considering all the shit thats coming out about LA celebrities acting like animals I think allot of the normal folks who ended up brushing up against that world hated it.
After you have heard Prison S3x, this is the list you need to understand Maynard and his relationship with his mother and growth over time. 1. jimmy 2. Judith - A Perfect Circle 3. Orestes - A Perfect Circle 4. 10,000 Days 5. Wings for Marie
Absolutely, in terms of Maynard's relationship with his mother and Christianity. I would include "Talk, Talk" with that list of songs. Anyone who doesn't cry to "10,000 Days/Wings for Marie" either isn't listening or doesn't have a soul. The love and anguish on those two songs is just so heavy.
The message I took away, as a teen, was that this was a message that in fact the world was a mess, that others recognized it, but that there was hope even through the anger.
@@patchworkmusic Of course, it was really only directed specifically at SoCal/LA, and he was "praying" for the San Andreas fault-line to let loose and dump the whole of southern California into the Pacific Ocean and flush it all away. Just a matter of time. 😂 But for everyone else on Earth that loves this, yep. The sentiments are kinda universally applicable. As I interpreted it, the only "hope" expressed was the hope that a better Phoenix would rise from the ashes - but first it all has to, you know, burn... 😔
@@cameronnewman9362 I disagree. This song is all about hopes and dreams. "Some say we'll see armageddon soon Certainly HOPE we will" and then: I'm praying for rain I'm praying for tidal waves I wanna watch it all give way I want to see it go right in and down Do you see it now?
There is no sound like TOOL, there is no message like TOOL has. TOOL is a perfect band, and the music they release is the best music that has ever been! From their beginning to now.🌿🌸
Most of the Aenema album is about psychology. It has a lot to do with confronting the things in life that obstruct growth and transcending it. Check out H, Jimmy, Pushit and Third Eye
If you really want to understand Maynard James Keenan you need to react to some of his more personal songs. It will break your heart, but you should absolutely react to first to Judith, by another of Maynard's projects A Perfect Circle and then Wings for Marie / 10,000 Days by Tool (if that's too long, just 10,000 days). There is context you'll need for both (like that Judith is Maynard's mom), but the growth demonstrated between the two songs that are separated by both time and tragedy showcase two very different ways of dealing with a personal grief that is very relatable to a lot of people.
The Judith journey. Jimmie, then A Perfect Circle's Judith. Next.. The Patient With A Perfect Circle's Orestes following that. Finish with Wings for Marie and 10,000 days. They all give insight to MJK's mental growth in dealing with his mothers faith, sickness and ultimate passing. All four are amazing songs by themselves. Once connected they are life changing.
I never got that line. What's between the lines that isn't in plain sight in the text already? What am I missing? The song is clearly about hopes and dreams right? "I'm praying for rain I'm praying for tidal waves" Unfortunately the song doesn't have any call to action so it's a little too "unicorns and rainbows", but I appreciate his understanding of the situation at least. What am I missing?
This entire album was dedicated to memory of Bill Hicks. Bill Hicks was also the inspiration for the song Eulogy (Track #2 and my favorite) from this album. Hicks was decades ahead of his time.
To fully get the Tool experience you have to listen to Rosetta Stoned. It’s unlike anything you have heard but it grows on you until it will make your top 5 Tool songs of all time.
My son was born in 97. His entire young life, when he would struggle with anything, I would say “learn to swim”. Even when he entered college, was struggling with work, school, life balance and he would ask my advice, it was always, learn to swim. Happy to say he is a well adjusted young man, managing life in a great way. He did learn.
I was lucky enough to see one of Bill Hicks' final performances, the guy was incredible. I can only imagine what he would have to say about the state of things today! I saw Tool (on their Opiate tour) open for the Rollins Band, then again on their tour for Undertow. They had grown an unbelievable amount as a band in that time - completely blew my mind...
Newly subbed here, been loving the Tool interpretations, peeling back and revealing new layers to songs I’ve known for years. For 100K subs, you should give us a video tour of your place. I see so many comments about your desk and your art on the wall. Give us a (selective) view into you and what makes home your happy place. No matter what you do, never stop dancing. Thank you for everything!
And I love how you pick up on a deeper, more introspective level of the band than most people/reactors. What makes Tool so unique and brilliant is not only their amazing musicianship and writing but also the deeper meanings of their subject matter and what they want to convey- not only many levels to their musical composition but also to their message.
