This is the baseline that Justin Chancellor wrote while waiting to audition as Tools new bassist. Such an iconic song.

[@christianfrankjamoomba]

In my opinion, Justin just took their sound to completely different dimension.

[@Andrew46_2]

@@christianfrankjamoomba couldn't agree more.

[@jhamler1]

I met Justin Chancellor at a soccer game in 2009 and literally broke into subtle tears that he, thankfully, didn't notice. We shared some beers and did NOT talk about TOOL. Supercool guy.

[@chucknorris1948]

I'd always heard that D'Amour wrote the bass line but was re-recorded by Chancellor when D'Amour left the band midway through the recording of AEnima.

[@Andrew46_2]

@@chucknorris1948 nah there's an interview where Justin talks about not really wanting to join tool and wrote this baseline on the plane ride to audition.

[@Ender7j]

This song changed my life. I wasn’t in a good place as a young man but that changed one night. I took mushrooms and sat in front a speaker at my brother’s house for six hours with this album on repeat. No one noticed, we were all tripping. The words and music spoke to me, told me that I could evolve mentally and spiritually. It showed me I wasn’t the only one struggling to crawl out from under their rock and look at the sun. Changed me forever, for the better. These guys are the best at what they do. Thanks for doing this one!

[@richheustis5930]

Tool & Shrooms... the absolute best way to open your mind and reconsider what is possible. Saw them live in Orlando on a HEAVY dose. Insane experience.

[@teddy.d174]

Ender7 your comments gave me chills. They’re one of my very favorite bands, I saw them on their first ever tour and it was life altering, a spiritual, transcendent experience. I’m a retired firefighter of 27yrs, I struggle with depressive holes and mental health issues occasionally, due to nearly 30yrs of seeing people at the worst times of their lives. Nothing works like music…it along with my loving wife and dogs are THE ONLY things that can pull me out. Thank you for sharing, it made my evening. Especially since I’ve tripped more times in my life than I can count and when you’re dialed in to your surroundings, it’s a very special feeling. 🍻

[@Skurian_krotesk]

So i am an absolute sucker for lyrics because i am writing poetry myself and this song is a masterpiece let me tell you. He is basically singing about the next step in human evolution. 46&2 is referring to the amout of chromosomes in humans. 46 is the current amount and two additional chromosomes is assumed to be the next step towards ascend. When he is talking about the shadow he is speaking in the idea of a very famous psychologist Carl G. Jung who speaks of the shadow quite often in his work. The idea behind it is that every individual has a dark side. A shadow they have to overcome. My shadow is a lack of self discipline for example. My mission as an individual is it to integrate the shadow of my personality into my live and learn to live with it in the best way possible. This is the theme of this song. Shedding skin. Stepping through the shadow and comming out the other side. Committing to metamorphosis. Be part of human evolution. Find the next step towards greatness. This shit is motivating me to study physics.

[@majormattmason8408]

or genetics. ;) Great Post.

[@Skurian_krotesk]

@@majormattmason8408 well yes science in general is a wonderful workfield but i personally am getting ready to study physics in real life and this song is motivating me to do it, but i see how it would be even more motivating if you would plan on studying genetics or psychology :D That would definitely be even more compelling when compared to the theme of the song.

[@eloerch7]

Well said. Me and My fuckin shadow lol... working on it

[@smileygladhands]

I think mjk talked about the meaning of this song back in a 2004 interview. You're pretty close to what he said.

[@Skurian_krotesk]

You should listen to Right In Two next. Among my favorites, very melodic. Really love the way Maynard rounds out the vowels in that one, like he's wrapping himself around the bassline.

Fourth this. Right in two is transcendent. Take notes, cuz it’s exactly what we’re doing to ourselves

[@robfrawley]

This is such a great track! For those who appreciate Danny Carey's drumming, here is an actively synced drum transcription of Forty Six & 2: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hIO1mIyQf7d8edk

[@HopeUnger-r7f]

This is one of my favorites. lol they’re all my favorites. The meaning behind this is learning to let go of the ego and heal your shadow. To keep evolving and growing, learning and loving yourself. I’m struggling with this sometimes lately. But I’m trying so hard.

