The big crescendo, "overwhelmed as one would be placed in my position..." has got to be one of the finest and most underrated TOOL moments in history. All the chaos resolves into that moment in a beautiful release, like having your third eye open and witnessing all the beauty.
One of the finest moments in music history
It is also the feeling one gets when their acid trip shifts from beautifuly enlightening into collapsing uncertainty.
@@wearenotamused6455 i was going to mention that it reminds me of a mushroom trip where time stops and you feel suspended in space.
I thknk we're both correct.
I can't tell you how many times I've listened to lost keys/ rosetta stoned over the years but that crescendo still gives me goosebumps everytime I hear it.
@@garthc5994 100% agree with you. There are so many moments like that will TOOL. Another great example is in Jimmy, the landscape the music paints as the line "under a dead Ohio sky" is sung, instantly paints picture of bleakness and emptiness. Every single time.
They're conveying how difficult a psychedelic trip is to describe and how chaotic it can be in your mind through not only the lyrics but how they're presented and the instrumentation. Pure f*ng genius.
Buy the ticket...
Take the ride!
Over 25 years later I never thought I would see Tool reaction videos become this major UA-cam sensation. When I first started listening to Tool people were afraid of them thought they were devil worshippers or something. Some of the most intelligent musicians out there. This is awesome though, Tool fans love seeing other people discover how talented and unique they are.
This ☝🏿👌🏿
On your next listen of this song, be sure to listen to Lost Keys as it’s an intro track to Rosetta Stoned! Much love 🤘🏼
*and follow the lyrics. I NEVER tell anyone to follow the lyrics on ANY of their other tracks, but this one is .must
Lost keys is my fav
Lipan Conjuring, then Lost Keys, Then Rosetta Stoned. LC is the shamanistic ritual that starts the trip, LK is the aftermath, RS is the attempt of the person tripping to explain WTF happened.
The Lipon were a smaller tribe of the Comanche.
"I don't know what they did with the vocals, but it's a trip." Yes, yes it is.
Literally 👽👁️
Rosetta Stoned, more than probably any other Tool song, requires multiple listens to truly appreciate. I would recommend listening to "Lost Keys (Blame Hoffman)" with it next time you listen, as they are meant to go together and really sets up the premise of the story being told. I would also recommend reading the lyrics along with the song to gain another level of appreciation. I felt the same way as you the first time I heard. It's so chaotic and weird, but now, after many, many listens, it has become yet another favorite of mine.
30 year fan of Tool and this has become my favorite of theirs b/c the complexities are so god damn fascinating once you put it all together.
I agree. It took me long time but now its a solid Top 3 Tool song for me. Amazing!!
"E.T. revealed to me his singular purpose.
He said, "You are the Chosen One,
the One who will deliver the message.
A message of hope for those who choose to hear it
and a warning for those who do not."
Me. The Chosen One?
They chose me!!!
And I didn't even graduate from fuckin' high school."
Imagine being "that guy"
Holy fucking shit
@@sintaxera best line in history
I think you nailed it by saying this song was controlled chaos. And that's partly why i love it. As others mentioned it's based on a drug fueled story, one that creates chaos in the mind. The music and vocals reflect that beautifully.
This shit uses around 6 different time signatures and switches between them quite often, and then there's multiple rhythms going on at the same time. Nobody can properly vibe to this on first listen, and I don't care how good they think they are as a musician or listener. It's too unpredictable. I was always drawn to this kind of music. Sounds very sincere and original to me.
That's why I got into The Mars Volta in 2008
i've discovered them about a year ago and i can't get enough of everything they do. nezaměnitelní.
This is one of their acquired tastes songs that will eventually grow on you, especially reading lyrics and understanding why it’s structured in this way. I’d save 7empest and Third Eye for that reason! Know them first!
Justin Chancellor is such a beast on this song
Djent af
Lyrically.. it's a hell of a trip! Tx from Québec Canada 🇲🇶🇨🇦🤟
The vocals are layered at the part you reacted to - low speaking voice with normal singing voice - creates a very cool effect!
Wow - didn’t expect you to jump into this one so early in your Tool Journey!
