@@mitchellwilliam95 I have the odd number obsession (you'd laugh at the 7 alarms set on my phone)and my last step has to be with my left foot. If I just can't take another step for whatever reason, I have to at least tap my left foot one more time haha.
he wasnt patient enough, this is my favorite tool song, then rosetta stoned. The Patient isnt simple its actually very detailed, especially the intro before the lyrics start... the music is representing time and if you listen closely to the intro the music morphs itself. and the way Danney Carey lets his symbols ring sends a pulse of energy.
I think The Patient is Maynard’s mom. This is from Lateralus, which came out in 2001 and she had been paralyzed for years at this point. Imagine sitting next to your paralyzed family member, trying to keep them company and showing them love, but how the tedium would really get to you after 20+ years. Despite that, his mom keeps the faith and in some way inspires him to do the same, against his own judgment.
I actually checked the comments, expecting someone to call it out, but after scrolling down for awhile and seeing nobody bring it up, I figured I’d chime in. As with all music and art, it’s not necessarily essential to know what the artist intended, as much as it is to be able to draw some kind of personal meaning from the piece. But, in this case, so much of Maynard’s writing became influenced by his relationship to his mother, and I think it adds a lot of depth and nuance to many of Tool’s songs, if you know the background information.
The patient is him. Its about his issues with the band and all the lawsuits they had been facing as well as his struggles having to wait so long to make another tool album. "If there were no desire to heal the damaged and broken met along, (his listeners) this tedious path ive chosen here (playing with tool) i certainly would've walked away by now. Just my opinion and thoughts.
Just found your channel yesterday and I can't stop watching. I can feel the music through you and it feels like I'm reliving the moments when I first heard Tool.
Preston, I’ve loved watching your love for this band grow. These guys are the modern day Pink Floyd and really underrated. It’s awesome to see someone get it. Your reactions are the best! Thanks bro.
Lyrically, it’s not the most thorough Tool song. It’s the message behind it that carries through, and it is by any stretch, my favorite. As a long time sufferer of depression, I relate to this song on an emotional level and it is very close to my heart. Two lines stand out... “If there were no reward to reap, no loving embrace to see me through.” And... “Must keep reminding myself of this.” Those two lines can make the difference when you feel like you’re at rock bottom. It’s a reminder that, this too shall pass. The old saying goes that patience is a virtue. It’s also a lifesaver. Even in your darkest times, there are ALWAYS greater things just over the horizon. You just have to be patient...
#1. You have a beautiful smile. #2. I was having a shit day. i watched your video on my lunch break and now Im in a better mood. #3. Watching you experience Tool is like getting to experience for the first time again, I appreciate that!
When this album was released the anticipation was beyond limits. The reward was listening to a masterpiece of musical art that did not disappoint. All TOOL heads had to be patient.
I just discovered your channel and I absolute love your reactions to TOOL songs 😂 they have been my favorite band for 27 years. I've raised all my kids on tool. It pleases me to see you enjoy the full tool experience with comprehension and appreciation for the lyrics. Enjoy
The simplest things whether it be a musical production like this one or a smile given to you by a stranger walking by noticing you are having a bad day can have the most profound effect on you. Yes, this may not be the depth of complexity that Tool can bring, but the message is driven home very well. Preston, thank you for the intro change! Props on THAT production! As you will say, "now, we may proceed". Keep of up the reactions!
This video is my new inspiration. Not just the song, but your insight and wisdom along with it. Between my troubled marriage, my job, which is difficult in today's society (I don't want to say what my job is), and my struggle for sobriety, this hits home. Thank you for this. Patience... I'm trying.
Your the coolest man! You're like having a really eager friend sit down and experience a song for the first time, and your just hoping they love it as much as you do! Pink Floyd and Tool are my two all time favourite bands as well. You nailed it when you said it's about "experiencing" the song not just listening to it. Keep it up man!
Love these reactions bro! New sub here and so glad I have. Its been awesome watching the appreciation for the genius and you growing as a fan. Love the song!
You know what's crazy, dude, I've listened to and loved this song since Lateralus came out, but Tool albums are never published with printed lyrics. I had this ritual back in the day where I'd get a new CD, put on the headphones, lay in bed, and just listen to the whole album all the way through following along with the lyrics, but I never could do that with Tool. I came to appreciate the instrumentals and how the vocals acted as an instrument, and read so much about how Tool lyrics are up for interpretation (hence why they're not officially published), so you watching this video right now and reacting to both the music and the lyrics is like uncovering a whole new layer of meaning and depth and quality to this track (and other Tool tracks you've reacted to). I honestly really appreciate what you're doing because you're helping people like me get even more enjoyment out of some old favorites. Thanks man!
