  • 3 Maynard 3 This song still brings me to my knees.

  • perfect song i swear to god

  • is it wierd 2 be a strait guy and like this song?lol

  • @AntiochzFINEST23 why not? your gender has nothing to do with the enjoyment of music. Well, in most cases.

  • still makes me cry

  • MAYNARD! I SEE YOU!  I SWEAR!

  • 50 people obviously don't have any idea of what beauty is....

  • Maynard is so very much artistic and socially inept. He must have had an awful childhood. He is immensely talented and inspirational. A true artist to his very core.

  • @57badarse yes he did have a bad early childhood.his mother was paralyzed from the waist down (influence of judith and the title of the album 10,000 days and he was abused by his step father. he however moved with his real dad and said it was the best thing he ever did.

  • @Ikillyuasyusleep another one!

  • such a fantastic song about being unnoticed

  • Condoleeza/Calendula

    yellow/orange

  • Is that Paz playing violin @ 3:16?

  • I got my girlfriend playing this song for her but from the beauty of it's sound . two years went great we always listened to this song . now she's a different figure WITH a different figure left me alone to sing this .

  • @Drumma786 I don't know if you were trying to be profound or something, but your post doesn't make any sense at all. "figure?"

  • how a work of art like this got made in this day and age is beyond comprehension.

  • Divine melody... and nostalgic also.

  • tool an a perfect circle are badass bands

  • Hey, Justin Beiber is a good, wholesome young person... and I want him to drown in his own blood!

  • @porchpuppy1001 12 year old. stop joking about bieber. it's stale, old, and unoriginal.

  • This song was the one that opened my mind to Maynard's music.

  • Why has Justin Bieber been taking photo's in his underwear lately? It's like child porn. I don't get it. Is this supposed to be a joke or something?

    This is the tragedy.

  • Jenna Betha Journer

  • 50 people are deaf / like Justin Bieber

  • Why the bloody hell is the APC Imagine music video from SleepyNiteLite blocked from my country?! I ain't from Wonderland for fuck's sakes! DDx<

    I'm from the fuckin' US!

  • Yea Glee would never make any money off of APC or Tool that's whI y they wouldn't touch it. Don't worry. I remember when this came out way back in the day. I did know what to expect tho with James Iha in the band you're gonna get a more romantic type sound then Tool. If you're at all familiar with the Smashing Pumpkins they were like grunge rock's hopeless romantics. And by the way, Dave is shit. Garbage. I hated Dave Matthews back in '98 when I was 12 and I still hate him.

  • @TerrariumFusilage1 please you're making my heart race when you put Glee and APC together in the same sentence. How could you do that to me? I thought we were APC buddies?

  • FUCKING EPIC!

  • Hey dudes, have you heard about the info that there is a new band, making a music close to the Tools planet we could say..call lizZard..i was surprise my self but they are not some Tool Wanna be, if you want to see it

    search on youtube

    LizZard The Orbiter

  • omg i just figured out what this song is about and its so sad.he is so proud of his son but feels as if he cant take credit for any of his childs accomplishments because he hasnt been there for most of it,but at the same time sees his self in his boy while he is out indulging in flesh and it hurts him that he doesnt see how proud he is but the lifestyle he leads will not allow it.

  • @methuselah1618 he feels passed over but why wouldnt he anyway devo will be more appreciative when he is older and doesnt have to work when he realizes how rich he is and how truly great his father is.mjk thank you for your sacrifice either im drunk orr my eyes have been opened to a different light..

  • My favorite song of all time! APC fucking rocks

  • geez..i love this song

    by the way dude

    there is a band which is doing a lots of noise those days and i guess from the same planet as A Perfect circle is from....

    search on youtube

    LizZard The Orbiter

    ....

  • @patriota54 hey theyre actually good..wtf. the drummer sounds like danny

  • 50 people nee their asses beat!!! how could you not like this song???

  • dudes and all Tools'Fan or APC, did you ever heard about a band call LizZard...it s not a TOOL wanna be but it s something from the same spirit and...woaw..can t say enough words about it, the best is go check by yourself.

    Youtube search

    LizZard The Orbiter

    ENJOY

  • You know that feeling you get when something is so beautiful you want to cry? That's how I feel about this song. I could never stop listening. It is wonderful.

  • im a libria so its me and 2 of you!!

  • If I had to choose a song to describe my life,this would be the song.*sigh <3

  • I laughed sooooo hard when I heard someone say "Side Project"...I think we've all seen what is and what isn't a side project!!!

  • Heard it for the first time in 2001. I was on my way to my grandmother’s funeral in Iceland. My cousin was driving and had made this mix tape with it on. On a 6 hour drive, we got to hear it a lot.

    The night before the funeral, my mom wakes me up to tell me that my uncle had been in a car accident and had passed away, on his own way to the funeral.

