A Perfect Circle - Disillusioned [Official Video] 

Rocked when I heard it for the first time, I was connecting the silicon obsession to our cell phones. I was not disappointed by this video.

well , this is worth spending a little more time on the phone :)

So, we just wait for people to watch on tv... wait nobody watch tv anymore. It was the same with tv back then, we all connected with something to pass life as fast as possible.

that exact thought stopped me from sharing it

wait a minute that's why the girl went back to the darkens of technology with the lighter, the video is the lighter and we need to go back to the social media and post it everywhere!!!

@earthling94 amen to that!

Good thing I never got started

Deleted social media over a year ago, and have not regretted it one bit. Social media is a cancer on the world.

Yet you comment.. I know it was 2 years ago.

C'mon

100% agree with you. Tool and APC has changed my life too and not only are they both great bands, but their music really makes you think

Tyler Keller No you don’t sound crazy! Their music has gotten me through my life and I have been listening to them from the start and still do to this day!

I doubt Tool or APC literally changed your life. That's just you giving voice to your feelings.

You didn't mention puscifur. If you haven't heard them check them out.

What about pusifier?

The tone and message was entirely written against the messaging of the right during the election cycle that got the current president elected. At least the conveyed messaging, anyway.

Any JMK related album can never be released too early :-D

@@kevinesser789 Any MJK, too! ;)

Prophecies always come early.

@@Vector_Nectar ahahaha just three letters and I messed it up... I thought I am able to deal with my keyboard - disillusioned

Christian Meunier not one of the best tho

I agree, it does not even sound like Maynard at times, absolutely beautiful.

@@DGRIFF Agreed he sounds like multiple people throughout the album. I don't really know any other singer who can double track and sound like two completely different people lol

💚🙏👌

Right??

We as a species cannot survive on our own. As it stands, society turns its back on the most vulnerable. There's homelessness, wage slavery, tens of thousands are left to die because of lack of healthcare. All in the "greatest country to ever exist." The "richest" country. It's considered rich because of Wall Street and corporations.

eww

@@heavymetalhippie9217 I'd find it too frightening and heartbreaking to live in the US. It is so incredibly individualistic, there's a huge culture of self-sufficiency, total personal responsibility (we have some, but there's a lot about ourselves we're not responsible for), it is a very convenient ideology for the population to have from the point of view of big businesses and the ultra rich. Narcissism is rewarded and if something bad happens to you and you don't have a very supportive family, you're carrion. Not that collectivism is the answer, it can also be crap. It's just shockingly extreme over there, so many people in miserable living conditions and the tolerance of ultra rich people who openly cheat their way out of paying taxes in ways that normal people can't, to avoid giving back to the living, breathing system that allowed them to succeed. The pandemic makes people poorer, or homeless, and Bezos gets wealthier. It's like the population must passively watch these giant parasites suck the blood out of their country because they are protected by the State, so they might as well like it and try to become one of them

This song makes me cry 😭. I am an island i feel.

Thank you!

Such depth, such art, such poetry Pictures and words with power The truth layed bare on the floor How did this happen Why couldn't everyone see The price of our desires The price of our participation We are guilty, all of us, if being wooed and distracted We never knew or misguided values could lead to this The Anthropocene We are at the ledge of an abyss Some you could even say 1 percent tighten there grip They know better than the masses what's coming. Theyve had the data for years They are even building on Mars and are going to put space stations in space The back up plan for the most guilty of us, and the few. With fires, floods, threats of financial calapse, and pandemic the rest of us begin to see That we have painted ourselves in the corner and the paint is lava. Biodiversity begins to unravel, the polar ice caps melt and shift, Whispers of an extinction first animals now man. Which is sad considering man took fate by the hand.

Snks

So portico what a masterpiece

The sad, desperate truth. It's here with more to come.

Daaaaaamn bro that's a deep observation 👏👏

Maynard never does anything accidentally

Except I’m watching it on youtube and I’m blasted with images of the next video to click on. It’s what I hate so much about youTube.

damn, got a non-reflective screen! Good observation though, another layer.

Yeah, it’s the black mirror

ODIEkriss or when his audience is on their phones lol it's announced at the beginning of all his shows to not bring out your phones or you'll be removed by staff

Wasn't announced at the show I attended however, I saw a sign. But... my kid called and I'm not ignoring my son.

