[hshugos1]

this is the best cover of this song i ever saw on youtube

[musclekid13]

Dams peoples grandparents were there hahahaha

[ibanezer405]

very good

[jointhemodernworld]

@emtildeath 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.

[HamMan1997]

OH MY GOD THIS IS INCREDIBLE! HOW DID BIEBER GET DISCOVERED BUT YOU DIDN'T?

[iuriyo]

Want some Pants on your holes bro ? xD

[jointhemodernworld]

Im sure these kids grew up to realise that Tool is gay.

[ivanmeili]

@jointhemodernworld HA fail troll

[APERFECTOOL1]

@jointhemodernworld you dont like tool? why

[jointhemodernworld]

@APERFECTOOL1

Their lyrics are generally as negative as my assessment of their music, whether they be threatening rape or making bold, revolutionary statements like 'Christianity is bad.

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.

sodomizing people's innocent ear holes.

[jtgober87]

@jointhemodernworld obvious troll is obvious



[Skullcracken]

You've got to be kidding. Tool has some of the most elaborate rock music ever written. I noticed you didn't criticize Danny Carey's drumming. That's because some of the best drummers in rock history, even Neil Peart say he's the best drummer they've ever seen.

[jointhemodernworld]

@Skullcracken and where does neil peart say that?you made that up.

Not playing 4/4 does not make him technically proficient. Thousands of bands play those kinds of time signatures.No member of Tool can show any unique technical ability on their instrument, neither in speed or accuracy.

[munchamushroom]

@jointhemodernworld Sorry dude, you're wrong. Tool is the most unique band to ever shred the soundwaves in this solar system, probably in this galaxy

[jointhemodernworld]

@munchamushroom 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.

[Litjlien]

@jointhemodernworld Something tells me you are into Jazz or Dream Theater. Don't know why.

[nrhanna]

@jointhemodernworld You obviously dont know shit about drumming if your criticizing Danny Carey's playing ability. Tool is an amazing band, so stop dissing on them just because you know you'll never be as good as any of the band members.

[jointhemodernworld]

@nrhanna omg did you know danney carey sets up his kit so as to open up a 6th portal ?

[Skullcracken]

@jointhemodernworld No I didn't make that up. Look up the vid "Danny Carey Drum Solo and Interview." THis is one video of several that reference some of the great drummers raving about Danny. For whatever reason you hate TOOL, but you're just totally BS'ing calling their music boring. You're likely a Fanboy of some other hardrock band, and don't like the attention TOOL gets.

[jointhemodernworld]

@Skullcracken

 Every single song is the same and drones on forever

[shoneyboy56]

Nice one guys!

[Novatainnata]

Great Voice'

[furro69]

You got the lyrics a bit wrong and there was a bit too much screaming, but nevertheless a great cover

[realmetaldrummer666]

yeah i watched a grown man cover this song and u r honestly way better u sound so close to maynard and that fucking note u hit at 2:42 is so amazing i had to listen to it over and over again best acoustic cover of this song ive ever heard

[Dai3eb]

I would stick with the vocals instead of mindless screaming. I clicked your page to see if you had any other covers and stepped upon a horrendous song. You sound like a pig getting stabbed.

[GuruBabadesh]

that was some epic fuckin screaming

[gieboy00]

shiz. so awesome!

[kevin19931993]

GREAT cover !!

[nightseifer]

[vdawg11]

[Movie8Maker]

[narutogoodblood13]

wtf y does your tags have sex in it

[mimffs]

@narutogoodblood13

the video gets more hits then

[Ashenbreeze]

Wow, this was really good. I thought you guys we're really amazing. Tool was my first concert, and this is almost as good as they are. C:

[Umoedd]

Constructive criticism inc..Timing a little off at times, but I really enjoyed this. Also, you sound great when you raise the vocal volume but you gotta increase the guitar volume with it.. You might be, but on video it sounds like it doesn't match.

Still awesome though.

[neger88]

I'm seriously applauding for you too. Great, fucking GREAT guitar AND vocals. 156732 stars of 5.

[ellttspen]

awesome

[motosk8er583]

awesome cover and great voice, the only things i could find wrong is that you didnt sing the 4th verse "pointing every finger at me" and that the guitars could have been louder so you hear them better when you started singing "mother marry won't you whisper"

[jetdev5]

GREAT JOB GUYS! Thank you for doing justice to one of my all time favorite songs!

