You are NOT ready for "Wings" and "!0,000 days" yet. But when you do listen to them you MUST listen to them back to back and make sure you have the lyrics. If you listen to older Tool and then progress through the newer stuff you can see how Maynard has dealt with losing his mother and has grown as a person and artist. Just make sure you have a bod of kleenex handy as well.
Keep in mind that Maynard wrote the song Rev22:20 close to the time he wrote 10,000 Days. Seems all that growing as an artist went right out the window lol
@@l.ronhubbard5445 The song Rev 22:20, was actually written 3 or 4 years before 10,000 days. It was used in the movie "Underworld" that came out in 2003.
When it comes to vocals, Maynard is a man of mystery you never know what he's going to come up with. And have you ever thought about reacting to his other bands, A Perfect Circle and Puscifer
@@MusicCatsandCoffee any song but "Judith". Great song but bad example of what A Perfect Circle can do. A hardcore fan since early 90's(of MJK), I think that is the worst 1st song to listen to when reviewing A Perfect Circle. They have so many more great works.
@@MusicCatsandCoffee The Doomed, Orestes and The Package are much better examples of APC than Judith. Judith is just Maynard with a different band. APC has many songs that are much better.
I always thought it was "and wide as the stories told" And I wonder if the "la la lie" portion was MJK paying homage to The Boxer by Simon and Garfunkel
Vicarious is my clear favorite, although The Grudge is also fantastic, as is all Tool-tunes. But to me, clearly Vicarious. Perhaps both lyrics and music plays a part in this.
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.......MJK
Lengthy Tool intros - oh yeah. Vicarious definitely in my top 10 from them, MJK is such a master lyricist / social commentator. Even if not into doing live versions, you should check out Sober live (Reading 1993) if only for Maynard's stunning performance. And you really need to do Hooker with a Penis, judging by all your other Tool reactions should be right in your sweet spot.
“La la la”‘s and such are really an underrated thing. A lot of artists under use them because they think it comes off as lyrically lazy, and it’s just not the case. Think “A Day in the Life” by The Beatles.
I love Maynard, but I got into Tool for the music. The longer any section is, the more I enjoy the song. If you like their longer stuff and you like Maynard's low notes, you might want to try Wings for Marie/10,000 Days. But bring tissues. It's heartbreaking.
To me these lyrics are very sardonic and meant to be read between the lines, otherwise they seem very at odds with a lot of the messages that Tool seems to endorse. Even talking about belief in angels being silly and then on the title track his mom is an angel 😀
This just solidifies the fact that you need to go back and listen to early Tool. Don't listen to the current Tool poll, which ended up almost perfectly in reverse order of what you'd be into. Seriously...check out the early stuff and evolve into the later work. Either way, have a great day!
In wonderful ways, I live vicariously through your first time hearing these Tool songs that mean so much to me. And, that brings me great joy. I thank you. :)
Vicarious is one of my favorites. The song itself, by examination, is much different than most Tool songs, in a few ways. It's Maynard examining life from a different angle, to each all a simple lesson. The music is, as always, exceptional. It's easy for this song to play because it's such an evil, almost taboo subject, so that plays right into the evil sounds. Unlike other Tool songs where we have time to just take into the moment, Vicarious is a rip roaring adventure. In that way it's a bit like 'Tick and Leeches', but in a different way. Both songs feeling more 'metal' than most of Tools later work. All your comments are always appreciated. It's the jam! ;) Add on: I'm sure you've heard this already, but Wings for Marie must be listened to with 10,000 Days. It really must.
I won't even fib, this is one of my top three go-to songs to have blasting over the Bluetooth speaker to sing along to in the shower. Has been since 2006. Lyrically and musically, just so damn... what's the word... satisfying? Thank you for the groovy reaction! ALWAYS excited to receive your notifications. \m/
It's 2006 and you're at Wal-Mart at 12:01am Tuesday morning (new releases were always Tuesday morning) to get the new Tool album you've been waiting for for 5 years. You purchase this gorgeous album with trippy cover art, pull out the CD, pop it into your car stereo and turn it up. This is what greats you. I don't think I'd ever been more happy with an album purchase.
