“The drummer is good.” Understatement of the century.
Ikr 😂😂😂, he's only one of the greatest drummers alive
Don’t have to be so ignorant
Someone should show them the drum cover of this song
This drummer uses both bongos and congos? Genius!
those who don't get it. . . don't get it. Art in motion. That's what it is.
"Judith" was Maynard's frustration with God. "Right in Two" was his frustration with man.
@@tuna5618 he dont have to follow any religion... tool is a religion for hisself...
He was molested by his uncle at age 11..hence song from first album..11/undertow-tool..and his whole below middle class family r christian..a devil will always infiltrate to breed hate..and he blames God for everything
@@tuna5618 how does it do nothing good..must she be a depressed atheist in a wheel chair..that is when the devil will eat u alive..recognise the true enemy
@@seelenwinter6662 humanism..the new deciever movement..if the devil cannot be God..he will make us feel like we r
@coitinsforyourocky thats all good and well..but humanism is the concept of becoming a god and not needing God..u talking of humanitariasm
This song is legit one of Tool's best songs - ever.
One of the best songs any human being has ever recorded period. This is the definition of a “modern classic” like I hope in 50 years they’re still examining this song like its Bach
One of my favourites
Look up bearded Harmony's cover of right in two. You won't be disappointed :)
They have so many masterpieces and best songs ever....they are an anomaly
@@RosettaStoned462It is almost ridiculous. They do not have one bad song. Greatest band of all time considering all factors.
"Repugnant is a creature who would squander the ability to lift an eye to heaven, concious of its fleeting time here." So powerful.
Powerful, and sadly accurate.
Why does everyone copy paste this lyric, like no one cares, it's not even their best lyrics or most meaningful.
@@spooderman8064everyone's impacted by things differently. Why can't you just let people like things?
doesnt make a difference when everyone is a TOOL
Their deepest lyric in my opinion, humans have a nasty habit of taking our lives for granted, wether you believe in God or not the fact that you are alive with consciousness is nothing short of a miracle yet we still take it for granted
I wish I could experience TOOL for the first time again, so jealous
Oh man
AcasualDream
I know, right?
Right! That be amazing! To hear Sober again as a teenager for the first time :)
AcasualDream I’m a 34yo FANATIC with a LOT of shows under my belt. I’m seeing the HOLY QUARTET for my 1st time on May 5!!!! Lamb of God on the 11th. HUGE month for me...incubus, bring me the horizon, Slayer, Amon Amarth, Cannibal corpse, and MANY others.
You get to again this year!
. . . in a way Lol
So many religious people never give anything rock/heavy a chance. You guys are really refreshing! Thanks for your honest and well-thought out takes and appreciation.
Totally agreed !
well that has much more to do with the music type you like, not religion. if you e.g. listen to metal music of all kinds like me, then you wouldn't stop that because it just wouldnt make any sense. It's more like (with me), that I am a lil bit more careful when it comes to bands such as slaughter to prevail, which I musically like, but in some lyrics have a rather anti-religious narrative. (which I don't blame them for)
@@liam1912 100% - but there are some who think all heavy music is the same. That is what I was getting at. They hear a heavy riff and it's "NOPE!" (don't even bother looking at the lyrics or musicianship). These guys are clearly not like that. I was not implying that all heavy music is the same - some is pure crap - of course, all musical genres have everything from pure genius to pure drivel (which is also subjective, yes I know).
Thats true, my dad is mormon but thanks to him i started listening from kiss,nirvana,radiohead,tool to cannibal corpse, gorgororth and obituary and he likes them too!
@@henestilou9788 ha, I was raised Mormon.
I’m atheist and this is probably my favorite song ever. It’s pure poetry. You don’t have to be religious to connect with the lyrics and message. It’s a very simple message. Not easy for us to put into practice but very simple!! Also Danny Cary is easily top 3 drummers in history.!!! 🐵
Anyone that starts a statement with “ I’m a atheist” is clearly not and just low IQ it’s called Dunning Kruger Effect.
100% agree with everything you said.
I'm Agnostic and I agree with everything you said.
Same here
The song lyrics are true ❤️
I'm amazed the pastor didn't catch on the line "cut in two" and "cut it all right in two" it's a reference to king solomon's judgment when he proposed cutting in two a baby that was claimed by two women, one woman agreed saying that if she couldn't have him no one could while the real mother said spare the baby and give him to her. "Selfish ambitions"
I don't think that story is in the Bible
@@Schopenhauer69 I didn't read the Bible, but you could have checked before commenting...
