*I'm deaf in my right ear which is why I'm not wearing headphones. I know, it's a bummer not to get the panning sounds. It's also been a bummer to only have one ear my whole life for lots of other reasons, like, playing telephone growing up, I was terrible at it. But, I'll be ok, and I'm getting both channels in the earbud, thanks for your concern :)

It's definitely about the government. Maynard was pretty vocal about being against the Iraq war when this came out
Now you're going to have to skip ahead to "counting bodies like sheep" off the next album emotive, cause its awesome and hair raising.
adrian foote I’ve honestly never been a fan of that one, it’s kinda just a drawn out, less badass remix of the original; wish they still played this one live :/
And it has one of the best video interpretations as well.

@@connorsmith377 oh yeah I prefer pet as well as its not so harsh on your ear holes but counting bodies like sheep would make a good reaction.
@@andrewmorgan6168 yeah would have to watch the video for the reaction
You should do "County bodies like sheep" official video....its great version of this song!🤣🐑
I'm always surprised that reactors never seem to pick up on the overt political commentary in this song. Of course, the album deals with addictions, recovery, oppression or suppression and so on. So I get why people read this song as a personal dynamic. But the idea of the government placating the populous with half-truths during conflicts and terrorism always felt a more dominant theme to me.
Perhaps it's because I was familiar with the routine by Maynard's late friend Bill Hicks (he's the guy talking on Tool's 'Third Eye')

