useless that nobody hear it, is like they are creating "silence". He is the first singer that make me, MAKE ME listen to the lyrics. He shocked my shoulders and ask me, "DO YOU GET IT"? Love his angry God face.
Thank you for the amazing review. Nearly every review I've watched they always stop and give their opinion. You sat there watched the whole video without saying a word. And the smiles on your face when The fry kicked in. I love the fact that he pronunciates each and every word in the lyrics that takes you on an emotional journey
watching your micro-reactions while listening really showed how you felt as you listened, narrowing of the eyes, the shaking of the head,tension increasing and releasing through the eyebrows, and the smile when he got to his vocal fry/gravel portion.
Dear Sabina and Henri 🌷 I think Henri said it best about the voice, when it is so good there are no words to describe it. Simon & Garfunkel sang it softly but Disturbed sang with angry passion, like a cry to the world. Love watching you two lovelies 🤗
Incredible,David commands that you listen to the words of this song.As the lady said there are no words to describe how good he sang it.Simply incredible.
Yes. And if i remember correctly, David (the singer) said in an interview that that was the idea behind that cover. The original from Simon and Garfunkel being this lighthearted warning and then their own version as this heavy, accusatory song for not heeding said warning. Gives me goosebumps everytime.
@@dennisivan85 are you sure you've understood the song yourself? Paul Simon once described it as "a song about the inability of people to communicate with each other" Pretty ironic that you talk about the meaning of this song and then refuse to answer this person's question.
performance was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! his voice is beautiful and haunting.....the piano stirs the soul.................the pounding bass drum is haunting and the orchestra fit the overall mood of the song beautifully and you both are adorable
Everything about this song moves me, especially when watching the official version. The visuals, the chosen instruments, the acoustics and David's awesome vocal capabilities all focus your attention on the deep and meaningful message in Paul Simon's lyrics. David's angelic and demonic voice is purely magical. This version is the best cover of all the songs I have heard.
Perhaps the greatest song of my lifetime...and seems to not matter who sings it...haunting, beautiful, truthful, frightening...this is a powerful comment on life...
He was so focused and calm as he commanded/demanded attention to the meaning of the song. The details of his performance were also amazing. The body language... he sang to the entire audience as he looked to left and right, the clinched fist and the thankful prayer-like bow at the end was majestic. The best cover performance I’ve ever seen. No other band or singer can touch this rendition, period. So many comments have compared David’s version to many others especially Pentatonix’s version. They did a great job, but it just didn’t stack up to David’s imho. I’ll probably catch some bad comments for that, but that’s fine. Peace
I will never get tired of listening to this cover, BRILLIANT. This is the way a reaction vid should be done (for all you reactors out there) No interruptions and give your views after the song is complete. One thing about this particular version i have noticed is that all the people reacting are at a loss for words.
He wasn't well when he recorded this version... his voice really is incredible and i'm sure he's classicly trained. Enjoyed the reaction - as always, take care!!
He was not sick nor recovering for vocal surgery those are all rumors that David Draiman has dispelled in severl interviews. He did mention he was extremely nervous because of Conan's viewership and the great respect he has for Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel.
Simply one of the best songs ever written. Lyrically it is poetry and almost a prophecy that we have chosen to ignore…because no one dare disturb the Sound of Silence.
I know this song relates to alot like myself. I've been free from drugs and been homeless, but now I have a home and my family back, but every now and then that sound of silence creeps up on you, songs like this gives you strength to break that silence!! 💪🙏🙌❤️
This man was fighting the flu he's a metal singer and you need to see down with the sickness you will be able to see what they really sound like. My favorite song is stricken . Have a good time with this rabbit hole . Peace from Stan the Alaskan.
