  • Jonah Mowery sent me here

  • I swear to god these covers are better than the originals! Imagine as well! I can't believe I would ever say that a band doing a cover of these songs would be better than the original but they are.

  • I wish more Americans felt this way.

  • @mypinion America as a continent, Not a country. I live in Costa Rica by the way.

  • @knacksahut dumbass america is a nation, north america is a continent.

  • Song's been muted.

  • @themovieman247 Tell someone that cares?

  • @themovieman247

    that's the second time you've said that

    what do you mean?

  • but, no, really. I love this song, and everything Maynard does. his music is all together astounding, whether they are someone else's songs or his own.

  • @ssgoko88 so is this now a brony song...?

  • i came here for my daily chills <3

  • i think this song baisicly saying:

    im going to love and tolerate

    ...

    ...

    the shit outta you

  • @ssgoko88 yeeeaaahhh Brony!

  • Awwwwwwww *__*

  • i love apc...tool and everything maynard is a part of...but this song is the kinda thing they just shouldnt do....lol ..oh well just my 2 cents its still better than 99.8% of everything new that you hear on the air today..but then so is a kick to the balls

  • amazing..

  • the first verses remind me of "clenching the fists of dissent"

    you you compare then both you will understand...if you don't too bad.

  • Theme song to the tragic of events that has happened and that is happening of this planet.

  • i dont know this band and im usually a hard judge on cover songs, but this one is great. i think that these lyrics were phenomenal when marvin wrote them and better when he performed it. this is pretty good too. i cant say its better than the original but i think that it works. i get the feeling that this is how the band sounds and they made the song in their style, which is (duh) what a cover is. so i guess what im trying to say is, i like the song as a cover and as a song by A Perfect Circle

  • I guess things looked bad back then....wait a few years.

  • Picket lines and picket signs,

    Don't punish me with brutality,

    Talk to me, so you can see,

    Oh, what's going on,

    I love that bit. Absolutely fucking adore it.

  • APC shout do a cover of Inner City Blues- another Marvin Gaye tune...better than what's going on

  • @champ2040 great choice

  • This rendition really gives me the feeling of being lost. Whats goin on. Spinning in a wasteland. I was there my brothers and thats how it really was. Vietnam 1969-1971

  • set repeat on then fall asleep, there's nothing like it

  • @TheForsaken99 Completely agree, I have done this many times :)

    

  • @TheForsaken99 How DO you set it on repeat??

  • @GiGaPLExxx128 You put it into a playlist list, then put it on autoplay, and it'll loop the song

  • @GeistvonWut Ahhhh thanks!! :D

  • @GiGaPLExxx128 No problem! I have about 8 playlists now because of this process. lmao

  • @GiGaPLExxx128 Go in the URL and replace "tube" in youtube with "repeat" then hit enter. Or just go to yourepeat (dot) com and search the song there. :)

  • This song just makes me feel so chill, stress at work turns into no worries in seconds

  • this was so fucking epic live.

  • This sounds nothing like the original and supersedes it. Incredible work APC.

  • Maynard for life!

    apc rocks

  • I discovered this album a couple of weeks ago. It's a great album--those who bash don't have a soul. There's always two sides to every issue and A Perfect Circle found the best way to voice their opinions.

  • I love APC and Maynard in general Im trying really hard to like this song...but I love the original so much...that and, its not fitting for 4 white guys and an asian to sing lol...

  • Marvin Gaye cover... just throwing that out there

  • I can't believe Maynard has cancer again:/ hope he makes it through <3!

  • @FigmentOfTheMind maynard has cancer? whered you hear this from?

  • @roboY2K5123 My brother's a HUGE fan, and said he had cancer. I didn't believe him so I googled it and sure enough he doesD; That's why he's making another album soon. Just incase it's his last.

  • @FigmentOfTheMind Good luck with your rumour starting ;)

  • @ISISbandLive Good luck being a cunt:) Maynard is my favourite person in the world ^__^ I wouldn't make rumours about him. However, when he dies, (hopefully he doesn't) we'll see who was right. :)

  • @FigmentOfTheMind Actually, my comment was intended as being in good humour. I didn't think someone would actually post that whilst being serious (He doesn't have cancer, by the way. Try google.) But anyway, positivity with whatever it is you do and hopefully you'll grow out of this "Cunt" calling stuff.

  • @ISISbandLive Good humour isn't calling someone a liar. But anyways, bye.

  • this song is awesome period...

  • This song is very touching... The world should hear this, or be forced to listen... Things would change...

  • War is not the answer, Only love can conquer hate. <3

  • What a fantastic, and wonderful re-imagining of this song. eMotive is my favorite APC album.

  • What is really goning on with this world we are in!

