I might be projecting some, but the anger, the frustration, and the desperation all seems to really come to a head at that part to me. This song to me is about how we're talking _at_ each other, not _with_ each other. We're ignoring the people at the other end, and just propping up what we're talking through. We're always talking about and to the constructs that seperate us, like being a Democrat or Republican or Asian or Black or German or Mexican etc. instead of talking about and to people. Because under all the BS that's what we all are, people. I very much have been feeling those feelings for most of my life, so again this might just be me projecting that ball of emotion on that line.

What I had actually read was that Simon and Garfunkel had nothing to do with the re-made version of the song. Paul Simon was in England by himself after their first album, Wednesday Morning, 3AM didn’t do well. The record company hired musicians to put bass, drums and electric guitar on the acoustic track from the original acoustic version of the song and it was this version that became a hit. Neither Simon or Garfunkel were aware of it until it was released.

The original song is about the dying of music, and the creation of electric sound, which has flooded the music industry for decades.

I agree it does resonate with society's move to a technological independent culture over the past habitus of community shared ownership.

The lead singer is David Draiman, he was originally trained as a cantor when he was younger. The vocal distortion he sings with is his trademark, easily recognizable from any song they sing. When this came out, Paul Simon heard it, and said that the song belongs to Disturbed now, and posted it onto his Twitter page. It's the only time he's ever done that for any artist. He said his version was a warning, and sad, and this one is angry that everyone ignored his warning.

He's got a beautiful voice. Listen to Down with the Sickness then listen to sound of silence you'll appreciate his voice even more. Chester Bennington had a beautiful voice. He could scream in some songs but then sing so beautifully

I know this song since a very long time. I was a kid or maybe teenager and I liked it. This cover version enterted the internet like a bush fire... When I heard it the first time I was crying like a baby... It is so emotional and it is like a hurricane. It started soft and mellow and it is like climbing on a high mountain with so much power... On the top it is like a explosion and the way back it is getting mellow again. This is a masterpiece of music and for my opinion the best cover I ever heard and I am 60 years old... By the way - you have such a beautiful and symphatic smile - my favourite one directly behind Bob Marley 🌹🌹🌹

This live version was amazing but I don't think it has the intensity or impact of the studio version which had a huge effect on me.

One of the most amazing covers of all time. Disturbs’ rendition is haunting and poignant, David’ voice so clear and powerful, and the orchestration is dark and brooding.

Thank you for presenting this version. I grew up in the 60’s so the S&G version is the gold standard for any other version that I hear. Disturbed’s version has made it their own with an intensity that is appealing and doesn’t allow direct comparison with the original. Well done!

An interesting interpretation, but I feel the Simon and Garfunkel original is the best. I get goosebumps when I hear them.

Yeah sure, but Disturbed featuring Myles Kennedy will ruin the Simon and Garfunkel original forever. Look it up. Harri, check it out.

@@982spyder5 I can’t see that being a possibility, being that Simon and Garfunkel have been internationally famous for decades. I never heard of this other guy until someone told me there was a cover of their song. I asked around and nobody has ever heard of him? Is that his only song, he looks a bit old to be just starting his career.

@@cheryla7480 Disturbed is a metal/hard rock band, they started in Chicago in the mid 90's and Myles Kennedy is from Alter Bridge, also mostly hard rock. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fplyrJd1v9-4foE.html Give it a listen if you have a moment.

This is a very nice version but I'd have to say I love Simon and Garfunkel's version better. I guess it was a much more relaxing feeling while listening to the original. Enjoyed your reactions. Thanks Harri. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

Paul Simon actually said he thinks they (Disturbed) owned the song so much it is now theirs; biggest complement ever. :) ( and yes I adore the original )

That's the thing though, it's meant to be a warning and not a nice, relaxing song. That's where this version eclipses the original.

Anger at your silence. Delivers the song and an important message in an entirely new way. Disturbed now owns this song.

The original was a call to action. David's is in lament of not heeding that call.
