BTW A perfect circle is a SUPERGROUP, conformed by Billy Howerdale Lead guitar and vocals, David Iha From Smashing Pumpkins, Maynard from Tool. and both the bassist and drummer play in Puscifer. Billy Howerdale used to be Adam Jone´s guitar engineer.
I appreciate your insight on the harmonies. I think everything a perfect circle does is perfect. It’s hard to name a favorite, but I guess it would be 3 libras
Skullz, I've been following your song by song Tool Journey and loving it! I've steered away from Maynard's other projects, figuring I'd get to them once I wrapped my head around the Tool Discography. I gave in to temptation to watch your reaction to this song, and then linked over to 3 Libras from another's posted link. I loved Orestes and your reaction to it- you do a nice job singing those vocal sections! 3 Libras was also beautiful. The feel is very different than that of Tool, but great in it's own way. It gave me an even greater appreciation for Maynard's vocal talent. He is truly amazing. I'm no singer myself, but when I try to sing some of the simpler sounding sections of Tool songs, I just make it sound silly, if not plain pitiful. I guess simple is not always easy. Keep up the good work Bro!
Appreciate it! Yeah I'd love to see Maynard sing 3 Libras live at some point so I might do a reaction to it that way if there's a good video of it 💯 Cheers!
Great reaction bud, love your input. Also ,highly recommend Emotive and Amotion. Emotive is cover songs from other artists and Amotion is remixes of APC songs , that's a really good one as well. Eat the elephant is very underrated, I find my self listening to that one alot to ease my mind or just wind down.
Cool! Yeah I noticed that fans tend to not like when rock bands come down and are more chill which is something I hear Eat the Elephant does. Personally I enjoy that kind of thing and it's kind of inevitable as musicians get older. Appreciate the comment 🙏
This entire concert is fucking insane… if you do more APC, just go ahead a pull it from this show. The Package and The Noose will blow your fuckin socks off.
I love this! And your reaction makes it that much better. Pretty sure that's Josh freese on the drums, he is a beast! Probably my second favorite drummer next to Danny of course! He toured with a perfect circle and nin during this time period.
I watch a lot of reactions, mostly Maynard-oriented. Tool. APC. Puscifer. Anyway, this is a great one dude - nice job. Didn’t run on too long, didn’t interrupt too much, but layered in some useful nuggets. Nice job.
I've always pictured the lyrics "give me one more medicated peaceful moment" as coming from his mother. It seems like Maynard is saying that he can hear his mother scream that as he is confronting her. He has major issues with his mom and she doesn't want to address them. There is a lot of my own life experience in this interpretation, so it could just be me.
I never thought of it that way. Maynard does switch perspectives in songs often (from what I've heard anyways). It makes sense and hey, there's room for more than one interpretation. That's what makes his lyrics so good 💯 Appreciate the comment!
When you finish going through the Tool albums, will you be going through the A Perfect Circle? And then eventually moving on to Puscifer. Assuming you know Maynard is the lead vocalist for each band. 🤔🤷♂️
Have you thought about the connection between Orestes and Maynard? I've contemplated it often and while their motivations were different, Maynard MUST have been torn. The quality of life of someone paralyzed for nearly 30 years couldn't have been anything but excruciating. It doesn't remain static, every- thing deteriorates, including internal organs. I can't imagine Maynard not at least contemplating euthanasia probably daily, or nightly. We are all subject to psychological self-flagellation, yet Maynard's must've been extreme.
I have made that connection. I just don't know much about his situation so I didn't want to get into it in the reaction. I think anyone who's had to watch a loved one suffer has thought about it though. There are worse things than death 😕
@@Skullzrapper, we have greater life-spans by a considerable margin these days, yet those extra years of longevity don't equate to joyous times. Many people hang on merely because their loved ones struggle to say goodbye. Really enjoyed your reaction! Musically, that live version of "Orestes" is amongst the most beautiful and poignant I have heard. I am amazed at the details, the nuance that Maynard brings that goes beyond most mortals. It's astounding!
@@Skullzrapper I tried to give you ample time. Damn near a year. If you haven't already on your own check out the live versions of "The Outsider" and "Judith", I believe they're both from the Tonight Show. What the hell. Let me give them to you. Don't have to share um with us, just give yourself this treat. th-cam.com/video/uXlKkzjkheg/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/c7jUFbeKyXw/w-d-xo.html "Judith" is actually from Conan. What's interesting beyond the extraordinary quality, is Maynard's alien, insectlike appearance. His actual eyeballs appear to be black, all black.
![PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE 🙌 TOOL - THE PATIENT [REACTION!]](/img/n.gif)
Maynard is like King Midas; everything he touches turns to GOLD!
The live version of Passive... From this same concert is incredible.... That second vocalist (Billy Howerdel) is amazing near the end of it
Yaaaasss
The head-sway says it all. 👍
Stone and Echo is absolutely mindblowing.
By and down from this same concert!!!
Red Rocks.. best venue ever. In Colorado built into a mountain.. a natural amphitheater.. I was there. I live 25 min away and it’s amazing!!!
Billy Howerdel is responsible both for those beautiful vocal harmonies AND those tremendous melodic guitar solos.
One of the most amazing live performances ever..the whole show is absolutely timeless!!
Loved your reaction homie! That was a dope performance! Also, good vocals 🤟😎
They're awesome musicians! Thanks bro!🤘
This is one of my favorite live performances
I also consider this to be not only one of my favorite Maynard songs but one of my favorite songs period.
What’s even more impressive is he was sick ( had a cold if I remember) when he did this concert…. One of the Greats !
I was at this show. Red rocks! One I will never forget. My fav song from the show!
....also here for more TOOL!!
I'll definitely have more soon!
This song is beautiful. It's on my sleep music playlist
Ps it's Billy howerdel. He was a guitar tech for tool
I think the lead on this song has so much feeling and follows the intent of the song for sure. Great react by the way and you got a great voice!
Oh shit this is Red Rocks! I would have killed to see them, TOOL or even Puscifer there... Maybe someday they will be back
Been subscribed for a few days, glad to come across this gem
Outstanding performance absolutely amazing loved your fabulous reaction you are so awesome much love and God bless always x
Thanks Wendy ❤🤘
@@Skullzrapper Always such a pleasure x

