Your reaction is raw and genuine, don't apologize for being real! Love your reaction!!!❤❤❤

[@elizabethferrari1346]

It's a about life in general. Everybody suffers in their own way. He's portraying that. Not necessarily drugs. It could be anything.

[@aldopagani1981]

​@@elizabethferrari1346this song is life❤

[@theig298]

I watch Tool reactions religiously, like every day one of my favourite things to do is once I get home from work and walking my dog, the earbuds go in and i watch someone fall in love with Tool. This reaction is one of my favourites so far. Thanks for your honesty and stories. Give Pneuma a go. Not the live version yet, just the studio version. You won't stop after that. Looking forward to the next one. Spiral out, brother. 🌀

[@ryanmadej9521]

This is what I do too. It's inspirational.

[@alexl8065]

The more you react to tool, the sooner you'll realize you've been reacting to your favorite band all along :) great reaction my man

[@korodwyer1270]

I get emotional every time I listen to Tool They’re genius.

[@kylec1411]

Its Carl Jung that i believe speaks of "the shadow" which the lyrics are loosely based around i think i read. And stepping through and embracing your shadow. This song helped me get sober from a 10 year cocaine addiction. Tool has been a tool in my life to get better. And grow. And learn. they opened my eyes and mind. forever will love and thank them for that.

[@Sabbat7001]

I beleive you may be thinking of their song 46 & 2 which heavily references Jung's topic of "shadow".

[@mercychoke4475]

Maynard was playing the characters of the addict & addiction itself, imo. Powerful song. Tool are the GOATS. Great reaction. Liked. Subscribed. #TOOLARMY 🌬😈🌀😜🤘

[@sharilynbratton6476]

Parabol and Parabola are two great Tool songs that you have to listen to together, Parabol runs directly into Parabola so they need to be heard as one song. This is a beautiful duo, the lyrics are so beautiful about our choosing to be here and how this life is a spiritual journey.

[@scottmayo7545]

I'm privileged to hear your story and your direct relation to the song. Thanks for sharing and you have TOOL army support as a new lifetime member.

[@JesusIsOneOfOne]

One of the most powerful performances ever.. the words.. the posture.. his wardrobe.. its all intentional to make you see the whole picture.. brilliant performance

[@kevinabraham9260]

I’m 7 months sober after 23 years….. I’m 36, and I swear Maynard in a pink onesie is the addiction monster inside my brain it looks like this exact performance on a loop. Love tool so much

[@chrisgamble5843]

You are a perfect fit for T00L. T00L is a perfect fit for humans like you. The T00L Army welcomes you!

[@thomaslong2212]

TOOL has many deep, healing tunes. You wouldn't think prog rock could be healing, but TOOL proves it can. I like to think of them as Priests of Sonic Truth. They are not afraid of going deep into the human condition, and I have personally found their music to be therapeutic.

[@adamcotton2121]

You're not "off-topic." You're spot on. You're a beautiful man.

[@waynefontaine5533]

About the lead singer: he's a US Army vet, and when he went thru Basic and AIT school, etc, he did SO well, the Dept of the Army offered him a full ride scholarship to the most prestigious military school on the planet with that being West Point...he turned it down to pursue music...Maynard is an absolute savage...🤘🏻🇺🇸

[@emilykanany7333]

Don't apologize! Tool is forces you to take a journey into the deepest parts of your soul. After decades of listening to them I still have a profoundly intense emotional reaction to their music. The lead singer also leads the band Perfect Circle, which is equally mind blowing.

[@ryanhoard3842]

That was a fantastic reaction. Thank you for sharing your experience with everyone and congratulations on your sobriety. You should be incredibly proud of yourself.

[@ReflectionTool637]

This long time Tool fan is certainly more about the music than the vocals, but MJK here is next level performance art. Genius!

[@biddygow]

This is the best most honest reaction to Sober that I’ve seen. I wish you the very best dude 🌀We’re so proud of you 👏🏼 x

[@brookehornback1896]

Thanks for such personal words and showing other's that they can overcome and be sober. ❤

[@erinhutchins3008]

Anyone who has ever NEEDED and WANTED to "sleep forever" or "never sleep" knows this man's pain. I cant listen to this song very much. It hits too hard. Thank you for ur honesty

[@christophergomez8830]

He embodies the lyrics he sings. Friend went to a tool show Said Maynard Face a wall the whole time on stage and at first he was like tf is this. And he said by the end of the concert he understand the meaning behind it.

