  • sweet thanks for the vid cant wait for Hampton in Feb

  • Maybe my favorite Tool song of all time. I'll be at their inaugural show in less than 2 weeks!

  • I got 2 see this LIVE in 1996 in Charlotte at Grady Cole Center.

  • is it weird i want this song play at my funeral?

  • @nsali30 Not at all. I'd prefer parabol/a or disposition/reflection/triad tho.

  • lol, I have a bootleg VHS of this show I bought from some random pirate site back around '98. Too bad I don't have a VHS player to play it on anymore... :(

  • anyone who hates on Tool simply doesn't have an adapted taste to good music. They're easily the most incredible band with 4 genius members and not to mention almost every song has been created to omit multiple meanings, leaving it up for every individual's interpretation. NOW THAT IS GENIUS

  • @Esubs2 very true but this song has a very clear meaning

  • All haters go listen to hooker with a peanis thats what maynard has to say to you... Buddy

  • Unlike most of you guys I was actually at this show, and I thought it was really boring. My friend liked it, but of course most tool fans have this feeling of "higher being" at Tool concerts, as Maynard is so fucking wasted on acid that he doesn't even realize he's playing a concert and basically just whines random sentences that fans somehow consider deep. Fans like him also like to think that the lyrics have a deep spiritual meaning only they can comprehend, which is hilariously pathetic.

  • @GodHatesPortugal seeing as you're too fat to even make it outside, Mrs Grape (what's eating gilbert grapes fat whore mother = you scrubfuck), shocker you made it to one of these, and the lard possibly permitted you to even hear Maynard. Take a hike douche cleaner. Only non shit-stains can truly hear Maynard

  • @GodHatesPortugal You're seriously & blatantly misinformed like in a tonedeaf kind of way that you can't help. As far as I've heard Maynard has been against drugs for a long time - if he's ever done hallucinogens it's probably on rare occasions & I highly doubt during shows. I don't know how you can't understand what he's saying at least most of the time but a majority of his songs have multiple meanings.

  • no tool song is about one meaning unless maynard states otherwise. so quit trolling and keep your interpretations to yourself unless your just sharing your interpretation

  • the song is about L Ron Hubbard, its actually putting him and his views of scientology down. the band members are all opposed to scientology

  • which instrument is the intro?

  • Anybody that thinks this song is about Jesus is not really a TOOL fan. It's about Bill Hicks faking his own death just like Andy Kaufman. And it's NOT BLASPHEMY!! Bill Hicks considered himself a martyr of the people and for the people,this song is in dedication to him and has nothing whatsoever to do with Christianity. You can disagree to your trolling black little hearts content,I'm not here to argue, just stating facts.

  • @MrKozmo33 anybody who thinks this song isn't open to interpretation isn't a tool fan. Besides, you could say that every aspect of the album had something to do with bill hicks, while also saying the album had nothing to do with him and that the sound bite of him during one of his stand-up performances was just a coincidence and you would still be correct. So, maybe Bill Hicks was Jesus. While we are on the subject of faking deaths and all…

  • @MrKozmo33 *facepalm* the song's dedicated to Bill Hicks, not about him. It is widely accepted that this song is about fake messiahs like L Ron Hubbard etc etc

  • @freeoww

    Thx. Bill Hicks died. Even if he didn't, the lyrics make zero sense in that context.

  • @MrKozmo33 Many Tool songs have multiple meanings & just because someone doesn't know the primary meaning of a song doesn't mean they're not really a fan, doucebag! Considering at least a few of the lyrics of this song, I highly doubt they're referring to Bill Hicks (at least all the way through), as it would be very disrespectful to say the least. The song obviously has reference to jesus & the cross & Tool has a history of blaspheming christianity.

  • @Boxcutter7 man... don't even bother trying to explain such things to such obvious oblivious people as the one you were addressing. Those still stuck in the "find THE meaning" paradigm are not even worth speaking to.

    To prove the point I'll quote... "This song... Like all of our other songs... is about anal sex!"

    To elaborate, all of these songs are about child murder and dismemberment and the rape of the elderly who are moments from death. They're also about nothing and something...blah

  • @Boxcutter7 just to point it, the song talkns about the bussiness in religion over all, but specially refers to l. ron hubbard as an example.

  • I want to have a job that requires me to play behind a guy singing in his underwear.

  • God wears boxer briefs. Love Tool.

  • Comment removed

  • Danny Carey is possessed. Actually, I think the whole band is. Each one of them is absolutely incredible at what they do.

