"Repugnant is a Creature who would squander the ability To lift an eye to heaven, conscious of his fleeting time here" My favorite lyric of any song ever.
Definitely brilliant, but neither are anywhere near the most complex. A big thing they both have done brilliantly is tread the line of what people are able to comprehend and push that boundary farther, while other prog rock bands like Dream Theater have much more limited appeal because theyre too complex for most people.
Part of being brilliant in the world of art is being understood. Like a Chinese speaking philosopher with a Russian audience. Your intelligence is irrelevant if they can’t understand you.
@@annabulgariu3707 You must be illiterate. even with the help of auto correct, you still manage to f' up your grammar. To understand Dream Theater, you have to understand literature; which is something you lack.
@@RuRuGoesRawr And you got all that from a RUclips comment, On the internet, where anyone can type something as simple as: "Hey man, u r wrong!", And still have good grammar. Relax, bud.
@@jamelakajamal yes you did , tool songs are for anyone to interpret has they feel . it always sounds simple at first but then you start thinking about it and you find many layers . that's why the band never explains their songs . for me m.j.k is one of the greatest songwriters of all times and I am 51 years old so I have some miles
@@avigayegos1496 Steven Wilson, Neil Peart (RIP), and maybe Roger Waters are the only people I can think of that are even in the same league as Maynard.
Hosea Matthews for me what determines how good a group of musicians is is not how complex their form of making music is but instead its how they express the emotion that they are going for
I subbed because you GET it. What you said about how tool makes you think. Holy cow man you not only understand but you feel it. Love your honest reactions
Absolutely! So many out there are doing "reactions" just to get watches. He actually listens and truly takes in these songs. Of all varieties. Not just Tool.
You gotta check out some "Lateralus", "Parabol/Parabola", "The Grudge", "Vicarious"... Oh forget it. Just listen to Tool. It dosen't really matter which song you pick. They are masters.
Like pretty much anything, the entire mer de noms album is phenomenal, orestes and probably brena being favorites, gravity, vanishing, weak and powerless off of 13th step, disillusioned and so long and thanks for all the fish off of eat the elephant.
Yea A perfect circle is definitely great, if you love tool and Maynard. Pucifer is a good band of his too. Like Remedy ,and mother sed, brother. It's alittle different than Tool. But something to check out 😊
My 2nd favorite tool song of all time. I absolutely love the smooth slower part, into the tribal ancient drums symbolically moving into the modern guitar climax. With a sad but important song topic. Such a perfect song that can only be defeated a grand masterpiece
You are SO right when you speak of Tool’s intelligence, and teaching deep meaning. The song lyrics to ‘46 & 2’ speak of a genetic evolution to higher consciousness. The syllables of the lyrics to the song ‘Lateralus’ are timed to the mathematical concept of the Fibonacci sequence. 🌀✨
Lateralus, amazingly enough was just a coincidence. If anything it speaks to how easily the Fibonacci Sequence pops up in nature, and in our subconscious.
@@swismotion not a coincidence... Danny's idea... he was in a religion that dealt with numbers and math. Not only do the lyrics follow the sequence but the guitar parts.. evem when the lyrics begin (time stamp) and so many other details I forget them all. Its neat if you like that stuff. A lot of research out there.
Everything about Tool is done for a specific reason. The name "Tool" in itself is amazing. I believe we all get something out of every song, and we use their music as a "Tool" for self-discovery & insight. Simply in a league of their own. Amazing!
Bro you slayed this reaction. Alot of people are going to flock to this reaction and I bet you'll see alot of positivity because people respond to genuine sentiments like what you conveyed. All of us are guilty of it in one way or another. It takes a real open minded person to break those cycles and have a true desire to want to try new things. I would love to see you react to Guns N Roses- Civil war lyric video. You've made a fan here for life.
Everytime I hear this song I think to myself, "Hmmmm this is probably not a top ten Tool song for me. Yet, if this song was by any other band, this would be my favorite of theirs." And that in a nutshell is why I think Tool is in a class by themselves...
Tool has this way of ruining all other music for me. They are just so different. So raw and real. I can come back to some Undertow shit after a long hiatus and just get “wowed” all over again, and let’s not even get started on just what they did on the Fear Inoculum album......which imo is literal sonic perfection
Thank you, I've said it for 20 years, all 4 are world class, but Maynard and his words, pure genius, you do know he is also A Perfect Circle, more genius writing and music
Jamel, as long as I've been following your reactions, I've waited for you to do this song! Given how you feel the music & look for meaning in the lyrics, I knew this song would be an eye-opener. Indeed, Tool, both music and lyrics, gives us an opportunity to reflect, to analyze, to give our brains a workout. Be it social commentary, theological, etc., they give us the platform to think! From day 1, this song has really struck a chord with me. It so undeniably true. We've been given a gift - a beautiful Eden and the ability to think & reason, but what do we do, we create chaos, disorder, destruction. We continuously 'beat our brother down'. Never content with what we have, we need to split it 'Right In Two' - sad, sad reality!
ticks and leeches my man...you will love it!! its a big F YOU to the record company that told them they needed a heavy song for the record. Maynards best lyrical performance. and one of the best drumming performances you will ever hear!
There are a lot of assumptions about the lyrics of that song, but nothing is confirmed. Also the story about the fu to the record company is most likely made up.
Id imagine it was a big fuck you to the record company to be honest. Take a look at how all tracks flow with eachother in spiritual and humanity messages then boom hit you with a tirade against something. That had to be added later to the albums creation. Hence i believe the fuck you to the record company story.
