Sober is Euphoric Perfection | Another Tool Reaction

- Опубликовано: 30 июн 2022
- Tool Reaction. Sober Reaction.
Perfection. Just because I sit there straight-faced does not mean I'm not feeling anything.
This song goes in the Got Me in the Feels category of reactions alongside Chevelle's "Remember When," Type O's "Anesthesia," and Nothing More's acoustic version of "This is the Time." Bravo, Tool. Bravo.

@15:10 When you accidentally quote Lateralus :)
I figured that was intentional, lol.
Please, please, please react to the live performance next! I think you will absolutely love it and that pink onesie lol. Trust me...trust me...trust me that performance will give you an even deeper appreciation for the song.
I definitely plan to do this. :)
@@MusicCatsandCoffee Glad you did this first. The Reading live performance is nice to see Maynard perform but the overall sound quality sucks. Missing out on the music in that performance.
@@ysinvangulik1004 yep, start with the album version :)
I cannot imagine my life without having heard this song and album nearly 30 years ago. It was a breakthrough for many in my generation.
I'm always late to things. Why not Tool? :) But I can tell this album in particular is one I wish I'd known about before.
Ditto
I actually think Ænima saved me from suicidal thoughts in 97
I love hearing everyone’s interpretation of Tool songs. Don’t let those goons ruin that for you. It’s fun trying to guess what a song means. Awesome reaction.
Yes! Personally I usually don't even like knowing what the actual meaning of a song is, as I find it more satisfying to discuss theories of what the song might potentially be about. Unless it's like a story where knowing enhances the listen. Otherwise I like to apply my own interpretations based on how it relates to me and my experiences. This is one of the many reason I love tool. Most of their songs have lyrics that are very subjective and can have different meanings and interpretations depending on the listener.
first song i ever heard from Tool, and still hits me the same as the first time.
This song was sung about a friend of Maynard and his fight with alcohol. Which has become an iconic song for anyone with any form of addiction except. Mine and that is I am addicted to Tool since 1992 and Maynard since his stint with Green Jello. Great reaction as always, still loving your finger action when you go to play the video 😆
Paul's wonderful and brutal bass playing at it's finest. Almost all just open Ds and D played as an Octave at the same time...just pure D goodness with masterful muting and picking. So much tension in this song and it's mostly the bass.
Well, bass IS the superior instrument, after all. :)
@@MusicCatsandCoffee We always agree on that fact! 😎
This song started me on a journey that has lasted three decades, with Tool as my personal favorite music group of all time.
Your interpretation is correct, of course, because it is yours. For me, I go back and forth between your interpretation and one in which the "I am just a worthless liar" bit is the addict himself, in how he deals with the people close to him.
“I don’t have words of how much I like this”. My first thought when I heard my first Tool song Stinkfist
I think you made Stalking Butler’s day. Of course they are still around. They stalk. This may be the first Tool song I ever heard. It’s one of the few I really enjoy.
This might be your best comment to date. :D
Don't know what your next Tool song will be but I suggest Jerk Off... it has talking Maynard, angry Maynard and the best "the Maynard" ever
Pneuma won the latest poll, last I checked. Just haven't filmed it yet...
@@MusicCatsandCoffee Forget album version. Drum cam live concert version is pure gold. I mean it.
Sober live is also great - Maynard's performance is so awkward :D
I've heard this song thousands of times. I'm watching the video to see your reaction and thoughts on the song. Feel free to pause and back up as often as you want. 😁
Fun fact... Maynard was in a band in the 80's and sang an early version of this song in 80's style
You should definitely watch the live performance from 93.
I think this is one of if not the most powerful song I've ever heard and I've never listened to a full album in my 38 years of existence.
I see that you said Pneuma won the poll for the next Tool reaction. Since you don't watch videos unless you've heard the song already...does this mean you ACTUALLY haven't watched the live drum-cam video of Danny Carey playing Pneuma?! If you have not seen it...PLEASE do a reaction video for it ( after listening to the studio/ audio only version if you must)!!! I would just love to watch your reaction to it...it is truly a thing of wonderment!
