I'm soo appreciative for people uploading live stuff. I'm only just now discovering tool, and definitely tear up hearing this. Especially having listened to it 10+ times in a row. Tool, just wow....
@@MaynardsSpaceship imagine stepping into Adam's shoes as the guitar player and the first time you play with them you have to try and focus on what you're doing with the sound of Danny fucking Carey on the kit behind you.
I think it's cool. On the FI tour, the videos that are out there, in one where they play Pneuma in Budapest, Adam plays the intro just standing there with a red beam of light and he looks so fucking cool, like the fucking boss.
This group just has too many songs for me to pick one. I am fifty years old I blast this group in my car and I don't care what others think of me. TOOL for life!!!
+Daniel Taylor So true man! I love maynard, and tool will always be my first crush. "The Patient" just happens to be one of my favs! Keep flying that tool flag!
Agreed dude, this song is ranked towards the bottom in Tools catalog which is absurd to me. Rosetta Stoned is another massively under rated song in my opinion
This song is written probably thinking about Maynard James Keenan's mother Judith Marie, who suffered a stroke in 1976 that left her partially paralyzed and wheelchair-bound. She thought it was a test from God and thought that she would be rewarded for her faith. It's a play on words because it can also mean his mother being the patient of medical care. This song, more in general, is told from the perspective as someone who has struggled to deal with his mother's or loved one's declining health. No matter how close they are, I'm sure the situation weighed on him HEAVILY and made him want to just give up hope.. "if there were no loving embrace to see me through, I certainly would have walked away by now" meaning he is probably just tired of his mother suffering, and if she weren't so loving, he probably would have walked away. But, he remained patient and cared for his mother until the very end (10,000 days after her initial medical issue... get it?). This is the possible interpretation but there is much more. "If there were no desire to heal The damaged and broken met along This tedious path I've chosen here I certainly would've walked away by now. And I still may ... (sigh) ... I still may." You are close to someone you love who is struggling with health issues and you need to remain if there is still Hope to heal. When He sings "i must keep reminding myself of this" He repeats it a lot of times until his voice becomes a sigh, this is fucking painful, you can feel the despair in his voice, this is a brilliant way to add meaning to the words. I feel this song is very sad. His voice is full of drama and pain. He sings like having tears in his throat, like a suffocated cry, never heard so much pain, He seems like a bird in a cage struggling to Fly away like a vocal coach once said. It has a development, in music, very strong. The beginning is pretty dark, the bass riffing is very obscure and his chant is so melancholic ... then the guitar solos after the bridge are mindblowingly heavy , same for the ending part and then again is darkness. It is a portrait of a very inner painful state of mind.
This was just following 9/11, you can almost feel it in everyone's effort. Never heard this song live, one of the masterpieces. Although, at this point I just think every Tool song is better than every other Tool song.
MOST critics have this song ranked very close to the bottom amongst Tools catalog. I think they haven't heard it through loud enough because this song is a top 10 for me for sure, so fuxking good.
Don't know what critics your talking about, but to me this track embodies everything good about Tool and pretty much represents their entire palette in one song
I thought Lateralus all the way through was phenomenal, but I can see why people would put "Triad" on the bottom of the list. I like the song personally, but I can understand if people felt that song was repetitive if they've never listened to Tool before.
I'm a senior now and heard it for the first time 2 days ago, few songs have that immediate effect in my head that makes me think, this shits badass but this is definitely one of them
I've been getting into odd times and been practicing to a 5/4 metronome on my FACGCE tuned geetar. Always thought this song was 6/4 but was counting along the other day and was like "oh shit no way" and had to look it up on Tab pro to confirm. Yeah this is some great use of the meter. Holy heck
Not just my favorite tool song which is saying alot but my favorite song. This song gets me pumped up and emotional at the same time plus it really hits home
These guys could have stepped out of a time machine in all of the galaxies and just played to audiences in awe. Sheer genius simplicity with huge meanings behind everything that they do. Tool - timeless.....