3 Libras is an amazing song! ❤
Here for it! 🔥🔥🔥
🤘🤘🤘
Maynard is a fucking legend in every way.
With you on this one, this is one of my fave songs. Great analysis, thanks!
Appreciate it Sara! 🤘

And also you should check out 3 libras and sleeping beauty acoustic they are incredible! I believe the album title is "deep cuts!"
Damn dude, didn’t know you could sing! Great voice!
Appreciate it! 🤘
Ahhhh. My fav song by APC too. #TOOL #APC #HOG
3 libras live (Jay Leno show)
I love this! And your reaction makes it that much better. Pretty sure that's Josh freese on the drums, he is a beast! Probably my second favorite drummer next to Danny of course! He toured with a perfect circle and nin during this time period.
Thanks man! Much love!
Damn…. You’re a thoughtful dude.
Appreciate it bro 🔥
You should really check out By and Down from this show. Mind-blowing
Desillusioned bye them is awesome
Have you heard 'The Noose' (DVD live)?
I watch a lot of reactions, mostly Maynard-oriented. Tool. APC. Puscifer. Anyway, this is a great one dude - nice job. Didn’t run on too long, didn’t interrupt too much, but layered in some useful nuggets. Nice job.
Appreciate that my dude! Hope you had a good weekend 🤘
Damn you have a very good voice yourself. I love this song it's haunting and beautiful simultaneously.
One of my favs of all time!!! And thanks for the compliement 🤘
Do yourself a favor, look up Josh Freese ... one of the most prolific drummers of the last 25 years.

👍👍👍👍
I named my son after this song. 😅
🤝🙏🧘♂️
My favourite song from them. Especially this version. Billy’s backing vocals are awesome!…
They're so good! 🔥🔥🔥
@@Skullzrapper Check out Puscifer, Maynards other band 😁…They are amazing!…Drummer & bassist from APC are in the band also.
👍🤘👍🤘
When you finish going through the Tool albums, will you be going through the A Perfect Circle? And then eventually moving on to Puscifer. Assuming you know Maynard is the lead vocalist for each band. 🤔🤷♂️
Yeah i know, never heard of Puscifer till a few months ago. Havent heard anything by them so most likely yes, to answer your question! 💯🤘
this is red rocks live

"Judith" is actually from Conan. What's interesting beyond the extraordinary quality, is Maynard's alien, insectlike appearance. His actual eyeballs appear to be black, all black.
"gravity"
He is using Orestes story to compare to him having to take his dying mother off life support.
that knock off Eminem was so whack.
Agamennone! Oreste è il figlio di Agamennone! Come fai a non saperlo pronunciare? Non hai studiato l'antica Grecia a scuola?
