Reflection (TOOL cover)

This one really hurt my hand... so there some, er, touch-ups on the guitar line...

[@ouchiedumpling2552]

I adore Maynard, but gosh darnit I love hearing your amazing voice and these stripped down versions. I'm actually able to appreciate the actual lyrics because I can understand them! Oftentimes I can't do that with the original studio versions. Too much instrumentation on the albums maybe? My ears get distracted😂

[@peterspiker9960]

That’s funny, while I’ve been doing these Tool covers I’ve learned a lot of new lyrics I had no idea about…

[@BobCorraro]

You should drop a cover album on Spotify 👏👏 amazing performance

[@bobdejager4121]

he should definitely!! currently i have to switch between Spotify and yt eery few min

[@RosettaStoned462]

I don't have a favorite Tool song, but if I absolutely had to choose one song in this world to listen to, it would be this. This was so well done. I'm impressed.

[@danielmtz9260]

Never thought anyone would come up with a cover of this song. Great stuff as always

[@andrewgraham8561]

Finally the KZbin algorithm is working and sending me things I need to watch!! Awesome work.

[@theredlogician4743]

YAY! NEW PETER SPIKER DROPPED!

[@jakecameron2976]

You are a force my man. Thank you for this blessing.

[@brennanunderwood7222]

Beautiful cover, mate. Your voice is wonderful for Tools music. Thank you for sharing your art.

[@tomaszcytrycki936]

Mogę tego słuchać na okragło. Dobra robota.

[@talha8749]

one of my favourite Tool songs. You always do them justice :)

[@fredpen5839]

Absolutely amazing 🤩

[@chadhunt2487]

Bravo! Great cover man

[@kian3319]

Dude your Tool covers are just on another level! You reduce them to their core very creatively and on an acoustic!!! Genius! Please keep pursuing your passion. Sooner or later it's gonna happen. 🤘🤘🤘 Cheers

[@peterspiker9960]

Thanks mate, much appreciated! I’ll run out of Tool songs eventually, they need to put out another album!

[@tycarnine3855]

As an old school Tool listener, I did feel like the new album was like lateralus b sides. Instead of a progressive direction like their previous works. I enjoyed your original works more than the new tool album. Just sayin.

[@kian3319]

@@peterspiker9960 Well, there's still A Perfect Circle and perhaps also Puscifer. Your cover of Orestes was also perfect, so I guess there's a lot left. We can't count on Tool for a new album :)) Besides, if you can cover Tool this good, I'm sure other artists' songs would be great as well. AND there's always making tutorials for your most popular covers! That usually brings even more audiences. Dude your covers are getting more and more noticed in the Tool community, because they are very good. So definitely a tutorial is going to be well appreciated. I know that I would definitely love to see one. Cheers

[@joefreqlink712]

Fucking hell man. You took my favorite tool song and did the best cover I've ever heard of it. Kudos to you

[@Nicolas-wo8ji]

Super creative and beautiful cover of one of my favorite songs. Just love it.

[@peterspiker9960]

Thanks man, very happy you liked it 🤘

[@Jadenity]

Another great cover! I really like the percussive tapping at the beginning and end.

[@Carnivora2024]

this song is a masterpiece, as is your cover, Peter! :)

[@cristy7381]

Yeah I know lateralus gets the limelight as their magnum opus but I think reflection is really one of Tool's best songs for sure.

[@RickHardcore]

Very well played and great guitar sound my friend!🎸

[@peterspiker9960]

Thanks man! 🤘

[@danjo_hh]

dude youre amazing i need to learn this - always loved this song so much

[@tasosplat3589]

[@a_a_orlov]

Dude… you make amazing covers! You FEEL the vibe! Please do culling voices!

[@joaoteixeira9630]

[@peterspiker9960]

Thank you! Glad you enjoy the videos 🤘

[@brettclevenger2218]

I think I’ve seen Most/all of your Tool covers… this one is amazing as well. Have you done Disposition yet. I think you have a fantastic and unique voice. I’d love to hear your version of this song

[@michaelthegreat44]

So awesome...I mean perfection would the percussion on a loop, but dude, you are so freakin good

[@derekforeal3297]

Absolutely fucking outstanding bro

[@climbaz5402]

[@toddwendling3732]

So pleasing to my ears.. keep up the magic u make....

[@aidan_tv0]

Sounds like Chevelle X TOOl LOVE IT!

[@jslavoie01]

My favorite part of this song have always been the vocals, I'm in love with this version that put them at the forefront. Beautiful!