This and Prison Sex on MTV Headbangers Ball back like almost 30 years ago was my introduction to my all time favorite band all these years later
I love the reaction and I got the same meaning out of it that you did. At the same time, I have thought that the "I am just a worthless liar" section could also be the addict speaking. Maybe the first time it's the substance and the second time it's the addict because of the effects of the substance? There are so many ways to take the song, but whatever works for the listener is the right one! Also, BASS. I think I said it before, but Tool was one of the first bands that made me realize that the bass could be cooler than the guitar and it was thanks to this song.
I hadn’t thought of it like that but you’re right. And by “could be” you mean “is always” and to that I say, agreed. :)
Absolute brilliance.......this is the song that ironically hooked me in and caused me to be addicted to TooL for 30 years now......Maynard has been my guiding light, so many incredible lyrics, such insanely good music......and I gotta tell you too, I think you nailed something, the "stalking butler"....is the substance, right there for you to provide whatever you need, nice work Lauren, and Tool definitely does nothing by accident, cerability at it's finest
I must admit, being told I nailed a Tool lyric by someone really into the band is like reaching nirvana. :)
@@MusicCatsandCoffee Spot on my friend! Have a great (bass filled) Weekend!!
You absolutely need to watch that '93 live performance. If for no other reason than to see Danny goes Mental on the kit:)
I’m glad you think he’s speaking as the substance. I think he does both but most reactors just say he’s speaking as the addict.
This was the first song i ever heard by Tool
according to many ..... the drum intro must be one of the best ever !!!
The video for this song has some freaky/amazing stop motion animation. It definitely caused some nightmares.
That's a good idea listening to the song before you see it. This is the way I always do it.
Glad you liked it and surprised you hadn't done it already. But that's ok since now we got this video recently 😊
"There's a Shadow just behind me(46 and two)". Also"Making every promise emtpy". Yeah.
Haha! Stalking Butler was me, I unfortunately have since changed my name but as soon as I heard that lyric I wondered if you remembered lol. You asked me if I was a butler who stalks or if I was stalking the Butler. I think you found the answer to your question
"Spoil Alert" sounds like a label you'd find on food. Oops. :D
Or when you're spilling oil? ;-)
This is the song that had me hooked. I think I was like 12 when this was released.
First song I ever heard from Tool,thanks to MTV,when they actually played music videos! Been a fan of Tool ever since 👍🤘🤘
I dont mean to sound edgy or anything but everything this song is, is what I am going through. I sleep 10-12 hrs a day and get upset I woke up and hearing this song is just surreal to me that someone can know me so well without ever meeting me.
That's the power of music, my friend. :)
What an awesome reaction! I'm glad I suggested you do the live video after doing the studio version. Lol! Maynard's pink shirt is actually a onesie. A shorts onsie, more like a shorts version of union jack underwear. The live video is so powerful. The first time I watched it I cried. I cry pretty easily, though. Have a great weekend, Lauren! And Mocha!
I'm looking forward to the live one!
@@MusicCatsandCoffee Me too!
Yes, Tool is addicting.
#ToolArmy
Tool is my favorite band of all time, then Zeppelin, then Early Sabbath, Opeth, Chevelle. That’s my top 5
The subtitle as you paused on MOTHER did me in
I know grunge music has little relation to Tool, but I would like you to react to Jeremy by Pearl Jam. It's a very beautiful, but sad song and very powerful. It's just I've been addicted to it all week(and Dual of the Fates lol)
I know Jeremy. It's Eddie Freaking Vedder! It's funny how some might say, "How have you never heard 'Sober' before?" That's how I feel about a song like Jeremy. :)
@@MusicCatsandCoffee Oh yeah I forgot that you're older than me and lived at a time when Jeremy was everywhere lol
It's him taking to the addiction like a love affair
The song is about a friend of the band that felt he was only creative under the influence.
