Thank you for watching the video, It means a lot to me . I will leave this pinned message here to REMIND everyone that i do not have TELEGRAM and there is no GIVEAWAY. Those you see are bot scams . Keep yourself safe and know that I would not ask for your info. ❤ ❤
I like it when you dance to the music! Also, please check out the Band "The Warning" consisting of (3) sisters from Mexico, they rock! th-cam.com/video/lPLM7z-av7g/w-d-xo.htmlsi=2HZvzA3FC_aPP58o
You nailed it, my man. It's super theoretical and would take at least, probably thousands of generations to come to fruition, but it's possible. This song takes into account all of the bipedal humanoid species which have existed until now and looks at what may become. JMK has insight which only the brightest of us posess. I also hear he makes some wicked wine.
no other drummer like Danny Carey I think I've always felt like this was THE quintessential TOOL song of all time - every time I think of Tool this is the sound that runs through my head 🙏🏼
The song addresses evolving, changing, metamorphosis... People can interpret the lyrics and how they fit their lives. For me, I was at a pivotal point in my life when this was released. Hit me pretty hard and has always been my favorite Tool song ❤
Your sins have been forgiven 😁Now go listen to the album Aenima that this song is from. The entire album has this same dark smoky grungy quality to it and some recurring elements that you hear in this song spread out across the rest of the album. Worth listening to from start to finish, the whole thing is an epic journey. Then listen to Lateralus, their next album, which is a very different production quality to it... much crisper and clearer, different aesthetic and lyrical content, but just as much of an epic journey. Both masterpiece albums.
Just a Amazing song. TOOL has so many monster hits,this being one of their most popular. The O'Keffe children's music school version of this is Amazing as well.
Yes Bisscute! You need to do this next, these kids will blow you away on 46 & 2. Here is the correct link: @BisscuteReacts th-cam.com/video/mYKLvYGqaC0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=bHCllHRUtrFsSh8D