[@steviekc9057]

Thank you for sharing this reaction. Never apologize for being genuine ❤

[@celsus7979]

They are so good live! I think every addict can relate to this song, thanks for reacting!

[@elizabethferrari1346]

I don't believe it's just about addicts. It's about life in general. Anything can make you suffer. That's what he's portraying I believe.

[@yasha.hartberg]

It's rare that I would recommend the official video over a live performance, but you really should check out the official video of this song if you haven't already.

[@benf1111]

Let it out man...good for you. So much of their music is an out of body experience. It's no joke that their music is a tool for growth.

[@edrueter9]

I've really enjoyed your honesty and reactions. I hope you continue with the Tool journey.

[@emmullgn]

Maynard is a true artist, his performances are meant to make you think and feel. Your genuine reaction is moving, and there is power in that. Stay strong and keep fighting ❤

[@lisahillis8973]

No judgment from the Tool army. It's all about self reflection and growth...sounds like you're digging in deep and that's beautiful ❤

[@lowellupchurch1609]

When you have any sort of history with substance abuse this song just cuts right through you. I drink too much so I listen to this to help motivate me to chill out on that

[@fakefunbags]

Powerful reaction to a powerful song. Thank you. I've known many people who are here now because they felt understood in their deepest, darkest moments by the music of TOOL. Your journey is just beginning. I love to see it! It's the next best thing to being there myself so many years ago. Keep digging🤘 46 & 2 next. Look up what 46 & 2 means first. It'll help

[@hello-dh4hx]

Goosebumps!! Everytime!! ❤

[@jerrydaman]

Still loving your Tool reactions. Honest and real... not over hyped garbage from some others. Keep doing you bro, keep being you.

[@luvL3e]

Just wanted to add I turned 62 this Oct 11th SOBER for the 1st time in decades!! Yea!!!! U can do this!!

[@DMKali]

Thank you for sharing 🤗💙🌀

[@ktwdrummer]

Speak your mind bro, that’s what the music is for. we all have a past.

[@jimmyavsfan24]

I absolutely love this man’s spirit. Stay blessed bro awesome reaction

[@GreybeardMO]

Maynard is a genius, this portrayal of addiction is an absolute work of art. Enjoyed your reaction to it. Raw.

[@gilbertspader7974]

I love watching people see this for the first time. I can tell the depth of thier soul when they see Maynard and the song hits them. The head nodding stops the eyes widen the jaw opens. Don't apologize for being real brother cause I feel you.

[@ellielangford2497]

Lateralus and Right in Two gotta be next!

[@Necrostoner]

Don’t apologize for being emotional, man. Music is beautiful that way.

[@danielgoodson703]

Transported and possessed...touched and emotional. Tool never dissapoints.

[@aaroncole3941]

YES! TOOL!

[@kathyhadipour6598]

You are one of the most raw, genuine men I have ever encountered. Tool always brings out my hidden emotions. Amazing

[@theresadaly3762]

You are my favorite song reactor dear James, & happy that you cover all son genres too! Thanks for your honesty and never be afraid to let your emotions out. Congratulations on your great progress in kicking the pills, and giving up alcohol! It is very hard, but you can do it. You have our love and support each day on your life journey. You will help many other people this way as well. Continued prayers for you. I noticed 'Mother Mary' in the lyrics too which made me happy. Sometimes good and evil get mixed-up in our brains, but hopefully we follow our dreams and make the right choices only we can to make our lives better. Take care. 🎉❤️💙💗🙏🙏🙏🙏🌹💐🌷💕💕🎵🎶🎼🎹🎤⭐️🎁🎁😇😇💗💙❤️🎉

[@linzyaz920]

No words. ❤

[@bryanforis1839]

This about someone who wants to drink all not to show up for work he wants him sober great all round

[@PriestessOfNothing]

You've always been 100% genuine and its very much appreciated. Pills is hard, and could kill you easily. I had been in a couple perilous situations myself. I'm glad you stopped. ♡

[@Sloofdme]

Hate to sound like everyone else. But. Welcome to the TOOL rabbit hole my friend. Love you and your realness mate.

[@toddj36]

This is what this song is for. To bring out the real the raw. Appreciate your reaction. Appreciate you brother. I felt it too.

[@toothnet1]

Your words are pretty healing too man! Well done!

