I’m 71. I lived though all of the music from the 60’s. To me this is the song best represents the 60s. Disturbed version is different... although the words are the same it’s a different experience... the message is different. Heavy. Simon and Garfunkel’s songs message was perfect for the 60’s, Disturbed’s versions timing is perfect for this disturbed world.

I'm with you brother. We're the same age ... almost. I'm 72 but heard this song when it was first released. Then I went to Vietnam with the Marine Corps. Somehow, when I hear David Draiman's rendition, I become more grounded and a sense of peace prevails. I'm not sure why but I suspect it explains the rage I feel that we never listened to S&G's warning back then.

The lead singer is classically trained and actually was a cantor for three years in Israel.

"Hello darkness my old friend, I've come to talk with you again" Paul Simon wrote this song in the 60's to describe peoples want to talk over others, but never listen to what the others have to say. Hence the line "People talking without speaking, people hearing without listening." He was a 20 something year old wanting to reach out to people and get them to understand one another. "take my voice that i might teach you, take my arms that i might reach you. But my words, like silent raindrops fell, and echoed in the wells of silence."

Respectfully, I disagree. The song was written in the 1960's. The era of counterculture where questioning authority became the norm. This included challenging the government's explanations for it's actions and not blindly accepting them as truth. This was seen in the protests and civil unrest over America's involvement in the Vietnam War. Set to a folk song tune, the words seem to be reminding everyone of the dangers of remaining silent on government policy; that a lot can be lost if we simply let it happen and don't stand up and protest. Fast forward 50 years and Disturbed's version of the same message is delivered in a much more angry fashion. Sort of "you didn't listen 50 years ago, now look where we are." It's a reminder of the age-old message that the only thing evil needs to triumph over good is silence by those watching. American poet Ella Wheeler Wilcox put it best when she wrote: "To sin by silence, when we should protest, Makes cowards out of men." My two cents, any way. Keep up the great work Sushi!

jhowe67 I watched a interview with Paul Simon. He did write the song as a kind of protest but it was not against any Government or anything like that nor was it a prophecy. He wrote is because no record company would even give his songs a chance. The record companies said the “songs” were unsuitable for that time and age. But the song is one of the very rare ones where it did suit things in the 60’s and suits things now and will probably suit things 50 years from now. Love both versions lol

And no, they don't need to pause that much for copyright issues. Check a reactor out called DancingCoder, and see what he does. I like that a lot more than all the pauses.

Good. If they dident so that we never wouldve got the Gem that is Disturbed

The original version was a warning against the rise of technology (Television / now 'social media') - causing less and less 'human' interaction (think about how people brag they have 6,000 'friends' on Facebook, or how people will 'text' someone whom is literately sitting next to them, rather than just 'talk' to them). Disturbed's version is equated to the 'rage' of someone because those warnings were not listened to - and how its becoming so 'uncomfortable' to even just 'talk' to someone without worrying about offending or being offended, because it feels easier to just 'use social media' instead of our own voices. The short version is its a warning about humanity losing what makes us 'human' - and instead embracing the 'neon god' (tech) which lets us 'communicate' but also leaves us in silence - and in turn is making us forget HOW to communicate with each other.

Someone on Sushi's staff should update her on the history of this song. Not sure she's ever heard of Simon and Garfunkel. Disturbed's version is amazing. So is the original. It was written shortly after JFK assassination.

The song's lyrics are haunting. How I've always interpreted it as the death of the soul with the loss of connection with each other. We're so busy focusing on getting more, being more, having more...even more so with all the technology available these days-plugged into our phones when we're next to each other.

Chris Stapleton, 'Sometimes I Cry', and his cover of James Brown's, 'Mans World'!

Powerful! Extremely intense and I love it! Your heartbeat increases, you “feel” the words and the instrumentals gives you goosebumps!! This mans voice makes you want to weep....dam!

This was originally written and performed by Simon and Garfunkel in the 60’s. It’s a very prophetic song because it’s speaking about people worshipping technology over human contact. Which wasn’t even around in the 60’s. People say the original was warning us and this version by Disturbed has an angry vibe because it’s telling us now and we didn’t listen. Idk but man...this is hauntingly beautiful

I am always in awe of the way he has manipulated his voice to take you on a journey and forces you to pay attention to the words... I hope we all learn someday to take these words and use them to make changes. We all need to take a week and step away from social media. Video games. TV. Maybe even cell phones. And instead visit with our neighbors. Our relatives. Our friends. Really visit. Spend time with these people and be truly present.

I have to say, I absolutely love watching you "feel" the music. I love that you let yourself go, to experience the power of music. It's truly a beautiful thing to watch.

That is a cover that Disturbed is doing. He is a Classically trained singer. He does one of the best renditions of this song I've heard. The original is by Simon and Garfunkel from 1966.

This is my favorite cover of this song. I like it more the Simon and Garfunkel's. It's honestly the first time I "felt" the song.

My mom always said “if a person shows you something you enjoy thank them “.Thankyou. my twin brother and my son would have loved this video

If you cannot fill his voice tearing at you soul then you have lost your zest for life.I first herd this about 6 months ago and just kept playing it over and over brilliant.

I could watch this a million times....so fantastic!

This was one of the first songs I remember hearing. It came out when I was a kindergartner, and my parents had the album and played the grooves off of it. I remember as a little kid thinking that the first line was, "Out of the darkness smiled a friend."