This is the passage I found: 1 Kings 3:16-28
I think the lyrics shown in the video are incorrect. Im pretty sure he says „gotta divide it all right in two“ and not „cut it all right in two“
@@bigchungus8294 i actually thought it was "cut and divide it all, right in two"
Thought of that when heard it the first time. “Who cares if people cut something in two?” *glaring at Biblical reference about cutting baby in two. Ooooh 😳
It's not bongos it's an Indian instrument called a tabla. The drummer, Danny Carey was the student of an Indian tabla Maestro Alok Dutta. He's playing them on his drums by using a device which gives the tabla effect.
Thank you.
THANK YOU! For pointing that out. I was pretty annoyed when they said Danny was using bongos. Wtf. We should hang out and talk music lol
And to add to that, im pretty certain its actually his electric pads programmed to the tabla sound. I know he can play the actual tabla but it sounds to me that its his pads, based on some of the rolls and patterns he does (sounds like hes using sticks)
They are Mandalla pads. He has like 4 - 6 of them on his kit.
@@RudraDaas u can't get annoyed at something someone doesn't know about
Just a footnote for you; the drums are Tablas.
If I'm not mistaken, Aloke Dutta is who got Danny hooked on these type of drums and techniques after guest appearing on Tools re-version of Pushit found on the Salvial album. Pretty Flippin sweet!
He called the "congos" lololol
Bongos??? Ahahaha
Tabla are drums from India that are very finely tuned and played with intricacy and subtlety among Hindu and Sufi people to express mystical and spiritual concepts through music. I think that's why tabla drumming is appropriate for a song with such subtle and symbolic lyrics.
@@mkultra1982 Tablas are used in pop music here in India too. Has nothing to do with mysticism and spitituality. If anything, I suppose Tool were influenced by South Indian Carnatic music because of their use of polymeters and polyrythms in their traditional music.
This guy Rob looks like he is taking down Tool lyrics to use in a weekend sermon
Lol
Bruh 😂😂
I thought the same. lol. But he's probably taking key points of the song to discuss.
That’s hilarious 😂
Now imagine a progressive metal band that has so much deepness, that even a pastor use it to give a sermon, after thinking metal is evil stuff
I’m not religious myself, but knowing a pastor’s knowledge of spiritual and religious concepts, it’s good to hear him react to tool which always uses very very religious imagery
22:09 "vicariously" Speaking of that, you've got another Tool song...
ganondorfchampin haha my ears perked up at that too
Lol . Damn right
in the other video he mentioned how maynard is so patient with the buildup and I thought, Oh there's another... the patient lol
FWIW guys, I can see that you both love Tool. There is always this conflict between the love of music, and modern 'Christian' Evangelicalism. What you don't understand yet, is that GOD SPEAKS THROUGH MUSIC (and art, and literature, etc.). GOD IS POWERFUL. He can do that! But back in my day (late 70s/early 80s), Tool would have been the scariest band of all, because they DO dabble in the occult. They are the first, and only band I know of to openly embrace the occult. And now I know more about it!
Oh, I understand that God speaks through music, and I hear him in Tool's. Regarding Tool dabbling in the occult, one misconception is that the occult is satanic or otherwise anti-Christian. Dabbling it is dangerous as dark powers may interfere, but it's also the basis for much of Christian Mysticism, where holy men were trying to better understand their relationship with God.
And I love that you take notes.. not interrupt every second.. Best commentary!
Never even thought about that, but that's a great point. Some songs lose so much when they're paused, because of long buildups and setups.
Seminary school taught him that I bet. It's a great idea.
Yes!!! It's great that he does this.
YES! and they actually appreciate the music even if they don't agree with the premise a
Also, Tool doesn't have a drummer, they have a percussionist. That man plays any and everything live. Worth a watch.
4:14 “I like how they brought in the bass guitar”
The bass guitar was playing the entire time. You just didn’t know it.
They brought in the drums at that point xD
Rob, you're gonna be a TOOL fan before it's over with. LOL
Pastor Rob is already a tool fan. He just doesn’t quite know it yet. Lol
EXACTLY.
>Listens to TOOL
>Needs to convert people, so listens to TOOL again
>Finds another excuse to listen to TOOL
And so it begins. . . .
Then he tries to dissect Stinkfist...
🤣
I love how he says "I'm not really a fan of this genre..." but every time it gets heavy, he's rocking out!
