I love how Rob dressed like he was going to a symphony, James dressed like he was going to his kid's band recital, and Kirk looks like he's meeting them both at the bar after
...and Lars like he was playing beer pong with his fratbois
no idea what Kirk tried to play at 4:17...
True Lol!!!
@@chronos88sk no
@@chronos88sk do you have idea?
The moment James and the Xylophone player fistbump is SO EPIC!!!
It's fistbump
@@kvincent0593 edited now.... I literally thought it is that just wasnt sure if that isnt when you punch somebody in the shoulder lol cheers
Oh yeah
Right on! Celebrate music in all its forms! 🤘🤘🤘🤙
He was killin it.
1:14 When you rock the xylophone so hard you got a fist bump from a metal God.
yep , but it was to his song but still.nice
Frome "THEE" Metal God.
And earlier you gotta admit it looks really fucking cool with the idiophone players beating the hell out of their instruments. :)
Yes
I bet that dude goes to every party and be like "So you know, I fist bumped with Papa Het, no biggie..."
Kirks' ability of switching guitars during the song without noticing sound-wise is incredible.
I was there at the second show. One of the most unforgettable concert experiences I’ve had, no doubt, but if I remember correctly, Kirk’s guitar went out of tune after Ktulu, thus the change.
I bet it was fixed in studio
It also may have to do with his guitar volume always being low in the mix. When it’s not a solo the main guitar that you hear is James, his guitar is always much louder.
He’s got a guy...
So the difference of the editing style has a reason..
Reminder:
August 28th the full S&M2 comes out
I will be getting the Blu Ray version of it
cant f*cking wait!
I can't belive it's on my birthday day
I’ve already got the CD and Blue ray
Is it also on youtube the ful show or not
2:22 How he said "Still alive!" with such tone and pointed to himself, like he wanted to express how the band is still there and rocking after all they've been through
I think he referred to a heart beating (look where he points on his chest)
But hey that’s a good metaphor!
Also, James completed rehab again so it may also represent that, even tho i'm not entirely sure the "timeline of the recording" fits right (i think it does, but feel free to correct me)
He's done it for about 30 years, the same way, nothing too deep about it
@@Rico_71 he went to rehab for the second time right after this concert.
Metallica's songs can apply to so many situations that's why their so freaking good!!
James going over to the xylophone-players and watching them rip that intro-madness and then giving them a fistbump might be my favourite part ever.
That xylophone player was probably pumped as fuck after that fist bump. That was epic.
I want Hetfield to fistbump me for something I did. I need that in my life, it would keep me going until I die.
That’s was awesome
That was pretty cool!!
That was awesome!
Never thought I'd see someone shred on a xylophone until now
Lmao
🤣🤣
That dude was probably the greatest thing ive seen all day
3:08 that's the coolest shit I've ever seen.
Agreed.
Doesn’t hit as hard as S&M1
Hands down the most famous bass into ever and they show the guitar players
It s Metallica, the bass died when Cliff(rip)gone...it s a cuestion of respect i asume
Ace of spades exists
Diego D that make a no sense. In what way has the bass died? It was lacking on the Justice mix. But it’s prominent on all recordings since. And even stands out in a big way on many songs, like My Friend of Misery etc. There’s also bass solos live during their concerts.
@@scipio8866 you know what i mean men, jason is great, rob is great, but Cliff was different...its only my opinion, i just like metallica
Right? Only a lot upset
Only Metallica would be this fawkin cool to constantly give their fans FREE STUFF! 🤘😎🤘
Yeah tell that to Napster lol
@@Black_Swans UMMM NAPSTER BAD!
UziBooBooDooDoo Drum Covers BEER GOOD!!!
William James Except they make money from giving us free stuff, on Napster not only do they not get paid but they don’t get to release it themselves.
William James after 20 years you people still cry about napster
Robert Trujillo performing one of the best bass solos of all times, and his first apearance on video is a 42 seconds, IMEDIATELY after finish the solo...
Not like he wrote it though.
@@Wargutz666 so?
Jason wasn't shown until 41 seconds in
its not a solo
@@zoro21345 doesn’t matter what it is. it’s more interesting than what the guitars are doing at that moment.
James watching xylophonists killing it at 0:59 and recognizing their efforts at 1:14 🤘🏾
I was looking for this comment. That moment is really awesome!
That put a smile on my face, I love James.
James is "the man" \m/
That was cool.. i wonder what James was saying at that moment.
I loved that part! James is a fucking legend! 🤘🏻
1:02
Let's take a moment to appreciate the ability of those men
Thought the same... They absolutely killed it!!
