  • Nothing like pulling yourself in two and seeing whats truely there...may scare the hell out of you..

  • 101110 && 10

  • This song is so beautiful.

  • I like how the uploader explained the meaning of the song by giving info about that philosopher. It can be very hard to understand what tool is saying in they're videos

  • @RedPhantomAI too bad it was all bs

  • ...The problem with this whole concept is that everyone has the same number of chromosomes. Aborigines here in Australia do not have two less chromosomes. What kind of f'ing idiot believes that?

  • @Antman261 yeah thats true. everyone has 46 chromosomes + the X and Y chromosome.

  • @Antman261 It is the composition of the chromosomes not the number that is being compared here. Our composition is 44&2. The Aboriginals are 42&2. It is not a numerical cataloging system.

  • @XA55A55INX 44 + 2 = 46.

    42 + 2 = 44

    If there were such a vast genetic difference indigenous and non-indigenous Australians wouldn't be able to have children together. Obviously this isn't the case. There's VERY little difference genetically aside from a few climate related adaptations. And no difference in brain chemistry/structure.

  • @Antman261 COMPOSITION. What is so hard to understand about that word? Yes there is very little difference. That's not the point. It changes how you see reality not how you procreate. It is not a vast difference in this case. It is not a numerical coding system, it is measuring composition not how many of a kind is present or the lack thereof.

  • :43 Puts me in a magical place. Mmm them goosebumps

  • i cannot express just how amazing this song is... it is literally not possible to listen to it loud enough!!

  • sic dude just sic!

    

  • YEEEEAHHHH TONIGHT BICHESSS

  • @JesusTimes dude! where are they playing!?

    

  • IM GOIN TO THE CONCERT TOMORRRRROOOOOWWWWW!!!! PUMPED

  • @Suffication94 today is the day mang, happy tool day :)

  • @Suffication94 where are they playing??

  • CAPTAIN AMERICA!!!!!

  • i had16 transfusions. my lungs filled with blood, and they told me that a had damaged my cerebellum. inasmuch as what i encountered, i lost track of time. when i finally was released from 8 mos. rehab, i didn't know who i was, where i was, and didn't recognize any of my family members. so i clammed up and waited to hear their names mentioned. i was clueless as to what was going on until i saw a building that i had halfway painted, then it all came back to me. i'm still not the same.

  • @jacklazzell Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. That was really beautiful. Scary, yes. But still very beautiful. I've had schizophrenia since childhood, so I understand the unsettling confusion associated with questioning what constitutes reality. It's terrifying at times, but I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.

  • elevate your consciousness & become Mentally Endowed

  • Yay

  • the best band ever no one can ever touch them

  • Nasty little Jeff.... still trolling....shameful

  • I used to be normal.

    But then I took two extra chromosomes to my DNA.

  • when people ask me how im doing i answer "just wallowing in my own confused and insecure delusions" and then they call me a freak and walk away confused.

  • @mooA7Xbaaaa Idiots

  • @ShaunLiving nevermind. this made me realize that some people with 42+2 have access to the internet lmfao.

  • reminds me of my stint with a coma back in '05. 45 days of hallucinations, nightmares, bad trips, and in/out of consciousness. could be good, could be bad, but it was sooooo real!

  • @jacklazzell

    care to explain what you encountered?

  • @ShaunLiving....just disable the damn comments already hahhaa.

  • This song always seemed to represent an Ayuahasca trip to me.

  • This is fucking amazing. If you have half of a brain, and use at least 12%, you understand!!!

  • @TheDs365247 most of the philosophy about stepping through your shadow to achieve peast was made by a lsd addict who fled to canada from kent state after the war in vietnam broke out. the other guy was carl jung he cool

  • your mama loves this song, thanks

  • I'm pretty sure "jointhemodernworld" is a capitalist.

  • @perrottafamily1 Eh, Capitalism has nothing to do with what music you like. I'm a capitalist and love this song.

  • @VideoMask93 same

  • The song is hot but melchizadek 46&2theory was proven wrong a long time ago ALL humen organisms have 44&2 no tribe or any human has ever had 42&2 and no one will ever have 46&2. Primates have 46&2 monkeys, humans evolved from them..so what happen how did we loose a chromosome? We didnt two fused together to make human chromosome #2 we move down from 46&2 to 44&2 because it was a better set up u can see human are alot more smarter then a monkey, songs concept is wrong except for carl jung shadow

  • Everyone...from here on out, just give this clown (@jointhemodernworld) the middle-finger. And since this poor clown doesn't possess opposable thumbs, let's all provide them down for this troll.

  • go take a look at transhumanism, resident evil movies(concepts) this song is def related!!!!!!!!!

  • BEST SONG EVER

  • Research if you feel the need; enlightenment is there to be found if you look deep enough! 