I got 10000 Days at a midnight sale too. Big line snaking through the record store parking lot. Midnight release sales used to be a common thing. I called up a record store ahead of Fear Inoculum to ask if they were doing one. They didn't know what I was talking about 😆
Some Tool songs have great intros. For example Eulogy which adds layer upon layer ( perhaps you might need to come up with new hand gestures for your headphone). Other Tool songs have a separate intro like Rosetta Stoned where the intro is Lost Keys. It sets you up for a musical masterpiece but brace yourself for Maynard's performance (which is going to render you speechless). I loved your facial expression when you heard Vicarious a second time, can't wait to see it after Rosetta Stoned's finale. And... vicarious has presented you the "low low Maynard" and the "la la Maynard".
If you want a showcase of Maynard's true vocal range you should try out lots of his APC vocals. Especially on the 1st album Mer De Noms. Well, his Puscifer project showcases more of his range as well. Appreciate the react.
Man im so glad to see you enjoy it, I would say I enjoy songs that build up to the lyrics. We need to see you do a top 10 of tool. I bet that would be hard to do. Enjoy your day and thanks for reacting to the best tool song imo.
Make sure to check out the official music video for this song, it's visually very powerful, one of their very best. You have certainly been bitten by the Maynard bug. I hope you keep going down the MJK rabbit hole long enough to explore the APC and Puscifer as well. Did you buy your Tool tickets yet? Shit is off the hook live.
My favorite TθθL songs rotate, as most everyone’s do, but this one regularly makes the top three. It reminds me of the stench of humanity that Agent Smith remarks on in The Matrix.
Another great one, Lauren! 👍 I'm with you on intros. I love long, interesting intros and TOOL are obviously one of the best at those. Also agree (and completely understand) your hesitancy about Wings. Those two should be among the last songs of theirs to react to in general.
Lauren, I love and support you no matter what grade you give songs. The harsher the grade, the more honest you are thus the better your channel is. You can be a "yes man" or be yourself. I prefer your true opinion. -one of your subs.
I’ve posted this before, but it’s why Maynard is the greatest lyricist of all time...this is astounding! 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.
This is still one of my favorite songs. Can't wait for you to get to Invincible. Like Vicarious, I had to listen to it a few times, then more and more and more.
I can't believe you didn't mention anything about angry Maynard for this song, I mean, that last chorus is some of the very best of angry Maynard. Good times. Looking forward to the next one. 👍
As for song intros...it depends on the song. My current favorite Tool song is "Descending", which starts with over a minute of ocean waves crashing against the shore, but there's nothing wrong with getting right into something awesome of awesome is on the menu...
Hello Lauren. What can i say. You are not like the usual reactors out there. Like simple but deep in the same time. Suffered alot and burned out. Made the heart of stone with protective barriers up. Tough person, tough girl. And that nervous smile , every time you get excited about something. It is shown , that you have been trough alot. And i like it , i like all of that. Just wanted to say , you are not alone. Wish i be there and give you a big hug. Similar souls can see each other. If you wana talk sometimes , for anything, just make a call to me. Wish all good!
Laur, on the surface, this song is about our desensitization. However, if you contextualize Maynard’s whole body of work, incorporating A Perfect Circle and Puscifer, it’s really about our lust for other people’s failure. In our never ending folly of artificially elevating our self-worth, self-importance and self-indulgence, we take solace in other’s failures. Maynard is all about us, we, being more. But, as long as we are a rubbernecking species, a Kardashian consuming people, we will never know what it is to be more. I thoroughly enjoy you and your resting “what the f*ck?” face.
Take as long as you need, but once you do, "Wings and 10K" are 1 long song... You know how they love their intros, well, "Wings" is an epic intro to "10,000 Days" I believe they wanted to have something that they could do on tour because performing the whole song, nearly every night, would be "torture", and probably impossible to pull off at the time Now, with their skills, they could probably do it as a whole, but it's probably really hard for Maynard to get through it... Their new album shows that they're capable of doing some pretty long songs, and I'm sure they're a challenge for even them...but damn, their endurance... Gorgio was right: "It's Aliens"
Don't judge me....Sometimes I want to grab your face and kiss you to shut you up. I think that's a compliment, but you don't need to tread lightly or feel like apologizing. Don't let anyone ever make you feel that way. It's Tool, and if you are listening then you are part of the Tool family so don't be hard on yourself! Thank you and keep it up! BTW, when you smile you are beautiful:_)
Concerning your views on not listening to Wings For Marie / 10,000 Days songs yet, all good. They are amongst my fav ever, but are def emotional. Find it ironic that the first song on this album is Vicarious (about the voyeuristic nature of humans), and then include two songs where he opens his mind/heart up on something as incredibly personal as the death of his mother for every listener to "watch" from the safety of their own space. After the album was released, he was offended by music critics that would break down things that personal into the most impersonal of talking points. Said he'd never expose himself that way again. Perhaps you have a personal reason for not wanting to listen to those yet. If so, you have my empathy and understanding. However, when the time feels right, perhaps they will help bring you feelings of acceptance and closure in a way similar to how they seem to have done for others. And if such a thing isn't something you want others to see, then don't. Do it your way and on your terms :)
As a guitarist who knows both lateralus and vicarious, I have to say that Vicarious is a lot more challenging and complex, love both of them equally though!
