This performance is pure perfection from beginning to end. Chills and tears every time. Nothing even comes close in my opinion. ❤
One reactor mentioned "look at his eyes." David really understood what he was signing and clearly meant it.
He was coming off of the flu and he said he could not turn down this live performance it must be done David nailed it
I heard that cast and crew who work behind the scenes on Conan all came out to watch this as soon as they heard the singer’s voice. Conan had never seen that done before. Everyone was paying attention and not talking. That was powerful.
Bone chilling and incredible ❤ Paul Simon said his version was a warning of what might be to come and Disturbed’s version is a reaction to no one heeding that warning. .
Apparently staff behind the scenes on Conan came running half way through wondering what the hell they were hearing. Amazing 😊
This is the best version out there in my opinion, I love Simon and Garfunkles too, but the desperation in this one hits in another way. 😢❤
I like the wrath/anger/grit that is added
If you dont get chills from this song, you are not breathing.
Dave's vocal range is quite impressive. That jump from the low tenor/baritone up to the tenor is sublime... 😘
His intonation when he sings "Hear my words that I might teach you. Take my arms that I might reach you" with the "you" that sounds like "yewwwww" and the last "...whisperrrr in the sound of silence..." those "ooo" and his rhotic "rrrr" so forward in his mouth gives it such a extra fierce feel 😡
p.s: the big drums? They're called timpani drums.
I love this version by Disturbed. I also love their songs "Hold On To The Memories", "The Light", "Indestructible" and "A Reason To Fight". Lots more great songs besides these.
Agree! I love “the light”
Yes!!
Indestructible is awesome 🤘
No matter how many times I have watched/heard Disturb's version of this timeless song, it never gets old. Thank you for sharing your reaction.
Great reaction!! I have read that David was hospitalized the night before due to illness hence reason why he’s sitting on chair entire performance. He has a beautiful voice and the entire band did an amazing job.
That really brings the words “the show must go on” to the max
David was in training as a cantor so yes he has had a classical education. I love this version of this song and I am a 77 year old that doesn’t really like this kind of music. But I do like the covers this band has done. ❤
Explains so much!
David's father and grandfather were/are Jewish temple cantors, so it runs in the family.
@@kennethcook9406yes I read that in an interview he said he grew up as a Jewish kid being taught to sing in temple.
It’s hot here today. Listening to this song I getting the chills. I’m in my 60’s and sort of grew up with S&G’s version. David Draiman killed it.
Simon n Garfunkal whispered this in 1960s few listened now it's being SCREAMED at us PLEASE LISTEN love peace n Respect to S & G xxx
David Draiman did for Sound of Silence what Johnny Cash did for Hurt... gave those beautiful songs the true voice that was meant for them. The originals were good, but their versions are masterpieces. Not only a delight for the ears, but also perfect vehicles for deep and meaningful lyrics.
This is one on the most incredible cover, his voice makes me tremble, I am a 67 yo grandma, your enthusiasm regarding his talent was palpable...he is a power house!!!
THIS version, is THE BEST I have ever heard! It is best when its just like this performance as far as live and in person with the vocals and tone David has in THIS version. Just awesome!
So glad you finally watched this one! This is such a truly rare find. A live version of a cover that is better then the original. No shade to S&G their song is incredible, but David's vocals just elevate this to a new level
I've heard this so many times and it still gives me goosebumps 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
The tears....let them Go!!!! Me every time tooo!!!! It's beyond words.....❤
Loved your reaction to this video! I've listened to this hundreds of times and I still feel that rush of emotion each time I listen.
The original song was the warning.
This version was the anger that humans didn’t heed the warning.
Pail Simon reaching out to David Draiman with his approval of the cover.
Amazing.....
