Sori's reaction actually brought tears to MY eyes. Epic song, amazing woman.

I am a 70 year old Great Grandmother, had never heard of Disturbed, I have watched at least 11 reviewers just this afternoon of this song. Each and every time I hear it I get goose bump and tear up. There is something in the way they have done this song that is so very touching. I decided to listen to more of thier music because of the choices in songs.

I'm 78 grandmother and I've been listening and watching this for the last few days and I get chills, goosebumps, forget to breathe. People say Simon and Garfunkel sent a message but Disturbed is yelling because nobody listened. WOW They are now.

That fact that she doesn’t even watch the whole video and just his voice can cause that type of beautiful reaction is powerful.

As a man who lives with bipolar and schizophrenia, it is a song that I put on when I start to lose the battles with my hallucinations or depression side of things. Sometimes both. It took me years to do it, but I found the strength to open up about my illnesses and I no longer hide them. It has cost me friends, because I refused to put up a poker face and play happy, but it has also kept me safe from myself. As I told someone else... it took me breaking the sound of silence and getting help that saved my life. When someone lives with depression in silence... they will die and it likely will be by their own hand.

He was trained as a cantor, not in opera. Cantors lead services and sing service music, and they may seem indistinguishable from a cantorial soloist, who may also do those things. Both may have very good singing voices, and both may have had extensive musical training. The cantor, however, has something extra: a deep background in Jewish worship and Hebrew language, knowledge of both present and past liturgies, and training in leading and teaching a wide variety of Jewish musical forms. A cantor is clergy, qualified to officiate at all lifecycle events (weddings, funerals, namings) and to provide pastoral support.

He feels things deeply but expressed it differently. I get that Vin is much the same way. He sits like a stoic and thinks through his emotions, and puts them to words, but he always wants Sori to go first.

Her's is the most pure reaction one can have to a song like this. It's a testament to David Draiman's voice. I'm a full grown man and when that song reaches apex I feel my chest grow tight, my skin prickle, and my vision waters. It really is a masterpiece of a cover of an already beautiful song.

I couldn't see or hear anything else but David's powerful voice. Imagine a bunch of metalheads, with their cellphones or lighters raised, people crying, singing this song at one voice. It was something I will never forget. I felt my chest warm and my eyes were literally crying. Right at that moment this song became the best cover of a classic song I've ever heard.

First time I heard this song, I can only describe it as one if those moments where you realise you're witnessing something important. Or like... You're witnessing part of the "something bigger" that gives our lifes significance. Something you're otherwise too distracted to notice 98% of the time.

I get goosebumps every time I hear this, and I’ve heard it a lot.

Paul Simon phoned Disturbed to tell them that this was the best cover of his song that he ever heard.

The first time I heard him sing this song, it chilled me to the core of my being, that a hard rock/heavy metal artist could take a 1960s folk song and make it his own is absolutely fantastic, his power, his passion, his intensity, his incredible range, his ability to make you feel the music, he is a musical genius, pure and simple.

Omg you two nailed it. Your experiences from the song were so different but so right! Vin nailed the meaning behind the song. Sori was affected by the song in a way that illustrated perfectly exactly how he logically described it. Touched.

Vin, I loved how you saw in this, “God’s words” 💓 Sari, I appreciated your thoughts (sorry for your pain)😢 I too hear and listen... and have yet my own interpretation. It truly is an individual experience. That’s the beauty of a great song, and an incredible singer! 😇 Simon and Garfunkel 👍🏻 👍🏻 “disturbed” ....I think they brought this to a whole new level of intensity and greatness!😊

After watching hundreds of reaction videos most people who tear up or cry are men, is so refreshing to see a Lady cry to it. There's something special about his voice which just brings out the emotions. Obviously the lyrics and music has a very important part but omg his voice just does it to so many it's unbelievable.

It’s ok, tears ran down my face the first time I heard this version of the song. I still well up every time I hear it

At the end when they sat in the STUNNED SILENCE...i feel ya

If there are ever awards for reactions, you would have my vote. I could see the exact moment the song touched, no grabbed, your soul. Thank you for such a touching reaction!

I cry every time. This song is a religious experience.

Holy shit her description was just simply EPIC

As often as I've heard this, it still gives me chills.

My personal experience is you don't listen to this song you EXPERIENCE this song.. It reaches down to your inner being!! ❤️ So freaking amazing!! 💖

This song was written in the 70s. He was predicting how life world would be for us. We speak on our phones (not speaking ) nobody to listen ( no reaction) songs not being heard they’re on our phones. The neon god we made Technology the most important thing our lives. Here we are in 2022 !!! When Paul Simon heard this version he told David this was now his song

When he say no one dares disturbed the sound of silence. I thought he was talking about how people don't like to rock the boat with social norms, so they rather follow the crowd then be looked at as different or an outcast. The truth isn't relevant when the lie is more comfortable.