  • Thanks for explaining this...now I can research it further

  • @jointhemodernworld You must have (heard) a different song than myself. This song is about life; normal/everyday; finding happiness with-in it, and the possibilities that lie ahead of you if you choose to search! Basically stated; you can choose to be happy with what you have or you can try to find the happiness elsewhere; either way - in the end it will never be good enough unless you deal with what is inside of you and ahead of you, cause you are your only obstacle to happiness!

  • @mkay217 I'm concerned for all you Tool fans actually worshiping self-indulged nothingness rolled into this huge ball of Maynard's crap.

  • @jointhemodernworld Let me guess.. Jesus saves?

  • @jointhemodernworld Yeah, I'm pretty sure your username speaks for itself.

  • @jointhemodernworld Why be concerned for those you do not know? TOOL fans' opinions obviously differ from yours, and if you can't accept and respect peoples' different opinions, you should be concerned for yourself before anyone else. If you don't like the music, you should be listening to what you like!

  • @mkay217 Very good way of putting things. So there IS a good message here that i think we all can relate to.

  • @jointhemodernworld Obvious troll is obvious

  • @jointhemodernworld Interesting how you dismiss the magnificent instrumental work. Instrumental skill has always been the forte of progressive rock musicians, and lyrics tend to come secondary to that.

  • this song is genius. how do you think of this stuff? haha

  • I. Choose to Live and to

    Lie. Kill and give and to

    Die. Learn and love and to

    Do. What it takes to step through.

  • @stmichelob that was high school girls poetry

  • One does not simply avoid reading the comments on youtube....

  • all you fuck tards have no clue what tool is about so go kill yourselves

  • i like tools, i use them at work but i dont under stand this video has nothing to do with tools just cool music

  • @MrDr650  do society a favor slit your own throat

  • @bokorbez do you need a hug?

  • @MrDr650 , but you're wrong, they have to do with tools of the consciousness, not sure if your tool box is full or empty, but I suggest you have a look.

  • @sublimy99 I like to think of the tool box as half full.

  • TOOL..great fucking band,hope to see em in charlotte in a few weeks

  • So fucking high. So fucking awesome song, don't y'a agree?

  • Aenima ! nuff said

  • That's 6:04 mins too long for me seeing as they blow.

  • @jointhemodernworld i cant remember the big secret, but i did shit my bed

  • @jointhemodernworld Then go jam to Beiber...he may let you blow him

  • @uhohisharted hahaha

  • EN SZERETLEK, MOJOM

  • peter pan should be listening to this song lol

  • You got some of the lyrics wrong, but you totally nailed the principles.

  • I used to listen to trashy rap

    But then I took a Tool album to the ears

  • Second That !

    a Tool Album right into the ear hole !

    You must have the 46 + 2 chromosome.....

  • @Kombatkill best thing ive heard EVER

  • i want a apc album i like the softer stuff from keenan..

  • @Xicedragonnx I can help you with this. click out of this page (not sure why you are here if you want an APC song) type in a song by APC, look at the recommended videos.

  • My family kept talking while i was playing this, STFU and listen to the awesome.

  • Can't wait for the new album

  • man perfect video gj!!!!! congratulations from greece....we <3 tool

  • i saw tool was i was 17. it was my first big concert. keenan got up there and put on the best showing, grinding away on the stage with a HUGE hard-on...i will never forget that!!!!

  • 46&2 just ahead of all of us.

  • Whats the third type of person?

  • @soakedbearrd what we will hopefully become. its like seeing a dimension that we dont belong to.. we cant contemplate another dimension until we see it.

  • bass line is sooooooooooo sick

  • if you sit down to play a Tool song on your acoustic guitar, you'll more than likely find yourself (a) playing a mid-80s Megadeth-style bass line or (b) alternating between two or three tedious barre chords that are right next to each other.

  • @jointhemodernworld if you compare Tool's music to a megadeth bass line, than either you are a beginner tablature player who has no clue, or you are simply a fucking retard who has no clue. The nuances and time signatures of Tool are so complex, the best cover bands ever for Tool can't get it right. What inbreb fucking mental lapse makes you think you have the wherewithall to judge this music in this way? Make a video with you playing whatever against a Tool song and make your point. Or STFU.

  • @stmichelob Most of their songs are boring minor keys based. The guitarist plays a few boring arpeggios here and there, with no strong sense of melody. Their songs are based on boring studio overdubs.Most 16 year olds can play most of Tools music.

  • @jointhemodernworld The fact that 16 year olds can play their music has nothing to do with the credibility of their music. Also, simply explaining what parts of music theory apply to their songs yields no value in any discussion about the credibility of their music. One last thing, other people have different opinions than your own, learn to accept that and you'll be a better person.

