This is the baseline that Justin Chancellor wrote while waiting to audition as Tools new bassist. Such an iconic song.
In my opinion, Justin just took their sound to completely different dimension.
@@christianfrankjamoomba couldn't agree more.
I met Justin Chancellor at a soccer game in 2009 and literally broke into subtle tears that he, thankfully, didn't notice. We shared some beers and did NOT talk about TOOL. Supercool guy.
I'd always heard that D'Amour wrote the bass line but was re-recorded by Chancellor when D'Amour left the band midway through the recording of AEnima.
@@chucknorris1948 nah there's an interview where Justin talks about not really wanting to join tool and wrote this baseline on the plane ride to audition.
This song changed my life. I wasn’t in a good place as a young man but that changed one night. I took mushrooms and sat in front a speaker at my brother’s house for six hours with this album on repeat. No one noticed, we were all tripping. The words and music spoke to me, told me that I could evolve mentally and spiritually. It showed me I wasn’t the only one struggling to crawl out from under their rock and look at the sun.
Changed me forever, for the better. These guys are the best at what they do. Thanks for doing this one!
Tool & Shrooms... the absolute best way to open your mind and reconsider what is possible. Saw them live in Orlando on a HEAVY dose. Insane experience.
Ender7 your comments gave me chills. They’re one of my very favorite bands, I saw them on their first ever tour and it was life altering, a spiritual, transcendent experience. I’m a retired firefighter of 27yrs, I struggle with depressive holes and mental health issues occasionally, due to nearly 30yrs of seeing people at the worst times of their lives. Nothing works like music…it along with my loving wife and dogs are THE ONLY things that can pull me out.
Thank you for sharing, it made my evening. Especially since I’ve tripped more times in my life than I can count and when you’re dialed in to your surroundings, it’s a very special feeling.
🍻
Spiral out brotha
LOL
unity consciousness
I’m a 35 year old, father of 3, business man, golfer, gamer, skateboarder. Nice to meet you polo. Enjoy the ride brother, you only get to experience these songs for the first time once.
So i am an absolute sucker for lyrics because i am writing poetry myself and this song is a masterpiece let me tell you.
He is basically singing about the next step in human evolution.
46&2 is referring to the amout of chromosomes in humans.
46 is the current amount and two additional chromosomes is assumed to be the next step towards ascend.
When he is talking about the shadow he is speaking in the idea of a very famous psychologist Carl G. Jung who speaks of the shadow quite often in his work.
The idea behind it is that every individual has a dark side.
A shadow they have to overcome.
My shadow is a lack of self discipline for example.
My mission as an individual is it to integrate the shadow of my personality into my live and learn to live with it in the best way possible.
This is the theme of this song.
Shedding skin.
Stepping through the shadow and comming out the other side.
Committing to metamorphosis.
Be part of human evolution.
Find the next step towards greatness.
This shit is motivating me to study physics.
or genetics. ;) Great Post.
@@majormattmason8408 well yes science in general is a wonderful workfield but i personally am getting ready to study physics in real life and this song is motivating me to do it, but i see how it would be even more motivating if you would plan on studying genetics or psychology :D
That would definitely be even more compelling when compared to the theme of the song.
Well said. Me and My fuckin shadow lol... working on it
I think mjk talked about the meaning of this song back in a 2004 interview. You're pretty close to what he said.
@@smileygladhands i didn't see the interview, so hearing that it is correct makes me happy.
Thanks for reassuring!
I will look for it to see if i got anything twisted :D
How many people were here just waiting the drum reaction? Gotta love Tool fans
As a Tool fan, it is so great watching someone also fall in love with Tool
‘I don’t care if you’re mad, let’s go’ (playing the killer riff for the 3rd time). We’re not mad Polo we’re right there with you brother 👊🏻
Dude, no lie, this song got me through jail time with my sanity intact. One of the greatest songs ever made.
It probably is the perfect song to carry in your mind through something like jail time. Endure the hell, step through, and get stronger.
I didn't know you watched Polo Reacts John! I have absolutely loved watching his reactions to Tool! Their music seems to get a lot of folks through incredibly difficult times. Music that is transcendental, complex, and never boring!
Kudos to you for pulling that off, John.
I saw a tik tok account that said the same thing. He also talks about books
What did you go to jail for?
You should listen to Right In Two next. Among my favorites, very melodic. Really love the way Maynard rounds out the vowels in that one, like he's wrapping himself around the bassline.
Second this
Third this
Fourth This🤘. That drum section about 5 minutes in is…hard to put into words.
