ABOUT…
I am Rebecca and I am one heck of a passionate vocal coach/singer/songwriter/impressionist/health/fitness/self- improvement/anything that makes me smile!! I love anything vocal/singing related and geek out on it every day. I want to motivate and inspire others to follow their dreams…corny? Well maybe but it’s true. So what’s motivating me?? I had a huge tumour removed summer 2017 and my ovaries and fallopian tubes. The tumour was the size of a 20 week baby!! However, despite not being able to walk for a couple of weeks, and feeling generally awful…. It has made me create and do what I love! It wasn’t an easy time but I won’t let fear dictate my life. I didn’t think ‘why me’, there are plenty of horrific issues people have to deal with…it’s not always smooth sailing. It’s true when you hear, ‘Life is short’, the crazy thing is, I am glad it happened…I appreciate life even more and practice gratitude everyday…It’s so easy to get caught up with the little things…and I do sometimes, but look at the bigger picture, will it matter in a year or two…?
Also thank you for all your support. It means a lot.

Dude my new hobby is watching people hearing tool for the first time
Mine too. RUclips started recommending these videos to me and I watch them all lol
Same!
Yep lol lame I know Haha
Something beautiful is about to happen..
Ditto!
The worst part about listening to Tool for the first time ever is you can never listen to Tool for the first time ever again.
I disagree. If your heart and mind are open, each time can be the first...
Third eye is like the first time every time
Because we have all tried heroin. Cocaine probably would have been a more relatable reference.
@@ChuckBeefOG you dont necessarily need to have tried heroin, i think its common knowledge that people do it once and keep doing it. Once you pop you cant stop lol
I was very lucky. My first time I ever truly paid attention to Tool was live, Lollapalooza 1997. I felt paralyzed the entire time. It was glorious.
When you listen to Tool, the silence you hear afterwards is also Tool.
Your comment just knocked me to the floor.
Before I could get up...
I knew you were right
That's an absolutely brilliant statement of pure truth. Thank you for that.
I hear a heartbeat on the song. This song has helped my trauma anxiety a lot.
Damn, that kicks ass!
Sick comment. 🤟
20 years later and these songs still send chills .
Songs rough for me.. pops recovering alcoholic
To weirdos
We are getting closer to 30 years here, Holmes.
@@davidsaunders3682this helps me with my recovery. I used to listen to it to help my anxiety. I hear the heartbeat in the song as well as hearing his vocals and lyrics. We all do it differently though. I wish you well in your journey.
@@jeremyjames1659weirdo? He's a genius.
Vocal Coach: “you can’t sing well hunched over like that”
Maynard: “oh ya? hold my wine I made in my own vineyard”
hahaha brilliant
absolute truth.
While practicing Brazilian JuJitSu
I'm glad she liked it. Maynard has always been about emotion. He sings what matters to him, and IMO that peaked with aenemia. Undertow being a close second. Opiate was pretty obvious what it was about. Then Tool traveled into personal matters and immediately launched into the history books. The feeling in songs like Sober and H are so intense, and get even more intense when you know the background. But watching this, its obvious why tool toured a lot more with lateralus than the previous albums. That was much less personal. You can see maynard reliving his addiction on stage as he sung this. Powerful...
MADLAD absolutely killer comment.
Discovering Tool 20 years late - is certainly better than NOT discovering Tool at all. #rockon
It sucks man :(
Better late than never, my friend. Not all the live shows were as great as the video critiqued here; Maynard James Keenan typically would play with his back to the audience, completely disengaged. Still unique as they would always have a live jam session, but still. Do not be sad you weren't around to catch them live (they don't tour anymore, and haven't for awhile). I can only be happy those 4 musicians found each other in this world and created their music.
Enjoy my friend. Better late than never!!
@@youwish4555 not true. TOOL just finished a US tour in May and a European tour earlier this month. TOOL is also headlining Aftershock in October and they'll definitely be touring after the album releases.
@@zachthompson5335 correct, they've also been at Download Festival. I looked it up right after I typed that, and felt stupid. They sure as shit never seem to come through Detroit, though.
@@youwish4555 I totally thought your response to me was gonna say your OP was sarcasm...I thought I had missed the joke lol. Finger crossed they come through that area for you next tour!!!
The reason he hunches over, is if he sang standing straight, his voice would melt the faces off the audience
The 1990's produced some of the best live performances in history.
Right you are, Brother.
