This is my first time reaction to The Tool and their performance of Sober. The whole song was very emotional and dark, I really loved the expression. This performance is as old as me can you believe? Enjoy!

His posture embodies the character within the song. It's amazing how easily he can control his vocals without being planted.
He’s mimicking detoxing which anyone who has done it knows that torturous hell
the whole performance was very dark, yes.
Finally somebody understands.
I've quit heroin and had covid. Covid doesnt even come close lol
@@Double44inthemorning You're lucky. Those with overactive immune systems really get effed up bad. I hope you've completely recovered. Congratulations on getting through your addiction!!
4 times so long. i feel you. stay strong
i could watch this performance every day and i will never get sick of it .
If watching reactions count, I pretty much do 🤣
Hello lovely lady! MJK is in the character of the addict while performing this song, it's not that's he's on something. The song was about someone he knew who struggled with addiction issues, and MJK really wasn't one to indulge. This is early in Tool's career, and in the years since then thru now when they tour, he's usually in the back of the stage, mostly in darkness. Part of this is that the lights throw off "the zone" and the emotional feeling in which he performs each song, but also because he feels that his voice is just one part of the band and no more important than the drums, guitar, or bass, so why should he be out front. Fun fact, I met him when he was in art college. My GF at the time was roommates with a woman who was in some classes with him and brought him over to their apartment a few times. There is a recording of him with his old band (C.A.D.) performing a song that includes some of the lyrics from Sober that was recorded at the local public tv station. It's sometimes found here on YT, but has been pulled down before. My ex-gf was one of the people working at the station that day.
Ali thank you so much for the info, I also felt the amount of real darkness coming from that song, it is incredible.
@@Katriinka If you have the time check this song's originall video. It gives an extra dimension to the darkness.
@@Katriinka Love your insight and your accent! Check out the song "Lover, You Should've Come Over" by Jeff Buckley. Preferably the Live In Chicago version. I promise you'll be astounded. I would love to hear your thoughts on it.
He really does whatever he feels like doing on a song/tour. I know that sounds overly simplistic, but it's true. I saw them on the 10,000 days tour and you never actually saw him clearly. He was in the back to the left of the drummer for the entire performance. The whole back of the stage was giant screens, so you literally only saw his silhouette the entire performance.
But I've also seen him perform in women's lingerie... so yeah. haha
it also cool he has an understanding fans. I havent seen one person in the comments being an asshole about it, so thta is really cool that you guys allow him to really focus on his art and perform however he feels that day. not every artist get that kind of good treatment. :)
Yes exactly. Both times I've seen them, his performance is unique and different. Always seems like he's evoking a mood. Wonderful!
That's how he performed with A Perfect Circle back in 05ish when I saw them
I saw him in Nashville on Tools tour with Primus. He stood in the back shadows the whole time in full riot gear. I only know that because he posted a picture prior to them coming out on Instagram. I didn't see him the entire show. But we didn't need to, it was such an incredible experience seeing those two bands.
Saw them last year on this date actually in Connecticut. He had two platforms behind the band that he'd use and hide in the shadows or he would just sit down while he was singing.
Do ALL of Tool, please. I can be wrong, but it almost feels like in every other song Maynard never sounds the same. I can swear! And whole band overall is just an masters in what they're doing. The most talented and deep band I've ever met. And they can take you to the journey every time you hear them.
he's one of the greatest rock/metal vocalists of all time...
Another great live tool song the salival version of "pushit" you will not be disappointed!

thank you for recommendation! :)
Agreed. Maynard’s vocals are amazing
I would love to see your reaction to this!!
@@dancarlson875 the one where he strangles a dude?😂
Katriinka, you are truly an outstanding analyst of vocal performance. You could have easily cashed in on this one, but you really picked up on the subtleties of the performance and sought to understand Maynard's intent. Tool is my favorite all-time band, but I've been so enamored with Nightwish for the past year. I've seen you react to both many times, and I can truly say you are a legit reactor who seeks to do justice to the extreme effort these performers give to us. Thank you!
Thank you so so much for kind words. This was very atypical but fascinating one. I really loved it tons.
