  • Love David Fincher's style

  • Judith is his (maynard's) mom's name. Who was 'broken down and paralyzed' from a stroke at a young age. He is pissed that his mother of undying faith couldn't "taste of the fruit" despite 'never straying'. This is a song of pain not about religion or beliefs. This is a kid crying, really, about his mom's illness. Much of the album 10,000 days was written about this. Just enjoy the song and get off the Satan thing!

  • guys I am a Christian I love metal and fuck if I care if its against anyone ^_^ fucking rules and I love this! it rules!! Now just coz I am ddn't mean I am a religus persion who trys to SHUVE it down your throat ^_^ you could be muslim for all I care I wouldn't mined you would still be a fan of this and I right pepole? (sorry for bad english)

  • Atheist's and Satan worshipers are gonna be all over this one...lol Great song though...It's not like your a Hebrew who stabbed a hateful spear into his side...

  • nice rehearsing place they have indeed!

  • what are christians

  • Does anyone know the real meaning behind the song?

    The lyrics remind me of the book of Job.

  • @monimarz The mother of Maynard been paralysed depiste she was a good christian I think.

  • @2:43 wow i wish i knew her

  • @ShadoowKira666

    lol, my thoughts exactly

  • i watched that movie called 'Legion' last night and this song kinda resmbles it In my opinion

  • ok i like when they keep it pure , that's wtf im talkin about . wicked keep posting , and thanks

  • Love it

  • PS, by the way, FUCK YOUR GOD!

  • Wow!  Love all the MENSA member comments.

  • I'm so glad everyone commenting here has an IQ of 140+ and is a mensa member.

  • Where is the Love button? D:

  • To the christians and the atheist out there no Maynard is not a atheist the bands site said he actually jound jesus in like 05 somtime, now that that's settled can we just listen to the music?

  • @tuchesuavae that was an april fools joke jackass, he found a man named jesus in his wine cellar drinking all of his wine

  • @tuchesuavae

    You're fucking retarded. Like, way retarded. That was an April fools joke.

    He, I assure you, did not fall in love with Jesus.

  • Is it me or asre all female bass players hot? is it like some rule GOD spoke into existance in the universe man.

  • @tuchesuavae I think exactly the same, but Paz it's the hottest woman I've seen wearing high heels, dude

  • @tuchesuavae yea her an the ex bassist in white zombie make my shorts tight, gotta love hot females in bands

  • who the hell can put thumb down to this song?

  • @sandinista84 Christian fags of course.

  • Top of the shelf!!

  • Just love this video, David Fincher is amazing!

  • Listen to Maynard's voice. Just incredible.

  • actually this is't a ateist anthem, if i remember right, judith was enlightened/possessed by GOD, to betray a general whos armies soon fell to gods armies. This song is brilliant!!! Its from that generals point of view, telling judith about her blind faith. But I'm sure atheist will get a kick out of bashing people who follow GOD anyway, but to each their own.

  • Comment removed

  • @tuchesuavae

    Oh shit, I didn't even read this before ripping on you for the other comment.

    YOU. ARE. AN. IDIOT.

  • mais c'est excellent ça dis moi :)

  • ...

  • Maynard fukken RULES!!!

  • FUCK YOUR GOD YOU STUPID WORTHLESS PIECES OF SHIT OUT THERE. BREEDING LIKE ANIMALS FAITHFUL TO NOTHING BUT A BOOK AND A PRAYER. WE SHOULD UNITE AS ATHEISTS, WE ARE REASONABLE AND CAN PERPETUATE LIFE MUCH EASIER WITHOUT THESE FUCKING MORONS OUT THERE WAGING WARS AND INVENTING GENOCIDE. WE SHOULD UNITE AND LET THE REST OF THESE RELIGIOUS FUCKING IDIOTS KILL EACHOTHER. WHY SHOULD WE, THE REASONABLE GET INVOLVED? LET THE MORONS BURN. LET THE FANATICAL RETARDS KILL EACHOTHER IN "GODS NAME"....

  • @soojun u kno wy i believe in God? cuz i have"fear in the lord",what if there is a very real hell?and a very real satan?surley enough u can say"well have u seen him?no" but i can say to u,have u seen him? niether of us knows,im not trying to convert u or anything...but my mother allways told me "its better to be safe then sorry" and "if i dont believe in him?wy would he believe in me?"