Intro length i guess plays into the topic of the song. I love Jambi, hooker with a penis, part of me, the pot etc for getting straight into the main tempo. But the long intro's and build of Lateralus, invincible, Descending, Pushit etc are awesome too. Thanks for doing another Tool review.
It depends. I'm not sure if You do Opeth reactions, but one of my favourite Opeth songs is "The Moor" and it does have a long intro. But I also really love other songs of theirs that are straight into it, like "Demon of the Fall".
I love the written commentary, because I also find it hilarious. Here I am jamming like crazy and you're sitting perfectly still, analyzing it? In any case I'm glad you like it, but I literally cannot sit still while listening to it lmao
If you want angry/regular but improved maynard, listen to 7empest off their newest album.🤙🏼 it won an grammy for best metal performance in 2020 I think🤘
@@draimantsosie4585 haha all good homie! Just wouldnt want you using it in a convo not knowing in the future 🤘 who knows, maybe they WILL win an emmy one day lmao
Wings pt1 and 2 is my favorite tool song, but this is my favorite for casual listening. The former is something you really need to sit down and appreciate when hearing it
I used to be a technical instructor and writer. 3 ways that people learn; read then do, just go for it and learn by mistake and watch someone else do it and learn, vicarious. How did cavemen teach their young to hunt? Watch from a safe distance and learn what works. I think that is what this song is about, watching from a safe distance and understand what works and what doesn't work in many different scenarios. How often do we watch something on the screen and say to ourselves and others how we would have done it different and better?
Just saying… you don’t really need to explain that “it might not look like you like it but you really enjoy it”. You’re just taking it all in on a first time listen and there’s so much to take in. We totally get it!
I'm super jealous that I can't hear this song for the first time ever again. I was there when it was released as a downloadable single before the album itself, and I must have listened to it about 20 times in a row that night. I was absolutely blown away!
I completely understand about Wings for Marie. I LOVE all the songs about his mother, but I just cannot listen without knowing I have plenty of time to myself, a whole box of tissues and am ready to...just really be in my feelings and be extremely sad. Anyway, I checked out your store. I think I need an Angry Maynard shirt. Hopefully, that will happen tomorrow. I would also love a sticker. Any idea when those will be available?
One more song closer to Rosetta Stoned (and “Lost Keys” intro). It’s unavoidable… 👽
Still don't think she's ready *just* yet. It's one of my favourite tracks but let's be honest, Rosetta is fricking weird 😂.
She's on Her way...
@@Andy-nl8uq its GREAT
"Somniferous almond eyes don't even know what that means, just remember to write it down"
Rosetta Stoned is going to be such an entertaining reaction!!!
Lauren: "Do you prefer the (ease into the song) or the (get right to it)"
Tool fans regarding Tool songs : Yes!
The more you listen to Tool the better n intensifier it gets n it goes on for years that way ♾

The "school bell" sound is Danny Carey precisely playing a cymbal

Vicarious is my clear favorite, although The Grudge is also fantastic, as is all Tool-tunes. But to me, clearly Vicarious. Perhaps both lyrics and music plays a part in this.
10,000 days is so under rated. One of their best albums in my opinion
Tool is great. Period. ✌🤘
Credulous at best, your desire to believe in angels in the hearts of men.

There are no bad Tool songs.

If you like their longer stuff and you like Maynard's low notes, you might want to try Wings for Marie/10,000 Days. But bring tissues. It's heartbreaking.
Ah, at the end you say you're avoiding Wings/10K Days for your emotional well-being. I completely understand.
