This is just sad. The lyrics are so clear. Everything is laid out. Spelled out. An old warrior is going into battle, struggling to remain relevant and consequential. He is old. His armor is wearing out. But he still wants to show that he means something. And what did these two hear in these lyrics? Caligula would grin. Yeah, let's concentrate on that. All the terrible things he did. People he killed. He is a serial killer.

A storm at sea

Imo, Intermission is an integral part of the song, even though it is a different track. The 2 tracks played one after the other seems to highlight the jarring effect his mother's stroke had on him. One day, he's a kid just doing kid things, then instantly he is thrust into this dark world that shatters his life forever. The music perfectly describes this feeling.

Great Reaction. The music helps. Its a live emotional Masterpiece.

Another David Gilmour brillant solo 😍

Ive seen pt and wilson solo like 8 9 times in almost 25 years. From a bar of 60 people to 10 000

Some of us really miss your videos. Can you unpause?

Still my favorite YT video.

Great album, and i never used to like this one. I definitely grew into it, I love in Absentia also.

Lyrics in that vid are totally wrong but good reaction

In fact this solo makes me cry so many times.

This is the only reaction video that features the voice mail message that spawned the song. Well done!

This song is about getting old and realizing you don't have the invincibility of your youth.

This is part of my one hour meditation playlist I listen to every morning… helps keep my ego in check and release the anger before I go out in the world thank you MJK and Trent reznor too while I’m at it

Many people interpret too much into the fibonacci sequence :) Most is esoteric retrofitting with a huge margin of error, especially in architechture and art. The golden ratio and the golder angle represent a perfect ratio that when repeated forms automatically the perfect usage of the space. The fibonacci sequence is just a result of that evolutionary trait. So it's not like things in nature were build or "created" with the squence in "mind" but it's just a direct result of applying the optimal ratio to the growth of the petals of a flower. The actual golden ratio is (1+sqrt(5)) / 2. It's an irrational number and very precise. Many cases when people "claim" that they see the ratio somewhere, they almost always make arbitrary reference lines. When the ratio is 1.618033... or just 1.5, there's almost no visual difference, especially when you draw kinda thick lines. It should also be noted that there's the golden spiral which is kinda like the perfect spiral. There's also the fibonacci spiral. They are not the same, but similar. The fibonacci spiral is NOT a perfect spiral as the lower terms only approximate "Phi" (the golden ratio). The golden angle is just the golden ratio applied to 360° and is about 137.508°. Petals in flowers usually spread by this angle as it guarantees the least average overlap, especially when you go on infinitely. Flowers have to account for loosing petals, so just stacking them behind others is a waste of space. By arranging them by the golden angle, it's guaranteed that each petal will receive some sunlight. Even when in the 4th layer back. This is all just the result of evolutionary advantage. Those plants which are closer to the optimum are more likely to survive, and they have. The fibonacci sequence isn't perfect. It's just the rounding to the nearest whole number of the golden ratio. It doesn't scale in both directions as it starts with "1, 1" and can't go lower. The golden spiral can go infinitely small. As I said, the sequence is just a natural consequence of the golden ratio which is the actual optimum.

sound the dread alarm, through the primal body ... !!!!!!!! i think its a call for humanity to wake the fuck up. and every reaction to this song and any other is valid.

I love that you always say “our” channel, really nice. And I can’t finish typing this after about 5 minutes my allergies realllllllly 😢…. IM NOT CRYING YOUR CRYING

Come back to do reactions please. I love your videos guys.

Is there 10 solid minutes of her sitting in silence? Very odd.

Great analysis i look forward to more Tool🎉🎉🎉🎉

She's thinking about them now......she's done for😉

This is my first trip to you all channel. Br advised this is some master level drumming! Danny Carey is at a level most can only dream of! Observe his hand speed as this tune progresses. Many cannot believe a human being can do this. I contend that Mr. Carey is a complete drum line by himself!! This first section is merely a warm up for what is about to happen. ENJOY...............

When I'm in the mood for Tool vids, I watch Int

16:09 Yes. It bears down.

I believe he was saying that we all are part of the same being. One breath, we are the essence of the universe, we just ARE (God). Light looking at itself. The reason for anything and everything. Be enlightened...

It's so rewarding watching someone truly enjoy these songs. New sub earned

if you don't know the Tool's history and it's influence to the music you will not understand this epic creation. Masterpiece

This song came out in 2006 yet it still so relevant especially given how many people are obsessed with serial killer documentaries and or TV shows focusing on such characters.

Deadwing takes you to a place far far away

TOOL our generations PINK FLOYD and DEFTONES is our generations LED ZEPPELIN

You should really split these songs up into separate videos. More views for you

I think it is about humans destroying themselves

you are funny you made my day haaaa haaaaa

Nothing more enjoyable than a beautiful woman listening to inspiring music!

I see your face, you dont understand anything whats going on.

Well, at least if you can't watch Steven Wilson's performance you have a beautiful face to look at...not that there was much going on inside of it, apparently...but who cares? Neither one of them had a clue, let's face it.

🤘🏻🌀

👍

Man, listening to this song early in your tool. Journey is like jumping in the deep end with no arms or legs. Glad you liked it!.

🤘🏻🌀

Please come back😊

Hey! Come back! We have more spirals to swing on.

David Gilmour is the glue here. His amazing vocals and guitar playing are second to none,