  • @Blaine465 There’s only one kind of Tool fan. The Tool fan who thinks that being a Tool fan lets them into some big secret that nobody else gets. They think that only a select few posses the secret Tool decoder ring.

  • @jointhemodernworld That's your opinion and it's quite a laughable one. You are obviously trolling, no need to entertain you further.

  • @Blaine465 By replying to him you just entertained him, fagort.

  • @lolwatfu Nice try, troll harder, kid.

  • @jointhemodernworld Someone is mad they don't have a decoder ring.

  • @jointhemodernworld I think it's more that they actually see into themselves a little more by listening to the lyrics. Like people are ignorant (such as yourself) enough to realize that they are wasting their lives by not living them to the full extent and being the amazing people that we are meant to be and that God (a.k.a. ourselves) put here.

  • @jointhemodernworld Shut up dick head.

  • @jointhemodernworld Aww. You seem a bit bitter & sad. As a nightclub bouncer I would probably let you in out of pity; because you seem the sexually frustrated type and I would like to do my part for society by curing your little bitchy ass of depravity.

  • @CorRomeister Tool is the first band ever named after its target demographic.

  • @jointhemodernworld Maybe then you won't live your life on the internet by going from one tool video to the next with full intention of bashing it.

  • @jointhemodernworld Not everything that is good and art is difficult.

  • @jointhemodernworld u have obviously never heard tool live to say its all boring studio overdubs. a large majority of the sound they make is played with actual instruments, even the drums that u hear are actually being played by their drummer, yes it comes from an electronic drum but a drum it is, not an overdub done in the studio.Cant believe i replied to this fool, his favorite artist is probably Lil Wayne. Probably also thinks Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd is garbage as well

  • @jointhemodernworld

    YOU SUCK!!!

    Thats why Danny is one of the top 10 drummers in the world....

    go learn something...you trolling troll!

  • @nmistique he is un-believable. how long did he study tribal drumming for?

  • @H4RM0N1C5 tablas are not tribal, they're north Indian classical. much more organized than any tribal music, or even western theory.

  • @jointhemodernworld But most 16 year olds couldn't have crafted their music as cleverly.  I don't think I would call them boring whatsoever either. More like hypnotic.

  • @stmichelob Also, to you... Tools songs aren't that complex in terms of time signatures.

  • Every single song is the same and drones on forever

  • @jointhemodernworld naughty naughty Koolaid :(

  • @jointhemodernworld Worst comment ever? Possibly.

  • @jointhemodernworld <-----Most uneducated fuck ever? Quite possibly.

  • @Roqy96 Toolfags certainly give off that aura of "If you don't like TOOL you must be a musically inept moron with a middle school education," Element. That's the way all the posts about this band come off.

  • @jointhemodernworld well that doesnt mean they're a terrible band. it means you need to open your eyes a little bit and look past what every fuckface on youtube says to you (ironic yes but still true)

  • You know if people think the comments ruin a video, there's always that option to simply avoid reading the comments...

  • @Greenslime300 No shit man, like they're not even displayed in the first place unless you scroll down!

  • This has nothing to do with the video, but please take a second to listen Obama, the president of the U.S, has just passed a bill saying any existing authority has limitless power to use the military to detain it's own people forever. FOREVER. Obama promised not to sign the bill before the election. And now we are what seems to be a few years from reaching Nazi Germany status. So please now more then ever please help wherever you are from in OCCUPYING THE WORLD. Now or never. sorry for the spam.

  • @fecism1 Wrong place to post this, but you are somewhat right. NDAA it's called I believe which extends the already gross power of the patriot act. Police state is coming to a place near you, but bread and circus caught my eye.

  • why can ti find tool on itunes!?!?

  • @SilentBud420 b/cTool & APC do not post ANY of their music on iTunes.Maynard doesn't like the quality of MP3 (too compressed) as opposed to vinyl or CD &he's always been outspoken about file sharing-not that iTunes IS-but....He also likes people to buy the CD in hopes they'll will to the album in the order it was meant to be listened to.He DOES have Puscifer on iTunes & recently stated that CDs were"outdated pieces of junk that get broken & thrown away-so you may see them on iTunes soon. :)

  • TOOL FUCKING SUCKS!

    Now that I got your attention TOOL is the greatest band in the world.

    +1

  • Shatters my soul every time.

  • Amazing job with this video and explantion Shaun. This band is issuing prophecy, no more or less. So much has been said about Tool from both sides of the aisle, but the fact remains that this is evolutionary music, if you don't get it now, wait 100 years and maybe you will!!!

  • watch listen and STFU? and all the comments about lyrical genius and best rock band? talk about a bunch of tools and hipsters that need to get out and listen to more music. there are better bands than this. especially all the new music that is out today, they all sound the same and have no style. and they all have terrible lyrics. this is shit music.

  • This song needs to be in an art museum.

