TOOL Forty Six & 2 LYRIC REVIEW ~ Old Composer Prog Rock Reactions

[@adamkelly7128]

I could listen to somebody talk about Tool all day...saves me the effort

[@KeyOfGeebz]

God knows I'm not short on expressing my thoughts on TOOL! :)

[@hunterfitch5951]

@@KeyOfGeebz with some of Tool's songs it might be better to research it's meaning before listening... it will open up a whole new level of understanding. 46 & 2 is a prime example, whereas to the average listener they sound like cool lyrics but are in fact referencing work and theories by Carl Jung. That's not to say your own reaction isn't correct but Maynard's lyrics are often deep on many levels and even for me as a life-long fan - I now have different interpretations of the same song due to my own growth and understanding over time.

[@Kevin_Fiol]

@@hunterfitch5951 exactly. Another great example where a little research won't give anything away, but absolutely helps in fully graspjng the message(s), are the songs about how he dealt with the trauma of his mother's health. You're able to get much more depth to how he works through the stages of grief (along with other messages 😊), when listened to chronologically . (Geebz the songs I'm referring to are Jimmy, Judith & 10,000 days pt 1&2)

[@franknicastri9201]

As a recovering alcoholic this song is huge for me lyrically. If you're familiar with 12 step it's sounds like pretty much a step 4 in song form. IMO 46&2 references clearing away the baggage to become one's true self

Oh man, as a psych student, I love this song so much. We actually listened to it in one of my courses when we were covering Jungian theories! Best day of class ever 😎

[@seanvillalta8109]

I would have loved to have been there!

[@FrshChees91]

I had a great English teacher in high school who played us songs every now and then. From what I remember, we listened to Wherevery I May Roam by Metallica. Subdivisions by Rush. Hurt by Johnny Cash (a cover of course). He was my favorite teacher for more reasons than just exposing us to great music.

[@theomniscientvoid9553]

Been fascinated by Jung ever since I came across him years ago. I think he might be my favorite author that I've ever read. Shifts everything.

[@tpaulalex724]

Have you covered the archetypes yet? It helps to make so much more sense of this. It actually helps explain a lot of things including the idea of toxic masculinity. BTW, my definition of toxic masculinity is not that all masculinity is toxic. To my mind, masculinity/femninity exist on a continuum. Toxic masculinity would be at the extreme end and embody the primal idea of the masculine (the archetype). In other words, as Jung argued, we still carry that capacity with us (in the shadow). We have simply evolved mentally and control those primal urges. If we do not, we get toxic masculinity and other horrors. Jung was a genius!

[@jacksmith4460]

@@tpaulalex724 "toxic" anything , via Jungian thinking would be a repression of sub conscious aspects, which then through time have to express them selves through sub conscious behavior, The archetype idea (from my understanding) is more a collective mechanism, and is almost the vehicle for that subconscious expression. I would suggest your negative association with the primal aspect of man is not how Jung would see it. To view it in that sense would be a repression , the primal aspect (male or female) is in all of us. Denial of it creates internal fracturing, it has to be accepted and expressed, but in a positive manner, the toxic part is the denial and/or repression. It has to come out somehow, and if a constructive outlet is not found, it will come out as toxic

[@neozakk_]

I’m sure you know this Geebs, but the beauty in Tool is that Maynard is the “afterthought.” He doesn’t pen a single lyric until Adam, Danny, and Justin compose these tracks. What he’s singing is actually a physical response to how certain tracks make him feel. Which is why, like you pointed out, he has such perfect dissonance with a lot of this music. He’s not just adding a new layer of sound. He is becoming a new layer of sound within the composition. Hope to see more of these! Hope the shoulder is feeling better! Awwwright!

[@mortmortmort8908]

I know they say that's what they do but I have a really hard time believing that he has no input on the music itself, especially when it comes to Wings for Marie.

[@DuggieDug111]

@@mortmortmort8908 haha yep! I agree. Especially the early days. I mean, being a Tool fan myself since Aenima, one thing that’s always annoyed me was putting those guys on a pedestal so high that the fans start “schooling” other fans and claim their more connected than others

[@neozakk_]

@@DuggieDug111 certainly wasn’t gatekeeping Tool here. Simply making a comment about a widely accepted truth in their music. Sorry if it came out crappy. BUT - This is almost unequivocally the reason why Fear Inoculum took so long to record. They admitted that they weren’t happy with any of the music and couldn’t send any of it to Maynard. Big reason for the APC and Puscifer tours/records and nothing on Tool’s end. Maynard writes plenty of music. He had no music to write to for Tool.

[@MusicMissionary]

@@DuggieDug111 do you ever think they kind of mock their own fans for putting them on a pedestal? Like the message is think for yourself yet a lot of fans seem like followers? I think of Maynard looking out at a sea of t shirts that say "tool" and thinking what a bunch of tools. The logo can look a little bit like "fool."It's like a meta layer of "think for yourself" saying "we're not gonna do that for you."

