- 46 & 2 by Tool Lyrics - Psychological and Theoretical Breakdown & Reaction, and Explanation of Carl Jung's concept of the integration of the "Shadow Self". Tool consists of vocalist Maynard James Keenan, guitarist Adam Jones, drummer Danny Carey. and bassist Justin Chancellor (since 1995, replacing their original bassist Paul D'Amour). Forty Six & Two was the fourth single from their second major record release Ænima in 1996. In this video, Nena Lavonne offers and theoretical and psychological analysis of the lyrics of the song that refer both directly and indirectly to Carl Jung's Shadow Theory. The Shadow is a Jungian archetype that exists as part of the unconscious mind and is composed of repressed ideas, weaknesses, desires, instincts, and shortcomings. The shadow forms out of our attempts to adapt to cultural norms and expectations.

Hey! Hope you guys find this interesting and I'd love to hear your favorite Tool song ;)
xo Nena
Cool analysis Nena!
Picking a favorite is hard, they have so many great songs, but I will have to say this song or The Pot are the ones that I tend to listen to the most.
@@timbaker7238 great choice! Glad you enjoyed the analysis! 🤘🏻
Super happy you went over a Tool song. One of my favourite bands for sure. My favourite is either Pneuma or Vicarious🤘
eye cant pick jus 1!
Nena, brilliant video. I always love watching reactions/analysis videos about Tool's music. You learn something new every time especially when breaking down the lyrics. I'm very much looking forward to you analyzing their other songs.... especially "Lateralus".....the song many call their masterpiece.
As far as my favorite Tool song.....I don't know. It's difficult to do because I can probably think of one then another comes to mind then another then another, etc. I guess my favorite is the one the one I want to listen to next 🤘⚡
That description of 46 and to was the most straight-to-the-point perfect description I have her thank you for acknowledging your respect an understanding how profound that song actually is it's absolutely amazing absolutely and deserves so much respect
So glad you enjoyed it, Jason! The song is a masterpiece ♥️🤘🏻
Jason, all you gotta do is lookup - ' Gaddis The Ayahuasca Wave '....and read that whole page over and over if you want to understand this band and tune on a much deeper level. It's not a secret that Tool's artist, Alex Grey, has taken Aya-huasca more times than you can shake a stick at. .
Forty Six & 2 has been one of my favorite TOOL songs for many years. My feeble analytical mind has been able to figure out a portion of the meanings to it, but then you came along with this excellent video, and made me so much more aware of the meaning of the song, and why and how I have reacted to it. Please analyze "The Pot" it is my all time favorite TOOL song.
Very glad you enjoyed the video! And yes, it’s already on the list! 😉🤘🏻

Thank you for this analysis and breakdown! It gave me chills again just seeing the lyrics while you walked through them. This is such a powerful song and the first one that made me a true Tool fan! My life partner just passed in November, and it was a process I opened and accepted... it was a major catapult in my conscious journey, and my latest tattoo incorporated "Forty Six & 2" in it for this very reason.
Hey Alissa! So glad you enjoyed! I'm so sorry for the loss of your life partner, but happy for you that it led to a new journey in consciousness. I would love to hear more about your tattoo!
@@psychologyofrock He was an amazing illustrator and penned original comic books. In one of his frames, he depicted a story similar to our relationship where he sacrificed himself for me and my sons. I was cradling his limp face in my hands. I took that frame, extended the drawing, inked the art, and took it to my tattoo artist who also added the words "Forty Six & 2" plus the artist flair and filigree. It's a symbol of how that catastrophe propelled me into my biggest jump of consciousness yet.

Thanks for doing this
So glad you enjoyed, Matt! 🌀😊🤘🏻
This explanation is a prime example of "synchronicity." I listened to this song a few days ago, for the first time in a while & for the first time I wondered about the meaning behind it. Since then I've thought about it briefly when I noticed something reminding me of it but it quickly slipped my mind each time. After several remimders, today I decided to look into it a bit more & came to YT in search of a video with lyrics, when I stumbled across your's. Your's not only has the lyrics but has them broken down which was my ultimate goal.
Very nice interpretation btw!
Hi Stephanie! So glad you enjoyed, and it definitely sounds like a prime example of synchronicity 😊 it’s amazing how much music and teach us about ourselves and help us grow as a person ♥️ always a pleasure to meet a fellow Tool fan!

