TOOL - Forty Six & 2 | REACTION

[@jimmyavsfan24]

Can’t wait for my first live concert with Tool in January. Can’t wait to hear them live.

[@ralphvillanueva5558]

The unique musicianship and the time changes hooked me right away. I'm 69, I have seen and heard a lot of music. These guys are special.

[@adammichener987]

Was this your first time hearing them?

[@ralphvillanueva5558]

@@adammichener987 I first started listening to them about 10 years ago. My son's plays drums and he played one of their songs.

[@gandalf679]

I am right there with you, Ralph, I grew up in the 60s and 70's, so due to that early immersion into the music of "our" day, I became a classic rock radio jock, so, when doing some research on "current" bands, this band popped up, immediately loved them...that was years ago now, and I enjoy seeing others reactions to this band...Rock ON!!

[@dan.j.boydzkreationz]

I knew it as soon as I listened to the intros to Stinkfist, Eulogy, H., Useful Idiot and 46&2 on the Ænima CD in April 1997.

[@vovindequasahi]

Your age fits perfectly with the quabalistic meaning of this song. 69.

[@713tink]

One of my friends only listens to rap/hip hop, and I had tool playing loudly in my truck. She looked at me and said, “oh, I like your cowboy music!” 😂

[@dreeg3641]

I love how each member gets equal play time, and how Maynard doesn't even stand center stage. Such an amazing band

[@beauqc5587]

I never know what to expect here. I had heard of TOOL, but had never heard them, to my knowledge. REALLY enjoyed this track. Will definitely listen to more on my own. Thanks again, Boys. You're amazing!

[@brucemarshall9521]

I was working in my shop many years ago and the local FM rock station played ''Vicarious''. My ears perked up. 🤘

[@redpillsforall5840]

Forty Six and Two 1 of Tools greatest songs by far that bass line is insane

[@clab5864]

Watching you modern day 3 Musketeers, react to this song, makes me fall in live with it's greatness ALL over again!! Thanks guys!!!

[@wen-nz3sk]

I'm with Ty on this one, "The Pot" and this song. 🤔 GAH!! All of them. 🥳 My teenage son turned me on to Tool, said "Ma, you gotta hear this band." He played me "Sober" been hooked ever since. Tool is special, unique, great. Absolutely love the layers and all the instrumentals, kinda 90's Rush for me. More Tool please!! 🔥❤👍🏽

[@truther4life]

Simply the greatest band of my lifetime!! I'm 52!

[@73av8r5]

My favorite part of seeing them live is experiencing the end of this song. It will blow your mind and also your head off. 🤯🤯🤯

[@Varek.50]

"OH MY GOD" lmao!! Me every time I listen to these guys. Welcome to the greatest band alive. Keep it going.

[@TennisOnion]

Sober was my intro to Tool when I was younger - still a killer track

[@rnrweb1968]

Awesome reaction guys!! Absolute fire 🔥 The song gets better with every listen 🎶 👏 More Tool please!!

[@shannonwoods2413]

You haven't already?? You really need to do a reaction video to the O'Keefe Kid's Foundation cover of Forty Six & 2. You'll be blown away!!

[@qwerty.4450]

I wish all my friends listened to tool like the middle guy

[@Shawn0428]

I like how the guy on the left gets closer to his mic to hear the lyrics at the beginning of the song. . Lol.

[@kerrijohnson2303]

This is Tool at their best in my opinion. Lyrically it is so unbelievably deep and profound that if you don’t already know the ideology of Carl Jung that Tool is referencing here, you should definitely go read up on it. It really helps you appreciate this song so much more. The go react to the OKeefe music school kids covering this song and absolutely killing it!

[@lenni-hazels]

The Grudge was the turning point for me. It's complex without being too noodly. Every part is there for a reason, as with every Tool song. ;-)

[@Bigtime1998]

The Grudge is such a great freaking song!!

[@nicholasives8816]

Great reaction guys, i been listening since there beginning 93 , Im 51 livin in the south... drummer Opiate my sis turned me on to, she was gothic , Bad ass LOL 😂

[@kerrijohnson2303]

I’m 53, lived all my life in Louisiana. I didn’t hear a Tool song until about 2006, but from the first song I was hooked. I’m not even really into really heavy or hard rock/metal music but this is so different from any heavy rock ever made. The music is so complex that it’s hooks get into you deep not to mention the insanely deep and profound lyrics that just defy description. I’ve been learning guitar for about 18 months and this guitar is so over my head it’s nuts. My 27 year old daughter is self taught guitar for about ten years now and while she can play some Tool, she said it’s so hard because of the way his guitar is set up..tuned or dropped down? From normal tuning or something like that and she said the guitarist is so good at ear training that he can pull off all kinds of tuning and sounds and make it sound like magic that is crazy hard for other guitar players. Of course the drums need no words. You obviously know lol! Im a word nerd who has and does read anything I can, I have a minor in psychology and I love anything beautifully deep..especially songs and Tool combines words, philosophy, ideology, pain, knowledge, paradoxes and what if’s/what can be into a whole package that is everything a band should aspire to be!

