Read an article....think it was Buzzfeed...a few months ago that tried to rank the best to worst Tool songs. It was after reading that I realized the person who wrote it was either: 1: An idiot 2: Playing a really early April Fools joke. Reason being, there are no BAD TOOL songs. Yes, there are some that are better than others of course, but I can make an argument for something to like about every single song in their catalog. There is not another band on Earth I can say that about. NIN is close, but I do actually dislike 2 of their songs.

Tool's version is a cover that's 4 minutes longer. They slightly change the lyrics in places, add a fast-paced section at the end, it absolutely kicks ass.

Watching people try to groove to a Tool track on their first listen is genuinely hilarious 😂. I take for granted I know the rhythm like the back of my hand. The main riff is 5/8 and 7/8 alternating, when the first change happens, that riff is 6/8 and 7/8 alternating. Really though I just nod to the pulse and accept that sometimes the accent is on the up beat and sometimes on the down beat.

Love that y’all caught onto the near constant time signature changes adds so much to a song about not being able to communicate, also diggin that OutKast deference too I hadn’t heard that before but I can definitely see where you’re coming from both genius songwriters. Subbed

the song is primarily in 5/8 and 7/8, but switches time signatures 47 times throughout the song. React to NIghtwish - Ghost Love Score live at Wacken 2013

Next Tool song: Pushit (live version is a MUST), Right in Two, Vicarious, The Patient, Ticks & Leeches.

You guys give this senior citizen hope for the musical future or America's youth. I thoroughly enjoyed watching your expressions throughout the entire song. You've got one more subscriber. Cheers. You're Dad was right...smart people DO listen to Tool. (Check out Porcupine Tree)

He doesn’t sing to the music. The band makes the music then the singer makes lyrics to the music. Then they mix and perfect the song.

@Everett Domalewski Hey thanks friend! Yeah we are LOVING Tool, everything about them is impressing us to the max, can’t wait to record another! 😁

Tool I believe has multiple time signatures going on at once between the drums, bass and guitar and then there is Maynard's lyrics that just tie it together. But there are multiple time sigs going on at the same time. It like layers over really well. Just my take. Found Tool in the mid to late 90's. I'm 50 now and just went to see them live a month ago. They are my tops. If you want to really get the feel, binge a complete album. You won't regret it. Also if you like Tool, give "A Perfect Circle" a try. You'll like them as well. It's one of Maynard's (lead singer TooL) side bands and they are legit. Pucifer isn't bad either.

I get chills over my entire body with Maynard EVERY time. His music is part of my soul, yet it's like I'm hearing it for the first time every time. When he passes my heart will literally ache.

Alex and Andy, as a Gen X’er who grew up when Grunge took over Hair Metal, you’ve actually stumbled on to the very finest our generation has to offer, not that this is Grunge. Tool is their own genre, there’s no one like them thus far. They don’t ever release an album that every song doesnt’ completely move them firstly, and then their fans. Go through their album list bottom to top and see if you don’t feel it too!!! I could just say review any song but please review Lateralus and check out the math equation that the time and syllables match cup with the complex mathematical equation called Fibonacci which mirrors both biological organisms and the free market. Beyond that know that they didn’t do this for their hubris but rather to point you away from it. These are some songs to review: Jimmy ; Jambi; Rosetta Stoned but you must play the intro ( the “song” before it )and show the lyrics think (alien abduction); Right in two; Disposition; Flood.

Probably the best Tool song I have heard although I have drifted away from them over the past 5 years or so. Most excellent tunage!

Fuckin aye, good job guys. Got a new sub here. I am impressed both by your open minds and by your analysis. Keep it up!

I love watching young blokes blown away by the music of my generation. We're old, but not invalid.

The opening of their songs always give me goosebumps

I have had the privilege of seeing TOOL live several times and I can say with the most confidence that how they sound on their albums is exactly what you will get, and sometimes more, in person. They are incredible. Check out Ticks and Leeches. The drumming is phenom.

