I'm over 70 years old, so I remember when Simon and Garfunkel released this song. I was not overly optimistic when I heard of this cover. But when I heard it my jaw dropped, they had taken the original and transformed it from a warning to a condemnation!!! It hit hard because it pointed out how my generation had failed to fulfill the dreams we had!!

I have watched hundreds of reactions to this song and it never gets old. David comes from a long line of Jewish Cantors. He was professionally trained to preserve his vocals but on a human note, he is not tattooed out of respect for his heritage, especially his grandfather and removes his piercings when with them. Mad respect to his talent as well as to the man. On the Conan live he actually had to sit. He had just been. Released from the hospital, still had fever and yet. Delivered what was a spectacular performance! Simon said its as much David's as his now. Theirs was a warning....David's is what happens and the anger because the warning wasn't heard...

The original song by Simon and Garfunkel was a warning to people, this version is the result of nobody listening to that warning. This one gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it and I’ve heard it about 100 times. I really love how Disturbed treated this cover and kept it true to the original, so many bands would have turned it into something more akin to the genre they usually do and the song would loose all meaning. Great reaction to a great cover.

@Ryan Critchlow - I'm a bit of a purist when it comes to song remakes... but I recently discovered this one, as well as their cover of Land of Confusion. Both songs were fantastic as originals, but I have to admit, Disturbed took them both to another level. I think your assessment about the original and the cover being "Warning" and "result of ignoring the warning" is spot on. When I saw the video for Land of Confusion, I called my wife into the room, and said, "This is the most 'Pink Floyd's The Wall' video without actually being made by Pink Floyd"... She didn't argue with me about that viewpoint. Honestly, I'm only recently getting into 90s metal, post Grunge. I always loved 80s "hair metal", and the offshoots of it from that time, until the early 90s. I was in my 20s from 1987 until 1997, but the music didn't really connect with me at the time. I don't know why, but it's really hitting me now, in my mid 50s.

Of course I remember the video. Always enjoyed S & G back in the day but big fan of Rock since the 60s. Current favs are still the FooFighters, Imagine Dragons, Daughtry, and still appreciate Metallica and Pantera. Still a huge Rolling Stones fan. I’ve watched several of Disturbed’s live concerts on YT. I know a lot about lead singer David Draiman, but everything was covered by other comments, but no one mentioned that when this video came out in 2015, Paul Simon reached out to the band and practically said that they now own that song. He was quite pleased!

He doesn't drink or join in the get togethers after the show because after two hours of singing he has to protect his voice and can't be trying to talk over people. He said it was like being a monk. Hearing Disturbed sing this song was also my first introduction to this band. Heard it inside a convenience store. The clerk had it playing. I couldn't get enough of listening to it. It was awesome. I don't usually listen to heavy metal but there was something about this man and this song. It was just awesome.

Without it it really lacks the true "soul" of the song.

David Draiman (singer here) sang this live on Conan's show (when he was recovering from a virus). Amazing. You're right that this is not the typical Disturbed metal song, but Disturbed's cover is retelling the story that S&G predicted nearly 60 years ago. Their lyrics tell of a society losing touch with one another, but in a softer folk-rock way. Disturbed's Draiman makes clear that their prediction was right and condemns what we've become. It seems more relevant today than it was in the mid-'60s. Our society is much more disconnected today. As someone who bought the original S&G album, I refused to listen to this cover for months. My mistake. Paul Simon himself said he loved Disturbed's cover. Thanks for playing and reacting.

I've read it mused that S&G's version was a campy and fun way to reminding us all that as humans we need to learn to communicate more and not just bury our heads in TV and other such media to caution us against what the world could look like if we don't try to talk to each other. Disturbed's version is anger and despair because we didn't fkn listen!

I'm an 84 year old great grandma. I've listened to this recording so many times I've lost track. I get goose bumps, and sometimes tears, every time I listen to it. I've requested it to be played as I die and take my last breaths, which I hope is a long time away. David is the best!!

I have also requested it to be played upon my death And requested that everyone learn every word of it And sing it as loud as they possibly can

You should def check out their live performance on Conan. It's even better than the official music video.

78 year old female here...I graduated high school when this song originally came out (1964). It was a "cute ditty" that really did not resonate with any of my age group...yeah, S & G got a new hit, yeah, it's cool, just sing along...snore. When I heard Disturbed's version a couple of years ago, I just sat in shock...the words actually spoke to me. I had been a bartender, cocktail waitress, musician all in New Orleans, finally joined the Air Force in 1973, spent more than 20 years in, did a lot of other "stuff" but it took this version of the song to Gibbs slap me and make me realize what S & G had actually written.

They also did a cover of a Genesis song called Land of Confusion and it's AMAZING! David Draimon does Phil Collins justice in the vocals of that song.

Love the original and Disturbed’s version equally. It’s like the music and the way they were sung was perfect for what was going on and the way the world was/is during the time of recording.

I first saw Disturbed when they opened for an old all female metal band called Kittie, at Club Soda in Montreal. I would put it around 2001, if memory serves me right. When they came out, they brought the lead singer out in a straight jacket strapped to an inclined stretcher and unbuckled him at the microphone. The presence he has on stage is incredible, and he legit holds his voice the entire way through. I got to meet with them back stage, he is a lot shorter than you would expect but an awesome human being. =) I love seeing people react to this song, it is a journey all unto it's own. If you have not yet, I highly suggest listening to Van Halen's Eruption. There is a live version, make sure to watch that one. It will blow your mind. Cheers!

I've seen them many times in concert and he sounds just like that. He is incredibly talented. From my experience, he is also both kind and gracious. The whole band is excellent imo, top tier.

When I was going through Confirmation, our Pastor played this song by the original band (Simon and Garfunkel) along with a few others, and wanted us to break down the words and meaning. I fell in love with the song. Forty so years later my granddaughter and I are listening to music that I’m playing for her. When it came to this song by the original band, she got so excited and said “I know this song, but someone else did it”. So after the original was over, she pulled up this version and played it for gramma. I felt Disturbed did a great rendition of this song, and it reached so many more people. ❤️

I use this version with my confirmation class! We talked a lot about the visuals as well...God being the writers and us being the musicians acting on His will, and how if we don't act. Very powerful!

Just about everyone who reacts to this song is blown away by David's vocals. I watched the Conan performance as well. Even though he wasn't feeling well, it was still awesome. I prefer this version because I think it shows the raw emotion more than the Conan one. IMO Thanks for the reaction!

This first time I ever heard of Disturbed was at Ozzfest 2000. Disturbed was there and yes, he sang with that much power the entire show. He is just AMAZING. You should do a reaction to Disturbed "Down with a Sickness". But this version of this song...he makes you realize how missed up this world is with all is technology. We don't communicate with other people anymore.

Okay this is a really good cover of this song. I love, and grew up listening to the Simon and Garfunkel version (60's baby). Paul Simon wrote this song and the lyrics are timeless, and hold true to what is happening in the world today.