  • Danny Carey is a machine.

  • @NecroFeeLuP

    Becauseit's true? LOL.

  • I wish the crowd would shut the fuck up.

  • UUHHGGHHH!! Maynard? WTF? you blew your last note... to me it seemed like you should have gone way longer and louder!.. oh well, still fuckin awsome and always my favorite song. WOO! ...29' ecniS TGO

  • this has always, easily, been my favourite by them

  • Comment removed

  • cant eulogize the living...

  • He had a voice that was strong and loud and it swallowed me inside,

    because I WAS SO EAGER TO IDENTIFY. I still miss him. Everyday.

  • @Lakaifamas702 I know, I was trying to be funny but apparently not lol

  • Erm... I'm pretty sure the band are meant to imagine the audience being in their underwear if they got nervous, not get in their underwear themselves

  • 65 dislikes?? Must b creed fans.fuckin' douche bags.

  • @TOOLSOLDIER1 HAHAHAHA!

  • ya f@k u jezuz

  • Is there an official video for this song?

  • @monarch3020 No

  • i love how the crowd sings every word almost as perfectly as the singer. *hearts hearts hears*

  • This song is so fucking epic

  • @MrAccount3

    such a strong song

  • I wanna know the name of that drummer

    

  • @NutterBuff Danny Carey

  • @NutterBuff danny carey  hes a monster on the tins!!

  • I fucking love tool

  • @soad14057 That may require you to become elevated to the status of MJK. I simply do not see that happening. No offense,but that seems very unlikely.

  • Not bad footage, but if you want the full effect go see them live! If your a Tool fan you will not be disappointed!

  • maynard has the voice of an army of armoured lions guarding a mountain that's wreathed in flame

  • 65 people got so into the music that they accidentally hit dislike.

  • How the fuck is it possible for someone to dislike this? And I love how those 65 pussies didnt have the sack to post a negative comment ...just hiding behind their mouse's ...assclowns the lot of them

  • @theenigmajjames haha dude calm down...

  • @10vs10000 Im perfectly calm ...pussies that hide behind their mouse dont effect my mood....just letting them know what I think of them ....

  • @theenigmajjames Sounds fair

  • 65 stupid idiots clicked dislike

  • id love to shove my tool in your perfect circle

  • @domdamanisdaman You just won the game.

  • @domdamanisdaman Puscifer

  • just goes to show that Maynard doesnt give a fuck. thats fucking awesome.

  • tool = one of the greatest bands PERIOD.

  • I wanna have the confidence to sing in front of millions of people in my underwear!

  • he really beats off to peter gabriel. like... a lot

  • Maynard's got some pipes on him, not bad for an Ohio kid.

  • im trippin balls!!!!!

  • Tool is cool. (Let's see if i can beat out the guy with the most "likes". Maybe I'd feel a bit better about myself.) lol

  • @EbluestarE I'm just gonna be a dick and thumbs down. Not personal, buddy...

  • i have job that let's me sing my underwear.

  • @yardsale1x It's art, it's beautiful, that's his job.

  • @soad14057

    u could be a crazy bum, the hours are great i hear!

  • RIP HuntingtonSt...soo long, we wish you well

  • @1Learn2Swim1

    What happened to Huntington? Or is he just not posting vids anymore?

  • @IcemanR46 The corporate douchebags at youtube took the account down because of copyright bullshit

  • @1Learn2Swim1 Crucifying someone who wanted to share music. Lovely. I hope the fat stacks of money you sit your asses on give you hemorrhoids, you mother fuckers.

  • @1Learn2Swim1 what happened to him? i hope it didn't escalate to him getting arrested.

  • Comment removed

  • @1Learn2Swim1 He's dead? He always has the best tool videos on here...

  • @mikexliv no, but his account will never see the day of light again, so sad

  • @1Learn2Swim1 What the hell did he do??

  • @mikexliv copyright issues

  • @1Learn2Swim1 he´s back!!!!!!! :)

  • @bigarden28 FUCKEN RIGHT!

  • badass live version!!

  • Holy shit! The end of this song is so goddamn intense!

  • i've missed a lot of bands i love to see them live. but i can say i have seen TOOL live.

    it's not a concert, it's an experience.

    i know this is weird of me to say, but maynard is a demi-god to me. strange, yes.. but sooo true. if he had a cult... yeah.. i'd probably be a member.

    such is life.

