Absolutely. 15 years after being released, I STILL get goosebumps watching this. Instant time travel back to 2005-ish and how dark my life was...literally one of the only reasons I'm still on this planet is because the music saw me through, ESPECIALLY Tool & APC.
+Lucas Smith If you don't believe his movements and styles are different from band to band then you're either extremely naive or just plain stupid. Open your eyes and look, how about you don't be "that guy"
Ha! I'm totally not the only one who noticed that then. I've watched this video way too many times to count and every single time I wait for him to go into Tool Mode
is anyone else wildly attracted to maynard because of his voice alone? I mean the raw power and emotion in his singing is driving me insane,I cannot even explain it...
When I first saw it, I couldn’t see the whole thing and thought it said “I ❤️ Brazil”, especially since Maynard trains Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Then I saw it actually said Brad Wilk and was like FUCK YES!
Very impactful song on several levels...musically solid...lyrically important. as a fan it f..kn rocks...as a retired mental health worker stabs me in the heart.
underrated by who? Maynard is one of the MOST respected vocalists in rock music. Using appropriate words is underrated. Every. Single. Music video. "underrated' . Use a new word, people, or just stop using 'underrated'. Eff.
Maynard's awesome body movements are a testament to his absolute mastery as a vocalist in all aspects. If you look at his body (Or if you have ever sang with a backline behind you as punchy/fucking godly & beautifully loud as TooL/APC is..) you'll see he's projecting and moving on certain phrasings or screams to gather and feel for the right placements within his body for projection and he also balances himself in his own nessicary way's to absolutely fucking belt it over all that power.. Maynard is truly one of the best Rock frontmen ever to front the mic. People often forget Vocals is a body instrument, not a throat instrument. His movements signify his care, training and passion for the song and the music over everything and anything else. He is A true artist and master musician. Z.
Yet many of his movements are counter to an optimal vocal posture. Hunching over the mic is a perfect example of this yet his voice is still commanding and powerful.
@@Nopaants I huntch over on some phrases to “visually” get the resonating placement above my mouth (Mask/Nose/cheeks). It’s definitely not taught to do this, but when you use compression/tissue distortion/diaphragm throws it actually helps so much. Crazy how everyone is different and our brains need visually leading in many different ways to arrive at the same spot…🤘
I saw this video and his t-shirt when it first aired. A few months later I had the opportunity to meet Audioslave in Toronto and I asked Brad Wilk how his buddy Maynard was doing. He said great and that he was working on a new album, which later turned out to be 10,000 Days.
Really? Cause they performed Judith way before this on Conan. Another really awesome performance if you can find it. I can't find it on youtube anymore....I had to google it.
Pablo Neutrino seriously, been listening to this for over 2 years at work off and on and I still find myself jammin along and stopping whatever I'm doing to listen.
3:00 and what comes next.. IS THE MOST PERFECT PART EVER !!! Every time I come to listen to this song.. I reply it about 20 times.. so I can fill my ears with a nice amount of the *pure awesomeness*
You won't believe this but I will amuse you regardless, I actually saw them perform this song just after the release of this album when this song was actually a hit on the mainstreaming channels... well anyways, I happened to be in the arena where a "girlfriend" of Jame's and her father happened to be attending since this was Grand Rapids Michigan in the year 2003. December 9th to be precise. Look it up.... So! Anyhow, I met her and her father and got to ask some personal questions about "the man" and also got to tell them to tell him that he had a really huge fan out in the crowd and to see if he would allow me to come back stage with them because at intermission they were to go backstage and I was being rude and asking them how they were getting to go back stage. Well needless to say, they came out after intermission and he made some strange physical gesticulations in my direction and I swear we made eye contact as I held my hat in the air as to gesticulate back in that direction "hats off, to 'the man'." Then he screamed that last part all the way up until what you declared as the best part in the song. Which, I am not arguing that point only pointing out that if you heard that scream he did that night all the way up until that next part in the song you might agree that would be technically the best part (live) is all I'm sayin'
