    Tool is called tool for a reason. The music is a tool that's been given to you. A tool can't make you happy or sad or angry, it's up to you what you want to do with it. A hammer can build a house, break a bone or rust away; it's your choice.

    "it's a fucking masterpiece" I couldn't agree more. I have claimed , loudly and perhaps obnoxiously, that aenima is the single greatest album of all time for 20+ years.
    With Maynard's gift for being specific and vague at the same time with his lyrics I have found that sometimes there's a difference between what the song means and what it means to me.
    Another masterpiece is Puscifer's latest album Existintial Reckoning. They are touring now. The show is unlike anything I have ever seen.
    Thank you so much for the reaction

    I realize a hundred people have already told you to listen to the salival live version. But I’m just going to say it again. The first time I saw them was in 98 (fresh out of high school). But they played the salival version when nobody had heard it before. The studio version was already my favorite but seeing that rendition live when that was the one song I was waiting for, actually changed me and my perception of what music could mean to me in general. Not just with Tool but for all music. Anyways, I think you’re grasping how special these guys are and I’m here for it. Thank you.

  • @DarthRaider520
    @DarthRaider520 Рік тому +27

    Both versions pull tears from different places. The studio version is about the anger and confusion he feels because of his abuse. While the live version is how he struggles with his current relationships because of his abuse. It relates to the song H. However, that song is more directed towards his son and how he doesn't want to repeat the cycle of abuse with some Jungian references. The live version of Pushit is broader and deeply emotional.

    • @Cr0w805

    One of "those" Tool fans chiming in again. As this is one of THE BEST SONGS EVER, this is going to be a winded comment. Amazing reaction as always and I can't tell you how much I appreciate being able to witness your journey on the spiral. This is probably the best song on Ænema and my favorite guitar work from Adam. After years of seeing them live I finally got to hear Pushit in concert this year and it was an overwhelmingly emotional experience. You picked up on a lot of the subtleties. My interpretation is that it's about a toxic relationship that you keep trying to leave, but the other person keeps exploiting the deep emotional attachment to bring you back. Then finally, out of desperation, you do something to cause so much emotional pain to them so that they can't bring themselves to even want you anymore. "Saw the gap again today while you were begging me to stay. Take care not to make me enter. If I do we both ma disappear." The key (I forget what it is) in the first part creates an ominous, uncomfortable musical space. It changes though, & you feel free. But then it changes back again, which I interpret as being pulled back into the toxic relationship and that uncomfortable musical space again. The line "Slipping back into the gap again" reinforces this. Then there's the slow, contemplative interlude where you're really taking stock of the situation followed by the amazing guitar section that puts you in that very sad, desperate emotional state. That leads to the full on instrumental crescendo with "Remember I will always love you as I claw your fucking throat away. It will end no other way." This is when you do something to utterly ruin the relationship. It's like "I love you so much, but I have to do this. It's going to destroy me to do it and destroy you even worse to experience it, but this has to end and this is the only way it's going to happen." Like you said, heart wrenching. Keep the reactions coming & spiral out.

  • @johnswanger8474
    @johnswanger8474 Рік тому +5

    One of the greatest illustrations of how TooL approaches writing material.
    We are all pretty familiar with watching movies. There's actors playing characters that deliver dialogue and camera crews that light the sets providing moods and atmosphere and cinematographers that give the audience a perspective to view the movement and action.
    And then there's the score.
    In the background, there's accompanying music. Whether it's a full arrangement or just a few string instruments providing tension or perhaps sentimentality and warmth, the emotion of all the things you're seeing and hearing are woven through a tapestry of sound effects and music.
    Pushit has several compelling musical breaks; divisions that correspond with the storytelling.
    On another listen, once you're familiar enough with the lyrics that you don't need to read them, close your eyes and feel how the music provides a score to the imagery.
    You can almost feel the rising tension. The apprehension in the beginning, like slowly waking to find the drudgery of putting one foot in front of the other.
    There's a buzziness to the guitar. An uneasy tone but the volume is manageable.
    It changes.
    It becomes violent.
    It recedes.
    You can then hear the violence a second time, worse even..
    Then a moment of haunting clarity.
    A sort of tranquility as a mind is made up.
    The frantic, incessant, confusing storm that follows. Theres a feeling of vertigo as things spin out of control.
    Realization that there's no turning back.
    Confrontation.
    The terror of screaming resolve into the cold darkness of the unknown.
    And having it face off against you.
    It will end no other way.

    This record came out when I was a freshman in high school. My dad used to hit me (not like most kids parents hit them), and scream at me, and tell me what a piece of shit I was going to grow up to be. Though this song is about a different kind of relationship, I remember feeling a totally bizarre mixture of love, fear, and violent rage towards him back then. It stopped when I was eighteen and we finally had an actual fist fight that ended badly for him. This record, and this song in particular at the time, were absolutely huge for me 26 years ago.

    Can’t remember exactly when but I saw them on the original aenima tour in a fairly small club called “Metro” in Perth, Australia. To this day the best gig I’ve ever seen. I didn’t even know them as a band that well at that point but they opened with a medley of “Prison sex” and “Third Eye”. I remember standing on the top balcony of the club looking down on them when Maynard sprung into the chorus for “Third eye”. My whole body broke out in chills. I’ve never had a live experience like that since.