This song is an emotional experience and you could literally see the emotions in your natural reaction to it. Not many songs in the world can do that.

You know what I loved about this reaction? You were so captured by the music, so stunned by what you were seeing and hearing that you couldn't stop the music. You spoke when you had something to say and that's all. Respect and thanks for sharing this song with all of us who love it so much. Cheers

Like a stone is one of my favorite audioslave songs.

The hair stood up on my arms as I watched you get pulled into the song

I would argue that David is probably the best male vocalist alive today

Here is info about the song.... "The Sound of Silence", originally "The Sounds of Silence", is a song by the American music duo Simon & Garfunkel. The song was written by Paul Simon over several months in 1963 and 1964. A studio audition led to the duo signing a record deal with Columbia Records, and the song was recorded in March 1964 at Columbia Studios in New York City for inclusion on their debut album, Wednesday Morning, 3 A.M..

When you're doing a reaction video and the silence is the reaction.... No matter how many times I hear this I still get the chills.

"The sound of silence... ooh-ah-ah-ah-AH!!"

The singer of disturbed has had his voice studied by singing coaches and that most could not pull of his tone with that much strength repeatedly without damaging their vocal chords..theres a trick he learned to make those almost soothing raspy vibrations that make singers lose their voice, not effect him at all his voice is better from when he first became mainstream which was about 15 years ago..his voice has not deteriorated at alll, it only gets better but if even a pro singer attempted his style, they would develope permanent damage over time. not my words, lots of high profile singing coaches that major artists hire say the same thing..the original singer says "hello darkness my old friend, because when he practiced in the dark he was more comfortable and able to concentrate om his voice..then he starts talking sbout a vision in his dream that wont leave his mind..its about how people are becoming shallow and dependent on technology and expensive material possessions that mean nothing untill someone sees them on a advertisement or billboard..the original song is old and all the lights used to draw attention to a product were neon.."people bowed and prayed to the neon god they made" hes describing being materialistic.."people talking without speaking, people hearing without listening" hes saying people are not spreading a meaningful message and that the content of music is becoming dumbed down because peoples lyrics are loosing depth and becoming trash because everyone just wants to listen to a good hook and beat but dont absorb the lyrics so artists dont need to put effort into lyrics and the songs never shared are the ones that are musical works of art but they go unnoticed because people are are becoming more and more shallow and dumbed down. he saw a patttern in our behavior that worried him about the future of humanity..his prophecy came true..all people care about is what designer brand is trending or look at how mumble rap lacks complexity, meaning, the only message is drugs, money, thots and jewelry..its the epitome of shallow

Thanks for the education. I mean it. As much as I loved Simon & Garfunkel - and especially this song - I must admit that never in all my years did I pay as much attention to the lyrics as I should have. In my ignorance, I simply put the lyrics down to how people can become absorbed by crass consumerism. From your comment it was much, much more insidious than that. Much more. Thank you.

@@tompurcell1499 He used alot of metaphors, I tried to interpret it..i thought it was about people being distracted with TV and not communicating with loved ones or maybe religion and how youd have to remain silent about blasphemous thoughts or ideas because of the god line and "no one dared disturbedf the sound of silence", out of fear of being shunned..but i researched it and found multiple theories but nothing from the source or close to it and found out the original writer spread misinformation about the meaning of the song. Then i finally find a credible source site that had the interview with a close friend and he explained what he was told but felt there was more but he didnt push the issue. Theres celebrity voice coaches on youtube who will analyze singers ppl request to see if they are legit, the 3 i watched were blown away and didnt believe the singer of disturbed could actually be doing that without just dismantling his career time with his voice but his voice has remained strong..He covered this song flawlessly and i loved it b4 it was remade but the soft almost haunting sound of the song didnt demand the full capability of his talent..youre welcome..it took me a while to find the right source so i just wanted people to realize how accurate and significant this song is..True work of art

@@freethinker9153 Some songs can convey different interpretations, I suppose. As it happens, as a result of your comment, I went onto a voice coach's channel and she first thought that David Draiman was using auto-tune (which I never heard of before). However, I think she ended up accepting his voice as the real thing. But thanks for your info. All the best!

@@tompurcell1499 you are very right about songs being interpreted in many ways depending on the times, events or what the individual listener draws from them..and a bar from a song can hit multiple subjects and whatever you are going through or have been through which will influence your interpretation..especially deep songs and not simplified direct trash

To quote another viewer on another reaction video to this song: Simon and Garfunkel warned us. Disturbed told us we haven't been listening.

But this song is amazing at showing off his vocal talents. It’s incredible.

I love watching someone else's face display the emotion I feel when hearing this song.

-Draiman covers roughly two-and-a-half octaves from bottom to top. His vocals are so distinctive. -Disturbed had been nominated for a GRAMMY for Best Rock Performance for their rendition of "The Sound of Silence" while appearing on Conan. -David: "The fact that I was sick as a dog (laughs). I remember I was definitely fighting something off, but it was a cool experience. It was cool performing with an actual orchestra. It was really vibing and the mood helped, I think, enhance the delivery. The stars just aligned that night and everything went right." -

The acoustic version of this on Conan is epic!

You should watch other talk shows where he performed. Conan and his producers insisted on adding a small bit of autotune to the mic to make it sound better for TV. He didn't want that. I'm not saying to say it wasn't good at all, just I believe it's better without the autotune. Check it out