@@GenX...MCMLXV....Actually Paul is nice, but he also has a very dry personality and sense of humor, which is why he was a regular on SNL, and why others who don't know him, have claimed he is smug. He has never commented on any artist comver of one of his songs, and there are many, . He made a point to email Draiman simply saying, well done, I truly enjoyed your rendition of our song, and then Simon put a link to the video on a couple of his social media pages, So I don't think he was "just being nice" I'll give you a shiny pretty penny if you even know what the song is about.
i enjoy the friendship you two share ... Sabina shows pride in sharing her discoveries with Henri and it makes for an enjoyable watch! Thank you, Ladies!
David is just a unique singer. Put alot of grit, emotion, and Passion into his vocals. that's why every song he makes just blow you away. that man has been through some shit.
I can't tell you how many times I've watched this video. David's voice is incredible, pure in all of his unbelievable range. This was simply a great performance. BTW, love you two together, bright, engaging and oh so cute.
You could definitely tell you two beautiful ladies were completely mesmerized by this performance. Loved the little smiles from you two when he belted out... "And the people bowed and prayed, to the neon god they made". This is the type of performance where the performer leaves you begging for more, when the song ends. Great reaction. Peace....
I can never decide which version I like more. The Conan appearance has a bit more power because the mixing isn't so controlled, but the official video is a flat out work of art, so beautifully mixed, and the story... oh the story...
This is one of the deepest most meaningful songs ever written. S&G made it an icon. When I first heard someone remade it I was very upset. I thought "you cannot duplicate perfection, who in the world had the guts to even try this, what an insult to S&G." So I listened to it with a negative attitude to start with. By "I've come to talk with you again" my eyes got wide, my mouth dropped open and I didn't take my eyes off the video. I am not normally a fan of remakes, particularly remakes of icon songs written by original artists and sung by original artists, there are just some songs that cannot be remade or perfected, and its insulting to me when people try. But this....THIS is the most incredible remake I have ever heard. I have probably listened to it a thousand times and I will never ever get tired of it. David Draiman brings more than justice to this song. I would think that S&G would give this a two thumbs up, or a full two hands up for that matter. This is out of this world. Talent over talent over talent. Incredible. Unique is putting it mildly, I can't take my eyes off of him. He is indescribable. The emotion in his face in the video is so deep and meaningful if it doesn't give you chills nothing will. An amazing gift to the music industry. He will be an icon for the rest of time because of this song. I am much too young to remember anything about S&G specifically, I sort of remember the split but never did find out what caused the rift. My older brothers are the ones who taught me an appreciation of that era of music and the history behind all of it, the protests, the war, Woodstock, the needless deaths in a country who didn't want us there to begin with, they aren't old enough to have been at Woodstock, the oldest was born in 1971, but they know their classic rock and 60's music, and I was singing that stuff since the age of 4 or 5 because they taught me not only the words but the meaning behind it ( it didn't really register for a couple more years when they were showing me videos of Woodstock and Vietnam and then we rented the movie "Platoon" and watched it when I was like 6 or 7 and it started to make sense) which my folks would have killed them for letting the little ones watch that LOL, and they taught me about the band members and what they did and their back stories. I was the only one in my 3rd grade class who knew Janis Joplin and Jimmy Hendrix died from an OD from Heroin and that Jimmy Hendrix played the Stars Bangle Banner on guitar, and what the meaning of the song "White Rabbit" was, let alone that mushroom was a hallucinogen and that 420 grew in the ground and how even back then they all thought it should be legal because what grows in the ground was put there by God for us to enjoy (and we all still believe that, but we live in the middle of the bible belt so its going to take some time to make 420 legal here but we will get there, just like the casinos) I wasn't born until 1980. But I can name the song and artist of nearly every song done in the 60's 70's and 80's and can sing them word for word. I hardly listen to 1990's music and beyond which my friends still think very strange because that's our era and I cannot get them to understand how important music was at that time, how it influenced