    I listen to 3libras for the remainder of that summer and all through my late teens, when i felt really alone. It still gets me.

  • @Oreteshe seriously, who cares? why do people keep posting the stories of their lives on youtube? it's tiring

  • @Salatta666 Well, YouTube is a social network just as Facebook or Twitter...

    I don't mind reading any story from a person I don't know 'cause maybe someday I'd like to share a similar story to others and it would be a way of relieving myself.

    Anyway, that was just an opinion. The answer to your question is up above.

  • The imagery of the video is interesting. A post-puberty childhood spent overlooked by women but with a successful rockstar life (and a wig) we're knee-deep in pussy? The phrasing of the song is much less sexual than the imagery in the video: simply it expresses childhood/teenage (or even adult) bitter feelings of being overlooked. Almost Emo!

  • I just love this song ... I just love the rhythm ,... I just love his voice ,... I just love everything about this song ...!

  • music is a blessing

  • I love this song! It seems to describe me so much, that when people ask me "What song best describes you?." I will say this song!

  • @sillygrl23  agreed

  • only a 1.9 % dislike. . .that says something

  • Count on Maynards music videos to be fucked up lol..

  • Is it possible to write a better song than 3libras ?

  • @k0brakai Jim

  • I was really into Tool & APC in high school. This album came out when I was in 8th grade. Not as much into them as before, but this song is really a piece of art

  • This is one of those songs, that even on my happiest days i can listen to it or watch this video, and it floods my emotions, its a very powerful song.

  • 2001 I wasn't in pain this is why, I thought music was coming back but I was wrong. Now I cut myself daily LOL

  • People who don't like APC or Tool songs are probably offended by one way of looking at the lyrics. Maynard writes songs with multiple layers of meaning and sometimes he is flat out blunt about his message. Give it a couple tries before making a conclusion.

  • here I am expecting just a little bit...

  • I can't get enough of this song!

  • Who's Dave Matthews?

  • @chrisbowen78 a rapper

  • a rapper

  • I like A Perfect Circle but this shit sucks! Sounds like cross between Dave Matthews and some NSync crap.

  • Probably the most beautiful song I've ever heard. Could listen to this a million times and never grow tired of it.

  • Why this song have to end?!

    Love it btw xD

  • maynard your amazing!!! this song is crazy fucking beautiful!!

  • yes this song has got me through the worst of times beautiful beautiful song it always brings me up from the depths thanks circle

  • blah blah blah... /me rolls my eyes

  • I really Fucking love this Fucking Song~!!!!!! To DEATH I love THIS SONG BECAUSE ALL OF IT I CXAN RELATE TO~!!!!!IT"S LIKE THE STORY OF MY FUCKING LIFE!!!!!

  • you don't , you don't , you don't SEE MEE!!! <33333333333333333

  • I kinda wish I could live in this song forever.

  • i think everyone can feel something with this song

  • thumbs up if you hate Libras to lmao

  • już pogodzilam sie z tym że moich myśli nikt nie pozna,pogodzilam sie ze światem ze swiatem...ale ta muzyka +wino w dalszym ciagu robi niezly bajzel. KOCHAM XXI w. dlatego, bo daje mi możliwośc wyrażenia tego co jest we mnie,nie tego co mogloby sie wydawac ale co po prostu jest. I NIE MUSZĘ sie z tego tlumaczyć. kocham to...tę muzykę

  • man, Maynard is life changing, no lie lol. He's the best thing that's ever happened to me as an inspiration and everything else, almost.

  • sometimes different means better for sure :)

  • I want to cry everytime I hear this song- its so beautiful

  • tool and APC are two of the greatest creations of maynard. i wouldnt be the same without them. and this song is just amazing.

  • @figs1984 Word, man. Tool and APC were life-changers for me. I'm a COMPLETELY different person than I would have been without having been introduced to Tool when I was 11 and then APC later.

  • *wipes her eyes* this one and sleeping beauty... kill me

  • @algoAzrael emo much?

  • Ever hear a song the first time and you just hated it? Yep, this one. Couldn't stand it. I was like, "Whats up with this Dave Matthews shit?" Not that Dave is shit, I was just waiting for Tool part two. Turns out I was just a part of the masses that didnt understand beauty when it first appeared. A truly wonderful song. I find it at the jukebox frequently

  • @Jamesesii those are badass jukeboxes, the ones I usually see only have crappy music...

  • @Jamesesii Same with me . My wife played this so much that I began to like and eventually embraced it.

  • @Jamesesii What do you have against Dave Matthews Band. I love Tool, APC, and DMB.

  • @dogluvr6776 He clearly just stated he had nothing against them.