Wow, I was at this show. Outside venue with a large roof over the stage and seats. I had lawn seats. No roof. It was rainy, but I think it added to the atmosphere of the music. One of 3 times I've seen them. Thanks
my mom passed about 2 months ago from a stroke that left her completely paralyzed and mute. i had listened to tool before but not too in depth. only knew popular songs like ‘46 and 2’ and ‘the pot’. but influence from others has made me dig deeper into their discography. this song perfectly explain how i feel. i am so glad i found this band.
My condolences for your loss. Strokes leave people with the most difficult injuries. I know what it’s like to not be able to have the conversations you both want to have because they can’t communicate their thoughts. I only knew maybe three songs until a few years ago, 2019 fear innoculum got my attention then I dove in deep. Everything about these artists’ musical composure makes me feel more alive, more present, less numb. Almost wish I knew of tool when I was younger but the timing of discovery in my life is just right. Enjoy the spiral of discovery and healing. There’s nothing like really hearing and understanding tool for the first time. We’re glad you’re here 🔧
Went to their Fear Inoculum Tour in Nampa,Idaho, on January 13th 2022, First EVER TOOL CONCERT, best concert ever, heard this song live, it was amazing. And incredibly loud due to be VERY close seats to them as well! But was worth it! Even got the official art concert poster for that show! It’s beautiful! 😮💨 for 23 years old, that’s a night to remember! I feel old now…
How has no one mentioned this concert was held *10 days* after 9/11. The emotions were elevated to a point never seen before. It makes this performance that more exhilarating to listen to.
only maynard james keenan is majestic enough to sound better in live performances. He puts us in a trance because he goes into a trance. I watched him perform "The Noose" live on Halloween night in San Antonio. He fell on his knees and was swaying hypnotic like ...there was so much emotion ....RAW emotion...it was unbeleivable...quite literally.
I’m learning this song on guitar as Adam Jones is my inspiration, but, like most Tool songs, there’s a lot to it. So I’m being patient, and learning it one section at a time.
Probably my fave Tool song. Not sure why, but listening to it one morning going to the doctor back in "06 just really made me luv it ever since. Just so good!
I went to the tool concert last people and co workers were asking what kind of music it is. Very hard to explain lol psychedelic, rock, progressive. Its tool what else can you say lol
Great band, they never disappoint. The new stuff was worth the wait. Wish more bands like this existed instead of this imagine dragons pop rock that's being released now.
My dad used to play "schism" and "the pot" on the radio in his truck. I remember hating those songs for some reason, but now im 17 and i cant get enough TOOL. Theres something about them that im just obsessed with.
Wow when Lateralus was BRAND new, 20 years ago! 2 decades! They were only in their 30s - insane! In fact Justin was only 29. A W E S O M E! most underrated of ALL Tool songs too!!!

That's a big, high note he hits, notice the big breath(s) he takes bending back and forth..that's a lot of stamina, man it kills me to try and sing and move around a lot..although, it looks like he's using the bending to help belt it out. He's a pro now..and then. MJK has a gorgeous voice.
To me this is one of the best composition, some of the best vocals, drums, guitars and bass lines in an orchestra like matter growing until the climax double vocal line
Beautiful. Had to compare it to the one I've heard from Fresno and Glendale this year (2020). MJK improved the vocals slightly. Added some... I don't even know. But it sounds better. Just look it up. Glendale and Fresno 2020.
I'm getting a curtain with Maynard shadow in the background holding his microphone going to make it a complete back piece what you think ??? greetings from the best city in the world Buffalo NY
When I first got lateralus in 2000 or 2001 Whenever it came out. The Patient was the first standout track I heard. Followed by most of the songs that followed this one.
I saw them a few months prior to this at a festival in Germany. They were amazing. Sounded like there were 5 drummers such was the capability of Danny Carey. There were people near me in the crowd who had travelled from the US specially to see them.
Does anyone else tear up when they hear music like this.
Yes, along with a few shivers
I'm soo appreciative for people uploading live stuff. I'm only just now discovering tool, and definitely tear up hearing this. Especially having listened to it 10+ times in a row. Tool, just wow....
