Have yet to play this song when we are going around the room(I'm old) and not seen the bass sway. The eyes bulge. And have seen them 5 times and counting. Even saw them do Merkaba for the first time in 13 years.

Don’t worry about the pauses. We Tool fans know what’s coming, and know that you will pretty much always be blown away the more a Tool song goes on. It’s inevitable. Just enjoy it. The good thing is, you back it up enough so you don’t miss transitions and stuff. So don’t worry about the pauses. Keep going on Tool. If I had a suggestion for a tool song, I’d say The Grudge….simply for Danny’s drumming at the end…and one of the longest screams you’ll hear by Maynard.

You say "In my opinion" ... in my opinion water is wet and the sun is hot. It's ok to just state facts. Carey is as good of a drummer as anyone can be. You can't get better. Maybe different. But not better.

Tool is musical perfection. They have developed a sound that brings in complexity, epic albums that bigger than the sum of their parts, amazing progressions, existential and sociological meaning and four of the most amazing musicians of our time together to make something truly special. There is no one quite the same as Tool.

That's why they have Grammy for this song

This is an INCREDIBLE song. Everything that Tool is, all of the moving parts of TOOL come together in this tune in perfect synchronicity. Amazing.

I will watch and like every Tool react you do, sir. They are always a huge pleasure and every person who dives into them like this gets my views.

The awesome thing about Tool is Adam, Danny, and Justin will work out the music together, then they give it to Maynard and he will put lyrics on the track. They’re one of the smartest bands out there today. I’m in awe of Danny Carey. He went back and taught himself a different technique of drumming. His Poly Rhythms are insane.

TOOL is one of the very few bands that gets me emotional. That could be sadness, happiness, retrospection, introspection, fear, bravery, calmness or anger. They hit a different kind of nerve than any other band that I listen to regularly. Listening to an album from start to finish is more like a journey or experience than strictly just listening to music. Is TOOL for everyone? No. However, if you allow yourself to get lost in the experience it can have a profound effect on you. It's like it was conjured up specifically just for me. Continue this journey if you like what you've heard so far. Subbed and liked for future content. Keep up the great work.

Welcome to one of the greatest bands ever. Yes Tool is truly mindblowing. It's been over 20 years since I first discovered them and since never left me. Danny Carey, the drummer, was the reason I started to play the drums, what an inspiration. They all are masters at their instruments and singer Maynard J. Keenan is a true poet at writing the lyrics and has an excellent, unique voice. Everything comes together and the result is an amazing musical experience. Also a must see live band. Their concerts are, again, an experience you won't forget. Enjoy!

Every nuance of a tool song has a purpose…. It’s not just a song, it’s a journey

You never have to say sorry for how you react to hearing something that is new to you and is blowing your mind. Everyone fan has been in your position and hearing a band they love for the first time. They people that hate on pausing just don’t really understand Tool.

Everything they do is in purpose. They sound even better live!! Best band EVER! Enjoy!!

So many amazing songs in Tool's catalogue. So many places you could go next. But I'd recommend working your way through the lateralus album in order first.

The dope thing is they write the music and after it's composed then the lyrics are added.

Tool's music videos are next level too!

You gotta check out Danny's drum cam......EPIC is an understatement

seeing ppl hear Tool for the first time, reminds me how spoiled i am. having listened to them since the early 90s. and seeing ppl's mind get blown warms my heart.

I still remember the first time i had my dad listen to this, by the end he was in literal tears, he clearly had something that needed either healing or letting go inside of him and tool allowed him to give himself permition to do so... BY FAR one of the most intense songs EVER RECORDED...it really reaches to something inside of you.

I am SO EXCITED that we might have a new member of the Tool Army!! So fun! I was in college when they released this and I remember that roller coaster. That's why we love the "Vicarious" reliving of this experience 😉 (another great song). I adore this album. Enjoy the ride!

You better watch yourself call the fans the "Tool Army". Gene Simmons might sue you back into the stone age....🤑

@@sidneyvandykeii3169 Aww, that old man can't touch me. One of his friends is my neighbor. I got the cloak of Mero AND the rabid Tool Army. I wish more of us had a bit more patience for people learning Tool (the rabidness is a LOT at times). Some of the TA overthinks a lot of things... it can tend to ruin people jumping into the band. That's my only criticism. But we do love these guys. Gene is... not a kind soul, but he can sure TRY 🙃

The song is actually about hypocrisy (The pot calling the kettle black), but has nothing to do with drugs outside of the double entendre . The line "You must have been high" is referencing someone thinking they are high and mighty, when in reality, they are no different or better than the person they're judging. A lot of the subject matter was derived from things they had to deal with while going through a lawsuit with their record label. The sound you were questioning in the instrumental section is the bass with distortion & a wah wah pedal.

Great reaction!!! Love that perpetual movement behind him. And TOOL

That song definitely does it all. It is a good cruize song! Another good cruize song is "Black Magic Woman" by Santana. Check that one out at about 55 mph in your car. The beat goes in time with the strobe of the white dotted lines on the road at 55 mph.

Don't worry about the pausing It's expected from a reaction channel, I love hearing your thoughts as you're feeling them throughout the song. First I'm hearing you loving the content.

Not annoying at all! I loved your honest reaction. :) Thanks for taking my recommendation. Tool is truly amazing - Danny is a wizard on the drums, but they're all beyond experts. Your interpretation was spot-on, by my understanding. Tool is a rabbithole worth diving headfirst into, and it's packed with genius.

Do not appologize for the stops. I'm here for the reaction and your reactions are priceless. 🙂Without them we're just listening to a song.

We got ‘em!! I bump it in my car frequently.