[@whitejosh444]

Im right there with you. I went through the same pill BS . Stay strong. Listen too " the package" by a perfect circle. That song changed my life

[@chrisphillips6996]

All Tool songs are about getting closer to you spiritual self and getting away from the matrix.

[@khristianacampbell3356]

This song made me a Tool fan! Those of us who truly understand the lyrics……. Enough said…… WE CAN AND DO RECOVER!!!!

[@Trish150655]

Thank you for opening up a bit about your story. I’ve been a Tool fan since ‘93 I was 13yrs old & I heard Sober on tv. They’ve been my fav band ever since, I’m 43 today. I’m glad I got to see u react to this song. Thank you for sharing. Off to the next tool song! ❤️🌀👊🏻❤️🌀👊🏻

[@akven0m]

The look on your face at the beginning was priceless. Shock morphing into deep intrigue. And I believe it was authentic. Great reaction! Hold that line, my friend!

[@aimeewangberg1181]

I have seen them 7 times and it is such a spiritual experience.

[@trentsutton896]

Got me tearing up bro! Thanks for this reaction

[@dominicfergie]

TOOL will be there for every single one of your emotions and then some. They are LEGENDARY. Beautiful video my friend. Stay strong.👊

[@Mazzini11]

"I am just a worthless liar, I am just an imbecile. I will only complicate you, trust in me and fall as well." An addict talking to themself.

[@violindylan]

This is EXACTLY how my “addiction” to Tool started!!!

[@christalkelley6382]

Bless your heart! I'm so proud of you getting clean!

[@Andrew46_2]

Maynard is a huge fan of Karl Jung who was a psychiatrist who said you have to incorporate and overcome all the negative sides of your "shadow self" to be a healthy person. That's why he talks about shadows alot.

[@Andrew46_2]

I know that's a cursory explanation but you can read online for more information.

[@dudemanbro2714]

I’m watching this again living vicariously. Oddly enough another song. I don’t listen to metal like that but tool speaks to me somn bout it. I’m also rewatching this. Recognizing your emotions and vulnerability as bravery and I thank you. I was messed up. Hurting my family. I’ve went through rehab and all. Everyone should. Even if not drugs. Everyone’s addicted. Phones, media etc. it’s hard out here. Stay strong brother

[@TeakersTV]

The shadow is in reference to Sigmund Freuds "The Shadow". It refers to the darkness that lives within all of us and the acceptance of this darkness allows us to overcome it and keep it at bay rather than be all-consumed by it. 10/10 would recommend looking into it!

[@chrisbrey9783]

This song was made for you, without you even knowing. I appreciate you.

[@melaniewalker4060]

I love watching people watch Tool. I love bonding with a stranger that doesn't even know im bonding with them. ❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏

[@davem287]

I resonate with you bro, I'm from the other side of the world but like many many people I've been there but your good heart shines thru, this is what reactions should be about pure honesty

[@lowellupchurch1609]

Thanks for sharing your story, dude. Candid honesty goes so far with the audience. I cant stand watching reactors just pander and act how they think the audience wants them to. Glad you're here with us today to share your story man. You da man.

[@user-sn3jo2wn6o]

This song hit me like that too man. He's (Maynard) like a wounded but very angry animal in his demeanor. But his words are profound to anyone who *really* knows. Your tears show your strength and your resolve.

[@luvL3e]

Me TOO darlin! I was on dilaudid for 33yrs!! EVERYDAY or sick as a dog! It took me a whole year n a half to get them outta my system. I went to 1 rehab after another for 10 mos cuz i was homeless living in a tent in the woods for several months (at 61 yrs old after living not just the "high" life but a wealthy 1 loosing everythg!! My half a million dollar home bought n paid for while in jail!) after my 4 siblings died from substance abuse! Then my dad n mom died of broken hearts no doubt ontop of just being in their 90's) I hvnt done an opiate now for almost 2 whole years! Good luck on yr journey n just know A LOT of us understand n our hearts r with u!

[@LanceThompsonKssooner]

God bless you 🙏 Great reaction. Love the honesty.