the music industry forever and how that music in those era's changed our world forever, those bands and those artists changed this country and how we live. Elvis broke the seal yes, but it was that era that stole his crown for sure. It must have been an incredible time to have been alive and young then. My brothers say the same but we were too young for concerts, (or so our parents said) except the oldest two who were 16 and 17, they would have let them go probably, and we only hear about Woodstock and the war because my parents were just graduating college when the Vietnam war started and my father was in law school and his number never came up or he would have been drafted into that war so they were not at Woodstock but they tell us about it. The first concert I ever went to was the Rolling Stones "Steel Wheels" when I was 9 years and the oldest was 17, he got 8 tickets and the 7 youngest of us including me snuck out of our bedrooms which were all in a remodeled awesome basement for 8 kids with all separate bedrooms for everyone through the well windows, the boys pushed my oldest brothers car far enough down the street that our parents couldn't possible hear his car start because it was a loud sports car convertible, we all locked our bedroom doors and stuffed a bunch of pillows under the covers and he drove us there and it was one of the most incredible concerts. We all bought t shirts but it didn't hit us how we could ever wear them or they would know we went without permission, and even of the 16 and 17 year old had permission, which they didn't, how did all 8 of us suddenly get stones concert t-shirts, and there was no way they would have been allowed to take a 10, 11, 12, 14 and 15 year old by ourselves to a Stones concert, my parents weren't stupid they knew the Stones. I remember he told us the tickets were like 5.00 each then. Back then 5.00 to me sounded like a fortune, but we went and we never got caught. We all hid our t shirts and several years ago we all went and had them preserved so they will never get old and the material will not rot. Since I was the youngest, back then I would sometimes let things slip. They all warned me within an inch of my life if I ever let it slip or ratted them out I could never ride in their cars with them again. I have 5 older brothers, I was the youngest and the only girl 3 of the 8 of us. The two oldest, 16 and 17 each had what I thought were the coolest sports cars ever (and they were pretty cool, mustang convertibles, one red and one royal blue). I was officially the coolest kid in the entire grade school because from second grade on they always picked me up after school and always had a soda from a gas station and a snack for me every single day. My friends always would ask for rides but they never would take anyone else. My father always told them if they did he would take their keys away for one month. Such great memories, the oldest is only 8 years older than me so we are all under 50. We always make fun of my dad for not giving our poor mom a break in between kids. The biggest age spread is 2 years difference in between baby 4 and 5. Everyone else was born back to back. My dads family is boy heavy, I guess he was determined to have that first girl, but talk about cherished by my brothers and dad...I thank God my mother lived long enough to raise me. Had something happened to her I would be the most miserable spoiled rotten brat on this earth. She is the only one who ever would hand down any discipline to me at all, then she had a house full of pissed off men at her for the next few days. HA!
I was ten when Simon n Garfunkle released it. And to this day one of my favorites of all time. I am a musician and am a metal guy. Been a Disturbed since they hit the air. This version is stellar and of all the reviews i have watched, they seem very respectful and really enjoyed this version. Where others seem to grapple with the hidden desire of relevency but come across as clueless
Watching your faces while listening was all you needed to say, you said it all in your expressions. :) I'm the exact same as Henri, and didn't know others were like this, but yes, I'll goes years listening to a song and not know what the lyrics are because I just love the melodies of it all together. I didn't know anyone else did this too! Most people I know can sing along with songs, not so for me. But I will instantly recognize and know a song within the first few notes.
Your facial reactions say it all !!! This is an amazing cover of a brilliant song, 1st done by Simon & Garfunkel warning us, if we don't change our ways we are headed for destruction, and Disturbs version is angry, because we didn’t listen to the warnings... 😌 I always feel this song is like a rollercoaster ride....... slowly bringing you to the top, with nervous anticipation, then quickly crashing to the bottom, leaving a pit in your stomach.....Great reaction & I had a very similar reaction, to my very soul......