Absolutely killing it
James did ;) 1:14
They could knock out 36 men in a row
Their ability has never been in doubt.
1:00
"So what role do you play in the orchestra?"
"Oh, you know, shred xylophone."
Friggn badasses
3:09 will always give me chills
it gives me chills too, must awesome be in a concert like that, AMAZING
Oh man, always 🤘
I'm a classical musician and was never a fan of metal but when I heard this, it instantly has become a favorite! I never knew an orchestra and a metal band playing music would fit so perfectly together, considering how different these genres are. I'm glad I discovered this. :)
Metal and classical are pretty intertwined, listen to the first part of anesthesia pulling teeth
yeah metal is basically hardcore classical with each member having their own role and bringing a different sound
@@josephkony3993 I played cello decades ago and had tears in my eyes watching this concert O M G!! so awesome
You should look into symphonic metal. Blind Guardian, Rhapsody of Fire and Power Wolf would be a good primer to start with.
Not that different.
Reason why I love Kirk: 3:04 just look how he is giving subtitles for the deaf and playing guitar at the same time.
This was my friend Gary's favorite song. He played it in his stereo that was worth more then the car it was paired with. Gary was a Metallica fan thru and thru. He was brutally murdered along with his fiance in their bed after a party some time ago. Could I ask for some of these bells to toll in his memory. I miss you Gary!
Corey Watterud, I am sorry for your loss. I also had a best friend and Metallica fan that died from a brain tumor about 15 years ago. This song always reminds me of him. Rest in peace Byron.
@@mattiswhereitsatmattiswher2192 It appears we have something in common it's" sad but true". Thank you Matt take care
I love how wholesome internet is, and this is one of the thousands of proof
Peace be with you and your friend. The Metallica family will wrap its arms around you.
@@mattiswhereitsatmattiswher2192 Hes rockin in a better place! Prayers that you keep going and keep his memory alive! The memory remains!
They should show Rob during intro.
Don't be silly
Hired hands don't get that kind of attention
@@legionarulsquad6676 that was definitely true of Vinnie Vincent, Bruce Kullick and Eric Carr of Kiss in the eighties.
@@russkate88 true... Hapens to Rob know, just like it happened to Jason on Ajfa
@@legionarulsquad6676 That's not true. Rob is a partner in Metallica. Get your facts straight.
The 792 people who thumbed down are deaf and brain dead. This is an absolute MASTERPIECE.
So true !
Original was better. Michael Kamen was a genius. He wrote all this.
@@lisaderry7247 agree the first S&M was flawless!
It’s fantastic…….but the ‘99 recording is still better.
And on the contrary to other replies, I think this version is better. Even though the '99 one was one of the best on that track (imho). A little bit more epicness here than the first time
James - "Hey Lars..."
Lars - "Yeah?"
James - "See the xylophone players?"
Lars - "Yeah."
James - "Do that."
Lars - Slams Door!!!!!!!
😂😂😂😂😅
🤣😂🍻🍸 comment of th week awarded to u!!🏆
James- hey Lars ,I heard Jay hurt his
arm over @ Slipknot, why dont u go fill in 4 him!
Lars- f*ck you & f*ck that!!
There is no need for doing that....
This has to be the best and most accurate comment ever regarding Lars
@@davesdelta7836 thank you. I'm just having a little bit of fun on Lars's expense. XD
The shot at 3:35 is like the album cover of the first S&M
I was there both nights. Literally the most epic weekend of my life. I met Cliff Youngs Dad. I met some great friends who I am still in contact with today. I got the posters from both nights. I got some epic (expensive) merchandise. I recorded the whole show on my Samsung Galaxy. When I got home I made them into tracks and burned them onto CD so I could listen in my truck for the full year I waited for the official album to drop. I took my then 18 year old son with me on the trip to SF and he had the time of his life. so rad!
I can't wait for The Unforgiven III to come out, I loved it at SM2
Same, I can't wait to see James without his guitar and not knowing what to do with his hands
An incredible performance.
sude but true Lol! I didn’t notice that until, like, a month ago
I'm thinking if a fan made a mix of UFIII from S&M2, but mixed in the guitar solo from the studio version properly, we'd have a perfect version of the song.
Same!!!
Metal and orchestral, two things I never thought would mix so beautifully.
Starset does this, although there's EDM in there too. Wholeheartedly agree that metal and orchestral music suit e/o.
Lots of the same techniques that metal uses are used in classical. They’re made for each other.