"Swaying to the rhythm of the new world order
Count the bodies like sheep
to the rhythm of the war drum
The boogeymen are coming
, the boogeymen are coming!"
Agree with this interpretation.. APC was starting to get fairly political in these days. I've always taken this as political commentary against manufactured wars.
That was my reasoning to think it was probably control in a romantic relationship or about drugs. It would fit in more w/ the album if it's a concept and evolution, de-evolution, or just cycle in some area of life. Most of these songs wouldn't be about gov't, influences behind them, or war; rather either a personal relationship or drugs. A political interpretation would be more literal in this case, but then I'm more struggling w/ how it fits in as a concept album. Maybe about life in general and all the types of addictions/bad relationships. Or the indoctrination into war/supporting gov't action could be used as a metaphor. We knew Maynard wrote about war plenty w/ tool, i.e.: Right in Two.
yep yep
I also had that interpretation. This came out during the Bush years, and the Iraq/Afghanistan War was still relevant to all of us. I know the album as a whole is about addiction and the twelve step program, but this always felt like an outlier. A Perfect Circle became more political for their covers album and their new album, so this still makes sense to me. Though I am entertained by the cult leader analogy.
I guess I am kinda off topic but do anyone know of a good site to watch newly released movies online ?
When you listen to the album straight through...and if you know much about addiction...you'll see the connection where the "drug" or whatever the addiction may be is making the user the "pet"...this is that addiction "talking" to the user.
So you got it at the end, there.
I think it could also be the Government he is talking about. " Crimes" runs into this one then "Lullaby" is an outro to this song. not even sure why it is a separate track. Thank you for the videos, You should do Pearl Jam "Black Live MTV Unplugged 1992, Please.
That Black performance is in my opinion one of the most powerful and emotional live performances I have ever seen. It surpassed the original version easily. I wish more artists would open themselves up and completely let go like this performance but thats a rarity nowadays. Highly recommend a reaction 😁
I always interpreted the lyrics as being directed toward the America immediately post-9/11, as during the recording and prior to the release of this album the United States was actively invading Afghanistan & Iraq.
I felt that their cover of “Imagine” and the themes of eMotive lend more evidence toward that interpretation, but, as is Maynard James Keenan’s style, there is another layer that fits well with the psychology of addicts and addiction.
I do like your interpretation, more colorful for sure. Also, reminds me of TOOL’s “Eulogy,” as my best friend in high school was a big true crime fan, (we’d walk to the mall from our school and hang out in Books-A-Million, Walden Books, and FYE for hours,) and he came up with the idea the song was about Jim Jones.
That pet cemetery reference in the thumbnail.. just perfect 😋🧟♂️🐈
Love this album. The more you listen, the more it grows on you 😍.
I always thought this song was about an authoritative figure (like the government) "taking care" of your needs so you don't peak behind the curtain, so to speak. But I could be wrong lol
This was the song that got me hooked on A Perfect Circle, was waiting for you to get to this one!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
I got to see the original lineup of A Perfect Circle and it was nuts. They all had aspects of glow in the dark paint on them so when the blacklights came on they would glow. It was really awesome, and in a smaller venue so I got right close.
Yeah, he’s talking about the government. Controlling everyone with their crap.
There you go.. got me thinking outside the box again. 😁
I love that guitar solo at the end of the song. It kind of reminds me of that one scene in PULP FICTION!
YES YOU FINALLY DID THIS ONE! i’ve been asking for it for- this is tied with “Gravity” and “The Outsider” for me as far as A Perfect Circle goes. i see it as a song about governmental corruption and trying to control what the citizens see but others have their interpretations of it. you have to listen to “Gravity” and “The Outsider” ❤️❤️❤️
Especially corruption when it comes to war, as seen in the “counting bodies like sheep to the rhythm of the war drums”
Yes
You're spot on talking about drugs and bad habits making you the pet to your cravings. It's not a coincidence that the album is named Thirteenth Step (12 step program) and has themes around addiction across a bunch of the songs.
Dude I can't wait for you to react to weak and powerless and the outsider
Great song👌 can’t wait for you to hear Weak and Powerless
Always imagined it as a lullaby song to A Jewish child in Germany. Although I totally love your interpretation of it being just a pet to whatever we’re addicted to! Loved this song forever
Band: Sigur Ros, Song: Glosoli
This track goes in so many different directions. Very interesting choices. That aggressive main riff.. the silently aggressive verses and the complete melody change up before going right back to the hard riff again. Shows they still have the edge of the first album. Another short one but it only gets more interesting from here. Look forward to more ☺
I loved your analysis here! Really thoughtful and insightful for an instant reaction.
Such a soothing jam
First one of five outstanding (imo) tracks you've reacted to on this album. So a lot of juice left. I think you nailed the interpretation from either the perspective of a relationship w/ a partner or a drug. About control either way. Interesting topic and rhythm was melodic, beautiful, and hard. Fun song which you seemed to genuinely enjoy.
We all are the pets and the ones in power is what the song is about.
Little side fact: I went to high school with the guy that played the young version of John Ritter in the original It movie.
Love it. I always thought this would be a perfect soundtrack to a John Wick movie...Baba Yaga.
Your brain probably related this song to its remix, "counting bodies like sheep to the rhythm of the war drums" from their album emotive, which was on the same album as their song "passive" which your brain then related to Keanu's club entry scene in 'Constantine'. He was named john in both as well. 😁
@@joshuapayne8811.. indeed. As well as the phrase, "the boogie man coming. " I am not a fan if all APC songs .. but this is one of my favs. ☆
And I thought Constatine was a delightful film as well. ☆
Hmm....should be boogey...
10:47 Yes, I have some other recommendations:
Klone - Immersion
Emptyself - Just Go On
Cire - Brand X Misery
Sopor Aeternus - Beautiful Thorn
Lissie - Hero
Lolly Jane Blue - White Swan
Delerium - Innocente
It's about politicians... what's the one thing all politicians will tell us? Dont worry, we got this. No matter what, you need us.
The song to me was about addiction to drugs/alcohol and how it gives you the delusion that’s all you need. No matter what else is happening in your life. It keeps you complacent and gives you the delusion of happiness. The addiction to me is what is saying all those lyrics to justify your actions/problems and it’s going to make everything better no matter what.
Love the reviews. You should check out The Stone by Billy Howerdell's solo act Ashes Divide
Oliver tree
Hurt
(Melanie Martinezs boyfriend)
His music is kinda like pop but also maybe rock? and like indie feels? Idk but it's cool
Yeah this was definitely around the war, there was a video that came with the album but probably hard to find now.
Ive always interpreted these lyrics as a “sheltered“ child. Whose guardian, may or may not realize the inevitable trauma being constructing... Its Difficult to argue... gullible/pretentious/“sheltered children,” learn the hard way... real life... can fuck your world UP! (Apologies for the profanity use. I would normally choose to express myself differently... However, Its impact felt necessary)
Lullaby finishes this song off so perfectly.
I’m picturing a young prince in a battlement tower, while an evil king whispers into his ear whilst an epic lord of the rings battle is going on beyond his window on a vast plain.....idk always have
one of their best!!
Each album has a theme which they stick to through out. Mer Dr Noms is all about relationships and sex. Thirteenth Step is ALL ABOUT DRUGS. Emotive is all about the sociopolitical climate of the modern world.
It's sung from the perspective of the drug talking to the addict. The whole album is around different aspects of addiction and recovery
This is the addiction talking to the addict. Or the drug itself. The boogeyman is withdrawals. It’s telling him to pay no mind to the people that want you to get sober. I’m the only that can protect you.
The best APC song imho.
We're "Pets" to the Government
FInally into the MEAT of the album
COUNTING BODIES LIKE SHEEP!!!
Jersh, please do "The Humbling River" by Pucifer
You should react to The Tea Party. An alt-rock band from Canada
I just want to mention Covid-19. And how much it resembles PULP FICTION!
Pretty much spot in with your lyrics analysis but expand it beyond an individual situation, as in a government ruling it’s people
Eths - Crucifere
You should react to THE OUTSIDER on Jay leno...great performance....
I could be wrong, but I always thought this song was about Maynard's son Devo, and the desire parents have in protecting their children from the evils of this world. Devo would've been about seven or eight-years-old around the time of this album's release.
you should try a song by the band Cursive "Excerpts From Various Notes Strewn Around The Bedroom Of April Connolly, Feb 24, 1997"
This song is about Gollum from lotr.
So is The Package..
We are the pet of the government simply put
I thought it was a message to his actual son as a young child. That I'm your protector.
There is that side of the lyrics but they’re more in a controlling perspective than just protective
Yessssss I finally got one of my recommendations. Deftones CMND / CTRL now? Pretty please? :D
This song to me is not so much about the terrorist attacks on 9/11, but about America's reaction to it.
Think media.
Pleeaaasee react to Troye Sivan's "Blue Neighborhood" Its a compilation of three songs and three music videos that follow a really deep story and I think you'll love it!!! Love ya Jersh!!!! 💖💖💖
Oh, did you ever do reaction to Tool - faaip de oiad?
What a great song!can you do tool live j!!erk off 8,25,1998 please
lee marsh he already did the entire Opiate album
John Carpenter I’m asking for a live version which can be viewed it’s a great performance
Can you react to Conan gray
Heather
Fight or flight
You should react to some madonna
jersh- hopefully its a normal song
bro anything involving maynard james keenan is not gonna be anything close to normal lol
Your a pet to the drugs
🐑🐑🐑
No mention of the political implications... Swinging to the rhythm of the war drums.... New world order? He didnt speak to this but reacted significantly!
Despite the overtly political references (swingin’ to the rhythm of the New World Order)this always brings to mind controlling/abusive parents, or significant others. Stay with me, safe and ignorant....
Conservatives.
