The Sound of Silence is a song by the American folk-rock duo Simon & Garfunkel, written by Paul Simon. The original acoustic version was recorded in March 1964. It became a top-ten hit in several countries worldwide. Since its release, the song has been included in later compilations, starting with the 1972 album Simon & Garfunkel's Greatest Hits. 50 years after its original release, a cover version of The Sound of Silence was recorded by the American heavy metal band "Disturbed" in 2015, and in 2024, the song topped the charts again with the CYRIL remix. Jan van Kraeydonck wrote a powerful arrangement of this pop classic.