Sori, what a beautiful soul.

Ive watched many react to this video and various takes on its meaning but yours by far was i thought was the best and most well expressed. I am a child of the 60s and remember the original well and the profound meaniing then and how it is even more prophetic now.

I LOVE your reaction to this song! The emotions, the deep thoughts you shared, the exchange with each other...all of it. Fantastic reaction! Thank you, and keep it up. ♡

They played it on a veterans day, it broke my heart see a lot of them with tears in their eyes at the end of this Song....the horror they must seen in their past...

One of the brilliant things about this song is the duality of the two main themes. Both light and sound are shown in two ways. There's the light of the neon god, the grand distraction, versus the natural light that actually reveals the truth. There's the silence that arises from the screaming of the gears of our ephemeral empires, against the true silence where introspection can arise. The abject social isolation, the dehumanization of the technological, is clearly stated here, and has only grown more poignant as we go further down the road in the direction of the neon god. Solid 10. The great songs echo down the years, because they talk about experiences that will always be part of being human.

Wished I could thumbs up a bunch for this comment.

It is classic that the usual "reaction" to this band performing the Sound of Silence is normally ... SILENCE! It truly takes a few seconds to take it all in. It builds, and builds, and builds then it is over and it requires a few seconds for the brilliance to set in.

"…we have people unable to touch other people, unable to love other people. This is a song about the inability to communicate." -Paul Simon I would have liked to hear this with Lzzy Hale in a harmony situation. He's worked with her in the past, and they sound amazing together. Also, the original conveyed the same message without being heavy-handed, BUT! Paul Simon himself actually liked the cover, so I'll default to the author's opinion on the matter.

Such a powerful song. Hearing this makes you sit back and think of loneliness and changing your life. Well done❤

I can listen to this song over and over. I still cry. The song is about our lives being lost to the beginning of the media. Paul Simon had this dream back in the 60s. The neon light represents the introduction of television. The musicians were no longer able to Express their feelings without being censored. Us as a world must take a stand to be able to Express how we feel without the media interference.

That was one of the most beautiful reactions to any song I have ever experienced, that was a honest reaction to a beautiful song that has been redone in a beautiful way.

I can't believe it took me this long to find you guys! Your reactions were so pure and heartfelt, that I cried along with you, though, if I'm being honest, with a song this amazing, who couldn't? So thank you!, for sharing, and being the amazing people you are, and letting us experience such a powerful experience with you. On a huge side note, I thought you should know, if you watch your video at 4:32 (or just watch the original song or check the lyrics) that Disturbed snuck their band name and song title into the lyrics themselves as a small easter egg for people to catch! ".. and noone dared 'Disturbed the sound of silence' " :)

look at us (most today) staying and looking at their phones...We speak with out Speaking(texting) we no longer have intimate interaction..I went out to eat and watched families staring at their phones instead of talking with each other..so sad...cell phones and social media has made us all numb...so sad

This is the most genuine heartfelt reaction of this song ive seen you earned a subscription

Over 50 years old and this song is still sadly so relevant, if not even more so.

Even the initial piano chords set the tone for this beautiful piece of soul wrenching magnificence... 🇿🇦

Her face blushing tells raw emotion..I get goosebumps everytime I hear this and feel a great empathy from all the reactions of this song.

Matias Dimter they are both very great

5:06 touching how the first tear she shed was to the lyric “like silent raindrops fell”

Sori nailed it when she said " I probably don't have a clue what the song is about, but I have my own story.." Music, sometimes, isn't just about trying to understand the deeper meaning of it, or trying to get yourself to see the "art" behind it. Sometimes, music is a personal language that is speaking to you in your own way. This song might have meant something to Simon and Garfunkel, and something different to Disturbed, but it means something else to her, and that is what I think makes music so personal and healing. It is your own medicine, your own message and voice. Cheers Sori!

His live performances on Conan was INCREDIBLE Also this is a song written and performed by Simon and Garfunkel. I believe it was Simon who had this dream. And it is amazing to hear the original version and go to this afterwards

Experienced. That is the only word to describe hearing this song. You don’t “listen” to it. You don’t dance to it. You EXPERIENCE it. S&G gave us the poetry, David Draiman gave us the warning

I have to say Sori your reaction is what i looked like on the inside when i first heard this song! Amazing Reaction! by far my fav of any chan. ever!