  • hell ya immortal technique kicks ass

  • Tool, Jeff Buckley, and Immortal Technique are the only three artists that matter to me anymore. Rest in peace Jeff. God, here's your fucking Eulogy!

  • I would've gave my left and right nut just for a ticket to the show! No other band is capable of making myself sacrifice body parts.

  • I wish the audience would stfu

  • Ho ho ho! Merry Xmas! Vote for the best of TOOL.

  • @soad14057 i think maynard is a kind of person who would try to paint half of his penis >< it just took too much time and he decided to wear boxer shorts :D

  • The weird video quality just makes this even better. Can't wait for the next album.

  • ty <3

  • exelente...!!!!

  • Danny's groove starting from 5:52 is one of my favorite grooves ever

  • I was just listening to this song today on the way home from school, and while listening to the intro, i was thinking: "I wonder how they play this song live. The intro has so many contradicting percussion parts and is so intricate...they must have a sample or back-up playing." But then I watched this and Danny is doing it all, just like I heard in the intro of the studio version. Goddam. Independence ftw. What a beast! Tool is incredible and this is an incredible song.

  • Man. That guitar part at 8:04 rocks so hard. So perfect.

  • Both Radiohead and Tool couldn't be any more different, but they couldn't be any more fantastic! So good

    @walter11900: I completely agree. It's like people raving on Kurt Cobain. Where would he be without Krist and David?

  • Thumbs up if you enjoy blasphemy!

  • maynard wouldn't be shit without the music behind him. i wish people would lay off his dick and appreciate the other 3/4 of the band.

  • Comment removed

  • @walter11900

    yes an im 100% sure that he thinks the same, fheckin ay. good comment. where would any lead singer, or frontman, be without the rest of their band?

    

  • @iniquitous85 Dave Grohl can be a whole band:-)

  • @825nbell SHUT THE FUCK UP

  • genuis matched by few

  • Standing above the crowd,

    He had a voice so strong and loud and I

    Swallowed his facade cuz I'm so

    Eager to identify with

    Someone above the ground,

    Someone who seemed to feel the same,

    Someone prepared to lead the way, with

    Someone who would die for me.

    ---some of the best lyrics ever

  • Maynard is GOD

  • 65 people were surprised to hear their own eulogy . . .

  • Fools names like fools faces, always seen in public places!......presidence and immortality lost. Present a drop in the bucket. Tally.........................­you fools.

  • Fools names like fools faces, always seen in public places!

  • love the sneaky "Woo!" at 4:33 haha

  • Tool is easily the most inventive and creative band of the last two and a half decades. There is no other band like them. btw is he talking through a hairdryer at the beginning?? cus i dont see a megaphone

  • Tool is easily the most inventive and creative band of the last two and a half decades. There is no other band like them. btw is he talking through a hairdryer at the beginning??

  • Tool is easily the most inventive and creative band of the last two and a half decades. There is no other band like them.

  • @toolfan103 I think the same can be said for Radiohead. Two very different bands in some ways, but very similar in other ways. Together they are peerless.

  • @dantenebula so true, i thought i was the only thinking that too. Actually Radiohead and Tool are my 2 fave bands in no specific order.

  • @gustav889 Mine too. :)

  • lol at maynard at the end. Gotta love him.

  • I bet they're glad they started the band.

  • you gotta love maynard's stage act...

  • Unlike most of you guys I was actually at this show, and I thought it was really boring. My friend liked it, but of course most tool fans have this feeling of "higher being" at Tool concerts, as Maynard is so fucking wasted on acid that he doesn't even realize he's playing a concert and basically just whines random sentences that fans somehow consider deep. Fans like him also like to think that the lyrics have a deep spiritual meaning only they can comprehend, which is hilariously pathetic.

  • @GodHatesPortugal lol your weird dude.

  • @GodHatesPortugal Whoa, what a dick. Ne way, Maynard knows how to put on a show, the end part was funny. Man I love this song, I love all their songs, Tool can do no wrong in my eyes....ever

  • @GodHatesPortugal oh yeh he's so obviously tripping hey..?wtf? haha As for deep spiritual meanings - thats your trip dude (or your friend's). People are fans of this band because....well... they like their music. Theyre a good band. But you don't have to listen to them.

  • @GodHatesPortugal This is a Public Service Announcement: Do not feed the trolls. Keep your arms inside the vehicle at all times. Thank you.

  • @GodHatesPortugal no you.