[@benjaminyoud6214]

Dynamite! The way you switch so easily to percussion as well 👌

[@krd39117]

incredible

[@fatmanbhkbjorn]

Crikey!!! Yeah, you should definetily drop an album ❤ no discussion. Amaaazing, like all your other covers.

[@letitrejo9332]

I love this so much! Great Voice 👏👏👏

[@tipet2323]

Outstanding!!! Love from Texas!! Any chance you can cover Undertow next??!!!🙏

[@toddwendling3732]

Definitely a new favorite

[@epac]

Lovely

[@bernardomesilva]

I have come curiously close to the end though Beneath my self-indulgent pitiful hole Defeated I concede and move closer I may find comfort here I may find peace within the emptiness How pitiful It's calling me (calling me) It's calling me (calling me) It's calling me (calling me) It's calling me And in my darkest moment, fetal and weeping The Moon tells me a secret, a confidant As full and bright as I am This light is not my own and A million light reflections pass over me The source is bright and endless She resuscitates the hopeless Without her, we are lifeless satellites drifting And as I pull my head out, I am without one doubt Don't want to be down here soothing my narcissism, I Must crucify the ego before it's far too late I pray the light lifts me out Before I pine away (pine away) Before I pine away (pine away) Before I pine away (pine away) Before I pine away So crucify the ego, before it's far too late And leave behind this place so negative and blind and cynical And you will come to find that we are all one mind Capable of all that's imagined and all conceivable So let the light touch you so that the words spill through And let the past break through, bringing out our hope and reason Before we pine away (pine away) Before we pine away (pine away) Before we pine away (pine away) Before we pine away

[@crabalockerfishwife5660]

Love it

[@lololsflslfslflsfls]

your last vocal sequence at 7:16 is fucking amazing good job!

[@peterspiker9960]

Thanks!

[@user-hu3gh4hr1x]

Everything you do by tool is spot on . Love the vocals, love the guitar skills. I do have a request if you could do black label society, Still born acoustic

[@peterspiker9960]

Thanks mate! I’ll check out that song.

[@kevinhugh5411]

Dude. Very legit

[@jefferykennedy919]

Hell yeah man!!! I love the vocals! Definitely gained a new subscriber, don’t know if you’ve heard of All Them Witches, but I bet you do a killer cover of any of their songs!

[@peterspiker9960]

Thanks man, l’ll check them out!

[@jonlallande3385]

With the mic! Let’s go!!

[@noahsultan9690]

Peter you are a fucking INSPIRATION my man holy shit! I would gladly subscribe to a patreon of you teaching us how to play tool songs on acoustic haha

[@peterspiker9960]

Thanks mate! I don’t know much about how Patreon works, but I’ll check it out 🤘

[@tycarnine3855]

Something special, about someone seemingly not special.

[@vadymdavydenko]

Hey, outstanding job! Is it possible that we'll ever hear Rosetta Stoned performed by you? Just asking :)

[@peterspiker9960]

Rosetta Stoned is so frustrating because I have it completely down and love to play it by myself BUT! I don’t know how to get around Maynard’s unusual vocals at the start of the song. If I ever come up with a solution I’ll definitely cover it 🤘

[@gitbox]

This is actually kind of amazing. Ive been listening to the original off and on since it came out in 2001 and your version really makes the lyrics stand out so much more. Ive had your version on repeat for the last couple days. Is there a place to buy these versions?

[@lankyloon5906]

Not too sure if its possible, but if you managed to do Disposition, ill forget that you are a collingwood supporter :p

[@lankyloon5906]

Amazing cover by the way dude, you are unreal ❤

[@theredlogician4743]

Please do Sober next!

[@peterspiker9960]

Alright then! 🤘

[@Jadenity]

@@peterspiker9960Hell yeah! Brass Against just did an AMAZING Sober cover, too, in case anyone else here is interested in their music.

[@theredlogician4743]

I love brass against but I was disappointed they didn't use the other male vocalist they usually use for Tool@@Jadenity

[@acbeats3994]

Hey man, how did you learn to sing? Did you have any formal training? You sound amazing

[@peterspiker9960]

Thanks mate! No formal training for singing, just been at it a long time.

[@acbeats3994]

@@peterspiker9960 wow that's super impressive ! Do you have any tips for a beginner? I can play guitar decent but I feel like my voice is lacking. How do you go about learning to sing the songs ?

[@peterspiker9960]

@@acbeats3994 I don't have any technical advise other than to sing all the time, to the point of irritating others. Whatever control I have I owe to using my voice a LOT.

[@Toolfanboy27]

Meh. You aren't playing the main riff right. Better singer than guitar player for sure

Ok kiddo