Before this I listened to the usual… P jam, chains, Metallica, etc. This song grabbed me and shook me awake, when I saw the vid on mtv years ago, as well as every Tool song since!
I might have to start calling them P Jam from now on. :D
The official video (and all of their official videos) is/are great. I know some people can't "handle" watching and listening to both, but that's how many of us first experienced Tool. I believe you have the ability to handle the over-stimulation.
I like "Tool Time"...
It's a keeper.
The Way You analyze❤️
Toolarmy 🔨🎸
Sober appears on MTV , I go buy the album the next day, and the rest is history. Life changing band! TBH I wouldn’t know if Tool changed my life or not, they were just part of it my whole adult life. And life is 👍
Perfect reaction…like the perfection of Maynard in a pink onesie(it’s not a T-shirt and you will grow to appreciate the power of the onesie) with a widow peaked Mohawk. Please record the live reaction🙏!!!
Calling that intro addicting made me smile considering what the song is about. I'm confident this song was my introduction to Tool back in '93 or '94.
Thumb up for the Video; but most of it...for your usual honesty !
Thank you for interpreting of a lyrics
C'mon Tool army let's give her a song that she hasn't reacted to yet that is euphoric perfection
Has anyone yet mentioned Andrew Wood of Mother Love Bone? It's in homage to his necessity to be wasted in order to make the art. He overdosed in 1990.
I've heard many times that it was about a friend who worried that he wouldn't be able to be as creative sober, but I did not know the friend was Andrew Wood.
@@sharoncarlisle9453 yep, and "Would?" by AiC is another tribute to him.
@@dan.j.boydzkreationz Yeah, I definitely know about that one. And Temple of the Dog.
That’s cool
I actually like that you repeat certain sections of the song in your reactions and wouldn't even mind if you didn't cut out the full restarts (although I understand why you to do that). I really don't understand people that seem to be so obsessed with hearing the song from start to finish without interruptions or repetitions. It's 2022 people, you can listen to the song anywhere you want. You don't have to watch reaction videos if you're annoyed by watching people experience the song in their own way.
It's the only way! If I kept the parts where I start the song completely over, my videos would be even longer BUT it's mostly because that's when I rock out. :D
:-) this was my goto karaoke song of their's
Awesome reaction!
Awesome channel name!
More early Tool!
Woo!
@@MusicCatsandCoffee at some point, when you get through all of the early Tool, you need to check out this live performance Tool, before they were famous, put on in what seems to be some Philadelphia bar. It's just them on some super small stage, Maynard's intense stare just boring holes into whoever he looks at, rocking that entire place to the f*cking ground. It's...amazing.
@@voidwraithprime8521 I agree with this! These early live performances are absolutely amazing in their own right, even though the sound quality of those videos is often not the best. I saw them live just a couple of years ago and they were great, but the energy Maynard brought to the stage when they were starting out is something else entirely.
Undertow was a brilliant introduction to the world for Tool. It's brilliant, but infantile for what would come later. This band just continues to make their best album every time as the sound matures.
So, what you're saying is that you're drunk on Sober? Loved the reaction, as always. As for interpretation: interpretation is always a personal matter. It's shaped by your experiences, your life, your heart. Interpretation is never wrong. I'd love to hear more of your interpretations of Maynard's lyrics. As a side note, I love the outtakes at the end. Please, keep them coming. :)
OMG ur still awesome. 👍😊✌️
Yeah, I hate when people don't hear the original version first. And it's ok, we've all heard the song before. Believe me, we are here for YOUR reaction because we enjoy YOUR personality. We love that you appreciate Tool. So, you do it your way.
BB actually does a pretty good cover of Aenima. I recommend checking it out
That may have been the one I saw. It was Ben and Aaron at the House of Blues. I think...
Peace friend!
✌️🤘
Great reaction! Thanks
This song is a rehash of his Burn About Out with previous band Keenan's Children of the Anachronistic Dynasty (KCAD). Same main riff, time signature, similar vocal tone but faster and not as brutal.