If you're interested in more like this Noe's ark / flood thematic, there is two another songs: Pantera - Floods (my favorite from this thematic and probably my favorite Pantera song because of the solos) Five Finger Death Punch - Wash It All Away
So many songs that you need to do to understand TOOL. Here are just a few... The Patient, Pushit, H, Jimmy, Wings for Marie + 10000 Days, Right in Two, and the holy trinity Disposition, Reflection, Triad. I love your reactions, keep em coming!
This is a great list! I would add Undertow & Eulogy 👍🏼 Also I would add a few Perfect Circle staples... The Hollow, Rose, judith, and 3 Libras Had to add Flood as well. To truly go through Tool evolve you have to start at the beginning. 😉
I’d love to hear you react to “Invincible” from their last album. It gives more perspective on Tool’s journey over the years and how aging catches up with all of us. Also, if it makes you feel any better, Taylor, Maynard has many tattoos. 😋
I love you and your take on every aspect of the deep personal interpritation of music! Epic and stallar! lovely lady with an insite that opens up our spirirt to the enevitable!
She just put into words what I've been trying to express to people after everyone in my adoptive family passed away. I lost my mom, my dad, and my brother all in a span of 3 years, to either old age or cancer. I lived an abused life growing up, and it wasn't until I lost them that I realized how much I had been sinking. Losing them was me learning to swim, as Tool put it, and as the therapist repeated. Losing my mom, my dad, and then my brother was the worst outcome, and yet it all had a cleansing effect on me. They were my family, and I miss them dearly, but they were also very abusive and the only one I cried for was my dad. Since they've been gone, I've felt like I'm truly alive.
It doesn't matter how many times I listen to this song, when he gets to the " 'Cause I'm praying for rain.." part, that's when the tears start to flow for me...there's just something so unconsciously emotional in this song for me, all of the tension and anger and rage is just released in this cathartic tidal wave of joy and acceptance as this horrific disaster is about to happen and wipe everything out...like he's standing on the beach completely overtaken by relief, awe, and happiness as a tsunami wave is about to engulf him and the city, because he knows that in this tragedy there will come new life, and the hope that with a clean slate we as humans will treat each other better in the literal wake of this catastrophic flood...
I'm just now realizing that the reason I'm so emotional during that part is that depressive part of me that wishes something meaningful and poetic would wipe me out...like, I'm not suicidal, but there's always that negative part of you telling you what a failure and a fuck-up you are and how you'd be better off dead...and that part of the song just somehow speaks directly to that part of me, and the tears are like the acknowledgement inside my brain of "Yes! That's what I want! Please take me!"...music is fucked up how it can pull so many emotions and reactions out of us...
I wish this was the uncensored version. It just doesn’t sound or feel right censored. For someone listening for the first time, their interpretation and experience can be skewed or tarnished in a way. Those few curse words are so important. Anyway……Tool are such an amazing band. Noone like them 🤘🏼✌️💕
Push It is my favorite Tool song and they revisited it Live on the Salaval album with a different rendition of it. I would love to see and hear you reaction to either or both. Love your perspective 🙂
Leave it to you to point out the LA stuff. I always thought it was a metaphor! HA! In my own life i left a relationship that was super toxic and flushed it all way. I left everything and started a journey that was super hard but helped me step through my shadow and learn to swim in a world i barely knew. It was extremely hard for me because i had to recognize the trauma i caused them and know i wasn't entirely a victim. My relationship mirrored my parents...imagine that! My parents taught me exactly how to be emotionally abusive. ugh. I spend most of my days promising myself i won't be that again. It's still a process but i feel confident i'm swimming. Love your videos and congrats on 100k!
You're awesome to be honest I watch your videos for the Mental Health advice that you talk about. I'm Retired Marine Corps Recon and after 2 Deployments in Iraq and 3 in Afghanistan my Mental Health is absolutely horrible. I've been diagnosed with Severe PTSD Treatment Resistant Depression TBI and Substance Abuse Disorder. I get my Mental Health from the VA but I would love to talk to you I don't know if it's because of the similar taste in music but I truly feel like I can trust telling everything.