  • @ieatsnowglobe why believe in something like a "god" when you can just believe in yourself? Their will never be any proof of "god" existing or not existing, so why put your faith in it...  such a waste

  • @chesspiece11 like i said,im afraid...and i certanly dont wanna do somthing i would regret if there is a God,but if there is no God then when i die....i die without facing any type of consequence...therefor i cant regret anything

    makes enough sence to me

  • @ieatsnowglobe

    fear seems like a pretty bad reason to believe in something

  • @soojun Dude you need to calm down lol

  • Paz Lenchantin could kick D'arcy's scrawny white a&&!

  • maynard rocks!

  • Amazing!  This video knocks me out cold. Paz sends shivers down my spine. Thumbs up perfect circle.

  • Such a tragic song

  • That's right, nobody can sing, scream, or write lyrics like Maynard James Keenan.

  • "Metal Boy" band :/ 

  • best song by a perfect circle song means alot if you KNOW THE LYRICS you dumb fucks

  • "Fuck your God" Best line in a song since Slayer

  • Paz Lenchantin should be imortalized! SHE ROCKS! her voice sends shivers down my spine!

  • feels like a tool and incubus combined. haha

  • absolutely beautiful song! ;]

  • Is it just me or is life a matter of opinion

  • @walkergolen I play Russian roulette every day with a bullet called LIFE ! (S.O.A.D.)

  • if you like this song, listen to "Opiate" by Tool

  • lol these bone heads, talking nonesense.

  • its not like you killed someone

    its not like you drove a hateful spear into his side

    praise the one who left you

    broken down and paralyzed

    he did it all for you

    he did it all for you

  • 1:55-1:59 shes awesome

  • 1:31-1:36 is the best part of this video..hes got a sexy face and a sexy voice

    :)

  • Damn it!! I'll probably burn in hell (or not) for liking this song so much, but the truth is: it kick ass, blasphemous or not.

  • @lcu2099 Lol I totally agree, I have it in my mind for such a long time.. it fucking rules!!!!!!!!

  • @lcu2099 I totally agree with u...it's one of those songs that never leaves your mind..or maybe that's just me..lol

  • i used to get shit faced drunk listening to this.

  • never thought to question why?

  • @adsf1111666 hes talking about his mother asking God why he put her through so much...check out the history of the band/his song...tells ya all about it

  • fuck you god

  • Hell yea, Paz, the bassist here is badass

    and whats all this talk of God, you got half the people here saying he exists and all this is blasphemy and the other saying he doesnt and its genius

    DUDE, Socrates said it best, "I am the wisest man alive for i know one thing, and that is, i know nothing"

    we just assume we know theres a God, just the way we assume there isnt, its human nature, we seek answers

    one thing for sure, we dont know shit!!!! at least thats my philosophy : )

  • @changobilly22 Dude, i couldn't have said better myself.

  • i love this because its more blasphemous then most black metal , instead of all of the pussyfooting around and trying scary lyrics, he just comes right out and questions it all, i don't have anything against black metal i like most of it , its just nice to see a guys with these kind of balls around

  • The best thing of this video is that Paz ties her hair up during the tacet.

    I don't know why but it has amused me ever since the video first came out.

  • The bassist is hot. Something about a girl with a guitar/bass, one she can use, its freakin sexy.

  • @canipe1 Don't forget the heals man .

  • God damn Maynerd has 2 kick ass bands!

  • Even tree.

  • He actually has three kick-ass bands. Check out Puscifer.

  • @S2KoK4RIVIAo Actually he is in 3 kickass bands....look up Puscifier someday :P

  • GREAT BAND

  • amazing song good guitar part too

  • This is not a hate God song

    ------------------------------­--------------------

    Completely irrelevant; God, vishnu, shiva or whatever name you choose to give are man made constructs.

    Artisans and warriors are the only true gods among us

  • Yes I agree, god is a man made construct but...

    I was pretty sure this song is about Maynard's mother and living through the suffering due to some medical condition (cancer?). And she remained strong in her faith regardless of the pain and Maynard couldn't figure out why she would. So that's what I was thinking when he says "its not like you killed someone" she never did anything to deserve it. So "fuck your god". "he took all you had and left you this way".

