Tool - 10,000 Days

This is my version of the song. I used some live footage as well as some apt photos and "bedded" it with the studio version.

From what I understand, this song is about the death of Maynard's Mother. She was paralyzed for 27 years (10,000 Days) but never faltered. And it had been said that the song is so painful for Maynard, he refuses to play it live anymore. Very sad story but the song is epic in my mind. (Watch in 720p HD)

I love how Tool can make a song that's over 11 minutes long yet it still builds and builds and gets more powerful as it progresses until the crescendo...and then almost what I would consider a 2-minute epliogue at the end. Brilliant.

What a beautiful polyrhythm

This is probably my favourite track on that album. It is such a painful yet powerful story. I get goosebumps every time when he sings "Fetch me the Spirit, the Son and the Father, tell them their pillar of faith has ascended... Give me my wings." I love the video too. The choice of images is relevant and, I think, respectful to the lyrics

@TheJosephca I'm assuming you mean connection when you say "cauntion." The subtitle of the song is Wings for Marie and his mother's name was Marie. "10,000 days in the fire" is a direct reference to 27 years of suffering. This is an incredible story of someone who challenged religion through song for years and being confronted with the power of his mother's faith in the face of continual struggle and death. And then wrote a song about this tension. Or at least that's my interpretation.