@@kollinasbury Sounds like a pretty standard connection with Nard. He's reserved on the record but cares a lot about his fans, & connects subtly. That sounds like a super epic moment! Can u imagine how many amazing moments like that a singer as present as Maynard has had? Must be so fun!
In my opinion that goes to TV On The Radio for their Letterman performance of Wolf Like Me. Search for "wolf like me Letterman" on TH-cam and click the one that says "HD and in sync". (They actually performed this same song on Letterman on 2 or 3 different years!! Yeah really!)
@@ChesterRGC Except Tool fucks up way more than APC. I've seen them fuck up Undertow a bunch lol. Not to mention Adam nodding thru half the set. tl;dr I BEG TO DIFFER!
Don't know about anybody else, but when I'm outside listening to this on my phone....I just feel so good.. I walk with purpose and feel great. Truly an amazing song.
Ughhh. Longtime Tool fan. This just came up in my mix. First listen and was loving it. Instantly recognized Maynard's voice. The struggle is real, as Maynard said it's not like a sprained ankle you can just walk off. Lyrics from the prospective of the Outsider (whom just doesn't get it), and just All so great. Then I stop and watch and Maynard's shirt says I ❤ BRAD WILK... Total LOVE!! Added to several lists while currently on a loop❤❤❤❤ Long live the WIZARD!!!
That outtro 3:18 till the end is a tough bit vocally. People keep talking about the 3:00 scream, but it’s not easy to hold enough breath to finish what comes after.
i love that Keenan's scream was way longer than the album version. I always was a little teased by the shorter album version but live, he lays it all on the line. These guys are awesome :)
The songs on Thirteenth Step for the most part are about the various processes of addiction, behavioral addictions, chemical addictions, and each song is kind of sung from a different perspective. I have a lot of friends who've gone through a lot of these situations. Some of the songs are sung from the perspective of the actual drug, from the perspective of someone who has realized that they have an issue or a problem, also from the perspective of a person who realizes that if they don't do something they're going to die, a song from the perspective of a person who is in denial about a loved one, dying right before their eyes. And in the case of "The Outsider", it's sung from the perspective of a person who doesn't understand at all what their friend is going through, what their loved one is going through, and they think that it's more like a sprained ankle; they can just kind of walk it off."[10]
This song sounds at my place, at office, in mine the car and in my head. This song a soundtrack to my life. Many thanks of A Perfect Circle for your creativity. Store you God. Greetings from Russia.
Tool and perfect circle got me through my teen years. This song gets me through my adult years. Suicide thoughts are no joke. This song brings me back to my happy place
Discovered these guys after trawling through TH-cam for nine inch nails and the went Wow! Didn’t even realise that I’d seen the guy perform with Tool because I was a little worse for wear at the Astoria in London. My bad for not recognising but he was painted blue. Fell in love with Outsider and play it many a time over and over. Ever learning me and I am humbled at stuff that requires my upmost.
I've loved Maynard ever since, i believe he was at lalapalooza in Millipita, Ca in 93, 94? Rage against the machine was there, arrested development. Not many of us young ones knew who TOOL was, but i did😂 i about flipped😂 i ran trying to get a good look.. fell in love🥰finally got to put a face to that mesmerizing voice. Their will be no other that grabs me like that, gives me chills.. love his voice...lyrics are exceptional. He deserves way more credit. Smart dude. Sorry, got ahead of myself, but he was just there chilling and helping out with the bands... we had heard a couple of people saying that they thought that was the singer from tool up on the stage..i was so shook. My son actually met him at a small bar in Louisville, he was doing sound for sepulatura new band..

