This album is 22 years old today actually so you timed it perfectly
Not random*
Spiral out!
Without cheese life would have no meaning
20 years later this song is STILL growing on me.
For those possibly confused about the "Fibonacci Sequence" in the beginning, basically the entire song is about spirals so they used the Sequence to make the song, quite literally.
The clearest example I can give is the beginning lyrics, he goes (count syllables between pauses)
[1] Black
[1] And
[2] White are
[3] All I see
[5] In my Infacy
[8] Red and Yellow then came to be
[5] Reaching out to me
[3] Let's me see
The lyrics also start at the golden ratio, that being at 1:618
Yep, whenever giving someone lyrics to this song it's best to give it in syllables like this. I had probably heard the song a few times without ever catching on because I wasn't paying that close of attention.
Well, this is definitely one of the greatest songs ever written. Between the time changes 9/8/7 and the integration of the Fibonacci sequence and the fact you can’t tell unless your told. Chefs kiss 💋
@Gerald H And the syllables go from 1-13 in the sequence. All the math & It all fits. He comes in at 1:37 (Min/sec) = 1.618 the Golden Ratio.
this is TOOL's "time to evolve" by bill hicks
and happens to correlate fairly well with "tribute" by tenacious d
"look into my eyes and it's easy to see:
1 and 1 make 2, 2 and 1 make 3, it was destiny (it was fibonnaci)
bonus lyric correlation b/w tool & tenacious d:
"once every hundred thousand years or so
when the sun (triad) doth shine
and the moon (reflection) doth glow
and the grass (disposition) grow ooooooooo"
^describes "light travel", sun>moon>earth = total eclipse (of heart?)
(this is symbolic of both "holy trinity" & "alchemical wedding")
see: brain bi LATERALIZ ation ..."i know the pieces fit" -_-
spea. king. of! mjk bio: "a perfect union of contrary things"
guitar riff represents fibonnaci FIB growth evolution, plant life (0 1 1 2 3 5 8)
droning bass pulse represents PHI growth evolution, human life (...golden...)
the fade-in PHI pulse (a constant pattern, of a singular value: 1.6180339...)
does so bc humans evolved not just with but bc of plants, and not just that
but bc we were able to genetically modify plant life evolution to our needs...
and. not. just. that! but! that we are capable of the very same done unto us.

You know how in many parts of our troubled world they are yelling 'revolution! revolution!' In Tennessee they are yelling 'evolution...we want our thumbs!' The thing is they see people with thumbs on T.V. all day, boy that's got to drive them hog-wild huh? [mimics monkey] Trailers are shaking. They're nice people they're just, what would you call 'em - rural? Backwoods, country? They're real nice, after a show one of these guys came up to me and said 'hey, you're great, you cracked me up, I was about to spit!' ...Sorry? He said 'no I loved it, I'd like you to meet my wife and sister.' And there was one girl standing there...not a thumb between 'em. Goddamnit now what are the odds of that? Okay the girl had a little nub growin' in, but girls evolve quicker than guys.
Folks, it's time to evolve. That's why we're troubled. You know why our institutions are failing us, the church, the state, everything's failing? It's because, um - they're no longer relevant. We're supposed to keep evolving. Evolution did not end with us growing opposable thumbs. You do know that, right? There's another 90 percent of our brains that we have to illuminate.
________________________________
the "overthinking, overanalyzing" mistake people make to this day, is pointing at syllables, counting them, and then making a big deal about fibonnaci instead of realizing it's a mere scaffolding definitional approximation of the real shit, hiding in plain sight, for those with eyes to see (not to sound ableist, it's just one of those occult/hidden idioms) ..."you look so precious now" (unity christ golden consciousness, represented by phi, the GOLDEN ratio/rectangle/number/SECTION/CUT/"rule"). "do unto others what has been done to me" - prison sex. this is why mjk associates himself with "virgin records", "alchemy recordings", & "diSECTIONal"* (the symbolism is quite intentional).
THE MAP IS NOT THE TERRITORY ! ! !
EGO'S BEEN lalallalalallalaaLYING
...THIS WHOLE TIME!!! (^vicarious ref)
*a favorite tool poster of mine shows a bunch of fish diving for heptagram star (symbolizing the holy virgin mother isis/mary, "learn to swim" ocean of chaos of mind, divine feminine within us all). the fish are about to be CUT by GOLDEN scissors, right in the "fish bladder" ("vesica piscis"
My favorite Tool song is “Eulogy.” It’s my anthem to my estranged father.
But, remember, the best song is the one you like the most, and no one else’s opinion should change that!
Very true.
“The Patient” is a masterpiece.
A real gem in a sea of masterpieces!
Tool has done so much to help me expand my thinking at a critical age. Right when I needed it in high school.
