this was an earlier version, maybe not a demo but it was released in some way (i cant remember where or how) but then on the album it was a different version.... i prefer this version as well, mainly because of the cymbals at around 4 minutes, they give that part such a cool vibe. when i heard the album version i was confused and annoyed that they changed that part. they mustve thought it was "over playing" or drawing attention away from the vocal or something, but i think it really added to that part and gave it such a cool atmosphere. im rambling now. have a good day!
@@WillHerndonI totally agree.. and it was released on the original album but they took it away and then released the updated unauthenticated version lol I love this one!!!
No matter what, I just can't can't get enough of Maynard. Whether I'm listening to Tool, A Perfect Circle or Pussifer. I feel like Maynard is a genius. Pure genius! Love this song💜
ryanspears1986 Maynard is one of the best male vocalists and lyricists of all time and the way he used to move on stage in Tool is different on stage to what came before him. He’s harder to replace than any other member of the bands he is in. I don’t think there has ever been a better male vocalist in Rock than Maynard and he’s possibly the greatest known lyricist of all time hence the depth etc.
The drums are the real difference maker that makes this the definitive version to me. That and the higher last note that Maynard holds out…matters more to the experience of the song than you might think.
Every time I listen to A Perfect Circle or Tool I get emotional. Even when I think I won't I do. Thank you guys for creating beautiful music and memories for me.
Stone and echo live at red rocks is one the best live recorded shows ever recorded in the history of recordings. The vibe they set live is unreal. This is how music is supposed to be. Full of emotion and passion.
Moving in and out of the shadows Its no easier mission Holding onto how I picture you Showing only bits and pieces Till the tide betrays you and your empty allocution Searching your eyes for a hint or a trace of humility Searching your eyes for the saint is an act of futility Searching your eyes for a hint or a trace of it searching your eyes for humility searching your eyes for a hint or a trace I'm still searching searching Showing all the missing pieces Till the light betrays you and your empty allocution Saw the Piper by and down the river Caught his crippled alchemy From pounding waves of adoration Pied Piper float on down the river Bloated carcass crippled me The weight of adoration Moving in and out of the shadows Its no easy mission Holding on to how I picture you.
Funny you should say that. I'm getting a cover-up done on my left arm, which will be part of a sleeve that mostly consists of TOOL artwork. Just working on finding the right tattoo artist to do it.
Be careful who you let do it cause my sister got the A Perfect Circle symbol on her ankle and the guy really fucked it up. The guy who's gonna be doing the Lateralus eye for me is really awesome at tattooing so i trust him and he's tattooed a lot of my friends so I don't really have to worry there.
***** So she should fit in to what you consider "original"? It's only ruined if what is put there isn't meaningful. What does ruin your image is judgment, though....so I'd say, with your judging, you are ruined.
Maynard is an incredibly gifted genius. Fact He does alot of things with his life and not always public. The fact that hes gifting us with another album in 2018 is gracious as is. Hes sharing his mind with all of us. That isnt something you can rush. His music from any band is incredibly valuable to me and id rather wait if it means he comes out with awe inspiring things like this. Unlike many bands and musicians, he keeps coming out with music that is on par or better than his previous releases. Thats a rarity in and of itself. This man is an unspoken inspiration and has touched my life in so many ways and i will always be greatful and thankful for all of the hardwork that he, and all of his bandmates puts into their music. Im extremely eager to enjoy his new release. I really enjoy his intelligence in all aspects. A true inspiration to the open minded and anyone else who cares to listen.
APC has always been the absolute best blend of perfection in instrumental play and genius lyrics. Life changing music, never seen in the metal or other stages. Listening to this makes sense of still playing albums from 10 or so years ago. Every note, every pitch pulls you closer to being...
I think the vocals are way better on Eat the Elephant, and given the context of the song I think that might be more important, But yeah Freese would have made the rerecording even better.
The Universal Pigeon really? Fifty bucks says he's using some sort of Auto tune type of thing on that version. Not obvious here, though. Also the drums on this are dope as fuck...the hi hat when the heavy guitar bit ends....much better than whatever the fuck they did re recording it.
by and down" Moving in and out of the shadows. It's no easy mission, Holding on to how I picture you. Showing only bits and pieces, Till the tide betrays you, And your empty allocution. Searching your eyes for a hint or a trace of humility. Searching your eyes for the saint is an act of futility. Searching your eyes for a hint or a trace of it. Searching your eyes for humility. Searching your eyes for a hint or a trace, I'm still searching, searching. Showing only bits and pieces, Till the light betrays you, And your empty allocution. Rode the Piper by and down the river. Carcass crippled underneath, The pounding waves of adoration. Pied Piper float on down the river. Bloated carcass, crippled knee, The weight of adoration. Moving in and out of the shadows. It's no easy mission, Holding on to how I picture you.
