Disturbed - Sound Of Silence Reaction | The Infamous Conan O'Brien Performance!

The #1 most watched vid from Conan O'Brien? Gotta see this!

[ReactToTheWorld]

I'm still trying to recover from this performance. What a revelation!

I had this song played at my father's funeral. The original by Simon and Garfunkel was one of his favorite songs, but when my mother heard the Disturbed version she insisted on that one. Even the priest sang along with it and got teared up. I can't hear it now without thinking of my dad. Great job by David Draiman!

This song was written so one day David would make it stand forever!! No matter how many times you hear it, it makes you cry....

[juneoconnor]

Someone once said the the original by Simon and Garfunkel was a warning and that the Disturbed version is the rage that we didn’t listen.
I’d say that sums it up perfectly

[shannonunruh-hallock]

This is vocal storytelling at its best. They won a Grammy for this very performance.

[annettefordham]

David’s rendition is beyond soul stirring.
I always have tears rolling without even knowing it every time I hear this. I played this for my late husband and I glanced over to see his reaction and he had tears rolling. He said “thank you for this.”

[michaelnel]

I have watched both versions
And about 100 reactions
Everytime it still makes me emotional

[daniellewilliams]

I get chills and cry every time... I search for new reactions to this

[maryannerazzano]

Goosebumps every time I listen to this

[peterjunggren]

Thank you for not interrupting and letting the experience of this song build. Consider yourself initiated. Mark my words. This will NOT be the last time you listen to this song. Great reaction !

[elimiqui]

He has so much confidence in his voice. He knows how to use his voice amazingly. And what a manly voice!!! Love❤

[AprilGirl]

David Draimen is Jewish and was training to be a cantor for his temple - because that voice! Then he veered into rock music, and the rest is history!

[OliveWhisperingEye]

His emotional cadence is what makes this performance so special…. David makes you accept how you should feel while listening.

[michellegreene]

To make this performance even more impressive, David Draiman was very sick during this performance; apparently he was sitting on the stool because there was concern he was going to fall over if he tried to perform while standing. It's also worth noting that Disturbed's original video for this song has almost 800 million views!

[SookeStyleMixedMedia]

It doesn't matter how many times I hear this version, it brings tears to my eyes and shivers down my spine!

[Toadonthehill.]

I am a big fan of the original version of this song and only discovered the Disturbed version a couple of days ago and I can’t stop listening to it. WOW!! It’s magical ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🤩🤩🤩

[pencileater]

It's exactly what you say, it's SO powerful, it brings about feelings that you didn''t expect, it absolutely captures the feeling of the song, it moves most of us...

[LeNaInLoVe]

I have always liked the original, but never payed much attention to lyrics.
Along comes Disturbed and David Draiman, and DEMANDS us to listen and hear the lyrics.
It's so So SO GOOD!

[pattyandersen]

This grabs your soul. He had the flu but performed anyway. Made me cry.

This is brilliant, but now you have to check out the official video. The images are absolutely emotional and incredible. Please react to it! If you think you can't be more stunned by this version of this song, you're wrong. And the growling ... lol. Yeah. That's his deal, but he is also a clasically trained cantor, so his underlying musical training is full of technique. If you like metal ... which I'm assuming you don't ... Down With The Sickness will give you their true musical style (but the lyrics are meaningful and powerful even if that style's not your jam.) But some other of their beautiful songs are Hold Onto Memories and A Reason To Fight. His voice is incredible in any variation, it just depends on what you like. This is an anomaly for them, though, so don't be surprised.
