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!

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. 🍻

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.

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!! ❤️🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼❤️

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.

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.

I’m in love with watching you fall in love with these songs. Takes me back to when I first heard them. 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.

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 🤙

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.

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