    Good song though, I Love APC & TOOL

  • fuck your god sounds pretty hatefull to me

  • So I can't help but read a few of these comments.. hilarious. Great song, fuck your negative opinions!

  • Omfg, this is about his motherrr, who was a religous person !

    Who got paraplegic in an accident, and he says that her god didn't save her and shiit x.x

  • LOOOOOOOOOOOL

    It's not "Fill the air with woe" it's "Fuck your god!" LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

  • @MrFaneh I think he meant the "he did it all for you"... still way off, but closer than "fuck your god"

  • @MrFaneh Fuck your God!

    Fuck your Lord, your Christ..

  • @MrFaneh --- I think he was talking about another part bud.

  • @MrFaneh

    Fuck your god, your lord, your christ.

  • @MrFaneh it's both... you retard...

  • @3lack5wan No it's not..... dumbass 

  • @blairpio Whatever... Like I give a fuck what some yank thinks.

  • @3lack5wan Haha, don't think you need to worry about Yanks thinking.......

  • @blairpio Thats just low. I tend to agree though and I am a "Yank".

  • no its about maynard's mom and how she was battling cancer and no matter how bad it got for her she never lost her faith and it's saying "it's not like you killed some one" but yet she never got better

  • it's not a hate god song.

    You know, there's something called Wikipedia, pretty useful by the way.

    Well, a song can be interpreted in soooo many ways, but it all depends on WHO interprets it.. So i can say, you have one pretty fucked up brain, or some religion issues, idk, but.. it's ok i guess.

  • The song was already amazing.But seeing the video 2day....its fucking awesome,specially when the chick starts adding her vocals at the end.Something hypnotic about this clip lol

  • @ every one FUCK YOU!!!

    Now be my friend..

    FUCK YOUR GOD!!

  • I didnt know this was about his mom, but i think Jesus gave maynard the best voice in the history of ROck

  • "Hey man, what tha fuck,......How come every video of A Perfect Circles, "Judith" has it's embedding removed by request?"

  • going to go listen to TOOL..

  • fuck your god let life kill u and fuck everything

  • oh yea 8====D penis

  • Half the people commenting are fuckin pathetic jokes of people, you have done absolutley no research on the meaning of the lyrics of this song, Maynard James Keenan is very religious and is meang the lyrics toward "YOUR" god, the hateful judgemental god. He knows his god but says fuck the god you worshop that hates and judges simply by look or past. This song is about his mother while she was sick and being judged by her fundamentalist "friends". There ya go ass-hats haha

  • @bighickdogg426 i dont think keenan worships any god, lmao

  • It's not right for "ass-hats" to discuss topics they're not familiar with, but you're just as "fucking pathetic" as they are. Just because you've lived your life up Maynard James Keenan's butt doesn't mean everyone else has. Give them a break! Your crass language makes you seem stupid. You tried to share your knowledge, which is respectable. Being rude is unnecessary. Next time, try using less profanity, better punctuation, and correct spelling. That will help get your point across effectively.

  • -1 for embedded ads. keep videos pure.

  • Comment removed

  • The song is about his mom being super religious and her friends and family said that her sickness was because she had "done something wrong" to get cancer. He thought it was ridiculous, so he wrote this song.. and it's so true!

  • @April8110 - wow thats soo cruel. its kinda hard to believe friends and family would be like that though.........some friends huh?...

  • yeah you're right... kind of crazy that your "friends" would say that you did something wrong just because you got cancer. It's crazy how cruel people are, but that's the way the world is.

  • This song n vid are still bad ass.... timeless

  • the bass player is so hot she was in smashing pumpkins for a bit. and the drums are bad ass!

    love this band...........!

  • seeing them in concert is like seeing god come down from heaven but i liked tool better

  • Bitchin tune. Who's the hauttie on bass? She's got a perdy mouth. . .

  • @Cash2112 paz lechantin

  • When U say Nirvana u think of Kurt, When you say Alice In Chains You think Layne but shit man When U say Maynard Its Fuckin Tool n APC fuck ya

  • LOL check out the random toothbrush @1:18

  • yeah with a tootahpaste dispeneser and floss wtf? never caught that...