Couldn’t agree more
This and green day mud war was phenomenal
@@arthursusilopens659 Green day ? Delete that comment please
@@theyfearme1379 what's wrong with green day ?
Maynard is hunched over to suppress his energy. If he unleashed his true vocal power, half the audience would have died in the first chorus.
HONESTLY
Actually Sober is about his addiction to alcohol and how it destroyed who he was and everyone around him. One reason why Maynard's music is soo good is because it comes from a real place. A place he relives every time he sings the song. You can see him shaking from alcohol poisoning as he sings this song. Thats what the vocal coach is missing. Its not just an act to him. Its part of his history. Every tool song has a meaning, some of them are just very personal to Maynard. H is another one...
ChuckO, that might be the most badass statement I've ever heard. 😂
@@terryfuldsgaming7995 He has that posture every song most of the time.
Hahaha
Maynard doesn't get possessed by the music, Maynard possesses the music
Actuality, he's already possess by demons and is able to perform to our deprived and wrecked generation adequately by this demon enhancement. To give Maynard benefit of doubt, he may not even know this truth. Reality is, these are powerful principalities and evil realms; one that even satanism is aware of. Everyone with their "spectacular" ways. Rebecca is awesome with her Vocal Profession.
@@wudpecker5492 lmao what in the fuck are u on about
He is def one of a perfect kind that's for sure. Tool forever....
Wud Pecker
CIA bot
I don't believe this lady is a vocal coach. He voice makes me angry and irritated. She can't see he is forcing his way through stage fright. Social anxiety, it's a power testimat to his willpower and passion
He also has performance issues with big crowds...just look at his costumes at some shows. Look at how he crouches on stage like he is cornered. How he focuses on the music and conquers that fear every time. Legendary.
There's been entire shows where he just plays a shadow onstage. It's interesting, nevertheless, amazing
No, he doesn't have performance issues lol. He is portraying what he is trying to portray in his music. He is being a shadow of who he once was, a shell of a person. That is what this whole thing of sober is conceived off of, being sober and the addict, being beaten down by life. That's why he looks the way he does. Not only is he the best showman in the world, but he is trying to correlate the music.
If those issues were true, he wouldn’t have that Dirty Joe Taxi Driver haircut. Attention! Sus.
@@hardtymz2517 why do you think he used to come out on stage in a dress, or dressed as a member of the blue man band.you listen to them for 5 minutes and you're an expert...
For the longest time, he wouldn't even look at the audience...he would be facing the side stage...how long you been listening? How many shows you go to?
The best part about these reaction videos, is the fact that EVERY SINGLE vocal coach has the same appreciation for the music and the artists, rather than being up tight and not liking a genre. They appreciate the art and the dedication of the artist. Very refreshing.
I can’t sing and I love to listen to her break it all down. Gives you more to appreciate from the band.
and that every single one so far is in awe of his voice and sound at first,,, then when he yells MOTHER MARY WONT YOU WHISPER, every coach gets goosebumps lol
I would pay to see Maynard reacting to her reaction.
You got that right
I would pay to see your reaction of maynard's reaction to her reaction!
I feel like Maynard would be extremely dismissive of it
Josh Green ...and then i could watch your reaction to my reaction of maynards reaction to her reaction!
@@zvengally3502 awesome 🤣
We’re watching this woman’s brain change right in front of us.
@@imnotallergic ravioli?
The Truest Red-Pilling of all. TOOL
@@imnotallergic ravioli?
That was interesting, to see the effect his vocals and energy had on her boty, posture, eyes was amazing.
This is only the beginning.
When someone challenges everything you’ve ever known about your craft.
Maynards puts his heart and soul into it. His presence is incredible.
I made a woman make that noise she makes at 4:30 once. It was like 20 years ago, I don't know what I did, It hasn't happened since. It was as then as it is now a mystery.
listening to tool is the answer
xD Oh god. Was funny to read and then I clicked the timestamp and then I fell over laughing. My reaction is a mystery to me. What is happening here.
Edit: I had to think on this and I think I can relate to your experience. That must be it
Never give up my friend
lmao I'm dying :*D
She felt that one. The shiver, moan and head rub made me laugh. My woman does the same thing but not when listening to Maynard.
His posture was the uncomfortable and awkward feeling of addiction
Yep. It's performance art.