Dean1234563 here's you're answer 😭
Gives me goosebumps every time but Wings for Marie makes me tear up for sure
only when maynard sings if there were no rewards to reap....
I love how Adam always just stands there like a soldier, totally badass just let the music speak for itself.
He says he's usually busy counting so he doesn't mess up. :)
Wouldn't it be hard not to get entranced by Danny's drumming?
@@MaynardsSpaceship imagine stepping into Adam's shoes as the guitar player and the first time you play with them you have to try and focus on what you're doing with the sound of Danny fucking Carey on the kit behind you.
And Justin is hunched over his bass, humping it like a tribal madman
Yes. He said in an interview that people were mad he didnt jump around......his response was dont come to our shows
I think it's cool. On the FI tour, the videos that are out there, in one where they play Pneuma in Budapest, Adam plays the intro just standing there with a red beam of light and he looks so fucking cool, like the fucking boss.
This group just has too many songs for me to pick one. I am fifty years old I blast this group in my car and I don't care what others think of me. TOOL for life!!!

+Daniel Taylor So true man! I love maynard, and tool will always be my first crush. "The Patient" just happens to be one of my favs! Keep flying that tool flag!
+Daniel Taylor James is 50 too. Fuck the negative.
Daniel Taylor right on man
Daniel Taylor im fifteen and i agree
The way he belts "I must keep reminding myself of this" just hits me so hard, I can't help but tear up
Those octaves he reaches in this lines shakes me to my core! I’m glad I’m not alone!
Me too
Probably the most underrated tool song.
Agreed dude, this song is ranked towards the bottom in Tools catalog which is absurd to me. Rosetta Stoned is another massively under rated song in my opinion
this song doesn’t get enough love and attention it deserves, definitely one of my favorite TOOL songs
Definitely my favorite song but I’d have to say intension is the most underrated
Probably my favourite Tool song
MJK moves around the stage like one of Adam's claymation figures.
I absolutely adore this song in its entirety, but the openning riff in particular is so haunting. Adam Jones is truely a master at what he does.
I saw someone say recently that Adam doesn't write riffs, he creates ambiance. Perfection.
Maynard still always looks like he mastered the surfboard in a different dimension and just now shows off
Hahahahhaah fucking hilarious
I can't even articulate how deep in the feels this hits me.
Lol everytime i go to the comments on a Tool video, you are there. And i love it lol
its deep , down the rabbit hole of the soul
@@im_in_immense_pain I'm a hermit. And y'all are the only ones that get it. :)
Probably not that deep if you say feels
I understand
realising you dance the same as maynard when when you hear this song
Fuck me, you're absolutely right
LOOOL so true
🤣 true
Thats how I felt about pushit
In every single song, to be fair, jajajaja
Spiral out, people!
This song is written probably thinking about Maynard James Keenan's mother Judith Marie, who suffered a stroke in 1976 that left her partially paralyzed and wheelchair-bound. She thought it was a test from God and thought that she would be rewarded for her faith.
It's a play on words because it can also mean his mother being the patient of medical care.
This song, more in general, is told from the perspective as someone who has struggled to deal with his mother's or loved one's declining health. No matter how close they are, I'm sure the situation weighed on him HEAVILY and made him want to just give up hope.. "if there were no loving embrace to see me through, I certainly would have walked away by now" meaning he is probably just tired of his mother suffering, and if she weren't so loving, he probably would have walked away.
But, he remained patient and cared for his mother until the very end (10,000 days after her initial medical issue... get it?).
This is the possible interpretation but there is much more.
"If there were no desire to heal
The damaged and broken met along
This tedious path I've chosen here
I certainly would've walked away by now.
And I still may ... (sigh) ... I still may."
You are close to someone you love who is struggling with health issues and you need to remain if there is still Hope to heal.
When He sings "i must keep reminding myself of this" He repeats it a lot of times until his voice becomes a sigh, this is fucking painful, you can feel the despair in his voice, this is a brilliant way to add meaning to the words.