[@jo6554]

It never gets old seeing someone experiencing Tool for the first time! I am a classically trained musician/singer/songwriter who had an original alt-heavy rock band in the 90s. When Tool came out, it was like they’d reinvented the wheel. There was a lot of anti Tool sentiment from the “grunge” (for a lack of a better word) or classic rock scenes. As a trained musician, I could understand just how sonically mind blowing Tool’s music is. Keep in mind, we’re still in the age of the “guitar hero” of 80’s metal of varying genres. I hated gratuitous guitar solos & loved that Adam Jones was using his instrument to create & build intense moods. I appreciated each one of Tool’s members for their musicianship, for their dedication to creating something new & incredibly powerful. As a songwriter, Maynard’s lyrics & otherworldly sounding voice blew me away & challenged me to push my own writing. Justin’s dense riffs make songs come alive & OMG Danny Carey!!! Drum God who is a gift to this world. THIRTY years of loving Tool & it never gets old. I love how you now love them too! Share the love!! ❤️🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼❤️

[@johndeedot]

Dude, no lie, this song got me through jail time with my sanity intact. One of the greatest songs ever made.

[@natel7151]

It probably is the perfect song to carry in your mind through something like jail time. Endure the hell, step through, and get stronger.

[@amyRMA]

I didn't know you watched Polo Reacts John! I have absolutely loved watching his reactions to Tool! Their music seems to get a lot of folks through incredibly difficult times. Music that is transcendental, complex, and never boring!

[@wardibald]

Kudos to you for pulling that off, John.

[@Az_meg]

I saw a tik tok account that said the same thing. He also talks about books

[@peartist2]

What did you go to jail for?

[@LanceThompsonKssooner]

Not a single bad song! Really not a single mediocre song. Greatest band ever IMO 🤷‍♂️

[@mahogany174]

I’m with you all the way! Yet to find a band that satisfies like Tool.

[@lceidolon]

Agree with the first two sentences, and then I remember that Tool isn't even my favorite Maynard band (A Perfect Circle). Still, can't find any fault in your opinion. Both offer wildly different vibes, while maintaining unconventional sounds within their respective genres; each providing a surface-level suggestion of chaos, but meticulously created.

[@LanceThompsonKssooner]

@David Monroe well I am one of the few TOOL fanatics that really doesn't care for Maynard's other projects. They have a few songs I will listen to, but for the most part, they are pretty meh to me. But hey, to each his own 🍻

[@lceidolon]

@Lance Thompson I get it. Tool is my preference between the two while doing anything (driving, housework, etc.). APC is better sitting music for my tastes. Honestly, I'd love to see them in a small, all seated venue; a la a stereotypical Jazz lounge.

[@LanceThompsonKssooner]

@David Monroe agreed. It's just a different style. Nothing wrong with it at all. I, too, would enjoy seeing it live (APC OR Pucifer).

[@lesliezerkel9719]

This song got me through one of the hardest times. It spoke to my soul and made me powerful. It worked. Everything came through like magic. I LOVE THE THOR reference! Love you!!

If you get a chance, go see TOOL live, you won't be disappointed. As you watched with their Sober live performance, they're close to their recorded versions, the band is even better live now. I've seen them quite a few times over the last couple of decades and there has never been a bad performance, and easily the best band I've seen live in my forty years of going to concerts. Good reaction as always. The continuation video of this reaction was great, just don't drunk text anyone, that shit never works out. lol

[@jamescotner2459]

This is pretty much a Perfect Song.

[@Cultivation420]

I read an article, and they said: " We never changed, it's like we are are on a river bank, the water flowed (the times) and finally reached our bank, and it will flow past. Whether we are remembered after it's gone, only time will tell, but we will still remain in our same spot fishing for receptive minds.

[@Viccerz]

One of my favorites.. learned this bassline by ear when I was 16, absolute classic My suggestion for the next ones are Vicarious, Jambi, or.... the Holy Trinity- Disposition, Reflection, and Triad. All 3 of those need to be listened to as a single performance, because they flow together

[@christopherpalmer2529]

Would nice to hear Tool for the first time again.

[@Travis4life676]

Still gives me goosebumps after all these years. Tool are a genre in themselves. Masterclass

[@salishseacycling]

Totally agree with Eulogy. Don’t know why it is so overlooked. Hooker with a Penis is another favorite.

Aenima rips! My favorite album, it's loaded with meaning for me and is pure nostalgia.

[@thr0w407]

I have been a tool fan since the late nineties and I got a chance to watch them perform this song live at a small outside venue and during the song, out of nowhere I was overcome with emotion. I was standing there with tears streaming down my face, enjoying every second. I went by myself to that show.

[@Skurian_krotesk]

I know that feeling. You really get a special connection to a song if it manages to make you cry. I get that for specific songs from Jinjer and Heilung. Those will alsways stay close to me.

[@bigfatno]

The power of music is beautiful. I reacted the same way when I saw Judas Priest live about five years ago. Great music is wonderful.