  • @dogluvr6776 Oh nothing at all. I love DMB. It's just that when I first heard it I was caught by surprise. At first negatively, but I grew to love it nonetheless.

  • @Jamesesii ,, glad u finally get the song and the beauty... it isss just a beautiful song isn't it. u should check it out live on jay leno, juusssttt as fuckin good!

  • @Jamesesii Keenan shed some more light on this song in their aMotion DVD, where he explained that this is a song about parasitic-like people seeing something different or special about a person. Instead of nurturing that quality or helping that person grow, the "3 Libras" feed off of the energy in a bad way instead of using it for good.

  • @Jamesesii Lol dave matthews is my inspiration

  • makes you wanna cry

  • this song makes me cry.

  • this song still gets me very emotinal

  • Thank you Maynard for what you're doing for me every time you singing.

  • this album is like 12 quid and its been out quite a while, thats how gd it is :)

    such an underated band!

  • 47 dislikes listen justin bieber

  • holy fucking shit the best

  • E¡SIMPLEMENTE SE SIENTE

  • I ADORE THIS SONG ITS SO BEAUTIFUL WITHOUT BEING PRETENTIOUS X

  • Maynard is GOD

  • Thanks Mr. M.J.K ...

  • I want to know, like so bad, who the 3 libras are. Girlfriends?, family members?, bff?, band memebers?, agents?, record company? the world will never know...

  • @chichithepea I've heard it's 2 ex-girlfriends and his mom> Libras often have their own agenda and will use others to accomplish it. and they don't see him at all.

  • @chichithepea they're who you want, and think they are. that's the beauty and the talent of keenan's writing. he has said it many times, he wont underline what 'it's all about' music is different things to different people. he doesn't underline that 'libra' in the context is an astrological sign either. ^^ be it justice, a liberator or balance. or maybe all the three, which are also meanings of libra ^^ this could go on and on but it's still just an opinion, no one and everyone are right.

  • @chichithepea though I could take the 'expecting too much from the wounded' and the biblical paintings in the video (which to me are a an obvious reference to something of the sort) as a sign that one of the libras may indeed be 'god' in some sense. I'm not a religious man myself, but god, to people. is many things, be it science, or love, or even the religious figure. everybody needs 'god' but 'he' doesn't see us, no matter how hard you look and how deeply you believe, or indeed see him.

  • "The next song is called 3 Libras; and two... maybe three of those libras are here tonight. If this song sounds bitter, that's because it is... and I am."

    - MJK

  • I can be in a perfect mood and I will start to cry.

  • Yep, soak it in...the only good song a perfect circle ever made

  • @mackles "Yep, soak it in...one of the amazing songs a perfect circle made" fixed*

  • If that fucking glee show ever does APC or Tool songs I'm going to jump off a cliff

  • @JumpedShark lmao, I would too!

  • @JumpedShark I don't know, they did Rocky Horror.

  • @JumpedShark I'm with you there buddy.

  • @JumpedShark ?! That was random.

  • @JumpedShark don't give'em ideas man!!!

  • @JumpedShark .. and i will be right behind you but i will have lit myself on fire first so i will be falling behind you aflame! then when i land on you i will light us both on fire and we will be a pile of pissed of ashes.

  • @JumpedShark Don't worry - it's not mainstream enough for them xD

  • @JumpedShark i would at least it watch it, if there's nothing else on, might be interesting..

  • @JumpedShark Why the fuck would u think that a Mickey Mousified high school musical production would ever possibly cover Tool or APC?? You'd have better chance of winning the lottery than that ever happening.

  • @JumpedShark and I will be hot on your heels after you.

  • @JumpedShark At first i liked glee.then i realized, what the fuck am i doing then i listened to apc

  • @JumpedShark I'll kill those bastards

  • @JumpedShark they never will so...

  • Comment removed

  • @JumpedShark i'll jump with you!

  • @JumpedShark What if they did a really good job though? like it wasnt gay but really cool actually?

  • is it in bad taste to say that the ladies in the video are quite sexy?

  • @gutshotFilms..... yes yes yes. I agree, I lay and listen to every word of every song and cant help but feel and hear love.

  • i have a ? does any of apc or tool songs mention the word love or even like? just sayn...

  • @SESTINA69 maynard writes many songs about love. just because the word isn't there doesn't mean he can't express emotion towards the subject

  • @SESTINA69 "There's no love in fear" -pushit

  • looks like Iggy Pop's son

  • After a breakup years back, I would open the Bar and clean up ect.....repeating this song over and over again on the jukebox. The song kicked a door down for me. Good Luck Erica wherever you are...

  • difficult not to feel a little bit...

  • one of those songs you wish would last forever

  • danny carey ( drummer\ from paola kansas) lived next door to maynard in LA heard maynard yelling at one of their neighbors and thought right away that maynard would be a good singer- man, i cant even rate him he's beyond everyone and will never be reproduced by anyone or any band especially with all the shit that is bein put out today. u dont know shit about tool till u see them live

  • I'm in love with Maynard!!

