A Perfect Circle - Weak and Powerless (Unedited)

[NoteBeats]

The first A Perfect Circle song I ever heard, I can remember I lisend to the song over and over again, I have been a fan ever since :)

[Roughnegg]

ok! I shall tell how I understood the meaning of this clip:

The girl is tossing serpents into deep whole,where the big insects are tearing them, I thought it's some kind of sacrifice, but then i saw she's healing, so the insects are serving as her surgers ;)

It's an allegory, but in our (simple) life it would be equal to great soul lost, for example, as if person ldumped you and all the things that's left is pain in your heart, and you trying to kill the pain with new people,friends etc.

[NinjaAngel619]

this song and vid has so much art and passion and meaning its just plain awsome

[Metalgazer]

lose the ghetto nails and she'd be sexy as hell

[ReenaChama]

This video will show what it means to you.. Some people may see aspects of the video such as the nudity, and nothing more. One person commented it to be symbolism for drug addiction, and another person that it was about filling a void.. That's what's great about art, that it can be anything :)

[myrese99]

Did she like just fall in the hole where she had put all the critters in?  Because if she did I don't think she is getting out.

[nowXyouseeme]

Great song & the video fits very well. The song is somber, but still passionate. However, it's unfortunate that there are so many ignorant people out there who aren't able to perceive this video for its artistic qualities beyond shallow reasoning such as "pause here," or, "nice rack."

i love this song,

[MissCrazyAndGoth]

@pawnshopr You are so immature...

[pawnshopr]

@MissCrazyAndGoth your username makes you seem immature.How ironic?

[MissCrazyAndGoth]

@pawnshopr I am immature. I think i have a right. Seeing as i'm like..14?

[pawnshopr]

@MissCrazyAndGoth In a sense age has nothing to do with how mature u are. People(celebs,musicians,friend­s and family) all influence you by shining their personalities on you and slowly shape who you really are. If you listen to the narrow-minded, feeble minds of self-absorbed,childish people constantly;then you'll become ignorant and immature.

[losangeleskid86]

@pawnshopr thus, you are immature.

[pawnshopr]

pause @2:06

[FallingFromTheLight]

@pawnshopr thats what i like to see

[claudiofullxd]

@pawnshopr Ahueonaoo !! aprecia el arte ctm

[tough5hit]

not gona lie, that chick has a nice rack

[penguinily02]

I love this song....the way he expresses how his addiction with heroin has him feeling "weak and powerless". I hadn't heard this song in ages.

[walkergolen]

i like this one better than the edited one and i dont know why?

[zizi0928]

Fogyasszátok egészséggel,óje.

[Bl0odVomit]

I think that a lot of the reason censorship is around is because people are jelous. That is why they have to go out of their ways to prevent others from showing and expresing themselfs, even though none of the matirial deamed "pornagraphic" effects them in any way besides the fact that it makes them feel insecure with themselfs, and there-by ruin great art

[Brittonsp]

@Bl0odVomit sadly there are a lot of sickos who get off on nudity regardless of the context and it is people like these that we don't want to encourage

[Bl0odVomit]

@Brittonsp But that is how those certain people see the art. Not that I "get off" to all nudity, but it depends on the individual's meturity levle, overall perspection of the art, be it seexual or not, and how they use it. And I don't think that it is right, or anyone's plac to do things such as lable them as "sickos" just because the see or act diferently around nutity and pornography

[Jofrisper]

@Brittonsp There are a lot of "sickos who get off" from numerous things and situations present in everyday life. This does not mean that all of these things should be censored. Hell, sometimes I get a woody sitting in the bus or train, ban public transport then? Fuck no, man. People like you are the main reason society is so uptight.

[losangeleskid86]

@Jofrisper thus, you sicko.

[MStyles9099]

[mattro44]

I hadn't heard this song in a while, this is a damn good song, thanks for uploading. This one by far has the best sound quality.

[SOADVSSOAD]

Nudity Is An Expression Of Art. So Why Should It Be Censored? I Mean, If You Look At The Amendments In The Constitution, It Saids We Have Rights To Express Our Selfs. And Even During The Renaissance, Was The Beginning of Realism And Of The Beauty Of The Human Body...I Can Keep Going But The Point Is...Let It Be!

......Damn You Fcc And Censorship.

[Narcjasia]

►to popeto87

thanks dear for the beautiful interpretation! I think is very appropriate and right.But moreover this is a song about pain, a void to fill, it speaks of an ego that in searching to manifest himself!○○○

The beautiful video contains a subconscious message that touches us in a deep and it means: I am . I'm naked in front of myself...

[popeto87]

to narcjasia

I tottaly agree with your inerpretation. You said it much better than i have.

[popeto87]

Why would any1 sane remove video that tells you not to do drugs?? Couse that hole is a vein and the "dragons" (lizards) are the drug. Every following lizard is bigger. It shows how you allways need more than the last time. But eventually you will fall in the hole that drug was digging for you.

BTW. China white is a sinonim for a type of heroin.

Great job APC!

[Suberorocks619]

A Perfect Circle has some of the coolest videos I've seen in a while.........Seriously it's Fucking Epic

[xalisragernok]

Nudity should not be as taboo as it is in the states. This is a wonderful music video. APC (& Maynad) puts their souls into all their music. 5*

[MrJoeCage]

insane, isn't it? the powers that be will show people being blown to bits, tortured, etc. on network tv with a slight disclaimer, but the beauty of the human body? perish the thought. makes no sense whatsoever. as a parent, and an artist, i know which i'd rather have my kids exposed to.

[renzolikescheez]

1:58 Perfect shot of her beauty.

[renzolikescheez]

you've got to admit... that Tanya chick is gorgeous.

[Narcjasia]

beautifullll 5*♥♦

[DarknessEyes93]

This song is awesome, and so is A Perfect Circle.

<3 Grace

[XECuteAble]

I love this video, my favourite part is at the end when things come round full circle and all the creatures shes put away are waiting for in the hole she clawed into the earth. "While I dig in seach of china...."

[Bakaxemo]

Love this video! :}

[angeloftheblood]

a little creepy but was really good.

[Beshimi]

thanks for putting this up. if it starts getting more views, youtube will unfortunately find it and remove it, though. even the edited version is flagged by some moron.

[Lazo089]

I think that it is ridiculous that nudity, even in art, is taken down on youtube but videos showing people being killed in real life are not touched.

[AshleySingleAgain]

I agree. It's absolutely ridiculous. 

Oh & i absolutely LOVE this song.

[Jofrisper]

@Lazo089 No. Go, read a book.

[antichristck]

@Lazo089 And what could be the problem if some childrens see a nude human body, why is everyone trying to hide everything from us when we're about to learn from the world and nature they don't want uncoming humans to grow undertanding what's arround them, undertanding and loving nature as part of them as humans, they just want them, us, everyone to fear, fear everything, and don't dare to think just obey!, if we can't even see our bodys as btfl as they're instead of an evil thing were fucked :S

[IMARenegade]

[draco133]