Its basically his kind of stance for performances. If you think that's weird, watch him dance like that. In fact, there was a guy who went on stage once in the middle of a song, Maynard tackled him to the ground and held him there while singing. He went back and forth on him lol. Yeah he can be scary.
@@Syncopated_ lol i remember that. The dude goes in for a hug and Maynard judo flips him and gets on top, keeps singin
I often equate addiction with having my underwear ride up my ass in a crowded elevator
It’s cause he has major stage fright and that’s just how he stands to try and cope
This song is so sad! My little brother died 3 years ago from snorting fentanyl.... So the song resonates very deeply for me! Please if you're addicted to opiates or any drugs seek help before it's too late. There's people that love you and care about you!!!
Lost my daughter in a similar manner. So I understand your feelings, one day at a time is all we can do.
@@marcusanton95 so sorry for your loss! I am abundantly grateful for Jesus. His comfort & strength has no limit!
Same here
My brother died the same way man , I cope with is threw Maynard's songs
Fought addiction for 5 years myself. Saw friends die. Sorry for your loss. I’m clean now 3 years.
I can confirm that Maynard has crippling stage fright, but there's also a big element of him wanting the performance to be about the music and not him. I saw them play live last year and you couldn't see him on the stage throughout 90% of the show. It didn't matter. The music, his voice, and the imagery they create for each song is more than enough to create an incredible experience that I won't ever forget. If you have the opportunity to see them live you absolutely have to do it.
He doesn't have stage fright. Early concerts he was in the front. The reason for him staying in the back is about sound. When he is back by danny, there is less bleed into the mic. Also its a polygon where all the band members can see each other while playing. He states while being in the front he feels like a clown.
I almost dare to say if you haven't been to a Tool Concert, you HAVEN'T BEEN TO A CONCERT PERIOD.
@@nathanmatheaus2930 He has said himself he has stage fright, he is also epileptic so he has to hunch in order to keep light away from his eyes.
That woudl explain a LOT. I have just seen him play a few weeks ago. He was on two stages flanking Danny Carey and rarely lit up, mostly silhouetted against the back images. His vocals were part of the total music. Absolutely stellar performance.
I saw them in 2000 and he hid in the shadows the whole show
"I'm finding this reallly exciting, and I'm slightly in fear at the same time."
Welcome to Tool in a nutshell.
I got to your comment right when she said it was like whos reading this to me
Yes
exactly...it's like, i'm happy, but why can't i stop crying?
Yeah but all their songs seem to blur into one somehow, like, everything sounds the same :) which is good and bad at the same time, cause it almost sounds like they invented a genre and then let it slowly die :))))
Nutshell??
I barely speak English
Tools are the reason why I learned English
All the love from Saudi Arabia
Love back from the USA, there are lots of other awesome bands to discover :D
I'm from Bahrain
What are your favorite tools? ;)
@@TheDurden84 Surprise, fear, a fanatical devotion to the pope and nice red uniforms.
Oh hell to the yeah. Enjoy my friend. Check out Nine Inch Nails.
Maynard is THE masterpiece. Check out his other band A Perfect Circle.
And Puscifer. Not for everyone, but most will find something they dig. "Oceans" is one of mine, as is Green Valley.
I’ve seen A Perfect Circle live and they were really good. I just didn’t like how Maynard is in the dark and at the back of the stage when I saw them. I would’ve liked to see him upfront like in this video.
LOVE APC....since the first release. And yes, all Maynard is Master of the Piece
The amazing thing about tool is that when you return to a song after while, you realize new meaning and emotions within the music. You bring your new experiences, wins, and pain to the interpretation.
Just amazing
Ugh…I used amazing twice in two sentences. That shows how blown away I was at the time.
It’s all good my man, you’re not wrong and very well said
I wish a woman looked at me the way she looks at Tool.
No no, the way she looks at chris stapleton
I wish women would look at me lol...
Yeah she looks kinda hot when she's in shock for some reason
My 'sis would literally drive her Honda civic from audurn AL to New Orleans just for tool when she was 19 (I think mostly just for Maynard though, LOL)
Dude... pretty quickly on I was like, “she’s totally turned on by this.” All in the body language.
I just want a lady to look at me the way she looks at Maynard being an alien in a ratty onsie. That is true power.
I laughed to hard at this
This is the way
Anthony KMS 😂😂😩
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lol! You are right. There is something about this man that makes him so awesome! Even in a ratty onesie. ❤✌🤘☠
It's pain music. When you've been through a lot of pain, it has to come out somehow. It's good that he found a way to vent, and the music he and the band have created from it is incredible.