Fifth this❤❤❤❤
Right In Two is my all time fave Tool song.
Fourth this. Right in two is transcendent. Take notes, cuz it’s exactly what we’re doing to ourselves
Not a single bad song! Really not a single mediocre song. Greatest band ever IMO 🤷♂️
I’m with you all the way! Yet to find a band that satisfies like Tool.
Agree with the first two sentences, and then I remember that Tool isn't even my favorite Maynard band (A Perfect Circle). Still, can't find any fault in your opinion. Both offer wildly different vibes, while maintaining unconventional sounds within their respective genres; each providing a surface-level suggestion of chaos, but meticulously created.
@David Monroe well I am one of the few TOOL fanatics that really doesn't care for Maynard's other projects. They have a few songs I will listen to, but for the most part, they are pretty meh to me. But hey, to each his own 🍻
@Lance Thompson I get it. Tool is my preference between the two while doing anything (driving, housework, etc.). APC is better sitting music for my tastes. Honestly, I'd love to see them in a small, all seated venue; a la a stereotypical Jazz lounge.
@David Monroe agreed. It's just a different style. Nothing wrong with it at all. I, too, would enjoy seeing it live (APC OR Pucifer).
It never gets old seeing someone experiencing Tool for the first time! I am a classically trained musician/singer/songwriter who had an original alt-heavy rock band in the 90s. When Tool came out, it was like they’d reinvented the wheel. There was a lot of anti Tool sentiment from the “grunge” (for a lack of a better word) or classic rock scenes. As a trained musician, I could understand just how sonically mind blowing Tool’s music is. Keep in mind, we’re still in the age of the “guitar hero” of 80’s metal of varying genres. I hated gratuitous guitar solos & loved that Adam Jones was using his instrument to create & build intense moods. I appreciated each one of Tool’s members for their musicianship, for their dedication to creating something new & incredibly powerful. As a songwriter, Maynard’s lyrics & otherworldly sounding voice blew me away & challenged me to push my own writing. Justin’s dense riffs make songs come alive & OMG Danny Carey!!! Drum God who is a gift to this world. THIRTY years of loving Tool & it never gets old. I love how you now love them too! Share the love!! ❤️🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼❤️
Thank you so much for focusing on these brilliant musicians. They are transcendent.
they are just a dumbed down pearl jam. overated af.
@@tacotacotacobajablast6821 yikes. Another smooth brain.
@@tacotacotacobajablast6821i completely understand liking tool theres a lot to not like about them but seriously?? pearl jam? 😂
@@tacotacotacobajablast6821 it's never too late to learn to appreciate great music.
The final run in this song is a masterpiece in and of itself❤
This is such a great track! For those who appreciate Danny Carey's drumming, here is an actively synced drum transcription of Forty Six & 2: th-cam.com/video/NRRgYZJRICw/w-d-xo.html
Still gives me goosebumps after all these years. Tool are a genre in themselves. Masterclass
I love it when you "nasty"... perfect word for tool songs!
This is pretty much a Perfect Song.
The greatest part about Tool is that they take you on a magical musical journey while shoving hard facts and dark humor in with an abundance of schooling…. ☺️
Carried me for years. Love em.
This is one of my favorites. lol they’re all my favorites. The meaning behind this is learning to let go of the ego and heal your shadow. To keep evolving and growing, learning and loving yourself. I’m struggling with this sometimes lately. But I’m trying so hard.
Deftones passenger. Great song and Maynard does the chorus
Yes!! 🤘🤘🤘
YESSSS!!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Every song on this album should be a number one
If you get a chance, go see TOOL live, you won't be disappointed. As you watched with their Sober live performance, they're close to their recorded versions, the band is even better live now. I've seen them quite a few times over the last couple of decades and there has never been a bad performance, and easily the best band I've seen live in my forty years of going to concerts. Good reaction as always.
The continuation video of this reaction was great, just don't drunk text anyone, that shit never works out. lol
Tool and Pink my two favorites. To me they each have their own genre. No other bands can say that
I don't know if anybody has said it yet, but the children from "The O'keefe Foundation" slay this song! It's a must watch if your a rocker wanting to keep this Genre alive! 💪
I just seen it. Thanks for the heads up! 🤘@@GWOTKoolAid
Whenever i think of Tool, it is this song that comes to mind. This is the quintessential Tool song.
This is my favorite tool song! I'm so glad you reacted to it.
Mine too.
Was the fourth one I ever heard, my second favourite until Lateralus came out, and still one of my favourites to this day, a quarter-century later !
