In Finland we do not have a culture of smalltalk. If you ask someone "how are you", in Finland you are expected to give an honest answer to that. If you don't really care, you just say "hi" and "goodbye", without questions. That is respect when you only ask what you really want to hear. Silence is perfectly fine, if you don't feel like talking. We Finns will get invested, if you talk to us, so respect that dedication.

I can't imagine my life without their music. My mom played them in the home and I loved them immediately as a child. I was a teenager when they did their absolutely amazing reunion concert in Central Park where hundreds of thousands showed up. Garfunkel in Bridge Over Troubled Water might be one of the best vocals ever recorded. And Simon's lyrics are poetry. I miss artistry like this.

You are a BRILLIANT, BEAUTIFUL young woman, and you just proved it. I don't see what anyone sees in the Disturbed version, other than it's a tribute to this one. This has always been a magical song, and the Disturbed version, to me, just can't hold a candle to it. Accept for the words, I feel it's a completely different song and not even in the same class as this one.

🎼🎼🎸🔥🎸🎼🎼 .... hey Maddy. I am very pleased to see you went back to the original artists. Simon & Garfunkel express things in a magical way. You are right back in my karaoke file .. actually I play this one on the keyboards with my bandmates. I say "Wow !" to this version every time I watch it .. which is in the hundreds of times by now.

How am I? Well that is a loaded question lol 😆. I’m at the age where all my athletic injuries and pushing past the pain to compete, with myself or others, has caught up to me. But pushing past obstacles is what I truly know. Having grown up with this song, and Simon and Garfunkel generally, this is the way to really listen to the song for me. Yes there are amazing covers by groups like Disturbed and Pentatonix that are great but for me, this is it. Simon and Garfunkel greatly influenced my song writing. For my high school graduation I sang Bridge Over Troubled Water for my classmates. A song I highly recommend of them is The Boxer. They were true storytellers in all their music. I truly wish you a bright and wonderful day.

Simon & Garfunkel are a beautiful change from my usual rock - it puts you in such a relaxed state. Check out them doing "Scarborough Fair" with Andy Williams on his show in 1968: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MOHOLaV6U4Q.html More:"The Boxer", "The 59th Street Bridge Song", "America", "Homeward Bound"(live from GH album).

@randieandjodistrom854 Год назад

I grew up with this song, and in spite of how skillfully the Disturbed version may be, I simply couldn't recognize it or relate to it. This is a foreboding song, but not despondent. The Disturbed version was just way too dark. The original, and the live version performed here is soooooo much better. It's as if it's a warning, which holds out hope, rather than a conclusive statement of doom. A great reaction by Ms. MaddyReactions, no hate, only kudos and gratitude from me--she nailed it.

@MaddyReactions Год назад

@DrClawizdead 7 месяцев назад

EXACTLY! This song gives a glimmer of hope. You can sense a glimmer in the slightly higher pitch when they end certain lines. It makes me want to listen. With the Disturbed version, all hope is lost. There's nothing to pull me in. It's all doom and gloom and sadness.

@mikemiller3069 Год назад

Paul Simon is underrated as a guitarist. It may be too deep of a track for a reaction but if you like acoustic guitar music, check out his song, "Anji". It is a acoustic guitar solo and it's amazing. It's hard to believe that it is one guitar as there are like three things going on at once. I've been playing guitar for 50 years and have been meaning to try to learn to play it but have been procrastinating on it for about 45 years.😅

I grew up listening to S&G but I’ve come to appreciate Paul’s guitar work much more since I’ve been watching these reaction videos. We were so spoiled back then!

hi i survived my last mental crash ..still climbing back up out of that hole but interaction with the world outside my cave is part of how i have learned to survive,, it helps thanks for tolerating me.. very few live versions of anything are better mostly because of the inability to control the sound as well as in the studio and in my opinion this was done more for nostalgic purposes than musical as we get older we like to see some things survive.. i had to re listen to disturbed's version again to recall my view and luckily found your vid for that .. when i originally heard disturbed version i had great hopes for it and though it's not a bad version i find that the potential for there version was never reached i feel that they should have built the song up more at the end and possibly brought in another vocal possibly to achieve that without getting too far away from the original message since it was a 2 vocal song to begin with ,, thank you

In the late 60s/early 70s, when I was stationed at Reese Air Force Base, this was my go-to song that I'd sing, out loud, while riding my BMW motorcycle back from Lubbock, TX to the base. There was nothing else on that 10 mile stretch of highway except cotton fields and a wide open, starry sky. Disturb's cover was aptly named. I was so disturbed after the first sentence that I couldn't watch it any further. That guy just creeped me out.

Last time I saw this man in my home, two police officers grabbed him to the floor after he had threatened my mum with an axe. I saw him years later, he was frail and old, I wanted to stop my car and beat him, but I stopped myself. Apologies Maddie your reactions are always lovely , love to you both from UK

@dawnmarieallenkent2495 Год назад

This is how I think of the 3 versions I like the most. Simon and Garfunkels original Sound of Silence, of course, is the ultimate rendition... It is a warning about Capitalism and Corporate take over of the government. (How I read the lyrics) Disturbed's version is how "We"... that heeded the reality of their words... feel right now... anger and frustration of the current issues we face as a country... And Pentatonix version is the hope that the younger generation have lived the Previous versions and will actually activate to change the Corrupt system. Over thanking? NOT IMHO... its the reality of the quagmire of Crony Corporate Capitalism.

It’s been a very long time since I’ve listened to this, but it reminds me of how good they really were! Great reaction 🌹

You need to check out their concert in Central Park. My favorite.

It was 1966, I was a 19-year-old kid 1500 miles from home watching the snow fall through a barracks window in Grand Forks, North Dakota, and hearing this song for the first time. The falling snow was the sound of silence for me. Peaceful memory.

Who could possibly prefer the Disturbed version over this?

@cellevangiel5973 8 месяцев назад

This song became famous in Europe by the movie : The graduate. Nobody knows the movie any more; but we all still know the song. So let's name it : a monument.

Great heartfelt reaction. Simon & Garfunkel are one of the most important artists, you couldn’t be more right about their version being the best. Art Garfunkel has the voice of an angel. If you haven’t already done so, you should check out the original studio version of Bridge Over Troubled Water. I think you would love it.

Since you’re loving Pentatonix, I suggest also checking out their cover of this song. I love the original but also love the Ptx version.

At his bar mitzvah in 1954, Garfunkel performed as a cantor, singing over four hours of his repertoire for his family.

"People talking without speaking." There is communication among people without speaking -- not just small talk, but no talk. Mimes passing mimes on a sidewalk crowded.

of course it's the best... they wrote it!!!

I totally agree with you Maddy. Disturbed has power, Simon and Garfunkle has soul and harmony that made you believe in the words. I was brought up in the 60's and personally S&G's original will always be my fav. It's timeless! Just wanted to mention too that hearing great songs "or bad" invoke memories in that moment/era of time so they stimulate the two, so thanks for the reaction and the memories. BTW the whole album "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" is iconic.

I'm not sure they have a word for her cuteness. 😊

You are watching a performance some three decades from when they published this song. The first version was with an acoustic guitar and on the next album the version with electric with lots of extras. In this performance they are older and long after they broke up as a dual. (so voices not as strong)

Wow! So impressive still!

@steveeccles1341 Год назад

Thanks Maddy, beautiful reaction 😊 I haven’t listened to S & G for a while and needed reminding how amazing they are. By the way I’m good 😂😂😂 no, I really am and also happy watching you react. See you next time 😊