  • This song is about the silly little thing called christianity, and the absurd rules, and beliefs that go along with it.

    Like he says-- it's not like you killed somebody-it's not like you dove the spear into his side. Stop feeling so guilty, why do they make us feel that we must suffer to have anything good in life. The power is within QUESTION EVERYTHING---it's your spirit tier crushing let it grow free.

    DO ONTO OTHERS WHAT YOU WOULD DO TO YOURSELF--BEST RULE OF LIFE!

  • and it predates christianity

  • @TheRebelofTheLight It sure does.

  • amen

  • wow you know what i like playing the bass to this song on guitar hero 5 lol

  • Fuck your god

    Your lord, your Christ

    He did this

    Took all you had and

    Left you this way

    Still you pray, never stray, never

    Taste of the fruit

    Never thought to question why

  • wicked song

  • i barely started listening to apc, been in to tool for a while though. but damn maynard just badass.

  • have you listened to thirteenth step yet?

  • This is pure love...

  • I just realized what hooks me to this track. The extraordinary and inspired drumming.

  • y esta fue la rola que me tranquilizó! ...

  • this video is really great!

  • Recovering H addict...Maynard James is such an inspiration to me CJ McGillacutty

  • the spear of destiny....hitler was looking for that thing i wonder if he ever found it.

  • he did find it. Only then he lost it, and guess what? He lost the war as well...

  • Never stray, never break, never Choke on a lie! Even though He's the one who Did this to you! Never thought to question why It's not like you killed someone! It's not like you drove a spiteful spirit to his side! Talk to Jesus Christ as if He knows the reasons why He did it all for you, whoa. He did it all for you, whoa. He did it all for YOU!!! (Oh!)
  • Your Lord, your Christ. He did this! Took all you had and Left you this way! Still you pray, never stray, never Taste of the fruit! Never thought to question "why"? It's not like you killed someone! It's not like you drove a hateful spirit to his side! Praise the one who left you broken down and paralyzed, He did it all for you, oh. Oh so many ways for me to show you how your dogma has abandoned you Pray to your Christ, to your God Never taste of the fruit!
  • It's not like you drove a hateful spirit to his side!

    wrong.....It's not like you drove a hateful SPEAR INTO his side! just so you know

  • oh thanks :] that makes a lot more sense.

    i never looked up the lyrics before, i just heard it like that.

    not saying you looked them up.

  • I didn't look up the lyrics, that's how I have always heard it, and it goes with the religion theme. I love this song, and I have never seen this video before(I must live under a rock), I was actually surprised to see Maynard with long hair. I know I'll get thumbs down for saying that :)

    It's all good, we are listening to the same shit anyways.

  • yeah, like i said, it goes with it more.

    dont be shocked, maynard rocks many wigs lawl.

    i think he looks badass with long hair.

    MJK ftw.

  • fucking great song!!

  • I became an athiest to this song

  • You're such an inspiration for the ways

    That I'll never ever choose to be

  • Oh, so many ways for my to show you how your savior has abandoned you...

    FUCK YOUR GOD.

  • esta cancion es la mas agresiva de aperfect circle es excelente

  • yep, mutter "bitch" to me and it's ON, lol

  • F@#%in' Amazing song.

  • This song and video rock so hard. I have to say the style of the video fit the song perfectly, even though the subject matter of the track is pretty intense.

  • It feels weird with him not singing in tool...

  • i just think its weird seeing him with hair xD

  • 3:15-3:30= epic

  • Paz is so ridiculously hot.

  • no doubt, the way she ties her hair back......

  • yeah I love how she ties it back just in time for her cue. Too bad she left the band. She kicked ass and was hot.

  • She seems like one of those girls that would be feisty in a relationship, like in an argument, you mutter "bitch..." and then she decks you in the face, but then your just turned on.

  • James maynard hebert keenan .. Thats where the songs jimmy , H. or herion come from , his name

  • no it comes from his sons middle initial of H.

  • his name is its just james herbert keenan. Maynard isn't his real name, just a military nickname

  • "maynard" was his nickname in the military. James Keenan.......another brilliant ohio native. Paz is a great bassist too BTW
