  • i wonder if maynard got the idea for this song from the first verse of times are a changin by bob dylan. just a thought

  • when world does end am going listen two this somg and thats end of world

  • abstract video for such a devastating song; the lyrics on this song are so awesome & meaningful. it's a tune for the end-times (if we're it); and I always thought this song was named for its chorus, "Learn to Swim". Thanks for posting the video!

  • jokes on you tool. tidal waves occur at least twice a day.. tool kicks ass

  • No, it's called Ænema. ; )

  • When I saw this title, I expected the video to be a loop of "learn to swim".

  • creepy alien thing, great song

  • @MrTrailhound u are one of the IDIOTS i am talkin about......Peace BITCH!!!!! hahahaha.....u cracked out hippie!!!!

  • drumsssssssss r badass

  • this song was obviously inspired by aliens

  • At a bar in Leawood, Kansas Friday night. There was a guy singing this song off the karaoke, well kind of. He knew the song line by line. His voice was pretty damn close. Very impressed.

  • Who cares what he titled it atleast they're is some good music left on youtube most got taken down

  • No such title by Tool. It's called AEnema.

  • @snupcho lmao. why would he title it learn to swim? stupid freak living in LA

  • @awkookrenewed hahaha

  • @snupcho This makes it easier for people to find when searching for the song on youtube..not everyone knows the name of the song

  • @snupcho

    Thanks I wasted some substantial amount of the life that I have left try

  • hi /b/

  • @FuckRetroAnything

    Sure you're not thinking of Third Eye? Cause they actually have bits of his stuff in that one.

  • nope it learn to swim by Anders Behring Breivik

  • Song is Aenima

  • swim / do i sink or swim/ i think i can fly

  • I am drowning, help somebody, is there anyone really out there? Am I the only one?

  • followed by millions of dumbfounded dipshits ;-)) followed by fault lines that cannot sit still.....

  • i wanna see it all fall down..ANARCHY in 2020...thumbs up for the death of the Institution that suppresses true freedom

  • the point of this is there was a pact within respect of creation okay? so it was made that if we created and brought you all to life there was no way getting around figuring out why people beings aliens deity etc want to do wrong there fore death row was a perogative it was the only way to remove sin from the universe instead it turned into war and that is the Webbs fault, they disagree with criminals having anything to do with God.

  • Aenema pendejos  !

  • cool video

  • Some of you people argue about the most stupid shit......idiots....just listen and enjoy.......why does everyone want to be all hostile all the time.....LOSERS....

  • U ass u got the name of the song wrong

  • @ELnIn0777  who cares?

  • shut the fuck up copyright talking faggots comment on how incredible this video is

  • If it wasnt for this title, i wouldnt have found this song after hearing it.

  • I'll respond to my dragon boobI..:)

  • Mother, don't stop with California. Wash our entire fucked up post modern culture away. Let a new age begin....

  • @RKarma19 Um hm, said the tie sky

  • Ill swim my ass off

  • Never Seems to amaze me how mr. maynard writes his lyrics so well that no one can understand that he is a true far right wing fanatic! :) In this song he describes how hes sick of the liberal, multicultural, cosmopolitan cess pool of california.. He hates everything about that rat, roach, and monkey infested shithole! More so he obviously hates the weak, apathetic, self centered, culturally bankrupt, money worshippers, which inhabit said shithole the most!

    -Mom please flush it all away!!!

  • I see alot of talk in the comments about comets and doomsday scenarios, cataclysm, etc. I can't say anything in a defacto manner as to what the real meaning here is but i'd put a sawbuck on this song being a bit of an homage to the Arizona Bay philosphy Bill Hicks evolved during his career - worth looking in to given the connection between Hicks and Tool. Just my 2 cents :)

  • Some guy posted this song to his facebook and dedicated it to Japan.

    I found it very insensitive.

  • @lashkaretoiba wow..

    

  • This man is obsessed with a fault line.

  • This song is awesome, its about 'Comet Elenin', the lyrics describe the future perfectly, it will be here in a few months, we're all going to die soon.

  • When the tsunami his you are you gonna be strong enuff to swim your way out of it

  • @Johnblaze1420 how about next time a tsunami hits we drop you off and see how you do

  • i cant even come up with a creative comment so im just gonna say. Danny Carey is one twisted bastard for designing all the tool videos!!!

  • @superdavelane4 pretty certain you really meant Adam Jones and not Danny Carey.

  • @TheDouchesupreme damn lol i thought it was danny all along thanks for clearin thatup!

  • I love this song can anybodie tell me if liking various deaths, the feel of pain, and wearing black everyday is goth or emo? Anyone? TOOL IS FUCKING CRAZY AWESOME!

  • I was born and raised in L.A., as was Tool.

    This track sings of my sentiment towards it: "Learn to swim fuckers."