  • at least you tried

  • If God does exist, Maynard would be the one to kick him in the balls.

  • 5:50 sounds like a Godsmack riff to me.

  • @yeear1 :This song debuted in '96. Gosmack formed in'95 and first release wasnt until '98.

  • @AngelBurner82 Way to go there, wikipedia! I didn't say they copied them. I just said it sounded like one of their riffs. I am a Tool fan. Otherwise I wouldn't have made it 5:50. Maybe Godsmack robbed it from them!

  • @yeear1 haha! why the fuck does everyone always pin something on Godsmack? Leave them alone. xd

  • @noname91910 Godsmack is a steaming pile of sh_t.

  • 3:10 = badass

  • 63 people like dick in the booty

  • Danny Carey at 7:50 to 8:00, insane

  • Let me hear you !

    TO ASCEND YOU MUST DIE !

  • I love Bill Hicks and Tool

  • Contrary to popular belief, this song is not about Jesus but merely uses him as analogy. This song is about Bill Hicks.

  • @AimeAimeAimee no, its not..

  • A really nice intro for a great song !

  • Danny Carey's drumming is so sick!!

  • @JustSomeRandomGamer lol troll FTW

  • 6:35 Ear Rape!!!!!!

  • when does maynard NOT let his nips out?

  • Good God Maynard was good here.

  • they should do this live more often

  • whats in his hand?

  • @toadsnmarshmellows pipe bomb

  • @toadsnmarshmellows its what makes his voice sound all trippy in the beginning

  • @toadsnmarshmellows A bullhorn.

  • @JustSomeRandomGamer maybe you should chill and smoke some weed and listen to what hes saying you dont have be a fuckin genius to understand what he is trying to say without actually saying it retard...

  • @JustSomeRandomGamer . dude; just because your too fucking stupid to 'see' the deeper meaning of Tool's lyrics, doesn't mean the rest of us can't. have you ever seen some of the inteviews people have had with Maynard? He is one of the smartest people Ive ever heard, and that a shit load more than I can say for you. you dumb prick, keep your comments to yourself

  • @mschmulian smartest people you've heard? You need to listen to more smart people then. What is so intelligible that he's said? Opinionated & somewhat knowledgeable rants channeled through angst hardly makes him one of the smartest people. The people that write the books he reads may be smart. Brilliant vocalist for sure...eloquent writer, absolutely. But ranting about what makes you angry or dissapointed does not a genius make you.

  • @violetember he doesn't only rant about what makes him angry. he talks about life in general and about the music industry etc. and he makes some intelligent points. in any case, you have to have some level of intelligence to write what he writes (referring to the symbolism in some of his songs) a dumbass won't be able to write something like that. oh, and by the way. I never said he was a genius, just that he's one of the smartest people ive ever heard, and i stand by that point

  • i think you tool fans are forgetting the point..he's justsomerandomgamer who is just as important as anyone else..little to none

  • @JustSomeRandomGamer dude FUCK YOU. why waste your time on youtube watching a band you dont like. get a fuckin hobby

  • @JustSomeRandomGamer Dude FUCK YOU

  • @JustSomeRandomGamer

    you are the stupidest moterfucker I have heard, at least today for today. Unbarring everything else you wrote, to paraphrase Maynard "acid is the kind of thing you only want to do once in your life then spend the rest of your life trying to get back to that feeling"

    fail

  • @jesustoastlol your calling him stupid yet you are saying stupidest and thats not even a word also learn how to spell motherfucker

  • Danny Carey is just so freaking good!!!! I didn't even know he was doing all of that percussion, i thought he was just doing the drums part of percussion! DAMN.

  • i cant stand a queer

  • Tool is one of the best bands ever

  • @nikki3231 You mean the best band ever?

  • @nikki3231 along with zep,doors,floyd,and canibus...canibus is a rapper.. i call it brain food but if you check him out youl se why i compare him to the gods...

  • @Pentaclesun597 and Copulating101 this isn't Adam's guitar effects at the beginning of the song .This is Maynard's voice through some kind of megaphone

  • Pure ecstasy when I hear this song...And damn Maynard the build up just makes this even better. Long Live Tool I guess? Lol

  • no tool song means anything really. but rather draw upon ideas to create something real. each songs serves its purpose relavent the listener.

  • @Rricecake imo

  • @Rricecake word.

  • how can anyone appreciate true art when they are screaming their fucking heads off. I'm so pumped for seeing them on the 18th. =))))))))))) going to be life changing