One of my favorites.. learned this bassline by ear when I was 16, absolute classic
My suggestion for the next ones are Vicarious, Jambi, or.... the Holy Trinity- Disposition, Reflection, and Triad. All 3 of those need to be listened to as a single performance, because they flow together
I read an article, and they said: " We never changed, it's like we are are on a river bank, the water flowed (the times) and finally reached our bank, and it will flow past. Whether we are remembered after it's gone, only time will tell, but we will still remain in our same spot fishing for receptive minds.
My brother, Bobby, was a HUGE tool fan. Loved A Perfect Circle, too. Before he passed, we talked about his funeral. He didn’t want the typical music you’d hear at a funeral. Nothing sad. He wanted me to play nothing but Tool and A Perfect Circle at his wake.
You know, it’s crazy, but my brother wanted this song played when he was buried. It’s funny when I remember the looks I got when I placed my phone under his casket… but I felt Him and I know he approved. The looks I got when I played this song as they put his casket in the ground…. He would have loved it. Love you, Babo:)
I can't believe how long they have been around. 🤔 Time surely does fly.
This whole album is amazing, Jimmy, H, the intermission that goes right into Jimmy, eulogy. Thank you for exploring Tool. We're here with you!!!
Tool's music is so amazing I wish my ears were bigger...
Totally stealing this saying.....
Awesome how into Tool you've gotten, they truly are amazing. Eulogy is my fav song, overlooked gem, I hope you give it a listen.
Eulogy drum breakdown and lyrics r bonkers. Good call my dude.
My fav too! Great instrumentals too
Totally agree with Eulogy. Don’t know why it is so overlooked. Hooker with a Penis is another favorite.
Soft, peaceful, beautiful, calming . . . then louder and building but still the same . . . and now crunching and powerful and aggressive . . . but still the same thing. That is genius.
This song got me through one of the hardest times. It spoke to my soul and made me powerful. It worked.
Everything came through like magic.
I LOVE THE THOR reference! Love you!!
Would nice to hear Tool for the first time again.
The other day I was listening to this song in my car with my wife, and suddenly the lyrics made so much more sense to me. I've been doing major work with my therapist digging into my traumas from a past filled with abuse and pain. This song is about digging into what you've been hiding from yourself, the past pain and trauma, digging into the infected wounds on your heart, healing, and moving through the shadows and darkness and evolving to a higher state. It's very psychological, and I am once again in awe of how deep Tool's lyrics are.
Im going thru it to brother good thing we got good music. We are always in are thoughts
Our lol
I have been a tool fan since the late nineties and I got a chance to watch them perform this song live at a small outside venue and during the song, out of nowhere I was overcome with emotion. I was standing there with tears streaming down my face, enjoying every second. I went by myself to that show.
I know that feeling.
You really get a special connection to a song if it manages to make you cry.
I get that for specific songs from Jinjer and Heilung.
Those will alsways stay close to me.
The power of music is beautiful. I reacted the same way when I saw Judas Priest live about five years ago.
Great music is wonderful.
Did the same thing when I saw them live for the first time around 2000. The ending got me very emotional. Polo needs to see them live. It’s life-changing.
Aenima rips! My favorite album, it's loaded with meaning for me and is pure nostalgia.
I am loving watching your Tool journey 😘👍
The drum track is a creamer for me, watching him play that was explosive. He looked he was having so much fun
BLINDING
Back in the day when a new tool cd came out you bought it..and then listened to it over and over because one sound will catch you and you miss other things..took a while! Haha. Maynards voice is like another instrument in the songs..awesome 😁💙
Carl Jung, Frued's best student says, “Everyone carries a shadow, and the less it is embodied in the individual’s conscious life, the blacker and denser it is".
I don’t know if “Freud’s best student” is a radical compliment or an Avengers-level burn.
Tool does however have a clear cut best song that all Toolarmy will agree apon,,,, its the one thats playing!!!! Literally, so no matter how many you hear, it will always be the one thats playing!!!
That Chord you are hearing is power of a Guitar tuned in Drop D. It's gives such a fat sound by giving you the ability to play a 3 string power chord. Loving going on this journey with you 🤘🤘
Love playing tool on guitar!
Parabol/ Parabola together! These songs together are on another level for Tool! IMO one of their greatest songs.
ABSOLUTELY!!! 💯
There aren't even really the words to express everything about those songs taken together...
Not that you could adequately find for a 20min video, anyways.
The heartbreaking earnestness of the lyrics. Maynard's voice, as he expreses this story...
The composition of the music.
The building layers...
Truly on a different level.
Please have yourself a great day!!
