Kings Peak and their song Paradigm
Please check out In This Moment blood I think you'd enjoy it maybe a bit freaked out by it
The clips you see are from the movie Johnny got his gun (1971) Great movie, which is based on the book of the same title.
Some rasp voice maybe, Cakra Khan with Tennessee Whiskey, or Felix Irwan with When we were young, by Adele or Felix Irwan with 'With Or Without you... Thanks dear Maggie )
This was Metallica’s first music video… It was groundbreaking at the time and still holds up today as effectively conveying the unseen horrors of war.
As an added, during the intro of the song, you hear some instrumental effects replicating the song of machine gun fire, mortar explosions, and a helicopter flying by. It's soft, like a memory of a battle. During live performances, this is done much louder and to greater effect, as if you're in the middle of battlefield.
Yeees, yeeees yeeees
Not just that: this was the first ever music video for a metal song.
Ah okay. That I guess explains it. To me the video just takes away so much from the music. It's so so soooo distracting. Just please react to a lyric video. 🙏🙏
I can still remember 13 year old me watching this at my friends house for the first time on Much Music and being utterly transfixed by it. This song made me a metal fan for life.
The "movie" clips are from the film "Johnny Got his Gun" which is based off of the book. This was also Metallica's debut official video played on Mtv. I remember when this debuted it was a big deal that Metallica actually made a video...
They actually got a LOT of hate from this video because they had told fans they'd NEVER do Music Videos because that would be "selling out"! I knew quite a few people, in High School, who ended their "fandom" with Metallica because they made a music video!
@@Axe_Slinger Not where I'm from, I mean you had a handful of fans saying they sold out, but all it did was make Metallica the biggest metal band of all time
@@Axe_Slinger We were stupid back then. There was such a ridiculous backlash to Metallica becoming succesful in the 80s.
Original video was without annoying movie clips. The literally destroy this song
@@brianfriedman101 Don't think thats right.. Pretty sure the original had the movie clips, cause thats when I went to the library and checked out the book.
The cut scenes and extra audio are from the 1971 movie Johhny got His Gun which is based on the 1939 Novel of the same name.
Metallica bought the rights to this movie so they no longer had to pay royalties towards it.
Yup.
Johnny Got His Gun being a reference to the recruitment phrase “Johnny get your gun”
One of the most brutal and best books ever.
Yes... one of the movies in my list of "Great movies I would never watch again"
James is one of the most talented rythm guitarist out there.
Facts. Even the legendary Dimebag said the way Hetfield downpicks is unique.
@@yomo1690 you wouldnt think it but because of how low he has his guitar strap, that makes downpicking fast and cleanly a lot harder, i can t go that low
I see somepeople that wear it low use their pinky for palm muting, I just cant seem to do that so i have it as low as I can
Lars may put the songs together but Hatfield is the undisputed riff master...writing and playing
@@AeonAxisProductions Johnny Ramone was the king of downpicking
Guitarist’s.
You need Master of Puppets in your life. Personally, I think it's one of the best songs ever written
She should do some Symphony & Metallica. I love that album.
The Bohemian Rhapsody of Metal
@@KevinHwoarang ehhh, i think that titled belongs to Chop Suey!, Symphony of Destruction, or Enter Sandman
Powerful video. Way back, when I came home, they had not invented the term PTSD. They called it being crazy. Thanks to my kid sister for helping me out of that hole. If anyone needs help, ask for it. Love is out there.
Good reaction, good editing,
If anyone is struggling with PTSD, I highly recommend EMDR therapy. All insurance covers it, and its really effective. It's the worst shit in the world when your going through it but it makes the memories feel more like old wounds than like fresh cuts gushing blood. Not sure how else to describe it but that's what it was like for me. As a bonus, you don't even really got to talk through the shit, the therapist just guides the exercise in silence
Glad your little sister was there to help you. Cheers.
God bless your soul
Thanks for commenting. I work for the Masons, and a lot of the older guys are Vietnam vets who worked their way through PTSD with charity and the Masonic organization. They just found each other there and flourished.