Tool is my all-time favorite band. They are a rabbit hole after rabbit hole band. Everytime you listen to one of their songs you will hear something new hidden within it.
people want to lose themselves, Tool is one of those transcendental bands that you can do it.
This is, without doubt. the greatest song they have ever written.
Fight me.
I can understand other choices but yes, 100000% agree. This isn't only the best song they've created, I think it's one of the greatest pieces of music ever too
It is my favorite song by them. Maybe of all time.
Great reaction to arguably the best song ever written. Maynards poem, his vocals, Adam's inspiring guitar, Justin's bass and omg Danny's drumming. This is a rare example of everyone being a genius.
One of my favourite Tool songs is Rosetta Stoned, with the Lost Keys (Blame Hoffmann) intro.
That song is just an experience.
Another great one to check out is the classic, Third Eye.
Crazy enough I always find myself moving my head in a circular motion when I listen to this song. 😂
Spiral out! 🌀
@@GimmeJimmy23 Keep Going!
Makes sense, I found myself doing circular motions quite a bit at the show I finally got to go to in March, '22. First live Tool experience and I definitely recommend it to everyone if there's a chance. And get VIP's if you can go - the music resonates thru you in the first few rows. Talk about reaching for the random? Be one with the random.
you know whyyyyy :P
My favorite Tool song is Invincible because I’m getting old. You could say I’m like a “warrior struggling to remain consequential”.
Old, not obsolete.
Just perfection
This might be my most favorite song of all time.
Seeing Tool Sunday in Daytona. Can't hardly stand the anticipation.
This is my fav tool song but the grudge is also amazing and the patient is a more chill under rated song of theirs as well. Love the reactions!
Lateralus is my favorite tool song of all time. Aenema is a phenomenal album, but Lateralus is just perfection.
Favorite tool track: Right in 2
The greatest concert I have ever witnessed. Now with epilepsy I'll never get to again with the light show. Maynard stayed on a platform the entire time. Still amazing
Other bands are music, the tool is love.
I love how I can read the emotion in your eyes.
Spiral out, keep going lilly Jane. Can't wait for you to do Descending, thats my favorite tool song . Much love to you!
Great reaction. Spiral out, keep going 🤘🏼👁🌀🌀🌀 Fav TOOL songs are "Descending" and "Pushit". Both are goosebump inducing journeys.
Pushit live. With the world class mathematician Aloke Duta playing Indian Tabla.
This song.. Lateralus is my favorite Tool song.
"Ride the spiral to the end, you may just go where no one's been" - sums up this young lady's reaction perfectly
'the Grudge' is a great Tool song, they have many though
Awesome reaction as always! This song is one of those that significantly contributed to my existential awakening. Your interpretation was excellent as well. My favorite Tool songs, Pneuma and Lateralus. Pushit, The Grudge, Descending, Jimmy, and Right in Two are phenomenal as well. Thank you for the video! I always enjoy them!
Mine changes day to day. Today it’s Jambi.
Was a 🔧 fan in the early 90s when undertow was released drifted away for a few years caught back up and they have never made a bad song just some that resonate with me more than others
I graduated '96 and became obsessed with Undertow then lost track of tool as well, bumped into this band randomly thru life and play catch up and appreciate them more every time. 🐖🍴🍴lol
They are my favorite band and every song is my favorite when I hear it. Haha. Actually, this is my most motivational song for what I need to do better which is to let me intuition lead the way. If my heart is in a good place, my intuition will not let me down.
You need to do what you've been doing with Floyd's Dark Side album Lilly. Do the whole album, for me this is Tool's equivalent of Dark Side of the Moon and should be listened to in full. The next tracks after this one are the Holy Trinity of "Disposition", "Reflection" and "Triad". It's difficult to separate these tracks as they flow beautifully in to one another and link up so well. Hope you can do this one day. Keep up with the Floyd stuff too. Floyd and Tool are two of the greatest bands of all time for me.
I'm 44 and I skipped class the day this album was released so I could be the first in line to get it. Kudos on a great reaction. You did this song a great justice with the respect you showed it.
Haven't heard this song in years ❤❤ thax miss Lilly 😊😊
This is my favorite Tool song. Has a bit of everything.
Wear the grudge like a crown of negativity
That's my favourite Tool song, The Grudge. It is an album opener that literally left me and my friends jawdropped and speechless when we first heard it :)
The sequence follows the rule that each number is equal to the sum of the preceding two numbers. The Fibonacci sequence begins with the following 14 integers: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233 ... Each number, starting with the third, adheres to the prescribed formula. So 1 + 0 = 1 , 1+1=2 , 1+2=3 and so on. Maynard sings using the sequence up to the number 13. The same with the music. If you listen to the drums closely you will pick up the pattern. Not only the syllables divisione follow the Fibonacci sequence, but also the duration of the song, the time in seconds when the various parts of songs begin ( when the singing starts for example), the time signature and the lyrics itself. Everything in this song is based on Fibonacci or the golden ratio. It's an amazing display of compositional skill.