Great reaction guys! The whole song is badass, glad you liked the bass intro. Think about it, this song uses the bass line to introduce the melody -- and keeps the melody throughout. _And_ the time sig changes, _and_ the incredible competence of the whole band. Good choice. Welcome aboard.

Great video guys! It's about a breakdown in communication between lovers using puzzle pieces as a metaphor. I really like this song and would give it a 10. I haven't listened to a great deal of Tool, but from my experience, this is a rather tame song for them. Also, Willie Nelson always sings behind the beat on pretty much every song he's done. He's a far cry from Tool, but Alex talking about singing behind the bar made me think of it. Until next time...

What a killer bass I haven't heard many Tool songs but I'm sure this song or another Tool song was on that old favourite game Guitar Hero love the rhythm guitar and the singing is very soulful.

Its so sick, and im so stoked, that "younger" people are both discovering and STILL being blown away by this band. I was 16 or so when lateralus came out. And its just great.

They need to see tool on tour right now.

Tool is an album band, much more than a radio single type band. I'm glad you're enjoying your Tool discovery but these songs are even better in the context of the album. You're going to love them even more when you hear their place in the larger masterpieces.

None of there stuff is 4/4 that drummer Danny Carrey is the king of Odd time signatures but still being in that pocket somehow. Huge inspiration. One of the best. Southern playalistic cadillac music/ outkast first album. Still a classic today.

thanks. I’ll be seeing these guys at Rockville this year. Not too familiar with their music. Looking forward to reacting to more Tool with you guys.

I have been listening to TooL for over 25 years now and would have to recommend Laterallus and have the lyrics up when you do. That song has a very specific structure that you two would love and be inspired by how he worked metaphysics, mathmatics, music, and spirituality into the song. But please check out his two other bands also... A Perfect Circle and Puscifer. Both are VERY unique and show a different kind of Maynard James Keenan in each.

Your father is a man of wisdom.

On Schism's time signature: "The band has referred to the time signature as 6.5/8. Although many composers would use 13/16 instead, 6.5/8 is still a valid fractional time signature. The song begins with two bars of 5/4, followed by one bar of 4/4, followed by bars of alternating 5/8 and 7/8, until the first interlude, which consists of alternating bars of 6/8 and 7/8. The following verse exhibits a similar pattern to the first, alternating bars of 5/8 and 7/8. The next section is bars of 6/4 followed by one bar of 11/8. This takes the song back into alternating 5/8 and 7/8. Another 6/8 and 7/8 section follows, and after this the song goes into repeating 7/8 bars. The middle section is subsequently introduced, consisting of three bars of 6/8, one bar of 3/8, and one bar of 3/4 repeating several times. At one point it interrupts with two bars of 6/8 followed by a bar of 4/8, twice. A bar of 5/8 is played before the meter switches back to 6/8 for two bars and 2/4 for one bar. This repeats, setting up another section: two bars of 9/8 followed by a bar of 10/8, that pattern again, and then a single bar of 9/8 followed by alternating bars of 6/8 and 7/8. The outro has alternating bars of 5/8 and 7/8, ending with alternating 6/8, 2/8 that one could interpret as pulsing with a 4/4 feel."

Been listening to tool since ‘91 anything of of aenima will be good, ticks and leeches, Jambi, the pot, 46&2, ...hard to just name a few from a band where everything is a 10/10!!

You seem like some chill dudes. Subbed.

AndyReacts They're a Scottish rock band who were influenced by the likes of Metallica, Rush, The Foo Fighters and Nirvana. They have such a unique sound. I've seen them live 4 times and they get better all the time. Great channel lads and fantastic reviews and reactions. I'm using my wife's login as I couldn't be bothered doing my own!! Keep up the good work... Mikey.

Love the analysis. When you mentioned how Andre 3000 goes beyond the bar line I immediately thought of another artist in another completely different genre: Willie Nelson.