Ifitallfails Love this song, but I think it may be "bloated carcass crippled 'neath the weight of adoration". It makes more sense anyway, especially because the earlier line was "carcass crippled underneath the heavy waves of adoration".
I had to listen to this a few times, Once wasn't enough for me. APC is one of my favorite bands and always will be along with tool. Maynards lyrics are so wild.
This song has helped me to overcome my anxiety and dark thoughts. I have always loved APC and their music. Maynard Keenan poignant songwriting skills is impeccable.
Cripplingly beautiful! Maynard and Apc always find a way exposing and elevating our dirty bits as well as our fragility. There's something about their music that just chills my blood and I crave it like heroine.
Very well put. I ask did you intend on spelling heroine like in a story? Either way, very beautifully put. It's nice to see someone carrying and thinking about what they are saying to people. Think before speaking. Well done.
I can't even comprehend how much more sad a person Maynard has made me throughout the years I listened to his lyrics. And that's not even a bad thing. It's almost like neurotic suffering is mandatory part of the process of enriching ones inner self.
The silence is crying, whining, trying to solidify in my mind. Or is it in yours, just screaming out to mine. The time is nigh, beyong a feeling of high tide, drowned in fear beyond a lost sign. Hand in hand with myself, the pain never subsides but instead lies within the chimes of all crimes. Echoes and sins, locked in a tin, feeling as though nothing...exists. Presets to weakness, deafness and blindness to nothingness, Becoming hollow again, insanity in existentialism, while living deathly in premonition. Taking a last breath, to breathe somewhere less suffocating. Choking the dear life out of me. It seems to be, or not to be. Just let me see the me that is to be. Give me the keys and let me drive, not strive but be alive.
I've lucky enough to see APC quite a few times. Once met Maynard Keenan in a casino very nice man. He was there the show and playing at a table right before. My husband met a famous wrestler at a Cure concert at Shoreline in CA. He instantly knew who he was.
Love this music man, Its really helped with my spiritual awakening and the expansion of my mind. Meditation was made easier through starting while listening to Maynard, taught me how to access certain parts of my consciousness on command.
you gotta give it up for billy howerdel...that guitar man at the end just crying loud and carrying you the ringing out of that last note. this is pure genius
I went to a TOOL concert and cried the whole time. Then this very strong wonderful women looked at me dead in my face and said "1111" then she picked me up of my feet! EPIC! just EPIC!
This song is incredibly strong and i feel like but with ambitious and ready. I listen to this song before work and after at least everyday. It's a masterpiece best song by Maynard or who ever wrote the song. By the way he's a strange dude. Truly he could be the pope i wouldn't care as long as his music is playing. stranger the better. By and Down- forever be in bed into my brain.... PEACE ALL
This is absolutely amazing. The music, the lyrics, the experience I feel listening to it is so raw. This is a fucking timeless group. So is Tool and Pusifer. I fucking love y'all. You fill my days and nights with this awesome music that takes me away from all the bullshit around me and I thank y'all for real.
Ugh...I miss APC man. My favorite band of all time, I love every single song they have made and this might be my favorite. Maybe its just me clinging onto my favorite band, but damn listening to this really makes you feel like shit knowing these guys will most likely never make another album again.
98 people who are afraid to hear how they are supposed to feel. America, a place where we are convinced we shouldn't feel. Not by good media, but instead by cowards who hate the thought we are all conscious feeling beings. all desperately lost trying to admit to ourselves WE NEED TO FEEL THIS! absolute zero emotions is our own undoing. wake up america and feel normal.
This is the best version of this song on YT. None of the other videos sound like this. This is an all time classic. The most underrated classic.
this was an earlier version, maybe not a demo but it was released in some way (i cant remember where or how) but then on the album it was a different version.... i prefer this version as well, mainly because of the cymbals at around 4 minutes, they give that part such a cool vibe. when i heard the album version i was confused and annoyed that they changed that part. they mustve thought it was "over playing" or drawing attention away from the vocal or something, but i think it really added to that part and gave it such a cool atmosphere. im rambling now. have a good day!
@@WillHerndonI totally agree.. and it was released on the original album but they took it away and then released the updated unauthenticated version lol I love this one!!!
My guy loves compression
@@Puzzl3man lol yeah, im sure a good quality version of this is available somewhere online but im too lazy to look for it
So much better then the remastered version. I'm sorry to say but I can feel the proper emotion in this song.
Agreed
Yes!!!
Objectively better than the album version.
Vocal production on the album version was a huge disappointment. Harden the edges of a beautifully smooth object.
No matter what, I just can't can't get enough of Maynard. Whether I'm listening to Tool, A Perfect Circle or Pussifer.
I feel like Maynard is a genius.
Pure genius!
Love this song💜
Stephanie Jean Maynard's vocals are amazing, of course, but Billy Howardel is the real genius behind APC.
its spelled puscifer
Pure fucking genius he is. :)
ryanspears1986 Maynard is one of the best male vocalists and lyricists of all time and the way he used to move on stage in Tool is different on stage to what came before him.