[@litawells4264]

Tool Army here, check out (Lateralus) this song has touched the hearts of almost everyone who listen to it. Yes it is a rock song but it has elements in it that speaks to your soul. Listen to it and you will see what I mean, it is a ride.

[@jaemyrick5277]

Thank you for finally discovering TOOL . You guys have to react to Tool’s frontman Maynard James Keenan’s side project. A Perfect Circle . Two Recommendations: their songs “PET”& “Outsider”. Freakin brilliant! & deep! A Perfect Circle listening experience takes me places musically like I’ve never known. Danny Carey is a frickin S.O. B. on the drums. I love it. I love APC. ❤❤ Have a great Tuesday. Stay sane.

[@jon-pauldupont5746]

The lyrics also speak to the Jungian Shadow Work ideas in psychology. Great song. A favorite of many bass players

[@shannontreiber1070]

Bass line? The Pot kills it!!

[@md22773]

This is the first base line taht Justin brought to the band when he joined...

[@brookehornback1896]

I was sick that I missed Tool last month in The Ville! Clever gettin this out on 4 6 22.❤Another band I started to like as I learned to play drums.

[@mikeelko8527]

Thanks for taking my suggestion from the March Madness poll guys. It’s the musicianship that makes Tool. Everyone in the band is top notch and can do their own thing in any song. That’s why I got into Tool being a Prog rock guy. Went from Rush to now Tool carrying the torch, in my opinion at least

[@edrueter9]

You guys had a nice night at the Roxbury moment going for a while.

[@digimortalone2759]

The kids at O'Keefe music did an amazing cover of this. Well worth a view.

[@idigthat73]

I just can't buy/stand to listen to those lyrics coming out of a ten yr old

[@edwardmunoz7853]

@@idigthat73 imo everything was 🔥 except the vocals. I didn't like it 👎

[@Salomon_G]

@@edwardmunoz7853 And they were auto tuned all over too

[@theawakener4360]

The music spoke to me when I first got into them during the Lateralus album….then the lyrics started sinking in probably a couple of years later….they somehow planted a seed within me to become who I am today as a human being

[@Sigma1_969]

Cool reaction guys.... Tool are in my top ten bands of all time.... Lateralus is a deep listen, a song that is based upon the impossible understanding of the fibinace sequence.. totally insane.

[@markwillis675]

Wanna hear Maynard in his not-so-quiet voice? Try "Ticks and leaches."

[@thomasharris4942]

Tool is the prog rock/metal successor to Rush. Us older folk are happy they even exist.

[@jacksmith4460]

AEnima , when it was released was the best thing I had ever heard, still pretty much is, its got better over the years unlike some albums that age badly, At the time I was a big grunge head, and they were the first band I loved that really embraced some very technical Ideas, in such a musical way. Also their combination of light and dark, positive and negative, the dynamics, the engineering/production/ sounds they have for each instrument/member are incredible. Their ability to go from the most delicate to full on controlled chaos, on an epic build up, is unmatched (with an exception made for Opeth who to me are the Black/Death Metal Tool) Their range in texture, soundscape, Rhythm and variations on themes, is just brilliant and their attention to detail is also stunning. AEnima itself as an album, imo is the best sounding album ever produced both in terms of song writing and audio production. To me its a Gold standard. As someone who makes Prog Metal (mainly Instrumental stuff) everything they do is to be admired. AEnima is a unique album, with a never again attainable perfect balance of warmth, clarity depth and also Rawness (its not the right word, but its closer to this than every album that followed), Lateralus is a cerebral/spiritual masterpiece, 10'000 Days is almost a blend of AEnima's balance, with a sound closer to Lateralus, and some of the attitude of Undertow Fear Innoculum is a great showcase for their musicianship , but feels a little for the fans rather than for them, its still great, but its not as real as AEnima, as creative as Lateralus, or as Diverse as 10'000 Days. It feels to me kind of like Undertow on steriods, like if they wanted a similar vibe musically with a much better sound, and much longer songs with loads of technical bits AEnima trumps them all for me, its a perefect storm of a record. I liked Undertow before that, but Aenima was the one that made me really take notice, and it also lead me to other things later down the line like Botch, Dillinger Escape Plan, and Opeth etc etc etc

[@PrizmSeeR]

So we'll put. As musicians we notice all the levels/instruments, how they blend and we feel it too, like everyone else. It's like listening in 5d for us. Tool ticks all the boxes and they do so magnificently. They also inspire on top of that, by aspiring to dare to be their best.

