Before David Draiman became famous as the singer of the heavy metal band Disturbed, he trained to be a cantor. Now I thought that the original version was good. But the version from Disturbed was the one I listened to and understood the meaning.

It has been said that the original was a "warning" and Disturbed's version is anger that the warning was ignored.

Just stunning! Such pretty piano at the beginning and his voice starts off soft and gentle - and then it builds and builds until the passion pretty much explodes all over the place. Love the guitar too. I must have listened to this a dozen times when I first found it. And now that you’ve found Pentatonix, you may want to check out their cover of this song. It’s stunning too in a whole different way. Loved your reaction. Peace …

I prefer this video over all the other covers. I still get goosebumps every time! I still have the original Simon & Garfunkel vinyl that includes this song, and…yes. I’m that old! I went down the rabbit hole of Disturbed’s incredible videos/live performances. Most the videos are incredible works of art visually as well as musically. Many are not heavy metal, though they are a metal band. Hold on to the Memories and a new duet with Ann Wilson of Heart are must hears.

There is a triangle encapsulating peak _The Sound of Silence._ You know the S&G original with its beautiful harmonies. Now you have heard the second, with Disturbed's intense edge added to it, but lacking the harmonies. The third leg is Pentatonix' cover, which restores the harmonies yet keeps some of that edge. I hope it is on your reaction list.⬅ Anyway, more please -- great reaction.

This version is stellar & of course the original is awesome, but you need to hear it by the A Capela group Pentatonix as well. Their harmonies are absolutely the best! All three versions are fabulous & basically like different songs. Like you, I enjoy the original spin on covers.

The keys are different: Simon and Garfunkel in D minor and Disturbed in F# minor; if you miss the harmonies, try the Disturbed version featuring Myles Kennedy live in Houston. There's an official video of it as Disturbed included it as a bonus track on their Evolution album.

If you want harmonies, try Peter Hollens / Tim Foust or The Hound & The Fox w. Adam Chance - both versions are great. I actually liked this version a lot more than I expected to, but It's not my favorite. I can't fault his voice, but - maybe because it is not a duet - it just doesn't 'do it' for me.