Awesome reactions! I watch these reaction videos looking to see the expressions of those reacting to it. To see them embrace the feeling going through them in the same places the piece of music grabbed me. When people keep stopping a piece of music, they can't totally grasp the total power of it as it was meant to flow from one stage to the next plateau! I enjoyed sharing this with you! You are also both very attractive, and the girl on the right has beautiful deep dark eyes!! Thank you for this video!
Watch the official music video. Zero difference in the sound of his voice (besides the usual between being edited and not). Being sick does nothing to affect David Draiman’s voice. The man is a musical god.
My heart vibrates from this. The song of the century will ALWAYS be the one that makes you forget your damn body and remember the rest. I die on this hill
David of Disturbed, He was full of flu that night, but still producing a masterful performance! Creating tears if you work the words and official video, Ian from U.K. ❤
Yup, David Dramon is in the “top 100 vocalists of all time list” His voice is powerful and hasn’t lost anything over the 20+ years...a true talent if I ever saw one
If you wonder: Why on Mothers Earth did she share this reaction twice?? It's because the first video which included the Video version of this song Is partly blocked because of Copyright, so this video will be visible for everyone who want's to see Henri's reaction!
Love ya!
Sabina!! :D I have a great song for you to try. This one is incredibly lively and full of energy and incredible rock vocals. Dragonforce - Through the fire and flames. Probably some of the fastest guitar playing ever.

Me too
I'm here too...
You're not alone
Thank you, thank you, thank you for not continually pausing the song to talk.
same
THANK YOU for not constantly stopping and interrupting the song.
i know right lol
You don't hear the song. You feel the song. Especially the official video when he's looking into your soul.
I actually like this version better than the official video.
Blaine and I have to form a club -- I think we're the only people on the planet who prefer the official version to the Conan version. :)
No, you feel the emotion! The true feelings of mankind that really cares😐
That's it exactly! You simply feel it. I always play it at least twice.
@@angiepen I prefer the official version also. I could literally watch that video every day!!🎶
When he was asked whether he wanted the voice of an angel or a demon, he simply answered "yes".
🤗😂
He got both- brilliant
Nah Bro, that's the metal queen who got that. Tatiana of Jinjer, she got both.
Really? I've heard that a million times. Come up with your own interpretation.
@@lisaschultz469 I see this comment on Every Single Reaction to this performance!!! Literally.

Neon God they *Made*
@@Terrible_fate my bad, yeah that
Def.
About 4min 30 sec in yeah every time the hair on the back of the neck goes lol
"Made" bowed and prayed to the neon Gods they MADE" some say it predicted everyone bowing their heads looking at their phones.
David Draiman....one of THE best male vocalists out there. Can go from warm baritone to tenor, to clear as an angelic bell to grit/rasp and back on a DIME. Awesome talent and amazing voice control!
And without breaking a sweat or having any trouble whatsoever. 😍
And he did it while so sick he barely remembers the performance.
That's professionalism.
Better than Brad Delp?
@@legless4767 : Yes better IMHO....that doesn't mean that Delp wasn't great...liked "More Than a Feeling" and Hollyann" a lot. He died way too soon.
Before Disturbed covered this song I tried telling everyone how amazing David Draiman's voice. However, this cover can speak for itself!
You both smiling at the exact same time, when Draiman started "Bow'd and praaaay!" was, for me the very best moment of this video. Truly. The expressions, contained, for "YES!" are... marvelous. God's know how many times i rewinded this scene over and over again.
I love when reactor at that point smile almost cheer him on. They feel the passion
When he sang this live version, he had the flu and had been in the hospital but didn’t want to let his fans down, so he left just to do this , then went back to the hospital. Respect!
Probably the best cover of a song I've ever heard! His voice is a gift!
Davids voice even with a cold is an AMAZINGLY powerful instrument! He's spectacular! I've listened to this song over 100 times and its more and more amazing each time.
Them both smiling at the exact same moment is pure friend bliss.