Brian Farley ... there’s still good music from that era, IMO... but I guess the mainsteam music in that era was pretty damn vapid and shallow... I’d definitely agree with that, but there is still some great stuff in mid to late 90s music, IMO
i got to see one of the best lead-ins to the title song. maynard told a joke. he did the first 2 vovalizations from the song and asked the audience what that was. then he told us it was a pair of pants and then the rest of aenima started.
Fun music geek fact. The meter that they’re playing in could be considered a direct reflection of the lyrical theme. The musical “phrase” is felt in 3 (often considered a holy, perfect, and balanced number) but on the bars where he sings “right in two” they always change it to a 2 feel, instead of that 3.
I’m a child of the 1970’s. Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Emerson Lake and Palmer, etc. Tool is a recent discovery. I’m so glad I did. These lyrics are so poignant for the divisions today.
Dude, your reactions are spot on...and, great! Man, keep doing your thing. We look forward to your videos. Bro, you’re hilarious, and on the spot with all of the reactions. It’s cool to see an older person discover a band like Tool. I’ve been listening since the mid 90s. It’s pretty damn cool!! 👍🏼😎👌🏽🤙🏼👊🏼
Jamel_AKA_Jamal come to the Panhandle of Texas. These jams resonate throughout this flat, dry landscape. This is pregame music for those Friday nights in the fall. Specifically, visit Lubbock, Texas. This is the spot...Buddy Holly’s hometown. Texas Tech is here, Mexican food and BBQ, cotton, wine, peanuts, pumpkins, watermelons, “Friday Night Lights” towns pepper the landscape. It’s not East or west coast, but, folks aren’t in a hurry, they’re helpful, they’re pleasant and nice, they hold doors open for everybody and most folks go to church. Great school districts too. Most people sleep on places like this... 😎
Jamal, I am so happy to have found your channel. Your interpretations of Tool, and other artists, is heartfelt and as a viewer I so appreciate it. This is one of my favorite Tool songs, you did it justice. Thank you and God bless.
"Then they do this to you" I love your reactions; I love that you are enjoying Tool. I love how you dive into the meaning of the lyrics. What is missing is a show of appreciation for their instrumentation. (especially Danny Carey!) Their message can only bring the power it does because of the delivery.
My favorite band in the world ❤️ this message needs to be heard by everyone in the world. My favorite lyric : “Repugnant is a creature who would squander the ability to lift an eye to Heaven conscious of his fleeting time here.”
I fucking love around the 9:00 mark. The look of admiration, a little "are you guys hearing this", some surprise, anticipation, physically grooving.....all train wrecking into a blank stare.
Check out "Wings For Marie" (both parts) on this same record. Do the research and find the story behind the lyrics. If you're not sobbing by the end of it, something is wrong with you.
This song on repeat for 22 hours tripping on lcd is something else. Edit: Also Schism for about 16 hours. I don't condone it, but it was an experience for sure swimming through my mind, and looking at art while near incapacitated laying down. Great video man, I like how you address meanings in these songs, and give off good vibes while doing so. Props to your channel!
When 10 000 days came out i was young (don't remember exactly how old) and my grandmother bought it like the day it came out (i lived with her at the time) and would constantly blast this album on her speakers and in her truck. Little blonde 50 yr old Canadian woman just blasting tool driving around in a truck looking back its hilarious. She came to pick me up from a friends house and we deadass heard her coming a block away. This whole album helped shape my world view, amazing music too. One of my favorite albums ever.
Time to go down the Faith no More rabbit hole. Super creative band with one of the best lead singers you will ever hear. Epic Evidence Midlife crisis Gentle art of making enemies Falling to pieces Easy
😊 This is one of the best songs recorded...EVER! TOOL is very cerebral and my favorite band for the past 25 years. I just hope to see them again LIVE. That is such a moving experience!
Since you seem to enjoy Tool and Maynard's voice, I suggest a reaction video to A Perfect Circle's 3 Libras or Judith or The Outsider or The Noose, take your pick, great band :)
Yes, yes, yes. They got into my bones back in 92, then it burrows into your soul when you go a little deeper. These guys are unreal and the greatest band of all-time.
So I just found a cover of this song by some men from India called Beard of Harmony. Huge Tool fan since I was 13, this cover is the only one I would publicly endorse to a powerful man as yourself.
Like Tool? check out "A Perfect Circle" and "Puscifer" Maynard James Keenan is the singer in ALL THREE BANDS. A Perfect Circle - Judith, Weak and Powerless, Outsider, and The Doomed. Puscifer - The Remedy, The Arsonist, and Potions. And "Momma Sed" These are a few good songs, so many of them are just fantastic! As always, Keep up the good work man, Much love.
The tribal drumming leading into the heavier drumming and metal riffs is us evolving from hunter gatherers to industrialization..wars getting more violent,causing more damage to the earth,weapons of mass destruction..going from a place where we somewhat had harmony with nature to a chaotic industrialized society..its amazing how they can tell the story without even using lyrics..blows my mind
#RIPJelle Tool didn't put out the lyrics to their albums because they wanted us to discover them TOGETHER. To learn to do together we first must learn to gather together. The artwork is specific to each album. Another way to set your mind free. You are perfect for this task. You are teaching people how to feel. ❤❤❤
Great video man... you are such a great guy If I have to recommend one song for you to react next, I would say lateralus... one of my favorite songs of all time
I came here a min after the post, and there's some how a comment besides mine???? lol appreciate you listening and taking peoples suggestions for songs and taking a deeper dive at the core of the songs and even band mates at times
I will NEVER get tired of seeing people listen to TOOL songs for the first time lol