One guy got shot down over Vietnam--Air Force ace, very deadly in an aircraft--and his dominant arm was so severely damaged that once he got back home, doctors said he'd never use that hand again. He said otherwise. He self-rehabilitated by learning sleight of hand card tricks, and I still can't figure out how he does it.
@@DragonTigerBoss I know people in the Masons. They do very good work that most people never hear about.
In the long ago, I used to do sleight of hand card magic. Too much arthritis now. It requires much practice and also the confidence to do it right in front of people. It is doubly a good sign that he is able to do it.
33 years later, it still gives me chills! And one of my favorite kirk solos! Such a phenomenal album too!
As others have stated, the background clips in this are from the 1971 movie 'Johnny Got His Gun'. Metallica actually bought the rights to the movie so they could use scenes without copyright issues (If I remember correctly it was in the $300,000.00 range). Considering the worldwide smash this song and mainly because of the video was and still is ... worth every penny. Great reaction as always! Keep up the good work. I also enjoyed your original song at the end, nice touch. :)
That is also the move that they got the idea for the song.
Thank you for your lovely comment. Will you be there for my 195K Subscriber Celebration Live Stream tomorrow?
@@tonywhitehead5907 duh
Maggie, please react to “Heart singing “Stairway to Heaven”, a Led Zeppelin Tribute at the Kennedy Center! You won’t regret it!
Hi, Maggie did react to Heart - Stairway to Heaven, on one of her Twitch live streams( Saturdays 3PM EDT). So there is a good chance she will also put it on RUclips. 🙂 www.twitch.tv/maggiereneemusic
This is honestly one of the top 5 songs ever made.
People dismiss it because it's metal but it has everything you could possibly want in a song.
Thank you for your comment. Did you like the Alice in Chains reaction I just posted?
If you’d like to react to more Metallica,here are some suggestions:Escape,Master of Puppets,Lux Aeterna,Moth into Flame.Thanks a lot and enjoy.
The fact you brought Milkshake into one of the most powerful moments in music history means this video needs to be deleted before it gets put into the time capsule and someday discovered by well-meaning people who use it to destroy humankind.
I understand why you would say that. However it's my reaction request and knowing Maggie as I do this is something she does regularly (rabbit holes) and her biggest fans find them hilarious which is why that bit was included here (for people like me) while the deeper meaning & the technicality of the song were well analyzed... and barely kept her out of tears from the story they were telling.
I thought it was hilarious. And scarily enough, once she pointed it out, I could hear what she heard lol. I hate to admit it, but it would make an awesome mashup.
Kinda weird but agree.. i also hear it. Same frequency or beat or something.
Maybe Bill McClintock will stumble across this video and get an idea for a future mashup.
The song at the end is a song about awaiting the return of loved ones from war. “Keep the home fires burning” basically keep home warm and loving while we await their return… It is a bit of irony at the end of the song, as they contrast the desire of people to see their loved ones back safe from the war, yet they let this man lay in his own personal hell, trapped alone in his own body.
🙏🙏Maggie I can not express how stunned I was this amazing song reaction made it to YT! It's such a special song, in so many ways. And not only did I get your truthful and beautiful reaction... you included your original at the end! Gorgeous job as always!🙏🙏
YAY! Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for being a great Patron! 😜🤘🌺
I think we need also some reactions from S&M1 🙏🏻 I would love that(Bleeding me or Outlaw Torn)
@@maggiereneemusic I've been subscribed to you for a long time, but this is my first time hearing you sing, Wow... How beautiful. I see you in a whole new light now. Which completely coincidentally reminds me... You should listen to Doug Stone's song "in a different light." It's a great song, and Doug has an amazing voice that I think you'll love.
Peace is one the few, short times in history when everyone stops to reload...
"One" gave me hope and words to what/how I felt after Desert Storm. Semper Fi!