I was there for this, many years ago. Still can't get enough of watching people see it for the first time.... Takes me back. Glad you enjoyed it.
early tool is assuredly distressing, disturbing and dark, and the music and mood unsettling. maynard's demeanour, the frailty of his voice and vulnerability of his persona is what sets them apart for me. it's often painful to go through it with him, especially once you know the lyric and can understand the themes. pure art.
I enjoying your reactions as always and a early happy birthday to you ..
I’ve seen the performance and many reactions to it, but I took my time watching yours. Great job!
I have been a massive tool fan since the first time I heard there album undertow when I was 18 yrs old, which is almost 25 yrs ago. Brilliant band, Maynard's voice is mind boggling. Another great reaction as always. Thank you for sharing it with us. 🤘💞💕
I hope you someday do Alice In Chains- love hate love live at the moore theater. I think you would rather enjoy it 😊.
Fucking great performance.
Absolutely!
Took the words right out of my mouth.
Amazing choice!! Maybe even Nutshell
Hell yes!!
katrinka! i love you! ill watch this tomorrow. gotta go back to sleep
I really enjoyed your video. I like the fact that you know what you're talking about, and that you get excited for vocal abnormalities. I was mostly incredibly excited that you recognize that his posture wasn't poor just tilted I subscribed and look forward to many more of your videos
Happy belated birthday!
Happy birthday!
Your quote: Standing that way on stage, lyrics lyrics lyrics. He is performing and playing drunk, for the song is about struggling with addiction "drink forever...start things over".
You should react to another group Maynard is in , " A Perfect Circle " . I suggest the song " Judith " , which Maynard wrote about his mother.
3 Libras too!
I was thinking it would be great to hear you cover this.
Thank you for this. I've been waiting for you to do this. Tool is the best. At least to me.😊....And after 30 yrs they are still going.
now that is one hell of a career! :)
Indeed
I love your reaction, your spot-on critique of how the band works together to paint a picture of the internal process of addiction and the cuaos they create in the world around them
Happy birthday!! Today is 7 November 2021
always love to see you kat...keep safe love you😘
thank you bobi! :)
“We are be looking at The Tool ‘Sober.’” Is my favorite reaction intro ever. So stinking sweet. I love it.
Trying to crawl out of his own skin is probably the best way I've heard the feeling that he's portraying described
I love how you stutter space you comments because you are listening so much. Your authenticity comes out.. great reaction! I'm a tool puscifer fan so this was a pleasure.
thank you so so much :)
and "a perfect circle" fan?
you are an intelligent person. I don't know why I am so addicted to tool reaction videos .... subscribed
This one my favorite rock performances. He really embodies the struggle with addiction. 💯🔥🔥🔥🔥
You need to react to EDDIE VEDDER from PEARL JAM. Amazing. ✌🤯
Great song you should watch the official music video and happy birthday btw
haha thank you! :)
More Tool please!!!🥰

I discovered Tool quite recently (1 year ago) and it was a chock. I recommend you watch drum cam version of pneuma (Dany Carey). Unlike other drumcam videos I’ve seen the sound mix is still regular (some drum cam video are just raw pickup and can’t hear the rest of the band as good). Not suitable for vocal coach reaction but still worth watching for yourself. This drummer is incredible.
I was in love with Tool, now I'm love with you
Loved your video! This song is one of the earliest songs written by Maynard (Tool's singer) and it's about a who's struggling with addiction. This is why it's one of the most emotional songs by Tool.
I see thanks for info! :)
Always waching you guys in palawan phil
The way you noted how they were creating an "unsettling" feeling at the beginning was spot on and was absolutely intentional.
The official video for this song is pretty much the definition of unsettling.
The thing about this song that amazes me is how Maynard (singer) can sing those notes while in that posture. Simply amazing. To have your organs so constricted while screaming is fantastic
Every time I hear this version I have no words.
"the tool" how adorable!
Maynard was skilled with his lyrics and performance. What I like is that lot of the songs have underlying messages and meaning behind them. One of my favorites by Tool was Schism, and I sadly haven’t seen many reactions to it here on YT.
