I somehow missed Disturbed's version of The Sound of Silence.
That rendition on Conan must rank among the pantheons of both covers and live performances.

I don't particularly care for Disturbed's vocalist's voice, so I couldn't get into it. Same reason I don't care for Sabaton much.

Fair enough, but personal preferences aside (I don't particularly care for either band) I'd said Sabaton's singer is decent at best in a live setting while this was near-perfect. Even if there was a dab of autotune on one of the high notes.

Oh, I agree that Draiman is much better, technically, than Sabaton's frontman.

There's just a few voices that I don't enjoy listening to, and his is unfortunately one of them.

Nice.

Did I ever mention when I was in London a year ago, I went to the War of the Worlds immersive show. It was really impressive. It's coming round again next year for a second run.

Thanks Josep for the interesting link, worth checking out if I get to London post-lockdown!

Excellent album

Spotify has their yearly summary bit out and my top categories were:

Pop
Dance Pop
Post-teen Pop
R&B
Pop Rap

:blush:

It is that time a year again where Spotify reveals your top genres and top artists.

I guess this represents an evolution in my tastes? :unsure:

Pop
Dance Pop
Rock
Rap
Indie Pop

In their 2020 Wrapped feature. This was the first year where they let me see it in the app, previously always had to login on a webpage to see.
