[nnickelback]

@TectonicEdge yep

[DisturbedChick95]

I've always loved this song...nothing really more to say other than magnificent...it's terribly painful, but it has a sort of hopeful vibe to it. Amazing...

[MsIrishgal09]

[toam95]

[99juan99]

@jomasterjoe thanks for explainig that didnt know.......

[bozzioisgod44]

This is when David's voice was the best in my opinion.

[Throwerzz]

He looks like that mummy dude from Mummy returns.

[VideoAdventurer]

@Throwerzz LMAO!!! "Imhotep" but he doesnt look like that guy that much, lol.

[SlayerHWA]

Definitely one of my fave Disturbed songs

[VeyrokxTheDisturbed]

@nickyofdadudes yep :O

[Mansaigo]

I've got a fever. And the only prescription... IS FOR THAT DAMN COWBELL TO SHUT THE FUCK UP!

[comfencer]

@Mansaigo NEED MORE COWBELL!!!

[nickyofdadudes]

[Tylerthedrummer12]

[Renicks1]

[XxDrizztx]

@Renicks1

Obvious troll is obvious.

[jvmc08]

[Estillz96]

Wow If David was my dad I'd be the happiest person on the planet!!! Anyway I love Disturbed soooo much!!! I think I could pass off as #1 fan.. Just Saayin!! Anyway this song is really amazing in hwo its calm, are there any other songs like this? I have listened to many Disturbed songs but haven't found any like this one!

[zezwaz]

@Estillz96 Overburdened Is like this.

[TheFamous12121]

the ben draiman version is beautiful i was kinda getting tearie eyed

[goowy1256]

haha mikey on guitar? :O

[Heatblazer12]

damn, this song never gets old for me, it's the song i play everytime i'm sad or depressed

[AwesomeJessie10]

wow.

[ToaMahriLeader]

Mike on guitar. Just unbelievable. :P

[PatsOwn50]

what is mikey even doing? basically just sitting, and nodding his head as far as i can tell. don't get me wrong though, even as a guitarist he's my favorite

[BioRune865]

Erm, he isn't just sitting, he's playing bass...

[progamer11092]

@PatsOwn50 erm....he is playing Bass.....you never heard of an acoustic bass b4???...this song was recorded as an acoustic song, even on the album Believe it was done as an acoustic song

[waterpr9]

what song is this?? by disturbed

[aragorn767]

the Darkness from the album believe

[TakinYoCup]

T_T i have absolutly no idea what this song is about but all i can tell is that david draiman is very sad :(

[aragorn767]

I think it's about taking a break from life and society by letting the darkness cover you (time to yourself ("Deny everything") ).

[Jabrove1]

hmm mikes playing bass, and i see fuzz playing normal guitar? interesting.

[PillarOfChrist]

fuzz isnt in the band any more

[Jabrove1]

lol what else is new? I already know he isnt lol, i was commenting on the VIDEO in which was was still with disturbed back then.

Btw, aren't you curious why he got fired? I thaught about that many times...what could have possibly happened..? he was a good player

[PillarOfChrist]

oh i didnt even see the video but he got fired due to personal issues with David and Dan fired him as an arbitrator or something llike that i know it was personal issues but what is actualy even odder is that John Moyer played live with them and recorderd ten thousand fists and toured to promote it but wasnt actualy considerd part of the band until before indestructible

[Jabrove1]

are you serious? so John recorded and toured but still wasnt listed as a disturbed? how so? he didnt show any discomfort? I coulda swore Fuzz recorded 10k fists...

[PillarOfChrist]

ya in the album booklet it says disturbed is and it only has david mike and dan listed but on the disturbed would like to thank they say "and thanks to John for helping us out on bass"

[DeadSilence2009]

wow this song is really sad I feel the pain in the lyrics of what david is singing beautiful song.. Also david singing in this video sounds the exact same on the album version I LOVE DISTURBED FOREVER!!

[holaholahoy]

@DeadSilence2009 He does indeed sing exactly like on the record. But here the mic of the camere is just too cheap to be able to contain such awesome and beatiful voice.