It’s rock as pure as rock is. Zeppelin style!
I have heard this song before but seeing this live performance actually made me want to cry.
As a person who struggled with drug addiction for 15 years this song is so powerful. Even more so now that I'm SOBER.
Amen brother
I still wake up in sweat 14 years after my ski trip
If you see this, congrats, happy for you! 😊
For anyone who is an addict, recovered, or has dealt with an addict, “I want what I want” is the most powerful line from Sober
4 years clean of opiates, 3 years no alcohol...I can relate ;)
Agreed
For me as a current user the whole I am just a worthless liar etc part hits hardest.
This song and "The Package" by APC is extraordinarily powerful as an addict.
Yes
This performance always makes my eyes water.
i am in a battle right now as we speak! but i am losing
with everything
@@bcornbally8424 You can come through anything if you choose to.
@@paolom.6011 thanks your right
Same bro tool is just phenomenal 😢
Yeah this was before he started hiding from the crowd. He said he used to just pick a single person in the crowd to sing to so he wouldn't be intimidated by the size of the crowd. He'd kind of get into a new character for every song and just pick someone to play for.
Welcome to T00L… I love seeing peoples faces when they hear them for the first time… this was the best band EVER live!!! I’ve literally been to 7 of their concerts… I grateful I grew up in this era 🙌🏼🖤🎤
She looks like she needed a cigarette after that song.
Lol
thought the same thing.
Not exactly what I was thinking... but same thing in the end.
This is true.
3:33
This is the greatest reaction to one of the greatest musical performance of all time
The first time I saw them perform this I was transfixed, when it finished I had to watch it again and again. It is one of the best performances I have seen by a band. Big fan now.
TOOL makes me tear up and I get chills every time. Twenties years since I heard the for the first time and it has never gone away
All I know is that guitar contains someone's trapped soul.
Stormbringer.
Adam Jones is imo the best technical guitarist ever
It's the soul of Harry Manback's Italian "friend"
Norman Counts He’s great, but he’s not all that technical.
Maynard's posture is like an alien that has entered a body for the first time and is trying to figure shit out...
Reminds me of the bug from MIB in the guys skin. "you want me to put my hands, behind my head?.. Like this?" suddenly hes 3 ft taller
Best comment ever
lmfao
It's called a demon. Alien is a code word used to hide the truth. Peace.
This needs more likes.
Beat that desire to put a needle in your arm and this song will bring you to tears. Every single time is like hearing it for the first time.
Amen
You get this like no other re-act on RUclips. Thank you
Damn near 30 years later and people are still discovering tool. That in and of itself never ceases to amaze me.
Lmao when Fear Inoculum was released all of Taylor Swift's fans wanting to know who this new band Tool was that knocked her out of #1 on the charts!
Lol I knew of Tool but never got past a few songs until the Pneuma drum cam video. I know Ive been sleeping on this band for far too long.
Today was my first day
I just started listening to them yesterday. They’re so good... and I’m not into Metal at all which surprises me
I often wonder what it's like to be an artist of this caliber. To create something that is technically not alive that has the ability to stir up emotions and change people's lives forever.
His posture is definitely part of the performance, he's trying to emulate addiction and how crippling and distorting it is.
He was always like that. Now he doesn’t even show himself. He hates being on stage.
@@oddunb6190 agreed, I'm sure he suffers from stage fright
You’re exactly right
Buddy he emulates addiction he was so high on acid during this performance
@@Fhantasyy it’s pretty much impossible to become addicted to LSD.
I absolutely love her reaction to this when she talks about its dripping with emotion he's embodying the music. I love the way she's expressing this performance
Watching her heartbeat pick up and her spine tingle just listening to the intro of a song she's never heard is so much fun to watch... and this performance is not the only thing 'dripping'... lmao, she's fighting her feelings, moving her hair, twitching her hands... bet her toes as well... lol. It's so cool to watch her reaction... welcome to the genius of Maynard.
Tool is not a band, Tool it's an experience
Tool is tool XD
Exactly
You are so right about that!😎
It’s a story you tell and it ends with, “you had to be there”
HOLY HELL!! TOOL!?!? You HAVE TO listen to Wings for Marie and 10000 Days! Its a 2 part song. About his mother! Incredible in every single way. Tool is an ENTIRE 'NOTHER LEVEL!
