    Lyrics:
    Lost as I may be
    Oh, in the fog of my own noise and triviality
    Grand Holy Mother, grant me clarity
    I am standing on the edge of forever
    Forever
    One among infinity
    Witnessing the majesty
    Calm in this humility
    Witnessing the majesty
    Hope as far as one can see
    Witnessing the majesty
    Witnessing the majesty
    Witnessing the majesty
    Standing on the edge of forever
    Blessed be
    This reawakening
    Grand Holy Mother, end my deathly slumber, to
    Stand fearless on the edge of forever
    Forever
    One among infinity
    Witnessing the majesty
    Calm in this humility
    Witnessing the majesty
    Hope as far as one can see
    Witnessing the majesty
    Witnessing the majesty
    Witnessing the majesty
    Witnessing the majesty
    Witnessing the majesty
    Witnessing the majesty
    Standing on the edge of forever
    Hope
    Hope as far
    As one can see
    As one can see
    Hope
    Hope as far as
    As one can see
    As one can see
    Hope
    Hope as far as
    As one can see
    As one can see

    In 1995, Maynard made a guest appearance on "Mr Show with Bob and David." One thing led to another, and now I am listening to a classical Indian singer fronting a brass-rock cover band on constant repeat.

    I'm genuinely amazed this song was written by Maynard James Keenan. He seems like the kind of person who has been doing a hell of a lot of soul searching and self reflection over the decades of being a musician. He can still make a song filled with the most eloquently distilled rage you can imagine, but he can also make this. More angry city folk should try living in the desert for a bit.

    In the last few years Puscifer has come roaring up from out of nowhere to become one of my favorite things. I want to see more covers and reactions and people talking about this band. And I need the more close minded "Every second Tool is not making a new record is a waste of time and nothing else matters" fans to bugger off, and accept that what Maynard, Carina, and Mat are creating is every bit as valid, and maybe, in my opinion, connects on an even deeper level. For me. I still love Tool. It's just that I've rarely been quite as riveted, even by most of the other things I enjoy, as I was when I found Puscifer.

    • @SmearyRenold
      @SmearyRenold 2 роки тому +8

      The way I’ve always seen it is that Tool speaks to my mind while Puscifer speaks to my heart. They both give me something to feel and for that I love them both. Music of this quality should not be ignored especially because of something so malleable as your opinion.

      If your referring to the vocals, I believe they are actually South Asian; more specifically Indian. That said, I could be wrong in my assessment as I'm far from an expert, and it's also a possibility that these vocal styles are similar enough or cross influenced enough that the distinction is purely academic. I agree with you though, the unique style of those vocal runs really fits the song in a way I hadn't expected.

    One of my favorite albums by Puscifer and one of my favorite songs on it. This cover gave me goosebumps!! So much talent, great job to everyone involved.

    Damn, that was spot on. I wasn't sure how it would go but the mix was great, and the harmonies were spot on... Automatic playlist song 👍. Fingers crossed for more puscifer, such a great chance for some guest vocals and harmonies etc. Great job

    I didn't like Roopa's interpretation at first but I am SO glad I listened to the end. That was great!
