The Sound of Silence | PREVIEW SCREENING (Patreon)

Welcome back, y’all! Let’s get right into it.

If I’d had a $2 bill for every single time someone had requested “The Sound of Silence” by um, Disturbed, I’d have at least $3 by now. That's a lot of money. 

Wait. 

Wasn’t this song originally recorded and released by Simon and Garfunkel? Well, the answer appears to be a solid “maybe”. The Disturbed version of this song has become so entrenched that if you google search “the Sound of Silence”, Simon and Garfunkel’s version comes up halfway down the page - Immediately behind the Pentatonix version. Ouchies. The loss of recognition for their songwriting probably hurts a bit, but I’m sure ol’ Paul and Art are only weeping in between trips to the bank to cash those sweet sweet royalty checks. $2 bills for everyone!

Needless to say, the Disturbed version is incredibly popular, so lured by the temptation of immense notoriety, I made a note for note shot for shot remake of their cover. ENJOY!

Kidding. I set about to do a completely different take. I mean, what’s the point in making something twice, right? So here’s “The Sound of Silence” direct from my brain goop to your ear balls. I hope it makes all the hairs on the top of your feet stand up like it does for me.

Thanks for everything and enjoy the vid!

Perks coming soon!
