Tool Sober Lyrics:
There's a shadow just behind me,
Shrouding every step I take,
Making every promise empty,
Pointing every finger at me.
Waiting like a stalking butler
Who upon the finger rests.
Murder now the path of "must we"
Just because the son has come.
Jesus, won't you fucking whistle
Something but the past is done?
Jesus, won't you fucking whistle
Something but the past is done?
Why can't we not be sober?
I just want to start this over.
Why can't we drink forever.
I just want to start this over.
I am just a worthless liar.
I am just an imbecile.
I will only complicate you.
Trust in me and fall as well.
I will find a center in you.
I will chew it up and leave,
I will work to elevate you
Just enough to bring you down.
Mother Mary won't you whisper
Something but the past is done.
Mother Mary won't you whisper
Something but the past is done.
Why can't we not be sober?
Just want to start this over.
Why can't we sleep forever.
I just want to start this over.
I am just a worthless liar.
I am just an imbecile.
I will only complicate you.
Trust in me and fall as well.
I will find a center in you.
I will chew it up and leave,
Trust me [x5]
Why can't we not be sober?
Just want to start things over.
Why can't we sleep forever.
I just want to start this over.
I want what I want [x4]
This is what rock is all about: sans the fancy and flair, just serious energy seizing everything. Missed these times when talents were still raw.
This is called absolutely losing yourself in the music. He isn't high. He's being taken back to what caused him to write these lyrics and feeling every emotion.
That was extremely well said
It should be noted however that they were on LSD on quite a few concerts. Dunno about this particular one though.
Nah he's probably high as fuck
He was tripping his balls off. research the bands early years. lmao
correct!
:)
penis
I love how Maynard just seems to be able to let go of any self-consciousness and just be in the soundscape. That takes serious balls.
Linkenski dude he's tripping acid
Mitchell Perry hell if you can trip acid and perform like that... kudos!
@@mitchellperry8268 how do you know he's on acid??
Mitchell Perry No, he's always acting weird like that
It has nothing to do with having balls it’s passion
No massive production. Just 4 guys killing it.
Pat Chris yes!!!!!
He has such a strange stage presence that I just can't get over. It's just crazy. I love it.
Its entrancing....odd movements, an shuffles/shakes, staring into nothing, reaching out for nothing. Its like a car crash I cant look away. Maynard = Genius, simple as that
Omg i know. Something about it is soo crazy sexy
Drugs. Lots of drugs.
It's called acid.
He looks like a rock version of a preacher
One of the most powerful performances I've seen. Pure emotion.
+Chuck Campbell Why do you say that? Is MJK a douchebag?
Most people take comfort in being told lies , they prefer to be shielded from the harsh truths of reality.
2:45 if you don't feel the energy you might not be human
CareyPortnoyBeauford love
CareyPortnoyBeauford still gives me goose bumps
I feel it
I was there. Mid day show, they opened the main stage, and along came Bad Brains, Stone Temple Pilots, Rage Against the machine, and Porno for Pyros. The rage set was the biggest mosh pit you have ever seen. So many bands in their prime. Awesome.
mark packham I’ve seen a lot of videos of that show, it looked amazing! I went to Lollapalooza in Chicago that year with a similar lineup. Tool, Rage, Alice In Chains and Primus. Definitely one of the most memorable concerts I’ve ever been to.
mark packham love porno for pyros
You're lucky to have been there
Hypnotized by Maynard's voice.
That is what called my attention to this band.. His voice is so amazing, I can't believe it's real, or from this world at least
Have heard better singers in bars
We said he is amazing, not the best. Just pay attention next time
SepticSchizo955 you are full of 💩
Saw them in Oct. of '96 at a small college in Tacoma (University of Puget Sound)... and Maynard was painted blue. From head to toe.
And wearing white boxer shorts with little hearts on them. Perfect.
me too, didnt they say they were late to the stage because they were playing monopoly??
Heh ! Probably. Sounds like them.
One of the only bands that brings true emotion to me. Every time I think about ending it all I watch and listen to Tool non-stop.
hey friend.. saw your comment watching this epic performance. Just wanna check on you and make sure everything is okay? hope all is well
what a voice....
I just heard this in my car and had to see it live... knew it had to be great!!!!
