My mother passed away in 2020 after suffering a stroke and being paralyzed and mute for 18 years. We read the lyrics "Shake your fist at the gate...give me my wings" at her funeral. Probably not too many 72 year olds have TOOL lyrics read at their funeral 😪

[@cr8onmorgan]

These two songs are a tribute (eulogy) to his mother, Judith Marie, who spent over 27 years in a wheelchair, but never lost her faith in the lord… something Maynard struggled to accept. In this album he reconciles those feelings.

[@prefono]

Rather than in a wheelchair, he spent 27 years in bed I think...

[@bowhuntr6825]

10000 days paralyzed from a severe stroke.

[@violetfemme411]

Heard it 10,000 times and still cry EVERY time 😢💜

[@robertjones4361]

I too cannot get through either without crying......and I too have heard them both 10,000 times

[@docjoe8987]

“10,000 days in the fire is long enough, you’re going home” gets me every time

[@marcodallolio9746]

Same here, without fail. I'm a middle-aged italian man. We do love our mothers here, but still, it's rather embarassing

[@johngilbanni5891]

I hope you got to see it live. I was able to in 2006, NOLA. The crowd didn’t make a peep other than a random drunk here and there. Total respect for those involved with the loss and awe for the performance.

[@EweCantHandletheTruth]

Me too. A 52 year old stubborn dude who rarely shows emotion, but I swear I get so choked up every time. I think it’s because i not only deeply sympathize for him or anyone for that matter who’s lost their mother, but I feel like it’s prepping me for the day when my beautiful mother has to pass on.

[@prefono]

The greatest love song ever written in my opinion!

[@bowhuntr6825]

Can’t like this comment more, a thumbs up just doesn’t cut it. It’s a perfect description.

[@stevesmith9617]

Its certainly the most honest

[@violetfemme411]

Absolutely. And what a beautiful comment 💜

[@johnseward2934]

Maynards vocal delivery really swims in the ocean of sound created by Justin, Danny, and Adam.

[@dpaquette69]

My mom passed away a few years ago after suffering for years, I can't listen to these songs without thinking of her and tearing up. Such a beautiful tribute to his mother.

[@naturalginger999]

I feel the same 🧡😔

[@Sky14318]

Arguably one of the most hauntingly beautiful, masterful pieces of music ever composed. This song, lyrically and musically, allows you to feel every emotion associated with loss… the anguish, the fear, the rage… both individually and all at once. Absolutely spectacular and wrenching

[@zacharyberridge7239]

I've often described it as his soul, laid bare. And yes, it's an internal journey through grief. I saw an interview with him. He used her ashes in the soil at his plantation, so every vine that grows has a little bit of Marie in it.

[@MichaelJohnson5.0]

Aside from being a tribute to his mother, the way I interpret it is also, holding god accountable. The " give me my wings" to me is, I held my faith in you, you owe me my place in heaven.

[@adammorvant]

The sounds at the beginning and end are wings flapping.

[@SteveReddington]

i AM A 66 YR OLD MAN WHO JUST LOST MY MOM...This makes me CRY every timE!!!

[@johnnyb6067]

I’ve seen a lot of bands and I’ve seen tool 8 times. But there was no other experience like seeing these two songs played live. I was 100% lost in the music. It was at night, outdoors, the crowd, the band, the music, and myself were like one thing. It was wild.

[@corabarocio4077]

You're so lucky

[@bowhuntr6825]

If this song if listened to and not just heard it hits one right in the feels

[@robertjones4361]

Knowing the story....changes everything brother.....do the research then listen again, for yourself, the appreciation for your family and the way he worder the confusion of sadness and death......he's a visual lyricist, I see images and colors when I listen to him

[@geoffchambers3589]

Wow. I didn't think anyone could love this song as much as I do.

[@evanchiligiris8701]

Wings&10,000 are part 3&4 of Maynard coming to terms with his mothers condition and death. #1 Jimmy (tool-Aenima) #2 Judith (A Perfect Circle) In Jimmy, his reference to 11 is about his mother being paralyzed by an aneurysm (for 27 years/10,000 days until her death) when he was 11 years old.

[@scottsimms7651]

27.4 years = 10,000 days. Judith served her time in that chair and never lost her faith.