I've been a Tool fan for a long time, but there are just some songs that you revisit after a long while that just re-excite and surprise you. This is one of those songs.
Th for doing this song it's been a fan of mine for years.you have the best reactions on RU-vid.myobservation,with Tool is, the lyrics are the door into the song but the music is the room! Th and have a blessed day,bro
love ya bro. commented here before. i'm 55, been listening to this type music my whole life, heard them all. Amazed and for some reason proud that your two favs r PF and Tool, guess what, mine too. That's what great music will do. an old white man and a young black man can have the same two favorites- cool as hell.
Only time I ever saw guitarist Adam Jones move his entire body to the music on stage was to this song, during the climax towards the end. A really powerful track
Preston, I'm an old school rocker, have kids that are most likely a good bit older than you. I enjoy watching your reactions and journey exposing yourself to new music. Since you love "details", I'd like to make a few suggestions. I'll list the band name and song, and I think you'll thank me for them if you happen to react to them. For details, another band right up there in my opinion with Pink Floyd and Tool is a band by the name " Porcupine Tree", listen to Arriving Somewhere, But Not Here. I think you'll like them. For Black Label Society, try listening to Concrete Jungle or Sold My Sole which is off of Zak's solo album. For Pure Guitar Instrumental Pleasure... Joe Satriani - Surfing with the Alien. studio version, or Andy Timmons - "Cry For You"...you'll thank me!...Peace!
Dang! I had forgotten all about Satriani! I listened to him in college. Personally I'd rather Preston listened to really old Clapton stuff rather than Satriani. Satriani's playing is more about technical capability than the music. And when he did sing his voice was never very strong. And Preston's only listened to a couple recent live Clapton performances, one of which most of the playing was done by somebody with a synthesizer that sounds like a guitar rather than Clapton himself. I think he'd like classic Clapton.
Clapton is without a doubt, a legend in the blues world, and I believe he has actually reviewed 1 or 2 of his songs. I recommended Satriani as it's not something that he usually would listen too, and thought it might spark an interest in him to venture out into some guitar instrumentals
KamikazeSeatbelt anaesthetise is such an amazing song. Live versions are fantastic. I saw porcupine tree in France at hellfest. Christ they are sublime. Gavin Harrison. Such a great drummer.
Preston man...THANK YOU! I love how you described patience right before a breakthrough. This is so True! Those little nuggets you drop are really what sets you apart from other reaction channels and other RU-vid channels in general. You speak truth and I needed to hear that even though I already knew that. It’s like don’t quit 5 mins before the miracle man. Thanks again! We don’t always think that what we say will help someone but you may have just literally saved my life with that. Please keep the faith and keep telling the truth because it DOES make a huge difference to other ppl. 🔥 🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👍
Tool was one of the first concerts I ever went to, their light show and music is great AF live. Let's get to them BARS, we need EM to come out with more songs!
Preston, I’m a big fan of your station. By far my favorite reactions on RU-vid. Just wanted to say hi from Kansas. Every Tool song you do you always listen to the last second, but today I noticed you cut it off when he had a couple small lines left. You need more... patience. If that joke doesn’t disqualify me from making requests, I’ll add those now. Tool - Opiate (a bit explicit) Opeth - The Drapery Falls Pink Floyd - Any track from Piper at the Gates of Dawn. I can’t pick just one. Animals as Leaders - Tooth and Claw Also, I dig the new intro.
Also, as a Patient, it has multiple meanings to me. all say same, be patient even if you are a patient. As a patient what I want is to get better. Love you channel bro!
Blind Guardian - Mirror mirror | Bard’s song (In the forest) Avantasia - Reach out for the light | The Seven Angels Theocracy - Hide in the fairy tale Kamelot - The Haunting ft Simone Simons Helloween - Straight out of hell Demon Hunter - Not ready to die Demons and Wizards - Fiddler on the Green Powerwolf - Sanctified with dynamite Tengger Cavalry - Cavalry in Thousands
Still being patient for your reaction to Third Eye by Tool Also, you asked for feedback on your Rosetta Stoned vid about rewatching with lyrics provided and it was a resounding “YES!”. So please add Rosetta Stoned with lyrics to the list 🙏🏻