    You’re right. A fn masterpiece. It’s been my fav track for a long time. I think it’s Maynard’s love song about a toxic relationship. They keep getting drawn back to each other but they both know how toxic it is. He tries to leave but gets coerced back for the sex. But he knows it will ruin them both. He does it anyways and they both end up dead. Such a classic love story hey lol
    Anyways loved ur take. I prefer the studio over the Salival. It’s pretty cool but the studio is perfection imo. It’s so satisfying to see someone not only get it.. but appreciate it like u do. Keep goin girl

    I think this song is about how a toxic relationship with a partner causes Maynard to relive childhood abuse. The partners abuse one another to the point that Maynard has had it and wants to leave, but he can't. We see the abuse going back and forth, Maynard admitting he's contributing just as much to it.
    And then at some point the fighting overwhelms him, triggers something from his childhood, and he dissociates into the quiet place in his mind that he used to go into as a child. We sit with him for a moment. He resolves to never allow that awful thing to happen again, and the music builds back up into the instrumental section.
    This part to me represents the two partners escalating from shouting to having an all-out fight when the music crescendoes. The bass and drums represent the punches and kicks and shoves, and the guitar comes in like a bloodcurdling scream. I like your interpretation of the guitar crying along with Maynard too. Perhaps its both. Screaming and crying at the same time.
    And then...we are right back where we started, repeating the frist verse. this has all happened before. the fight is over, they go into the familiar routine of rationalizing and sweeping it under the rug. The song leaves it open-ended whether Maynard finally finds the strength to walk away or is pulled back in once again, stuck in a cycle of abuse and codependency that is all too common. That very last note seems to leave the song unresolved, leaving that doubt with us.

    Maybe the best experience i ever had with music in my life was stumbling across the Salival version of this song back in late 2000 when it was released. I truly went on an out of body experience. To this day when i put that song on my headphones and just close my eyes i still go to that place.

    I saw the gap again today
    While you were begging me to stay
    Take care not to make me enter
    If I do, we both may disappear
    Know that I will choke until I swallow
    Choke this infant here before me
    What is this but my reflection?
    Who am I to judge or strike you down?
    But you're
    Pushing and shoving me
    Pushing and shoving me
    Pushing and shoving me
    Pushing and shoving me
    Pushing and shoving me
    Pushing and shoving me
    Pushing and shoving me
    Pushing and shoving me
    You still love me, you still love me
    But you didn't need to push it on me
    You still love me, you still love me
    But you didn't need to push it on me
    Rest your trigger on my finger
    Bang my head upon the fault line
    You better take care not to make me enter
    'Cause if I do, we both may disappear
    But you're
    Pushing and shoving me
    Pushing and shoving me
    Pushing and shoving me
    Pushing and shoving me
    You still love me, you still love me
    But you didn't need to push it on me
    You're pushing and shoving me
    Pushing and shoving me
    I'm slipping back into the gap again
    I'm alive when you're touching me
    Alive when you're shoving me down, yeah
    But I'd trade it all
    For just a little peace of mind
    Push it on me, push it on me
    Push it on me, push it on me
    You're pushing, and shoving, and scrambling
    To keep my feet flat on the ground
    I am somewhere I don't wanna be, yeah
    Push me somewhere I don't wanna be
    You put me somewhere I don't wanna be
    Seeing someplace I don't wanna see
    Never want to see that place again
    Saw that gap again today
    While you were begging me to stay
    Managed to push myself away
    And you, as well, my dear
    If when I say I might fade like a sigh if I stay
    You minimize my movement anyway
    I must persuade you another way
    Pushing and shoving
    Pushing and shoving
    Pushing me
    There's no love in fear
    Yeah, I'm staring down the hole again
    Hands around my back again
    Survival is my only friend
    Terrified of what may come, yeah
    Remember I'll always love you
    As I claw your fucking throat away
    It will end no other way
    It will end no other way

    As much as You were blown away by listening to this album version, just wait until You hear it's 'live' twin brother version form the Salival EP.
    We probably sound like we're repeating ourselves, but You will not be disappointed - keep Toolin' away Aileen, great content.

      It's interesting isn't it , I have never heard music before that has brought me to tears. No one writes lyrics like Maynard and how he delivers them is perfect and the other 3 geniuses lift you up and send you hurtling into musical heaven like no other band I have ever heard . And I am 67 years old .

    I’ve watched dozens of people react to tool, and you’re by far the most articulate. I’ve been impacted by their songs for a few decades, and pushit has always been a favorite. I’ve contemplated its meaning many times, but as you said, it’s open for interpretation. The more I’ve sat with the song, I believe that it has a nuanced context - the individual’s internal battle with their ego, or the persona they are in love with. Talking to the ego, “don’t let me enter, or we both change.” And “claw your throat away” is to claw away the voice box, voice in your head / ego delusion. (Also consider, same album, 46 & 2/shadow work and third eye’s lyrics about “so good to see you, I miss you so much.” As in the true self - because Psychedelics dissolve the ego.)

    Absolutely love your reactions, your perspective is always appreciated. Not only is there another version of Pushit on the live Salival release that changes the tone of the song in a beautiful way, there is also a video of them playing live usually titled "Push it: The Fan incident." That I'd love to see your reaction. Basically a fan jumps on stage and Maynard didn't want to share his stage. F around and find out. If you didn't know Maynard wrestled in his youth and has kept up his Brazillian Jujitsu training over the years. While I don't condone violence Maynard's takedown was controlled. He continues to belt the song out while performing a submission. It also makes you think about the lyrics of this particular song in a bit of a different way. (Video quality isn't the best and there is some time spent in darkness but definitely worth a watch.)

    This song goes hand in hand with Pet (APC) and Fear Inoculum. It starts with Pet, from the perspective of the abuser. Manipulating and slowly gaslighting. Then here with Pushit, in the midst of an abusive relationship and struggling to get out. And finally being free in Fear Inoculum

    I’m sure if you’ve gotten this 50 times already, but I would recommend reacting to Eulogy. It is about L. Ron Hubbard specifically, but it can generally be directed toward any false prophet who tell you they have answers and take advantage of our need to have structure and purpose in our lives. Very powerful message and song.