🙂✌️
Tool is the only band with a Lead Drummer and a rhythm singer 🤣
I agree with what others have said... PLEASE look at the Kids Cover 46 and 2 by Tool / O'Keefe Music Foundation. There are haters, but there are also many who respect it for what it is... kids.
I’m telling you man, this whole album is 🔥
Totally agree, one of the few I own on Vinyl!!
The lyrics are about the Jungian Shadow, and essentially growing by delving into painful aspects of your psyche that are often suppressed.
Absolutely a tremendous song. Take the time to read into the philosophy of the lyrics; you will not regret it.
I’m just here for that trippy thing in the back.
This is one of my favorites, the whole album is a masterpiece.
I had to sub now after a few views on the channel. And a big thumbs up for the Thor reference (as a Swede).
Cheers!
I've loved Tool since Undertow released. My 5 year old daughter heard me viewing your video. She said that the music gets in her head and makes her in a mood. And says she likes it, lol.
This song is about Carl Jung and Froids theory on the shadow Aka the unconscious mind and the ego the conscious mind becoming one to become one’s true self and to evolve the normal 46 chromosomes to 48 hence 46 & 2 there’s a lot more to it then that but that’s pretty much the basics 🌀
I always thought it was referring to the 46 chromosomes, among which human chromosome #2 is a merger of two chromosomes, unique from the other great apes (who have 48).
So, it's human psyche, which is made possible by chromosome #2...among other things of course. So homo sapiens = 46 & 2. Basically, the shaping of human nature.
Just my take on it...
@@michaelnurge1652 evolution is a major part of it and if you’ve ever heard of Lloyd pye he’s done presentations on all this stuff and has basically proved the theory
@@michaelnurge1652 We as this species now can evolve ourselves evolve our own DNA to reach the 46 + 2 and become our true self or our true form and not be stuck in our own ego filled dogmas and the only way this can be achieved is by battling our shadows, the things we don’t wanna know or have forgotten about ourselves that haunt us, these things have to be flushed out and integrated into our conscious minds if we are to become 46 & 2
@@anthonyv6962 I’m not a scientist but I’ve seen convincing enough evidence and I’ve done a lot of research on this stuff but at the end of the day that’s just how I interpret it and I know they never worked together but they both have interesting/controversial takes on human consciousness
"I don't even care if you're mad, lets go." LOLOLOL Perfect. New sub.
I’m in love with watching you fall in love with these songs. Takes me back to when I first heard them. The more I listen to them the more I become obsessed because they all speak to me that just moves me and makes me feel. Some of their songs got me through some hard times and still do. It’s a requirement too for anyone I date to love Tool. I listen to them so much. Love his other stuff too but 10,000 Days used to be my favorite but it rotates now. So glad I’ve seen them a couple times in concert. So worth it.
I absolutely love watching these. I love how people of different musical genres can kinda meet up here and enjoy learning new music.
This song is amazing. The lyrics are basically about picking and digging through the crap from your past that messes you up and keeps you from being better. The scabs are the traumas that you allow to shape you, and picking them off exposes the trauma and allows you to process, understand, and truly leave it behind. Tool's the shit
Thor with a guitar instead of a hammer 🤣 That's a great metaphor!
This is 100% the song that got me hooked on TOOL. Danny goes nuts outside the beat on that drum feature and I'm like what... the drummer is a GOD?!?!? SIGN ME UP! It was a very different experience from just hearing Sober on the local radio station, which is not a bad song, it just doesn't even come close to this... or The Grudge, or Eulogy, or Pneuma... so many crazy good songs
When they tour again, go see them. I have seen them a handful of times and they put on an amazing show. In my option the best live show.
I love how much you connect with the music and really allow yourself to slip into the journey. You're definitely going through Tool's top tier tracks, and they really don't have any bad or mediocre songs. SO much ahead of you too!
I love how he repeated a section of the song 3 times just because it spoke to him. I do that same exact thing!
It's hard to pick a favorite Tool song, but if I had a gun to my head, this would be it. Forty six & 2 just ahead of me. Spiral out 🤙
Maynard has another band called Perfect Circle. Check out the song Judith . The bass player is Paz … love her ….Tool gets into you through and through .
Paz doing up her hair is as sexy as hell. 🥰
I have watched several ppl reacting to TOOL but your reactions are the best in that you don't see as surface but you go deep I dig your reactions and thoughts. I appreciate everyone's reactions but you are my fav
The way I'm feeling today...YOU sir...are just as GOD like as the forces that made all the universal stars align to bring these particular people together who recognized in each other their musical philosophy and said to each other..."Let's DO this."