I feel this song is very sad. His voice is full of drama and pain. He sings like having tears in his throat, like a suffocated cry, never heard so much pain, He seems like a bird in a cage struggling to Fly away like a vocal coach once said.
It has a development, in music, very strong. The beginning is pretty dark, the bass riffing is very obscure and his chant is so melancholic ... then the guitar solos after the bridge are mindblowingly heavy , same for the ending part and then again is darkness. It is a portrait of a very inner painful state of mind.
Cinzia you are a Goddess!
👏
спасибо, это лучшее объяснение смысла песни, хотя где-то внутри его давно удалось уловить😢
The end of this song gives me shivers.
brandondash Totally agree. It brilliantly captures the feeling of Hope and Perseverance.
He is weeping in the voice. So much emotion. And Danny is Fantastic.
Yes, that's what it is. The desperation. Thank you.
This was just following 9/11, you can almost feel it in everyone's effort. Never heard this song live, one of the masterpieces. Although, at this point I just think every Tool song is better than every other Tool song.
10 days after
Got to hear it live 2/02/22 at the att center san Antonio TX best performance I've ever been to face melting and mind numbing all at the same time
@@iiTzzJakeYT Funny enough, I was at this show too! Great show all around.
Saw it live in Denver last time they were here. Amazing song!
I was there. It was amazing.
Good 'ol Danny just unleashed his inner god..
Badassed performance. All members of the band are firing on all cylinders
MOST critics have this song ranked very close to the bottom amongst Tools catalog. I think they haven't heard it through loud enough because this song is a top 10 for me for sure, so fuxking good.

I was there !! Just after 9-11, senior in high school. Nuts
I'm a senior now and heard it for the first time 2 days ago, few songs have that immediate effect in my head that makes me think, this shits badass but this is definitely one of them
Same here! What a show.
A visionary amongst men, the most influential rock bands in the history of music.
5/4 for the win!
I've been getting into odd times and been practicing to a 5/4 metronome on my FACGCE tuned geetar. Always thought this song was 6/4 but was counting along the other day and was like "oh shit no way" and had to look it up on Tab pro to confirm. Yeah this is some great use of the meter. Holy heck
It's weird seeing Maynard wearing a tshirt during a show in 2001.
Seriously... overdressed for him at the time
Wow *_*... amazing. It's unbelievable what this four piece rock band can do
I was at this show! It was so damn good. When they played Third Eye and Maynard came out with the constellations on his body we all went nuts.
I was on the lawn! 👍
@@michaelmoceri6469 Me too, bought a poncho so I wouldn't get too wet.
Not just my favorite tool song which is saying alot but my favorite song. This song gets me pumped up and emotional at the same time plus it really hits home
When's the next Tool album coming out?
Me: Gonna waiiit it ouuuuttt
Now...we got Fear Inoculum (Lateralus 2.0)
These guys could have stepped out of a time machine in all of the galaxies and just played to audiences in awe. Sheer genius simplicity with huge meanings behind everything that they do. Tool - timeless.....
Wow, I was at this show. Outside venue with a large roof over the stage and seats. I had lawn seats. No roof. It was rainy, but I think it added to the atmosphere of the music. One of 3 times I've seen them. Thanks

i love how maynard is able to present that he is so effortlessly providing some of the best vocals i’ve heard ever.
The end of this song is pure euphoria.
The best rythm section in the biz
I cry every time. Maynard has that power. He makes me emotional.
My favorite song from tool of all time .

No one mentions Chancellor? I am surprised, Badass bass Player, so fucking talented
You appreciate him so much more seeing them live! Danny too. They are so much clearer live
Fantastic performance
6:04-6:22 mind blowing bass harmony

Same here ! 2002 babies
My dad used to play "schism" and "the pot" on the radio in his truck. I remember hating those songs for some reason, but now im 17 and i cant get enough TOOL. Theres something about them that im just obsessed with.
Still to this day i get chills listening to this song, whether its live or the studio version!!!