[@stephenandrew6087]

It's unbelieveable that you figured out that much on first freaking listen. This reaction was FANTASTIC, quickly moving into top tier reviewer status. Bigger things to come for you. Cheers!

[@MugnifyRTS]

Glad you enjoyed it! lol.. I just hear different

[@nathcascen473]

u dont have to be A. Einstein with 200 iq to understand this song...

[@violetfemme411]

@nathcascen473 And it seems you don't need a high IQ to comment so rudely.

[@Kyle.Wynsma]

This song should bring you to tears

[@jkron118]

Amazing! I just requested you review this! Now I see the video!!! Thank you! This one is usually missed. Got my popcorn!!

[@georgeheadman3024]

Definitely need to read the lyrics to these. And try not to cry. Edit: oh, never mind, you did.

[@lancebishop3264]

Gotta check out A Perfect Circle "Orestes" live at red rocks.....AMAZING performance of a beautiful song...MJK kills that one too, along with Billy and the rest of APC...well worth a reaction!

[@violetfemme411]

My favorite concert. I've watched it MANY times. Such an awesome collection of songs that spread the same theme. 💜

[@sweetleaf9668]

Tool rules! I saw them last month and going again in January. They sound better live! Tool is the best band ever, period!

[@suudsuu]

This was a good react, and thank you for taking the time! Please forgive this bold suggestion, but you should give these tracks a second pass on your own time, when you're not working your charms for the audience. Really let yourself marinate in the love and vindication woven throughout the song. I'm confident you won't regret it.

[@corabarocio4077]

Maynards most personal song he wrote. It's incredible to say the least.

[@MrAndersonmm]

24:00 ish - almost every Tool song is in some mode of D minor. It's amazing how much variety they can get playing in that key all the damn time.

[@slappymcbutterballs7326]

orange is the new black

[@philipfore7478]

Man, I tear up every time I hear this song (just one amazing song to me)

[@MikeOstrowski-iq8wf]

Great reaction…… your on the right track with the breakdown ! Well done sir 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

[@MichaelJohnson5.0]

To add to what others have said, 10,000 days works out to just over 27 years. The amount of time his mother spent in a wheelchair, suffering with her condition.

[@haagatha]

Got some tissues is correct....every single time 😭

[@godzilla928]

Best reaction channel ever, no doubts about it

[@TheGregiss]

These two songs make this album a masterpiece.

[@nataliemorris9434]

his mother was bed ridden many years but her faith never waivered. 10000 days of suffering then the glorious crowning of her conviction.

[@docjoe8987]

Ohhh baby, this gonna be a good one

[@taviancavanaugh6514]

Time pink floyd is a great listen love to see your reaction

[@LudusAurea]

Woot love this song

[@naturalginger999]

Maynard loved his Mamma✨🧡🙏

[@robertsaterlie4124]

I always heard it as "Ignorant flippants in the congregation", using flippant as a noun to denigrate his mothers' church congregation further as if they do not understand and do not care and are just not truly serious about God and faith as his mother truly was. Lyrics online are often wrong and are rarely posted by the music creators themselves. Another example of bad lyrics you have there is with the line you read as "so who could deny you were the one who eliminated your little piece of the divine" (maybe you did say illuminated, hard to tell), but I always heard that lyric as "...the one who illuminated MY little piece of the divine". It ties in better with the preceding lines about the little light of mine a gift she passed onto him and ties in well with Maynards disillusion with, and downright hatred of early on, the church. She though was the one divine thing illuminated in this whole dark congregation of misguided "faithful" in that church. She was the light who gave him the light, a little piece of true faith and it helped him come back around on God or at least on understanding his mother and her steadfastness in adversity.

[@LudusAurea]

It’s flippants you’re correct

[@markwillis675]

Another part of the story that I heard. Right or wrong. Is that the congregation blamed Judith Marie for her condition. Saying she didn't believe string enough. So this was God's way of punishment.

[@robertsaterlie4124]

@@markwillis675 I think I heard that as well. If so that is even worse and I can understand Maynard's animosity towards them and the church in general. The church and the men who run them are fallible, do not blame God for the weaknesses of men. With the gift of free will many a mistake have been made, though never should those mistakes be attributed to God directly. It is tough battle mentally to understand when things like this happen to good people. So very sad.