I love how you wrote that ❤️
Apparently he was actually ill and had a cold and bad throat during this performance but still was able to pull this off, that’s incredible
It’s barely noticeable. I’m not a big Disturbed fan, but it simply cannot be denied that David is an amazing singer.
He was .................... Down with the sickness...............
@@ednutter7653 haha

What a testament to his EXTREME TALENT!!
Some people don't understand when things go quite the birds stop singing then you know your in trouble that's when you hear the bomb's going off, by me living in northern Ireland and those around the world today, we shall overcome!!!
it should also be said,,,that is one of the best written songs ever...And they hit it out of the park.....By far the best ....
Two gorgeous ladies reacting to a gorgeous rendition of an originally gorgeous song. This has made my day, thank you.
Aww, thanks a lot! Lots of love
The smile you made when he kicked it up a notch. Perfect!
I love this cover...it fits the lyrics better than the original
The original was a warning, the cover is telling it is now and it is happening
Agreed
And that makes 2 covers by Disturbed overtaking the originals, at least in my opinion (Land of Confusion)
The point she makes at 8:30 is exactly why this is the penultimate version, and best cover ever. We've all heard A Sound of Silence a thousand times (well my generation), but I never KNEW the lyrics. Now I know the song, and feel every bit of the intended emotion.
Fantastic greatest voice
Penultimate means second from last
How is this penultimate? It’s ultimate!
I saw DISTURBED here where I live in October of 2019. And he for those that may still think his voice is fake in this song, they would be wrong, it's 100% real.
Absolutely!!! I’ve seen them live and was astonished at how great they are live.
There was autotune added after and David was pissed. But he had the flu during this performance.
Dude can sing! Saw them at Rockfest in Wisconsin a few years ago
I have read, he was both classically trained and trained as a Cantor. What a voice!
This is the best cover of a song I have ever heard, I had a tear in my eye the first time I heard it, and I don't know why, amazing song
Paul spoke the prophecy, David saw it and made it real. The neon light was television in 1963... It is so much more now. What a prophetic song.
Привет
Absolutely. Nailed it.
I've always said the original was the warning....Disturbed's version is the angry you didn't listen to the warning the first time.
No it doesn't mean tv. Hell CRTs don't even have neon in them.
@@randybobandy9828 they still glow
If your eyes dont tear up at least once during his version, then you are not listening
Man that is the truth
Every. Damned. Time. I admit to never liking the original and having never actually listening to the words. When this came out, I listened to the words for the first time and it is one of the most heartbreaking things I’ve ever heard.
Ugh. Same here
As morbid as it sounds. This will be my funeral song.
Listened to this song for an hour today, crying like a baby.
A singer who can sing cleanly and smoothly and also sing screaming and gravely is a very rare thing indeed. Props to him...
Every time I hear this version of the song it brings me to tears, so powerful, raw emotion, loved your reaction ❤
This one is the most beautiful rendition of this song and I'm being listening for many years, I'm 65.

This cover creates an emotional rollercoaster, beautiful, tragic, outrage. S&G gave the warning, but who knew we would be living it in 2020.
I've seen a comment that fits: The original song was a warning, this one is angry because no one listened
haha, I love that 😂😊
Exactly. 💯💯💯
Yes - I think that this is the same comment that I responded to
twice. Brilliantly, captures the song should mean today.
I read that one on a reaction to either this or the Bad Wolves cover of Zombies by the Crannberries, and I've used that description ever since.

The original from Simon and Garfunkel being this lighthearted warning and then their own version as this heavy, accusatory song for not heeding said warning. Gives me goosebumps everytime.
It took metal to bring out the anger and frustration of the lyrics of this song. Sadly, as we see every day, people just don't listen to the warnings.
Explain, oh wise ine

He is classically trained.