To me these lyrics are very sardonic and meant to be read between the lines, otherwise they seem very at odds with a lot of the messages that Tool seems to endorse. Even talking about belief in angels being silly and then on the title track his mom is an angel 😀
I’m not sure you’ve heard LOW low Maynard. Check out “Drunk with Power” by Puscifer for very low Maynard.
Come to think of it, and after listening to them again, I think Indigo Children (also Puscifer) would be even better.
Let’s go Brandon!!
You’re such a little cutie……
Tool is cool but I don't identify as part of the "tool army"
I don't either. I'm indefinitely stuck in boot camp. That's ok. :)
This song remains my most listened to Tool song post-video. And I always listen to the last part twice. :) Enjoy your weekend & thanks for watching!
So Effin Good!!!! Thank you so much for being you and doing these Tool reactions.....There is no band like Tool!!! You're awesome!
This just solidifies the fact that you need to go back and listen to early Tool. Don't listen to the current Tool poll, which ended up almost perfectly in reverse order of what you'd be into. Seriously...check out the early stuff and evolve into the later work.
Either way, have a great day!
Put 7empest(Tempest) on your next song, the bass in that song is booming🤘
Fantastic to hear
Was at the top of my list for weeks.

10,000 Days is one of the best albums to listen to from start to finish. The journey is epic... :)
In wonderful ways, I live vicariously through your first time hearing these Tool songs that mean so much to me. And, that brings me great joy. I thank you. :)
Wings for Marie and 10,000 days must be played together. The same way that parabol and parabola must be played in succession.
DMT likes to smoke Tool.
borrowed comment.
For low low Maynard give “Momma said” from Puscifer a try.
Vicarious is one of my favorites. The song itself, by examination, is much different than most Tool songs, in a few ways. It's Maynard examining life from a different angle, to each all a simple lesson. The music is, as always, exceptional. It's easy for this song to play because it's such an evil, almost taboo subject, so that plays right into the evil sounds. Unlike other Tool songs where we have time to just take into the moment, Vicarious is a rip roaring adventure. In that way it's a bit like 'Tick and Leeches', but in a different way.

Wings pt1 and 2 is my favorite tool song, but this is my favorite for casual listening. The former is something you really need to sit down and appreciate when hearing it
Hands down my favorite Tool song. This one is just so visceral and honest and psychologically charged.
Such a unique, talented and progressive band on many levels. Tool is more of an experience than a band. There can be only one. Spiral Out...
Welcome to humanity via Maynard which changed my life.
I used to be a technical instructor and writer. 3 ways that people learn; read then do, just go for it and learn by mistake and watch someone else do it and learn, vicarious. How did cavemen teach their young to hunt? Watch from a safe distance and learn what works. I think that is what this song is about, watching from a safe distance and understand what works and what doesn't work in many different scenarios. How often do we watch something on the screen and say to ourselves and others how we would have done it different and better?
Actually watched this review twice now I enjoyed it so much. Good work private Lauren on to the next one.
Just saying… you don’t really need to explain that “it might not look like you like it but you really enjoy it”. You’re just taking it all in on a first time listen and there’s so much to take in. We totally get it!
Check out slipknot the blister exists live big day out the intro with corey was destructive
You have to listen to, "Wings for Marie" Pt 1 and Pt 2....
its my favorite on the album as well, great reaction! and glad to see another video from you!
Tool, long or short, doesn't matter, I look forward to your pauses
I'm super jealous that I can't hear this song for the first time ever again. I was there when it was released as a downloadable single before the album itself, and I must have listened to it about 20 times in a row that night. I was absolutely blown away!
Great reaction!! Need to do a song off the Undertow album
I think this has to be my favorite guitar work by Adam it just hits hard on this song
Vicarious is an incredible song..🔨army
I completely understand about Wings for Marie. I LOVE all the songs about his mother, but I just cannot listen without knowing I have plenty of time to myself, a whole box of tissues and am ready to...just really be in my feelings and be extremely sad. Anyway, I checked out your store. I think I need an Angry Maynard shirt. Hopefully, that will happen tomorrow. I would also love a sticker. Any idea when those will be available?
Not sure about the stickers. Not anytime soon, to be honest.
Talk about them lyrics. Don't let em shut you out lol
TOOL Army wants Sweat.