Classical musicians from the past would be modern rock stars. Very similar song writing with different instruments.
You have to listen some good symphonic metal songs
Holy shit! anybody else notice Robert is using Cliff's Aria bass?
Yeah bro, it is fucking awesome
Robert is a monster on bass to boot. He nailed it.
Yes i’ve watched it. Didin’t see the whole concert, but imagine Ktulu played with the Aria
Cliff's dad would be proud
Is that actually Cliff's bass though or is it just the same model?
0:59 James and the conductor both having a moment with the xylophone players, just look at them smile, look at the xylophone players swing in sync 1:04, man that's fun. 1:13 And the fist bump at the end is so cool. Nice camera work.
Plus Kirk and rob are doing their thing
- What is it ?
- FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS
- Absolutly
Love that moment
1:09 I literally always look for Roberts warrior dance every time I watch this song in videos. just amazing
So the whole bass intro we see Kirk and James jumping around but no Robert....
hahah this is exactly what I thought.. then when Kirk's part cam in we see shots of Lars ... I mean wtf lol
i think its because they wanna show us less jumping and more "epicness" since everything is so official and stuff, them dressed up and james being serious af!
Same thing on the Howard stern show 🤔
I was thinking the same thing I mean wtf Rob is doing the intro but there are no clear shots of him
Probably cause Roberts operating an effects pedal. Can’t be bouncing around whilst basically leading the intro of the song.
Man, James sounds absolutely incredible here. It may have taken almost 30 years but his grit that was in the first 5 albums is finally returning. It was somewhat present on Hardwired but he seriously sounds the best he has been since the Black Album.
I totally agree
His voice was better in 2018, but yeah sounds great here as well
you guys don't like vocals on Load?
Ibiz I do. I think that era is definitely underrated for sure. But to me, at least, it doesn’t match the fire and fury of the mid to late 80s, especially the Justice years. That was when James was at his peak in the studio and live, in particular.
@@timjaeger6589 Metallica's best live years were in the 90's. As for studio. Both 80's and 90's. Every album has its place. Some performances from the first S and M are among Metallica's heaviest live stuff. Ever. "One", "Battery". I also love the Cunning Stunts video, during the Load Tour. "Until it Sleeps" was a beast played live, for example. If that isn't fire and fury to you... I don't know how S and M 2 is. But... to each his own.
1:02 These guys on the xylophone, I will never forget 😆
Even if I work in fast food one day, I will remember these musicians 🥰
"Playing classical music must be relaxing"
Orchestra players: 1:02
LOL I thought the same thing!! that was awesome
THAT COMMENT MADE MY DAY!!! I laughed for 2 minutes straight XDDD And now, whenever I'll hear that part, I'l think of that :))
TINGTRRRINTTINTI TTRITINTRINGTRING
i doubt anyone has ever said that tho, i don't know if you go and listen to Vivaldi - Summer or Winter, i think any musician would just go and get life insurance before playing it XD.
Lol good one
I can't wait to watch The Day that Never Comes on this concert
I can't wait to watch full concert
Same! But I think Halo will be the big star of this show.
3:09-3:11 what a great sound!
So when Lars said “same time next year” at the end of S&M he really meant twenty years later.
We waited 20 years, but hey, we finally got it
I liked the other conductor better, I think he used a wand / baton
Florencio Ontiveros he was great. Michael Kamen. Just read that he died in ‘03 from a heart attack. He’d be in his mid 70s now.
He says that at the end of every gig. He has said that at every show I’ve been to anyway.
Who cares when it was.. (you're correct), but doesn't matter. This is just as great as the one 21 years ago.
James: "Take a look to the sky just before you die, it's the last time he will..."
Symphony: Everyone looks up nervously.
Youre not funny
😘😋
@@johnbarker3308 your right...
I noticed that lol
Lmao
Face of James at 2:40. "Damn that was pretty decent"
I love how Metallica is the only band that I love that gives their fans this much free stuff! It’s so amazing
Lyrics
Make his fight on the hill in the early day
Constant chill deep inside
Shouting gun, on they run through the endless grey
On they fight, for they're right, yes, but who's to say?