I told you to do Lost Keys + Rosetta Stoned together…. We’re gonna have to sit down and have a talk 🤣
im diggin the TOOL grind you been on
10 000 days was an album that really pushed the auditory limits into a zone where it not only encapsulated the essence of previous Tool records, but took "us" the listener to another headspace and in some way's challenged the meaning of what a song is and should be. At this point in their discography you should be feeling the music more than trying to understand what you just heard.
Listening to Danny Carey do what he does is my happy place
My favourite song on 10000 Days, an instant classic 🤘🤘
One of my favorite Tool songs.. It's better with lost keys and having lyrics to read.. I didn't know what the hell it was about until years later lol. Great Channel 👍 love your reactions.
This song was about a DMT trip and it may have helped listening to Lost Keys first as it sets the mood. You should react to Right in Two next.
It doesn't really help because a lot of the dialogue is so quiet even if you're listening to it so loud that you really can't fully understand what the doctor and the nurse are saying half the time you get the gist
And I believe it's actually a story that was told to them by Harry Manback from green jelly
I’d even listen to Lipan Conjuring before that, where the tripping began.
@@heyskipj yes! Finally someone mentioned this 👍
@@heyskipj I learned last year that the Lipan are an Apache tribe, and that this was a peace chant.
Great reaction again! Happy Independence Day to all the TOOL fans out there! Remember Freedom isn't Free 🇺🇲 🇺🇲 🇺🇲 ✌️
I've been listening to TOOL since '92, and I've seen 'em 4x live. You will do yourself a disservice if you don't ever see them live. Oh, at 6:28 in your vid is when it really gets good for the rest of it and then at 8:30 your life changes. TOOL is the truth.
Always awesome to watch someone discovering TooL for the first time. This song Is incredibly intricate and the timing is insane. Not many people or bands could write a story into a song. Sonically, it's confusing but give it a few listens and it all makes sense.
This is the last song I was listening to coming home from work last night.
This one is so complex that it took time, but it's become one of my all time favorites of any genre. But, you should have done this one with Lost Keys first. It leads into Rosetta Stoned.
Even the track before that, Lipan Conjuring leads into Lost Keys. Basically Lipan Conjuring is the "peyote trip" in the desert with the Native American shaman. That leads him into Lost Keys at the hospital where he then tells the Doctor the story of what happened, which is what Rosetta Stoned is.
Read the lyrics, loads of humor in this one. It's inspired by a friend of theirs who had a DMT trip and these songs are basically the story.
You gotta hit Stinkfist, Schism, and Lateralus after this. Pretty amazing mix
Add Pneuma & Sober and my top 5 list is complete 👍🏼
For this one I need a manual to swim through the versatile area of "one" piece of music. Goddammit. They should name a band as this Title. Period. 🤯🥳
Keep the Tool reacts coming! Love your takes and seeing your journey to becoming a part of the Tool army.
I recommend "Passive" by Perfect Circle. It's a production of Maynard and Reznor.
This one takes a few listens to really get into. Its now one of my favourites. Lost Keys definitely goes with it. Enjoy!
If anyone hasn’t seen the JohnKew drum cover of this track, I highly recommend it
Dude was epic. I been watching his playthrough just for a live drum sound. Always worth it
Likewise
Take a breather. Let your mind un-melt a bit. It’s absolutely an experience, you got that fact locked in. If you were experiencing this album in its entirety (and yes you missed out on the prelude to Rosetta), following the chaos you just experienced, would be the beautiful calm melodic “Intension.” That is one of the tracks others have interpreted as “cleansing the musical palette.”
But more importantly, it leads into one of the most lyrically powerful tracks of my lifetime, speaking on the state of humanity, “Right In Two.”
It is clear, concise, and to the point, right from the get-go. So very powerful is the statement this track makes, that I have no doubt it will help better prepare you for the other suggestions I and others have made.
While out of chronological order, 10,000 Days is much easier to digest, and will no doubt help you get into the right frame of mind for the very complex experiences and messages you will find in several of the tracks from Lateralus. Namely the title track from that album.
However, it should be noted that it is one of the later tracks on its namesake album, followed only by the proverbial “Holy Trinity” and what most would consider an outro.
