The growl in his voice is what makes this version so powerful
@ivonav3751

I find myself intrigued by the idea that he didn't "have to" add the grit, and that his voice had the necessary expertise to communicate the feeling by sheer vocal power. I have to wonder what alternate interpretation that might have brought. But, still....this cover has continued to give me chills and put tears in my eyes ever since the first time I heard it, probably some six years ago. I feel that the grit is a necessary part of building the frustration and anger in the song, and bringing it to that ultimate drop into peace, as the hope of unity emerges. I can't imagine it differently.

I’m a classically trained mezzo and I absolutely love Draiman’s voice. He has such a rich and powerful baritone sound. But even as a classical musician I’m going to agree to disagree about the vocal fry or growl. That IS Draiman’s sound, its signature! Not only that, but he really shows his frustration and anger with the “silence” when he does that. It’s an appropriate artistic choice in my opinion. Sometimes the lack of perfect technique in exchange for raw emotion is so much better! You feel this song. I get chills every time I hear it! Listen to him sing A Reason to Fight.

I don't think there is a better way to "compare" both versions. I loved the original, it's a classic. I grew up listening to disturbed, one of my favorite bands to date. That being said, I was a little nervous that they were doing this because it was so different from their typical music. They've attempted ballads before, and David has even said he was a bit leary to do another one because fans didn't take to it very well. But listening to their version, I got chills, I still do every time I hear it. Probably gonna get hated on for this, but I honestly prefer Disturbed's version, simply because it truly does make you feel. And I love the "gruff". Was it technically necessary, no, the song would still be beautiful without it. But it helped convey the emotion and power behind the words. Not only that, but that holds true to their style, their music.

I'm glad you brought Draiman's vocal training started at that Cantors school. Also of note, once Paul Simon heard this version he told Draiman that he now owned the song for how much feeling it brought to the lyrics. This guy doesn't get the gut feeling Draiman brought to the fore.

The scratch and gruff in his voice at the end was to express rage, not just power. I heard a quote a couple of hours ago about the song that just FLOORED me with how profound it was. "Art Garfunkel with a voice of an Angel sang a song of what people were doing to each other, David Draiman with the voice of an Avenging Angel with sword held high and eyes filled with fire sang a song of what people had done to each other. Both versions with the same words, but both with different meanings"

I reached out to the management & the band DISTURBED. They were having a concert on the venue where our son was killed. I asked them to dedicate this song to our son Michael. God bless this band. They dedicated the Sound of Silence on stage to him. I'm forever grateful to them. 💜🙏💜kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n8ulocR6192snWQ.htmlsi=_OmBZyC70ZMlgJl3

I never thought I would have liked anyone doing a cover because the original always brings tears to my eye, but this... I might be just taken by the moment, but it might be even better, because of that disappointed rage, it's even more devastating, holy shit... The visual too is utterly heartbreaking, I am seriously in awe.

Simon refers to darkness as being his "old friend" that he came to talk with because he was awoken in the middle of the night, of a nightmare that still lingers in his head, that gives his a considerable amount of distress. So bad that the awful visions were still flashing before his eyes as he is awake. Second stanza begins setting the scene in which the dream took place: at night, him walking along the cobblestone road where he stops below the light of a streetlight. The cold chill runs up his back, so he lifts his collar to the "cold and damp." Just then, a blight neon sign lit up, showing that he, in fact, was not alone. But there were "ten thousand maybe more" all gathered in the cold night. The people who are talking, not speaking, are politicians, who are using false words to sway the population to vote for them, never revealing true intentions. The people therefore are hearing are not listening. They are taking these words that are spoken to them in plain value, not examining or putting into depth anything that is said. Because of this, as referred to later, these politicians have formed a government that the people in fact voted for and supported until it began to act as a dictatorship. This seems that Simon is making an inditement to a large government that has taken away the freedoms of its people. A future for America it seemed with the rise of government in world affairs as in entered Vietnam. This "future America" has given Americans everything, and has the power the take it all away, hence the people "bow and pray to the neon god they made." The Silence that is referred to is the silence of the people, afraid to say anything against the government for fear of death or worse. Simon, or whoever has had this dream, tries to bring people to speak out. Saying "Fools, you do not know, Silence like a cancer grows" that as more are afraid to speak, the more control the government takes and the less anyone will stand up to the new government. As all hope is about to be given up, someone steps up and says to the crowd that the future they will hold has been written on the walls of subways and tenement halls. This is because this form of protest can be done anonymously, therefore no one can get in trouble for it. This begins the whispering in the silence of the people, and starts the beginning of a revolt.