[bigmeezo]

decent



[xd1rtx]

good shit boys,,,, A++++++++++

[dariusetakita]

great voice! good job!

[Aylinn13]

Nice challenge. You've succeded it oO

Really good duo.

[UTpacman]

epic last

I WANT

[ibanezer405]

this is awesome!

[slashness83]

Awesome

[slashness83]

Not bad...

[GrantLangley]

in my opinion, Muse is much more popular than Tool, but where Muse just tries to make music that the general public will like, i think Tool has a lot more feeling emotion in their songs, plus they are way more instrumentally advanced (Danny Carey is a godly drummer).....but Metallica all the way ;)

[bojanks15]

not fuggin bad at all

[flupmen]

Wirklich gut gemacht! Just Perfect!! Great Guys!!!

[surfrusty12]

I'm actually pleasantly surprised. Not bad.

[princessdestinynot]

This was an amazing cover and this is coming from a hardcore tool fan

[GrantLangley]

[skellyable]

[Mouradif]

Great cover !! Best I've heard (also first :p) Great vocal

4:49 -> the guitarist plays a wrong note

[mayhemskate09278]

@Mouradif it was intentional to change it up a little at the bridge.

[pinioninurass]

@mayhemskate09278 can only say wow!!! 36 dislikes , no way , only because you are better than them !!!! FACT !!!

[drumskater337]

@mayhemskate09278 shoulda done the explicit version.

[jason33919]

Tool at High School..... ( good times.....)

[ettsn]

Outstanding guys. Nice job!

[dvilified]

Nice to see you guys got dressed up haha. Amazing performance, easily the best cover on Youtube.

[HunterthehuntsmanHun]

most certainly the best cover of tool i have ever heard, you have the soft tender voice down, then the aggression is so pure, it feels so real. i have been a tool fan for a very long time, and if there has been anyone to come close to their greatness, it be you sir's

[ThanosRulezz]

the guy singing (jake i think ) has a gift ...!

[mfnirvanafan]

this is the best cover i have seen, well beside the staind version. but seriously great job

[manonski]

Great cover! keep rocking =)

[metalrulesworld]

dude ur jesus.... awesome cover. One of my high school teacher suggest me to listen tool........ , Tool change my taste of music.............. i cant wait for their new album.

[LordFerret920]

@metalrulesworld Your teacher suggested Tool? You have awesome teachers.

[denaukhel]

you guys are really good. adn you did a great job on the vocals for how young you guys are :) good music is good music and gratz!

[MrComeclarity]

Wow this is literally one of the best covers I've ever seen in my entire life

[100Ultimate]

Sober on acoustics is EPIC

[rustyloud]

[necrophadian]

[c3pbro1]

[ParnvoL]

You guys just made this song even more beautiful. Great voice, and guitar playing. Love!

[Nickodemusodurn]

@cemorym

Really, maybe everyone is not rich like you were when you were 6. Way to show your intolerance.

[loxario]

my god, that voice... amazing

[miikalwiest123]

wow... shows how much you know about guitars "cemorym" it doesnt matter how wexpensive the guitar is at all. why dont you just keep your negative comments to your self and let us enjoy the video, hmmm??? thanks fag:)

[gurkensalat1992]

a bit fast isn't it? :D

[superbooch3000]

this was really rad! i just wanna let you guys know that this is one of the best covers ive ever seen on youtube and the guy singing has a great voice! well done!

[roloe007]

good one! :)

[xxxexyz]

my only complaint is that u may have overpowered the mic volume it drowns the acuastics otherwise this is very good

[eddivedder11]

not bad ;-) gute Stimme und auch solide gespielt!

[slaveshallserve]

I didn't know Jay and silent Bob were Tool fans

[dooshrocket]

lmao

[simasgar]

@slaveshallserve Kevin Smith rocks

[flowerpod]

@ thatonekid779, probably they weren't allowed to say "fuck"? Awesome cover, boys!

[thatonekid779]

I know, I was kidding.

[simasgar]

@flowerpod USA, country of freedom... ah ah ah

[SouthernSniper74]

Nice

[Pandaaa90]

You have a great voice! Love the cover.

[thatonekid779]

haha, you changed the verse that goes "Jesus won't you fucking whistle" to "mother Mary won't you whisper." lame. good cover though

[nicklesaj]

maynard does the same thing in some shows

[thatonekid779]

[cherryrexxacola1]