You’re all the way in and falling quickly down the rabbit hole, my friend. Heed my advice, and prepare to really keep spiraling 🌀 ✨
TOOL are "growers" not "show-ers". I am a part of the TOOL army and I love every song except one, but every single time an album comes out I am like, "what the hell is this?" Because each one is unique and seems to have a different "theme" or musical influence and sound very different from the last album, even if they're signature sounds are still present. After the third listen I become mesmerized, it's just so different and complex. Every new album becomes my favorite TOOL album. They truly have mastered their craft!
Which one dont you like?
You should react to Lateralus next! 🤘
Mega upvote on this
#toolarmy
He’s not ready
I'm here for the Tool reactions. As you already know, Tool is probably one of the most complex band's that exist. That being the case, you would be well served taking a moment to look up and read about a particular song before you react to it...just to have an idea of what the song is actually about, or if the song has an intro. In this song's case, it's (ostensibly) about a person coming down off an acid trip and recounting to hospital workers his experience. Notably, being abducted by aliens and given a warning about humanity's end, but he can't remember what they said, forgot his pen to write it down, and ultimately shit's the bed.
You should definitely check out Red Miso - Animals As Leaders. This will blow your head off!
The way Justin and Danny work off of each other is amazing
Big boy music 👍#toolarmy❤️🖤
Yep, this song is a tough one for the newly initiated. Hell, it was a tough one for me when this album dropped and I had been a fan for more than a decade and had been not so patiently waiting for this album for 5 years. It is impossible for me to pick a favorite Tool song, but this one is always a contender (which isn't saying a lot, as most of them are. Haha). I love your reactions man, I appreciate the way you do it and really enjoy your breakdowns - you are genuine and really seem to appreciate the music. Cheers!
You are my favorite Tool reactor! love it. Keep the videos coming!
🙏🖤
I don’t know how many Tool songs you have heard. Honestly I got to this video after watching you react to Jinjer. You are doing the Tool experience 100% correct, headphones and eyes closed. Their music is such a calibrated machine.
Your reaction was great! Especially considering you didn’t lean on Lipan Conjuring or Lost Keys. Rosetta ages well. The lyrics took a looonng time to hit me. The preceding two tracks really sets the stage that you’re amping up for an audio trip.
Into Rosetta, the music bed going bonkers is a part of the crazy lyrics/story, switchups. I also feel Maynard’s thought-streaming lyrics as the Patient. He’s deeply anguished as he knows this is another thing he’s f’ing up in his underwhelming life. Typical.
Now, he’s being medicated to calm down and forget because no one believes this important thing he has been chosen to share is real. He gets why we can’t handle it because he can’t handle it!
Besides, he forgot to write it down. Then he shit the bed. So we have no excuse but to label him “crazy” and try to help him forget.
Could be wrong. Overall it’s a funny, but sad song to me.
Didn’t someone tell you to order some more appetizers before going into these Tool entrées? 🐮😆
End it like that breh? 🤣🤣
Guy on a LSD trip (deadhead chemistry) who encounters aliens & doesn’t know if it’s real or just the trip….or both, lol Now he’s in the psych ward bc he’s driving himself crazy trying to figure it out
And supposedly, it was Bill Manspeaker of Green Jellö, at a UFO convention or something, high on shrooms n acid, relaying this experience to Danny.
@@dan.j.boydzkreationz dude, I didn’t know that but makes it so much cooler of a story lol
@@MrPigFister201 absofuckinlutely
He goes “where’d that come from?!” Hahaha
Surprised me haha
Alrighty, then ... picture this if you will.
10 to 2 AM, X, Yogi DMT, and a box of Krispy Kremes,
in my "need to know" pose, just outside of Area 51
Contemplating the whole "chosen people" thingy
when a flaming stealth banana split the sky
like one would hope but never really expect
to see in a place like this.
Cutting right angle donuts on a dime
and stopping right at my Birkenstocks,
and me yelping...
Holy fucking shit!