This whole album is just an absolute JOURNEY! Also fun fact: There are not one or two but TEN Tool songs that are longer than this video. Also another fun fact: let's get to 100k yall!
If you want to keep the TOOL going I recommend Push It and Third Eye from the Salival album versions. Both my by far most favorite songs and versions of those songs ever! Been a TOOL fan for like 30 years lol. Keep up the great vids and congrats on 100k!
@Patterner Many of TOOL's videos are confusing and seemingly have nothing to do with the song. Reactors are frequently distracted with watching, and they miss the beauty or importance of the song. That being said. They are visually stunning. So you should watch at some point. Also, most of them were done completely or at least produced by Adam Jones, the guitarist. He used to work in special effects.
Awesome reaction! Love it! Been saying for a while you MUST do the Salival version of Pushit! Those lyrics are a therapists Disneyland. Btw when I saw Tool love for the first time in 1996 Maynard called this a “happy” song. And these Friday afternoon Tool reactions are the perfect start to a weekend!!’ Thanks!!!
Ok ok I subscribed. You’re lucky you’re so charming, and insightful, and funny, and smart, and cute. This song was my intro to Tool a million yrs ago.. still gives me chills. Keep reacting to Tool and I’ll keep clicking.
My favourite song EVER and have been waiting for your take on it, as always not disappointed, your reactions always give me a perspective to songs I’ve listened to for YEARS I hadn’t considered! Love your work 🤘
For the essential Tool experience start at track 1 and let it play. For context on Tool I'd say; Opiate, 4°, H., the Patient, Lateralus ((probably their most important song), Wings for Marie part 1&2, Right in Two, Fear Inoculum and Descending
I was born and raised in the northern suburbs of Los Angeles. This song hits hard for those of us to lived through that nightmare S-hole of a city. It's been my experience that most people who grew up in LA mostly hate the city.
This is great because this whole album is based off of Bill Hicks stand up comedy. Maynard loved bill hicks and he’s the one that came up with Arizona bay and washing California away and Maynard loved it. He also has another version where he switches it to New York as well that he did live. The last song on this album he even uses Bill hicks “guy on acid” bit for the intro haha
You would really enjoy the RUSH rock song "Animate" - it's also about Carl Jung's theory of the Anima feminine energy in all men in every man - the masculine and feminine energies - Neil the drummer sadly passed away but this was one of his favorite lyrics he wrote with RUSH - he talks about anima and animus as Counterpart energies within every man - it's very well written lyrics and the same idea in an indirect way as this Tool song as far as Carl Jung's work - it's called "Animate" by RUSH
I hate that you are still under 100K... It's legitimately sad, given how many of us need a channel like this! Tool songs... _"INTERMISSION"_ played through into the next song _"Jimmy"_ (only listening to Jimmy, would be a crime!!)
My 10 year old daughter 🥰 learned to play INTERMISSION on the piano for her Christmas recital and to this day JIMMY is still her favorite ❤ song. But to watch the 5 or 6 parents heads POP UP and start looking around like WTF 😮 was hilarious 😂
@@user-sv8oj8nk8z If you happen to have that filmed, you GOTTA upload it! (the recital, that is; the select few recognizing the song _IS_ damn funny though!)
Also, on the must listen, Lateralus is up there. It's such a deep song, and despite Maynard claiming it's an accident, it follows the fibonacci sequence in its syllables. :)
Learn to swim is my favorite line of any song ever. Such a meaning to just be a better human being. I could listen to you commentate every and all Tool song. Some of the oldest ones too off of undertow. Aenima is definitely the peak though.
Love all your Tool reactions. Was thrown off by the censored version but made it comedic in a way 😅 I think the best songs to react to next with mental health subjects or humanity would be Vicarious, The Patient, Bottom, Wings/10000, Intension/Right In Two, Descending & Pushit. As for ones you have to listen to, it’s every song.
I stopped 6 minutes in and I will continue. As a therapist you shouldn't have said that, because you don't really know, plus you know there's more to it. Now, let's continue. By the way, I am happy for you and your mask. I am an alcoholic, I have a couple of years of sobriety. I have a constant battle with my mind trying to stay in the now. Thank you for what you are doing especially with the Slipknot lyrics. I didn't know Slipknot what's trying to help me and now I have the full understanding of them. Thank you. Now let's continue.