YES PLEASE that song is absolutely beautiful and makes my throat thick every. single. time.
Judith from his other band A Perfect Circle is the first song in the series
big TOOL fan here too. I will never grow tired of it.
@@larrywhitaker9228 totally agree with you.
@@larrywhitaker9228 DEFINITELY have to start with Judith, then move on to Wings of Marie and 10000 days.
This performance sends chills throughout my entire body everytime I see it. I love it!
The very first time I heard this song, I hooked instantly.... Sober is one hell of a song and a rock masterpiece... This reaction has 3 million views, that's crazy.... LOL
You know who's amazing? That fella holding the guitar, Adam Jones.
Guy playing the drums aint to bad either
Omen yes, very much. And don't forget Chancellor.
I doubt she cares
Truth be told Maynard is the weakest part of the band.
danny carrey is the best player of them all
On posture, like all things, a skilled practitioner knows the rules, a master knows when to break them.
Plus, Maynard is an alien...
Maynard just has terrible anxiety at this point in time but you aren't wrong
Deep
His posture is in direct relation to the title of the song 'why can't we not be sober'
Shu-Ha-Ri
Maynard’s def in a Ri category
This guy has really severe anxiety. I watched a Whole live concert with him facing away from the crowd.
He said he's epileptic that's why supposedly
He wants the listener to focus on the art not the artist
Lol, it’s because he doesn’t see himself as a part of Tool so to speak, it’s about the music and not him. He’s completely front and centre in Puscifer and APC.
No no no. He does not have stage fright. Maynard has a condition where certain lights can cause him to pass out. He positions himself at the back because lights aren't as big a problem there. It's why at concerts in daylight with no lightshow, you will see him more up front because strobing lights aren't a problem there. For example, with Puscifer he's not "hiding" from the crowd at all. In dimly lit arenas with a light show, the visual effects team and Maynard have a signal worked out. If he is starting to feel dizzy from the lights, he moves his mic stand to a certain spot and the strobing lights are toned down until he moves the mic stand again.
True, the show i saw from them many song behind a curtain with animation( like a wall a driping blood were face appear and dissapear) laser light show to attrack attention and allow him to be himself
Could you imagine being married to a woman who has this level of appreciation of music...PURE BLISS.
Perfection
Best relationships I’ve had over the years were because of the music. Whether it’s dating a musician or just going to live shows.
And beauty
1 year ago.
I hope you have since found your rock goddess 🙌
It would drive me up the fucking wall...."stop pausing the fucking music woman....!".....🤣🤣🤣😉🙂❤
"oooooooooohhhhh.......shhhhhiiiiiiiiit...." Hi! Welcome to Tool.
Oml I saw this comment right when she said it lol
Yep
♥️
Exactly. I feel like this needs to be my new hobby. Showing Tool to people for the first time.
Hi bubbles
This is without question one of the greatest live performances of all time.
Freddie mercury live aid
@@jennyb8375 way to make a great comment into a pissing contest you pretentious fuck.
"One of the greatest..." should not threaten you, unless you have a little mind.
Tool playing Pushit while Maynard is singing in a bra and boxers is the best I've ever heard Maynard sound
R.Y calm down you fucking snob
@@reverendyakovofficial grow up takes a really big person to call someone names over a RUclips video. No need to get your little panties in a bunch..
When you dig deep, and the vocals are truly coming from deep inside your heart.
At this moment posture and technique disolves, the body takes over and acts on it's own.
Maynard had no clue he was hunched, his entire spirit was elsewhere, deep in the music.
you nailed the explanation of the raw emotions that this song brings out. So many to experience in such a short time, laugh, cry, chills.....and all of the others! It's why i keep coming back to listen to this version.
Should be titled “vocal coach gets extremely turned on from Maynard.”
A little flooding in the basement.
Eargasam much?!
I can feel the moisture through my screen.
Me too!!!!!
agreed, she sounds like mid way through an orgasm
Maynard: *breathes*
Rebecca: 😮
Love these reaction videos. It’s always genuine and brings me back to my first time listening to these songs.
One of the best performances of all time…he was locked in
Maynard James Keenan has grown since this 1990s concert. He was just a young man running around in an adult romper so people would have lowered expectations of him.
Then they blew the doors off that stadium because they knew they were good.
And to think Maynard was gonna go into country until the drummer, Danny, talked Maynard into singing progressive rock.