Vicarious and lateralus are Tools epitome of there music the best of all there range. right in to and patient are super chill song to listen too,
this singer - maynard has had a few bands over the years- he had a band after tool called a perfect circle- there is a song (there are many) but there is one called magdalena that is so good it gives me chills- idk if you would appreciate it as much as sober - coming from a vocalist point of view but overall it is my favorite maynard track- you should give it a listen and potentially a review - anyway thank you for this - it was unexpected to hear a classically trained singer appreciate the heavy music that i enjoy - i never understood how people dont love this stuff as much as i do - so it was a treat to hear someone like you give it the respect I know it deserves
Maynard is in character with his stance.... a living god. #ToolArmy
I loved it. It was powerful!
Hi Katriinka, shout out to you from The Bahamas - I love your reviews/reactions... I think, in the genre of rock/alternative, a voice that may be incredibly different and unique and engaging would be the singing of Layne Stayley of Alice in chains. It's definitely a raw rock voice, but with some great blues and interesting range and mood. Love Hate Love live is a great one to start with, but there are many others that will amaze, like Nutshell, and Down In A Hole, Rooster and others - so many awesome songs and styles.I hope you
yes!
Dear Katriinka, Every time I see him standing like that I think he has a painful Back like somebody else is going through!! Anxious for Saturday! You and your back health remain FOREVER in my thoughts & prayers. 🎶👱♀️👗👠👠🙏💓
thank you shania! :)
Happy Birthday Katriika, Love from Buffalo Minnesota USA, Thank You for the reactions! I believe Maynards pretending to move like a drunk person, its just stage acting, and its very good
thank you tim, yes! he was completely in it! :)
Yes!
You should definitely react to Tool’s song The Pot!!!
Happy early birthday! Looking forward to the steam.
Since you're exploring rock, you definitely need to check out Halestorm. I'm pretty sure Lzzy Hale will quickly be added to your girlcrush collection. Check out Love Bites acoustic!
thank you for your recommendation! :)
tool fam loves you 🖤
I wonder what it's like to get stared down by Maynard for 10 minutes straight.
I'll think existencial crisis will ensue..
he stopped me in my tracks at lollapalooza in 93 they were on a tiny stage by the merch tents. I had never heard of them. but I stayed the whole time watching him. and became an instant lifelong fan.
I had a lightweight version of that experience watching the band Spear of Destiny back in the 80's. At one point the singer stared at me and I was sure if he wanted to rip my head off, the hate poured out of him. I suspect he didn't like the cut of my jib! If Maynard stared at me, I'm sure I'd have a Coronary.
I was front row during one of the shows on the Undertow tour in New Orleans in a place that fit about 500-1000 or so. Memorable.
I volunteer as tribute! 🙋♀️
F'in amazing! He isn't pretending
Your comment about being born the year of this concert gave me a 'lightbulb moment' that the Tool t-shirt I got from this very concert is also as old as you are...... Ouch.
We are be lookin at, the tool sober, for my birsday!
this song is art
TOOL is master crafted music!
I seen them perform in San Antonio Texas and he was off to the side singing, dressed in black. The other band members were dressed in white, one had a hospital gown and drummer in a white spurs uniform. 🧐🧐🧐🧐
Their is no other band like TOOL. Maynard is an amazing VOCALIST. 🤯✌
And I don't think there ever will be!!
Nothing compares to Tool
Unsettling... yeah that is a good way to describe it. Addiction in many forms is a complete life drain. If you have not lived it, it is almost impossible to describe. I feel like he really catches the feelings
Me sorprende saber de tí. Realmente eres muy Hermosa y con comentarios muy bien dichos. Felicidades y Suerte.
Hey is playing an addict in his movements and is taking about it through the song.
It's just Tool. :0) but nice reaction!
Maynard definitely has one of THE BEST voices period,, in my opinion.
Very emotional, especially when I can relate 😔
All this while wearing a onesie.
Next one she does needs to be with him in a thong.
Plz I would love to see you do more TOOL songs. I will subscribe now in hopes that you will.
Came for the Tool. New sub Great reaction. Check out the drum cam of Pnuema. Amazing live recording. Saliva is amazing too
♡♡♡
I can tell you are very knowledgeable about singing. Very good analysis of pitch. I tend to prefer perfect intonation, but I think the distortion works much better for the emotional weight of this song and performance.