Better than the original because makes you feel his pain and angst about society and where we are headed if we dont change. Very powerful performance. Goosebumps every time i hear it. The vocal range, vocal control and technique and how it builds from the start of the song from sadness to rage brings out the original intent of the songwriter. This is how this song should be performed. He makes you feel every word and breaks that sound of silence with his thunderous and amazing vocals.

The singer, David Draiman, uses his vocal fry to elicit an underlying emotion: frustration, rage, grief. As stated, its a signature sound, and he has such fine control of the when, where, and intensity of it! The entire band are contributors to each song, and cover, keeping true to the original intent, but reinterpreting and arranging it to not only fit their style, but to also make it contemporary and fit current social moods. I am a fan of S&G original, but Disturbeds cover has well earned a place as one of my very favorite songs ever.

For those interested, David Draiman was classically trained to be a what is known as a Chazzan/Cantor. He is one of the VERY FEW that does not need a voice modifying mic as this is his authentic vocal octo range. A Chazzan is a someone who leads the synagogue in worship in song and prayer. David (דוד דראמנ) even though was not raised in a particularly observant home, he was sent to a Orthodox yeshiva, and and where he originally thought he was going to have a rabbinic ordination.

That's ridiculous, Paul Simon never said anything of the sort. Simon praised David's performance on Conan via Facebook the following day but he did *not* cry and say "the song was now theirs". You're confusing what Nine Inch Nails lead singer Trent Reznor said about Johnny Cash's version of his song Hurt. When Reznor first watched the music video Cash did for Hurt Reznor was quoted as saying the following: "I pop the video in, and... wow. Tears welling, silence, goose-bumps... Wow. I just lost my girlfriend, because that song isn't mine any more." Paul Simon on the other hand is known to be extremely proprietary with his music. So while he did publicly state that he enjoyed Disturbed's cover of his song he didn't weep over it and he certainly didn't give it away either, metaphorically or otherwise.

The people even have the sheet music and lyrics to it yet all they've done is turn them into these huge, famous 'gods' but not really hearing the true message he's tried so hard to impart.

Thank you Simon & Garfunkel for writing one of the most epic songs of the 20th century...your exquisite harmonies gave it a heavenly and ethereal sound. Then along came David Draiman with a voice like whiskey and chocolate, and gave Sounds of Silence a gravitas like no one else ever will...this version is on steroids and pierces your heart right through middle. Incredibly moving, one of my all time favourites. Swoonworthy...!

David Draiman's voice is one of the most beautiful, powerful voices I have ever heard. I don't generally like metal but I listen to Disturbed's music because of his voice. I love the growl in his voice.

Regarding your criticism of the vocal styling of the last verse: Musically speaking, I agree with you somewhat - mostly because I would love to hear David Draiman hit those notes with a clean voice. I think however that for the message of the song, the compression is warranted - maybe even needed. I have always felt that the original version of the song was a "warning" about the dangers of not communicating. This cover (imo) is more of an admonishment that the past warning wasn't heeded. The singer is somewhat "angry" that we didn't listen to the warning. In that respect, the vocal grit fits the vibe. Just a thought...

I agreed with that criticism the first time I heard it. I thought that the last verse was a little over the top. A perfect last verse would have been a mix between it and the second to last. It needed to be ramped up, but not to that extent, it seemed a little contrived. Still, an amazing performance.

So glad you were so positive about this version Doug. I was on edge wondering what you'd think. Just one wee bit of criticism but I'll forgive you!! This song gives me shivers every time I hear Disturbed. I've listened to it too many times to count. Powerful ❤

I actually love the roughness in his voice at that moment - it amplifies the passion and anguish. I love Simon & Garfunkel's version but this one blows me away every time I hear it. It's just so powerful and raw and immediate.

Wow, the grit in his voice at the end is literally the part that gives everyone except you goosebumps. I'm pretty sure David did it right, and the intense emotion to that part of the song somehow went unnoticed by you.

I thought the same thing. When he sang the part “ the people bowed and prayed” I fall out every single time and is by far the best part and immediately gives me chills. I was dumbfounded and a little angry knowing that is the part he disliked. Mind blown 🤯