The song is about the lure of insanity lurking in your mind, quenched only by inebriation. Not of drugs or alcohol, but of the knowledge of evil brought about by learning dark truths.
Yeah. Ænima, their follow up album, expands on the concept more with songs like Eulogy and 46&2.
Now, in his old age, Maynard has a vineyard and his own brand of wine.
You should have a glass and listen to Tool’s newer stuff.
I once saw them on tour in 2003 in DC. Indoor auditorium.
There were fully-naked couples, covered in glitter, hanging from the rafters by their ankles, dancing like it was cirque du Soleil.
There were 3D wireframe laser images on the roof. There was whale-song in the background.
And Maynard speaks in that haunted voice, backed by the fire and rage of emotion over his mother, Judith, praying before dying after ten thousand days of agony at the hands of a terminal illness, and the hate and malice directed toward his father, a chicago faith minister...
And in that haunting voice, he tells his 60,000 fans to question authority, seek reason, research truths, and become greater than ourselves.
Meanwhile, he is wearing a thong. That’s it.
He climbs up the massive 5 story drapes about 12 feet.
The wireless pack of his In Ear Monitors are pulling on the back waistband of the thong, so you can see the crack of his backside.
He drops down into a crouch like a possessed entity, with one hand on the floor between his ankles, and the other still clutching to his microphone.
Then you realize that Audix OM2 was in his hand the entire time he climbed those drapes.
The man doesn’t put on “a show.”
He is creating •art.•
No two ways about it.
If I ever saw him on a street corner, I’d ask if he has any wine.
And if he even so much as opened his mouth to reply, I would pivot and run away screaming in fear.
Even though he’s pretty short, he packs a ton of charisma in a few baritone words.
And, yeah, the guy’s voice sounds like finely aged whiskey poured from quality oak barrels. But I’d still run away in fear that I would be possessed by whatever beautiful minstrel of evil danced from that devious silver tongue he uses.
Although, on his off days, I’m sure he’s just your Average well-read Joe with a Mensa-certified IQ and a big love for his mom.
I so agree!! I saw him in the 90s before they were famous. I have never seen anything that could ever compare to that experience. Maynard is a genius.
You should think about becoming a writer lol that was very descriptive and well written, I'm just saying lol
Jesus, my man. This is RUclips. I didn't even read past around 15%. Too much.
@@BPoweredLove, Jesus, my man, he's talking about Maynard on RUclips. Not possible to summarize. Sorry you're too dense to read a couple of paragraphs...
"Maynard was gonna go into country..." Please tell me you've seen Puscifer's "Cuntry Boner" video. It's the best.
I saw Tool live in the early 2000s and it was one of the single most intense experiences I've had in my life. Maynard's voice is strikingly beautiful and terrifying at the same time. Its like he is singing directly into your soul and your forced to feel these emotions that are stuffed into these lyrics. For those of us that have had the life experiences these lyrics cover in particular, its even more powerful because you understand how dark of a place this is really coming from. Losing the trust of those that love you. Feeling like you're nothing but trash and that your existence complicates the lives of those around you. Its powerful and sad truths spoken through this mans ability to convey the anguish, pain and anger of addiction.
I've been listening to tool since I was a child. Of course not grasping it all until I started getting older. I saw them for their fear innoculum release a couple years ago and let me tell you. What a show man, closest thing to a pink floyd light show ill ever get
My Som & I saw Tool 4 times. Once indoors at Sacramento Kings new arena , they have an amazing video & laser show to accompany their music. Did you know Tool allows NO mosh pits at any of their performances 😎
@@VeneerSlinger me too at Aftershock in Sacramento California, along with Korn, Slipknot, Lamb of God, Staind, Marilyn Manson, Rob Zombie, Chevelle, this was a thee day event & there were more band,s but these were the ones we wanted to see 😎
@@Marfoir0303 really? But here in the live video, a moshpit is seen
@@nejah.6487 A venue Tool is performing at recently put out a notice saying that in addition to no photography, there is no moshing or crowd surfing allowed at shows! Maynard James Keenan and Tool revealed a ban yesterday that may anger Slipknot fans.
I saw them live in Raleigh NC on this album tour. He turned his back to the audience the ENTIRE concert and stood beside the drum riser. There was a giant circle that was backlit so you could see his silhouette. They were incredible but I wasn't expecting that and obviously will never forget it.
Rebecca, you and Beth Roars are my favorite vocal coach channels. Your reactions are so genuine and very entertaining.