There is a version of this song in TH-cam somewhere that has not only the lyrics, but also an explanation of the lyrics as the song progresses...Believe me, your mind hasn't come close to being blown away by this song until you understand the depths of its meaning. IN FACT...you should find that video and react to this song again...I would love to see just how far your jaw drops during that!
This is such a great Tool song because it highlights some of their more esoteric qualities and incredible musicianship while still being very accessible.
This song refers to concepts of Jungian psychology, the Shadow-Self. A song about evolving yourself, adding 2 chromosomes. 46 + 2. Tool is ahead of their time.
It depends on where you add the 2. We are 44 and 2.. 44 autonomes plus 2 chromosomes. Adding 2 chromosomes would result in 44 and 4, which is an XXYY situation that has some pretty bad side effects. Look it up, its not pretty. Adding 2 to the autonomes is much different... which is why the song is 46 and 2(evolution), not 44 and 4(devolution).
The funny thing is we lost 2 Chromosomes when we evolved to the Genus Homo. I'm not sure adding 2 or have the 2 that failed to split to split again would actually be a benefit to mankind
@@skildude The 46&2 chromosomes part of the song comes from an esoterico-pseudoscientific theory/prophecy that already revealed itself to be untrue and based on nothing real (made by Drunvalo Melchizedec) but I think they used it for the "evolving" theme of the song to make it more cryptic on purpose. The shadow work part of it is indeed based on Jung's works and permeates all the song without being explicit though and in my mind is the real message. Overall evolving through shadow work.
Just an FYI, the title refers to a biological theory of human evolution. We have 44 autosomes and two sex chromosomes in our DNA. There is a theory that this will increase to 46 and 2 as we evolve. Hence the title :)
Having been to a number of their concerts, the crowd that shows up is a diverse scattering of humanity. TOOL's music speaks to something deeper within common in most people even without the lyrics. I'm happy to see you enjoyed this song so thoroughly! 🤙
You should do a video on "Green Jellÿ - Three Little Pigs" (also sometimes called Green Jellö before they had to change their name)! Yes, it's a metal version of Three Little Pigs, it has a claymation video, and it's even more awesome than it sounds! It was one of the most popular videos on MTV back in the day. Many of Green Jellÿ's members are from Tool! Their Three Little Pigs music video features Maynard James Keenan (Tool), Pauly Shore (the comedian/actor) and Les Claypool (Primus) voicing the Three Little Pigs, and Danny Carey (Tool) is on the drums. The song is co-written by Mark Levinthal whose work has been on the movies Ted 2, Valley Girl, etc. Thanks for making these videos, It's great to have this way of listening to music with you without the risk of you sucking my blood!!
The singer, Maynard, also has some great work with his other project "A Perfect Circle". I would recommend checking out some of that as well. As always Bisscute, your reactions are so fun to watch unfold. Thank you!
This was the first album that got me into tool back in the 90s. Went a few years without listening to it, and now diving back through it all. Feels like the first time again. Nice reaction!
There are a few organizations that support music education for kids, a la School of Rock. One is O'Keefe Music Foundation. You should look up their cover of this tune. Those kids do an amazing job on this one.
Another incredible song off this album is "Eulogy". Also, Maynard intentionally puts his lyrics in many parts to let the music stand front in many of their songs. Even in a lot of their live concerts he would kind of go in the shadows while the band stood front.
This is my favorite Tool song, this or Eulogy. Thanks for listening to them! Love the content. This is my favorite album of theirs. I love that it's mixed so untraditionally. Like the vocals being quite low in this in the verses, more as an instrument.
They just closed with this in Milwaukee a week ago, so good. Rumor is that they are headed to Europe next year. If so, you must go, it’s an experience. Have you done Fear Inoculum yet? It’s the title track off their latest and it’s amazing.
I love that 7/8 timing on the drum while the guitars play in 4/4 timing and they come together nicely another great song from this same album is Ænema the song is about his hatred of Los Angeles very powerful lyrics and great music
There is also 5/8 in this and most of it is just 4:4. Playing around with 4:4 with pauses retardants can make it seem like a a different time signature. The fills at the end of verses are cool for a second but it’s mostly 4:4. I can metronome and drum this 4:4 except for the fills and go right back to 4:4.
I cannot imagine hearing this song for the first time just 7 days again. This and many others live rent free in my head for years. Whether its Tool or Puscifer I'm listening to, Maynard, the music, the lyrics are amazing.
I’ve been a tool fan since I was a child when they were a garage band. It has been an honor to have been along for the ride over the years. No other band has changed so many lives. And I absolutely love people, finding their music and message for themselves over the years!❤
You HAVE TO react to the O’Keefe Music Foundation version of this immediately and compare the two. The lyrics are clearer and the talent shown by the kids is impressive. Probably best to Google the meaning of the song to fully understand it. GREAT CHOICE 👌
I’ve watched the cover a hundred times more than the original for sure. Those kids killed it at the time. You definitely should follow this up with the O’Keefe Music Foundation’s cover for sure!
Still my favourite Tool song. A perfectly created and crafted work, very difficult to separate the individual instruments because it’s all so beautifully welded together. The vocals were almost feral. A big shout out , as always, to Dan Carey… the most animated drummer on the planet. Your reactions were in synch to the music to the point that it felt like you were a puppet on a string 🙌🙌🙌
Have a Huge fan of tool since I first heard them (1993) seen them play a few times in concerts. Never a disappointment if you ever have the opportunity to see them. Absolutely a must you see them
You have to react to the O'Keefs Music cover of this song...The y are insanely talented kids who cover songs...vocals and instruments...it is beyond amazing!!!!!!!!!
One of my greatest musical regrets was not listening to TOOL when these albums were fresh and they were regularly touring in my area. I don't know how I skipped them for as long as I did.
I’m 44 I have been listening tool since their inception. It’s great you are able to enjoy. This band is all about theatrics, the quiet vocals are a build up all part of the experience
Tool's instrumentation is just amazing and with a great voice, for me this is alternative metal, this is what makes it aternative, one minute it's quiet, the next all hell breaks loose! So many twist and turns, very very clever. This is the best form of metal, you just don't whats round the corner, and your reaction when you hear something your not expecting is priceless, great reaction as usual 👍
You are not alone. Tool is and has been one of my faves since the early 90's and this song has been argued "THE BEST" tool song out there. I say again ARGUED....So many DAMN GOOD songs by this band. Not to mention A perfect circle(Band). But the layers of this song are, even 20 years later, and I still get impressed by them. The guys will suggest more. I aim towards off of their Sober album personally. Start from the beginning. Hehhhhhh
If you want to hear what I consider peak emotion from Tool, I highly recommend 10,000 Days. Definitely would need the lyrics up, it's such an amazing song
