Call me old, I am...
Disturbed's version, while good, even great, is hardly better than the original. On its own without the video I feel it does stand up very well to the original but the accompanying video is about as meaningless to the lyrics as one might have imagined!
Talk about disconnected and going against the very words the song it's trying to communicate!
Perhaps if the walking guy were in New York on a wintry night, in the crappy part of town, it might have been better, for that is far closer to the imagery of the lyrics. People not caring about others, shouting down those who oppose their opinions, the loneliness one might feel in such an environment.
New York has always been famous as a town where people are known to be uncaring.
As S&G sing in another song, "still a man hears what he wants to hear and disregard the rest"
The Boxer-
it's a theme that runs through much of their lyrics.

Disturbeds version simply made it clear, he sang so that we would listen and try to understand. Simons

Same here too!! Mine (version) comes from tiktok, you should listen to this Angel's voice called Malinda... it's most likely a message from Heaven

Me too. Can't stop watching Disturbed's version on Youtube for last couple of weeks. Suddenly last night had a revelation and realized the amazing prophecy Paul Simon has written in 1964 for us today in 2021! Don't ever allow to be silenced by the "neon gods" of this world in these times!

I can't get enough of the version of Disturbed. Goosebumps everytime.

Well yes and no, I’ve had my dreams, and I’ve seen darkness, we are eternal and I was conscious of being dead, and dead is not being in the physical body, and knowing that you will return but to what? And that’s the mystery of it all, it’s in the creation process of everything that sends us into the future to evolve into another world as the old disappears, and this is where we get the idea of multi verse from, it’s the form of all the what ifs, but yet the subliminal life lived previous keeps our emotions, like strings playing the same song over and over again, until we become comfortably numb to the point of habit, and living totally off the subconscious mind, instead of the conscious mind. For we are all connected to the universal mind, and that is the gods mind.

The meaning of tenement halls is a set or group of separate residences in housing complexes and apartments that are overcrowded, low-income areas. These halls are often referred to as tenement because they were originally built for families who could not afford to live in more luxurious homes. The term hall is used to describe the separate residences within a complex, while tenement refers to the entire complex.