[NoNameDR]

@holaholahoy lolss you fa..... no wait, I fully agree Ô v Ø

[NoNameDR]

@holaholahoy lolss you fa..... no wait, I fully agree Ô v Ø

[Smartass3995]

Its so sad that davids grandfather past away.. It looks like hes crying ant the end.

[GNRrockergirl]

is that wat ths song is about? Davids grandfather passing away? if so......thats really sad T_T

[Smartass3995]

Well thats not what the song is about, but thats why he created the song.

[GNRrockergirl]

Oh ok...shamefully i never used to be into disturbed but my boyfriend got me into em & now i have every album by disturbed and they are my 2nd favorite band (Linkin Park is my 1st) but disturbed is soon pushing up on my list to being equal with LP!!! lol

[Smartass3995]

I used to listin to LP all the time till these guys made the new album for 2008, to be honest I really like LP but i just think they're not better then Disturbed (thats my opinion). Mabye one day Disturbed could be as great as Metallica. I almost hardly doubt it but it could happen. :P

[tony0320]

officially my favorite person on youtube :D LP is my favorite band also VERY closely fallowed by disturbed

[bozzioisgod44]

Mikey... IS PLAYING GUITAR!?!?!??!! Btw, Dave's voice is amazing. Though he doesn't really seem to sound THAT good anymore from some of the live vids I've seen =/

[NoelMcConnor]

mike plays bass, nothing difficult though.

and dave still sounds good, it depends how his vocal chords are.

[PatsOwn50]

its still good and improving but concert is very rough on his voice

[kjetil888]

lol mike plays guitar :D

awesome and awesome song...

awesome

[NoelMcConnor]

it's bass.

[Soweakandpowerless]

~Beautiful!!!~

[Phatal1011]

needs more cowbell =P

[Disturbed2nite]

David's voice is incomparable and so are his good looks...;)

[xZombieSmiterx]

its not a fucking cowbell!!

[DisturbedChick1272]

This is a kick ass video. I love that song!

[otakudude0851]

I think they need more cowbell

[draiman2000]

It's not a cowbell... It's a metronome... Dumbass lol

[superchilodude]

Hahaha, cowbell?

[otakudude0851]

...i know its a metronome. I guess no one here used to watch SNL in its glory days.

[Blue24U]

I agree this song does need more cowbell LOL. and yes i know its not a cowbell, someone said its a metronome, which helps with getting tempo i believe. if you havent seen Christopher Walkin on SNL with Blue Oyster Cult just youtube "it needs more cowbell".

[chrisdale92]

lmao i got it dude thats awesome!

[hijkul]

I got a fever...

[zackattatck]

David will always be god.he truely has an amazing gift from the gods.

[THE8SHREDDER]

I HATE THAT COWBELL!!

[AlexAmerling19]

great song. Disturbed 4 life

[stefdude2]

in a way i think my voice is kinda like david's but im only 14 when im 18 i really cant determine this. im in a band me and my friends formed and were pretty heavy metal but if we to make a slow song such as disturbed's darkness but my bassist is our song write cause i cant sit down and just think of lyrics.

all in all i think possible i could do a descent vocals cover for disturbed's songs

[suitepee2008]

That's cool man, but if you are singing heavy metal at a young age make sure you don't "scream" out your voice.

That would be bad.

[stefdude2]

if u mean that by like lamb of god screaming then im screwed

[suitepee2008]

Any type of singing which involves pushing your voice to have a grind to it.

...at a young age you can throw your voice out permanantly doing that.

[stefdude2]

lol then screw grindcore n pig squeeling

[DaleReynolds24]

Not a lot of things get me thinking this way, but i was actually THINK about giving a nut in exhange for taking his voice. What a voice david has.

[DISTURBEDONE18]

DAMN... I LOVE HIM!!!!

[jvmc08]

who plays the piano

[barisaxgirl22]

I assume Dan recorded it. Because he's the one that messes with the electronics. =)

[Manoffire959]

wow his voice is realy good they shoul play that on more live shows

[Thengel123]

love his voice :)

[Ryd3r93]

Great Voice

[Ryd3r93]

Replying to my own comment... how fun

[GDISTURBED828]

his voice iss soo beutiful <3

[Sheekaka3]

What a voice...

[FunnyGamesReviews]

@Sheekaka3 ...what a Band.