No exaggeration as great as this song is musically which is absolutely phenomenal but those lyrics are highly inspirational. This is the song I show anyone who has never listened to Tool.
This (along with Stinkfist) absolutely blew people away; mainstream radio had never played anything like it before. The whole instrumental experience was at another level. We native English speakers also had that "wait, what tf did he say?" experience, which was compounded by not really having internet access with answers readily available. Add in Maynard's disdain for interviews and refusing to give straight clear answers to questions, instead saying 'what does it mean to you?', as well as lyrics in the album liner not quite matching or listing everything lead to years of IRL debate about Tool lyrics. Before Tool *finally* released Lateralus, Forty Six & 2 was tied (musically) with Ænema for my favorite Tool song. H and Stinkfist are also killers...the whole album is an experience. Lateralus is still my fav album of theirs, but Ænima still holds up well today.
Any time you attend a Tool concert you're pretty much there to see the musical instruments with Danny, Adam and Justin up front, Maynard mainly stays in the back while singing..
Perhaps my favorite part of watching anyone react to a Tool song for the first time is hearing them say "This is my favorite Tool song". I swear it happens 99% of the time 🤣🤘
Watching the expressions come across your face as this song progresses is a real treat! They hit like no one else, this song is absolutely on fire! ❤🔥🔥🤘
This has always been one of my favourite Tool songs! I'm actually going to see Tool live in 2 weeks when they play Toronto, Canada. They are always amazing live! Another really good Tool song is The Grudge.
You need to react to "Kids Cover 46 and 2 by Tool / O'Keefe Music Foundation". A group of kids actually play this incredibly intricate and complex song INCREDIBLY WELL. It's awesome!!!
You can just feel and see the love coming from Biss. I have to laugh a little when I hear songs like this one from this particular album. Especially when she says it's quiet at the beginning. I saw them at Ozzfest in 98 on the first stage. At the same time on the second stage was Motorhead. Needless to say Tool is in my top 5 loudest bands I've ever seen. Even the whispers rattled my bones. I still can't hear this song without remembering what each note felt like.
Tool is unique, they are so talented. bass, drums, the singer has a superb voice. The Pot, Sober, Lateralus, or Wings for Marie and 10,000 days are a must-listen. thank you for your reactions BisSoCute😍💓
There is so much about Tool that I love, ranging from the intensely thoughtful lyrics to the polyrhythmic beats and sounds that underscore the complexity of the music. Humans typically have 46 chromosomes. Maynard is singing about wanting us to evolve beyond where we are, that is why the “46 and 2”
This song is the gateway into self exploration, evolution from the human experience to the infinite energetics that we truly are, the dismantling of the ego in order to ascend to our true being.
Stinkfist is my favorite, it was the blue looking guy link that popped up at the end of the video. Great reaction, love to see the facial expressions during the song instead of when people talk over the music.
Recommend: Kansas. Song is Closet Chronicles. There is a video titled lyrics on the screen for the studio version. Kansas was the first band where I had to get all their albums. 😊😊😊
Hello, lovely lady. I've been a Tool fan for decades and there are so many intricate aspects of this band that a mere post on PB won't do them justice. I would have to write pages to describe them as a band. One thing, Danny Carey, the drummer, has God status. I think you got that. Also, JMK writes the lyrics absent of the music. He writes the lyrics, the band composes the music then they marry them. The same goes for their videos. The videographer makes the videos without ever hearing the song. These little things don't even begin to describe the depth of this band and everything which surrounds them. Tool is undoubtedly, one of the most talented bands to have ever existed. Be well.
Until the newest album Tool never released official lyrics. It didnt matter exactly what was said to me. Just the emotion in the music and the vocals. I filled in the lyrics with what suited me. In that way their music became my own personal Tool. With the vocals higher in the mix you might lose that ambiguity needed to individualize the song(s).
Thank you for watching the video, It means a lot to me .
I will leave this pinned message here to REMIND everyone that i do not have TELEGRAM and there is no GIVEAWAY. Those you see are bot scams . Keep yourself safe and know that I would not ask for your info. ❤ ❤
I think you should listen to this a few times!🌚🌿🌸
Tool is awesome!!!!!❤️
Loudest song,next to Cranberries!
Listen to sublime!!!!!!Push!!!!!
Oh yeah!!( Swim) Opiate!
Live and sounds like the studio.
My favorite BAND!
I like it when you dance to the music! Also, please check out the Band "The Warning" consisting of (3) sisters from Mexico, they rock! th-cam.com/video/lPLM7z-av7g/w-d-xo.htmlsi=2HZvzA3FC_aPP58o
Тебе обязательно нужно послушать Rosetta Stoned (это ДЕЙСТВИТЕЛЬНО лучшая песня TOOL, говорю как фанат группы с многолетним стажем).
‘This is my favourite TOOL song’
Says everyone. For every song.
Yep. To be fair there are so many that could qualify for that title that it is not easy to choose just one lol.
The Pot babbbbyyyyyy.
You've got to listen to the cover done by Kidz of the O'Keefe Foundation.
Was just about to suggest exactly that ... great cover.
That’s actually a perfect description of Tool music, “do you feel that?”, it’s a musical experience of emotions. Welcome to the Tool Army.
1000%
I did chuckle a bit. The 46 and 2 theory is more than math; it's a theoretical future step in our evolution.
Thank you lol you beat me to the punch. I was fixin to get nerdy...
It's Hokum there are plenty of animals with more complex genetics
You nailed it, my man. It's super theoretical and would take at least, probably thousands of generations to come to fruition, but it's possible. This song takes into account all of the bipedal humanoid species which have existed until now and looks at what may become. JMK has insight which only the brightest of us posess. I also hear he makes some wicked wine.
Eric Carl wrote "On the Apex of a Species" did he now?
Everything this band does has a purpose…..the low vocals draw you in and set you up for what’s to come
Correct. Maynard doesn’t wanna be front man but a part of the band.
I believe the "ghost vocals" are there to bring you back a second time and by that then you're hooked.
Well said
your "stankface" is lovely as I would have expected.
no other drummer like Danny Carey
I think I've always felt like this was THE quintessential TOOL song of all time - every time I think of Tool this is the sound that runs through my head 🙏🏼
The song addresses evolving, changing, metamorphosis... People can interpret the lyrics and how they fit their lives. For me, I was at a pivotal point in my life when this was released. Hit me pretty hard and has always been my favorite Tool song ❤
Confession: I never really got into Tool, but hearing this for the first time has really opened my mind to what they're capable of. Very nice
They're awesome. The best introduction songs to Tool are "The Pot", "Right in Two" and "Jambi".
@@Republic3Dbest introduction songs are the pot, sober, and this song
Vicariously is my favorite I highly highly recommend it. Especially the lyric video so you get the message right away
Your sins have been forgiven 😁Now go listen to the album Aenima that this song is from. The entire album has this same dark smoky grungy quality to it and some recurring elements that you hear in this song spread out across the rest of the album.