I hope when humans are long gone the next species discovers a TOOL record finds a way to listen to it, then just sits there fucking jamming ... anyways heres Tom with the weather.
This was the song that introduced me to Tool roughly 12 years ago. I've been a fan ever since.
Jimmy Hendrix Had exactly the same experience.
I'm so happy I have this in common with Dwight
I like this better than the studio version for one small weird reason - in the chorus. The “we” in “why can we not be sober”(also the “to” in “just want to start this over”) (good example: 2:45 - 2:59) in the studio version it sounds like two notes and is more melodic. Here it sounds strained like he’s yelling it sort of. And it creates an interesting note and overall feeling. chills 👌🏼
I love how everyone is just standing there listening going damn...
Original Pink Guy
Lmfaooo
Mind numbing performance. 👍🏻
I’m 65 years old.
a pure heart of a songwriter who shows and let us hear it.
No studio. Live n it still is one of the greatest songs ever
He looks like my grandma when she tries to stand up
and ur grandma sings like him? i d like to watch
i wish she could but no :D
U have manners, I am sorry for the offensive comment
I dont think you understand why he made the comment.
The Solid Truth that's the funniest Shit I've read in weeks bro
Certainly one of the most intense performances from a concert I've ever seen. Part of me wishes I was there to experience this live. Part of me doesn't think I'd really be able to appreciate it like I can, now. Part of me thinks I'd be trampled in the mosh lol... I'm just glad I'm able to see/appreciate it, now.. Thanks for posting.
***** i kind of miss him doing this type of things. it's like now he has become an even more shy person, you can barely see him on the stage, he only sings in the dark.
anyway, love tool, love maynard, arguably the best band in the world.
WOOT You were so privileged to be there to experience the out of this world performance . Wish I get time machine.
the emotion and talent has been real for a long time here.
2019 still amazing 👌
this performance is the best, ever. i want to have this band.
Tool will go down in history as 1 of the greatest bands of all time! All members are top notch! Must see if you can, you will never forget it!!
I feel like this was meant to be played as loud as I'm playing it right now.
Louder
He plays the emotion of the song so well. The music moves through him and he moves to the music.
I love how he deals with being uncomfortable in front of so many people. Pick someone behind the main crowd and sing like it's just you and them. I've sang in front of crowds and having anxiety is a bitch. It works!!
True, but he is a mix though. Someone with serious social/performance anxiety would never think of dressing so adversely, Maynard is the perfect mix of awkwardness and desire to make a statement.
One of the best performances of all time...
wow that performance was awesome.
That acid is high on Maynard
That voice, always give me chills
one of the most amazing concerts i ever got to attend.. UNREAL
Still after all these years.. Amazingly Powerful.... time will never wash away these great performers...
He just creates the "moment" as he tells the story, truly amazing vocalist and an Amazing band as a whole!!!! 🤘😲🤘😎🤘
este grupo siempre me llego a la consciencia... joderrrrrr!
This is FUCKING AMAZING...one of the best performance ever...Maynard is a living legend!
What a performance, wow.
His voice is so beautiful it sings of unmatched pain 2024
The visual is jarring, but the vocals are so impeccable, it's painful. His voice is golden.
Always come back to this performance. Incredible stage presence that properly portrays the paranoia of the words into live action. Aside from musically being one of the greatest songs of the 90's. Adam Jones + MK are a lethal combo.
This is just......straight goose bumps. I wish there were more bands with energy load like Tool.
This was my fist Tool show! Hooked ever since!! I feel lucky to be the right age to have had and the ability to continue to enjoy the music if this incredible band!! Led Zeplin is their only equal!
That Masterpiece, I mean, MONSTERPIECE is 20 years old, and is still amazing... This has to be a future audiovisual relic.
2019 Still awesome!, You can feel the music in your soul!
Nunca canso de rever essa performance épica.
I seriously love Tool!
Ah the days when Maynard actually performed in the front of the stage
So many artists and musicians go through gear upgrades as their career progresses, but a few weeks ago I saw these guys play live and Adam was playing that same guitar, just with different pickups. Very crazy over twenty years, he's using the same guitar.
wow, i have just rediscoverd pure musical bliss, maynard is a shaman and a very evolved soul.