My friends keep trying to convince me about the fear inoculum album. I can't get into it like this. This sounds effortless and amazing!
This makes me wanna cry it’s so beautiful
If I go to a show (hopefully) and they play this song Im technically dead
I can hit repeat over and over 👊👍 tool rocks
I can and I do.
“But I’m still right here… giving blood keeping faith and I’m still right here”
I feel identified with the crowd at the end and I didn't even went to the concert. Tool is just with King Crimson the greatest bands I ever heard.
Danny is so incredible!
One of the most underrated song from tool
I must keep reminding myself of this
Adam jones is the most underrated guitarist metal
timeless...
His groans of tedium escaping in the beginning of this amazing voyage. Thank you all for another journey.
Wow when Lateralus was BRAND new, 20 years ago!
2 decades! They were only in their 30s - insane!
In fact Justin was only 29.
A W E S O M E!
most underrated of ALL Tool songs too!!!
“The damaged and broken met along” Thank you for “shortening the road”. I think I can make it before the train leaves. 🙏🙌😊
SUCH A DRUMMER!!!!!!!
But I’m still.. right here. Giving blood, keeping faith.
A groan of tedium escapes me
Startling the fearful
Is this a test?
It has to be
Otherwise I can't go on
Draining patience
Drain vitality
This paranoid, paralyzed vampire act's a little old
But I'm still right here
Giving blood, keeping faith
And I'm still right here
But I'm still right here
Giving blood, keeping faith
And I'm still right here
Wait it out
Gonna wait it out
Be patient

This song is easily the peak of this band
they are increasingly incredible
Best Tool song to my mind...not that such a thing exists
Every song is a master piece there the best at there craft .every instrument sounds perfect an tuned .I have never heard drums so perfect like Carey's
I must keep reminding myself of this 😢🖤
I get chills every single time I hear this song. So much emotion. That crescendo @06:25 is simply beautiful, bittersweet and tragic all at once.
Back when it was the Tweeter Center. To believe I was just 15 miles away and missed this...
It’s like looking back in time. The only time I got to see them was on that tour in August of 2001 in Pensacola.
Unbelievable and I'm 71! The best since hendrix
Minute 5.57 his voice is glorious
That's a big, high note he hits, notice the big breath(s) he takes bending back and forth..that's a lot of stamina, man it kills me to try and sing and move around a lot..although, it looks like he's using the bending to help belt it out.
He's a pro now..and then.
MJK has a gorgeous voice.
Greatest. Band. On. The. Planet.
True dedication.
This is the most beautiful live i’ve ever seen-heard ❤️
This song is so good 💪 and still so underated.
And I still may...
One of the lucky people who saw it played in concert in 2020.....
To me this is one of the best composition, some of the best vocals, drums, guitars and bass lines in an orchestra like matter growing until the climax double vocal line
Great quality 👌
And then he has A Perfect Circle. Maynard at 40 was a beast.
interesting, 10 days after 9/11.
Thats what makes this album more powerful.
Slayer's God Hates All was released on Sept. 11 2001. Wrap your mind around that.
TCB * so was Nicklebacks album that blew them up to the mainstream 😑
@@patricklauer4452 #bummer
TCB * God Hates Us All is probably my favorite Slayer album. The sheer brutality.
And its my 18th birthday
4:44 - 4:52 MONSTROUS. Adam "cold-blooded" Jones
Beautiful. Had to compare it to the one I've heard from Fresno and Glendale this year (2020). MJK improved the vocals slightly. Added some... I don't even know. But it sounds better. Just look it up. Glendale and Fresno 2020.
Obligatory I was there comment. Nothing will ever compare to a live tool show.
Damn this is a hot track.
Just Perfect
I'm getting a curtain with Maynard shadow in the background holding his microphone going to make it a complete back piece what you think ??? greetings from the best city in the world Buffalo NY
When I first got lateralus in 2000 or 2001 Whenever it came out. The Patient was the first standout track I heard. Followed by most of the songs that followed this one.

I love his silhouette