I've revisited this video several times over the years. I'm still convinced that this is the best vocal performance by anyone ever.
ArseSeeSee watch dreamer deceiver/deceiver live
ArseSeeSee agreed!
Same!
Crimson's Ade Belew, any 80s-90s performance. Huge influence on MJK. But this is absolutely incredible.
Absolutely.
15 years after being released, I STILL get goosebumps watching this. Instant time travel back to 2005-ish and how dark my life was...literally one of the only reasons I'm still on this planet is because the music saw me through, ESPECIALLY Tool & APC.
At 3:09 Maynard goes into '98 Maynard from Tool dance only to realize 5 seconds later he's mixed up his side project with his main.
+DicloniDactyl just what the fuck is this 'Tool Mode' you speak of??? Come off it...please...for your friends and family. Don't be that guy
+Lucas Smith If you don't believe his movements and styles are different from band to band then you're either extremely naive or just plain stupid. Open your eyes and look, how about you don't be "that guy"
Ha! I'm totally not the only one who noticed that then. I've watched this video way too many times to count and every single time I wait for him to go into Tool Mode
+jessesvec its how he pushes the vocals wtf
He probably stopped because of hip pain.
The scream of Maynard James Keenan, gives me chills up my spine🥇🕸
Play on 🔁 repeat please, recommend from the CEO of #aperfectcircle
Always on pitch.
He’s amazing
He braces himself like a strongly rooted tree and executes that perfect scream ❤
@@Songbird888he's definitely into some symbolic sh9t
Its too bad they didnt focus on him completely during that scream. The cutaway really takes away for the scream.
Am I the only one who thinks the live version is better than the studio version???
You’re not. The studio version isn’t that great. Red rocks version is by far my favorite. Probably the greatest vocal performance ever
Nope
Nope most definitely not the only one!!!!
Not better but damn close
I also prefer that one. Its awesome
is anyone else wildly attracted to maynard because of his voice alone? I mean the raw power and emotion in his singing is driving me insane,I cannot even explain it...
Yes.
It's an odd connection, but he made me realize that I could be attracted to hand writing. I have a crush on a girls hand writing that i cannot have
my ex-fiance wanted to fuck his voice
Me too. Instant lady boner.
You forgot to mention his level of intellect too. He's able to read Carl Jung and understand him.
Josh Freese is an amazing drummer!
wasnt he on paramore?
Yeah....also gotta love the shirt!
💯
I started covering this song in my band I just love the drum part. I am at the point where I can play it about 99% the way Josh does on the album.
So is Brad Wilk
You can actually see how deep down he has to push himself. Like the way he contorts his body to get just the right sound he wants. It's amazing!!!
bruh the vocals are awesome, but I don't think that's how it works😅😂
@@painboy66diaphragmic singing is how it works.
@@JM-dc5rnactually it’s all about placement, Maynard makes a lot of ehh,uhh,ahhh sounds which are more nasal placed sounds.
@@JM-dc5rnif you slow the video you can see his nose twitch or tense
He has to poop
Billy is one of the most creative guitar players. Sorely underrated.
Who doesn't love Brad? He is great drummer
HAHA my thoughts too! When I first saw that shirt I was like "right on!"
Even Black Sabbath loves Brad Wilk!
When I first saw it, I couldn’t see the whole thing and thought it said “I ❤️ Brazil”, especially since Maynard trains Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Then I saw it actually said Brad Wilk and was like FUCK YES!
It seems it was a bet he lost that's why he's wearing it
Many of my ex's and no I'm not.
2:42 What a feeling!! this is a really good drummer, he hits it hard. Like if you are watching this in 2023.
Very impactful song on several levels...musically solid...lyrically important. as a fan it f..kn rocks...as a retired mental health worker stabs me in the heart.
I hear ya my friend.
Seems it's the "mental health workers" loss.
Sorry she/he hurt you. 😔
This is one of the best Live performances ever in the Human History period!
Of this song? Probably.
Otherwise, calm yo self.
nah no need to "calm".. just the scream he did is worth the title@@JoSwann-it9jf
Maynard's voice is easily the most underrated in musical history, and he's a famous musician..
Mike Patton
underrated by who? Maynard is one of the MOST respected vocalists in rock music. Using appropriate words is underrated.
Every. Single. Music video. "underrated' . Use a new word, people, or just stop using 'underrated'. Eff.
Us emos have always been an underused subculture of people. =(
Facts! He's voice is flawless!
This performance is magnificent
I mean...how good is this man's voice? Unbelievable
Maynard's awesome body movements are a testament to his absolute mastery as a vocalist in all aspects.
If you look at his body
(Or if you have ever sang with a backline behind you as punchy/fucking godly & beautifully loud as TooL/APC is..)
you'll see he's projecting and moving on certain phrasings or screams to gather and feel for the right placements within his body for projection and he also balances himself in his own nessicary way's to absolutely fucking belt it over all that power..
Maynard is truly one of the best Rock frontmen ever to front the mic.
People often forget Vocals is a body instrument,
not a throat instrument.
His movements signify his care, training and passion for the song and the music over everything and anything else.
He is A true artist and master musician.
Z.
Yet many of his movements are counter to an optimal vocal posture. Hunching over the mic is a perfect example of this yet his voice is still commanding and powerful.