Perfect ! Just a masterpiece ! I would listen to it endlessly and always would shiver! And why not! It's f***ing Maynard!!!!
I Love Maynard❤❤❤He is pure passion and emotion... a complete artist.
Man That pick slide is wicked!!!! This is what happens when everyone combines skills and it just WORKS Im not a massive fan of tool but the songs i do like well ...... Fucking sends shivers down my spine.....
Adam Jones so under rated.
Watched this over 20 times and it still gives me goose bumps at 2:40 live performance I have ever seen
So powerful!!
wow this song is a classic now
thanks for this video...fucking awesome quality; especially Maynard's vocals!
This is one of my favorite live on earth ! :)
Vocals are awesome just amazing
His pipes are absolutely perfect here. Thanks for sharing this hypnotic performance.
2019 Maynard still has my heart, last seen him in Pittsburgh PA.
god that voice is so fucking powerful
Absolutely amazing voice
this was before auto-tune, when you actually needed talent to be a singer, Maynard, amazing!!!
Montana Toni no. This was not before auto tune. Pitch correction as been around for decades
And before Autotune there was Playback.
People have been using playback to get over the no talent factor for decades before....
@@wreckddrummer 1994 came around, this concert was in 93
Dammit. I was in the womb at the time this concert was going on, I wish I could have born earlier so bad so I could have experienced them in their prime!! I'm still lucky considering they played for the first time in ages in Reno last March and I got to see them, but still!
Jessie Efshfsduydguyf how was that show?
Jessie Efshfsduydguyf i was in the womb for this too lol
a gift from God, thanks Maynard!
Man.... this was already 20 years ago... 8(
The only guy who can pull off a pink onesie and still be hot,lol.
Stephanie M : yes!!
I beg to differ: ua-cam.com/video/dzc5vW9Ze44/v-deo.html
You think he’s hot? A demon possessed man with dead eyes spewing contempt for everyone is hot? Okay Got it. I hate that I love him so much.
The original 'romphim'
I had to watch live to hear if they are so good as studio version, it's amazing
That bass that kicks in at 2:23 is epic
Menard has really an amazing voice!
fantástica actuación y puesta en escena
I love this man
finally a version that's in sync
If this doesn’t give you chills everytime you hear it are even a tool fan?
Maynard was raw emotion and complexity. He was like the Butoh dancer of Rock during his time.
so brilliant!
maynard is awesome, i didnt see him blink once in that entire performance.
It was a hell of a decade.
HIs voice is just as electric and biting as Adam's guitar.
incredible.
Maynard gave me godamm chills
this is the tool i remember. front and center. honest & forefront w / the audience. tools later shows maynard chose to be in background which in my opinion detracted from thec experience of a tool show. this is the raw tool.. unafraid & in your face that i remember. they still went on to create several songs i still like. but this live formula i wish they would have kept as constant.
Thanks for uploading this :)
F"n awesome....seen tool since 1992...never saw this show...but the recording is great....funny though how young they all are....makes me feel old
the intensity is epic!!!
Tight.
Well damn, that was fun!
This guy is just fucking amazingly talented.
I still remember skkiny dippin while tripin listenin to this track....
Thank you for this video so much..... Finally saw them for the first time live at Brixton around 2000, having already been a fan since before this concert. Seen them a bunch of times since and always blown away. Usually people need an IQ over 130 to appreciate them, that's why Britney sells more shit.
first time I hear this song and Im like woww
Love this song.
Holy shit Maynard is rrrrrrrrrreal fucking high on drugs, but sings his heart out and i loved it
you realize he went to art school and he was a stand up comedian, he's just acting
The gentleman singing may be high on drugs. Does anyone have any proof? Performing such an intense song and making the thousands of people happy should be the focus of discussion.
Destroyer of Evil seriously? have you ever seen tool live Maynard is always dancing in the shadows these days, he went to art school, he is a comedian, no one who look like there about to kiel over has as much energy as he does, he is acting. Yes i'm certain he has done his fair share of drugs but as he once said "its something you do once and try to recreate over the next 10 years"
Stelio... Stelio Kontos
This defines holding your own. GET IT MAYNARD.
3:54 that guitar opening 😍😍😍
He is sooooo baked right there.
Epic.