Gotta listen to Van Dam’s covers lovely ladies
That one brief second of silence, near the end after "sound" with his voices echoes fading......I want to live in that moment
Still makes the hairs stand up.on my arms everytime I hear it. Powerful singing that evokes emotion in people is so terrific!
performance was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! his voice is beautiful and haunting.....the piano stirs the soul.................the pounding bass drum is haunting and the orchestra fit the overall mood of the song beautifully and you both are adorable
I've been told Paul Simon called the band to tell them he loved their version.

This man was fighting the flu he's a metal singer and you need to see down with the sickness you will be able to see what they really sound like. My favorite song is stricken . Have a good time with this rabbit hole . Peace from Stan the Alaskan.
Or the other cover he did and my mind went blank and now I feel a little ashamed lol
No flu, that was rumor
Disturbed is one of the bands that actually sound like they do live.
Disturbed, and Volbeat also sounds even better live. :)
Apparently, Paul Simon loves this version too and that has to mean a lot.
not really he is just known to be nice........... you can't improve on a classic such a SoS ----comparatively this really sucks
@@GenX...MCMLXV I don't agree.
@@GenX...MCMLXV You are only entitled to You're own opinion, no matter how wrong it may be.
@@GenX...MCMLXV Alright. U do better. Clearly u think u can do better so let's see what u can do lmao
@@GenX...MCMLXV....Actually Paul is nice, but he also has a very dry personality and sense of humor, which is why he was a regular on SNL, and why others who don't know him, have claimed he is smug. He has never commented on any artist comver of one of his songs, and there are many, . He made a point to email Draiman simply saying, well done, I truly enjoyed your rendition of our song, and then Simon put a link to the video on a couple of his social media pages, So I don't think he was "just being nice" I'll give you a shiny pretty penny if you even know what the song is about.
i enjoy the friendship you two share ... Sabina shows pride in sharing her discoveries with Henri and it makes for an enjoyable watch! Thank you, Ladies!
David is just a unique singer. Put alot of grit, emotion, and Passion into his vocals. that's why every song he makes just blow you away. that man has been through some shit.
I can't tell you how many times I've watched this video. David's voice is incredible, pure in all of his unbelievable range. This was simply a great performance. BTW, love you two together, bright, engaging and oh so cute.
Thanks a lot!! 🤗
the best way to describe his voice is the folowing..."god asked him if he wanted the voice of an angel or a demon. his answer was simply 'yes'."
He puts alot of feeling heart and compassion into the song
Idk how you can listen to this without tearing up
You could definitely tell you two beautiful ladies were completely mesmerized by this performance. Loved the little smiles from you two when he belted out...
"And the people bowed and prayed, to the neon god they made".
This is the type of performance where the performer leaves you begging for more, when the song ends.
Great reaction.
Peace....
I can never decide which version I like more. The Conan appearance has a bit more power because the mixing isn't so controlled, but the official video is a flat out work of art, so beautifully mixed, and the story... oh the story...
And he was ill during this performance! David is a FANTASTIC VOCALIST!!!!
This version is Epic. One of the best covers ive ever heard.
You two are really cute chipmunks! This cover is on my permanent play list.
His voice is best described as POWERFUL in many different aspects!
You two are so beautiful! I loved watching your faces during the song. I can tell you both have strong emotiins.
I loved the way you both smiled in unison. So perfect.