Jungian psychology in Tool and Rock… I just found my new favorite UA-cam channel. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and insights about this amazingly interesting topic. ❤
You are very welcome! Glad to find others who share these interests! 😊🖤🤘🏻
Beautifully said subbed thanks for your content
Thanks, Chris! 😊🤘🏻
I just have to say I can't stop listening to this it is just by far the best explanation of the song that I've heard and I love the fact that you give tool so much credit because I don't think people really realize how good they actually are without really loving music. I feel there's some people that just really love music and understand how much it touches you emotionally and if you're like that and give tool a chance they are on a whole new level and completely embody the potential beauty of what music can be. I love the way you described the lyrics as beautiful because they are and I don't think people realize that because of the style of music they use
Thank you so much, Jason! I agree they are truly amazing!
I enjoyed it a lot! The shadow archetype analysis looks fascinating, and it's interesting how Forty-Six & Two lyrics are displayed, also matching with the musical atmosphere. Tool is a terrific band.
Glad you enjoyed it! They really are an incredible band, both musically and lyrically. What's your favorite Tool song?
@@psychologyofrock Hard one 😅, but I go with The Pot.
@@matheusvmoraes 😊🤘🏻
I swear you cover all my favourite bands somehow. Rush, The Warning and Tool are my all time favourites. Thank you Nena!
Glad to hear it! You have good taste music! 😉😊🤘🏻
powerful, intelligent and deep - thank you
You are very welcome! Glad you enjoyed 😊🤘🏻🌀
Bravo! Well done analysis. SUBSCRIBED!
Glad you enjoyed! Welcome to the channel 😊🤘🏻
Great video❤
So glad you enjoyed it! Welcome to the channel ♥️🤘🏻
This is/was much deeper than I first realized, DAMN.
Maynard does not play around! 😊🤘🏻
Thank you for that great analysis and giving us food for thought 🖤
Accepting one's own dark side really isn't easy. I guess I'm somewhere at the beginning of this process, so this video is a great motivation for me to continue on that path, thank you 🖤
Hey Denis! My pleasure, I’m a huge fan of the band, and this song has always hit home for me. So glad the lyrics resonate with you, and I agree that learning about our shadow can be the key to enter freedom in our life 🖤🤘🏻
@@psychologyofrock Somehow Tool was completely off my radar, so thank you for making me discover a new band that I enjoy 🖤 I discovered the song thanks to your video, looked it up and must say it really resonates with me.
I agree with you. I noticed that the part of my shadow I already discovered and accepted gives me so much freedom and strenght 🤘
@@DenisDolisy that’s fantastic, Denis!!! 🤘🏻

TOOL is my favorite band- PERIOD. 😂 Favorite album is Lateralus by far, but they’re all great. When I first heard 46and2, I was going through major changes in my life. That’s what the song meant to me- change and evolution. I drew a design of an eye with 46 an 2 etched into the iris and had it tattooed on my back. It signified stepping into my shadow/ my new self. I had to “shed” many people and bad habits when I made this step. I was the most artistic and spiritual during this time in my life. ❤️ I love Maynard, btw. 😁
♥️♥️♥️
One more thing I think you're very smart and I'm glad I subscribe to your channel
Awww, thank you so much! Happy you are here! ♥️🤘🏻
When it come to Tool I have to admit that I am far more fascinated with Danny Carey's almost nonhuman Poly Rhythmic drumming. That is not something mere mortals can pull off.
Agreed! This band is filled with rare talent. Glad they are still making music, even though we have to wait an eternity between albums 😉 Hope you are doing great!
I put a link to your video in the description of a cover video I just uploaded for the song.
Thanks, Terence! :)
Last comment I'm sorry I'm putting so much, as I am just so happy that someone like you gave that ban so much respect
I'm so glad you enjoyed, Jason :)
I dig how the music in this song seems to both drive the lyrics and pull the listener through the story. Excellent analysis! I'd love to hear your thoughts on Lateralus or Wings for Marie....
Hey Eric! Very glad you enjoyed! More TOOL to come for sure! ;)

I think the muscle memory lyric also refers to how trauma is stored in the body as procedural memory. Through using techniques such as EMDR a person can bring traumatic events to consciousness in a relaxed state and integrate them into their episodic memory. Extinguishing automatic emotional/ psycho/ physical cues.
Fantastic point- yes, absolutely!