[@73av8r5]

Did the same thing when I saw them live for the first time around 2000. The ending got me very emotional. Polo needs to see them live. It’s life-changing.

[@vonertz]

I've loved Tool since Undertow released. My 5 year old daughter heard me viewing your video. She said that the music gets in her head and makes her in a mood. And says she likes it, lol.

[@user-gz9jp3fj2d]

Back in the day when a new tool cd came out you bought it..and then listened to it over and over because one sound will catch you and you miss other things..took a while! Haha. Maynards voice is like another instrument in the songs..awesome 😁💙

Soft, peaceful, beautiful, calming . . . then louder and building but still the same . . . and now crunching and powerful and aggressive . . . but still the same thing. That is genius.

When they tour again, go see them. I have seen them a handful of times and they put on an amazing show. In my option the best live show.

[@dustincannarella8077]

Absolutely a tremendous song. Take the time to read into the philosophy of the lyrics; you will not regret it.

[@thumpyloudfoot864]

Tool's music is so amazing I wish my ears were bigger...

[@jamielunsford1]

Totally stealing this saying.....

[@aenamabag]

The lyrics are about the Jungian Shadow, and essentially growing by delving into painful aspects of your psyche that are often suppressed.

[@heavyzhouston2758]

The other day I was listening to this song in my car with my wife, and suddenly the lyrics made so much more sense to me. I've been doing major work with my therapist digging into my traumas from a past filled with abuse and pain. This song is about digging into what you've been hiding from yourself, the past pain and trauma, digging into the infected wounds on your heart, healing, and moving through the shadows and darkness and evolving to a higher state. It's very psychological, and I am once again in awe of how deep Tool's lyrics are.

[@tylerdurdan5783]

Im going thru it to brother good thing we got good music. We are always in are thoughts

Carl Jung, Frued's best student says, “Everyone carries a shadow, and the less it is embodied in the individual’s conscious life, the blacker and denser it is".

[@christalkelley6382]

I have watched several ppl reacting to TOOL but your reactions are the best in that you don't see as surface but you go deep I dig your reactions and thoughts. I appreciate everyone's reactions but you are my fav

[@AzaDio]

I am newer to your channel. I have been binging some of the videos. I appreciate when you state you have heard something and keep it real. But watching your first reaction to tool is amazing. I have a trained ear and can say I have performed many shows live. But watching how you interpret with an open intelligent mind and really capture the flow and articulations of a song is very impressive. tool is a complex creative band. I learn to reappreciate them through you.

[@braddicus300]

Thor with a guitar instead of a hammer 🤣 That's a great metaphor! This is 100% the song that got me hooked on TOOL. Danny goes nuts outside the beat on that drum feature and I'm like what... the drummer is a GOD?!?!? SIGN ME UP! It was a very different experience from just hearing Sober on the local radio station, which is not a bad song, it just doesn't even come close to this... or The Grudge, or Eulogy, or Pneuma... so many crazy good songs

[@Superlife1369]

I love how he repeated a section of the song 3 times just because it spoke to him. I do that same exact thing!

[@Nosferatuklown]

Hey man, i know its been awhile since you did this video, but im just finding your channel-thanks so much for checking out this song, this song hit me deep as a kid and it made me want to get into making muisc and get out of some of the other dumb stuff i was doing that was leading me down a dark pathm..heard this song and i went and sold off most of my stash to a guy in my neighborhood and bought my first bass guitar knowing "yea, i want to do that"

That is a great story 😊 Very F--king cool.

[@johnseward2934]

[@SifuSkip]

This song is amazing. The lyrics are basically about picking and digging through the crap from your past that messes you up and keeps you from being better. The scabs are the traumas that you allow to shape you, and picking them off exposes the trauma and allows you to process, understand, and truly leave it behind. Tool's the shit

[@dichotomous9403]

This album came out the day I shipped off to Basic. I waited outside the store until they opened at 9, binge listened, then was picked up at noon and wouldn't hear music again (only cadence) for 5, 6 weeks. This song and Stinkfist (which had been on the radio for a week or two before the album's release) sustained me through that time.

[@Gideonite]

The more I listen to them the more I become obsessed because they all speak to me that just moves me and makes me feel. Some of their songs got me through some hard times and still do. It’s a requirement too for anyone I date to love Tool. I listen to them so much. Love his other stuff too but 10,000 Days used to be my favorite but it rotates now. So glad I’ve seen them a couple times in concert. So worth it.

