This version cuts through to the heart and mind. You’re right … it makes you listen to the lyrics. That’s why millions across the world have loved Disturbed’s version.

Not many people realize that David has an unbelievable voice until they hear this. A powerful yet soulful voice that can go from warm baritone to angelic tenor, from clear as a crystal to rasp/distortion/vocal fry and back on a dime, which is incredibly difficult to do and he makes it look so damn easy! He has a timbre in his voice that I've never heard before........just hauntingly beautiful..... An awesome talent. Loved your reaction.

Disturbed's version gave me goosebumps and had me in tears at the same time. David Draiman is such a amazing singer.

If I could sum this masterpiece in a phrase it "SOULPUNCHED"

Thank you for being so honest and allowing your emotions to show, it’s exactly the way the song was supposed to make you feel

David Draiman was classical trained as a Cantor!

A lot of people don't really to the lyrics meaning. David was classically trained and he is a Cantor. Paul Simon gave great praise for how they did his song. The darkness of the video really gets the message across.

"... the words of the prophets are written on subway walls and tenament halls ..." Simon & Garfunkel's rendition was a melancholy lament, full of resignation over the social disillusionment. I hear Disturbed's rendition as a powerfull call to arms, the anthem for the coming revolution!

Enjoyed the reaction, Def do more Disturbed, check The Light and their cover of Sting's If I ever lose my faith in you. 🤘

He is a trained opera singer, he has a range that's out of this world

It's an amazing song and brings me to tears with it's pure beauty.

Paul Simon gave his blessing this after hearing it. Best cover of it .

The tissues I've 🤧 gone through since I discovered David Draiman and Disturbed on April 29, 2024. That day I have to believe my spirit 🙏 guides (out of the blue) first led me to a cover video by Dan Vasc singing "Amazing Grace" 👏 and then to the cover video of Disturbed and David Draiman singing this most POWERFUL, EMOTIONAL 😂rendition of Simon and Garfunkels "The Sound of Silence". I'm 75 and was 15 when they released this classic song of our time during the 60's. It is amazing how relevant it is today, actually I feel it is even more relevant than ever in so many different ways. I've spent days since listening and seeing the many channels and each of their reactions and 😢 almost every time. It's funny that more males have gotten teary-eyed than females, just an observation. Diane Davis

Get ready for a religious experience. Shakes me to my very soul! It's a thing of beauty!

David doesn't just sing to you, he sing INTO and THROUGH you

I bet that’s the first time in Draiman’s life he’s ever had his voice called “country rock.” 😅

if you want an inspirational video, I suggest Disturbed - A Reason to Fight (Official Live Video)

Love seeing this song affect others the way it affects me. Great reaction, thank you for putting yourself out there.

If you're really sad, I listen to his song 'Hold on to Memories'.....sometimes it's good just to let it all out! I sincerely appreciated your reaction. New Subscriber. "You nice, keep going" - Jimin, BTS

I'm a Grandma and I care about everything that you are going through. Every little thing is gonna be alright.✌️💜

For a different emotional ride from Disturbed, try Hold On To Memories with the official video. Hope whatever is going on with you gets better, man.

I’m with Paul Simon ❤️ing Disturbed’s version‼️🤗💝

The original was a warning. This one is the warning was not heeded...

React to DISTURBED'S The Light

Don't waste your time on jealousy Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind The race is long and in the end, it's only with yourself. “Everyone Free to Wear Sunscreen” - Baz Luhrmann

I appreciate your reaction.

Power!! ❤

Wow I really love your reaction and response. Luv from Australia ❤️🎼❤️🎼❤️

I recommend “Disturbed ~ A reason to fight” …. If you haven’t listened to it … it is one of their most reaching songs.