  • everybody loves this song, its so pwerful and uplifting. Ive been listening to this for years, particuarly in the mornins while ridin out and smokin, no1 has ever said they dont like it.

  • I would have loved mayonnaise if it was spelt Maynard !!!

  • maynard has this amazing talent to make his covers an entirely different song. the original version is beautiful, but id have to argue that apc's version is just as amazing.

  • is it just me... or does this whole album deal with war

  • I have to say this planet became a hell since the human's start to came out their caves. what i'm trying to say is look what people are doing to this world. it's almost an disaster. world wars here and there, people are murdering eachother for some lame reason, we also slightly doing damage to the nature and all the animal's around the world. i'm still glad that some people have respect for the nature and everything that exist, imagine how the world will be if everything was so peaceful

  • @guerrillian "almost" a disaster? "slightly" doing damage to nature? It's a miracle we're still alive. This world's riddled with pollution, mindless war, solvable poverty, and curable hunger. Every one of those things has a solution. Every one of us knows what they are. Yet not one of us has the mind to point that out. People write letters, sign petitions, to get people in higher power to listen. They won't. Because their heads are too far up their asses for them to care. ...

  • @guerrillian ... They're drunk on their power. They're too blind to see what we, average people, are painfully aware of every day. I'm fifteen and I know more than they're willing to admit. It's not humans that are the problem; it's greed. Want. Our greed for food makes others starve. Our greed for money makes others poor. Our greed for power makes millions die. We've lost all sense of content. We lost it the day we took success from another. And that is why our world, a once gracious beauty...

  • @1023jessicakelley Greed for food? Did you know USA alone throws away enough wheat A YEAR to feed the world?

    Now I'm all for love, but dont you think there is to many people on the planet? We have people starving and dying of many different things, yet we still have almost 7 billion people. Think if we fed the world, how many more people would there be? 7 billion humans is far too much, and earth will take care of it very soon.

  • @vinneh89

    Why is 7 Billion far too many?

    ~~~~"Robert Kunzig of National Geographic-

    his article, “Population Seven Billion.” He said he did the calculations, and the entire world could fit in Texas if each person were alloted the same average square feet of living space as in New York City. "~~~~

    There is plenty of room...

    ***frontburner.dmagazine(dot)c­om/2011/01/10/entire-world-pop­ulation-could-fit-in-texas/

  • @BrokenCircles The problem is not the room, the problem is what we do to the planet and what we take from it without giving back. Silly.

  • @1023jessicakelley the key is love, for, like a smile, it travels in unseen ways to make very real and very powerful changes. I do not behold in jesus christ the power that i behold in myself and everyone else in the world.

  • @FlipMollc Well said, couldn't agree more

  • @guerrillian ... will end in ashes. If not now, then soon. Sooner than you think.

  • You got to find a way to bring some lovin' here today, who are you to judge us just because our hair is long...my hair is long and also this is amazing. Just like egotorturer said, I hope they are among the few beings left because they would know what to do...or they would know whats going on. Powerful words in this song

  • Amazing cover!

  • Great song and great cover. RIP Marvin Gaye, the world hasn't changed the way you and the others wanted. ONLY LOVE CAN CONQUER HATE

  • A Perfect Circle, when everything begins a new, I hope you are among the few beings left here to make this world what it could be.

  • This band is amazing at covering songs.

  • @Jakeaxemurderer This band is amazing at everything they do.

  • The funny thing about fear is..... When you are ready to face up to your fears... Only then... Will they no longer be there. And no confrontation is necessary.

    The simplest little thing on this planet. Marijuana. Grows naturally upon this earth and serves thousands of uses other than just getting high. From food, to gasoline, to clothing to paper to mind enlightenment.

    Anyone who tells you Marijuana is dangerous (Safest substance in the world) are morons who have been controlled unknowingly.

  • @Zuklar like the video to karma police radio head lol

  • @Zuklar I like the song, but however I disagree with you. Marijuana is such a gateway drug, yes the drug itself is usually harmless. (But can affect some to where they really shouldn't be driving and such) People go on and try other drugs as a result because Marijuana is so 'great' and safe, perhaps what you hear about the other drugs is wrong too? There's a whole thought process to it.

  • @LluviaWolf No you're wrong people who do hard drugs will do anything they can get their hands on. Marijuana is not a gateway drug. That term is propaganda any hows

  • @Tab2120 No, you're wrong. It's a gateway drug and I've seen it personally, people who have never thought of drugs end up smoking Marijuana, and then go on to other drugs for more of a "high" Quit talking when you have no personal experience, the term is not propaganda, thanks and shut up.

  • @LluviaWolf I have plenty of experience douche. You sound like you live in a church basement taking orders from a nun. Did you see it on an after school special about drugs?