Then the X-Files being,
Looking like some kind of blue-green Jackie Chan
with Isabella Rossellini lips, and breath that reeked of
vanilla Chig Champa
Did a slow-mo Matrix descent
Outta the butt end of the banana vessel
And hovered above my bug-eyes, my gaping jaw,
and my sweaty L. Ron Hubbard upper lip,
and all I could think was:
"I hope Uncle Martin here doesn't notice
that I pissed my fuckin' pants."
So light in his way,
Like an apparition, that
He had me crying out,
"Fuck me
It's gotta be
the Deadhead Chemistry
The blotter got right on top of me
Got me seein' E-motherfuckin'-T!"
And after calming me down
with some orange slices
and some fetal spooning,
E.T. revealed to me his singular purpose.
He said, "You are the Chosen One,
the One who will deliver the message.
A message of hope for those who choose to hear it
and a warning for those who do not."
Me. The Chosen One?
They chose me!!!
And I didn't even graduate from fuckin' high school.
You'd better...
You'd better...
You'd better...
You'd better listen.
Then he looked right through me
With somniferous almond eyes
Don't even know what that means
Must remember to write it down
This is so real
Like the time Dave floated away
See, my heart is pounding
'Cause this shit never happens to me
I can't breathe right now!
It was so real,
Like I woke up in Wonderland.
All sorta terrifying
I don't wanna be all alone
While I tell this story.
And can anyone tell me why
Y'all sound like Peanuts parents?
Will I ever be coming down?
This is so real
Finally, it's my lucky day
See, my heart is racing
'Cause this shit never happens to me
I can't breathe right now!
You believe me, don't you?
Please believe what I've just said!
See the Dead ain't touring
And this wasn't all in my head.
See, they took me by the hand
And invited me right in.
Then they showed me something
I don't even know where to begin.
Strapped down to my bed
Feet cold and eyes red
I'm out of my head
Am I alive? Am I dead?
Can't remember what they said
God damn, shit the bed.
Hey ...
Overwhelmed as one would be, placed in my position.
Such a heavy burden now to be the One
Born to bear and bring to all the details of our ending,
To write it down for all the world to see.
But I forgot my pen
Shit the bed again ...
Typical.
Strapped down to my bed
Feet cold and eyes red
I'm out of my head
Am I alive? Am I dead?
Sunkist and Sudafed
Gyroscopes and infrared
Won't help, I'm brain dead
Can't remember what they said
God damn, shit the bed
I can't remember what they said to me
Can't remember what they said to make me out to be a hero
Can't remember what they said
Bob help me!
Can't remember what they said
We don't know, and we won't know (x12)
God damn, shit the bed!
Check out the lyrics in that first vocal chunk. Also, there's an intro that offers a little context
when I first listened to this masterpiece, was the day i realized I was born at the right time and century
Brilliant reaction Sean 🔥
Thank you!
This one might be Danny’s best work. And all of it out of this world.
Lol....loved it!
Love your audio production it sounded like I was there dude
Thank you!
This one is a grower for sure but it's my favorite Tool song. It's fantastic.
went balls deep into Tool with this song!
He might have went taint deep...hard to say...we'll find out in the morning
😂💀
The first time I heard tool it was in my Lutheran church we placed a cd in the jam box that cd was undertow and listened to it I felt like it could teach me somthing I long for knowing I just not sure what that is bill hicks also helps me so does kraftwerk
This band is so damn good. Danny with those swiss army triplets blows me away every time
💯
This song is incredible but you needed to be walked in.....there were (2) preludes to this that set the story up......the song is about a "Trip" (yes that kind of trip)....in the beginning of the song he is full on tripping, hallucinating and telling us what he saw and experienced...."Like that time Dave floated away" "Fuck me, it must the deadhead chemistry"... "that blotter got right on top of me"..."Got me seeing E Motherfucking T"....as the song progresses he starts to come down, "cany anyone tell me why you all sound like Peanuts parents" but he remembers being told to deliver a message for afar....they chose him......even though "He didn't even graduate fucking high school" But he didn't write it down because he forgot his pen.......shit the bed again.........the Vocals become more and more clear as he comes down from the trip....culminating in the full TOOL experience...incredible guitar riffs, the 4 stringed time keeper that allows Tool to fly and the alien like drumming of Danny Fucking Carey!!!!!
You want the text for these ones.