@Republic3D the best introduction songs are all of the albums, listened to in one sitting each 😂
Just a Amazing song. TOOL has so many monster hits,this being one of their most popular. The O'Keffe children's music school version of this is Amazing as well.
Yeah, when you're having trouble with the words, it's actually easier to understand them when it's a 10 year old girl singing them.
@alexthorpe6583 LOL. Yea it can be indeed.

The singer in the O'Keffe version is Kala Rose, now all grown up and sings with Saving Escape...fantastic voice.
The thing with the favourite Tool song is this. Usullaly it's the one your currently listen to.
Couldn't agree more.

The funny thing is we lost 2 Chromosomes when we evolved to the Genus Homo. I'm not sure adding 2 or have the 2 that failed to split to split again would actually be a benefit to mankind
@@skildude The 46&2 chromosomes part of the song comes from an esoterico-pseudoscientific theory/prophecy that already revealed itself to be untrue and based on nothing real (made by Drunvalo Melchizedec) but I think they used it for the "evolving" theme of the song to make it more cryptic on purpose.
The shadow work part of it is indeed based on Jung's works and permeates all the song without being explicit though and in my mind is the real message.
Overall evolving through shadow work.
My favorite band of all time and I can't see that ever changing. They never stopped putting out awesome sh*t.
Tbf they stopped for a LONG time before Fear Inoculum 😂
Just an FYI, the title refers to a biological theory of human evolution.
We have 44 autosomes and two sex chromosomes in our DNA. There is a theory that this will increase to 46 and 2 as we evolve. Hence the title :)
Tool is one of those bands that require you to read the lyrics while listening. Deep stuff!
Having been to a number of their concerts, the crowd that shows up is a diverse scattering of humanity. TOOL's music speaks to something deeper within common in most people even without the lyrics. I'm happy to see you enjoyed this song so thoroughly! 🤙

You need to watch the Aaron O'Keefe kids cover of this song.
This was the first album that got me into tool back in the 90s. Went a few years without listening to it, and now diving back through it all. Feels like the first time again. Nice reaction!

