The Reviews about Passive (page 4/ 6)
------ performed by A Perfect Circle


Enfor | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/19/07

Totally agree with m. I think is about a person that instead of facing things or problems with courage chooses to be autodestructive in a passive aggressive way.



review... | Reviewer: m | 11/8/07

mmm i think this song isn't really talking literally to someone that died, but to a person that instead of facing an issue or problem, decides to "play dead" and ignore it...that's why its passive-aggressive, this person is aggressive by being passive, by avoiding a proper confrontation...so that's why he says "i know that you can hear this" like saying that this person knows for sure how are things and still decides to do nothing about and go on like nothing ever happened.
also the attitude of this person, maybe even a change in his personality which made him act this way, is what makes him "his perfect enemy" but well that's what i think...greatest song of apc for sure!



Meaning | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/6/07

I agree with Chatani but i also believe that he is trying to at least hate her, hence the 'enemy' thing since it would be easier for him to let go if he feels that there was no hope for them. That said it could also him challenging her to 'face' him and become his enemy and regain conscienceness inspite of him, he doesn't care what she thinks as long as he knows that shes alright. That was just a little ad on to Chatani.

I read some not all of the reviews and well every one has their own opinion about what they like and what they dont like. Someone did ask for the meaning or what they think the song is talking about and all ive read so far is about who wrote it etc. From this song, i get that he has just found out that the person he loves is no longer alive. The love he felt for this person was very intense that he cannot grasp the fact that she is gone. "Wake up and face me" "dont play dead" then he goes on to say cause maybe someday i will walk away and say you fucking dissapoint me. he really wants this person to come back to him but she is dead and he is telling her all these things in order to try to get her to react to him. then he gives in n says ok den dats how u want it "go ahead and play dead, you fucking dissapoint me". this is why the song is passive aggressive. saying to her that she should be alive like saying plz dont do this to me. that shows a great deal of how much he loved her. i think its an awsome song and forgive me for not expressing myself clearly and being very repetitive. but take a good listen next time you hear this song and listen to the emotion in his voice. think about what ive said if you havent before and see how everything falls together. its a great loss for someone he loved with more than his life!



Song's significance | Reviewer: Reema | 10/29/07

sounds like his trying to wake an enemy up from coma or something...what do you think about the significance of this song?? his dying while trying to resurrect someone through reverse psychology... this is what i feel!!



this song's origin | Reviewer: abe76016 | 10/26/07

This song was written by Danny Lohner, for NIN sideproject band called Tapeworm. It was originally named "Vacant" Though Tapeworm (including Lohner, Trent Reznor, Maynard and others) never actually recorded or played any of the music under that name, after they officially disbanded in 2004(i think), APC reworked Vacant and named it Passive. This info is true to the best of my knowledge. :)



I like | Reviewer: Kris | 9/9/07

OK so I am a new listener to apc but a big tool fan and i would say i like them both, as many of you have said mjk's voice is just mysitcaly soothing, amped, angrey, confused, hopless and hopefull all at the same time. I would say from what i have heard though i do like tool best because i like every song i hear from them. apc sounds alot like a band 10 years i like as well, if you havn't checked them out and you like apc then you would suggest you do.

Hi Everybody
I am from Pakistan, and I have to say that the first time I heard this song in Constantine, I went crazy for it. At the Time I did'nt know what APC was, yet I did recognize MJK's unique voice since I have been a Tool Fan all my life.I have to say MJK is the man, and Passive is definately up there on the top of my list with 'sobre' and 'parabola'. Hey Guys you should listen to Blue from APC, its a pretty cool song too. But Passive is by far will be the Best APC song ever.