I don’t think there has ever been a better male vocalist in Rock than Maynard and he’s possibly the greatest known lyricist of all time hence the depth etc.
I agree and Ashes diVIDE shows for it.
I love this slow tempo, higher pitched vocals and more interesting drum beat more than the new version.
Ditto, new version feels sold out.
New album needed one drummer and someone like freese to play naturally. Greyson nekrutman on Billy's solo stuff would have been a good choice
The drums are the real difference maker that makes this the definitive version to me. That and the higher last note that Maynard holds out…matters more to the experience of the song than you might think.
Takes me back to 2014 . Miss you papi joe
i played this song over and over for about 3 hours straight...i listened to it for the first time about 3 hours ago.
I can relate!!
Wow I'm right behind ya but on board 💯%
I know bad ass song
Every time I listen to A Perfect Circle or Tool I get emotional. Even when I think I won't I do. Thank you guys for creating beautiful music and memories for me.

Searching your eyes for the saint is an act of futility

I'm still searching searching
Showing all the missing pieces
Till the light betrays you and your empty allocution
Saw the Piper by and down the river
Caught his crippled alchemy
From pounding waves of adoration
Pied Piper float on down the river
Bloated carcass crippled me
The weight of adoration
Moving in and out of the shadows
Its no easy mission
Holding on to how I picture you.
I can't help but listen to this almost daily. I desperately need more APC and TOOL.
Same here. I can't wait til I get the Lateralus eye tattooed on me
Funny you should say that. I'm getting a cover-up done on my left arm, which will be part of a sleeve that mostly consists of TOOL artwork. Just working on finding the right tattoo artist to do it.

***** So...someone made clones of you, and now they surround you?
Wow.. This is an incredible soul melter. Simply astounding. I crave MORE!!!
Yep, definitely my favorite song by APC now. Maynard never fails to amaze me. He's a genius.
Mr. Keenan.. Your voice is ever-perfect.
This should be the only version...
Profundo... te transporta desde la intro hasta el final... magnifica, una de mis favoritas, espero que regresen con mas hits.

I like this versión more than the eat the elephant one
Definitely eat the elephant would be 100 times better if they had a competent drummer. They are so lifeless without fresse
I think the vocals are way better on Eat the Elephant, and given the context of the song I think that might be more important, But yeah Freese would have made the rerecording even better.

