The lyrics to this song are actually inspired by their good friend comedian Bill Hicks’ special “Arizona Bay”. It’s all essentially a huge middle finger to the superficial culture of L.A. 😂the album was in fact dedicated to Hicks who died slightly before the album was released.
They usually close with this and yes it's amazing. I even the on November best concert I've ever seen in person. If you ever get the chance see them live it's an unexplainable experience.
Glad you're back on Tool! (-) Ions is an interlude. Third Eye is crazy. S-tier level Tool. Might be another fave! I didn't see Babymetal in your library yet. Kawaii metal genre. Loosely translated, "Cute metal." Your first taste must be their official, "Gimmie Chocolate." If you've never SEEN them before you'll be blown away on multiple levels. No lie. They put on a SHOW. Keep doing you! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-WIKqgE4BwAY.html
Most Tool Army people (which I would consider myself to be) will tell you that the best song from Tool is the last one they listened to. Myself, AEnema is always #1, and Lateralus is always #1.00000000000000001. The last one I listened to is always #3 on that list. This song is baller. Maybe try Tool audio w/lyrics.
I just CRIED listening to that. I've lived all over the states.. including LA for 20 years. I escaped last year, but I'm actually in LA today on business. Anyway- I think the song is REALLY about superficial BS in general... but man! LA is the centerpiece of the superficial universe! It's also an a-hole magnet. Like... every a-hole in the country is attracted to it... like moths to light. In short: That song is dead-on. (Oh. ...and BTW: All of California is NOT LA. That's the biggest misconception I see in my travels across the country) Thanks for the video! I'm a month late, but fantastic timing for me!
Really wanted to watch the reaction….Cut it off at 2:19…..Intro too long. Best of luck, Bro. I don’t have that much patience. Too many other channels to watch.