[@neozakk_]

I have two things to add to this: 1.) Most new Tool songs are debuted as instrumental interludes in their shows before they ever get released on albums. Why? Because there aren’t lyrics to those songs yet. 2.) Maynard stands in the back stage area of Tool concerts for a very specific reason. He believes that he is the least impressive piece within the music (while that’s absolutely not true). He has no lights on him at any point during a performance (and don’t point me to that outdoor show from the 90s in broad daylight where they perform Sober - I’m referring to recent years) while every other band member has blinding white lights shining down on them. Again - I’m not gatekeeping here. I’m just shocked that my initial comment seems to have gotten such backlash. As again, I thought these were all widely accepted truths for years now.

[@d.hodgsky]

Completely understand what you mean when you say that there can be a different level of appreciation once you look at the lyrics. There's so many songs I've listened to without fully knowing the lyrics and just think "yeah I dig this, my ears like this". But then you look up the lyrics and sometimes the meaning behind the song and it takes it up to whole other level. Usually a more emotional level.

[@thewildhealer541]

Lateralus album made me realize this

[@rajeevmasilamony8395]

Hey Geebz. Big thank you for explaining Tool in terms that I've been struggling to find for years. I've been playing guitar since I was 12 and Tool captures my musical imagination in a way that I couldn't describe until I watched your videos. I also have dabbled in music production for a few years so when you start talking about how Tool uses mono v stereo and how they may be setting up their sound space I find it absolutely fascinating. Cheers and keep doing what you're doing, it is appreciated!

[@kayarnold3151]

Before you stopped it, I could see the visceral reaction. I could tell this was a new experience and really made you think. It's the same thing TOOL does to most fans. We all have our interpretations amd I know so many reference Jungian theories, but this also reminds me of shadow work. Looking into our past to recognize and heal our traumas. Live seeing this new journey for you Geebz.

[@ngcastronerd4791]

I'm glad you re taking a shot at he lyrics. It's one facet of Tool I appreciate a lot since it adds depth to an already arguably quite deep rabit hole. Next, "Rosetta Stoned" I believe it's a tribute to Rush and by far one of tool's best songs.

[@sikthsikthsikth]

I looked up the meaning behind the lyrics yeeeears ago. I was coming out of depression myself and feeling change in myself, accepting myself for who I am. This song became like a mantra for me at that time - and weirdly knowing the meaning behind the lyrics just reinforced that feeling rather than changing it.

[@DoomsdayDisciple]

I’d highly recommend you read Jung. It has given me massive insight into myself, and of what others are perceiving in the World around us. If you are brave enough to accept the truths you discover, the good, the bad, and the monstrous!! Not for the faint or weakhearted! Good luck in your journey. Not easy, but worth the effort!!!

I didn’t realise I heard music differently until a carol was playing and a girl asked, why is this a Christmas carol, it’s so morose. The lyrics were, I cry for baby jesus.

I like the way you are putting your own take on the lyrics, rather than trying to reinterpret what the band were trying to say. Music is such a personal experience and we each interpret it in our own way, including the lyrics. That’s why good lyrics are often mysterious or ambiguous. For me, this song is about metamorphosis of the soul. Mahalo. Keep riding the wave.

I would absolutely love hearing you analyse, both lyrically and musically, Pain of Salvation’s to me most painful song: ‘Rope Ends’. Thanks for this! I really enjoyed it and look forward to seeing more of it. I’ve been watching you for some time, and hope my very humble coffee donation will help your shoulder heal faster. Get well soon!

Love that you're doing lyrical breakdowns!!

[@atlarsenal]

Your reactions have been great but now you see what we have been missing from them by not considering the lyrics. Keep it up!

[@Natsirt666]

One of my all time fave lyrical Tool songs. Great one to start on mate. Letsgooooo!

I feel this review has given a small look into you Geebz. I just want to send big love brother, you'll get through it.

It is always so enlightening to understand somebody else's interpretation of a set of deep lyrics. Everyone truly is correct, and each interpretation may be incorporated into all of our lives for the better.

Maynards phrasing is impeccable 🌀

Keep these lyrical videos coming Geebz You are the man I have learned and am continuing to learn from you brother. Actually my son is stationed on Hickam AFB and it would be an honor for him and I (when I visit) to meet you one day Wings for Marie 1/2 and Right in Two are a totally different experiences knowing the lyrics I look forward to all your content in the future #toolisapowerfultool

So good to see you're doing lyric breakdowns now! Yesssss! That was a pleasure to watch. I just love getting your thoughts on Maynards lyrics after having enjoyed your analysis of the music. This channel is just getting better and better!

I’ve never been a lyrics guy…simply just rhythm and music/beats…I’ve always read over the lyrics within Tool and they’re without a doubt brilliant. But my goosebumps come from the instrument that is Maynard being an extra or lead instrument within the band

Great choice to do a lyric review sir