OMG, the tissues I've 🤧 gone through since I discovered David Draiman and Disturbed performing their rendition of "The Sound of Silence" on April 29, 2024. That day I have to believe my spirit 🙏 guides (out of the blue) first led me to a cover video by Dan Vasc singing "Amazing Grace" which was phenomenal 👏 and then to the cover video of Disturbed and David Draiman singing this most POWERFUL, EMOTIONAL 😂rendition of Simon and Garfunkels "The Sound of Silence". I'm 75 and was 15 when they released one of the most popular classic songs of our time during the 60's. It is amazing how relevant it is today. Actually I feel it is even more relevant than ever in so many different ways. I've spent days since listening and seeing, you notice I didn't say viewing, the many channel hosts and each of their reactions and have 😢 almost every time. It's funny that more males have gotten teary-eyed than females, just an observation. Thanks from Diane
This version is so freaking powerful!! It's my favorite version of this song! ❤
P.S. the drums are timpani drums
Thank you Traci!
The drum is called a Timpani, also called a kettledrum. It typically has a foot pedal that allows the drummer to change the pitch of the sound. Basically tuning the drum note by note.
Between goosebumps, tears and I need to shave! lol you got this one right! I LOVE DAVID and his take on life, ….for him to choose this song of all is OUTSTANDING!!! I grew up with Simon & Garfunkel (folk music) I call it , to have my Favorite metals band to do this song says something about being 💋s “Disturbed” this band/ARTISTS THROW DOWN! Been to many Live concerts at ten of them DO NOT MISS SEEING THEM!! Total AHH AHH!
if you were ever going to go see a show, that would have been the one to see dude, total awesome. I've seen this 50 times or more, it's just so good, it never gets old
Professional singer that still goes on stage after being in hospital the night before and delivering a great performance. So well done 👍🇬🇧
Hi Nick! Great reaction. I've listened to this song many many times over and it brings tears to my eyes every time. Love this version and I don't think it will ever be matched again. Have a great day!
I was cleaning house one day with some sort of internet rock station on and Disturbed The Sound of Silence came on. I'd never heard of the group, never heard anyone but Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel do it. I grew up in the 60's hearing and loving them. Disturbed's version floored me. I've heard it dozens and dozens of times and still get chills and tears, every single time. Thank you for your reaction, I really enjoyed it. I'll go check out your other reactions.
I love the way it builds, vocals, piano, acoustic guitar, timpani and then full on strings. Awesome!
Notice in the last verse he's shaking his fist, adding his emotions he's feeling.
His lead guitarist was playing the piano for this performance. His drummer was playing the Timpani or more commonly known as Kettledrums.
FYI those are Kettledrums and yes they add soo much. They are a staple with in any symphony orchestra's referred to as a Timpani. One of my favorite percussion instruments of a orchestra. The depth and gravitas that they add to any musical piece really can't be replicated by any other instrument with in the the orchestra. When they are playing you will all ways feel and hear them no matter how many other instruments are playing at the time.
The sincerity of your reaction is touching and emotional! Thank you for being so honest.
I saw them in concert, and did this!!! IT WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!!!!
This version was my very first experience with Disturbed's cover of this song and I definitely felt the goosebumps too!
If you want to check out yet another cover of the Sound of Silence, Pentatonix has done one as well. I would say theirs falls more in line with Disturbed's take than with the original by Simon & Garfunkel. It's pretty impressive too! If you do choose to react to it, just be sure to do all the things to avoid copyright issues since their record label stays on top of that with reactors.
On a side note, don't ever apologize for pausing a video Nick. You are a reactor and as such, that is to be expected. If people want to watch the video uninterrupted, they need to go watch the original and let you and other reactors actually react.
I love the live version with Myles Kennedy too. They are amazing together.
I'll have to check it out!
I was just gonna say that ! I love Alter Bridge and Myles's voice.
I absolutely love your reaction to this!! The first time I listened to this I cried, which I was not expecting....I just felt overwhelmed with emotion. Love watching your reactions x
Oh this should be a good reaction bcuz this performance is PERFECTION!!!!!
Couldn't agree more
Almost every comment you made was exactly what I was feeling.. His voice is soft and strong and harsh and growling all in one... And the soft to medium to loud to angry creshendo is awesome...