Those kids knock it out of the park.
Hi Bisscute, yeah let’s go! I love Tool. They have so many time signatures in their songs. Danny Carey is one of the best drummers ever.
Tool is the greatest rock band I'll ever have the pleasure of seeing in my life. I'll gladly die on that hill.
The TOOL rabbit hole runs deep Biz🤘
Another incredible song off this album is "Eulogy". Also, Maynard intentionally puts his lyrics in many parts to let the music stand front in many of their songs. Even in a lot of their live concerts he would kind of go in the shadows while the band stood front.
He thinks of his voice as his instrument. So he tries to position himself so as to keep the focus on the music and not the frontman.
Check out the O'Keffe kids cover, its insane! :))
This is my favorite Tool song, this or Eulogy. Thanks for listening to them! Love the content. This is my favorite album of theirs. I love that it's mixed so untraditionally. Like the vocals being quite low in this in the verses, more as an instrument.
Glad you enjoy it❤️
I watched the video because I said "this is my favorite Tool song", so funny you actually said the same thing in the end. So good.
Yup, my favourite Tool song too!
Check out o’keefe music foundation cover of this song (type in 46&2 kids)… a bunch of kids doing a great cover
They just closed with this in Milwaukee a week ago, so good. Rumor is that they are headed to Europe next year. If so, you must go, it’s an experience. Have you done Fear Inoculum yet? It’s the title track off their latest and it’s amazing.
That drum solo live is insane. I saw em in a small venue that had really good audio about 15 years ago. Still the best show I've been to.
I cannot WAIT for their next album to drop.
Only 9 more years...
🤞
Sorry to be a pessimist but there's no way that'll happen. MAYBE an EP. MAYBE
hardee har har
You have to hear the OKeefe Foundation version. A bunch of kids cover this and they will blow you away
I love that 7/8 timing on the drum while the guitars play in 4/4 timing and they come together nicely another great song from this same album is Ænema the song is about his hatred of Los Angeles very powerful lyrics and great music

There is a lyric video that also goes into what the term "46 & 2 " is referring to. If i can find it, i'll put it in a reply to this comment...
th-cam.com/video/3RUSpSMmqag/w-d-xo.htmlsi=RKjx36Fs1QzzIy1Y
You HAVE TO react to the O’Keefe Music Foundation version of this immediately and compare the two. The lyrics are clearer and the talent shown by the kids is impressive. Probably best to Google the meaning of the song to fully understand it. GREAT CHOICE 👌
It's a good cover, I would also recommend the cover of Right in Two by Yann Phayphet. th-cam.com/video/6E1DkgUNfBc/w-d-xo.html
Couldn't agree more - best cover ever I think - please please review this one from O'Keefe Music Foundation - those kids are AMAZING!
THIS! THIS! THIS!
It's worth a reaction video of its own.
I’ve watched the cover a hundred times more than the original for sure. Those kids killed it at the time. You definitely should follow this up with the O’Keefe Music Foundation’s cover for sure!
My favorite Tool song of all time. so goood.
Still my favourite Tool song. A perfectly created and crafted work, very difficult to separate the individual instruments because it’s all so beautifully welded together.

I've been listening to Tool for almost 30 years and I wish I had just found them to do it again
Check out O'Keefe music schools cover. Frigging kids absolutely kill it.
i second that
I third this......would be a great reaction video. @@nikspeed
You've got to always listen to Tool songs for the first time with lyrics. They are DEEEEEEEP!!!
Next time hopefully ❤️
Haha....your favorite Tool song is ALWAYS whatever one you are listening to at the moment.
Definitely MORE Tool reactions!!!
This Band is a true talent of epic music. They always progress with every album and in a way remind me of Rush with the depth of their music.
You have to react to the O'Keefs Music cover of this song...The y are insanely talented kids who cover songs...vocals and instruments...it is beyond amazing!!!!!!!!!

I know I'm in late, but the O'Keefe Music Foundation kids have a fantastic cover of this song. With a surprising vocalist. Thanks for the reaction!
I am also going to echo and recommend the kids cover of this, truly awesome!
Tool is a journey. This song is pure fire.
If you want to hear what I consider peak emotion from Tool, I highly recommend 10,000 Days. Definitely would need the lyrics up, it's such an amazing song
No exaggeration as great as this song is musically which is absolutely phenomenal but those lyrics are highly inspirational. This is the song I show anyone who has never listened to Tool.
This (along with Stinkfist) absolutely blew people away; mainstream radio had never played anything like it before. The whole instrumental experience was at another level.