I was respecting this whole process until he said "it would take more faith to believe in an evolutionary world view than a Christian world view." There is a big fundamental difference between the two... particularly that evolution is a scientific theory which considers various pieces evidence that can be tested and measured, and it can be used to make predictions which might turn out to be correct or incorrect. The Christian world view is a belief system based on stories that must be either believed or not believed. I think that continuing to conflate the two is intellectually unforgivable, so for that reason, I'm out!
Maynard should release a book of his lyrics and poetry.
say it louder for the people in the back
Then when does it start looking like a cult
@@jimbrew5060 it's already a cult, get used to it
Maynard is just a surrogate to perform, the lyrics are someone elses
“Let me put my poems in you.”
This song has gotten me through ruff times in my life. It’s so hard to be a humble person when the rest of the world isn’t. If there’s any youth from any background who is reading this and your going through some shit. Don’t give up. Things get better! Your not alone.!!
Listening to this one day on the way I was literally God smacked. I have listened to this song hundreds of times, but for some reason I never really noticed the line "Repugnant is a creature who would squander the ability to lift an eye to heaven, conscious of his fleeting time here". For some reason this early morning it came through loud, clear, and undeniable! I was literally shaking and looking up at the stars passing through the trees in the darkness. I was drawn to tears and couldn't shake it off. For days every few hours those words blew through my mind. I knew I had to take a large step to get back to God. I had been approached by several over the last year or so to attend an ACT's retreat, and I always had a reason to blow it off. I knew I couldn't say no if I was approached about the next one. Naturally, I attended the next one, and it was the most healing and renewing experience of my life. 3 years have past and since then, and I am eternally grateful for Tool bringing me back to God, or should I say I love how the Lord brought me back to him through one of my favorite bands. I highly recommend ACT's to anyone out there. You can only be a retreatant once. There is a reason for that.
I like the way you react....taking notes rather than stopping the video in the middle of playing it... Nice reaction dude
These videos are some of my favorites. I don't believe in religion but I thoroughly enjoy these guys and honestly, if these were the types of people I went to church with then I might not have turned away from religion
@@tresdabney703 I hear ya. I've seen many Hippocrates in church. I went to drove a Semi for Covenant Transport that glorified Christianity as the foundation of their success. Drove for 2 months and wondered why the had high powered weapons on the tight nit security. They were all crooks that robbed the drivers and when confronted, they were mean. A company of greed like most big churches as well.
@@tresdabney703 absolutely. More proof that you can't just blanket a whole group of people. I wish more people were this open to other paradigms.
your logo on the wall is split right in two
AV8R this guy...
in the logo the cross is the item used to divide it right in two. to me it sybolize the divide between faith and reality,
OHHHHHHHHH SNAP!
Thats beautiful...
Smooth
"Repugnant is a creature who would squander the ability to lift an eye to heaven, conscious of his time here"
“I’ve been to Walmart” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that caught me way off guard. Fine joke sir. Extra fine joke.
😉
Bit rude for a pastor though.
Thank you for listening to your subscribers
"Eden has enough to go around." I am, for some reason, reminded of: "Religion is what keeps the poor from murdering the rich."
Flawless Strategy I always thought that was a stupid quote.
Religion did kill Jesus
what keeps the poor from murdering the rich is also probably the reason they are poor...think about it.
Religion is the opium of the masses
Fact
Pastors on a trip man. Exactly the way the artists intended.
My favorite song by tool. It makes me shed a few tears eveeytime I listen to it. The amount of passion that Maynard displays singing this just gets to me for some reason.
Its not the headphones that are cool.....it’s Tool!
Nick Patton Patton good headphones help though. They do a lot of stuff with their editing and whatnots
Was abouta say🤙🏽
Lol!! I thought the same exact thing!
@@devonsharier2968 specially an Audiotechnica M50x set, for the non-professional those are badass
I am a blind musician who is a Christian and a very big fan of Tool. One thing I like about Maynard's lyrics is that they can be so broadly interpreted, no matter how you want to look at it, and he is very intelligent and does wonders with what he crafts. I would like to recommend another Tool song, titled Eulogy, it's off their Aenima album, one of my favorites by them.
Thank you for doing these videos.
Eulogy would be rough on them, though. . . most people assume it is kind of one dimensional hate on Christ.
It's actually about Ron L. Hubbard, founder of Scientology...when he mentions a failed martyr...at first listen I thought it was about Jesus, as well...
@@JHayes37 I don't think it's one dimensional like that. If I HAD to put money on it being about one person, I'd actually go with Paul D'Armour, but I don't like going in that direction.
From the tool FAQ:
*The big question: Who is "Eulogy" about?
