Finally got the copyright dispute resolved and reposted the video. Thanks everyone.

'How many times can they change time signatures?" Welcome to Tool. "How much emotional maturity does it take to write that?" Welcome to Maynard. Lateralus is really where Maynard started to settle into himself, I believe. It's where he learned to let go and to embrace what was around him. He'd taken all the lessons from the work he'd done previously and started to put them to use. Though you can still see edges and sore spots in later albums (through all bands I'm talking), after Lateralus, things come down a notch or two lol. He's a poet through and through. And no, no PhD. He actually went to art school after the army.

[@randybrooks6836]

It is refreshing to watch someone understand what is being conveyed. Please continue on this journey. You will not be let down.

[@medhead964]

As a therapist, you should really do most all of the songs off their album "Lateralus". All the songs and lyrics on that album have the same theme.... relationships, and growth, both emotionally and spiritually. "The Grudge", "The Patient", "Parabol/Parabola", "Ticks and Leeches", "Lateralus". You just did "Schism", and the rest of the lyrics are just as inciteful. I think you'd really appreciate their messages. new sub here.

[@MusicHealsHQ]

Welcome aboard! Thanks! 🙏

10.000Days Wings for Marie is the most beautiful eulogy for a mother ever. Please give a listen❤

[@TalanXavier]

And then listen to Judith by A Perfect Circle for the other side of his pain ​@@marmarsmandalas

[@BarbaraGarner56]

I like the fact that the characters here are not skeletons but don't have skin... it indicates to me the very open and raw feelings

[@MusicHealsHQ]

I like that. Thanks

[@Locostacos6930]

If I ever have the misfortune of having to go to couple's therapy and Schism is playing during the session, I might try to marry the therapist.

[@MusicHealsHQ]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@betazep]

With Schism, I think the music video is interesting - but in many ways not really related directly to the song lyrics (this one is probably more connected than other Tool songs, though). The lyrics in "Vicarious" kind of paint the picture of the tools umm Tool uses - people stare at the repulsive. Also - maybe in some ways the music videos are meant to keep some people away - people who do not try to see beyond the surface perspective. Loved your reaction. I hope you work your way through all Tool songs. (even one's you have heard before - just for the lyrical analysis) Subscribed! ❤

[@aidancampbell5644]

Half a lifetime ago, I listened to this album and loved it for its music. Now I am studying psychology and realising how much really good psychotherapy principles are wrapped up in the lyrics.

[@Rumpaldstiltskin]

I love watching a new TOOL fan being born

[@alexanderednie1205]

Maynard is a genius. You could do PHD level dissertation on his lyrics

[@joshkimes8332]

I sent this song to my ex-wife (wife at the time) to listen to, thinking it described our situation at the time. She replied that I was weird. I knew in that moment that there would be no reckoning between us. We tried individual therapy with couples therapy at the culmination. I put forth the effort but she did not. This was the end of our beautiful love story. Another Tool song that I made my mantra is Parabol/Parabola. You guys should give it a listen.

[@Schafer078]

"SCORE"

[@TrianglesAndCircles]

Tool, PhD. I still haven't introduced my dad to Tool. He has A PhD in Psychology but I'm not sure he will enjoy it. Understand it yes. We could have hours of conversation about just this one song.😊❤

[@MusicHealsHQ]

That sounds great! 👍

[@betazep]

Maybe try just the written lyrics? I think it would be so interesting for his perspective!

[@TrianglesAndCircles]

@@betazep You know what? That's a great idea. I might just do it. Present it on paper like the poetry from his raising. Thanks.

[@betazep]

@@TrianglesAndCircles I wish you the best of luck and strong connections with your dad. :)

I just used the lessons taught in this song

[@diannabern8407]

My 22 year old son plays this song on guitar! On point! Narcissistic father!! I wish I could upload a video to you! He’s an old soul! So talented but so hurt!!

[@vdog22100]

I love your videos man, please do more Tool!

[@arronknox2884]

become pneuma!

[@adubs7720]

You should check out songs from Puscifer-the humbling river, momma sed and perfect circles gravity… softer than tool but killer all the same!

