A Perfect Circle is Maynard James Keenan's musically talented new group, it is not a side project. Tool is not gone for good though, Maynard looks forward to start recording the Tool album after this year's Canadian Somersault tour finishes. Maynard will have 3 weeks off at this point, and he will start to record the next tool album if the other band members are ready. Maynard has been trying to fire the other tool members up in recent interviews, so as to make sure they will be ready when he comes off from tour. FYI: Maynard wears a wig for APC concerts and photo shoots, he is still as bald as ever. As "Recreational Racism", Maynard and others played a series of covers country-style at the Viper Room in LA on August 15, 1999. Later that night, a new band called More... (Submit New A Perfect Circle Lyrics) (Submit New A Perfect Circle Lyrics) ~ | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Blue performed by A Perfect Circle As with all music, music is art, and art was created by the human race to form a way to escape reality and connect with others. Art was also invented to make the mind wonder and invent "Self Answers" to questions posed. There is no absolute correct answer for what this song means, but there is an illusion that you create yourself in your own mind, and that is the answer to the question posed. The question "What does it mean to You" @ashley | Reviewer: gunther ------ About the song 3 Libras performed by A Perfect Circle yes, i see it the same way. and it hurts to see through it all and not to be seen. it hurts not bein in the position to assist in dissolving due to she doesn't wand to resolve. then it's time to focus on love - and perhaps time to go. however, great song. Geeezzz | Reviewer: Josh ------ About the song Judith performed by A Perfect Circle Cmon guys. I see this on pretty much every tool/perfect circle forum. If you want to intellectually criticize something then instead of saying how much you hate God and religion provide some evidence. Writing in all caps and venting on a blog will not get your point across. Instead you should do what Maynard is suggesting you do about religion in this song, which is to approach it with strong skepticism, consider both angles. With that in mind, continue to INTELLECTUALLY,NOT HATEFULLY criticize Christianity, yet consider it before you do. I love Maynard and his music, but everyone including him who agrees with the message of this song should 1. get the ignorant hate out of their systems. and 2. read Job in the Bible. Or you could just keep being a hateful ignoramous and bash Christianity but never read the book or look at it in depth. Sounds alot like my Life | Reviewer: Ashley ------ About the song 3 Libras performed by A Perfect Circle Its about a girl that has been wounded in the past by others and she doesnt "see him" she sees "a name in recolletion a million the same". She just thinks of him as another guy and they are all the same.. shes a fallen angel. But, he can see through it all, through all of her past and wounds.. He can see her, before she became jaded. She can't see it though, hes expecting too much from the wounded.. even though he is making it obvious. My interpretation | Reviewer: Ashley ------ About the song 3 Libras performed by A Perfect Circle I think that the song is about her not being able to see through her past to be able to trust and see him for who he really is. He can see her through it all, but she can't see him. She thinks he is like everyone else, due to the wounds of her past, shes a "fallen angel". I Love Maynard | Reviewer: Heather ------ About artist/band A Perfect Circle I love APC (and Tool, and i am also enjoying Maynard's new band Pusifer) The music and Maynard's voice are amazing and great for taking any anger or stress I am feeling right away. The language could be better, but it is an amazing artistic expression, and I can live with it. Quote Wheelie | "God sure would have hated it if you ever listened to an intelligent song that might make you question your surroundings, political views, or enjoy life. Please learn to think for yourself before you judge." I understand your anger/frustration with people who can not open their minds please be aware that some people have flawed views of the world, you seem to also be one of those people. I am a Christian and have been for the majority of my life and have always been taught that God wants me to question everything and not just to follow blindly, which is why I love Opiate it reminds us to question religion and what we are being taught. Also that God loves (not hates) everyone, not only those who follow him (blindly or not). It would be nice if we all got our facts straight before we made comments that make us look ignorant. DESIRE.DRUGS. | Reviewer: KAYLA ------ About the song Weak And Powerless performed by A Perfect Circle this song is based upon drugs. but its also based about a "Want" a want for something you can't have. and you have no control over the situation. The video is kinda freaky. but i do enjoy watching it. when i smoke pot. i think to myself. wow, i just lunch. but this songs just reminds me