This is one of the deepest most meaningful songs ever written. S&G made it an icon. When I first heard someone remade it I was very upset. I thought "you cannot duplicate perfection, who in the world had the guts to even try this, what an insult to S&G." So I listened to it with a negative attitude to start with. By "I've come to talk with you again" my eyes got wide, my mouth dropped open and I didn't take my eyes off the video. I am not normally a fan of remakes, particularly remakes of icon songs written by original artists and sung by original artists, there are just some songs that cannot be remade or perfected, and its insulting to me when people try. But this....THIS is the most incredible remake I have ever heard. I have probably listened to it a thousand times and I will never ever get tired of it. David Draiman brings more than justice to this song. I would think that S&G would give this a two thumbs up, or a full two hands up for that matter. This is out of this world. Talent over talent over talent. Incredible. Unique is putting it mildly, I can't take my eyes off of him. He is indescribable. The emotion in his face in the video is so deep and meaningful if it doesn't give you chills nothing will. An amazing gift to the music industry. He will be an icon for the rest of time because of this song. I am much too young to remember anything about S&G specifically, I sort of remember the split but never did find out what caused the rift. My older brothers are the ones who taught me an appreciation of that era of music and the history behind all of it, the protests, the war, Woodstock, the needless deaths in a country who didn't want us there to begin with, they aren't old enough to have been at Woodstock, the oldest was born in 1971, but they know their classic rock and 60's music, and I was singing that stuff since the age of 4 or 5 because they taught me not only the words but the meaning behind it ( it didn't really register for a couple more years when they were showing me videos of Woodstock and Vietnam and then we rented the movie "Platoon" and watched it when I was like 6 or 7 and it started to make sense) which my folks would have killed them for letting the little ones watch that LOL, and they taught me about the band members and what they did and their back stories. I was the only one in my 3rd grade class who knew Janis Joplin and Jimmy Hendrix died from an OD from Heroin and that Jimmy Hendrix played the Stars Bangle Banner on guitar, and what the meaning of the song "White Rabbit" was, let alone that mushroom was a hallucinogen and that 420 grew in the ground and how even back then they all thought it should be legal because what grows in the ground was put there by God for us to enjoy (and we all still believe that, but we live in the middle of the bible belt so its going to take some time to make 420 legal here but we will get there, just like the casinos) I wasn't born until 1980. But I can name the song and artist of nearly every song done in the 60's 70's and 80's and can sing them word for word. I hardly listen to 1990's music and beyond which my friends still think very strange because that's our era and I cannot get them to understand how important music was at that time, how it influenced the music industry forever and how that music in those era's changed our world forever, those bands and those artists changed this country and how we live. Elvis broke the seal yes, but it was that era that stole his crown for sure. It must have been an incredible time to have been alive and young then. My brothers say the same but we were too young for concerts, (or so our parents said) except the oldest two who were 16 and 17, they would have let them go probably, and we only hear about Woodstock and the war because my parents were just graduating college when the Vietnam war started and my father was in law school and his number never came up or he would have been drafted into that war so they were not at Woodstock but they tell us about it. The first concert I ever went to was the Rolling Stones "Steel Wheels" when I was 9 years and the oldest was 17, he got 8 tickets and the 7 youngest of us including me snuck out of our bedrooms which were all in a remodeled awesome basement for 8 kids with all separate bedrooms for everyone through the well windows, the boys pushed my oldest brothers car far enough down the street that our parents couldn't possible hear his car start because it was a loud sports car convertible, we all locked our bedroom doors and stuffed a bunch of pillows under the covers and he drove us there and it was one of the most incredible concerts. We all bought t shirts but it didn't hit us how we could ever wear them or they would know we went without permission, and even of the 16 and 17 year old had permission, which they didn't, how did all 8 of us suddenly get stones concert t-shirts, and there was no way they would have been allowed to take a 10, 11, 12, 14 and 15 year old by ourselves to a Stones concert, my parents weren't stupid they knew the Stones. I remember he told us the tickets were like 5.00 each then. Back then 5.00 to me sounded like a fortune, but we went and we never got caught. We all hid our t shirts and several years ago we all went and had them preserved so they will never get old and the material will not rot. Since I was the youngest, back then I would sometimes let things slip. They all warned me within an inch of my life if I ever let it slip or ratted them out I could never ride in their cars with them again. I have 5 older brothers, I was the youngest and the only girl 3 of the 8 of us. The two oldest, 16 and 17 each had what I thought were the coolest sports cars ever (and they were pretty cool, mustang convertibles, one red and one royal blue). I was officially the coolest kid in the entire grade school because from second grade on they always picked me up after school and always had a soda from a gas station and a snack for me every single day. My friends always would ask for rides but they never would take anyone else. My father always told them if they did he would take their keys away for one month. Such great memories, the oldest is only 8 years older than me so we are all under 50. We always make fun of my dad for not giving our poor mom a break in between kids. The biggest age spread is 2 years difference in between baby 4 and 5. Everyone else was born back to back. My dads family is boy heavy, I guess he was determined to have that first girl, but talk about cherished by my brothers and dad...I thank God my mother lived long enough to raise me. Had something happened to her I would be the most miserable spoiled rotten brat on this earth. She is the only one who ever would hand down any discipline to me at all, then she had a house full of pissed off men at her for the next few days. HA!