Good job
Third Eye live is great too
Prison sex is also a good song from the album
The fact that you used the word euphoric and spoke about getting pulled back in at the end of the song is a sign that Undertow should be in the near future.
Maynard is maynardfactured.
Brilliant! Brilliant. :D
Bottom is my favorite from this album.
Just a suggestion but Tool does a live cover of No Quarter by Zeppelin on Halloween
uggggh idk what to eat while I watch this, lemon cookie ice cream or peanut butter cup ice cream :thinking:
spoiler alert: it turns out pb and lemon taste pretty good together :3
Don't know if you have received any requests for Crawl Away or Intolerance but I'm pretty certain that you would love them
Crawl Away is a must listen from Undertow
If you listen carefully in the bit you repeated, far left side there's a voice *from outside your room* of someone saying "hey, hey, " something muffled and knocking like your parent complaining about the noise.
Why can’t we drink forever 🥃🥃🥃 drunk til I die
This song is actually about Paul Reubens/Pee-Wee Herman getting arrested in an “adult” movie theater in 1991. 😂 Sorry, I had to make a joke about the lyric army.
Fantastic song & great reaction, as always. ✌️🤘
lol
I'm watching again, and at around 4:50 there's a little skip or jump. I don't know if it's on my end. I just thought I would let you know. It's really no biggie, though. : ) Edit: I wish I could give you a second 👍
Yeah, I noticed that but no way to fix it. At least it wasn't a whole verse or something! :)
not sure which I enjoy more...the opeth reactions or the tool ones....(depending on what substance/'s you're on xD)lol
(slipknot is pretty dope too)
although I see you haven't ever done an EPICA song!!
"once upon a nightmare" plz 🥰🎶
0:42 yes!! you don't check live stuff till you've heard the album/studio version....or else you got nothing to compare it to.
5:15 yes we all know what you mean 😋
14:15 also super yesss, I've always been of the mindset that what it means to you is what matters, even if the artist was aiming for a different interpretation. the beauty of free thought
Glad you went with the studio version. The live version sucks as a first listen.
The hardest part of the Tool library to me, is I put all their music up against the Undertow album
So damn euphoriaric
Euphoric
i'll give you a dollar to troll tool army and react to any live version of "Sober" that isn't the one they demand
Dang, no more use of the phrase “tool time” after the grand debut lol
Not upset at all! But that live version is something special
Unfortunately I can relate 😔 ✌️
Eggs ackly
A few lyrics are wrong in that video.
"Past and done" etc
I don't know what it is. I tried multiple times to grow into Tool. Nothing works. And that while I know that Opeth fans mostly like Tool too. It's such a different approach to music that I don't see the similarities. Someone help me out. What is it I do wrong? Tool's music just doesn't fit me (until now)....
I know a guy who’s a big Opeth fan that hates Tool. Says they’re too boring. I’m a big fan of both. You can’t force yourself to like something.
@@dutchmastah07 🙂 Given your name I assume you're a Dutchman. Ik denk dat je gelijk hebt, maar het feit dat ik dit kanaal echt waardeer, mede natuurlijk door de inbreng van Lauren, dacht ik nu gaat het toch nog wat worden. Echter, haar enthousiasme brengt me ook niet verder tot nu toe. Is niet erg. Jouw bevestiging dat het zomaar kan zijn dat Opethfans niet direct fan zijn van Tool helpt me met het idee dat het geen aandoening is of zo... 😉🤘🍺
@@markblaauw4961 nah. I used to roll my weed in DutchMasters cigars back in the day
@@dutchmastah07 Ah OK. 😄😄
If you don't like them then you don't like them, no big deal. Tool isn't for everyone.
If you like bass a lot was wondering why you don't react to The Red Hot Chili Peppers
Its crazy how much live from Reading is better than studio version
Dear awesomely, outstandingly neurotic nerd, is it that straightforward? How about the double negative in the chorus? “Why can’t we not be sober...”
Straightforward and perfect. Not to be overdramatic, but the double negative is everything. :)