[@chrisfrench9257]

I could have sworn I watched you react to this one already but I don't see a video of it in your playlist. I'm probably mistaking it for 46 & 2. Tool is right up your alley, brother. Lateralus and Parabola are from the same album as Schism. I highly recommend you check them out as well when you can get to them. Cheers!

[@josuahmanuel4324]

I said the same thing. He posted it a few months ago but must have removed it

[@MusicHealsHQ]

Copyright dispute finally resolved and uploaded again . 🙏🎵

‘I KNOOOW THE PIECES FIT’

[@JheredStern]

Oh you are going to love "The Grudge", go on listen to more tool, run down that rabbit hole...you have just begun to scratch the surface.

[@the1khronohs40]

I love what you are doing here! It’s so beautiful to experience the impact of Maynards lyrics on someone who truly understands them! And at the same time you seem to fully appreciate the music as well! ❤

[@MusicHealsHQ]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@realDose]

The main question here is not if Maynard has a PhD, but whether the PhD got a Maynard already. I aprecciate what you do btw.

[@MikeyMike2503]

A lot of Tool’s videos are similar in nature, but have an intricate meaning. They are most definitely in a depth that you are apparently very aware of. New subscriber here. I’ve watched many of your reactions and they’re great.

[@MusicHealsHQ]

Wow, thank you! 🙏

[@MikeyMike2503]

@@MusicHealsHQ loved your Ren reactions as well.

[@TheKman1220]

Its so great to witness someone get it. Welcome aboard brother 😎

[@-TRIAD-]

4:14, how many times can they change time signatures 🤔 🛠️T⚙️⚙️L🛠️ , “Hold my Beer” 😉👊 Great reaction sir, please consider the tracks Intension and Right in Two off their 10,000Days album.

[@jimmorris67]

Same name but not related I’m pretty sure.The band Jinjer would be a good choice.Try Teacher Teacher the official video to start with unless you want to try and tackle their Pisces the live session.Good luck Jim

[@LudusAurea]

You should do the grudge if you haven’t. There’s a lot to unpack there between astrology and more grounded ideas.

[@muzictherpy]

The pieces that fit are supposed lovers that Maynard know they fit

[@natev9334]

You’re the office Dr for the Tool Army. Welcome Doc

[@alyssachan7321]

Would love to see you react to RØRY - “Alternative” would be a great one. “Family Tree” or “The Apology I’ll Never Receive” would also be good choices. She really epitomizes the healing power of music.

MAYNARD FOR PRESIDENT

Thanks for watching!

You have to do Tool -pushit , you'll love it just as much as this one tbh

Yeah you already did this, why might this be? :) Yeah, gotta be reopload

[@MusicHealsHQ]

Reposted now that copyright dispute is resolved. 👍

[@jamiew899]

I thought I already watched this one. Is it a repost? It looks like the one I watched is no longer on the video list.

[@MusicHealsHQ]

Reposted.

[@RosettaStoned462]

I was thinking the same thing!

[@zachzabala]

I really enjoy the channel content! You have gained a new subscriber! I love your NF reactions. I would love to see you react to musicians like Sik world. Ivan B. Witt lowery. And of course more NF! I thank you for making this channel as I believe you have such an important Job on this platform and in your private practice. As a current graduate school student for social work I look to channels like this for inspiration and motivation to keep perusing this amazing field of work. So thank you!

[@Stupha_Kinpendous]

Somewhat OT, here, but if you genuinely want to get more out of Tool, just listen, listen, listen. When you're to the point where you know every single upcoming note in every song on any given album, it all becomes the most soothing music you've ever heard. At that point, just listening is wonderful meditation. But don't worry--you'll still get more out of it, even years later. Edit: My point is, getting blown away and amazed the first time is normal. But keep at it. There's plenty more.

[@MusicHealsHQ]

Thanks for watching!

[@MakisupaPolicia]

I could use you as a therapist.... Where you located?

[@MusicHealsHQ]

I appreciate the kind words, but I’m not accepting new clients. I recommend www.psychologytoday.com to find a therapist near you.