For a hill, men would kill. Why? They do not know
Stiffened wounds test their pride
Men of five, still alive through the raging glow
Gone insane from the pain that they surely know
For whom the bell tolls
Time marches on
For whom the bell tolls
Take a look to the sky just before you die
It's the last time he will
Blackened roar, massive roar, fills the crumbling sky
Shattered goal fills his soul with a ruthless cry
Stranger now are his eyes to this mystery
Hears the silence so loud
Crack of dawn, all is gone except the will to be
Now they see what will be, blinded eyes to see
For whom the bell tolls
Time marches on
For whom the bell tolls
0:55 when the riff starts with this genius strings arrangement and everyone including the conductor is going nuts... Gives me chills every time
Outro: Kirk’s solo is like the lament of the soldier who has killed many, while the sounds of the orchestra represent the indifference of the battlefield...
That's some incredible insight! Well done 🤘
Watching the video again with this interpratation in mind and damn.
We fans just say how much metallica rocked, but we also agree that the orchestra was on point. And they really enjoyed making this work of art. Love for everyone involved. From the low electrician to James.
Damn...
WITHOUT ANY OF YOU THIS WOULDN'T BE POSSIBLE.
:) Thank you all.
This must be the #1 song when Metallica selects the songs for their concerts.
Yah they played it at the last Metallica and symphony thing.
Wouldn't it be Enter Sandman? Lol
Its because of Cliff. James is loyal to him.
If only Metallica still opened their concerts with Creeping Death followed by this song.
@@michaelf.bender3718 yeah, creeping death is amazing for openings
This concert is such a huge achievement given Lars’ timing. Incredible really.
I'm not a musician but even I notice it.
🤣
He was never really best at tempo
The strings at 0:55 are incredible.
R.I.P. Michael Kamen, this orchestra arrangement is pure gold!
0:59 - When Het notices the epic xylophone skills... and the ensuing fistbump! Love it!
James' voice is amazing! And I knew about the break in "it's the last time you will" but again, my heart stopped together! Fantastic!
I can't wait for the new live album
Yeah Steve me too
Robert in a suit. I've seen everything. I can die now.
those pants were the real mvp for not breaking a The Seams during the crabwalk
No, we still must to see him wearing a bolo tie in Texas style and a country hat, driving a child bike;)
Guys wearing pink t-shirts at a metal concert, now that's something i didn't expect...
nobody's talking about how Kirk started with "the mummy" then went to "purple sparkle ouija"
also Papa Het with the shimmy at 2:28 :)
I just noticed this. i imagine its because they fused the footage of both nights, and for one night the beginning looked better in terms of video, and the second night the rest of the song looked better.
James' voice in the 2nd half of this song is out of this world.
The way James draws out “For Whom the Bell Tolls” is so bad ass. Adds a nice syncopation to the chorus
We need this stuff in life again. Jesus Christ this gave me chills it also brought a tear to my eye watching people enjoy themselves
YASS!!
ALSO CAN'T WAIT FOR THE OUTLAW TORN
AND BLEEDING ME 🤘🤘🤘
@@vvsuhanov They didn't play Bleeding Me in S&M2
@@PooplexCanal the only thing that is not perfect about this concert
@@luigcorreia Well, how about no?
For starters, they could've played Fixxxer..
And I can go on about the list of the songs that should've been played :'(
PooplexCanal Fixxxer would of been great
Orchestra leader is having the time of his life!!!!! Love it!!
Omg he can't stop smiling the whole time epic
Metallica and San Francisco symphony world tour 2022, People Need You .😎💗
I hope you're seeing this in heaven, Cliff!
Metallica+ Symphony = Perfection
So thank you in advance, Metallica, for doing this in 17 more years. 'preciate ya, thanks.
Never thought metal and classical music would be combined and sound like gold. Absolute gold. This is amazing
Bang up job there by the video editor: despite going split-screen during the intro, they didn't bother to include any shots of the bassist playing the iconic bass part...
Who cares? Enjoy the music guys, it’s not like they are actors. 🤘🤘🤘
They pretty much showed everyone else BUT Rob ahah.
Nobody likes Rob ahahah, I miss Jason :(
@Harvester of Sorrow Rob is great, and is obviously an awesome guy. But to many people, specially those who were fans throughout the 90's, which were pretty much the Metallica years worldwide, when Jason left, the flame was also lost. It's not because of Robert. Even James, Lars and Kirk don't "feel" the same. Maybe Jason was more important than we all thought.
Getting the crowd to sing the chorus - that's not just creating a great live music experience. It's great therapy.
One of the greatest songs ever written. Long live the mighty Metallica.
I went to go see this at the Marq-E in Houston it was a packed theater and when they started the concert with 'The Call of Ktulu' I instinctively thought 'OK, they're gonna use this to lead in to Master of Puppets like the original S&M.' when they transitioned into Bells my eyes lit up and that whole show I was headbanging in my seat, it was a great experience and I can't wait for next week when it comes out. Long live Metallica.