I would say that this is my favorite Tool song, even though it's definitely not the most complex instrumentally, but it's one of my favorite rock songs overall. I was introduced to Tool by my sister when I was a kid and she introduced me to some not so good music, but also great music like Chevelle and Tool. Danny Carey's drumming along with the profound lyrics and Maynard's unique vocals are my favorite parts of Tool's music. Whenever you hear a Tool song, there's no mistaking that it's Tool and I like that about them.
Hey Kirk! Sorry I didn't see this comment sooner, but I completely agree with you! :)
@@psychologyofrock No problem. The not so good music I was referring to was 90s boy bands by the way: Backstreet Boys, NSYNC, Hanson, stuff like that lol. It was part of a phase that she went through in middle school. My sister and brother in law have been to see Tool live twice but I wasn't able to go either time, maybe someday.
Fingers crossed 🤞 😊

In an interview with James Maynard Keenan he said this,
The premise is humans would deviate from the current state of human DNA which contains 44 autosomes and two sex chromosomes. The next step of evolution would likely result in human DNA being reorganized into 46 autosomes and two sex chromosomes. So 46 and 2 and nothing to do with depression.

LESSS GOOO
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Is there an article, research of some sort that one can read in order to understand more about the chromosomal composition of forty-six and 2 and extended plane of consciousness?
🤘
🖤🤘🏻
Thank You for the Breakdown. Why was Carl Jungs' work truncated by modern phycology ?
I think some psychologists frowned on this focus on spiritual concepts. Also the rise of behaviorism played a part. Great question that deserves its own video :)
thank you for the answer. @@psychologyofrock

@@cranboogie great choice!
Great breakdown of this song, Nena. I know you are a Rush fan, so have you thought about reviewing their Counterparts album. Specifically the songs "Double Agent" and "Animate". Lots of Carl Jung material in there.
Great suggestions! You are absolutely right. A lot to work with there 😊🤘🏻
When I first heard TOOL songs I was overwhelmed by the performance of the guys.....and the first song I heard was 46&2, later Sober or Right or two.......for me TOOL is one of the best bands of the 90s😊
No question! They are still in my top 3 of all time. :)
Just got to say I used to love tool just because I'm a drummer and Danny Carey is but when I found out what the lyrics are about they are just beyond a bad to me they are as good as Mozart or Johann Sebastian Bach
And I like their new album too but I think that Maynard kind of came to terms with himself and his lyrics aren't as deep anymore because he's not in such a personal voyage to find out who he really is anymore he's healthy now which would make it harder to write really good songs but don't get me wrong it still good
I felt shadow when i smoked weed.
I think everybody has it wrong. Not every tool song is about enlightening. Some are very dark. I this one in particular is very misunderstood. to me it has nothing to do with what the video says. It's a serial killer with split personality or with a repressed dark side, that is about to murder again. Why? because of the term 23&1. Which is when you are in prison confinement, you have 23 hours inside your cell and 1 hour to get sun. The song is about a guy who was a killer either himself or one of his personalities called the shadow (his darkness) that he had previously represses to live a normal life. At the beginning the shadow is calling him to join him. Throughout the son song we se his shadow reminding him he has done it before and thus his muscle memory to kill and the shadow is anxious to do it again. The character is thinking about stepping in his double personality or shadow self and knows that if he follows that path he will get surely prison confinement but it will be for him and for his shadow 23&1 times 2 is 46&2. Sentence for him and for shadow self but added together. What do you think?

And consistent in my opinion 46 and 2 isn't even their best song although it's hard to compare because they're all really good in different ways but they have so many masterpieces on the same level personally my favorite is wings Marie part 2 I still cry everytime I listen to that song