I think the meaning can be interpreted differently by each of us, but to me it's a warning about a lack of communications between people. We don't talk to each other anymore. We talk AT each other. Or our face is stuck in a little box constantly. Although it was written long ago, it is relevant now, even more, in my opinion. Technology is the "Neon God"... We need to pay attention more. To each other, to ourselves. To live outside of the madness that technology has presented to us. I loved this so much! I reacted to it a few months ago for the first time and it SHOOK ME! I've heard the OG version a million times, but NEVER likes this! It made a huge impact on my channel too- almost 250k views since February. I can totally understand why too! Anyway, Congrats on your new KZfaq journey. If I can ever help- I have some tips I could share with you, feel free to reach out! My channel is "The Speak Easy Lounge". Come hang out one Monday night in my Live Stream and request a song or two. CHEERS!

A Reason to Fight is a song that saved my life.

Their live version of Sound of Silence on Conan will knock you out even more. Check it out!

we all are big guys , you know , strong and ready ... and we all know how to fight emotions , you know ... well.. sometimes, it's stronger. And we get pushed upside down by a wave of emotion as a Tsunami . And noone dare disturbed only by the sound of silence ) But you're not alone, you know. We all get that feeling, you just share it very well!

It's always hard to get through some of what life throws at us. Hang in there though, because it will get better. Your reaction was similar to all of the reactions I've seen/heard on this video. I think I've made a career out watching reactions to this cover. Watch Mr. David & Disturbed perform this on the Conan show, if you haven't seen it yet. It's amazing!

Thank you..🦋

❤️

First time watching you. Loved your comments and interpretation.

Great genuine reaction !

You made my day better😊

You helped me .Thanks

Good on ya brother!!

Loved your positive reaction!

I love your position to not put negativity out into the world. Hope everything has worked itself out.

You and your reaction are beautiful.

you need to check out the live performance on Conan

You're the second person I've seen react to this song by saying they never really paid attention to the lyrics before. I find this sadly ironic, because that's kind of what the song was saying, "People hearing without listening". There are too many songs out there that have tried to say important things that people never heard because they don't pay attention to the lyrics. You're missing out if you don't pay attention to both the music and the lyrics.

Given your Korn hat, you obviously love Jonathan Davis. David Draiman ranks right there with Jonathan and Corey Taylor (Add Chester Bennington and you have the best rock singers I have ever heard). Please do check out Disturbed's music. You will fall in love.

REASON TO FIGHT

Sorry that you're going through some emotionally tough times at the time you aired this. I hope you're in a better place now. Take care, Your fan Diane ❤

What a Blessing! God trying to get our attention!! Jesus is Truth ❤️

Bruz your entitled to your opinion 🤘🏼🤘🏼🖤🧡❤️

Comment for the algorithm!

Try watching this live on Conan show awesome mate 👍👍🐈🐈🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

Good show

Watch the live version on Conan O'Brien

Great Channel late night Reactor

I don't remember seeing you in my rotations of tool reactions... If you have not started your Tool journey..you should. Not only will you bond with this music, but also..tool army comes in big numbers to reactions. We love them. Always have the lyrics, no official videos, they are too distracting. Start with....the patient, descending, or the grudge. Every song of theirs is a banger.

People: metal singers can't actually sing David: hold my beer He's actually a classically trained cantor but got kicked out of school after he lit the preachers van on fire 🤷‍♀️

Hello sir. Music keeps me alive, this was a touching reaction. Don't think you've reacted to Jelly Roll? I'd suggest Save Me and Only/Love the Heartless live. New sub! ❤

If you're not touched by this song, you have lost your soul! .

Great reaction Please check out Asaf Avidan and his songs In a chair II and Labyrinth

Where are you hearing Country??

Why you insisted on interrupting this song at all the wrong places is beyond me. Let it play, then react.

I loved your reaction. I cry every single time I see it. The live version on Conan O'Brien is better.

What is the reason you don't listen to the song and do your speaking about it after> You could type your reactions That way we could listen to it with you and see your reaction to it!

Could it get any better then this really

Please no F bombs needed

Your video began with the lyrics at the bottom of the screen and then it disappeared. What happened?

If you haven't heard the original go do a reaction or just listen.

U really cute

Can't hear you dude !!!

it is disturbing to hear music aside of the peace you talk about...

Sorry but I can’t watch these videos when people start& stop something really good,just listen to it& them comment please