As with most Tool songs, the song is vague enough that can be interpreted to be anyone / anything. The song is primarily about the death of something which most probably turned out to be a fake. Regarding the rumor that the band is no longer on good terms with Henry Rollins; he has recently been heard talking positively about Tool, saying he was unaware of any bad blood. In Modern Drummer (10/93), Danny mentions L. Ron Hubbard as the object of the song. One way or another, though, the song has a message that can stand apart from any specific target; the interpretation is left to you, and the specifics aren't too important."*
Might I remind that the boys are always saying things to throw people off. Maybe, to Danny, the song is about Hubbard, but maybe not.
It's about all the ones you said, and also Kurt Cobain (legit) and more people... But the real person who is about it's you, yourself, your inner you, the human being behind your mask of person
Sending my love. Anyone who is blind and carrys on through life doing something has my endless respect. I'm not religous but God bless to you.
I think you nailed it Pastor Rob and I am thinking and praying for you and your family
I've appreciated tool for 2 decades plus. This reaction is by far my favorite. God Bless.
Tool not just music..its a journey...a experience...keep spiraling....much love
AMEN!!! haha
It's...a tool!
Spiral out...keep going
Very well said!
Mush love, lol, jkjk
I love this. From the depths of my heart. Just discussing opinions and not being close minded has restored my hope for humanity.
seen these guys? ruclips.net/video/s_dmCGNSghg/видео.html :)
Hope for humanity is slim. Even with this
@@Rsekis I felt that we're a bit more doomed after watching this...
❤️
Amen to that sister, feel the same way.
Rob, I stumbled across your channel though your Jinjer "Pisces" reaction (rarely have I laughed as hard as I did to your bewilderment of Tatiana's vocals - made my day!) and have now listened to several of your Tool reactions. Damn I'm glad I found this channel. Love your and Gauge's reactions and the post song discussions you have. Keep making these reaction videos, they are awesome!
Thank you for the kind words. ❤️🙏
This is the only reaction channel I never miss a video from. The perspective is great and you are very understanding
Thank you!
@@roberthoughton7127react to van Helen don’t tell me what love can do and breaking Benjamin without you
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR LISTENING TO THIS! Next you need to do “TalkTalk” by a perfect circle!!! Its about talking like jesus but not walking like him
Yes! This would be a great video!
I second this!
Came here to say this!
Yes good suggestion!
Yes!
You should try vicarious. You'd love the message it has.
Cody Fanning yeah, definitely looking forward to that one and Jambi!!!
Cody Fanning agreed
Ryugo7 7 JAMBI!!
He he he oh oh oh 👍
Douglas Fitzgerald JAMBI
Maynards lyrics and music is pure poetry and i hope im fortunate enough to see them live again....breath taking
The work Danny did on learning these Tabla drums is outstanding. They are breathtaking!
Perfect song to react to as a pastor. One of the more overlooked Tool songs by most. Always was one of my favorites on 10k days.
phuse99 one of my favs too. Saw them at Download Festival last week. Only wish they could have played every song!
Overlooked? Definitely not.
phuse99 one of my favorites as well.
“repugnant is a creature who would squander the ability to lift an eye to heaven, conscious of his fleeting time here”
I address that line at the very end. Profound!
So true so true
Robert Houghton Thank you for listening and for doing this video. I love the way that you mention (at 18:43 ) the dividing of the veil (Matthew27:50,51) and how it was torn ‘Right in Two’ when Jesus died... you just gave a world of new meaning to this song for me.
How easily misguided do we truly become. It’s easy to become bitter towards God. It is easy to point the finger at Adam. It is much harder to take responsibility for our own hearts. Only when we consider the dividing of the veil, are we able to clearly see the hope that exists only in the person of Christ.
Jason Dubya-DEEZNUTS that’s awesome !
Up up
This is an absolutely amazing breakdown of the song! Thank you for taking the time to do this!
With all that is going on right now This was very delightful to hear. Very true and relevant to me. Love Pastor Rob and Tool.
You should react to Eulogy by Tool
Yes, this was going to be my suggestion also!
@@WesleyThibodeau It's an amazing song, and i think they would have some interesting things to say about it.
@Bryan Mack I mean, just look at the lyrics at the end.
To ascend you must die
You must be crucified
For our sins and our lies
Good-bye
Now, im an atheist, but I'm pretty sure i know what he's talking about.
@Bryan Mack I am really not knowledgeable enough to talk about this subject, I gave you my opinion take this as you like
How do they feel about Scientology
NEVER CLICKED SO FAST 💨
Awesome.