My mother, now in her mid 70's, fell absolutely in love with this song after hearing it. I was 13 when Metallica released their album ...And Justice For All, and I was constantly jammin' it. She was never especially into music as a whole, and most of her favorite songs were from the country genre. One day, after yet another such jam, she inquired about the song that had the slow, beautiful music that got heavier and faster towards the end; I knew right away she was referring to One. So I played the song for her, letting her read the lyrics as she listened. Then I showed her the music video, as I had it recorded on VHS. She was mesmerized, and requested I dub her a copy of the song on cassette. I did so, and it was constantly being listened to (both in her car and her walkman). Several years later she told me that she wanted One to be played after she passes away while her ashes are being scattered. She still loves the song to this day and sometimes reminds me of those wishes 🤘❤
Thank you for your comment. Did you like the Alice in Chains reaction I just posted?
@@maggiereneemusic watched and commented on. Great job!
Welcome to the dark side Maggie..
This is a anti war song obviously, and a 100 percent masterpiece..
They 'metallica' own the rights to the film Johnny got his gun.
They were young when they made this, and it's hard to follow when you make something so profound.
But they have and continue to do so, over and over....
Not just one of the greatest metal bands ever..
Just one of the greatest bands full stop....
Much luv to all from England..🤘😎
Lol the fans made it an anti war song. Metallica just wanted to make a scary song.
Thank you for your comment. Hope to see you at my Metallica Premiere shortly?
@@maggiereneemusic abso bloody lutley. 😁🤟🙏
One of the first PTSD songs to reach and help give us vets a voice. Thank you for reviewing.
It's not about PTSD tho. It's about phsyical trauma, not mental.
What I wouldn't give to hear this song for the first time again.
30 years since I heard it for the first time, it still makes me cry from time to time.
Seeing Metallica perform this song live in 1989 was CRAZY. I've rarely experienced anything as intense.
Thank you for your comment. Did you like the Alice in Chains reaction I just posted?
i remember watching this video the first time it was on MTV. 20 of us gathered in the TV room of the local youth center to see it. Talk about awesome.
Technical proficiency was one of the key goals behind metal from its early days. Metallica’s guitar performances were always of legendary quality and their lyrics were commonly very deep. You should react to Fade To Black for another jaw-dropping instrumental performance and some really sobering lyrical messages.
Thank you for your comment. Did you like my new reaction video to Metallica I just posted? Hope to see you tomorrow on my livestreams?
I remember when this video debuted on "MTV's Headbangers Ball." When it was over the VJ/Host just looked at the camera and said, "Wow."
Like many others here, this was my first taste of Metallica. I was pulled into metal because of these guys, the talent blew my mind. This only reminds of great days of my childhood. Love it! The message from the video is so amazing and emotional.
Thank you for your lovely comment. 😊 Hope to see you TONIGHT at my LIVE stream?
The film clips and voice overs are from the 1971 movie, "Johnny Got His Gun," which was based on a 1939 novel of the same name. The movie was about a WWI veteran that was struck by an artillery shell, losing the ability to see/speak/hear and all limbs. The story told of his efforts to cope with his new condition and let those around him know he was still cognizant. The song is obviously a take on the book as well.
"One" got ranked as #3 for best guitar solo. And in the demo version, James Hetfield did the solo
Metal has been misunderstood by most people for a very long time - much of (quality) metal and related subgenres are actually highly critical and speak to important issues -- similar to punk before it, and in contrast to mainstream rock (which was mostly focused on love, lust, and generally emotion)
Metal is the closest modern genre to classical music.
@@movietimeateds69 - yup, uses the same scales as well (diatonic) as opposed to blues and rock, which use pentatonic
I was a teenager when this video came out. My friends and I tried to gloss over the message jamming out but they hammered the anti-war message so well with the drums and guitars that even we got it and none of us have ever forgotten it after all of these years. Another must hear/see is their Master of Puppets which is a anti-drug song based on the lead singers drug addiction as well as others. You should check out their Moscow live footage of the song. You will be amazed at the crowd shots.
1 Million free Russians rocking
Fun Fact: Metallica is still, to this day, the ONLY music act to have ever played every continent. They played a show at a research station in Antarctica to an audience of 120 scientists in 2013.