In reality, I think he is just upset that people are more fixated on the future than the present. Enjoy the moment, atmosphere, ambience. Recordings are a mere shadow of the reality that people notoriously sacrifice, to satisfy a fax paus existence that relies on likes and followers, rather than real and exusive moments, experiences and emotions. I don't think he cares that people record because it costs him financially bust more so because it costs the recorder of that unrecoverable, and unpredictable moment in time... Your point is definitely humourous and bordering valid, but most definitely missing his point. Ps. He is trolling with the delayed Tool album. :D

And to hold up a lighter instead like concerts in the past. Now people use their phone in the flashlight mode.

I'm pissed off when people record using their phone during a concert. It's distracting and annoying as fuck. And a lot of times there's a little light on the front that indicates if somebody is recording and this can be incredibly distracting for musicians

If we were all were of the same heart and internal intention of good of Gods will. We could work together helping eachother with Love as our intention to create and manifest the greatest artwork of all. Happiness and Unity. Heaven~~~ maybe

It's not just music, nor art, but it's reality, and how we are enslaved to this manufactured prison.

😓

We are all going to get there. May we rest in peace...

This comment was written a year ago. Why is there some random short posted on that account from months ago?

​@@tomlxyz I have seen this comment on many other videos...

What are the other five songs, if you are comfortable to share it ?

true

you really had to edit that comment? lol idiot

you really couldnt just answer to HIM not to me about it? and whos the idiot here?

BIG BOSS Yes. A grammar correction. I didn’t know it was going to bother you so much.

@@Utubesuxmycock Narcissistic personality disorder must really suck, hey?

METAL AF lolol. Awesome.

whats that?

did not know that, thank u. see , that's exactly why i love Maynards work. if u care to look. there's substance there. which is more than can be said for a lot of bands. nothing obvious about it

Can you explain a bit more. I dont know what that is.

@@johnlancaster1592 Sorry for the delay, John. I'm no expert and you could just google it, but I'll give it a go. Plato has a theory called the "Divided Line." At the most basic level, it's about different levels of thought, from low to high, ranging from imagination/ opinion/ personal beliefs to, at the highest level, Reason. The Cave Allegory is how he conveys the Theory. In it, you can imagine people that have always lived in a cave. They are bound by shackles or something like a medieval stockade and have never seen the outside world, only images produced by people behind them. These people, controlling the prisoner's perceptions of the world, use a fire to create shadow puppets on the wall. Miraculously, one day, a person escapes and follows the sunlight to an exit and experiences the real world. The sunlight in the crack of the door is the giveaway in the video. Likewise, if I'm not mistaken, when the awakened person goes back to free the others, they are unconvinced and uninterested, mistakenly thinking that he is a crazy person and choose to go on believing their version of reality. In a time of misinformation, memes, trolls, bots, and the Right-Wing Echo Chamber in general, the Cave Allegory is foundational in our trying to understand the world around us. The main take away for me is this: "Why do I believe what I believe?" and "Did I come to these conclusions myself, rationally, or by people trying to control my thoughts?"

@@ryanhill9707 wow, thanks so much! Thats awesome you found that in the video, without this comment I wouldve completely skipped over this. Super cool stuff, seriously thanks!

@@ryanhill9707 I'm going to say it is more based off of A Brave New World.

Chris Hewitt I'm on a similar boat. Severe depression and anxiety for the past 7 years... and that is the same exact line that resonated the most with me. Hope you're holding up.

Gabriela Fermin Holding up as best as one can. Hope you are doing well also. Just remember you are better than the darkness.

cbd oil cures depression

Chris Hewitt you are not alone!

Are you me?

You know it. Imagine all the conspiracy theories that you have heard ever were real. We are being misled into believing that we should pick one theory or another. I believe that the virus is real - just not exactly what has been reported. The bull shit tests not testing for anything but exosomes is real - and there was plenty of evidence around to prove it. Probably still is - just harder to find now. If you are one of the people who thinks the virus is real - I think you are right. If you don't agree with anything David Icke said but you believe in freedom of speech - then you are definitely on the right track f you think the test is bull shit - I think you are right. If you believe the vaccine has nanites hidden within it to utilise future 5g technology - I think you are right. If you think Bill Gates has a hidden agenda - I think you are right. If you have heard about Bill Gate's involvement in the company that produces the modelling for climate change and the spread of the corona virus (covid-19) - I think you may be on to something. If you also heard he has involvement in the company that makes the vaccine - I think you need to start paying attention. If you also came across the clip on YT (fucken censors suck) of Bill Gates mentioning that vaccines will reduce the worlds population - then I think maybe it's time to start taking this a little more seriously. If you are even slightly worried about what's going on - I am worried we are underestimating the possible future impact. If you are in your house right now because the tv told you to - then it's time to wake up.

You took the words out of my mouth 4 years earlier. I was gonna say some of us could aspire to achieve that state of living. With courage and hope, NO fear.