Couldn’t have said it better!… he’s a legend and my personally favorite vocal/writer influence. Just a brilliant instrument he is.
@@Quadz10 he is an absolute vocal pro.
@@Nopaants agreed. He’s out so much vocal coach/technique time in that nobody talks about… it shows!

r/thatactualyhappened
Still remember watching this live like "holy shit that's Maynard. What's he doing in another group?"
Best suprise tv performance of my life..
Really? Cause they performed Judith way before this on Conan. Another really awesome performance if you can find it. I can't find it on youtube anymore....I had to google it.
what a performance! =)
Pablo Neutrino seriously, been listening to this for over 2 years at work off and on and I still find myself jammin along and stopping whatever I'm doing to listen.
Of course it's rev. Manayrd what u expect????????
maynard would make such a badass comic book villain
Yes!
Jamie Darren I can picture him in an Owl costume...
...his front is a pizza store!
Owlman!
Pretty sure hes mocking Pan
+Seedr0 yes
Such a mess, I'm over this, over aaarrrrggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I truly love this version. Come back to it often.
I actually had the pleasure of watching this live. All these years later it still kicks ass.
Maynard's vocals in this are just perfect
Every Maynard's vocals are parfect !
Not really but ok
Love the way he gets his whole body into his music...true and amazing talented man!!!
Everything He touches is GOLD. The man is a fucking genius.
Got to see them in concert 2001 in San Jose. I fell in love and still listen to them often
Voldermorts a great guitarist
Stoneman180190 jajaja
snape on bass!
3:00 and what comes next.. IS THE MOST PERFECT PART EVER !!!
Every time I come to listen to this song.. I reply it about 20 times.. so I can fill my ears with a nice amount of the *pure awesomeness*
Try with TOOL then lol
Was doing this as I read your comment.
It is fucking magnificent. The best part of any song I have ever heard, and I've been listening to music for at least 45 years

Love this band.. but also a huge fan of Tool. Good music is good music, no matter where it comes from!
I love you MJK.
Yeah.. Still coming back to this after 10 years, Im 22 now.
HOW CAN YOU GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS LIVE? WOW.
Every Tool's live while Undertow-Aenima era

Drums are tight on this one! Perfection.
Josh Freese. Name a Band. Any. He played for them propably
And it’s not even Brad Wilk ;)
Still here...2023 hands up!
I have never had a song impact me more live. I saw them live in probably 2006 and this song is hands down then best performace I have seen.
Don't know about anybody else, but when I'm outside listening to this on my phone....I just feel so good.. I walk with purpose and feel great. Truly an amazing song.

Yup 100% that scream is hard but nothing compared to the minute long battering his voice takes afterwards
Look at his movements as he gets that voice out of that body. Insane talent.
It's true, his voice is an instrument and his movements are in harmony with his vocal power.
It's true, his voice is an instrument and his movements are in harmony with his vocal power.