I saw this performance as it was shown on the Conan show, having never heard this cover, and not knowing anything about Disturbed. I was just stunned. Now that I've had the chance to watch both this and the official video version a bazillion times, I always recommend that people watch the video first to get the full visual experience and listen to the perfect vocal performance that they got on tape. But then I always insist they come listen to this live one, because to me, it is more intense, more passionate, and even more beautiful than the studio version. Less technically perfect, but somehow better and more vibrant for the imperfections.
I think I like this more than the original. I've listened to many reactions to it.
That's a tympany drum.
Timpani
My favorite version of this song.
David on his worst day with the flu will always be 1000x better than anyone else on their best day. Yes he is classically trained. With his range, fry and training as a cantor, he is among THE most talented voices I've ever or will ever hear. 💯
i see it in you face. he got me so deep to. like chills, an in my soul.
Timpani or kettledrums (also informally called timps) are musical instruments in the percussion family.
Like you I have listened to both versions sooo many times. I think the official music video gives the recording huge depth and meaning and then when you watch this live version - well it just makes me cry every single time. Such amazing vocals with deep poignancy and feeling. Love it. Thank you.
In HoustonTexas 2011 Myles Kennedy and Disturbed did a live version of The sound of you should listen to In in Houston Texas Myles Kennedy and Disturbed did a cover of The Sound of Silence
I’ve heard the Simon and Garfunkel version described as a warning for the future and the Disturbed version (especially this live performance) as the rage at the warning unheeded.
I've listened to a lot of reviews on this particular song and the interesting thing to me is how everybody hears his voice and the music and the instruments and all of that I have yet to hear anybody talk about the meaning of the song and how important it is to back to feeling or relating to each other as human beings because that's really what the song is about.
I was privileged to tune into Conan this night. Had never heard of Disturbed, but instantly fell in love! Have since listened to most of their music and my appreciation has only grown exponentially. I do think that the video lends much to their interpretation of Simon’s lyrics in that it has a very positive ending with the music coming together with the lyrics. Thanks for your beautiful reaction.
Those are timpani drums or kettle drums. They are a huge part of the drama of this song. Love those drums in it!!! Orchestra also amazing. David is powerful!!! My favorite song now ever.
Hi, I subscribed to your channel today. One reason I watch your videos because you are not afraid to show your emotions. I love this song it brings out my every deep feeling and many tears. Thank you 😊 🙏 💓
Hoping u could do their live, A Reason To Fight also. Ty
Great reaction. The look on your face is exactly how i felt the first time i heard this. Gut punched.
I grew up hearing the original. Simon Garfunkel came at it from a folk version whereas Disturbed approached it more from an angry standpoint. So impactful.
Disturbed version is better then oryginal, period. Can't help it, but that is what i feel. David's progression through the song is so meaningful for the lyric. Love it.
Absolutely agree best version ever. I got goosebumps the first time I heard it and that doesn't happen to me often
the power of music ... it is universal
Loved it! I think I prefer this version just for texture of David’s voice. The video hit differently because of the visuals but is beautiful in its own right.
I have always enjoyed Simon and Garfunkel. This version by Disturbed is excellent. When I first listened to this, I was totally blown away. I've watched it numerous times since. There is however one other version of this song that you really should check out. Geoff Castellucci has recently done another version of this song. It's totally different than either Garfunkel or Disturbed and well worth watching.
Well said!
Great reaction! There are 2 more fantastic versions of this song out there. One is at a Disturbed concert where Myles Kennedy does the second “Garfunkel” voice. Absolutely epic. And the second is Dan Vasc performing this version as well. I understand that you might not want to keep reacting to this version, but at least enjoy it privately as I know you will appreciate them.
I saw Dan Vasc's cover yesterday and it blew me away.
As I recall, the live performance was the one that Paul SImon commented on.
Hi Nick love watching you react to both versions you have watched. I love them nothing as well. You should check out the live concert version of David singing this song with Miles Kennedy. Amazing❤
I appreciate your appreciation! The goosebumps are ever present
I have watched so many reactions to this song, and I feel like yours. Best describes how he sang this song, and how he is trying to teach us more about this song that I have ever heard before.