Hell YES

more like, a whole album

a message that everyones know what is since 2012 ahahaha

Posted on youtube...

Let me cry with yu 2

Never checked the comments to this video, but I'm glad I did, I feel much the same

It is literally that! You are an awesome dad by teaching that to your daughther. Parenting done right!!!

Liberating Reality Exactly the point is not the use of it, it's the obsessive overuse with all social media sucking us in to constantly worrying about checking our choice of technologies... It's beautiful as usual Maynard! Reminds me of "Bodies like sheep to the rhythm of the war drum." And only "simple minded people" are the ones that aren't viewing this the right way!

how about people are so STUPID TODAY , he had to spell it out in this video simply to get his message across this is not his type of video but hey gotta wake up the stupids some how n he had no choice but to make a corny video because dumb people would never figure out the words alone they need visuals like children do

Liberating Reality

Ashley Sowers I think more than the excessive use of it it's the validation through it that is the problem. Chasing a high for likes and validating through them is never healthy in any amount.

Liberating Reality well said....you hit that right on the head and over the heads and shoulders of those who just don't get it and those are the ones who are lost as much as the ones they criticise.

kerflap very true

kerflap I am in agreement

Yes. This. Sorry to hear.

fuck the norm

You got the same picture as I.

full tip

AND I

The problem is that it is the norm.

Malagant been around for at least a decade. Look up perfect circle songs

At least a few songs I carried through my childhood

it's part of the lyrics, Austin.

Lol my bad XD

This line actually perfectly describes A Perfect Circle as a band.

Hey man! My name is, Thomas William Cogburn, and I’m from Santa Clara, Ca. I now live in Dos Palos. Yep. It’s a small town but it’s got a lot of love to where it feels like the whole world is here sometimes. Hey... if you ever want to talk to a friend my number is +12098298455. I’m straight btw FYI...nothing wrong with any preferences... It’s about having allies and life is waking up so I guess we should too. BR549

Cute

I feel you. Tears first time. The reference to Pavlov technique soooo true.

Our last hope is no longer on the WH. We are banana republic and any hope we actually had is completely gone thanks to media monopolies and power over information. Everything from BLM to tearing down statues to cancel culture stems from this social media b.s. It's created an echo chamber millions of strong and cancels any alternative idea.

You are spot on.....

Michely Felix I like this modern interpretation of Plato's Cave.

Thanks for posting lyrics!

Find a way- MJK

Michely Felix holy shit!! How did you get hold of this?

Ric Schmeelk 😉

Craig Baldwin what? mesmerizing and hypnotic? man, you are the person he is talking out. you have to find a way to break the cycle. to see the deception and be above it.

maynard

Yet

real music has been always over there... but it's music that you have to find by your own

+feu u have never been more wrong my friend the day good music dies humanity dies with it

+外国人说中文 amrica cannot be helped it is DOOMED

There’s more real music out there than ever before, you just have to look for it

Same.

That is A Perfect Circle., If you have ever heard any of their other music

I hope

* !Y

Oh look, an atheistic pseudointellectual

slayerBO2EPC 2019 “Respect and dignity.” Furthermore: (“Respect and dignity!”) • “Respect and dignity, 2019?”

yeah but heaven has obama train

Be an aware human-being, now you're on the same level. Cheers. 🍻

LOL. Nice.. Similar story.

You gotta lot of catching up to do my friend!

never is too late, time is perfect

Better late than never, i guess :D

Welcome :)

Brian Ball well said bro

Brian Ball Extremes are bad. We need it in moderation

Иван Михайлов exactly. It's good to have a balance of all things in life! You can still own and use a smart phone and have a life at the same time! They can actually help you explore nature more since I know I've found multiple side trails in the middle of nowhere using google maps that you'd never find on an actual paper map! But some people I do agree just want to sit in front of a screen their entire lives!

Don't blame the tool blame the operator. This technology is of benefit and detriment to our society the same way any tool is.

I doubt he hates the internet or humans progressing with technology, just the way we let ourselves succumb to it completely and forget who we are

The message wasn't subtle at all. It was stupifyingly clear and sententious.

I know right. As soon as I heard this it put me right back to it! These guys and Tool/ Maynard are amazing.

I've traveled too far with this song.

bullshit

no shit

Lmao

What is this from?

DEEP

sixfeetaway how's that considered being an asshole, i see alot of misguidance around here...

Perfect

That's the most beautiful hallmark card I've ever heard

I agree

Sir we all have. Willingly been rewired by clever agents

NOW! 4/23/21

Sounds amazing...

I need your trip playlist because hell yeah!

Had a similar experience with mushrooms