@@user-pb3cf5ws8f freese didnt write this songs drums too, as far as i know.
he's still using one these version to

Ifitallfails pearl jam its in a feeling..
People see pictures..
crippled me
A Perfect Circle, Tool, and Puscifer got me to clean up my life, they will always be held closely to my heart for that reason.
hell ya, them and Deftones got me in the best shape of my life. Hard to explain but yea. I love them with all my heart and soul
Yep, same - mostly Puscifer, which is interesting considering I listen to the others more, but there you have it
I agree. Tool songs remind me how much of an asshole I am and how much work I have to change that 🤔
I had to listen to this a few times, Once wasn't enough for me. APC is one of my favorite bands and always will be along with tool. Maynards lyrics are so wild.
This song has helped me to overcome my anxiety and dark thoughts. I have always loved APC and their music. Maynard Keenan poignant songwriting skills is impeccable.
The guitar notes in this are just perfect. Pulls at your emotions.
Cripplingly beautiful! Maynard and Apc always find a way exposing and elevating our dirty bits as well as our fragility. There's something about their music that just chills my blood and I crave it like heroine.

Definitely captures the spirit of Thirteenth Step. Pure uncut awesomeness once again! MJK and the Crew once again magic up some amazing work!
First time I heard it Maynard's voice actually brought a tear to my eye...this is is the one that moved me
Wow. Just, wow. This song is really hypnotizing. Great as always coming from a APC.
Yes, agreed I'm so anticipating their upcoming work-- an emotion that only comes from the experience.. Tuck
The vocals in the first line blew me away. That is just unreal talent.
I can't even comprehend how much more sad a person Maynard has made me throughout the years I listened to his lyrics. And that's not even a bad thing. It's almost like neurotic suffering is mandatory part of the process of enriching ones inner self.
This song alone is worthy a grammy.
Yes
All APC songs are except feathers that one sounds pretty terrible IMO and like a couple others... But u get the point😂
fuck a grammy
feathers is the best song on Eat the elephant
AGREED!!!
Chills... great song. Love.
I could listen to this daily on repeat.
Don't know what I like more a perfect circle or tool ! This song is amazing!
Im near tears.. 9 years now and worth it.
This version is so much better than the album....Amazing no matter what
Claps Hands. Listened to this when it was released. Continues to pop up in my inner radio from time to time.
got here from listening to a playlist of older Nostalghia songs and it all flows so beautifully