Thank you for your comment. Did you like my new reaction video to Metallica I just posted? Hope to see you tomorrow on my livestreams?
Lars Ulrich really went at it in this one. I love the bass drum sound of this album of hitting an anvil with a ham (there's an image for you). James Hetfield is a far better rhythm guitarist than he is a singer, but here he does a marvelous job. And I can't praise Kirk Hammett highly enough, he's one of the true masters of his art.
I'm a bit torn about this official video, in some parts the clips from "Johnny Got His Gun" add to the the song, in some parts it's an unneeded distraction (the song stands by itself and is just pure gold).
One of the best reviews of Metallica's "One" of all time. You actually digged into what it meant, nice work!
Thank you for your comment. Did you like my new reaction video to Metallica I just posted? Hope to see you tomorrow on my livestreams?
Check out anything from their S&M "symphony and music" album, any music lover could appreciate it.
I was at S&M 2. Life changing🤘
No disrespect, but I always thought it was a hot mess. The orchestration seemed at odds with the metal. I know folks love it but it didn't gel for me.
There's another song by Metallica called "For Whom The Bell Tolls" (based on the book by Hemingway) that details 5 soldiers who survive a battle only to be obliterated by an airstrike. While it isn't entirely as direct as One is, the song does an almost equally good job at describing the horrors of war, albeit in this instance from the point of view from the ground.
Thank you for your comment. Did you like my new reaction video to Metallica I just posted? Hope to see you tomorrow on my livestreams?
That's actually low key funny told like that without much context
In that year’s MTV Music award show-they were beat out for the first Heavy Metal award by Jethro Tull- a decent band -but They’ll never get mistaken for Heavy Metal. It was a
Huge subject of protest!!!!
That was for the first heavy metal Grammy award
Thank you for your comment. Hope to see you on my Slipknot LIVE reaction stream tonight?
The movie contained in this video is called "Johnny got his gun (1971)" and is possibly one of the most harrowing war films I have ever seen in my life...
And once again I'm gonna suggest "Carnival of Rust" by Poets of the Fall.
She put out a video reacting to that song recently
Metallica bought the rights to the movie in order to avoid any copyright complications of this video. One was the first music video released by Metallica.
@@andrewrichardson7767 Yup, they really nailed it on their first attempt. There were a lot of artistically interesting videos made in the early days of MTV, but I don’t think any of them had such a raw harshness and effectiveness in not only representing the song, but enhancing the message. It was groundbreaking at the time. Still holds up today.
Master of Puppets is a must, great interpretation from lyrics to instrumentation.
That song is about addiction (Drugs, alcohol)
@@Sir_Engel_038 "chop your breakfast on a mirror"
I usually don't listen to Metallica, but when I due it's from their lineup with Cliff due to his bass actually being audible. When Jason came along after his death as a replacement his bass was intentionally turned down to where you can't even hear it (so imo what's the point of listening you know)?
This is actually the first time I've heard this song all the way through and it's reminds me of the song Rooster by Alice In Chains (the lyrics pertain to guitarist Jerry Cantrell's father's time in 'Nam).
"It was the start of the healing process between my Dad and I from all that damage that Vietnam caused. This was all my perception of his experiences out there. The first time I ever heard him talk about it was when we made the video and he did a 45-minute interview with Mark Pellington and I was amazed he did it. He was totally cool, totally calm, accepted it all and had a good time doing it. It even brought him to the point of tears. It was beautiful. He said it was a weird experience, a sad experience and he hoped that nobody else had to go through it."
"He's heard this song. He's only seen us play once, and I played this song for him when we were in this club opening for Iggy Pop. I'll never forget it. He was standing in the back and he heard all the words and stuff. Of course, I was never in Vietnam and he won't talk about it, but when I wrote this it felt right...like these were things he might have felt or thought. And I remember when we played it he was back by the soundboard and I could see him. He was back there with his big gray Stetson and his cowboy boots - he's a total Oklahoma man - and at the end, he took his hat off and just held it in the air. And he was crying the whole time. This song means a lot to me. A lot."
