Brad knows better than to react to a Tool song without having the lyrics at the ready. It still always threw me off a bit because the album has Bill Hicks references (audio and visual) throughout, so I always kind of thought it might have been about Bill. It has Christ/Savior imagery, but it's never sounded like it's about Christ. It might not be about any one person in particular, I guess.

@@Kaddywompous it's not about Jesus at all. It's about martyrdom, in 0articular false martyrdom. Most specifically it's about Ron Hubbard and Scientology, but it can also apply to televangelists, cult leaders, political figures, basically a you walks around with the attitude that their death would be on par with a true martyr. "you claimed all this time that you would die for me, why then are you so surprised to hear your own eulogy?" Literally the opposite of Jesus or Joan of Arc or Tank Man, or any other real martyr who walk knowingly to death for their convictions. It's someone who wants all the reverence of a martyr but is then surprised when he's expected to die for those beliefs.

Not sure if this is who the song is about but that album is partially a dedication to late comedian and friend of the band, Bill Hicks. Even if the lyrics aren’t about Bill, I can’t help but see a connection, especially with lyrics like “he had a lot to say, he had a lot of nothing to say”. One of Hicks’ comedy albums was titled “Arizona Bay”, which of course is a line in the song Aenema.

This song is about L. Ron Hubbard. There are a few references to him and Scientology in the lyrics. From the lie detector sounds in the intro, looking to the sea, and 912 (Street address on the church) Tool was booked to play a convention and when Maynard found out it was Scientology, he just made sheep noises on stage. At the end of the song, Maynard warns of other false prophets who will follow in Ron's Footsteps

@@amydogert9965 Danny Carey labeled L. Ron Hubbard as the subject of "Eulogy". However, Maynard James Keenan has also said that his lyrics are always interpretations of the music, and it's therefore important to find your own meaning to songs. There has also been speculation that the lyrics could have referred to Bill Hicks, to whom the band had a close friendship, and also to whom much of the album is dedicated, in artwork and quotes on the song "Third Eye". Furthermore, Maynard said in an interview to Toolshed in 1997 that “…The song's about tendencies, not about a specific individual. It's about tendencies of people wanting to stand on a soap box and sacrifice themselves in some way. We don't need that process anymore. You're on your own now." I believe it’s L. Ron since Tool performed a concert at the Church of Scientology and used his interactions with them as his source material. That’s how I see it and plenty of others; if you don’t, then to each their own.

I appreciate being told the intro buildup sounds were maynard on a megaphone, and the plink plink plink sounds were played above the neck of the guitar, where the tension is super tight. It helps imagine a more organic and live stage build up instead of a stripped down and very slow intro.

My best friend and I attended Oz Fest in Tampa several years back. It would turn out to be our last concert together as he passed from cancer a year later. We were both HUGE TOOL fans. They were the most clear precise and very much the loudest show I've ever seen. And, I have seen a lot. I have a very specific memory of this song being preformed. It was so hot all day... smoking and doing our thing... Tool came on and it clouded up and even rained some. During this song, my chest was vibrating so hard and everything just turned kind of purple and I remember soaking that moment up with my buddy Mike. Still, hands down, my favorite show and moment in any concert. Including seeing Metalica / Ride the lightning at the monsters of rock.

It's about L. Ron Hubbard. He is also mentioned in the song AEnima...

Or it's about the guy they dedicated the album to, comedian Bill Hicks. The few people who can say for certain never will.

I love watching him trying to figure out the words and the meaning. It's Maynard and there are always multiple interpretations. I love watching her because she's into the music. All the little sounds and nuisances going on. So many layers upon layers to Tool. 27 years later I still find new meanings and different sounds and patterns in their music. Great job guys

This is very much a diss track. Maynard is being super sarcastic. The question is: who is he dissing? There are many theories, and Maynard being Maynard, he's never confirmed nor denied who it may be, but the theory that holds the most water for me is L. Ron Hubbard, the founder of the church of scientology. The band had reason for beef with the church, having played the Scientology Center during their early career and having been subjected to attempts and coercion from the church to join the cult.

I always thought this song was about the comedian Bill Hicks, who was Maynard's friend before he died. His picture is inside the inner-sleeve of the album cover. Bill Hicks' voice starts out the last song on the album, saying that grear musicians recorded music on drugs.

I love it! As a first time viewer of this channel, I am going to assume Brad is on the left and Lex is on the right. To me I loved watching Brad's first blush at reading the lyrics for what they are. A lot of "wait, wtf is MJK saying?". I also loved Lex's reaction that mirrored my own first half-dozen times listening to the song when I cared way more about the musicality, than the actual lyrics. Gotta say I love seeing people take a chance on something I really like and seeing their reaction. Thank you for this video!

Incredible track. Has slowly risen up my rankings of Tool tracks over the years. The more I hear the more details I notice and thoughts I have. This song has some wild key changes and disharmonic passages. Bass playing is incredible. I definitely feel like the song is about L Ron Hubbard. He had a 12 book volume of one story with absolutely nothing to say lol

This song is a eulogy for comedian, Bill Hicks. There are many references to Bill Hicks on the Aenima album. Arizona Bay is the title of one of Bill's albums. Bill also says, "Pry open your third eye" in one of his specials, that statement is in the song 'Third Eye', which begins with a clips of Bill Hicks as well. Check him out.