  • @Tab2120 Church? Right, thanks for making assumptions you hypocritical dimwit. Graduated a long time ago, look down in the comments.. Someone suggesting trying SHROOMS and LSD, you got proven wrong right fucking there.

  • @LluviaWolf do you know the difference between an assumption and sarcasm? I got proven wrong because someone eats mushrooms and drops acid? People who do hard drugs usually are people who are interested in self exploration, those who get addicted usually have some emotional damage or are suffering from some sort of pathology. Bi polar people tend to medicate with drugs. My point being, the gateway drug theory is bs propaganda.

  • @Tab2120 The only way there is a "gateway" is because weed is illegal and your dealer don't give a fuck you're doing so he'll try to sell what he can sell and don't give a fuck if you're on crack or heroin, if anything it's better for him cause than he makes more. So I totally agree with you.

  • @LluviaWolf hmm, thats reasonable enough. Some people just shouldn't ever be exposed to any kind of drug. But that would be a perfect world. Let's just leave it at, what works for some, doesn't work for everyone.

  • EAT MAGIC MUSHROOMS! (LSD or DMT works too but are more powerful)

    They can remove ANY social conditioning you have received, Even shit you didn't know you were being tricked into believing.

    Don't get scared of the propaganda of "A bad trip". They do exist. But they are purely from the person under the effects being sad. Usually this comes from the mushrooms inside of you "talking to you" and telling you all of your deepest fears and problems that you must face up to in order to be free.

  • @Zuklar Namaste, my image, you are enlightened.

    Any experience with synthesis of dmt?

  • @FlipMollc No :(, every weekend I have off, I devote at least an hour trying to find someone who will sell LSD or DMT. Until I find some, I will stick with my herbs and fungus :)

  • Comment removed

  • Doubt any of y'all will come back and read this, but I agree with Iruelthe11. Israel and the Arab nations have been fighting for centuries. For some (not all) it's all they know and care about.  When you have generations of people that from birth are raised to believe their purpose is to be at war with another...you can't change that. Unfortunately, that's part of the ugly scenario going on in that region, and politics in the name of religion, not religion itself, is responsible.

  • This cover is fucking awesome!! I gotta admit.. I like it better than the original...

  • A perfect circle would never leave my cd player, until the release of this album. Now i bearly listen to them.

  • A Marvin Gaye cover ? Much Respect to APC

  • Really good album..... excellent covers!!

  • love this shit 2

  • whts the last song in this album?

  • @XilianX2010 Fiddle and the Drum

  • Really important question y do u make the video longer than the song?

  • I love how the album cover shows Los Angeles being destroyed. 

  • @Stinkfist43 u say thats a good thing? and also seeing peace destroyed?!

  • @XilianX2010 I am not saying its a good thing. I just like the cover because I hate L.A.

  • @Stinkfist43 o lol srry

  • okay two songs on the album are theirs, "Passive" and "Count bodies like sheep" the rest are covers not all of them

  • Favorite song on the album. I think I said this on another one, too, though. Hahaha.

    This album is amazing.

  • its kinda got that mirrors edge intro song other than the drum during the intro to this song

  • Great song :D

  • the BEST compilation of covers I've heard in my life: eMOTIVE

  • 8 People who Disliked this video are probably George Bush Followers, Thumbs up if you agree.

  • WHOEVER DOESN'T LIKE THIS SONG HAS NO SOUL

  • Most music is open to interpretation. I hold this song close to my heart as my mom is bipolar, last time I saw my dad was about 5 years ago after a nasty fist fight, and my little brother has been into hard drugs. I also used to have long hair and often consider the terrible things going on in the world. i do not hear the name Vietnam in here once, which grants this song great longevity and gives it to far more people. Love this song.

  • @deadpooh this is a cover of a marvin gaye song... sounds totally different and amazing but same lyrics

  • @deadpooh We are closer than you think -.-

  • @xRainbowxTroutx2013x Love is a sonofabitch eh? We will survive though. Hang in there friend =)

  • @deadpooh Ya hopefully I went through a lot in my past and I hope it stops and only gets better from here...new chapter..

  • @xRainbowxTroutx2013x Well, it seems to me there is always going to be some kind of bullshit going on. The way I look at it now is that it's all just a matter of perspective. There are people out there who would kill to have my problems instead of theirs, you know?

  • hahaha dumb azz!! its Kool song.. stop analysing it---

  • tool's like 100 times better, but they are good by and by.this is their best album with "counting bodies" being the best by faaar...

  • @crackerbarrelboy0 i agree...and then puscifer... -_0 ugh...