When you said you were enjoying it but you were also slightly afraid...that’s Maynard in a nutshell lol he’s definitely unique and lives in his own musical world.
The entire band is special. They’re all incredibly talented.
Check rick beatos channel.
Fixed Error If you believed that why TF are you here supporting a RUclipsr who’s making a video about him and his band?
I know I’m not gonna support any channel that’s talking up Kevin Spacey. That’s just creepy
2:09 - That moment when she became a Tool fan.
His posture and the way he moves come from channeling 100%. This is where his brilliance comes from. He knows exactly what he's doing 😎❤💜💙💚💛💗
If Maynard had perfect posture everyone in the first 10 rows' head would explode
I disagree sir....at least the first 12 rows easy
Organs would liquefy and eardrums would perforate
There would be peace on Earth
😂😂😂
I'd think the whole set would collapse. It's the equivalent of thanos snap.
I'm glad someone who isn't really into rock/metal (I'm assuming, vocal coaches usually aren't) still admits Maynard's incredible control of his voice and just the amazing technique and goddamn, the range.
It’s Maynard’s raw emotion at singing those words that allows him to exert that force while singing in that position. It’s amazing what the body can do when your heart and soul fully believe and feel in what you’re saying and feeling
I saw TOOL at the University of Puget Sound in Oct. '96.
I only walked 8 blocks to see them. ;-)
LoL, she didn’t know what to think when she seen Maynard for the first time. 🤣
She was having a maynardgasm
When you instantly become a fangirl and forget you are supposed to be commenting from the perspective of a vocal coach
accurate
it looked like she was getting wet tbh. I think she wants to dig her claws into him and get it rough.
Lol, I'm a straight dude and he makes me wet.
You noticed that right at 7:54 the little laugh she does.
His voice, guys... 😎😎😎😎😎
How has NO ONE else commented the most glaring feature of this performance...
MY GUY IS ABSOLUTELY BLASTED. LOOK AT HIS PUPILS. That's the most amazing part, IMHO.
bands like tool, ratm and others where straight edge as a political statement. bands like minor threat even kicked you out if you'd smoke or drink a beer during their performance.
They’re not into any junk guy, MJK and Adam had some experience with hallucinogenics for interests sake in mind expansion but that’s it.
I dunno folks... He seems pretty twisted to me.
exactly, this vocalists expert opinion upon hearing this for the first time, she articulated very well what i imagine most people feel upon hearing this song for the first time. the song is powerfully emotional and has meaning and is pure artistical genus right down to his physical performance on stage. i might add the instruments, the entire band, this song would not exist without all artists in play, in collective collaboration working as one in their creative effort. what a beautiful creative artistic endeavor that i for one will always listen to when the mood strikes.
Sober is almost 30 years old now. Let that sink in...
Well shit....
That's just rude. 😅😅
Why you gotta call me out like that??
WRONG! Maynard has been singing this song since 1987. Proof m.ruclips.net/video/fTp_cqbiYFM/видео.html
@@zerostarinc stfu
I usually laugh at people trying to figure out Tool & Maynard and I actually really respect her observations and the way she reacts to his performance is as genuine as the rest of us Tool listeners had experienced the first time! 🤘
Birdman 760 my generation of peers doesn’t really listen to tool, it’s sad. I was born in the late 90’s and I played some tool for them last week and they told me to play “rock that people know” I just looked at them and turned it up
@@JUNKINYOURTRUNKK Brotha, you 💯% made the right choice haha🤘
This is hands down the best reaction to this song. Her reaction when the 2nd chorus came through is exactly how I felt when I first heard this song. You have a new subscription from me, ma’am.
He's captivating the first time you see him 😍😍
Love how open minded you are. True unbiased professional.
Open minded?!? open minded you say of her!?!
he just RiPpeD OPen heR miNd!!!( she had no choice )🤯🥴👍
I agree! I really enjoyed viewing her experience.
I think she's ready to graduate to Third-Eye.. :)
Maynard is somewhat of a performance artist. He does his own thing, he doesn’t perform like anyone else at all. He is riveting onstage.
Probably the greatest footage of any song ever created in my view, musically so good 'Sober' is taught in music schools all over the world, the delivery, the power, if you are not emotionally exhausted watching it then you are basically, dead!! :-) love this first time reaction, funny, thanks
Love watching vocal coaches or whatever hearing tool for probably their first time, it's amazing. They always comment on Maynards look on stage and how amazing his voice is especially in the position hes in. U can see they're just overrun with emotions and words to say they can't even get them out sometimes.
