Top Two Tool Songs

I will be recommending two TOOL songs to a friend over the next 24 hours to try and get them hooked. Which ones should I choose and why?

I'd say Sober, but I am just a worthless liar

I remember where I was the first time I heard this song on the radio and my life was changed forever.

Forty six & 2 and Schism or The Pot for the mainstream hits. Id replace one with The Patient if your friend is willing to branch out but I don’t really think this is how folks usually get into music. Tool isn’t for everyone I suppose

Don't forget to recommend the top Forty Six Tool songs first.

Cold and Ugly, and Forty Six & 2

Thanks for all of the suggestions everyone! Since this person is fond of a lot of 80s (rock) and 90s music (grunge & alternative), I suggested Forty Six & 2 and Ænema. If they enjoy, I'll probably suggest Lateralus (my personal favorite), Fear Innoculum, and Invincible next given the person's age and how I think they may resonate with them.

I would think it would depend on what type of music your friend listens to; if it were one of my friends I would recommend The Grudge and Parabola, but my friends tend to listen to heavy, aggressive music.

Ænema - it's the song that got them popular. Some people love the lyrics about LA being destroyed.

Then something from a later album.

Or shake things up and do a Perfect Circle song. Maybe Judith.