[@CoastPropertyBuyers]

This song was my introduction to Tool back in the late 90’s. Talk about life changing. I totally get the Thor analogy and this song def suits a Marvel or DC movie although I doubt they would allow their music to be commercialized in that way. Great reaction and love that you replayed some epic sections multiple times 🤙

[@MargalitaBallard]

The music is always tracked before Maynard ever puts lyrics to a song. It's another thing I've always appreciated about my favorite band, everyone has their chance to shine. It's not just all about Maynard, it's about the band as a whole. Great reaction btw. I'm gonna second the request for Right In Two. It's actually tied for my favorite, with Parabol/Parabola. That would also be an interesting watch. I would love to see some reactions to the videos they've done for the singles.

One of the greatest songs in history. In my humble opinion. Uplifting, in the deepest sense, both lyrically and musically.

[@thewebbqueen38]

This was another one that ripped the airwaves right in two(wink wink) I sound like such an old fuddy-duddy right now but I really miss the 90s when music like this was actually being played on the radio regularly. This was the album that had a lot of songs that I guess the general public deemed worthy of airplay. Thank goodness for it though because it brought in a whole Army of people who are still fans to this day.

[@stacyhilliker384]

My brother, Bobby, was a HUGE tool fan. Loved A Perfect Circle, too. Before he passed, we talked about his funeral. He didn’t want the typical music you’d hear at a funeral. Nothing sad. He wanted me to play nothing but Tool and A Perfect Circle at his wake. You know, it’s crazy, but my brother wanted this song played when he was buried. It’s funny when I remember the looks I got when I placed my phone under his casket… but I felt Him and I know he approved. The looks I got when I played this song as they put his casket in the ground…. He would have loved it. Love you, Babo:)

[@YeOleSkater]

If you've ever seen Tool live, you know they put on a hell of a show. They arrange the set list, visuals and dynamics of their concerts like an acid trip... They build things up slowly to a frenzy, then calm it back down multiple times during the show, creating a whole body experience at every show. I highly recommend seeing them live. It brings their music to life. I've had the privilege of seeing them twice. Once during the Lateralus tour, and once before they were really known and were way down the list of main stage bands at Lalapalooza 1993.

[@Nimbliebimblie]

POLO!!! I love your tool reactions and subbed to see more! I notice you commenting on how Maynard’s vocals always seem to match perfectly with the instrumentation of the band. Allow me to shed a little light on that. It comes down to the recording process that tool has opposed to your average band. They actually write, play, and perfect their songs first and THEN Maynard listens, contemplates, and draws inspiration from im his mates to then write and record lyrics/vocals to. This is the secret ingredient that creates such perfect accentuation and symbiotic play between the instruments and vocals. Aside from the fact that they’re meant for eachother of course! Cheers and bring on the reactions bro! Try “right in two” when you get a chance and ABSOLUTELY “invincible”

So I've been a bit of a binge of watching you react to TOOL, and I'll tell you it's really awesome and satisfying to watch you blossom into a real TOOL fan, it brings me back to when I first heard these songs back when they first came out, I can tell you appreciate this music🤩🤩🤩🤩

Now you are ready for "Kids cover 46 and 2 by Tool O'Keefe Music Foundation," select the first version. Kayla was like 10y when they recorded and did a few other versions years later, slowed down, she's grown!!! Watch it, it will give you a greater appreciation for Tool and their mad skills!!

Parabol/ Parabola together! These songs together are on another level for Tool! IMO one of their greatest songs.

ABSOLUTELY!!! 💯 There aren't even really the words to express everything about those songs taken together... Not that you could adequately find for a 20min video, anyways. The heartbreaking earnestness of the lyrics. Maynard's voice, as he expreses this story... The composition of the music. The building layers... Truly on a different level. Please have yourself a great day!! 🙂✌️

Hey Polo. You've made comments in alot of your Tool reactions asking about what that sound is, how they make it sound that way, whats that called etc. I'm a musician, I play guitar in a rock/metal band and Tool are my literal favourite band too. So I know ALOT about the music side of Tool if you want to know anything. Just post a reply to this (I'm gonna copy/paste this into several Tool videos so you can ask about specific songs and all that) and let me know what you are interested in finding out. You can drop time stamps for your video with the part in question or just give me an idea what part you want to ask about. But yeah I absolutely LOVE breaking Tool songs down myself, so I'll happily type out a 10 paragraph comment for you going into as much detail as you want mate. Just let me know whether its the music side of things, like the notes, the rhythm, the way the instruments blend together etc. or more the instrument side of things (like what they do to make their sound more heavy, metal etc, their instruments used and how that affects things, their amplifiers, their other equipment etc). I'll happily talk both or either like I say. Right, let me know if I can answer any of your questions about this song dude. Love your channel by the way!