[@GregCarlet]

Now that you heard these, check out how they put Viginti Tres and Wings together to be played simultaneously with 10,000 Days and have your mind blown. Enjoy!

[@MugnifyRTS]

Send me the link

[@XathexX]

Interesting and if it is good for you then by all means enjoy. However most of what I hear when this is done with out modifying the audio it turns out to be messy. with the 2 parts being written in the same time & key it makes sense there would be some overlap.

[@brunoamancio1455]

Dude if you like Tool you should listen to A Perfect Circle it's another project that Maynard does the vocals

[@paulamccarthy9511]

Also Puscifer, especially the songs The Humbling River, Grand Canyon and Horizons

[@WickedGonza]

Greatest band ever. Check out the sky is red by leprous

[@75jamesd]

Heard not so many times but cried at least thrice.

[@laurapechonis9172]

I am so late to react, but in the s cond part, wings for Marie, -Marie was his mom and she suffered in pain and non-functioning for 10,000 days. She was very religious. Maynard loves his mom beyond belief and pretty much thought she was a saint. And all the stuff about "you're going home" (to heaven) and Maynard wonders why he was given her "torch/light" but he uses it in respect to his mom's beliefs to use his light to guide her path to heaven. And the line "give me my, give me my wings"- he believes that his mother truly deserves wings to fly on to heaven.

[@laurapechonis9172]

My best friend passed away and he was so very sick and took his own life by shotgun because his pain from his fluid in his lungs and shear pain was just too much. Doctor's told him he should live to about 16, but at 21 he was still wonderful. But he just couldn't take the physical pain, nor the "waiting "of his parents to watch him die from his disease, so he chose his own death. It ruined me. And though I am angry with him, I am so very happy he is at peace. R I P. Jim.😅

[@shanemason4031]

Love this song, has a special meaning to me with the similarities with my mom. Really wish you would check out the band Wheel and the song Dissipating, they have a tool vibe as well with their music

[@jasonhealey8214]

Thanks man

[@TheBman292]

Just close your eyes and let tool take you on a journey

[@ted1976hailspiralout]

🤘🏻🌀

[@heatheral-hammadi3046]

I have a question I hope you see. I wonder from your perspective if there is another band that has the same fanatical (in a good way) and loyal fan base as tool? I’m for sure a Tooligan.

[@heyskipj]

I'd add MJK was mad at his Mom's congregation because in this moment of his mom's passing. Their takeaway was that if she was a better Christian, God wouldn't have punished her in this way. But as she followed the path seemingly better than any of them, it was a Judas betrayal of Judith and their faith at once.

[@JasonTurner-uk9rk]

Awesome as always my friend….. I think you need to do a deeper dive on System of a Down… also a band to keep the lyrics handy and just do the lyric videos

[@geoffchambers3589]

Sorry. They suck. Seriously.

[@TraditionalHippie]

Bless me Lord for a have sinned

[@jmarra07]

Yes, it's about his mom.

[@user-kx7cu6md5b]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@mnnicholas304]

He called Maynard “James” 😝

[@violetfemme411]

His name IS James.

[@mnnicholas304]

@@violetfemme411 I’m aware of that 😂

[@efjefe]

Give me my wings.

[@thepooz7205]

I don’t know where you pulled lyrics from, but they are quite off. Examples: “ignorant siblings” is “ignorant fibbers” - in context it is members of the congregation that lie about how devout they are, because devoutness is a measure of status among the congregation in the church. I see others saying flippants instead of fibbers here in the comment section, but don’t think that fits in context. He wrote another song called Flippant and I think people are retroactively hearing it here too. Plus “flippants” is not a word. “Eliminated .. little piece of the divine” is actually “illuminated”. Soon after he quotes “this little light of mine” which follows from the illuminated lyric.

[@anytorp]

can you react to the music videos next?

[@MugnifyRTS]

Sure

[@almofo2237]

Her debilitating condition was attributed to her sins by her church congregation . Thats what really pissed James off .

[@Mandonburphy]

Bro youtube has been super duper laaaaaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmmmeeeeeeee with the ads lately. Dislike ads comment here.

[@assmaster420]

the Pot?@!!? and i wish you wouldnt reseach the song before listening to..too fake

He is live streaming. People are feeding him info in the chat during the reaction