Vicarious, the grudge, Eulogy. Your next 3.
I am newer to your channel. I have been binging some of the videos. I appreciate when you state you have heard something and keep it real. But watching your first reaction to tool is amazing. I have a trained ear and can say I have performed many shows live. But watching how you interpret with an open intelligent mind and really capture the flow and articulations of a song is very impressive. tool is a complex creative band. I learn to reappreciate them through you.
I'm so massive proud right now... not proud... massive proud... spiral out
Palm muting is really just what it sounds like. You put your palm on the strings, either lightly or heavily and it kind of suppresses the sound and gives it sort of a "chug" sound.
Please don’t ever apologize for “reliving” moments from Tool songs. Long time Tool fans still do it. I’ve been a fan since the Opiate EP and I still do it. 🤷♂️
This song used to wake me up for work every morning a few years ago ❤
"Thats how that ends, wow" lol yup nuff said..ROCK on! lessss Gooooo!
Quote of the day "one more again, I don't care if you're mad" my man!!
I had to "again his againing" it was so perfect
tickets to their shows are expensive, but utterly, totally and completely worth every penny.
2023 and still getting shivers from this masterpiece!!
Awesome reaction! Would give anything to hear this song again for the first time! Thank you for sharing your Tool journey and I can’t wait to see you experience even more!
I’m doing that right now. Wowza! Very reminiscent of the Eastern influenced rock of the 60’s. Gorgeous.
I love the way you scrunch your face up when you’re getting in to the music. I feel the same way.
“Listen to my muscle memory
Contemplate what I’ve been clinging to
Forty-six & 2 ahead of me.”
Listen to what’s guiding you, wonder what’s holding you back, lead on towards enlightenment.
I feel like I’m just repeating myself at this point lol LOVE this 🖤🔥
Hi Carrie Happy New Year!
@@lindaaugone382 Happy new year Linda!!
Omg I can’t believe I missed your reaction to my personal fav . I can’t wait to see your reaction I’m writing before I see it . I’m so f excited yeeeew 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I love watching your videos awesome music.
You have the perfect DJ voice don’t stop!
Dude! Welcome aboard the tool train. The facial expressions you were making as you rocked out were great. More tool please. right In two is my favorite tool song. Rock on.🤘🏻🎶🔥
I remember this song was one of my first favorites of Tool. So as favorites change constantly, I don’t listen to this one too much these days. But gd it’s a good song. Fun, even.
This album came out the day I shipped off to Basic. I waited outside the store until they opened at 9, binge listened, then was picked up at noon and wouldn't hear music again (only cadence) for 5, 6 weeks. This song and Stinkfist (which had been on the radio for a week or two before the album's release) sustained me through that time.
Hypnotic is the word you're looking for
Polo, i think you're my new favorite. ♥️✝️
this is my favorite song on the greatest rock album ever created. no song takes me to the realm that this one does. it’s a pure utter masterpiece.
Wings for marie part 1 and 2 are in my opinion the greatest pieces of music ever written. Especially if you know the background of Maynard and his Mom. Simply beautiful.
Man I’m loving these videos. Definitely a subscriber. But I’m loving this journey. TOOL was introduced to me by a friend that I lost not too long ago. It has been and will always be my favorite band.
Lovin how tuned in you are to this track!
@poloreacts ...... first of all, awesome channel, and so glad u found tool, ur reactions are great, I gotta ration for u.....its this song "36 & 2" covered by O'Keefe music school....ur welcome
Hey man, i know its been awhile since you did this video, but im just finding your channel-thanks so much for checking out this song, this song hit me deep as a kid and it made me want to get into making muisc and get out of some of the other dumb stuff i was doing that was leading me down a dark pathm..heard this song and i went and sold off most of my stash to a guy in my neighborhood and bought my first bass guitar knowing "yea, i want to do that"
That is a great story 😊 Very F--king cool.
Your TOOL reactions make my day!!
That’s one of my favorite endings to a Tool song evah!!!
This song was my introduction to Tool back in the late 90’s. Talk about life changing. I totally get the Thor analogy and this song def suits a Marvel or DC movie although I doubt they would allow their music to be commercialized in that way. Great reaction and love that you replayed some epic sections multiple times 🤙
It was used in the first Captain America trailer.
I could have swore I've heard tool in a movie...but its like a b side. I know a perfect circle did that one song for that one resident evil movie....kinda over did it...
Gotta hear "Eulogy" by Tool. Few have reacted, all have been blown away, same with "Jambi".
Let's goooooo! Ive been looking forward to these tool reactions from you