Honestly, this is the right reaction to tool.
Spot on. That was an epic performance... that song always gives me chills.
Yeah They aint your average band.
Sounds like she had a lil orgasm. Understandable lol

It amazes me how 25+ years later, giants like Maynard James Keenan & Layne Staley still aren't universally recognized by music lovers everywhere-- regardless of genre --for their transcendent singing voices
Layne.
Britton Thompson both of them SOOOO much better than Nirvana or Pearl Jam! Like them, but way overrated & imho greatly eclipses by AIC’s & Tool’s talent
Layne is seriously underrated. I love Eddie too though
Now...I love AiC but Layne gets too much of the credit that Jerry Cantrell deserves. Their unique blending of vocals is what set them apart from all the other 90s groups for me.
L. S I think what he meant to say was that Jerry doesn’t get enough credit. Not that Layne gets too much.
Her reaction is my favorite thing in the world right now, I love her and Tool
This is a theatrical performance. Maynard of course nails it. Tool! 🤘
He writes lyrics after the band makes the music. The other guys deserve so much credit!
And in the case of Fear Inoculum, he could have done some more writing of lyrics. I feel like he contributed so much less than on other albums.
Have u guys ever tried singing a song on Kareoke you're totally unfamiliar with? It's like impossible and for him to see through the music and come up with those badass melodies is impressive. Not to mention the fucking lyrics. Every member of Tool makes Tool what it is. This isn't one of those bands where fans only know the lead singer. Anyway, I'm just saying I don't think Maynard's contribution should be downplayed.
Michael Winsor But I think it‘s beautiful how everyone else gets to shine. Often times the vocals are overbearing and take away from instrumentals but not with Tool. Everything fits just perfectly.
yes
And the music videos... to imagine how they all connect in the end...
Music doesn't have that synergy anymore
Welcome to the maynard rabbit hole ;)
It's cozy in here, don't wanna leave
the rabbit hole is deep
Let the rabbits wear glasses!
@@Vivi2372 that's a comment of the month for sure
😂Good one 👍
I love that you're reaction to it is so amazingly accurate. Tool is like that in almost every song. And if I remember correctly MJK actually took a few years off from singing because he did harm his vocal cords. They're amazing.
I saw Tool play Gammage Auditorium at ASU in 2006 and I cried the entire time they played Sober. It was really intense. Justin's bass was slapping my jeans against my thighs.
This is great. "Sober" was my gateway to Tool also, but in '93.
I saw the music video on MTV. It changed my life forever and wasn't the same anymore. 🤘🏻
Ah yes, the good ole days when the M in Mtv actually stood for Music...
Watching it on MTV & VH1 I had to see more. The night I bought the CD my discman played that hidden track 1st, as I went to bed. I wondered what the hell I got myself into. Still turn it to 11 every time.
Matt Dudester “11”? You don’t have to keep listening to it through your disc man.
For me it was Prison Sex in 1993
“That feeling that I just want to cry” Tool’s mission accomplished
Totally awesome and awesomely filmed during daylight so we can actually see the band the stage and the huge crowd
He is every bit of even better live as on a CD, I started listening to TooL when people hadn't realized what kind of raw emotion was put through the MIC, and even more descriptive sound. They can't and never will be copied or duplicated
Maynard is just an incredible talent. I absolutely love all the music he puts out. He's a mad scientist lol
It's always a joy seeing someone get their Maynard cherry popped.
Indeed.
🤣
I discovered tool a couple of minutes ago by this particular video and I felt shivers down my spine. I'm speechless.. How can I miss this for so many years..
I see he is also in Puscifer and a perfect circle, which I both love, but his performance... Tool is something else
@@allikitos anything Maynard does is amazing. And hey least you found Tool now instead of later. There's a video on RUclips that has every single tool song n album. Bout 6 hours plus worth of music. Very much worth the listen and familiarizing yourself with Tool's music ;)
@@caitlinwilder5982 thank you very much.
The posture is, of course, a reflection of the song and the plight of the addict. As a person who has worked in substance abuse and had my own substance abuse issues, this is an incredible powerful song and this performance only augments it. Incredible. And great analysis
In the 90s I found a tool album at cash converters and I got their message it shaped my life, lucky enough to see them live plus their other bands true pure music