Thank you, wonderful interaction!
I was ten when Simon n Garfunkle released it. And to this day one of my favorites of all time. I am a musician and am a metal guy. Been a Disturbed since they hit the air. This version is stellar and of all the reviews i have watched, they seem very respectful and really enjoyed this version. Where others seem to grapple with the hidden desire of relevency but come across as clueless
Watching your faces while listening was all you needed to say, you said it all in your expressions. :)
I'm the exact same as Henri, and didn't know others were like this, but yes, I'll goes years listening to a song and not know what the lyrics are because I just love the melodies of it all together. I didn't know anyone else did this too! Most people I know can sing along with songs, not so for me. But I will instantly recognize and know a song within the first few notes.
The look on her face when the vocals started coming alive was very telling!
Best words I can describe his voice (POWERFULL)
I cant get enough of his voice
Your facial reactions say it all !!! This is an amazing cover of a brilliant song, 1st done by Simon & Garfunkel warning us, if we don't change our ways we are headed for destruction, and Disturbs version is angry, because we didn’t listen to the warnings... 😌 I always feel this song is like a rollercoaster ride....... slowly bringing you to the top, with nervous anticipation, then quickly crashing to the bottom, leaving a pit in your stomach.....Great reaction & I had a very similar reaction, to my very soul......
Awesome reactions! I watch these reaction videos looking to see the expressions of those reacting to it. To see them embrace the feeling going through them in the same places the piece of music grabbed me. When people keep stopping a piece of music, they can't totally grasp the total power of it as it was meant to flow from one stage to the next plateau! I enjoyed sharing this with you! You are also both very attractive, and the girl on the right has beautiful deep dark eyes!! Thank you for this video!
Just imagine the same show without him having the flu. Would have been even better. Still he killed it.
Watch the official music video. Zero difference in the sound of his voice (besides the usual between being edited and not). Being sick does nothing to affect David Draiman’s voice. The man is a musical god.
Amazing and gets better every time it’s played
4:21 it was the simultaneous smiles for me lol, cause I too smile at that point lol. The guy is amazing!
It was good seeing both your faces in that.
You 2 must go see them live 👍it will blow your minds wow.
Angelic is a good word for his voice it moves your soul :-)
It’s crazy how a Guy who Goes From KILLER SCREAMO VOCAL RANGE turns to SOOTHING MYSTICAL SOUNDS NOISES
It’s raw emotion; amazing.
My heart vibrates from this. The song of the century will ALWAYS be the one that makes you forget your damn body and remember the rest. I die on this hill
David of Disturbed, He was full of flu that night, but still producing a masterful performance! Creating tears if you work the words and official video, Ian from U.K. ❤
This performance here..is far better than the recording they have out. Get this version!
4:23 collective beautiful smiles ☺️
Yup, David Dramon is in the “top 100 vocalists of all time list”
His voice is powerful and hasn’t lost anything over the 20+ years...a true talent if I ever saw one
Yeah, leaves me speechless, too. No matter how many times I watch it.
I'd also watch the music video. It's captivating.