If you listen to Meshuggah, you'll hear the chug of Djent, which is a genre that they originated. Justin Chancellor is playing djent under the guitar solo. It's intermittently palm-muted bass.
So, according to Danny Carey, one of the band's good friends told them a story about a time when he went into the Nevada desert near Area 51 and took some really strong acid (lyric - must be dead-head chemistry, blotter got on top of me) and some 'Yogi-DMT' and he told them he was abducted by aliens and they took him and gave him a message for humanity - but he was so fucked up he couldn't remember what it was (But I forgot my pen..)
The next thing he knew he woke up and was strapped to a bed in hospital and he had shit himself and had no fucken idea where the hell he was or how he got there.
Danny said he wasn't sure whether to believe him or not, but he said he was obviously really spooked out about the experience and in his words 'something definitely happened out there..'
Then the next thing they knew Maynard had written these lyrics to one of the songs they boys had composed.
You gotta see/react to the drum cover of this song done by johnkew.
I will say you are probably not ready for this track yet 😂 The is so much to this track, I will guarantee you in the next year, this will be one of your favorites. Wait to you get to the lyrics & the humor with this track & Lost Keys. 🤘🏻
Bro…No Lost Keys?. It’s like watching star was starting with Empire Srtikes back. You shit the bed again 🤣👊.
Wars
Oh shit 😭😂
You poor bastard this one is in the wayyyy deep end of things lol
I’m drowning 😵💫
I’m just gonna keep saying it, do their catalog front to back. It’s an even better experience feeling the progression.
The bass and drums carry this song
Awesome song. Try one of Maynards other bands. Puscifer. Song- The conditions of my parole. Its awesome you will like it. Next Tool song please do my absolute favourite Tool song The Patient. Its such a beautiful track.
When I listen to this song now I prefer to think aliens really did give a message to a high school drop out who is a fan of better living through chemistry and it wasn’t just, as Terence McKenna would say, “a heroic dose” of very strong blotter acid.
Always a pleasure to see that look of total confusion when the vocals first kick in! After years of listening, I'm still not exactly sure what they did to get that effect.
They did some witchcraft mixing on this one lol
You gotta listen to Lipan Conjuring- Lost Keys- then! Rosetta Stone. Sets it all up.
where'd that come from!!!!! ive said this so many times in my TOOL therapy
Haha for real, they just have a way with music
👍👍👍
Great reaction my man. You should check out the drum cover of this song by Jon Kew. It’s impressive and will bring you a new perspective on the drums that Danny composed. 🤘
2 other songs pieces that go b4 this killer song.
“u gonna end it like that BRUH” lmaooo
I wasn’t ready for it to end! Lol
You missed the entire intro by not doing lost keys, it’s tells the story of him being in the hospital with the trip for this song. Good reaction anyway. You need to do a double song to make up for it. Try Opiate followed by Opiate2.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again now... whomever is NOT recommending that you have the lyrics in front of you, is doing you a disservice LOLOL
Spiral Out
I didn't even graduate from fuckin' highschool because I forgot my pen, god damn, shit the bed.
Rip
Ye boie
Yee 🤘
You're in the deep end now.
Deep end with no floaties 😂
@@SeanStaxxMusic Cement shoes, rip current and the life guards are playing Marco Polo in multiple time signatures. The only way out is in...good luck my guy! 🤣🙃
You should have the lyrics on standby for every tool song that has lyrics.
Good suggestion 📝
Please check out Arch Enemy new song Sunset over the Empire
ohh shit your in for a ride lmao
I had to buckle up for this one haha
@@SeanStaxxMusic 😂
Story is, true or not, this is about one of Maynard's friends who got abducted by aliens. Or at least thought he did and his experience afterwards.
11:35 we broke him
😂🤘
...typical...
Bro, you forgot to lose your keys first
Lol! Also left the pizza rolls in the oven 🤔
You think Eminem is the only vocalist with speed and bars?😏
No, there’s a ton of artists who got speed and bars. Eminem just has the most complex and genius level of writing.
The previous track "lost keys" sets up the story of this one. I totally recommend you check the lyrics for both. The lyrics are just as mind altering as the music! 🫠