Right? And it's totally weird b/c "pastor". . . .but he seems like an okay kind of guy.
jsmyth024
Pastors are normal people too 👌 definitely pastors out there who abuse their roles and are totally absorbed, but you can’t label all of one thing under an umbrella.
Only clicked for tool
I love the fact you keep an opened mind about, quite honestly, everything. You both have a keen intelligence that is both detail oriented as well as creative. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. And of course hats off to one of the most important songs of all time.
“ it’s like it’s built into chaos.” Love it.
I've been a Tool fan for quite a long time. I also happen to be atheist although I genuinely appreciate and enjoy this channel. As a former musician I can tell you that Tool is a masterpiece in everything they do, musically. With all that said I think you dissected the song pretty well. Although, Maynard frequently paints a picture for his listeners that does not always speak for what the song is actually about. The "monkey" he speaks of is definitely human because he is very much a person who lives his life based on facts and not faith. I dont think he leans his lyrics toward a divine creator as if he actually believes that there is.
I would agree.. my take from it is that he is throwing evolution into the song with the monkey to human reference.. playing off of religion and saying why would god create humans that fight, kill, wield clubs and knives, sometimes even in the name of their chosen creator. Maynard, from all accounts including his own, is not a believer. He has some tough takes on christianity and religion in general. I do however respect some that choose to believe or live by a religion, it is good to believe in something, can help get you through things and can help you stay grounded. And while many believe in good things.. some obviously abuse religion, like anything that can be abused.. just often on grander scales.
I couldn't have said it better. I'm also an atheist but I subscribe to this channel. I love philosophical discussions, and a Tool critique is as philosophical as it comes.
Maynard is not an atheist and has detailed his struggle with faith.
I believe he may actually be referencing a quote in the movie “The Prophecy,” where Lucifer says something like, “how I love you talking monkeys for this... know more about war and treachery of the spirit than any angel.”
It’s also safe to say that none of us personally know Maynard, and what his true beliefs are. However, we do know that he spends an awful lot of lyrics based on Biblical facts and reasoning. Which would lead me to believe that he is knowledgeable of the Bible, and does believe in a higher power. It’s highly doubtful that Maynard is an atheist.
There are a lot of accounts of devout atheists turning to Christ, once the “truly” dive into the Word and understand our Creator.
@@DodeyPotroast Just because he is knowledgeable about the Bible, doesnt mean he believes in what's in it. I have friends that have read both the Old and New Testament and Quran but are devout atheists still. Just search around and you'll see interviews where he clearly says he despises organised religions. Now, he does come across as a spiritual person, but not necessarily a theist. But as you said none of us actually know what goes inside his head.
One doesn’t simply listen to TOOL. You feel it. You breathe it in. You live it!!!
The verse you had stuck in your mind is what I go to when I feel like I'm slipping in my faith. If you hear this song live, you can almost hear his voice tremble during this song. It's so powerful. This is TOOL and what they are about. Giving you that echo that just bounces around your skull from the inside until you understand it. Maynard is a powerful genius that writes with a golden pen.
That's the really neat thing about good lyrics, you leave them vague enough that people can interpret a more personal meaning from them. It makes you feel a profound connection to the music that more "on the nose" lyrics lack. "Repugnant is a creature who would squander the ability To lift an eye to heaven, conscious of his fleeting time here" is an amazing lyric.
I like how you appreciate the guitar riffs and you're not even a fan of this type of music.. very cool
Gotta give credit, where credit is due
And you recognize the palm mutes 👍
I'm learning. Gauge is a guitar player so I've picked up the lingo. There's a video of him on the channel from a couple years ago playing some faith no more. I think he was 11 at the time?
Doesn't take much to become a Tool fan. Their sound is universal.
You can see why this was a popular request.
Love what you do. Keep being you.
Definitely my preferred reaction channel on YT. You guys actually react to and form intelligent thoughts on the piece in question.
Cheers!
Awesome reaction guys and I love the commentary at the end. Christ is king 👑
"These headphones are so awesome!" Brother, it's not the headphones that make it awesome, it's the experience that Tool creates that makes your headphones sound awesome! As I have commented once before, when I listen to Tool, so do my neighbors... Been on the Tool journey since '93.
There was no shortage of TooL resonating in my neighborhood this past holiday weekend.
Or the headphones make it sound they experiencing Tool live.
headphones really make a difference. use some cheap 5$ earbuds, then use some more expensive headphones. some things cheap stuff doesnt do justice
Even blasting it in my car isn’t loud enough when I can feel the sound lol.