[@wesa5436]

You gonna love this band dawg

[@duckfann13]

My brother is dealing with the pill monkey currently and when you mentioned about yiur struggles with. Pills , it made me really want to show your video reaction ro my brother toaybe make him hear the good angel on his shoulder to stop the pills. Tha ks alot for your genuine reaction bro

[@babbotfinklestein9513]

Ngl lately been my guilty pleasure watching new Tool fans being born

[@carthuscrass2343]

Usually when Tool talks about shadows they're referencing Shadow in the Jungian Psychology sense. The Shadow is the part of your consciousness that lies under the surface, whether it be parts of you that you cant accept, or just cant understand. Understanding and accepting The Shadow is the path to knowing who you really are, and consequently, true contentment.

[@moonnugget4598]

🐱🙏🏾 When I first listened to this song as a teen in the 90’s it was about something completely different than what it means to me now in my 40’s. We can be addicted to SO many things. ❤️❤️❤️

[@ruidos38]

my congratulations for your honest reaction, you interpret me a lot, every time I see this presentation I see something new, the music the lyrics the interpretation is disconcerting, intimidating full of passion, the easy side of the is the one that many choose to treat for god der being a good human being costs you a lifetime.. all my respects to you. Regards from Chile South America

[@bubbasboyngirl]

Bro, Tool is a live changing experience. It's a journey that will change your perceptions. Lyrical and sonic wizards!

[@moonbubbles3046]

This was a stunningly beautiful reaction. Truly. I could see you feeling it. Sending mad love you way and holding you in my heart, brother.

[@courtneybailey7020]

TOOL is one of if not my favorite band, most of their lyrics are deep and have many interpretations depending on the listener. I loved your honesty and bravery in talking about your personal battle which is a war I have fought within myself as well. I was very moved by your reaction it almost brought me to tears like when I first heard this song long ago. Keep doing your thing and congrats on making it out the other side of the battlefield and staying sober. I know how hard it is❤❤❤ Liked and subscribed 🥰

[@crayb420]

Haha every song makes me cry, their powerful performance is so full of emotions 😢also going through what we've been through, respect

[@1monsterthumb]

It's ok to cry. That's how we become better. Thanks for sharing, that can be terrifying and you are obviously a brave person. Spiral Out

[@calvingreen5202]

Amazing reaction!!! It's a blessing that you can reflect on your past experiences with honesty and openness. Hopefully, your story will be catalyst for saving someone else's life.

[@ConnectingODots]

Thank you for sharing this

[@How2KillACop4C4B]

This hits way harder when you actually struggled with addiction

[@user-tx1uv3cs9k]

Nailed it. ☝️☝️angel and demon fighting in his head

[@arkansaucev9310]

Some of us who feel this way won't be around for long so the reaction resonates 🙏

[@superturkle]

lot of reaction channels out there; youre one of the real ones. keep up the good work

[@GamingHistorySource]

Praying for you. Tool really hits home with their music & means something different to everyone. Listen to Stinkfist. It'll shake you too.

[@TheBradsk1379]

Congrats on ur recovery!

[@darko2407]

You got a new subscriber just for your authenticity, you arent alone my friend, many of us are fortunate we are still here, and there is nothing left but to take advantage of our 2nd chance. Well come to the Collective Unconscious Tool Army

[@michellemcnair4825]

Yes, playing a character…another song along similar lines in one of Maynard’s other band A Perfect Circle is The Outsider…about watching a friend go down the addiction spiral….dont apologize for sharing your story..sharing may help others dealing with the illness of addiction in their journeys of recovery. ❤

[@rmcaudio7041]

Fantastic genuine reaction. Take care and keep it up. Am having a brother who is mentally ill and has a drug problem. These lyrics cut deep but also gives some comfort. There are more people struggling. It will get better though, in time.

[@C.C.Sophia528]

I’m glad you’re off the pills! Me too! You got this!!!!

[@steveswartz6707]

Your reaction is great!

[@ethosfm1262]

The Shadow aka your dark subconscious mind aka the Evil Kermit meme. The shadow isn't just negative...it is all the hidden parts of your psyche. Get this though...in complete darkness and total light the effect is the same...you're blinded. So the subconscious is the shadow in which you cannot see AND the light that is so bright that you cannot see.

[@joechurch7]

Right In Two is a great song about Angels in heaven looking down and judging humanity. Lost Keys/Rosetta Stoned (Two track that need to be played together) is about DMT and Alien Abduction. SPIRAL OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@user-rd3np9gl8h]

It still gives me chills

[@pjsebadoh5412]

I am the same... I feel the same, this song strikes a cord with me....love you man✌️