"That experience in Vietnam changed him [his father] forever, and it certainly had an effect on our family, so I guess it was a defining moment in my life, too. He didn’t walk out on us. We left him. It was an environment that wasn’t good for anyone, so we took off to live with my grandmother in Washington, and that’s where I went to school. I didn’t have a lot of my father around, but I started thinking about him a lot during that period. I certainly had resentments, as any young person does in a situation where a parent isn’t around or a family is split. But on Rooster, I was trying to think about his side of it - what he might have gone through. To be honest, I didn’t really sit down intending to do any of that; it just kinda came out. But that’s the great thing about music - sometimes it can reach deeper than you ever would in a conversation with anybody. It’s more of a forum to dig deeper. It felt like a major achievement for me as a young writer. When I first played it to my father, I asked him if I’d got close to where he might have been emotionally or mentally in that situation. And he told me: ‘You got too close - you hit it on the head'. It meant a lot to him that I wrote it. It brought us closer. It was good for me in the long-run and it was good for him, too"
IDK if you've ever reacted to Rooster or not (you have A LOT of videos🤣).
Thank you for your comment. Did you like the Alice in Chains reaction I just posted?
@@maggiereneemusic Loved it, you have a really good ear for music.
This video came out in 1988 during the Time when 80’s Glam/Hair Metal bands were at their peak. Bands Like Motley Crue, Poison, Def Leppard and other Glam Metal bands. This video became one of the Biggest requested videos lon MTV.
I was a teenager when this video was first released on MTV (yep back when they played music videos) I’m 53 years old now. I was at my friend Rad’s house, yes his real first name is Rad, and we watched the release of the video. At that moment I was a massive Metallica fan. This song and FADE TO BLACK are my two favorites. I prefer ALL of the Metallica albums up to and including the black album. Not many albums after that have moved me as much as the earlier stuff. 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
@@corepuncher We watched it religiously !! He still owns his original Kuwahara. My first introduction to Lori Loughlin before her tv series.
I remember counting down the days, then hours, until the premiere on MTV. It's funny to think of it in retrospect: before "One" and all the Grammy nominations (and eventual wins--thank goodness Jethro Tull stopped putting out albums 😂), Metallica never got played on any of the commercial radio stations. Within a year of this album's release, the local rock station was doing "Mandatory Metallica" every night at 10pm, mostly playing their older tracks. I didn't care for the Black album when it first came out, but some of the tracks grew on me over the years. Load killed my interest in the band completely, and the only tunes I've heard from them since were ones that came on the radio when I was too lazy to change stations. But I still play the hell out of those first four albums.
@@Harv72b agree 100%
Me too. I'm 47, so I was 14 when this video hit MTV. I became obsessed with Metallica after that and still am to this day.
I turn 51 on Halloween so I was a teenager when this came out. I remember when the video came out. Powerful video. And yes I like the movie RAD. Even got it on DVD. Lol. Heavy/thrash metal and BMX bicycles were my life as a teenager.
I've always thought heavy metal music would translate well for opera. When you break down the music in l its parts, it can be extremely technical and tell a story. Actually check out Metallica from the S&M album. Stands for Symphony and Metallica. Full orchestra backs them up. Its very cool.
I second this!!! S&M is one of my favorites.
Nightwish very much were successful combining metal, symphonic music, and opera so you're not wrong
@@justdave9610 True. I forgot about them. Only recently discovered them.
Fleshgod Apocalypse has an opera singer on some of their tracks.
Check out nightwish doing phantom of the opera
I love the way this song does absolute justice not only to the movie Johnny Got A Gun but to the horrors of war.
I think it is very easy to make song kinda… dramatic? theatrical? This in so many ways is understated which is where it’s power lies.
It’s not glorifying war or painting the men as heroes (which I am certainly not saying they’re not) but, as they all too often are, victims
This is one of the most beautiful and powerful songs I’ve ever heard. As someone who was in a coma in 2016, it has gained even more significance, it’s gotten even more powerful and more poignant. I was only in a coma for 12 days and, though I’ve memories of the early stages, the rest was a blank. To be awake throughout the whole thing… a hell I cannot imagine
This is a hard song for many. ive seen many a Marine and enemy with broken bodies from war.