that there is so much for to life then just getting high. and in orfer to get it you have to want it. so i love this song. and yea. i think its based upon drugs. and life. a mix . ya know OK THE SONG MEANING! | Reviewer: Miller ------ About the song Judith performed by A Perfect Circle For all of you debating Judith is his mother-She was a christian to the max She was injured Put into a wheelchair due to being paralyzed Now she died 10,000 days later(27 years=)Hence the CD title of Tools CD 10,000(Tool and a perfect circle-same singer Back to meaning She was made a vegtable and still had a undying faith to "God" and she was dying Meaning-You loved god so muched and look what he did,You did nothing. I feel were hes coming i was religios then i converted to paganism for personal resond Christanity is a jok and i have converted manry christians with proof that there wrong and im right Fuck your God, your Lord, your Christ | Reviewer: Panda ------ About the song Judith performed by A Perfect Circle I think that the fags here that said "Maynard doesn't know about suffering" didn't read a fuck about the real meaning of this song. JUDITH was maynard's mother, who died in 2003 (or so i think) after 29 years of PARALYSIS. She was a well known christian, so the meaning of the song would be like Maynard asking his mother: "where's your God now?" sorry for all grammatical mistakes, my native language is NOT English Another vantage point... | Reviewer: Some Austinite ------ About the song 3 Libras performed by A Perfect Circle O.k., for my lowly two-cents... It seems to be about a guy, who finds a girl... ...that much I'll give to. ...but he throws her the obvious, meaning that he has used some form of metaphor or idea, that has potential for bringing out deeper thought or consideration. And flying with it on her back, meaning that she has been 'tagged' as not being able to understand... Think of posting a piece of paper to someone's back. A name in your recollection, meaning someone that's been passed over, who's been passed down with the millions, who are the same... Difficult not to feel a little bit disappointed, and passed over... ...meaning that his disappointment, leads to the feeling that she had no idea of what or who he is. See you naked, but oblivious... ... to see her as the true-sense of her 'self' and her views and interpretations... Meaning, she might not be that bright. ;) Threw you the obvious, just to see what all goes behind the eyes of a fallen angel, eyes of a tragedy... Meaning, he tried all he could to invigorate some sense of intelligence in her. Apparently, nothing at all... Means, that she is nowhere near his level of thinking or understanding... So, she doesn't see him at all... ...for the intelligent being, that he is. This may allude to her shallowness and lack of depth, in personal character and morals. I could be completely wrong... Just dishing out my interpretations :) maynard is amazing... | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Gravity performed by A Perfect Circle I think too much emphasis is put on drugs. Its not BECAUSE of drugs, its the effect it produces, the opening of the mind. I believe this song is about his own inner struggle with finding himself, whether through drugs or a walk in the park, which seems to be supported by his recent work (Puscifer is AWESOME)and an interview I saw on ETV. Regardless...why analyze him to death...hes here, and hes amazing..enjoy! Jesus is the man | Reviewer: Ryan ------ About the song Judith performed by A Perfect Circle Dude screw you people dogging god jesus paid for your sins your committing every day you wait until you die and burn in hell for enternity. and maynard is a fag anyways he don't know what hes talking about dogging god like that just remeber something good happens in your life that is jesus. JESUS IS SAVIOR FOR ALL Thomas | Reviewer: Leigh ------ About the song Thomas performed by A Perfect Circle my boyfriend - Thomas - and I recently broke up. I know the song isn't about breaking up , etc. I've been a fan of APC ever since I was introduced to them when they first came out. But for me this is about my relationship. How I gave everything away.. secrets , desires , insecurities for years and didn't get much in return. Until you wake up one day and realise.. I'm just a walking zombie in this relationship. Anyway I digress :] The song's meaning is simple. | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Passive performed by A Perfect Circle People seem to try and analyze this song too much. It is simple, anyone who has been in a relationship with someone who is passive-aggressive understands this song very well, since there is not much too it as someone venting. Your passive-aggressive partner can very easily become your perfect enemy, since they know you and they know how to hurt you the worst. And trust me, there is nothing worst than dealing with a passive-aggressive person. To Sum up: *Dead refers to his relationship. *Whenever he refers to someone playing dead or not speaking is just the partner ignoring him. *The rest is him trying to say how much this behavior hurts the