      I’m so sorry, music has power to change emotion or to drag up memories, feelings and emotions you thought were long buried. That’s why I believe it really does have magical qualities. And also once music is out in the world it doesn’t belong to the song writer anymore, everyone owns it as it becomes very personal to them. I hope you’re coping ok in these difficult times and you can find some other music that brings happier memories and thoughts. 👍🏼

This is just on a different level. This is that song that makes me cry but the kind of cry where you feel better afterwards. It helped me with my loss. These two songs as well as Parabol and Parabola are some of the most healing music I’ve ever come across.

    This is my FAVORITE Tool song(s)… and that’s saying something cuz they simply do not have a bad song.
    But Wings is different, as you said. It allows you to feel every aspect, every layer, of loss. The grief, the despair, the rage at it all. Every emotion individually and all at once. Every time I hear it, I thank the universe that Maynard decided to write it, record it and share it with us. Like you said, we are privileged to listen to it. That’s exactly how I feel. Truly, truly one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written. Of any genre. A haunting and personal requiem that is absolutely unmatched.

      Dan Inbari I caught on about two years after Aenima and was in college when Lateralus dropped. Still vividly remember buying the CD and popping into the car hearing the opening to Grudge. That said, when 10,000 days album dropped I was working and didn’t fully dig in until about 6+months later. Boy was that a mistaaaaaake!! So many classics and this album, for me, has the best lyric I’ve ever heard/read.
      “Repugnant is the creature who would squander the ability to lift an eye to heaven, conscious of our fleeting time here.”

    Jim, it's the perfect reaction. The beauty of the song is it's true.. it's music in it's truest form. It wasn't made to appeal to a mass audience or to be catchy.. it's just heartfelt and honest and your reaction was equally true to those things. I remember when the album came out.. I was 17 years old and listening to it in the living room of my parent's house in the middle of the night and I remember the sweeping guitars panning from left to right and just going on a very intimate and personal journey for this song. I always come back to that moment when I listen to it.
    If I may, please check out Disposition/Reflection/Triad. It's in my opinion their magnum opus and when Tool was at their creative zenith.
    Hope all is well, cheers!

    12:14 reaction is spot on. Is it just me or did you turn red after that

    This song is hard to listen to...very powerful. And it makes even stronger when you know that Maynard is probably an atheist and kinda hates/despises religion because of what he's experienced as a child when he's mom became paralyzed and her church acted like she was being punished by something that she'd done, instead of helping them. So for Maynard to put his beliefs aside and write a song about her faith it's quite noble.

    • @stefanforrer2573

      i maybe wouldn't call it noble... but certainly is an indication of how much love he had/has for his mother

      @@stefanforrer2573 I think that's true, and I also think it's true that Maynard has matured in his view of the religion he criticized for so many years (understandably so, if you put yourself in his shoes). Maybe realizing there's something to it after all, since he admits his "arrogance" with the "burden of proof tossed upon the believers", all the while his mom was his "witness" "eyes" and "evidence" the last word being the key here. Don't get me wrong I wouldn't go as far as to say that he believes in God, but I'd say he has gained respect for the faith, since it's clearly what carried his mom through the difficult times. It's such a great song, and I'm glad he wrote it even though it must have been painful to do so.

    George Harrison & Eric Clapton played on the record version of "My guitar gently weeps", and somehow Adam Jones's playing brought weeping to mind, but not "gently". I get teary every time I thoughtfully listen this.

    this is the only track by Tool i can't listen often. it can ruin a good day for sure and it can help you on a bad one, either. so most times i listen to the 10000 days album, i skip this 2-parted ode to Maynards mother, surely not in disrespect of the work the band has put into it. Jim, your reaction just underlines the insecurity how to deal with death in general, the unawareness about what happens with us. I don't have an answer, too.

      We sometimes skip these the same way Tool doesn't perform these live anymore. The way the two songs work would've gotten these guys burned as witches, back in the Salem days.

    It's a tear-jerker, that's for sure. Every single time I listen to it within about 30 seconds, my emotions get the better of me. And this is coming from a person who rarely gets that emotional. I think it's due to the fact that it's so relatable. Whether you've lost your mother or knowing one day that you will, it's a bond like no other everyone dreads losing...