🤣
This song always brings me to near tears. The entire album is a masterpiece from start to finish but this one is especially emotional
Absolute masterpiece
This song makes me sad in so many ways .. it describes the human nature in such a profound way. And its a sad truth . I would put this song up there with imagine by John Lennon which Maynard covered with a perfect circle. Just powerful in so many ways
Absolutely
You better strap in if you listen to opiate
Damn such a good song but it gets pretty dark😂
Hahahaha, yes!
Yes, please do Opiate
His head will cave in.
I actually think opiate is about organized religion and false leaders. Not Christianity itself
Thankyou for every video. It's really refreshing seeing another Christian so open minded, and full of joy.
Let’s go!!! You guys are awesome.
I love how he took the time to think about what angels must think of humanity. Quite a perspective
Also the instrument you thought were bongos/congos is actually the "tabla", a percussion instrument from India, just FYI!
Alan Hlozek takes a lot practice to get that good at them too, insanely difficult to play that well
@@lindonsmith7974 Danny Carey isn't playing the actual Tablas. He has some electronic drums called "Mandalas" attached to his drumset which he uses for such special effects. Look up Danny Carey Mandala Drums.
@@user-ix6qr5if5y he plays tabla at the studio, AFAIK. He got an Indian tabla player to teach him and all. I've already seen him talk that playing tabla helped him develop a greater sense of rhythm (drummers call it 'internal beat'). He uses the Mandalas to play live, as it wouldn't be easy to jump from the kit to the tabla and back to the kit.
I've been waiting for this for a while. My new favorite react channel! Please keep going with tool :)
I love how people all around, whether it be pastors, rappers, any sort of background can sit back and listen to tool and just listen to it. It shows how much tool has reach. It’s so amazing that I live on this earth the same time as this band.
I think this song is really close to how we all feel and for me it's one of the songs that helped me to not only look at myself but everything in all existence differently from b4 this song to after my knowledge and understanding of this song and I have loved the band ever sence and I appreciate y'all taking this time to help others God bless
You seem like a good person, Pastor. I've had issues in my life with people who call themselves Christians in the past. Mainly because they don't deserve to be called Christian. To be Christian is to be like Christ. And Christ taught unexceptionable love. I've met many "Christians" who have showed hate, or looked down on people who don't live a certain way. From watching you and how you handle people that talk badly toward you in the comment section, it seems like you are the type of person who spreads love to everyone. Thank you for that. You don't judge people for acting out of line(at least in the comment section). You embrace others thoughts and take what they say into consideration (from how I've seen you analyze some lyrics). I know I don't know you in real life, but this series is an amazing testimony towards who you are, your faith, and your God.
I was going to say something along the same lines. Good dude and clearly a good father. He doesn't understand evolution, but at least he's being kind to people. Being a human is hard work.
@Nunya Business I understand Christians are humans. And I would never expect anyone to be a saint, Christian or otherwise. But too often I've seen in churches, big and small, this attitude of disdain towards others they don't believe live up to their standards of what a good Christian/ person is supposed to be. Even though technically, according to the Bible, there are no good people. We are all unworthy. But Christ taught love. And I also understand their are Christians that aren't like this. I think Pastor Rob is a great example. And if this is how he leads his congregation, I'm sure they are great people as well. We are all human. And I believe no matter what your beliefs are, we can all use more love and understanding towards one another.
I’m not a very emotional person but many Tool songs make me tear up. Amazing musical geniuses
anytime i need an emotional release i vicariously... watch the whole world die? no i just watch 10000 days pt 1&2 reactions!
awesome video and all that except for one thing, that FREAKING fly noise you added when you were talking. even though i have headphones on i about swatted my hand at my ear like a dumby lol. keep up the vids, you guys rock!
I love that your willing to listen to tool I’m not a very religious person and I really appreciate the way you can take time to listen and react and the way you understand the song even though it’s different than my view Judith is about his anger with god right in two is about his anger with man
I'm not a Christian but you guys did a great review. Much love and peace be upon you both.
It would be interesting to hear your take on their song Jambi, in terms of the use of the word Legion
Totally agree
BecomeSnail
Jambi..... translation, " Lamb" in Finland. ( Finnish ) would be good song to hear a pastor break down IMO...
I agree. Jambi is a game changer for your senses and mind.
Jambi is one of my favorites. It's almost hypnotizing.
Excelent analisys! This is my favorite Tool's song ... it's really wonderfull!!!. This song is like a pounch in human pride of feeling superior to everything.