It’s the drums mimicking the sound of machine gunfire that gets me every time 🤘🏻
There are not many bands that can create a song and convey a message like this.🙏
Thank you so much! See you tonight! 😊💖
Hello from New Hampshire Beautiful young lady!! The original video was about 18 minutes long... Love your Reactions Maggie!!!
Thank you for your lovely comment. 😊 Hope to see you later today here? ruclips.net/video/UNoOvCoGscA/видео.html
Final drums patterns means "Kill me" in Morse. "One" is the first Metallica song I heard, and it still the best Metallica song for me.
It does not. That's an internet rumor started by someone who doesn't understand morse code or drum patterns. And to be frank, Lars couldn't pull that kind of shit off.
"kill me" in Morse code is -∙- ∙∙ ∙-∙∙ ∙-∙∙ --∙ It's actually a neat rhythm, but it would be way too syncopated for anything going on in that song. The drive of the marching and the artillery is what they were going for here, wouldn't you say?
@@SoiledWig Lars? Syncopation? No. 😬
While I respect Lars as a drummer and above all as a composer, I’ve always thought you needed an Enigma machine to make sense of his bass drum patterns. Sometimes they make no sense. But that being said, they always fit the song. The drums on One - and on AJFA in general - are Lars’ best work and serve the songs perfectly.
@@janitor6669 i think you must have misread my comment.
@@SoiledWig I agree with you 100%, both on the syncopation and the marching/artillery thing. I was just pointing out that while Lars' bass drum patterns are sometimes weird, there's no morse code in there. Syncopated stuff would be too challenging for Lars.
The worst wound I ever saw was a friend who died. His name is Lcpl Andy Dang. He died 1 week in country. He was hit and his entire lower jaw was blown off, most of his neck, and a large portion of his upper chest. Now, Andy was a darker skinned Marine. When I got to him his skin was ash white. He was dying and he knew it. His platoon Sergeant was a Gunny and I remember watching him pick up Andy's jaw bone from the sand, shake the dusty sand off of it and put it in an MRE sleeve. He put it on the stretcher that carried Andy off. Andy died on flight.
He was the guy who first introduced me to "Family Guy".
Thank you for your service and your comment. Did you like the new reaction video to Brad Paisley I just posted?
You said "Cheese Muffins!!" Best swear word (not a swear word) i've heard in a long time. :)
LOL! Thank you for your comment. Will you be there for the new Dimash video Premiere?
Master of puppets, Kill em all aka , One, Fade to Black, Sanatarium, Unforgiven 1 and 2, awwwww joy to my hears......
The part you refer to as being metronomic actually represents the morse code the main character was making with his head. Much like head banging.
Interesting, I always interpret it as imitating machine gun fire...
The scenes in this video are from the 1970's movie, "Johnny Got His Gun" and the associated book, originally written in 1938. James Hetfield was inspired to write this song after seeing the film.
Johnny was a soldier in World War One. He is caught in an explosion that leaves him with no arms, no legs, no face, no ears. He cannot speak, hear, or see - has no sense of time or where he is, and is fed through a tube and breathing through a respirator.
I have always interpreted the cut scenes within the song as what is happening to Johnny in the real world.
The moments of the song where Johnny is "thinking out loud" are his conscious mind, and James Hetfields voice is his subconscious mind. This was triggered - for me - by Johnny's thought, "I don't know if I'm alive and dreaming, or dead and remembering?"
From that point on, the music builds and builds, which - again, to me - signaled the growing conflict between the two sides of Johnny's mind as he dips further and further into insanity. By the time Kirk Hammett's guitar solo hits, (and hits hard), I've always pictured that as the final "battle" between Johnny's conscious and subconscious mind, with the final "S.O.S. Help me..." mantra at the conclusion signifying that Johnny's mind is the same as his body, reduced to "one" singular, autonomic thought.