3:10 The chills...
I'm trapped under ice
During the S&M albums it always looks like everyone is having a great time. Love it.
Rob is not a guest bass player. Next time show him more!
Yeah Rob Trujillo is a BRILLIANT bassist. One of his best lines was with Stephen Perkins (Janes Addiction) on the Infectious Grooves' track "Violent and Funky"
James is a paranoid egomaniac who pushed out Newsted and won't accept another bassist without them "knowing their place". I'm sure suppressing Rob's camera time was at least partially due to him. And Lars is no better.
@@RecklessFables stfu
He was in 80% of the shots including all the split-screens showcasing the whole band, wtf are you all on about?
@@FlameForgedSoul what about the most important part? "intro"
Wheres rob on intro?
Yeah, cause, you know, it was just one person filming. No edition.
Good rob sucks
@@JPX64Channel maybe the production man needs to be relieved of his duties
Yeah i agree
juriaan13 seriously dude? Let’s see you do better. People like to hate on others who are better than them... so dumb
James' vocals on this🔥
IMO this is the greatest privilege a musician can have!!! They're literally breaking the barriers between different genres here
At 1:32 it's Phil Anselmo in the background. Very cool 🤘
Nah that’s just some fan
Looks like it!
Imagine Metallica playing Pantera with Phil and Rex and the Orchestra
@@sergioruizsaiz7517 Or better, a guitarist and drummer that could do the songs justice.
Cliff Burton was a musical God. He was too good for this Earth.
Cliff is shedding a tear of happiness in heaven
The sheer joy of everyone performing here is incredible.
This is it the best of the world Metallica and a symphony
You know when I was younger, I discovered this album organically. I was in a local shop, and saw this on cassette. $6. Never looked back, and still amazing they came back and did it again. Metallica, forever.
Anyone love how loud Rob is in the mix now?
Yeah, finally ST Bass gets respect
100s of years from now this version of the song will be played, and mankind shall reborn on planet earth
Cliff: Das put a smile on my face
I’m crying now 😭
Why?
really can't wait for this....my all time favourite
Who's having more fun? The band and the orchestra, or the audience? This is so great.
It's just amazing to see how a bunch of kids from California with a dream got together in a garage, banged out some tunes, and ultimately launched themselves into music infamy. Absolutely unbelievable. Keep bashing fellas!
I love this whole song but I could listen to the first 1:17 for the rest of my life non stop!
0:56 i love when the conductor starts jumping
You know you at the top of your game when you can mix your music with classical instruments and BOOM 💥🤯 Magic 🪄✨ Queen reached this level also 👍💯
Wow, James' voice is far better than the original s&m. Way more gritty..
Yeah he had auto tune in first one
@@GuTOHGT chill out, his voice is good but not better than any of those you mentioned.
That is the old way he sang i dont care for the current way i wish he would keep doing it this way
@@oolalayoudiwnt2789 pitch correction is here as well. Just much better applied
They used autotune in the original, and some in this, but it is far less noticable.
This is feels like your going to a true portal of new worlds
That's probably the most epic performance of this song ever
Seattle 89
alejanmf22 this is right up there with Seattle imo, maybe a bit lower
@@Squall6575 Come on😂, you know you love Seattle 89😉
alejanmf22 oh absolutely! one of the greatest live performances of all times
@@Squall6575 Waiting for No Leaf Clover 😁
"take a look to the sky just before you die, it's the last time you will"
- James Hetfield
When I see this band, I think "what an incredibile ride they must have had!"
Seriously. Watching this , it feels like Hetfeild & co always have made music that could easily be fitted with an symphony orchestra. They should make a whole album with SF.
… This is some crazy/cool/jammin' stuff…
… It's heavy for some/many but watching some of the fans in the audience, young and older… And watching the orchestra (Cello, Viola or Violin Players)… Outstanding! You just have to watch it long enough… Music is music for music fans…
… I was especially enjoying/impressed seeing one of the "chicks" on the cello (I believe) shaking/bobbing her head from side to side to the music…
What an energy, brings tears to your eyes... magnificent!
3:38 ❤️⚡
This song both Metallica AND the symphony were rockin it. EVERYONE was on point!!
man... what a spectacle... mind blowing performance... cant believe what i just experienced... my hair stands on end... truly a legendary collaboration...
Age did nothing to them, they still sound amazing! so wonderful that you did this again
WoW i love to see kirk and Robert each show play face to face