I can't believe I forgot about this song. Everything fits together beautifully
Love this music man, Its really helped with my spiritual awakening and the expansion of my mind. Meditation was made easier through starting while listening to Maynard, taught me how to access certain parts of my consciousness on command.
His music does sound like it came from someone who has a deep understanding of both the dark and light extremes of consciousness.
This is a great comment i love reading these things. I have experienced the same states in a transcendental way.
I second that!
❤❤❤ APC forever an ever...❤❤❤❤
I absolutely love this song!!!!
this song takes me to that place where i feel all warm inside,and there is no other place i would rather be.
you gotta give it up for billy howerdel...that guitar man at the end just crying loud and carrying you the ringing out of that last note. this is pure genius
I love this song...Alec all of apc's songs give me chills
the tone this music gives is so great puts me in a mellow mood
Love getting lost in Maynard's music...this song gives me the chills.
I love Apc . Definitely an underappreciated band in my opinion..
Just when I think I have heard all of your beautiful pieces, I hear another and fall in love all over again
So damn good. Welcome back APC. We missed you!
This is long overdue! Such a perfect song, no better way to define it really. I've missed APC since Thirteenth Step ( I wasn't a big fan of Emotive).
You know a songs good, when it gives you da chills :3
Great song, so quiet, so APC, nice piece of music that remember the song Gravity,
Top 5 fav songs forEVER. Maynard is a god/genius. I literally started bawling when they played this here in dallas ☺
I freaking love this song for the rhythm. Pretty damn awesome.
One of the best songs ever
This is my favorite song by A PERFECT CIRCLE
One out of five of all tool/perfect circle songs end up on my life's soundtrack since the early 90s...opiate....
This album sounds like it will be a masterpiece!
That's where my heart was. Thanks for helping me find it again, guys. :)
Omg this version sounds better than the album version! I mean they both are awesome versions!
UA-cam won't let me like this more than once! I rally, rally like this!!
I miss new music from this band so much. I want their new album so bad. This band has a sound to it that I have never found in any other.
I just got the chills myself , totally amazing
wow! never heard this version before!
Allocution . Interesting word. Maynard's lyrics only get better and were awesome to begin with. Each song is a multi faceted gem.
I went to a TOOL concert and cried the whole time. Then this very strong wonderful women looked at me dead in my face and said "1111" then she picked me up of my feet! EPIC! just EPIC!
Huh
noun: elocution
the skill of clear and expressive speech, especially of distinct pronunciation and articulation
noun: allocution
a formal speech giving advice or a warning.
This song is incredibly strong and i feel like but with ambitious and ready. I listen to this song before work and after at least everyday. It's a masterpiece best song by Maynard or who ever wrote the song. By the way he's a strange dude. Truly he could be the pope i wouldn't care as long as his music is playing. stranger the better. By and Down- forever be in bed into my brain....
PEACE ALL
have you ever heard a guitar cry
Holy shit.....
Beautifully Said......
only by Prince
ever heard of frampton or pink floyd or led zepplin , doesnt negate that this is a really good song too
Well, my guitar gently weeps.
by far the best song!!
This is beautiful
This is absolutely amazing. The music, the lyrics, the experience I feel listening to it is so raw. This is a fucking timeless group. So is Tool and Pusifer. I fucking love y'all. You fill my days and nights with this awesome music that takes me away from all the bullshit around me and I thank y'all for real.
tool and APC.
one of THE best bands ever
you mean TWO of the best bands ever
What about Puscifer? APC is the best of the three for me though
What do you mean about Puscifer when you ask what he means about Puscifer? Puscifer is never counted out, of the three, for me though
I agree on apc
Agree
I love how I find bands like this as suggestions 👍👍❤
Luv this song. Beautiful
wow....amazing. the beat is just beautiful
Such an underrated song!!!!
It's good to feel sad because one day you won't be able to feel it anymore.
rarely do I say this but this comment was incredible. thank you. so simple and so true, effective as an arrow to the soul.
sting is right . wow !!!
this is so true of a comment... well done
Very true.
Without sadness moments of happiness are less meaningful and taken for granted as well.
you are a wise person
never listened to this band until this song!
this relaxes me, it's art to my ears
Song is AMAZING
I still listen to this almost everyday!
This song is my new drug make me too high out of this world. Beautiful
Quality stuff, wish Tool would come out with a single, but they never would. Their vision is to produce an album as a whole piece of artwork.
So much of the Cure in this song.
Another masterpiece by an amazing band
Ugh...I miss APC man. My favorite band of all time, I love every single song they have made and this might be my favorite. Maybe its just me clinging onto my favorite band, but damn listening to this really makes you feel like shit knowing these guys will most likely never make another album again.
I feel the same way. I love apc. I love each song! Every time 3 libras comes on pandora I get excited.
+Daniel Pascarelli they are by far my favorite band as well. their music is artistic mastery at its finest
Just saw them in concert, announced new album for 2018. However did not like the new song they played from it.
Littld did he know.
Almost out now. It's gonna be good
almost sounds like a cure influence in this song. love it
98 people who are afraid to hear how they are supposed to feel. America, a place where we are convinced we shouldn't feel. Not by good media, but instead by cowards who hate the thought we are all conscious feeling beings. all desperately lost trying to admit to ourselves WE NEED TO FEEL THIS! absolute zero emotions is our own undoing. wake up america and feel normal.
Thanks for posting great song
After you find the cipher everyone is using you translate the glyphs to "L Sed Monc" which translates directly from Latin as, "But for the hills."
2024. Who's listening APC ?
2024🎉 My Pandora plays it approximately every seven songs. Puscifer station. One out of four or five songs will be something with MJK in it.
I am here.
I just saw them in concert a month ago, lol
My balls hurt
See ya next year!
you guys im eating breakfast and drinking tea while listening to this
Worf
I always enjoyed the songs Judith and Gravity but this... this is good.
What a beautiful song...
Just more stellar work. rock on unabated.