  • A voice like an angel...!!! I miss tool :(

  • @SiriusAlexx Give it time, its bin confirmed that they are working on another one and it should be expected around the end of next year

  • great song......i luv it

  • it definetly has an impact on people / me <3 it

  • rite bak there.. ... you dont see me... u dont see me at all!!!

  • i think this song connects to everyone. most of us go through life by example, not really being completely ourselves. nobody really sees us for all that we are. we live life under a "mask"

  • I love this song. Deff one of my all time favorites. Tool & APC are the greatest bands ever. Maynard is the best, hands down. oh && if anyone thinks they are atheists, you couldnt be more wrong. thats the LAST thing they are.

  • i just love this dude, one of the only few bands that i love every album they come out with in both bands. . .please keep them coming, its my escape music

  • The problem with atheists is that they claim to know something everyone else doesn't, when they truly can't prove their assumptions, just like any other religion. The trick is to understand that no one knows anymore than just plain existence. Everyone truly has their own reality, to say that you know what their realities are and dismiss them is a continuance of the confusion we've been breeding. I'm a dude, he's a dude, she's a dude, we're all dudes. Does anything else matter?

  • @Freshadeneu

    The problem with every religion, is that they claim to know something everyone else doesn't. If they all knew the same thing, they would be one.

  • @jgr8781 This goes back to third grade when you stood in a line with your classmates and each attemtped to tell the same secret to the other in a linear fashion, trying to maintain its integrety throughout. Info gets distorted so spreading gossip is wrong & etc. These parables Christians clame as a write of passage are also found in the cultures which they've chosen to exclude themselves from. We're much more alike than we will ever admit. Yet, we seperate ourselves like kids on the playground.

  • @Freshadeneu That's why I'm agnostic.........dude

  • I cried inside listening to this song.

  • @AiriiDragon i cried outside listening to this song lol no shame

  • Im a virgo and I dont get along with libras much but I still love this song though.

  • I feel every word about my brother....

  • favorite APC song if it had a vagina i would fuck it LMAO jk

  • common kids its youtube, must we have a debate over everything? lets be big kids and agree to disagree and enjoy the song.

  • wow ppl just listen to the damn song stop trying to find out what it means lol thats goofy.

  • i love this song

  • @dugantc4 thats not what he said the meaning of the song was when he wrote the answer on the website. but i guess people hear what they want in songs, what ever relates to them, or how they interperate it for whatever reason.

  • One of my favourite songs.

  • @dugantc4 no.....that is your opinion.

  • I love how this string section sounds almost broken

  • I believe the video is about a guy (maynard) that was good and innocent when he was a little boy and then grew up and became not so innocent (with the women in his bed). They are just showing the contrast of what he was like when he was a child and what he is like now as an adult, it's kind of sad.

  • @chichithepea he explained that this is a song about parasitic-like people seeing something different or special about a person. Instead of nurturing that quality or helping that person grow, the "3 Libras" feed off of the energy in a bad way instead of using it for good

  • @alaarab88 Okay, actually I was commenting on the other guys question on what the VIDEO was about, not the song. But, anyway, what I heard was that the song was about 7 people in Maynard's life that were all Libras that used him in a bad way, like you said feeding off his energy. He is so lucky he can turn his emotions and experiences into this type of art...I wonder how he learned to sing...how did he ever get a voice like that? I heard he was discovered on accident, yelling out a window.

  • two fantistic children, who call me uncle tucker who i love like my own, father killed his neighbor 1 hr ago with an ak47 in tx. please keep these beuatiful children in your thoughts and prayers.

  • @THEdUdE16939 lolsecondammendment

  • Anyone have a clue as to what the fuck this video is about? The references to the three girls by the pool and in the bed are obvious, but any of the other parts of the video?

  • @MisterLTAV Uhh i saw a video where he talks about the song and he said it's actually about 9 people that are all libra's and its about how they acted like they were his friends and then just turned their backs on him or something.

  • @mrandyson456 I know that. I'm talking about the video itself, not the song. Maynard explains the meaning of the 9 people who abused him (not physically, but in other ways the women and friends abuse a relationship) and didn't see him for what he wanted them to see him as.

    WHAT I'M WONDERING is what the VIDEO is about.

  • LOVE THIS SONG! Means so much to me!

  • @ohprettykitty This song speaks volumes about my life, I can so relate to it. It is almost as if the song was written for me about the darkness that transcends my exsistence.

  • i feel this song...every word

  • i shaved my pubes today :)

  • @jwad57 I know. I watched you

  • @Disciple624 - you are both sick and wrong!