Great work ,... I really like your reviews, they are so focused in the sense of the songs , without any fanatic view, as anyone could image, knowing you are an evangelic pastor. Congratulations for a terific work!! my regards from Bolivia
Your review of this song Rob.. perfect. You get the message of this song. In fact this song brought me back to the spirit when I was at rock bottom.
-46 and two- and -Lateralus are (for me) the most spiritual without being religious. I would love to see your take on that.
Wouter Jennes couldn’t agree more! Would love to see them react to 46 and two.
Lateralus is also very interesting cause it's loosely set to a Math Equation, the Fibonacci Sequence
The premise is that humans would deviate from the current state of human DNA which contains 44 autosomes and 2 sex chromosomes. The next step of evolution would likely result in human DNA being reorganized into 46 autosomes and 2 sex chromosomes, according to Melchizedek.
The pattern in 46&2 of the lyrics is loosely set to the Fibonacci sequence.
Parabol/Parabola too
@@piratealeks6865 Reflection
46 & 2!!! I genuinely want to hear what you guys believe about chromosomes. Great work, even though my views are near opposite!
konasurfah i want to see that as well
Lyrics might be a little over there heads..
Vlad The Inhaler and proper use of grammar over yours..
@@tootsierooney8345 Shit, I used the wrong spelling of of 'their', right?! I have dyslexia, I always struggle with that one, I usually catch it though, but were/where/ware/wear messes me up every time...
Coming back to the topic; 'Opiate' should be the track most interesting for them to comment on, I'm surprised so few people call for it..
Vlad The Inhaler their is especially weird because the normal rule is i before e except after c, that’s a different misspelling than yours but still one people make
Loved your perspectives. You gave the song another layer of meaning.
I love your channel especially when your review tool it give me the excitement of some who has a genuine reach for the first time as well as the ties to the church and gives me a bit of a new light on my favorite songs
React to lateralus and parabol/parabola by TOOL
Lateralus is my personal favorite song by them mext to this one yup ill be up to see that video
Damn Pastor Rob was making that stank face throughout the whole he was digging it
love this so good ty.
You guys are the best. Keep the knowledge coming.
There are definitely some other Tool songs that would really make for interesting analysis . “Vicarious” “Parabol/Parabola”, “Jambi”, “Lateralus” “Eulogy” “Opiate”. Trust me, your subscribers won’t go anywhere if you throw in a Tool songs every couple weeks or so.
It's ironic they are stealing the great music of atheists to get people to listen to their supernatural beliefs.
LEO Mike I second Jambi!
Suggestion : puscifer - the humbling river ! Btw great vids guys
Excellent choice! Love that song. And it fits right in along the path we've been going down
Parabol and Parabola...
My favorite song by puscifer
Rev 20:22 imo
It is a beautiful song.
I love your reaction guys this is one of my all time favorite tool songs and the way you so elliquaintly describe your views on this have made me view the song from a different prospect god bless you and keep up the good work ❤
Great that you love it, God bless you and your families always
I'm definitely no christian however You guys listening/reviewing TOOL is restoring my faith in everything. If u can get them to play this in church I'll show up. Oh, and I'm sure yr headphones are great, but yr headphones are not responsible for the sonic audio, it's TOOL!
*The percussion breakdown, Danny Carrey is playing Tabla's
Puscifer is MJK third band and The Humbling River would round out an understanding of Maynards spiritual journey from Judith (2000), Right in Two/Wings For Marie (2006), Humbling River (2009)
Nice. We’ll add it to the list.
Robert Houghton Absolutely. This is a perfect fit for what you’re doing with this channel.
I was thinking Rev 22:20
@@roberthoughton7127 Add Grand Canyon from Puscifer.
Agreed 100%. Great song.
He seems cleaver like everything in the song has a meaning even beyond the lyrics. I def feel like I like some of these songs more than I would because of this. Very well thought out and put together in my opinion
One of the best songs of all time.... Of course I think that every time I listen to ANY Tool song.
Not bongos, or congas, those are indian drums named tabla. Nice reaction.
There actually electronic drums programmed to sound like those..
Wow, there are a lot of comments. I think tool is beyond talented. This pastor is cool in my opinion. He is very open minded, period. He speaks the truth about the Bible and knows his stuff. Maynard is so talented it’s amazing. The way he describes human nature is incredible.
