- These lyrics from Tool's "Vicarious" delve into themes of voyeurism, media sensationalism, and human fascination with violence and tragedy. The song highlights how people are drawn to observing tragic events from a safe distance, almost addicted to the thrill and the feeling of being alive while others are suffering or dying. The lyrics question why society can't admit its attraction to tragedy and suggests that there's a part of humanity that feeds on the misfortune of others.
The song also touches on the idea that the world is inherently hostile, and survival often depends on devouring others. It's a critique of the human condition and the darker aspects of human nature, as well as a commentary on the way media exploits these tendencies for profit and a
One of my favorite verses ever are in this song: "Credulous at best, your desire to believe in angels in the hearts of men
Pull your head on out your hippy haze and give a listen
Shouldn't have to say it all again
The universe is hostile, so Impersonal. Devour to survive
So it is, so it's always been"
One of the many reasons I love Tool is because how self-aware they are.
I think that’s a good reason as I’ve heard 😊😎👍
The lyrics you read after the song are one of my favorite phrases/lyrics ever. Maynard has a gift of being able to say things in a way that seem perfectly stated
He is very insightful song writer , he’s got a skill I admire , he puts into words things that we all feel and know ( by all I mean those who want to listen to a great band 😊😎👍) thank you my friend I enjoyed your thoughts 👍
Rev. Maynard is at the pulpit

Glad you joined the Tool Nation, it's a awesome journey 🙏
Dennis , hi , if you go to my channel page thier are about 10 TOOL reactions , a PUSCIFER and other MJK projects , I went to see them last year in Manchester ( UK) and I did a TOOL merchandise giveaway after , I really do like the band a lot 😊👍
@@alan-reacts65 perfect circle 👏
Sliding down the Rabbit Hole.
😳👍
This song massages my brain and the lyrics just grab hold and don't let go
I can hear that too......its like a Rush and Dream Theatre crossover.....👍👍
Agreed , 😊😎
the social commentary on the human condition , and its done without really placing any blame. they are just stating basic human facts
But the delivery. The sneer. The simmering.The power. The anger. Then he just explodes. Triumphantly. And sarcastically.
@@heyskipj i agree , i guess i sounded like i was just meh about the song. i truly love the song , i have been listening to tool since 93. maynard is great no doubt
Drop D is Tools favorite Key 😂
😊😳👍
Yeah, the meter changes all over the place allowing the signature to stay the same yet constantly feel new. Schism for example has 47 meter changes.
That’s what was keeping me off focus but I’m a good way 😊👍
Don Henley needs to take a look at what these guys did! F the Eagles!
Great reaction!
Great reaction vid! Looking forward to more TOOL. Spiral out my friend 🌀🌀🌀👁🤘🏼
Thank you 😊, why don’t you go check out the TOOL playlist on the channel 😊 , there are 8 other TOOL reactions , plus a puscifer playlist 😊😊😊👍
@@alan-reacts65 I think I've watched them all, but will def check if I missed any. Cheers 🤘🏼
Just an excellent reaction, greeting from Oklahoma. Are you familiar with The Grudge by Tool? Peace
It’s on my playlist on the channel 😊👍 and thank you Tim , it means a lot to me , to get good feedback
@@alan-reacts65 Sorry bud, should've checked your playlist.
No need to apologise my mate 😊
If this one broke you maybe you should not listen to Prison Sex.😮
Get back into Tool with No Quarter. Or maybe back to back with Led Zeppelin’s. It becomes a lovely debate.
A debate 👍😊👍
Alan, always a pleasure! Would love some more Puscifer coverage along with all of Maynard’s projects! This would be a great place to start… enjoy on or of camera… ruclips.net/video/INbtbooYmaQ/видео.html
Matt , you’ve given the link 😊 it would be rude not share ( on camera ) after all it’s MJK 😎💥
