A Perfect Circle - By And Down The River [Audio] 

And Mike Patton!!

❤❤❤❤

Maynard touches your soul and self awareness. The only other deep in the feels man's voice is Aaron Lewis - Lost and Lonely. Ball like a baby.

Yeah, I don’t know what it is. In 2003-2004 I overheard my newly found girlfriend saying that this guy Maynard’s voice makes her panties wet. I was super insecure and pissed off, like who the fuck is Maynard. Now 17 years later I get it. My panties aren’t wet but I get it.

Check opeth out Mikael is a god he's from Sweden

So does Dave brockie’s.

Bro u ain't never lied

A straight fact 💯

Beautifully

❤

Kerry Griffin wow thanks😅

WOW foreal

Elocution *

Thank you posting the lyrics. I love Maynard, TOOL, APC, and Puscifer. Take care!!

I know it's been over a year... But for what it's worth, People that appreciate tool and a perfect circle, appreciate it in a deeper way than people who aren't really that into it. Fans like us put a lot of emotional energy into listening to and absorbing those beautiful songs and beautiful messages from Mr Maynard. I heard the 13th step when they played it live when they toured when the album was released, I really looked up to Maynard at that time, I hang on to every word he said. And during that show he told me that this album " the 13th step" That this album goes out to anybody that's ever lost anybody to addiction. So my friend, I believe that these songs are for you. I hope you explore them more deeply now that you know that. Peace in your heart my friend, move forward into the chaos, and change what needs to be changed, and make right what needs to be made right. Hope you prosper. 🤘💀👍🖖

That is oddly beautiful.

He's returned with the same story on another song ik damn. Lol ima find the collection of this dude.

@@zacharykeffer9358 I shared the story of my mom dying on several different tool and Gojira videos. On the comments section, and I didn't post it exactly the same on every video, but it was similar. But that's because that all the different songs and different ways reminded me something about her, so I would comment. But perhaps he is going through the guy that committed suicide, maybe he is going through his entire music catalog and listening and trying to learn more about the mental state of their hurt friend.

I lost my wife a year and a half ago. I hope she meets your brother and jams to the same song. ♥

Intension

I literally can barely listen to anyone or anything else. 😍 some have jesus I have Maynard

Sad day when he passes

Starting off with tears in my eyes from the last song: this will be a journey

I'm not one to be categorized but I am okay with being a Maynard worshiper.

His lyrics and what he says and his ideas were always my draw

The Live Show to this song is just amazing 👏 😍

He just change in a way Physiologically with tone that Manor jeans Keenan never had images expression in the song it’s amazing

This masterpiece, Right in Two, Brena, and Humbling River..would need 10 hours and a whiteboard to explain the meaning they've had and still have to my life. ❤

Green Valley -Puscifer.... goes along with it...imo

I don't think Maynard wrote this or humbling river

@joeb134 well, you're wrong

@@thebatman6201 Based on what exactly? I'm am about 95 percent sure that I saw an interview with Maynard where he explicitly states that Billy Howerdel was the lyricist for the album Eat The Elephant. Maynard provided insight in how to sing the song and tweaked some words here and there but the actual lyricist was Billy Howerdel

RIP

@@matthewanthony4606 Wow, you come of as an asshat. I hope that you weren't saying that at Nycki's expense.

You're not the only one in that aspect in regards to this jewel of vinyl.

the more i listen the more it seems to be so on point . keep your head up. much love . many blessings

Same here brotha. Stay 💪. 🫡 to those who’s going through shit but continuing to push on through.

Yes I agree I was hooked first time I heard them still am 4-ever will be

I wish I could say the same. I found a lot of these songs to sound like Thirteenth Step leftovers. Many have the same drum beat and tempo. I just felt the album overall was a bit boring. I guess nothing will ever be able to compare to Mer De Noms.

@@Diosys Exactly my thoughts. It's a good album in and of itself, but it feels like it's an album from another band. It feels "off" and a let down as an APC album.

@Verne Dimatteo Or...let's just respect that people have different opinions, instead of trying to disabuse people to conform to our own; especially on a subject as subjective as music.

@Verne Dimatteo You've made a lot of asinine assumptions there. You can disagree with my opinion all you want, but at least try and represent it accurately. I don't want a band to conform to my musical tastes, I want the band to freely express themselves; but that doesn't mean I have to like what they've produced. For the record, I do like this album, but it's a clear departure from the type of sound APC has produced prior, and IMO sounds almost like a different band; all the qualities I loved in previous APC albums are mostly missing in this new Album. It's a fool's errand to try and disabuse people of their musical tastes.

priceless🤯🥳🍻

It takes about 25 listens to figure it out. This song is a masterpiece of music. The lyrics, voice, buildup, bass, drums, the harmony. It's beautiful.