[@heatherturner6955]

My goodness - you read that perfectly fast. .😄 Love the intro!! Like the change up at 8:49. So different but such a vibe. Sorry, may be in the minority but i like this one better than the other two. Whoa what an ending... ❤❤

[@jimmymac4559]

I just live for those last beats at the end

[@chickenmonger123]

This one was my favorite for a while. Which is my favorite Tool song changes every few years. Vicarious first. Then The Pot. Then 46 and 2. Then Jambi. Then The Pot again. Now it’s probably Lateralus. Fir now. Well over a decade, and they are nearly as good as those first couple listens

[@redpillsforall5840]

7empest is the greatest

[@kima.4268]

Now watch Nandi Bushell, a British Zulu 11 year old who plays drums (also bass, guitar, sax, sings) play the intricate drum parts. She got to play with the Foo fighters last year. Lenny Kravitz and others. She is the future of rock and roll.

[@anthonyfaccaro7118]

I just came across this channel so i dont know what you have already reacted to, but the 3 i would pick are eulogy, the grudge, and invincible. Those 3 pretty much cover the spectrum of tool not counting the way out there ones likes rosetta stoned etc. The pot seems to be many peoples pick as well. Hell just do them all lol. You wont be disappointed.

[@MrDuanepalmer]

I've always liked how unavailable and mysterious they were. Before KZbin, I had no idea what these guys looked like. and I've been a fan since 93.

[@scottmccumber5810]

Brother I'm a Command Sergeant Major in the TOOL Army, and what hooked me was their Opiate EP. You've gotta show them some material off Opiate. Either Jerk Off or Sweat. Please explain to them this was the first material TOOL ever released. It's FIRE.

[@jeffreyletourneau299]

Just the best

[@calvingreen5202]

You guys crack me up...seriously;-) This is one of my favorite songs, by Tool. I think you should check out Eulogy, Tempest and Fear Enoculum

[@whitejosh444]

I'd also say descending

[@jasonm8017]

They are like RUSH (Influenced probably) 🌱They are difficult to put into a category, On Their Own! ✊🏽❤️

I bought this album on vinyl in 1996. I thought my record was skipping at the end of this song. 🌀

What is your favorite TOOL song? The one I just listened to!

[@christopherdunlap7028]

Love the reaction. Tool is unbelievably unique. They are insane live. You should react to Parabola.

Tool - Pneuma. And then, you need to react Danny Carey Pneuma Drum Cam

[@nancymartineau-bauman6018]

As soon as it started to play I knew what song this was. i had forgotten the name. For me this is better live at the concert.

A Perfect Circle - Hourglass

[@arnoldcox9128]

Danny unleashed!!!!

[@TimothyCobleJr]

Thanks guys. Tool Army wil follow you

[@jeffreyletourneau299]

Song is an all-time great. Watch a lot of music reaction videos, honestly look forward to yours most. Would be cool if you did a Jane's Addiction reaction. Something off the Nothings Shocking album like Ocean sSze or Idiots Rule. They put out some S tier music, and I think are a very influential band.

[@David-su4is]

Would you good people consider checking out "Going out of my head" by Junkhouse? Or perhaps "If I had a Rocket Launcher" (Bruce Cockburn cover) by Blackie and the Rodeo Kings?

[@maximegervais2213]

"Eulogy" next ? Intricate song also, whole album great!

Isn't 46+2=48 chromosomes, which is a joke on tool fans? Yes it is, and yet we don't still have our checks from the government?! Yeah...I went there... ;)

[@jaemyrick5277]

Not to get political. I need to say something. Hearing about the mass shootings, at a Fourth of JULY parade! in the news. I’ve been feeling very very terrified for our Country and Society altogether. If you gentlemen want to reply back, go ahead. But if you prefer not to reply I’m fine with that too. Thank you for your channel.

[@sonyaleduc2941]

No quarter as well

[@Rob337_aka_CancelProof]

There are some of the best musicians ever but they're not geneticists and the idea could at best be pseudoscience. If we added two chromosomes that would put us the same with chimps and the number of chromosomes has absolutely no bearing at all on intelligence or evolved status. Actually we only appear to have 23 chromosomes instead of 24 because two of them fused but even more interesting than that is the fact that a y chromosome is just deteriorated X chromosome it looks to be on its way out in the long term. The reduction in chromosome number was caused by the head-to-head fusion of two ancestral chromosomes to form human chromosome 2 (HSA2) and may have contributed to the reproductive barrier with Great Apes

[@sarahp9086]

Every song is uniquely and perfectly epic.
