Part of the anger Keenan felt was because the members of his mother's church were telling her the stroke must have been her fault, that she must have done something awful for this to happen.
How cathartic do you think this song was/is for Maynard? What those members of his mother’s church didn’t understand was he [God] wasn’t punishing his mother. He was testing them [parishioners of her church]. And they failed miserably. If you believe in Him. That’s my theory. Lol.
@@frankiek2269 true, but the song is about Christianity. Not other religions.... Also you really just had a "if somebody else jumps off a cliff it's okay if I do it too." Moment
I LOVE A Perfect Circle! They're whole album Thirteenth Step is amazing. Maynard also has another band called Puscifer which is weird, but also very good
So to understand the song, you'd have to do some digging. This is about Maynard's mother Judith Marie Keenan, who had a stroke and was reliant on a wheelchair for the rest of her life, yet still believed in Christianity.
Do not piss off a song writer, They will rage against the stimuli!. Religion, Politics, Social non-conforms, and differing beliefs. Love the reaction. Stay Safe.🤟
Billy Howerdel the guitar player wrote the songs for APC and Maynard wrote the lyrics. Many of the songs from this album Mer De Noms Billy started writing in the late 80s
this song hits me right because i have need him at a desperate point when there was no hope, and preyed and begged and prayed and prayed to just take his pain away thats all i ask and poured everything within out and he ignored me, or wasnt there, or didnt exist or basically said go F yourself, same difference. so i have no faith and its ok. let others believe all they want.
beeing aa child or even just a family member ofsomeone who lived and died such ways, definitly sux bad,.. one feels helpless and weak in those times.. this is an amazing song,.. probably the only APC song i really love!
fincher killed it. As a catholic, I can understand the rage, melodically, its powerful, but to make a song about it, i don't know...saying f... your god your Christ as a rocker is not very rebel
Thank God for Paz, her bass, heels, and hair
I didn't know god made shoes. I bet they are pricey

@@frankiek2269testing others by debilitating another is the most Christian thing I've ever heard. Completely psychopathic...
@@dabreal82 Lol. Actually, all the major religions do it. Can’t just blame Christianity. They’re all complicit in that doctrine.

I think it was Christian Science, not just Christianity. In Christian Science any kind of medical treatment is strongly discouraged.
@@thejesseayyI had never heard the christian science part before.
Such a great song in everyway. MJK definitely said what he felt (as usual).

my grandma was strict catholic and died a horrible death of stomach cancer
Yeah they are Hell bound. He wrote those lyrics about watching his mother Judith slowly die so he's a little pissed.
Outsider , weak and powerless are my faves from perfect circle
Lurve!!!

The lyrics are so deep and depressing! "F%ck your God" is a phrase I use almost daily.
One day boy, one day.
history will reveal you will regret that!
@@willfromyadkinville The delusion is real with these people!!
@@carlr8061 How about two days!!
@@carlr8061 really got to love those empty Christian threats, save it
What a song! took me back to my childhood.. :\
drove a spiteful spear into his side harking back to the roman soldier stabbing jesus on the cross with a spear to his side
the bass player is so hot!
👍👍👍👍👍

Da approfondire
Maynard is the best singers now. Tool and this band are playing with Primus. Can't wait
Maynard has Pusiffer also other than Perfect Circle. Also
I spelled that wrong.. lol
Incredible song...try Lateralus 😉
Я не мотаю головой под эту песню,потому что знаю о чём и о ком она.
I don't know the lineup for the video
The Christian Satan doesn't have the power to create aneurysms, only Yāhwēh has that power
She was right.
talk to jesus christ as if he knows the reason why
