Description PLEASE!!! ENLARGE FOR BETTER VIEW!!!

Okay!!! This is the last pic' in the five(5) part TooL series...This is from the bands 3rd Cd and by far thier most popular,(3x Platnium!!!),... "Aenema" .This song DOES have a video that was only seen during the bands last tour. If you go to this site... [link] you can see the designs for the video.

The song is about the next natural elvolution of mans being/soul. We as humans have 44 & 2 chromosomes and when we evolve to the next level...46&2, that is what is called by many the "Christ Consciousness". This and the next two levels after that tie into Lateralus, whisch is belived to be the numeric equation to the Big Bang!..i know, ..." WTF?!"..its a very cool idea and this is the site to read up on it!... [link]

The man inside the worm is what our next level will be...the worm is us now...
" My shadow's shedding skin I've been picking my scabs again. I've been crawling on my belly clearing out what could've been I've been wallowing in my own chaotic and insecure delusions. I wanna feel the change consume me, feel the outside turning in. I wanna feel the metamorphosis and cleansing I've endured within my shadow. Change is coming. Now is my time. Listen to my muscle memory. Contemplate what I've been clinging to. Forty-six and two ahead of me."

My shadow's Shedding skin and I've been picking scabs again. I'm down digging through my old muscles looking for a clue. I've been crawling on my belly clearing out what could've been. I've been wallowing in my own confused and insecure delusions for a piece to cross me over or a word to guide me in. I wanna feel the changes coming down. I wanna know what I've been hiding in my shadow. Change is coming through my shadow. My shadow's shedding skin I've been picking my scabs again. I've been crawling on my belly clearing out what could've been I've been wallowing in my own chaotic and insecure delusions. I wanna feel the change consume me, feel the outside turning in. I wanna feel the metamorphosis and cleansing I've endured within my shadow. Change is coming. Now is my time. Listen to my muscle memory. Contemplate what I've been clinging to. Forty-six and two ahead of me. I choose to live and to grow, take and give and to move, learn and love and to cry, kill and die and to be paranoid and to lie, hate and fear and to do what it takes to move through. I choose to live and to lie, kill and give and to die, learn and love and to do what it takes to step through. See my shadow changing, stretching up and over me soften this old armor. hoping I can clear the way by stepping through my shadow, coming out the other side. Step into the shadow. Forty six and two are just ahead of me.

"You can't rip the skin off the snake.
The rate of its shedding is already determined."

Paraphrased.... "Be Here Now, Now Be Here" ....

One of the most influential and rising (as far as energy is concerned -- watch that prana quicken!) songs of the TOOL repetoire, it is quite the mighty spell played upon my brain.

It is so: The way of my mind is malleable to a great extent.
Stimulus shapes it. TOOL is a wonderful ....tool.

Mind + TOOL = Awe. "Perception of beauty awakened."

I wonder if I am the architect of these wonders, or if I am the watcher standing by as the Love of Light works its magic upon the substance of my mind.

...

It's a wonderful piece, I can connect emotionally and intellectually (and a bit more "lly"s as well, but these will go unnamed) with your art. The image slithers into my mind and winds itself around my thoughts until it is caught in --that place-- of Going Beyond.

As can be seen from the strange comments I leave you!

(For surely...surely....?

not strange my friend...rather a welcomed sight of hope, light within a bleak "snowdrift".

"I'm down, digging through my old muscles, looking for a clue."

God, you're amazing. The disturbing, eerie feeling to it is completely jaw-dropping.

Fuckin' incredible, man. Do more Tool art.

HA, and all this time i thought they were singing about mid life crisis. 46 years old with 2 kids. This version is much better, makes a hell of lot more sense at least... lol! (Laughing at myself). Very cool. The twisting, pulling & ripping of the worms symbiot looks great.

hmm, thinking back to biology class.. i thought that we have 46 chromosomes - or you mean 44 & 2 = 44 + 2 = 46? and thus, 46 & 2 = 46 + 2 = 48? if not.. i'm kinda confused.

but do the number of chromosomes really have anything to do with our complexity? I thought some animals had more complex dna then us, and some had less... of course, that one i'm less sure about...

strane i never really hear what songs say. forty six & two is one of my favorite tool songs but only because of how it sounds - not the words. hmm, that says something bad about me.. however, i could probably sing along to it.. just not tell you what the words mean. that is really odd.

HEY - i checked out a bunch of tool videos. a few i've seen before (the parabola one, and the one with the guy with tentacles coming from his eyes - er, next to them), others were new, all were good. still have prison sex, hush, and some others to go. thanks for recommending them.
