While I loved Simon and Garfunkels version as I heard it only by them alone. But since listening to this artist I heard the emotions in the words. I could feel as he was feeling. Disturbed brought the power of the song out for everyone to see and enjoy. One of those rare artists who can convey the emotions in a song. Powerful. Yes he has grit and power but he also puts his whole heart into it. Magnificent.

I happened to turn over to Conan just as he was introducing the group and the song they were going to sing. I have listened to many other groups sing on late night shows, usually turning the channel in disapointment. I don't know if it is the poor quality of sound stage or the groups do not bring their A game. So, this night, like many others, I started to listen with skepticism. I had not heard of this band before. Well this little country girl was soon educated by these burly powerful guys. The music was rich and of perfect pitch and tempo. And David! He pronounced every syllable completely and oh so clearly. He poured hid heart, soal, lifeblood into it. I was brought to tears. This was a true theatrical performance worthy of the Broadway stage. I repeated the song a dozen times and I just heard more and more beautifully dark and gut wrenching meanings hidden within the words. So, I searched to see if they had a video recording... and they did...

Excellent review, thank you so much. My feelings are that Paul Simon was an incredible visionary... David Draiman just took his amazing lyrics and sang them for the 21st century audience, exposing how lost and shallow we have all become. “‘Fools,’ said I, ‘You do not know, Silence, like a cancer, grows, hear my words 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.” (Paul Simon)

This is an excellent rendition of Paul Simon’s song. What makes this song so special is that it was written in the mid sixties and is still relevant to this day. In fact the poignant aspect of Paul’s message was ahead of it’s time when you consider the advances in electronic communication and the negative cause and affect of the influence and impact it has on our society.

Very nice honest commentary on all of the renditions of this song and its "re-birth". I will say I do enjoy the live version by David better than the video, it is so much more moving than the video. To see a voice on loan from God so masterly played I can understand why Paul Simon was so moved to reach out to David after this performance. To be praised so highly from the original creator of the song could only have happened by seeing the pure emotion on David's face in this epic performance. Disturbed is good with the Gritty stuff as well, but how would they do with say "Imagine" a Beetles song like "Yesterday"? Hmmm?

Thanks for reacting to this. I love their video for this. I have trouble deciding if I like Disturbed or PTX's version best. It's almost not fair to compare them. Disturbed's version is more angry and PTX's is hopeful (not talking about anyone else comparing them, just me). There's another version I like, not sure if you've seen it. Peter Hollens and Tim Foust from Home Free do a decent job, but IMO not as dynamic as the others. A bit closer to the original.

I truly love Pentatonix,and have listened to them for a number of years. That being said, TO ME, their cover of this sounded like they were almost trying to do Disturbed's version of the song. They did well, but it was not one of my favorites, from them. No matter how many times I listen to Disturbed's version, I still get tingle's, and hold my breath as he does the build up. I just don't get that from PTX. As I said, they did a good job, but TO ME, it just doesn't compare.

Two comments I see on almost every reaction to this: 1. The original song was like a warning while the Disturbed version was anger that the warning wasn't heeded. 2. Apparently the producers on Conan added some auto-tune to this performance because the singer had been ill, and the singer was so angry about this decision that he walked out of an interview with them. (I haven't seen a source or evidence for this story it is just something I see in the comments of every reaction.)

his-bean I understand that. What I’m trying to say, very badly I guess, is that David is a full Baritone with a 4+ octave range and while not classically trained he did train to be a Cantor so he he has superb control of his instrument. Many people in the comments are making it sound as if the only way he could have sung that song so beautifully was with the help of auto tune which is simply not true. Disturb’s “A Reason to Fight” is another example of his range and beauty.

With this, I just love David's grit and emotion, and if you love him you are probably really going to like a lot of symphonic metal. I already gave you a good one but if you want to start in a different spot that is a bit less in your face, you could do Floor on Vilja Leid off the Best Zangers show. It is a TV show that a lot of countries have where 7 really awesome singers get together, get to know each other, and then do covers of songs that are either written by, or that mean a lot to the artist. they didn't really know Floor and she surprised the heck out of them kzitem.info/news/bejne/zZmCrWmOaptjhII

The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good. 2 The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God. "Hear my words that I might teach you. Take my arms that I might reach you" Matthew 11 “Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.” "But my words like silent raindrops fell and echoed in the wells of silence" John @ “He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.” "And the people bowed and prayed to the neon god they made, and the sign flashed out its warning, and the words that it was forming, and the sign said, the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls and tenement halls, and whispered in the sound of silence" Luke 16 “And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.” Acts 17 30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: 31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead. Romans 3 "And the way of peace have they not known: There is no fear of God before their eyes. Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified FREELY by his GRACE through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation THROUGH FAITH IN HIS BLOOD, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus....Romans 10 "For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth...But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of FAITH, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt BE SAVED. For with the heart man believeth UNTO righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made UNTO salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed." Romans 1 “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.” "Silence...like cancer grows" Romans 10...So then faith cometh by HEARING, and hearing by THE WORD OF GOD...How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not HEARD? and how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! 💌

The original by Simon & Garfunkel, was a warning of what was to come, if we did not change our ways, & Disturbed's version, is anger, because we did not heed the warning....... ❤ One of the best covers in my opinion ❤️

Some other commenters suggested that Simon & Garfunkel version was a warning about where our culture was changing for the worse. Disturbed version was angry that what was warned about has come to pass - there is almost a sense of betrayal and outrage in the arrangement. PTX is maybe more hopeful? Just 5 different people coming together to make beautiful harmonies. Maybe they showcase what we have potential to do if we come together.