Only uncensored TOOL songs please
Lmao, I've never even heard the censored version, it totally caught me offguard... Man, of all tracks to censor, this one haha
Uncensored any song it pertains too. 💯
I heard it censored often in the 90s, with how much radio play it got. Was awesome, too, being how long the song is!
@@kevzehsame lol, was not ready for dead vocal silences
This is why I have not subbed, don't get me wrong but reactors must know their audience....
❤😂❤
"don't just call me pessimist
try and read between the lines" 💯🔥
"I can't understand why you wouldn't welcome any change, my friend."
@@ArkaeaFCL3 i always heard this as "i can't imagine why you wanna wear the many chains, my friend" its neat to see the actual lyric
"Right in two"....will not disappoint, I promise.
Yeees!!! Absolutely!!
"Angels on the sideline again
benched along with patience and reason "
@@edwardmunoz7853 "Repugnant is a Creature who would squander the ability
To lift an eye to heaven, conscious of his fleeting time here"
With my username, I can only agree.
It's such a great song. The Humbling River reminds me of Right In Two.
Oh, it was a comedy special, but Hicks meant every single word.
90% of the country feels this
If she wonders why people hate LA and San Francisco she's lost in the sauce😅😅
considering all the shit thats coming out about LA celebrities acting like animals I think allot of the normal folks who ended up brushing up against that world hated it.
@@JenHarris-n6t Hmm was that a Ween reference?
This song is way more true today than it ever was, but not just for LA for the entire world!! It's definitely time to wash it all away!
Hmm, sounds like maybe you should just be speaking for yourself there.
well, let's just start with LA and see how it goes
Killing in Rangoon
No just america
@@Lleanlleawrg no, he is definitely not
Its time for the Lateralus🍄
Yeah boiii
Time to ride the spiral BAY-BEEEEE!
Jambi
I was just about to say the same thing
Right in two is also a great one and Push it
After you have heard Prison S3x, this is the list you need to understand Maynard and his relationship with his mother and growth over time.
1. jimmy
2. Judith - A Perfect Circle
3. Orestes - A Perfect Circle
4. 10,000 Days
5. Wings for Marie
Absolutely, in terms of Maynard's relationship with his mother and Christianity. I would include "Talk, Talk" with that list of songs.
Anyone who doesn't cry to "10,000 Days/Wings for Marie" either isn't listening or doesn't have a soul. The love and anguish on those two songs is just so heavy.
@@michaelb1761 I would add Pnuema to this list as well
You can say sex
@@Deplorable_GarbageNot necessarily. If you are on TH-cam's naughty list, they will delete your comments for the most innocuous stuff.
You don't think opiate is in there someplace
The message I took away, as a teen, was that this was a message that in fact the world was a mess, that others recognized it, but that there was hope even through the anger.
same but there is little of hope and this song just keeps getting even more true by the day
@@patchworkmusic Of course, it was really only directed specifically at SoCal/LA, and he was "praying" for the San Andreas fault-line to let loose and dump the whole of southern California into the Pacific Ocean and flush it all away. Just a matter of time. 😂
But for everyone else on Earth that loves this, yep. The sentiments are kinda universally applicable. As I interpreted it, the only "hope" expressed was the hope that a better Phoenix would rise from the ashes - but first it all has to, you know, burn... 😔
@@cameronnewman9362 I disagree.
This song is all about hopes and dreams.
"Some say we'll see armageddon soon
Certainly HOPE we will"
and then:
I'm praying for rain
I'm praying for tidal waves
I wanna watch it all give way
I want to see it go right in and down
Do you see it now?
Her first explanation is spot on, with the unconscious feminine/unconscious masculine. I believe Maynard explained 'Ænima' very similarly.
There is no sound like TOOL, there is no message like TOOL has. TOOL is a perfect band, and the music they release is the best music that has ever been! From their beginning to now.🌿🌸
They reached “Nirvana” so we can see it is possible.
Most of the Aenema album is about psychology. It has a lot to do with confronting the things in life that obstruct growth and transcending it. Check out H, Jimmy, Pushit and Third Eye
Definitely sn epic album the first 3 tool albums are iconic to me
46&2 also
Wings for Marie (Pt1) , 10,000 Days (Wings Pt 2). They should be done in one video.
Yes. I second this!
