FAITH NO MORE - The Real Thing (Lyric Video)

[@kimmyfreak200]

this is the best song i ever heard... i have heard music all my life but had a strange intense reaction to this!!! this song is PURE EARGASM

[@bigchucklyricvideo]

It's an awesome song! I saw them do it live, back in the day...

[@Orange_Sailboat]

You'll be writhing on the floor then once you hear Ashes to Ashes.

[@jousepaula]

Sim, é o que Eu sinto toda vez que ouço essa música. Mexe na alma, no âmago do ser, da criatura ouvinte! Porra Carvalho!

[@saltymahero9898]

Yes. I'm forty six...brought this when I was sixteen. It still raises the hair on my neck .

[@adamlouiecardwell4610]

Its about addiction

[@jlovervaner]

Their drummer is amazing

[@marqbeatty2694]

IMO, The Real Thing album was Faith No More's all-time tour de force moment. For me, the 'Real Thing' track was just trail-brazenly transcendental. I've never heard anything better than this in terms of crystallising a moment in time, capturing a unique, or perhaps ubiquitous, situation of sensual perfection... Only you can decide.....😎🤘

[@BrainSturgeon]

Great comment, I second this. This was the most epic album and next in line was maybe Angeldust.

[@matthewbarnishin4806]

First CD I ever owned. I played it nonstop. My roommate said I would get sick of it. Wrong. I listen to it now and I can’t help to think how many bands infused a little bit of the Faith No More style and sound.

[@pineapplepenappoodlepen]

Still amazing to this day.

[@MrJoeandjulie]

Long time fan. Prob my most fave song ever.

[@daronius]

I had a panic attack for the first time in my life last night. I saw my whole life in a movie, and I had the feeling that I was about to die. I was so scared. This song was what made me come down. Every feeling was so intense... This is the song of my life. This song is been with me for the most part of my life, and only yesterday I released how this is important to me. As a guy said in one of the comments, this song is a gift. especially at this moment in my life.

[@scottreynolds9902]

I had a manic episode once and listened to this song and thought they were singing about me directly to me and all the answers of life were being given to me.My favorite FNM song by far. It's poetry. I played it for the three days I was up.

[@saltymahero9898]

Been there ...hope you're doing ok now .

[@scottreynolds9902]

Thank you Salty. I am much better now. My meds are doing well and I am stable. More than I was before they figured out what cocktail would be best for me. Since you have been through it you know what it's like. I hope that you are doing well yourself. Thanks again for your comment.

[@saltymahero9898]

@@scottreynolds9902 I am . Thanks .

[@AcrylicGoblin]

​​@@saltymahero9898glad you are doing better. I had a manic episode once and was sure I heard the deep meaning of existence (giant inside joke that it is) in every song lyric. For me, it was the Tool album Lateralus. The truth was right there for everyone to hear but we are generally all too busy with daily life to notice. But the universe was whispering to me from beyond the veil and I heard it. It was a wonderful experience. I started smoking tons of weed to mellow out and sleep and eventually, I thought I was the savior of humanity and would raise a hidden crystal ship from the earth and save us from malevolent alien invaders. I became a raging asshole and made my wife stay with family for a couple weeks while I loaded up my car to head out on the road. I got thrown out of my hotel and numerous other places and eventually ended up in jail. Before things went completely off the rails I did gain a deeper perspective on existence, similar to some of what's in this song. I think this song details the journey of a strong acid trip. And just like my manic episode, I've tried to hold on to the insights from a fleeting experience.

[@warborn_inc.]

Patton wrote these lyrics when he was 19 Let that sink in

[@rpscorp9457]

He wrote the whole album in two weeks..awed.

[@jimmywilliams8045]

Thanks for this video, I like the Tool-esqe feel in the artwork too. Absolutely brilliant lyrics!

[@fabiaccio8493]

this song alone has more chord changes than an entire tool album

[@pineapplepenappoodlepen]

I believe you should be saying tool has an FNM-esque look seeing as they came many years before Tool and likely set the stage for them to even exist.

[@doogiejames5763]

Songs like this just aren't written anymore... it's a lost art...

[@lawrightlw]

Thanks Big C for the lyrics. Words mean something. Big thanks!

[@lawrightlw]

So mentally intense and benign but reaches in your mind and pulls all your thoughts out, sexual or not. Mind and body pieced together. Love this!

[@TomSlickery]

Awesome. Thanks for this. Finally someone got the right lyrics.

[@AmberMcNattin1980]

First time i heard this song just now, i like it!

[@strangerrose538]

I love this. That's the song of my life.

[@christopherbrooks1974]

Yes 🎯

[@davemieze9021]

This is lightning in a bottle. Thank god for KZbin and the internet. I would have listened to this for the last time after my boombox ate my cassette while trying to high speed dub a copy 😂

This is the song with the answer : i am God! Are you,?

[@Thekingoffungus]

Yes!

2:29 OMG

[@basecode8]

First line lyrics are drastically incorrect… “The essence of the SOUL” You can clearly hear the pronunciation in the audio despite what the text says.

[@col.nathanr.jessup5700]

I love Mikes voice but I wonder how Chuck would sing it.

[@bigchucklyricvideo]

I would probably sing it in the key of A, but with my own lyrics rather than Patton's...

[@col.nathanr.jessup5700]

@@bigchucklyricvideo Chuck Mosley :D

[@bigchucklyricvideo]

😉

[@scriptorioiio4008]

If not the best, seriously on of the best songs ever written sung, yeah stairway ect was good but this is up there, top ten dude not kidding. Apparently ppls abilities to feel music has gone..

[@ryanparkercolour]

This album is absolutely amazing but I always wish it had the production of angel dust I would love to hear the bass more and that bass drum filling up the space.

[@PapaCharlieRJ]