relationship. Passive-aggressive people never realize how much they hurt the relationship by acting that way. religion? | Reviewer: J-Bird ------ About the song Judith performed by A Perfect Circle religion, i dont want to start a big scene or anything. but religions stupid, its just another excuse to seperate yourself's from other people, because then you can start wars, which is actually over money, oil, greed. people can't stand being together, why do you think the united states is so stupid about legalizing marijuana, smokin dope makes you a peaceful passiviest, and the united states doesnt want lazy hippies, they want theyre people to go sacrifice them selves in iraq for there "believes". oh yeah mysticalmuz about that thing about haveing a struggle and making you stronger, i mean people dont thank god for giving them no money and haveing to struggle, but everytime something goods happens they always thank god for giving it to them. Its beautiful | Reviewer: Jen ------ About the song Judith performed by A Perfect Circle Well i must say that there was a whole lot of contradiction in the last comment; how is one person gonna say its ok for people to believe in what they want, and they shouldnt talk about people who believe in God...then turn right around and say that the band is made up of emo kids who hate God. I am a very religious person and the Lord is my life and i must say that i love this song. I loved it when i was 16 and 10 years later i still love it. Back then i wasnt a believer i was "an emo-kid who hated God" but now that i am, i think the song is beautiful. Im not going to begin to interpret what the song means to the band, but what the song means to me is that whether your a believer or not at some point we question religion. We question if God is real or if the Bible is legite and if so why is the world the way it is today along w/ the people in it. God is the only one who know's the reasons why and we can choose to accept it or not and that is what i think the song is about. In addition, its just a song...its art; just like a painting or a book or a movie-for entertainment and nothing else. It's Simple | Reviewer: Free the Mind ------ About the song Pet performed by A Perfect Circle It's simple when you think about it. It's not just specificly the Government or anything, but more about the lack of free thought that may Americans hold today. We blindly follow who we think will keep us safe. We become their "pets" and let them pull us away from the "window" and see what we could be. Yes I could see how the Government would fit perfectly into this, but it's not just them but everyone in general. When we listen to someone and not think for ourseves then we become a victim without even realizing it, a perfect tool for anothers use. a little ignorant are we | Reviewer: mike ------ About the song Thinking Of You performed by A Perfect Circle Tool fan for a long time.....come to understand the nature of Maynard's music....It's pretty ignorant to try to fit his lyrics into a box of, "he's gay, he's not gay.....He must be gay because it's about anal sex.....and how disgusting that he's writing a song about masturbating" blah blah blah....what a bunch of ignorant bullshit......grow up....get real with yourselves...if you are bothered by it, then you're probably already tortured by it..... and yes, Maynard, as of this day, has a pretty hot girlfriend.... Maynard Fan | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Gravity performed by A Perfect Circle I don't think the song is about drugs. Maynard has been very clear about his use of hallusinogenics, and his distaste for junkies and regular drug users (The pot, Aenema, Lateralus, Third Eye). If I had to hazard a guess, I would suggest this song is more to do with his mother's paralysis as also mentioned in Judith and Wings for Marie/10,000 Days. Perhaps he is expressing how he would feel and how he would need help if he were in her position. Maynard is a very complicated man, but i don't think he's really one for a heavy drug addiction like heroin. But who, knows. I could be way off. The Waterboy Theory | Reviewer: Jake ------ About the song Pet performed by A Perfect Circle To anyone too blind to see the blatant message of government suppression on the American Society, let's compare it to The Waterboy. In the movie, Bobby's momma tries her best to shelter him and keep him "ignant" of the outside world. Any idea she disagrees with gets associated with the Devil, as to scare Bobby into forgetting about them and continuing his simplistic and ignorant meanderings. Thus, keeping his we-tod-ed ass within her manipulative bounds. Much to the same effect, I can see how this song correlates with the government control of our society, via political tools such as the media and propaganda, where they prey on the gullible puppets that make up our public masses. Carefully playing on our emotions and patriotism, they can easily manipulate the majority of folk into making the "right" decisions. Democracy? No.. Hypocrisy? Absolutely.. Gaze out of the window and into the world, pausing every now and then to find color within the gray.