3.00 and my body turned to liquid with headphones and full volume.and i am not even high right now....wow.
well,only a little.
That was freaking awesome. Always loved this song and it’s easily just as good live.
Im crying, i wish it was louder!
Maynard is one of the greatest vocal performers of all time. His band is freaking amazing as well. Love these guys.
I saw a Perfect Circle with Nine inch Nails great show just amazing
Maynard is the best instrument in his bands and his bands are full of Great instrumentalists.
old but gold
Man, sep. 2019 and 4ever)
Sep same here lml
That voice can only be achieved through a soul trade with the devil.. Majestic
Everything Maynard sings is my favourite song. All of it. Im addicted.
This is so good that I still come back to watch this from time to time.
Billy always looks so much at peace!
Shivam Aggarwal no doubt
Josh Freese is so fun to watch. Amazing locomotion as a drummer.

Best male voice of all times.
Fallen angel on Earth.
The way Maynard stands it reminds me of 3PO from Star Wars.
LOL
Lmao! Nailed it!
***** I'm sure Maynard would have found it funny.
It's what a singer looks like, he's activelly controlling dozens of individual muscles throughout his torso.
Lollll
Can't stop listening.

I wanna go back and listen live to these awesome bands playing
My new favourite song again for the 5th time
One of the most solid, tight sounding bands out there. APC is on a different level musically. Saw them live in 04 and still remember the show vividly.
now that s what I call rock and roll
Once again.. after 15 years... I find myself back to this sacred video..
I've loved Maynard ever since, i believe he was at lalapalooza in Millipita, Ca in 93, 94? Rage against the machine was there, arrested development. Not many of us young ones knew who TOOL was, but i did😂 i about flipped😂 i ran trying to get a good look.. fell in love🥰finally got to put a face to that mesmerizing voice.

One of the greatest voices of this generation for sure
For a live performance that was studio tight, bad ass.
Very good performance. Better live for sure. Very impressed
The beauty of this music always brings me back to listen
Literally the best moment in the history of NBC. Ever.
I love this soooo much...2019..still
what a excellent performance of outsider perfect circle
Love this group
maynard looks like amy from the big bang theory. hahaha trust me. great songs btw
Singing songs about how she hates sheldon lmao
big band
I can't un-realize this now lol
Lmao
Why did you have to say that
When this aired on Jay Leno I recorded it on a VHS tape 📼 still have it in a box somewhere in my closet awesome preference 🤟😎
Mesmerizing band
I love his voice....god
kimmyfreak200 I like your face. Seriously, his voice is quite amazing here.
Now THIS is a LIVE performance, THIS is a band, THIS is music!
Miss these guys, hope they still put some more albums out, great talent.
Gotta respect singers that actually sing every word. So many don’t. But he really tries to recreate the original song that we all love. Bravo
One of the most powerful, passionate and flawless performances ever aired on the history of tv. And Maynard didn’t even sing at his full potential👌🏽
0:38 love when the bass kicks in
i cant believe I didn't comment on this 16 years ago. One of the best performances in history.
This is just incredible.
Love this more than the album vers.
The vocal performance on the album, to be honest, isn’t that great. Every single other version is great though haha
His voice is unbelievable!!!
Man, these guys are incredible live. And Maynard, i don't have words to describe his greatness.
Nobody really had or has this unique sound. The band is just pure art
Essa é uma das minhas músicas preferidas. A Perfect Circle é uma banda extraordinária.
2020 still listening to this 🔥
Wow. It's been a minute. Remembering how these lyrics used to nail me to the wall when I was in the thick of my active addiction...
I'm so sad about the possibility of people knowing APC without having listened to Tool
It's most likely the other way around....
Dunno about that man. APC is significantly more accessible than Tool
That's why its the other way around.
i don't think so. i have listened for about five years to apc and then discovered tool by accident
+Juri Radov the same for me
The 301 people that didn't like this need their ears checked! Maynard has the best voice in rock history!!!