Your new favorite band. Welcome to the TOOL ARMY. Keep your weapon out and belly in. Pray for rain and tidal waves, and definitely learn to swim.
Great album!! Great reaction!!
Gotta seem live!! You'll figure out the dance when your there!! Completely memorizing as is all their music .
Ive been at TooL fan since there demo came out. Over 30 years later they are still my favorite band. Lately ive really bern getting into Pneuma. There is no bad TooL album
Had the pleasure of seeing this band live here in LA for their latest album and they were phenomenal in every sense of the word.
Just saw them in Columbus last night. Otherworldly.
love the reaction!!!my personal top three tool songs are (lateralus)(right in two) and( Jambi)!!!
this track and parabol/parabola as well as the patient are some of my oldest tool faves. Lateralus and Parabol/Parabola hold strong regardless of the day but songs after that can vary depending on the day and my mood. there is no bad track by the band and they are one of the best live shows I have ever seen, the only other band live that I enjoyed just as much was NIN.
spiral out and enjoy the ride :)
Right in two is a must!
Great reaction as always, you get it, thank you. My fav Tool is Pushit, it hits me hard and still gives me goose bumps every time I hear it.
Still on my work playlist when I really need to focus and get things done! Also, that opening line: "Black then white are, all I see, in my infancy, Red and yellow then came to be. Reaching out to me, lets me see." I still randomly post that on Facebook just to F with people's heads.
The last concert I attended was about 5 years ago, it was TOOL, great show/ performance, but EXPENSIVE AF!!!
Fun fact. Lateralus was released exactly 22 years ago today
talk about perfect timing because I legit had no clue about the album anniversary.
@Lilly Jane Reacts in my humble opinion, MJK has some really deep lyrics in Vicarious, Jimmy, and certainly Wings for Marie, which many listen to right before they listen to 10,000 days. Wings and 10,000 days are tribites to MJK's mom. Jimmy is about him dealing with his mom's stroke when he was eleven.
Favorite TOOL song is whatever I most recently listened to. Subbed for TOOL 🔧 🌀
Lily Jane you are brilliant
the music, the symphony, you'll feel it move across your skin.... now go listen to 10,000 days
4:10. That was a very well thought out and accurate synopsis! Excellent!👏
I have a new fave Tool song every week! But Parabol/Parabola is so good I want it played at my funeral service.👻
‘Aenima’ is my favorite - maybe mostly because that’s the one that they played on the radio the most back in the day and turned me onto tool in the first place.
Yep, that was a treat to listen to before on demand type music
My favorite Tool song Lateralus and Descending honorable mentions are the grudge, Pushit both versions, Parabola and Parabala, 46&2, schism, eulogy, reflection, ticks and leeches
Nice TAKE! ✌️
@6:30 ish, cool you were doing the same head banging motion as Justin as he was playing his calm, slightly solo riff transition. Same way he'd do it!
'Whatever will bewilder me' is such a great lyric
I think one of my favorite parts about this song is that if you don't try to listen to where each measure starts, you can find an underbeat for the song and bop your head to the song. I think the best way to find this is near the end of the song, during the "with my feet up off the ground" part. If you just fall apart to the rhythm and tap your foot in a 4/4 pattern, you'll find it.
My favorite Tool song = yes
Great song Lilly
Lateralus is a great album 💯
Underrated comment🤟🤟
Still remember vividly as a teen sitting in my friends room listening to it days after release. We were all blown away how awesome it was
11:40. You are so smart!😆🌿🌼
This is epic..just listen and spiralout 😎
Best song ever.
8:00. Excellent, yet again! Wow!🌸🌿🌺
Good set of headphones is a must for this.
I think you got the meaning Lily Jane! Maynard is a tremendous writer IMO. "Push the envelope and watch it bend". Thx for reacting!
Rosetta Stoned is one of my favorite Tool songs. It's a LOT first listen but it gets better every time you listen to it.
True. It took me a while. Used to skip it. Then one day for some reasons years later I listen to it again. Now I think it's up there with their best work.
Lilly, you are one of the best reactors when it comes down to breaking down the meaning behind a song. There are many interpretations of this song, but I think it was written to examine life in general.
The song, as well as the entire album’s, structure was carefully planned; this specific song is based on the Fibonacci sequence.
So as a sort of double-standard, this song wants you to embrace the random, but “embracing” could be interpreted as such for studying its anomalies, which in turn could be found as over analysis.