Such a outstanding band.... Maynard is genius. I've been a fan since 92
Small enlightenment for all
Right!!
“Repugnant is a creature who would squander the ability to lift an eye to heaven conscious of its fleeting time here” WOW.
Indeed. The one and only MJK.
One of my favorite Maynard lyrics... and there are definitely a lot to choose from !
Oh yeah - this and Parabol/Parabola are just beautiful.
I want this on a t-shirt!
That is one of the most powerful lyrics ever written, it sums up the point of the song in such a poetic way.
Easily one of the greatest songs humanity has ever been blessed with.
Easily!
absolutely. more relevant every day
"They're trying to help us, they're teaching us" ... spot on my man!
"... they're teaching us."
TOOL, is a tool.
JuanMa Trevizan Maynard said before that the band is a Tool for us. To help us. But he said it’s also a tool, as in a dick. Lol, gotta love him.

Time to go down the Faith no More rabbit hole. Super creative band with one of the best lead singers you will ever hear.

😊 This is one of the best songs recorded...EVER! TOOL is very cerebral and my favorite band for the past 25 years. I just hope to see them again LIVE. That is such a moving experience!
makes my hair stand up every time i listen to it..
The depth of how you feel the music resonates with me. Serious biz. Subscribed. Keep makin dope vids homie. 🤘🤘
There's something about Tool that always calms me down...
Tool pulls from the 4 corners of the earth and brings babel together in one language. Nobody cannot find themselves in their songs!
Since you seem to enjoy Tool and Maynard's voice, I suggest a reaction video to A Perfect Circle's 3 Libras or Judith or The Outsider or The Noose, take your pick, great band :)
I just recently dove into APC and I can’t get enough.
The Package 💪🏻

Yasss the noose and the package! My two favorites of that album!
Try The Grudge. It’s one of Tool’s best songs if not their best.
Yes, yes, yes. They got into my bones back in 92, then it burrows into your soul when you go a little deeper. These guys are unreal and the greatest band of all-time.
So I just found a cover of this song by some men from India called Beard of Harmony. Huge Tool fan since I was 13, this cover is the only one I would publicly endorse to a powerful man as yourself.
Like Tool? check out "A Perfect Circle" and "Puscifer" Maynard James Keenan is the singer in ALL THREE BANDS.
A Perfect Circle - Judith, Weak and Powerless, Outsider, and The Doomed.
Puscifer - The Remedy, The Arsonist, and Potions. And "Momma Sed"
These are a few good songs, so many of them are just fantastic!
As always, Keep up the good work man, Much love.
The Outsider, for sure. Great track.
The noose by a perfect circle ❤️
Remember: Any Tool song you don't do is YOUR loss
The tribal drumming leading into the heavier drumming and metal riffs is us evolving from hunter gatherers to industrialization..wars getting more violent,causing more damage to the earth,weapons of mass destruction..going from a place where we somewhat had harmony with nature to a chaotic industrialized society..its amazing how they can tell the story without even using lyrics..blows my mind
Bro, your channel is giving me life again!!! I cant sleep and im jamming to your rock videos cause most of it is my taste of music
Same
You get it man. Use your brain, it’s our greatest “TOOL” 🤯

Tool didn't put out the lyrics to their albums because they wanted us to discover them TOGETHER.
To learn to do together we first must learn to gather together.
The artwork is specific to each album. Another way to set your mind free.
You are perfect for this task.
You are teaching people how to feel.
❤❤❤
Great video man... you are such a great guy
If I have to recommend one song for you to react next, I would say lateralus... one of my favorite songs of all time
When TOOL Plays, it's a living Organism.
I first read that as "living orgasm", which would also fit lol.
His other projects are amazing as well. Puscifer, The Humbling River is amazing.
I came here a min after the post, and there's some how a comment besides mine???? lol appreciate you listening and taking peoples suggestions for songs and taking a deeper dive at the core of the songs and even band mates at times
Correction RUclips decided to block the view of other comments till i reloaded the page......
Tool is so far beyond what folks think of music and how it plays out for us all tool is what we need
You are correct! They are teaching us! The drums in this song are just awesome