After listening to Judith I would say
The first time i listened to those songs reading the lyrics i cried for like half an hour
After Jimmy and Judith
Yes, you can look at this song as just some cathartic exercise in nihilism, but it's actually a call for change and progress.
Its about hopes and dreams
If you really want to understand Maynard James Keenan you need to react to some of his more personal songs.

that's a perfect combination of songs across his bands that will definitely show his personal growth... great suggestion
Jimmy on this same album
Horizons by Puscifer
I would argue Jambi on 10000 Days is about him and his feelings for his mom
I would also throw in Jimmy. It’s often overlooked as part of this song cycle but I think it marks an important part of the story.
@@israellister4548three great suggestions there!

Thank you Taylor 😊 "learn to swim" was the saying before spiral out
Id recommend eulogy, awesome work and someone who's understands deeper meanings, excellent explanations ty so much ☺️

If you want a song that'll be a complete buffet for a therapist, Pushit should be next. You'll have sooooo much to talk about in the lyrics
this was THE SONG that got me into Tool way back in the 90s
its an all-time classic

every song by Tool is a journey, so to speak, a special experience, which cannot be found in any other band, except maybe Pink Floyd

And I love how you pick up on a deeper, more introspective level of the band than most people/reactors. What makes Tool so unique and brilliant is not only their amazing musicianship and writing but also the deeper meanings of their subject matter and what they want to convey- not only many levels to their musical composition but also to their message.
I worked in food service in Los Angeles for four years, I FEEL and relate to the lyrics of the song SO much.
The Patient by Tool is a must!!
I like your breakdowns. I appreciate the way you interpret the ideas in the songs.
Meh, she's hit and miss.
I'd have a beer with her, but you'll never catch me on her couch.
I would love to see a response video of Maynard responding to this response
Reflection is my personal favorite.
THIRD EYE!!!!!! probably the most important song from tool.
If you're interested in more like this Noe's ark / flood thematic, there is two another songs:
Pantera - Floods (my favorite from this thematic and probably my favorite Pantera song because of the solos)
Five Finger Death Punch - Wash It All Away
Absolutely love these
Tool has been mainstay in my life since I was a teenager. It's fun to see the younger generation discover the awesomeness.
So many songs that you need to do to understand TOOL. Here are just a few... The Patient, Pushit, H, Jimmy, Wings for Marie + 10000 Days, Right in Two, and the holy trinity Disposition, Reflection, Triad. I love your reactions, keep em coming!
This is a great list! I would add Undertow & Eulogy 👍🏼
Also I would add a few Perfect Circle staples...
The Hollow, Rose, judith, and 3 Libras
Had to add Flood as well. To truly go through Tool evolve you have to start at the beginning. 😉
I appreciate your optimism as unfounded as it may be

Death Blooms or Nothing To Gein by Mudvayne would make for good reactions too imo 😁

The live Salival version for sure
This is the most positive interpretation of this song I've ever seen
Please react to death blooms by mudvayne.
It's one of my favorite songs and it has some very sad subject matter, therapy warranting I'd say
That whole album kicks ass. Mudvayne and Slipknot were the bands that got me into metal.
Still to this day, one of my all time favorite Tool songs! “I wanna watch it all go down, Mother wash it all away.” Great reaction!
TOOL🌀🌀🌀🌀
congrats at 100k, couldn't think of a better song to put you over the line!
The stank face while rocking out is pure gold. Keep living your best life. 🤘
Awesome reaction! Love it! Been saying for a while you MUST do the Salival version of Pushit! Those lyrics are a therapists Disneyland. Btw when I saw Tool love for the first time in 1996 Maynard called this a “happy” song. And these Friday afternoon Tool reactions are the perfect start to a weekend!!’ Thanks!!!
Music Video distracts go with lyrics.
This song is what made me love Tool back in 90s
Popular monster by falling in reverse
Ok ok I subscribed. You’re lucky you’re so charming, and insightful, and funny, and smart, and cute.
This song was my intro to Tool a million yrs ago.. still gives me chills. Keep reacting to Tool and I’ll keep clicking.