It is a fine line between analyzing, and over-analyzing. It requires nuance, and the strength to resist unfounded conclusions or bias. I think you're absolutely right about the song. I think it's saying, "Explore, and discover, but be careful to take the world as it truly is, rather than how we'd like it to be".
Fibonacci sequence....way over my head, lol. Brilliant.
“Spiral Out Keep Going” 🌀🌀🌀🌀
One of the greatest song ever written 👌
One spark one light ..we all are .
TOOL - Forty Six & 2 is a MUST!!!
Wow, time flys by for sure. Ni matter what day time it may be, tool will forever be semented snd salitified as a goat of tve metal stuff
Tools sound is cosmically transcendent
SPIRAL OUT BABE!!😉
Ohhhh you gotta do Right in Two and Jambi!
46&2 is a masterpiece
You have my attention :)
Spiral out, keep going!!!!!!
Girl got spoked like I did. Lmao love it
🤘🏻🌀
No danceable rhythm is key to the experience of randomness. The best way to enjoy this is in the dark, surround sound and relaxed. Chemical alterations as you see fit.
Pushit is my ABSOLUTE favorite Tool song, by far.
We all know exactly what we were doing when we first heard Tool. Music should be thought provoking, Tool certainly have the ability to make an individual seek further truth and enlightenment.
Pnuma us my favorite Tool song. I love getting lost in that song.
Black and white are the base colors in alchemy, followed by red and yellow. This is what that section is referencing.
This is I guess what it's refering to:
While most of Maynard's lyrics including this one are syncretic and heavily layered, one of the best guesses people have come up for this particular lyric line is that it's alluding to the alchemical process, the transmutation of lead into gold (also found in The Grudge, "transmutate these leaden grudges into gold"). The whole song, as mentioned by Danny, has a very "evolutionary" vibe to it, if I remember correctly he said it feels to him as if it promotes human evolution/transmutation/growth.
The color stages of alchemical transmutation:
Black - Nigredo
White - Albedo
Red - Rubedo
Yellow - Citrinitas
It also talks about skin colors as well, I guess in the sense of "its a war against black and white" then red and yellow (native american/asian) started becoming part of the picture or something like that. That's another interpretation I've seen over the years.
That is also part of the Fibonacci cycle in the syllables.
It also speaks about evolution of colors babies develop in their upbringings, black and white are the first colors, followed by red and yellow, then blue finally.
Its kind of layered a little bit. lmfao
Tool in concert isan LSD trip without taking any, Its always a UFO/Alien theme.
🖤🤘🏾
My favorite Tool song is usually the last one I listened to. How do you even begin to pick a favorite? Each album reminds me of a different time in my life.
the fibonacci sequence
Great reaction, have to admit I was waiting for your reaction to that first crash of music at the start 😅 You're right about the bit about seeing things in black and white, but the bit about red and yellow is something a lot of people don't get... Red and yellow represent emotions - anger and fear. "Seeing red" is coming used to describe being angry, while being "yellow bellied" is used to describe someone who is cowardly. Seeing in black and white, acting in anger and fear, are things that come naturally to every one of us, and this song is about moving through these negative behaviours, pushing the envelope of our own minds, and coming out the other side a better person. This is what, in essence, spiralling out is all about.
Spiral out.
Ive got this album
Thanks for doing a Tool song ! Please do Jambi by Tool 😀
Watching this on 🍄🤩
I love Tool on shrooms 😂
4:10 you just perfectly described the "don't judge book by cover" metaphoric art design of tool's 2006 release "10,000 days". 2d monochromatic alex grey "net of being", zoomed in on surface of "things" ...vs opened album, zoomed out, centered, considered depth, stereoscopic 3d lens included! FULL SPECTRUM alex grey "net of being" interior... this is an alchemical truth. "everything occurs in presence of its opposite" ...this is called the "coincidentia oppositorum", coincidence (or union) of opposites. this is precisely why the album and song is entitled "lateralus", referring to brain biLATERALIZation ...this is precisely why maynard's autobiography is entitled: "a perfect union of contrary things" ...parabola, gap, hole, grand canyon, V is for..., "I come before U", "shit adds up at the bottom"', "slide a mile six inches at a time", "down this vagina mine", "fall to gravity & the unknown", find zero point (where -1 & +1 are 1 ...11/synchronicity ..."apparently nothing at all"). pushit: "take care not to make me(egoless) enter, 'cause if i do we BOTH (EGO) may disappear" -_- black/white polarization is censorship. we, as a collective consciousness, have forgotten the collective ...the voice of the voiceless, screaming out to be heard. "rediscover" the divine feminine we've subconsciously held back ..."alice in chains". "question authority".
Hard to pick a favorite but would like your reaction to Right in two by Tool.With tool your exactly right you have to just go with the flow
You would LOVE "Third Eye" by Tool