  • "stupid shit....stupid shit...stupid shit..."

  • i wonder what the term "Learn to swim" in this case means..

  • So well fitting for a time like this!

  • some say well see armageddon soon, sure hope we do..

  • here it comes Cali. tsunami is made of dreams!

  • The bassist of tool makes me jizz buckets.

  • what's the ideal height for swimming?

  • @TheLeilisa as high as you can get on the water should be good enough.

  • fuck all the smiley glad hand assholes...lol

  • this song is great very ttru

  • Hey man great song... But the real name title is Ænima

  • o fuck going die learn swim

  • learn to swim. bitch

  • oh, and dont get mad at this dude, i thot the name was something WAY different lulz

  • so what IS the real name? cuz i had to guess it and i need to know the lyrics

  • THIS SONG IS CALLED "LEARN TO SWIM"

    YAY!! YAY!!!!

    YEAH MOTHERFUCKERS YEAH!!!

  • Let it swim, the little monsters swimming towards you.....meaning to kill.

  • this song is to dope

  • i love how everyone cares soo much about the title of the song, just enjoy tool and how sick they are

  • good thinking using the wrong name to avoid the copyright bullshit.

  • WTF???? The name of the song is Aenema DUMBASSS!!!

  • @chasenascarfan you are the DMF.

  • @trahpek75 WAT IS THE DMF?

  • @trahpek75 dUMB mOTHER fUCKER?

  • wtf u stupid retard its called aenima u fucking retard

  • @Massengale666 you cant use the real name of the song, its called a copyright you faggot

  • this is a awesome song

  • it is acually called aenima

  • TOOL..........................­...!!!!!!

  • That's whats so great about Tool is their ability to make such badass syncopated rhythms all equally awesome for each instrument especially singing to such rhythm signatures is extremely hard. This song hits home too. Think about all of the stupid BS people complain about and how much people's ego create so many problems in the world BUT how fast all that BS would come to a halt with a REAL WORLD CATASTROPHE. That's when you'll see the who's REAL BADASSES R not all ego and wanna be gansta crap.

  • @011assasin Dude, that is what makes the videos just as great as the music, the scary creatures and monsters in their videos......GEE, get a clue.

  • These guys are the greatest modern group, I will put them up there with Led Zepplin of yesteryear. I can just imagine what it would be like to be one of these guys....the hottest chicks whenever you want.

  • I enjoy some of Tools stuff I just wish they weren't so... ungodly i guess.

  • What do you mean?

  • @171apples171  ungodly? i HOPE YOU ARE A DYING SPECIES

  • @frostinad Our beliefs are obviously... different. I wouldnt go so far as to say i wished you were a dying species but i guess you can think and believe whatever you want to believe. Things will be very clear in the end.

  • This song has some of the best lyrics ever.

  • when we used to smoke weed to this on the radio, we thought he was talking about tripping watching the world come to an end. love this song.

  • this and a perfect circle are my favorite tool songs

  • ;-)

  • fags fuck ur comments the shits bumpin!

    

  • the song is really called Ænima... -.-

  • this video is off the hook

  • I like this name better. They should keep it.

  • HOPE ALL KNOW WHAT MEAN Ænema ...

  • @learntoswim91 The title Ænima is a combination of the words 'anima' (Latin for 'soul' associated with the ideas of "life force" and a term often used by psychologist Carl Jung) and 'enema' the medical procedure in which introducing liquids into the rectum and colon via the anus. The increasing volume of the liquid causes rapid expansion of the lower intestinal tract, often resulting in complete evacuation of the lower intestinal tract..

  • YEAH ! LEARN TOSWIM LEARN TO SWIM :)

  • fuck all you people trying too be smart by stating the correct name of the song six hundred times idiots

  • epic song, but i bet WB or someone is still gonna bring copyright laws and crap, saying somethin like u renamed the song to try to make it ur possesion or sumthin, but who cares? XD

  • "fuck all these gun toteing hip gangster wanna be's"HaHa fuckin love that line

  • Learn to swim!

  • Learn to swim? LOL!!! A TRUE TOOL fan right here...

  • @phatbuddha70 I know the true title is not Learn to Swim but do you know about copyright laws?

  • @phatbuddha70 I know the true title is not Learn to Swim but do you know about copyright laws?

  • @turnco wait did you make this video or

  • @turnco the "copyright" rules only matter if you`re claiming their work as your own (which you`re NOT), and if you`re not giving them proper credit (which you ARE).

  • @turnco But you know you can change it now, right? I havent seen a video with copyright in a while... :P

  • @phatbuddha70 um who cares if they're a 'true' tool fan or not you pretentious douche bag

  • @phatbuddha70 The fact that you're flaming someone for that shows you ARE a tool.