KING DIAMOND- SLEEPLESS NIGHTS ( live at the Fillmore)
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
The pride of the Philippines Ms.Leah Salonga and Rachele Ann Go made a classic and best duet ever in their interpretation of the song MOVIE IN MY MIND (Miss Saigon)Please make a reaction--Thank You!!!!👍🎤🎧🎹🎶🎶🎶👈❤️🇵🇭
best band ever
I like.
That's true with the stage fright. I think he was tryna do some weird stuff to see what he could do with it and see if the crowd still loved it. So he could get comfortable
Please analyze "Elizabeth" by Kamelot from the "One Cold Winters Night" DVD. Roy Khan is an amazing performer and doesn't get the credit he deserves!
It is mainly strobe lights that freak him out but yes he’s usually in the back ground isolated.
I tend to troll RUclips for these kinds of reaction videos when i am on nightshift and i have to say i am finding yours actually give me a bit of a different perspective on songs i have known and loved for a long time, so thank you for that. This is a great showing of early Tool, but if you want a true treat i highly recommend reacting to the live version of the song Pushit from their Salival album. Not only is it's recording quality better but it is a much better representation of what the band has become as it has aged along with you.
Ok there are good voices , gr8 voices and unique voices . The most unique voice I ever experienced in my life is from a 70s progressive rock band called " pavlov's dog" mostly known from a song called Julia. To fully understand the potential of this voice pick any song of this band and listen it and with a vu meter on u will experience something u can't c in any other voice through time. Enjoy. Helios from Greece.
If you want to see the transformation in Tool check out Pnuema from their last album. Also Danny Carrey shows why he is considered one of, if not the, best drummers of all time. Heck, it shows how great the entire band is.
i really really really want to hear this lady sing this song for some reason- this would be such a good song to hear covered by a trditional singer - she couldnt do what maynard does but it would be interesting to me to hear her do what he is doing in that song
even Tools new stuff is powerfully voiced. MJK is one to put 100% into his part of the performance. I actually envy his abilities, hes also owner of a vinyard and works it manually as well as with equipment. I have 5 bottles of wine from his vinyard. hes a mixed martial artist, and go check out his other performances with other bands!
You only live once by suicide silence would be cool. Some SERIOUS vocals on that one. Love the video
thank you, will check! :)
scorpio!!! 🦂 me three!!
To Ms. Katriinka,
I hope you do a reaction video to Gary V Spain in Wish Bus. I would love to see how you rect for that wonderful cover song. I am a new fan of your and I really love your reaction ang singing voice. Keep it up! I will still continue supporting you! Love yah! Take care! 💓
From, your fan!
I see TOOL, I click. Simple. 🤘😆🤘
👍👍
Ja, Tool ist mein Ding! :)
😊👍
The Tool. 😄
I am not English native, didnt realize the significant difference. I was focused on something else probably :)
@@Katriinka well, your English is great. Keep it up!
Tool das welt meister
Katriinka , I think you should do a full blown cover of this song... how about it?
he is in a character in this performance
The song was based on a friend of the group where the dude wasn't creative or fun without being under the influence hence the name sober
The drums.
MJK certainly has a very unique stage presence. "Sober" is a very personal song, very emotional when done live, which may explain his unorthodox posture while singing. I've read that in later tours with Tool he stands in the background, almost behind Danny Carey, the drummer, not directly in back of him but on the side. It's said that the lights make it very difficult for him to get into the kind of emotional zone he needs to be in. Some say there is some stage fright involved. He has a similar presence with his other band A Perfect Circle. Not so much with Pulsifer. I regret not seeing Tool back in November 2019, I think back now that $500 would have been worth every cent especially now that this pandemic has reeked havoc across the music industry. There is a live version of the song Pushit that you should check out. It's a little different than the studio version, it's a little slower pace with a lot of emotions put into it. I just subscribed so I haven't seen any of your other videos yet. So just in case you haven't you might want to check out Queensryche with Geoff Tate especially their early work in the 80's up to 1992's Empire. Take Hold Of The Flame from a 1984 Japan concert will show you what makes Geoff Tate one of, if not the best rock/ metal vocalist ever. Their MTV Unplugged appearance in 1993 is a must see.
if this was too dark, you need to check most funny man in metal!