Hey bro!!! I got You. This is not just a cover. This is a tribute. And David is doing this with passion and respect. Love this. Thanks. Greettings from Argentina. Sorry for my English
This cover and this particular performance is like a religious experience. I love it every time I hear it. It never gets old!❤
Die Stimme streichelt den ganzen Körper, Gänsehaut pur ❤
I agree to be in that audience and then this !!! Amazing mind blowing performance.
It is a timpani drum that is being used.
This is by far the best cover I've ever heard done. But if you can believe it, there's a version of this that goes to another level.
David does this song as a duet with Myles Kennedy (from Alter Bridge) and it's incredible.
Timpani drums! Great touch!
The video version is almost a nihilistic brutalist thing, this live version hits chill inducing visions of 1984.... A complete masterpiece that is a diametric opposite of the original.
Great reaction as always 👍
Well, now you'll have to check out the live version of Disturbed with Myles Kennedy.
Geoff Castellucci also did this song. It's very beautiful.
I absolutely love their cover. If I listen to it once, I have to listen to it at least 5 more times, plus some reactions. Great review ❤
Thank you so much Evelyn!
This is a gift that keeps on giving every time it's listened to . A true gift to us all !
I forgot to mention that David Draiman was really sick for the Conan live performance and I heard he was not pleased with his performance, being the perfectionist that he is I can understand why he felt that way. However, the production as a whole was amazing and his performance was EXCEPTIONAL! I loved it. So POWERFUL and EMOTIONAL! Thanks, Diane
Disturbed "The Sound Of Silence" 03/28/16 | CONAN on TBS
Team Coco
Live version is the best... Such pure capture of the words and emotion of this song...
David had a lision on his vocalcord because of a heavy cold. He had 50 mg Prednison in his body to get the swelling down and he has a specialist on call in case something would happen with the lision
Imagine scoring tickets to the Conan show and this is the musical guest!
Those drums are called 'Kettle Drums'. Excellent review !
One major bit he did not have a cold. He had a bleeding lesion on his vocal cord but said "I promised to do this so I'm doing it"
Good you got to see both. I love seeing and hearing David in the Conan version. He is just so good. The other version is excellent too, but in a slightly different way because if the visuals I think bith versions are excellent. .
Shinedown's cover of "Simple Man" is right up there!
Simon an Garfunkel was warning everybody about TV's and how people would set in front and watch them all day, like zombies, today it's the cellphone that has everybody turned in zombies, wow
Paul Simon said the original song was a warning, he said this version is because we didn't heed the warning. He has also said this version is better (probably because of the times).
I got to see them perform this live on their tour this summer. Even more amazing to see it in person.
The Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel is sad resignation.
The Sound of Silence by Disturbed is DAMMIT!
Got to hear this live this summer. Nothing like a Disturbed concert
The drums used in this song I known as timpani, also known as kettledrums Allman brothers also use them
Hi Nick i first watched this 2 weeks ago and i swear my mouth was open the whole time LOL. my goosebumps had goosebumps!
Haha well said Diana!
Your heart would just explode hearing this for the first time.
I, too have watched this performance many times. It's all great but the two moments that sealed it for me were "songs" @4:49 and "Sounds" @7:42. as a 50+ year old I was not a Listener of Disturbed before this. now I am.
I appreciate you for the work you do for us needing.
He was running fevers and he stated how awful he felt. The show wanted to use auto-tune since he was singing live. He was very upset with them because he said absolutely not! They did it at a part anyway and he was pissed at them. I dont6have a trained enough ear to know where that part is but I'm sure a vocalist could point it out.
You know, there is one subject,that none of you people making reaction videos to this video touch on.
That really proves how great and powerful this performance truly is.
And that's the reaction of the crowd watching this performance.
They were ALL totally hypnotized by this great performance.
That it took them all a full second to come out of it and start cheering.
This cover, and this performance moves me so much, like I can see it does you! Like I said when you reacted to the MV, I had just discovered it then too. I listened to it so many times, couldn't stop for about a month. It's great to waqtch it with you again! 💜