The bongos…”took da took took took” lol. Omgosh I this beautiful person

This has always been one of my favourite Tool songs! I'm actually going to see Tool live in 2 weeks when they play Toronto, Canada. They are always amazing live! Another really good Tool song is The Grudge.
Their very best song in my eyes. Powerful message, powerful meaning.
Mechanical and visceral. Industrial and natural. Mathematical and musical. Hypnotic and dramatic.
You need to react to "Kids Cover 46 and 2 by Tool / O'Keefe Music Foundation". A group of kids actually play this incredibly intricate and complex song INCREDIBLY WELL. It's awesome!!!
Your expressions are awesome. I totally feel that. That "Nice!" moment at 4:30 for example when the beat drops is just spot-on!
You can just feel and see the love coming from Biss.
I have to laugh a little when I hear songs like this one from this particular album. Especially when she says it's quiet at the beginning. I saw them at Ozzfest in 98 on the first stage. At the same time on the second stage was Motorhead. Needless to say Tool is in my top 5 loudest bands I've ever seen. Even the whispers rattled my bones. I still can't hear this song without remembering what each note felt like.
Just saw Tool live last week! My favorite band! It was an awesome show!
Every Tool song is an adventure
Tool is unique, they are so talented. bass, drums, the singer has a superb voice. The Pot, Sober, Lateralus, or Wings for Marie and 10,000 days are a must-listen. thank you for your reactions BisSoCute😍💓
Noty only unic but no aspect is left to chance , all is planned to the smalest detail and exceuted accordingly
Make sure to have tissues ready for Wings for Marie/10,000 Days
Maynard refuses to overshadow the genuis instrumentalists in ths band with his vocals. Speaks to his character.
The subtle lyrics are deliberate.
Good Girl.....Dobrý Rano....best band and best adventure no question, ....
Interesting band..hypnotic song, talented musicians
A LOT of talent in this band.
There is so much about Tool that I love, ranging from the intensely thoughtful lyrics to the polyrhythmic beats and sounds that underscore the complexity of the music. Humans typically have 46 chromosomes. Maynard is singing about wanting us to evolve beyond where we are, that is why the “46 and 2”
This song is the gateway into self exploration, evolution from the human experience to the infinite energetics that we truly are, the dismantling of the ego in order to ascend to our true being.
Tool, The Pot is my all time fav but because that song rhymed with a lot that was going on in my life. 😊
Love The Pot!
The vocals are quiet at the beginning on purpose they do it in a few songs that's just what tool does
A fantastic composition. The very distant vocals eventually coming to the front is a cool technique that makes the song so much better.
Well said ❤️
Adam Jones...the greatest guitarist you've probably never heard of. My hero!
You advanced to the manual of consciousness. This card is a portal of light. Greetings from Chile🎼🎶🎧🎸🎸🎸🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🤘🏻🔛
Stinkfist is my favorite, it was the blue looking guy link that popped up at the end of the video. Great reaction, love to see the facial expressions during the song instead of when people talk over the music.
Recommend: Kansas. Song is Closet Chronicles. There is a video titled lyrics on the screen for the studio version. Kansas was the first band where I had to get all their albums. 😊😊😊
Awesome reaction, awesome song. I would recommend 7emptest, as it is the ultimate journey
Hello, lovely lady. I've been a Tool fan for decades and there are so many intricate aspects of this band that a mere post on PB won't do them justice. I would have to write pages to describe them as a band. One thing, Danny Carey, the drummer, has God status. I think you got that. Also, JMK writes the lyrics absent of the music. He writes the lyrics, the band composes the music then they marry them. The same goes for their videos. The videographer makes the videos without ever hearing the song. These little things don't even begin to describe the depth of this band and everything which surrounds them. Tool is undoubtedly, one of the most talented bands to have ever existed. Be well.
Wait until you truly understand what he’s singing about 🤯 this band is seriously a genius
I just saw Tool last week in Dallas 🤯 amazing
The smile says it all!!
Until the newest album Tool never released official lyrics. It didnt matter exactly what was said to me. Just the emotion in the music and the vocals. I filled in the lyrics with what suited me. In that way their music became my own personal Tool. With the vocals higher in the mix you might lose that ambiguity needed to individualize the song(s).
“Do you feel that?!” Great vid!
Lyrics are important with every Tool song!!!!
If you want to see more of the drummer, I highly recommend watching Danny Carey | "Pneuma" by Tool (LIve in Concert).
Powerful one for sure.
Yes yes yes! more Tool please! They are phenomenal in every way.
Such an amazing song! Tool is an experience. You should check out the songs "Vicarious", "Schism" or "Aenema" next