You're the first person I've ever seen confused by hate for LA 😂
My favourite song EVER and have been waiting for your take on it, as always not disappointed, your reactions always give me a perspective to songs I’ve listened to for YEARS I hadn’t considered! Love your work 🤘
I certainly hope you didn't listen to a censored version.
listened to the official music video! but have the uncensored lyrics next to me :)
@@HeartSupportthe song third eye starts with bill hicks stand up. Great listen
Probably their best song, and they know it. They played this as the encore for 3 of the 5 times I've seen them live. :)
Pearl Jam - Jeremy is a must
For the essential Tool experience start at track 1 and let it play. For context on Tool I'd say; Opiate, 4°, H., the Patient, Lateralus ((probably their most important song), Wings for Marie part 1&2, Right in Two, Fear Inoculum and Descending
Fear Inoculum is one of their best imo
Pushit, Lateralus, or H all three are amazing songs. I love your videos, keep doing what you are doing!
I was born and raised in the northern suburbs of Los Angeles. This song hits hard for those of us to lived through that nightmare S-hole of a city. It's been my experience that most people who grew up in LA mostly hate the city.
Love this girl , you’re so awesome!
This is great because this whole album is based off of Bill Hicks stand up comedy. Maynard loved bill hicks and he’s the one that came up with Arizona bay and washing California away and Maynard loved it.
He also has another version where he switches it to New York as well that he did live.
The last song on this album he even uses Bill hicks “guy on acid” bit for the intro haha
Amazing album from an incredibly deep band.
You need to go see a Tool concert, it`s awesome!
Forty Six and 2, Hush, Lateralus, Schism, and Vicarious should get you well underway. Make sure they are uncensored, too.
congrats on hitting over 100k this last month
Aenema is one of my favorite Tool songs.
This channel is so cool to be a part of. :,))
Jung ! 💪🏽 one of my all time favorite tool songs.❤
You would really enjoy the RUSH rock song "Animate" - it's also about Carl Jung's theory of the Anima feminine energy in all men in every man - the masculine and feminine energies - Neil the drummer sadly passed away but this was one of his favorite lyrics he wrote with RUSH - he talks about anima and animus as Counterpart energies within every man - it's very well written lyrics and the same idea in an indirect way as this Tool song as far as Carl Jung's work - it's called "Animate" by RUSH
I hate that you are still under 100K... It's legitimately sad, given how many of us need a channel like this!
Tool songs... _"INTERMISSION"_ played through into the next song _"Jimmy"_ (only listening to Jimmy, would be a crime!!)
My 10 year old daughter 🥰 learned to play INTERMISSION on the piano for her Christmas recital and to this day JIMMY is still her favorite ❤ song.
But to watch the 5 or 6 parents heads POP UP and start looking around like WTF 😮 was hilarious 😂
@@user-sv8oj8nk8z If you happen to have that filmed, you GOTTA upload it! (the recital, that is; the select few recognizing the song _IS_ damn funny though!)
Also, on the must listen, Lateralus is up there. It's such a deep song, and despite Maynard claiming it's an accident, it follows the fibonacci sequence in its syllables. :)
Love her enthusiasm!
You definitely should check out Right in Two. You will love it. Tool is on another level from most musicians.
Learn to swim is my favorite line of any song ever. Such a meaning to just be a better human being. I could listen to you commentate every and all Tool song. Some of the oldest ones too off of undertow. Aenima is definitely the peak though.
A great song for the current environment we're all living in at this present moment.
Love all your Tool reactions. Was thrown off by the censored version but made it comedic in a way 😅 I think the best songs to react to next with mental health subjects or humanity would be Vicarious, The Patient, Bottom, Wings/10000, Intension/Right In Two, Descending & Pushit. As for ones you have to listen to, it’s every song.
I stopped 6 minutes in and I will continue. As a therapist you shouldn't have said that, because you don't really know, plus you know there's more to it. Now, let's continue.
By the way, I am happy for you and your mask. I am an alcoholic, I have a couple of years of sobriety. I have a constant battle with my mind trying to stay in the now. Thank you for what you are doing especially with the Slipknot lyrics. I didn't know Slipknot what's trying to help me and now I have the full understanding of them. Thank you. Now let's continue.
you are adorable.
your facial reaction to the intro was hilarious , HAHAHAHA
The Patient is very near and dear to my heart. I think it's a good one to do at some point.
Forty six & 2, and Lateralus are for me- the best understanding of who & what Tool is about