  • @phatbuddha70 it may keep the song up. ive been listening to tool for over a decade and i typed in "learn to swim." i understand where you're coming from, but does it really matter? haha

  • Comment removed

  • @phatbuddha70 A TRUE piece of shit right here ill see you at Arizona Bay

  • OMFG THIS SONG IS SOO FREAKING AMAZING!(:

  • coolest acid trip evar!!!!

  • Ænema is the correct name.

  • Has anyone ever heard of a copyright?

  • @turnco

    I have. But what does this have to do with me stating the correct name?

  • @turnco

    i'm pretty sure if you put a disclaimer in the description, or edit the video a little bit at the beginning, nobody will give two shits, so put the proper name man

  • @turnco put quotes on that sumbitch then. but yeah is see your point... just grow your hair out and nobody will notice. :)

  • @turnco plus it helps people like me that love the song but have no idea the name

  • @ninjutsumaster tyty was looking for the lyrics ;)

  • the song is called AENIMA NOT LEARN TO SWIM

  • GREAT SONG!

  • Ænima, actually.

  • i heard this song on the radio, never heard it before, but i could tell it was tool by the amazing drum beats.

  • fuck all wanabees!

  • wtf i spent a hr trying to find this on i tunes!!!

  • i think all the tool song's are good . this is a good band .

  • all you mutherfuckers can go fuck yourselves. don't reply to this cause all i got to say to anyone is: learn to swim. i really dont give a fuck what you have to say to me.

  • I can't wait for the day that this song comes comes to life... I want to see it all go down.

  • i am here in LA... i am ready. i can swim. i can hold my breath for 2 minutes. i can surf on plywood. please mama. were ready.

  • Some say the end is near. Some say we'll see armagedon soon... Certainly hope we will. ;-)

  • God Bless!......Learn to swim Mutha Fuckers! Obama Care won't last

  • Actually the name of this song is Ænima.

  • no its not. its called Ænema.

    Ænima is the name of the album.

    that realy annoyed the fuck out of me when i though the song was called Ænima.

  • Los angeles YOUR NEXT!

  • dedicated to the victims of the tsunami

  • freakin amazing song...... and why do they let kids on youtube? (johonzie&tickyul)

  • Whats with the tards arguing? Can't we all just enjoy the musics?

    lol

  • @meshuggah6pantera you said it yourself, theyre tards. nuf ced

  • This song is most definitely called Ænima. Nice job, dipshit.

  • Should'nt it be "Let it swim"? That would fit with the ULTRA scary feel you get from most of thier songs. Like one of those little monster in the video is swimming toward you. Them videos are almost as scary as watching muslims saw some guys head off with a dull knife.

  • did someone saw your dick off too??? Is that why your so lame azz????

  • Yes......Tard, some sawed my dick off. Can you be a little more Tardacious in your post? Or are you one of those groupies who has your nose up the groups ass. Oh, I really hurt Tards feelings because he did not like my post about his IDOLS, boo hoo. I bet you spend all day memorizing the lyrics of your favorite group, drooling over the day you can meet your heroes.

  • Um Im not the one who acts like a pedifiling mofo who wants to kill puppiues and babies and all that shizzzz....I am a chick too dumb FARK, I bet your a fat Fark that needs the fat kicked the shiznut out of.

  • Here soon your gonna have your own big nose up yo azz......I bet you play plunger monkey at night and imagine its your good ol friend Mr. Kinish......

  • Uh, Uh....are you versed in the english language? I have no idea what the hell you are trying to say. I bet you are a real greasy, , butch lesbian. I make a harmless post and you reply with such filth. And nice job making a DIRECT threat towards me. Try googling the following term:

    "threat over the internet""arrested"

    And yes, your comment is posted on my Youtube Channel, NICE!

  • see you soon......i am done wit you

  • Keep it up! You have made 3 direct threats to me, and they are all posted on Youtube. You are just making your problem worse. Is making threats the only way you can make your point? Pretty lame.

  • Lighten up, Francis. ;-)

  • @SFLRailFan Well feller, my name is not Francis. I was no even wound up about anything, where did you get that impression?

  • Comment removed

  • Man! I don't listen to music much, but these guys are the best. Rarely does a group come along that is soo dark and scary with thier music. Listening to just one of thier songs makes me want to go out and encase a bunch of puppies in cement! Great, just great!

  • Its not about encasing puppies dumazz.....its about the end of the world when California falls into the flippin ocean.....better learn to swim....this song actually fits you...listen to it wannabe

  • you should also listen to the song stinkfist.....seems it will fit you in the future

  • Seems to me, you don't know a lot. Just listen to yourself ramble.

  • uh this is a computer....you DUMBAZZ

  • My uncle is Vincent Quattrachio, care to repeat that?

  • hahahahahaahahaah!!!!!!!!!! What a dumbazz....dude you are such a lame......