Me too... I didn't listen till years later. The price of tickets really turned me off to my favorite bands. Sucks

The lyrics though. I mean.

very Cure influenced and I likey

AGREEEEE

Same

Damn man, I haven't noticed that before. Another awesome little thing added to my collection of Maynard's brilliancy.

A little late to the party with how Maynard integrates word meanings into annunciations.

The man is an absolute mastermind. It's probably my favorite part of the song too.

❤🧡💚💙

Same

That’s because it’s Maynard James Keenan haha

I hear the Cure in this too!!

@@JeNnMjOnEs1 🤘🤩🖤

@@cleverunicorn 💯 percent correct my lady

i was searching for this, thanks for the self validation

Jesus loves you :)

@@zondwhomlovesjesus8444 I hope you’re joking 🙃

Did it? Has it? Are you okay?

It has for me

How could it not?

there never will be, MJK is a genre

???,!!!....

Moving in and out of the shadow It's no easy mission, holding on to how I picture you Showing only bits and pieces 'Til the light betray you and your empty allocution Searching your eyes for a hint or a trace of humility Searching your eyes for the saint is an act of futility Searching your eyes for a hint or trace of it Searching your eyes for humility Searching your eyes for a hint or a trace I'm still searching, searching Showing only bits and pieces 'Til the tide betrays you and your empty elocution Float the Piper by and down the river Carcass crippled underneath the pounding waves of adoration Pied Piper, float on down the river Bloated carcass crippled me, the weight of adoration Moving in and out of the shadows It's no easy mission, holding on to how I picture you ;)

Nadan Korenic already got the lyrics up bud

holding UNDER how I picture you. Drowning the illusion of the false perception you once held of someone.

holding UNDER how I picture you

Rumor is that the newborn’s first word was “Maynard”.

Hey Cayce 👋My daughters song 🎵was SO BY WAR

gangster :)

Chill

It's definitely up there, but Orestes imo is there best overall sound wise and Maynard's vocals and Billy too

Road trip?

One of my favorite songs of all time.

These are slightly off towards the end

Ty!

A perfect song for these days

Who does the original? Not familiar

Oh I see, it was a Puscifer track. I'm not big into Puscifer, my bad.

@@CraigKeidel It was still APC, but it was featured on their greatest hits album Three Sixty as a new single. They re-recorded it for this album and there are slight differences between the two.

Hoping for you to have strength, peace and comfort. Yesterday was my Mom's deathiversary, every day is a fight. They are still with us but in a different way.

anish sengupta psych!

anish sengupta Tool album is also this year, so...

Absolutely. And as far as Tool and Puscifer goes, in the wonderfully twisted. (Tool), tortured (APC) and tuneful (Puscifer) world of Maynard there's absolutely a place for this holy trinity. Hail, hail.

Nope sargiest unbound or vergrav netherstorm is album of the year..try again poser!!!

Absolutely

And done. Lots of travel to get there....worth every step. Absolutely incredible. See you again in December for the sequel 👍

@jean winkleman i think you havent listened to him live lmao, no offense, Tool is my fav band but he doesnt sing good live, he has one or two lives from 1996 where he nailed it.

​@@Dienusha1red rocks.

@@Dienusha1 Our favorite artists get old at some point, so I might as well get used to who they are now. And I think Red Rocks is phenomenal. Though, there were some very good 1997 and 1998 lives where he is at his peak. And he appears to be recovering his ability to scream, based on some more recent shows.

That’s freaking horrible

The job of police officer tends itself to psychopathic people. Or… perhaps I have that backwards. Either way….

5years later... "Tool" shirt on B & B was the 1st I knew/heard of them lol😁😁

I skipped it for the longest time, thinking it was the original. Not that I didn't like it before, was just burnt out on it going into Eat the Elephant. One day while driving it played while I didn't have a second to skip, and oh boy was I shocked. For the next month or so I would tune into the album just to hear this version.

Amen

🖤

You got it bb

Trianide Curld.yas these lyrics are golden

it is awesome!! Eat it. Bit by bit.

Comparto... By and down the river es el mejor tema de este excelente disco.

Valentín Adán convenido!

I honestly agree !

I was wrong... this changes... everything
