Overwhelmed as one would be, placed in my position. Such a heavy burden now to be the one. Born to bear and read to all The details of our ending. To write it down for all the world to see. But I forgot my pen, Shit the bed again, Typical. Awesome!
Man, I can't wait for the full version of this thing. I'm also glad to see some people finally seeing Rosetta Stoned for what it is. I love the song, but not many people take the time to listen to the whole thing. Suggestion: Read the lyrics too. They're crazy. :)
heheh...i appreciate your enthusiasm my friend. Just got back from an amazing trip recording in LA. I'm going to write a blog on it tonight on myspace. more videos are coming soon Adam
Your vocals have so much character! You can really tell you're into the songs you do. I'm a vocalist myself and i know what it takes to make it sound like you mean it. Excellently done friend.
Holy shit. Your covers are the most epic things ive seen played on piano in a while. Your gracefulness on the keyboard never seems to stop amazing me. =D
This remains one of my favorite songs of all time, and I'm not talking about Rosetta Stoned, which is a great song, I'm talking about this video. Even though it was never "completed" it remains an amazing track in its own right and always finds its way to my ears.
Jesus christ you're such a bad ass. I want you to know, That i just recently picked up a keyboard (casio) and bought "Piano for Dummies", to try to teach myself a second instrument. And it was all because of you. I was already interested in Piano, but you pretty much inspired me. Keep doing what you do.
Not only is this one of my favourite tool tracks, but you played my favourite part in the song. Very impressive, im really looking forward to the whole thing. Good luck on the beginning, hope you can sing fast :)
I've been waiting for this for ages now. Its most definitely my favourite Tool song, second being Aenema. I really hope you do something close the full version, but it can be shortened!
Awesome singing back there I was convinced it was Mr. MJK live for a more than a second piano was also very well how come we've never checked these "reaction" videos back then
lmao...its made burst into laughter... the first 3/4 sounds so good and serious. then Maynards smart ass lyrics" but i forgot my pen, shit the bed again...typical" LMFAO.
Yeah, I'm glad you noticed. The the lighting in lateralus vid is definitely the most dramatic and it suites the cover well. Most of the others are me just messing around with typical ambient room lighting and a stationary cam. You can definitely look forward to the return of the cameraman and cooler lighting in the future. Thanks for the comment. Adam
Think this is everyone's favorite part of the song. I love how the 'Overwhelmed as one would be" comes out on the album.
wow from a tool fan....very awesome...ironic you picked my favorite part of this song to cover as well...the time sig during this is such awesomeness
It's only one of the most amazingly well composed parts of a song, of an amazingly composed song, of an amazing band ever.
Overwhelmed as one would be, placed in my position.
Such a heavy burden now to be the one.
Born to bear and read to all
The details of our ending.
To write it down for all the world to see.
But I forgot my pen,
Shit the bed again,
Typical.
Awesome!
+MushiePuppet17 easily one of the best lyrics ever written.
Hearing the lyric "shit the bed" sung classically is hilarious... Great job man, keep up the good work!
I'd love to hear a full length cover of this
OH MY GOD, I had shit my bed when you started singing. excusez mon anglais
...typical
this is simply my favorite part of rosetta stoned its brilliant!!!
Adam, when you start singing I get chills. Amazing song, and adaptation.
My favourite part too!!! And You did a great job!
this is also my favorite part of Rosetta Stoned...you done it justice sir
Already listen to like 50 times this week
Man, I can't wait for the full version of this thing. I'm also glad to see some people finally seeing Rosetta Stoned for what it is. I love the song, but not many people take the time to listen to the whole thing.
Suggestion: Read the lyrics too. They're crazy. :)
my favorite part too. you made it even more beautiful
All these years later and I'm still watching this video. Great work!
heheh...i appreciate your enthusiasm my friend. Just got back from an amazing trip recording in LA. I'm going to write a blog on it tonight on myspace. more videos are coming soon
Adam
This video just popped in my head after a few years since I last saw it. Took some digging to find it again but happy I did
Your vocals have so much character! You can really tell you're into the songs you do. I'm a vocalist myself and i know what it takes to make it sound like you mean it. Excellently done friend.
AWESOME! This is my favorite part of the song as well! Nicely done!
I think i just came. Omg...My fav part! Well done sir, well done!
After this I immediately got up and practiced playing piano, you are very inspiring.
Thank you.
The way you play piano looks like you are gently caressing them and are automatically connected to them.. Like an extreme manipulation .. AMAZING
Holy shit. Your covers are the most epic things ive seen played on piano in a while. Your gracefulness on the keyboard never seems to stop amazing me. =D
Funnily enough the part where you sing "shit the bed again" gave me a shiver. Now that takes talent amigo! seriously cool cover!
Great level of playing Dude ! Awesome coordination and powerful voice !
Nice part of this song, my favorite too
Heard this version 4 years ago and still after all these years.. I want more!
When you start singing is like WHOA!!! I fucking love your version, even more than the original :O
Oh my god dude I cant even believe how amazing that was. I know you didnt mean to, but you just blew my mind.
This remains one of my favorite songs of all time, and I'm not talking about Rosetta Stoned, which is a great song, I'm talking about this video. Even though it was never "completed" it remains an amazing track in its own right and always finds its way to my ears.
talented, great voice and playing. rarely do i hear covers where people actually come close to sounding like maynard
You've brought out the roots in this part
So, did you find my keys?
Blame Hoffman, dude.
All 52
As soon as I read the video description I knew it was gonna be this part of the song. So bad ass
This is my favorite part of the song too. Awesome job.
Fantastic work! One of my fave Tool tracks.
I'm still listening to this after 16 years
Nice! 👍
might i say, wonderful, i am a big tool fan, and this does it justice, awesome voice, keep up the awesome work
you never cease to amaze me adam, its no wonder billy looked you up.
Jesus christ you're such a bad ass. I want you to know, That i just recently picked up a keyboard (casio) and bought "Piano for Dummies", to try to teach myself a second instrument. And it was all because of you. I was already interested in Piano, but you pretty much inspired me. Keep doing what you do.
so AWESOME! really amazing and great vocals!
This is great. Id love to see a full cover.

5* star's
Seriously mr... your voice is amazing, and your piano interpretations are amazing as well... well done!!!
damnit. that's just too good especially the part where you sing. i suddenly have this urge to listen to rosetta stoned a few times.
and yet again...I say.....wow. beautiful.
Holy... holy...
I can't. This is amazing.
I dare you to do the whole thing. Singing first vocal parts+simultaneously playing the piano=skillful as fuck.
WOW you are VERY talented with the Piano and your voice!! Im very impressed! ^.^ Keep it up!
That beginning part, when played on the piano, actually reminds me of Debussy's Pagodes. Sweet!
Beautiful....
hey this is my favorite part too! :D
I've been waiting for this for ages now. Its most definitely my favourite Tool song, second being Aenema. I really hope you do something close the full version, but it can be shortened!

Amazing, didnt expect good singing. great job.

Oh, I also wanted to add that the part of Rosetta you just performed (the bridge/hook) is by far the best part of the song.
Classic!!!