  • Maynard is a lyrical genius

  • maynard the vinter is absolutely the best rock and roll person ever

  • Thumbs up if you found the Number 23 in this song lol 46 / 2 = O.o holly shit awesomenessssssss

  • Ripoff of "Home" by Dream Theater.

  • @MIKEPEARTNOY Ænima was recorded and released three years before Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes from a Memory.

  • @MIKEPEARTNOY Chagrin89 is right. This isn't a ripoff from Dream Theater, the main guitar riff from Home was taken from Forty Six & 2. John even gave credit to Tool as being the inspiration for the whole Metropolis Pt. 2 album. Look it up before posting things you know nothing about.

  • CANT WAIT TO SEE TOOL IN LONDON!! WOOT WOOT!!!!!!!

  • @Slybacon19 Lucky ass..

  • There's something hypnotic about this song.

  • @aky19832001

    Yeah, that's what I was thinking. That's why I believe it is one of the greatest songs of all time.

  • Jeff, Jeff, sorry little poopoohead...

  • that would be fucking awesome if you could step through the shadow

  • Perhaps the greatest song of all time, and a worthy graphical representation of it. Well done.

  • if you dont like tool go somewhere else fool

  • Man, this sucks. I want this on my iPod...

  • @BahamutINFINITY Youtube Downloader + AOL Audio Extractor if using a shuffle :)

  • @BahamutINFINITY than go buy the Ænima CD upload to your computer and you're good to go! The whole CD/Album (I have both the CD and the Vinyl) are amazing- you won't regret buying it - even go to one of those used exchange record stores - or get it new- you will not regret the purchase. Every song on there is amazing.

  • This video goes well with snowflakes

  • All Tool videos on You Tube shouldn't allow comments. Watch, listen, and STFU

  • @satch1979 Nah . Tool is overated and needs a bringdown to them. Actually they are one notch above skank..

  • @satch1979 So then that means your comment shouldn't be on this video. I've had enough of people saying that their shouldn't be any comments. You don't have to read the comments, so don't do it then. You'd think that some of these TooL fans would be a little smart.

  • @metalwolf515 Have you ever actually read some of the comments? Most of the time it turns into people try acting hard threatening each other. If you want to deconstruct aspects of a song or have a rational discussion, that's one thing. How you get from talking about a song like this and eventually get to talking about someone's mom or telling somebody else to kill themselves is fucked up. Everybody is a tough guy in the safety of the internet.

  • @satch1979 Some people do actually talk about the songs but then there are those that talk about killing each other or fucking each others moms. But still you don't have to read the comments if you don't want to so don't bitch about it.

  • K but I didn't think I died man, u come out the trip perfectly the same before u go in it. It only lasted me about 4 or 5 minutes. But it was insane. I was scared at first. But after a few I accepted it and just embrassed what iwas seeing. It is intense and I do not suggest it to anyone who is not mentally prepared, because well, you have to smoke it to really understand

  • Who can prove this dipshit Tool band is any good live at all?

  • @snaredrum110 I can.

  • @JesusFknChrist666 Start proving it then . Nobody believes they are any good but you so far. BTW nice name fag..

  • @snaredrum110 What's wrong? You run out of tampons?

  • @JesusFknChrist666 Change your name gayboy. You insult God .. Get back in the closet where yiou belong..

  • @snaredrum110 The ones pointing the finger, for the most part, are the ones guilty of the accusation. So homosexual, do you need a translation? Anyone that reads this can safely determine for themselves that, at this moment you're probably wearing a skirt, lipstick, and fuck-me pumps.

  • @JesusFknChrist666 And why would I waste my Fucking time being concerend with what you think the god that you believe in will be insulted? It has no bearing on, and is not relevant, to my life. OK, Fuck, I lied, god is great. He left my house 20 min. ago, when he finished Sucking My Dick, while I was responding to your puerile comment. He sucks a GREAT dick. Have a Great Day.

  • @JesusFknChrist666 Fuck off satan ass sniffer. How's blowing the demon 24/7 working out for ya. Huh chumpy? Oh BTW Portnoy is skankmeat. I've got a 13 year old nephew that skomes him already..hahahaha

  • @snaredrum110 I would never cheat on your mother. Such virulence is a symptom of extreme ass-gape, which you seem to enjoy contrary to the pain. Did you know "skomes", translated from french, means: To administer a Rim Job.? If you're insinuating Portnoy is gay, I would not know. Go ask him if he needs a blow job, if he knocks your Fuckin' teeth out, that means he's straight, if he knocks them out when you're done, that means you suck a lousy cock, and he just fixed the problem

  • @snaredrum110 edit skomes to smokes..but I think the God mocker already knew that.

  • @snaredrum110

    no one cares.

  • @formusicplaylist1 You care along with everybody else..