  • i alway took this song to be about death in the streets. fathers not being there for their kids. mothers dying from drugs. i know the lyrics talk about war but music is what you want it to be so to me this song is about taking care of each other and a community looking for the interest of its inhabitants. this version makes me feel sad about our world

  • I try to calm down in order to fall asleep while listening to this in the darkness... But it's so good, it makes my heart pound like crazy, my arm hair go up and I just can't stop thinking about crazy shit... Can't believe it

  • I think this is the best track in their entire CD! :)

  • the best

  • I'm really glad there are interpretations of songs out there. When I feel like listening to Marvin Gaye's version I am generally feeling hopeful, but sometimes I am feeling softer, not in the mood to dance, just in the mood to listen to a song with the same message quietly. I turn this on and think, *whew* for the people who make interpretations or covers of songs even though others might think they're crazy and worse off for doing so.

  • keep da faith boi!

  • Haha the name "A Perfect Circle" is just  nice :)

  • mmmm... A Perfect Circle <3

  • addicted to this song

  • maynard es un maestro!!!!

  • @mariomarin01 Más como un dios!

  • @mariomarin01  Maynards teacher for those who dont know

  • @mariomarin01 totalmente de acuerdo contigo ! es un genio !

  • The drums in this song are great. they are simple yet have so much character

  • Think Maynard wanted to make covers of these songs with A Perfect Circle cos this is the message he wants to send to all of us. I appreciate him for that. And these cover versions truly kick some major butt!

  • oops thisnameisuniq. My bad.

  • is this whole album all covers? cuz they have 3 on there....

  • Passive and Counting Bodies are not covers.

  • that's "13th step"

  • Nah, I have the CD myself XD, Pet is on 13th step. Passive is track 5 on eMOTIVe and Counting Bosides Like Sheep to the Rhythm of the War Drums is track 10 =).

  • Some, just done for TODAY. Our world is far different than it was then, I'm afraid. Kinda dark and unsteady now. I see the changes and the way Maynard arranged these re-makes matches how things are now. We're swirlin the drain, my friend.

  • most are covers but re-done by them counting bodies is a remix or continuation of Pet from thirteenth step and passive a new song

  • @XxRipStitchxX Counting Bodies is a continuation of Pet. and Passive is not all that "new". It was made by tapeworm, an old side project Maynard had with Trent Reznor.

  • Ich liebe den Song!!

  • 40,000 more troops to afghanistan...

  • stfu

  • :o (

  • is this the guy from ashes divide?

  • playing guitar yes.. the legend Maynard James Keenan is singing

  • thanks, they just sound similar thats all.

  • actually i think it might be him singing.. i am confused now! its great either way

  • deaf?

  • @innerXrage No he is from Tool

  • chido

  • all of this album sounds like its supposed to be a personal stash for the band to love but its too weird sounding for everyone else

  • LOL@ the lyrics in the video description. "Brother, brother, brother, there's far t..."

    OMG, my stomach hurts.

  • lol

  • its not maynard u retard do your homework

  • ummm last time I checked Maynard was the lead singer of the band. I'd think that even if he didn't lay the vocal tracks of the song it would still be up to standard. If you think this track is good then you deserve a swift kick in your undescended testicles prick.

  • Comment removed

  • uh, this is maynard tard

  • I like the feeling Marvin makes more, but this is still a pretty good adaption though.

  • Yeah, on the album I got their cover of Imagine. I should probably get it.

  • y dont they get back together and make new awesome music...a new album would be so badass!!!!!!

  • beautiful,loving,only love can kill evil,God is Love ,God bless us all<thank you father.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • dont listen to the god haters we will shed our earthly bodies soon and be with jesus apon his return

  • THIS IS A MARVIN GAYE COVER.....

    LOL to all the people arguing about what Maynard is trying to say.

    Its a damn Marvin Gaye cover. Its an anti war protest song some Vietnam....Look it up.

  • @bkm72 hhahahhaa owned

  • @bkm72 haha i was wondering why the lyrics to this song sounded so god damn familiar

  • @bkm72 this whole CD is covers.

  • @unityofchoas LOL...Not too many people know that. kinda sad actually.

  • @bkm72 ik its really sad.. especially cuz i knew this when i was 11.

  • @bkm72 lolz

  • @bkm72 if Islam didnt hate and the whole juedaic system was flexible we wouldn't need soldiers from all nations needlessly being sacrificed for a JEW Arab war. just my two cents

  • @landser01 Judaism IS flexible. Israel isn't, and not for a lack of reasons. But Israel isn't Judaism. Don't confuse a state with a religion. Same goes for the opposite side of this equation,

  • OMG I LOVE A PERFECT CIRCLE!! I have a t-shirt with the logo yayz

  • I have an APC tattoo
