      Yep yep. I very much enjoy your brake downs. For as many TOOL reactors as there are....and I enjoy watching anyone experiencing TOOL for the first time, your educated reactions are super cool old guy. Thats coming from another almost as old as you guy 😅 I asked that you take a listen to 10,000 days and Wings For Marie before, and suggested that you look into the songs origins first, and I am sure you will do a reaction to them, as I have no doubt you have been bombarded with this request. I respect that you don’t do the lyrical videos, and just take Maynard almost as another instrument, but please....if and when you do the songs I mentioned please do it with the lyrics, his voice is so soft it almost gets lost in the instruments...more so than it does in most of their music. Hope you are doing well. Thanks.

    This song has one of my favorite lyric sections of all time.
    "Overwhelmed as one would be, placed in my position
    Such a heavy burden now to be the One
    Born to bear and read to all
    The details of our ending
    To write it down for all the world to see
    But I forgot my pen
    Shit the bed again
    Typical"

      @fcon2123 3 года назад +13

      It holds so much meaning from a psychological and audial sense. This guy calls it the most "traditional" part musically. And that is the point - it is a harmonic release from the fairly disjointed rhythms of the song. The duality is it fits the story of the song too - that harmony is the moment of clarity the man Maynard speaks as experiences. It's his epiphany that he fucked up royally by forgetting what they said, and he probably doomed humanity because of it.

    • @brandonthesteele
      @brandonthesteele 3 года назад +8

      @@fcon2123 there's a major farcical aspect to the "dooming humanity" thing, which is one of my favorite parts of the song. The character that was "abducted" was heavily implied to be on drugs, and to be kind of a burnout as well.
      Even if he was in fact given all this information, no one would believe him anyway. He'd be just another freak talking about the end of the world, and this incredulous story to tell about aliens. That's hilarious to me, especially in contrast to "you are the chosen one" and "such a heavy burden".

      Yes, but the lyrics are an integral part of any Tool song, more so than any other band that I know of.
      It’s more than just singing a song, it’s more than telling a story, it’s more than playing his voice like an instrument, it’s more than setting a mood...
      It’s all of the above and just as important as Adam’s guitar parts, Justin’s incredible bass, and Danny’s inhuman polyrhythmic abilities and use of odd time signatures.

      @@paulweisgerber7654 I disagree. The voice, inflection, emotion, Maynard's singing is integral, but knowing every word he speaks is not. Obviously, the band feels the exact same way since they've declined to include lyrics in any of their album packaging, which they meticulously craft, until Fear Inoculum.
      If anything this "personality change" you speak of occurs when you force a completely different part of your brain to activate when you follow along with a lyrics sheet. Since tool very consciously chose not to include lyrics with their album packaging, despite the fact that most artists did in the 90s and 2000s, I'm going to go out on a limb and say that the way Old Composer listens is more in line with what the band actually intended.

    You sir are the best Tool reactor out there. It might have been a long song and long video for you, but honestly I would happily listen to you for an hour more. Your breakdown is so technical and as an amateur musician I'm learning so much from you. Thank you Mr Decomposer, big love from Australia. For something less popular try Pushit (live Salival version) or maybe H, Jimmy, The Patient or Flood. Peace out bro don't ever change.

    as some have pointed out that Lost Keys Blame Hoffman starts this song off. Hoffman was the man who first synthesized LSD. The skit is about someone who entered a doctors office and refused to tell the nurse what was wrong. The doctor comes in and convinces the protagonist to tell him and that's where this song starts, with him saying ALRIGHTY THEN. Do your self a favor and read the lyrics. They are really brilliant how they set the chaotic nature of a severe hallucinogenic trip and being abducted by aliens. There are a ton of cool references about Charley Brown, The Grateful Dead, the X Files, the Matrix, etc. etc. so please read the lyrics without the song to get every line, then re-read them while the song plays to ride that wave of a trip about being the chosen one to save humanity but not being able to remember that message. enjoy.

      Fun Fact: Mike Patton has the largest vocal range of any other "rock" singer. The only other person who comes close is Axl Rose, who this feat is usually accredited to.

    I would love to see you do a review of the two songs "Intension" and "Right in Two". It's best if you had the CD, because they merge flawlessly the same way Parabol/Parabola do. In fact, I hope you do both of these Supertracks. Disposition/Reflection/Triad is another great Supertrack. So much to discover with this band's discography.

    Wings 1 and 2 WITH LYRICS!!! “Fetch me the spirit, the son and the father. Tell them their pillar of faith has ascended. It’s time now, my time now give me my wings”.... I’m sorry but that is some of the greatest commentary on human ego you’ll ever hear... like all his lyrics. Truest medicine I’ve ever discovered. And the Dead can come along too!! 🤘❤️😆

      If you do Wings 1and 2 with lyrics you need to do Jimmy from Aenima and Judith from A Perfect Circle then Wings 1 and 2. Those songs form a story arc concerning Maynard's mother. Very heartfelt, angry and tragic.

    Maynard doesn't scream like that as much. It's always pretty calculated when he does it. He has a few songs where he shows off his lungs but when it comes to the more distorted esque screaming vocals, Ticks and Leaches off of Lateralus is the song to check out. It's also one they don't play live frequently cause its pretty harsh on his vocal chords.
