Deftones - Passenger (ft. Maynard Keenan) HD Music Video

This vid is the combination of the movie Drive and Passenger by Deftones. Passenger always gave me chills. Not to mention two of my all time favorite vocalists: Chino Moreno and Maynard of Tool / A Perfect Circle / Puscifer fame.
The beginning sequence of Drive reminded me of this song so much.
I am dedicating this fan video to the memory of Chi Cheng who recently passed. His bass line in the verses is haunting and soothing at the same time. That, my friends, is pure talent.

[@DeybisLozano]

THIS SONG brings me memories of my long distance trips with my late wife, when we traveled for days and days,so close together that i had to change the bucket seats of my ´68 dodge dart for a bench, so we could be in touch all the time... whenever i go out in that same car,i still feel her presence inside the car, as if she drops by to make me feel better, so i never forget her... it´s so strange, that sometimes i even smell her perfume and feel her warmth on my shoulder, and hear her voice saying "don´t be so shy, floor it, daaaaamn it..."... miss her so much, but ,at least ,her memories will never fade in my mind,SHE IS STILL MY PASSENGER...thanks for posting this masterpiece, man...

Lyrics Here I lay Still and breathless Just like always Still, I want some more Mirrors sideways Who cares what's behind? Just like always Still your passenger The chrome buttons buckle on leather surfaces These and other lucky witnesses Now to calm me This time won't you please Drive faster Roll the windows down this Cool night air is curious Let the whole world look in Who cares who sees anything? I'm your passenger I'm your passenger Drop these down Then put them on me Nice cool seats There to cushion your knees Now to calm me Take me around again Don't pull over This time won't you please Drive faster Roll the windows down this Cool night air is curious Let the whole world look in Who cares who sees what tonight? Roll these misty windows Down to catch my breath and then Go and go and go just Drive me home and back again Here I lay Just like always Don't let me Go go go go go go go go go Take me to the edge

Nothing like nostalgia and great music.

[@VillaFanLasse]

Chino Moreno and Maynard James Keenan The twoo absolute greatest vocalists on planet Earth!

[@F4R207]

Got to see them perform it live together as the music festival in Roskilde. Chino was wrecked as shit through out that show but shaped it up when Maynard stepped out for Passenger. Tool was bloody brilliant later on that night which blew my girlfriends friends minds as they'd never heard them befor that, Maynard stripped down on stage through out the set, so I guess he was enjoying himself. It was a great show.

[@sarahgiammarinaro4382]

Nice. I have never actually listened to anything else from the Deftones, as I'm a pretty serious TOOL fan, but this is a solid song. I've seen MJK perform with TOOL numerous times, once with A Perfect Circle. What an incredible vocalist and performer. My only hope is that people are able to penetrate TOOL beyond the "loud/aggressive" labeling and see them for how incredible they are at putting out incredibly moving music. Thanks for putting this song up!

[@Mrguitarcover1234]

3:30 In this chorus the guitars are basically open strings. Maynard doesn't need any chords to sound awesome