@coitinsforyourocky people believe things I dont HaHa, go back to your cave troglodyte
I just love the visual of this song.. a couple angels on high looking down discussing humans with perpetual Picard wtf faces
I LOL’ed hard my dude! 😂😂🤣
EARL GRAY HOT PLEASE, PLEASE HUMANS
Good review!
First time here. I'll be back to see more.
I love watching these. Thank you for responding to your viewers’ requests. Tool is a masterpiece band. Everything they do is with absolute mastery musically and purposeful lyrically. I don’t feel there are many in the echelon of skill and care to precision that this band practices. As a drummer I have to say that Danny Carey is probably the most creatively articulate drummer on the planet. Oh and those drums were not congas or bongos. They’re Tablas, an ancient percussion instrument from India. They use tablas in songs that deal with transcendental, spiritual topics to create an almost psychotropic element of all religions. Most religions have some sort of sacrament or protocol they take part in that induces a higher state of connection with a creator. Indians use bhang, Egyptians used the blue nile lotus, Rastafarians use ganja, Peruvians use ayahuasca, Christ fasted in the desert for 40 days which undoubtedly created a hallucinogenic state, also some say Moses burned the bush on the mount horeb and the type of plant he burned had a purpose. Possibly DMT (dymethyltryptamine) that allowed Moses to tap into a deeper frequency of communication with God or some entity similar to what LSD or Psylociben would do. Burning a psychedelic plant and inhaling the smoke is used by many cultures around the world to induce such a state.
Anyways love the videos, keep it up. I think you are doing great work by connecting with people rather than separating yourselves from the “less than desirables” in society. Music connects people like nothing on the planet.
I suggest Another song by tool, called vicarious. It’s not in the vain of spirituality but it further delves into the psychosis of man and violence. Powerful song. Peace 🙏
Journey 2 Master Prison Sex or Stinkfist!! Next. Unless you want to melt your brain and hear the sound of eternity make you question reality and your faith n shit...drum roll please Danny...

There’s a sic vid on RUclips
Check it before you get wrecked by that DMT OR LSD whichever you enjoy n prefer
@SymbolicActs Who said anything about them questioning their faith? Nothing in my comment even suggests that as a possibility my friend I think you're making some correlations that aren't there. What I intended to make note of was the fact that this song feels and sounds psychotropic because of the use of instruments to form a soundscape of ancient spirituality....back when herbs and alchemy were a large part of worship to a creator. Plus the inclusion of Alex Gray's art throughout the entire album seems like a dead giveaway. Alex admits that the art is from his experiences on LSD and Ayahuasca that shaped his awareness of the divine interconnectedness of life and creation. The album cover represents the Godhead of ancient Hindu mysticism, Brahma - the God of creation. Not trying to break anyone's faith, just furthering understanding of the depth of a masterpiece.
Yep, they were tripping balls (no God), that was absolutely is a composite of past Religions, just like how all of Christians holidays and customs are, 25 December/Xmas Tree, Presents, Resurrection, so on and so forth ALL copied from others in the past - Christianity is the Apple of Religion, plagiarists and claim it is the best. While tripping on drugs that saw a burning bush, a snake turned into a stick, a lake was cut *right in two* , a talking donkey, snake and other assorted animals, it is a flat Earth in a dome of water (lol) and craters on the Moon are caused by the flood on Earth splashing out into space and impacting the Moon...lol No Science here at-all! All refutable, so many fallacies, double standards and hypocritical comments. Dig into the Bible, which I know better than many Christians, why? Because I know how BS it all is, ALL religions, not just this 1 variation out of the 40K that are on Earth right now. ALL of which assume THEIR version is the correct one - - Yet I know from REAL grounded facts, that all of them are wrong. Ask me how?
"Repugnant is a creature who would squander the ability to lift an eye to heaven, conscious of his fleeting time here." Amazing breakdown my man, I'm so glad you appended this segment to the review, I think this is the sort of thing many people were wanting you to catch. Well done.
Nice ... fly buzzing .... didn't catch it till i put in earbuds .. great song great video.
You guys do a excellent job, I like how you guys dont try to force your beliefs on others but both give a honest perspective. Awesome. God bless y'all.
Danny Carey isn't just "pretty cool" he's a god.
DC feasts on deities
Careful, you're going to rile the Christians over blasphemy.
Thats what im fucking saying! The whole time he's like "huh, thats pretty cool". Drove me crazy
All praise the metronome god who feasts on other deities (thanks ryan) to keep space and time in sync.
He is literally one of the greatest musicians in the world. And definitely one of the greatest if not THE BEST percussionists in the world. And i use that term because he does more than just a drum kit.