Nothing else of him remains from that point forward. Johnny has gone, and only the breathing corpse remains until he would die of old age.
At the end, the crowd singing "Keep the Home Fires Burning" symbolizes how society went on and forgot about him, (and the veterans in general).
If you listen to this song from that perspective, you will be bawling by the end.
Amazing song probably the best heavy metal sound ever!!! Master of puppets and Fade to black also incorporates the word into the music progresses with the dynamics of the words!!!
Thank you for your comment. Hope to see you on my Slipknot LIVE reaction stream tonight?
i love Metallica since junior school.
thank you to reacted to Metallica🙏🙏
Thank you for your comment. Did you like the Alice in Chains reaction I just posted?
🤘🤘Metallica!! I'll be here!! 🤘🤘
Thank you for your comment. Hope to see you at my Metallica Premiere shortly?
That song in the end was a pleasant surprise.💗
One was the first song I heard from Metallica and it got me into a more aggressive style of metal. My all time favorite Metallica album is Master of Puppets.
Thank you for your comment. Did you like my new reaction video to Metallica I just posted? Hope to see you tomorrow on my livestreams?
Maggie, this is loosely based on the book that the movie "Johnny Got His Gun" was based on.
"The song is based on the idea of a soldier losing all of his limbs and jaw and being unable to hear, speak, or see, set to a World War I backdrop. In an interview in New Zealand in 1989, Ulrich describes the movie Johnny Got His Gun as having a similar theme, and this was the reason it was incorporated into the video."
OMG we got 4 cheese muffins with this one!!!! This band helped me thru my teenage years. Love love love them.
LOL! Thank you for your lovely comment. Hope to see you TONIGHT at my LIVE stream?
I sat in the cafeteria and watched this on MTV in the morning, in the afternoon I was bound for Bosnia to jump into enemy territory as recon and painters to prepare a path. It was on my mind as we jumped out of that plane.
It was my worst nightmare until I got home and my wife fell ill and died of cancer, leaving me and two children aged 1 and 2.
Somehow I managed that and we actually did great together, the three of us.
Now that the kids are grown and out the things I never had time to process or consider then is coming back to haunt me. Out of 18 under my command, only I remain.
I'll stick around though, I can't be broken.
I would recomend the song "Master of Puppets " by Metallica! Pick the studio version with lyrics!

Millions of people were already Metallica fans before "One" was made. Also, One was their very first video.
Thank you for your comment. Did you like the Alice in Chains reaction I just posted?
Excellent, I loved your reaction, and the ending was beautiful for a sad song, welcome to Metallica!! Sending much love, see you soon later!! Don't have the emoji on normal keyboard!! 🤗🤗🤘❤
😊💖
The film in question is "Johnny Got His Gun" with Jason Robards. Try "Fade to Black" next. :) By the way, "One" was Metallica's first video. They didn't want to go down the MTV path until something came along that felt right. The album this is from, "...And Justice For All", was released in 1988.

Best anti-war song ever 💔😭😭😭😭
Just getting to this ... jfc those opening notes always give goosebumps and brings the tears 💔💔😭😭😭😭
Well thats a first .... never seen someone laugh the first time they see/hear this.
😂🤣😂🤣
the last part is the chorus from a ww1 song. It is a British patriotic First World War song composed in 1914 by Ivor Novello with words by Lena Gilbert Ford.
Lyrics:
1.
They were summoned from the hillside,
They were called in from the glen,
And the country found them ready
At the stirring call for men
Let no tears add to their hardships
As the soldiers pass along,
And although your heart is breaking,
Make it sing this cheery song:
Chorus:
Keep the Home Fires Burning,
While your hearts are yearning.
Though your lads are far away
They dream of home.
There's a silver lining
Through the dark clouds shining,
Turn the dark cloud inside out
Till the boys come home.
2.
Overseas there came a pleading,
"Help a nation in distress."
And we gave our glorious laddies -
Honour bade us do no less,
For no gallant son of Freedom
To a tyrant's yoke should bend,
And a noble heart must answer
To the sacred call of "Friend."
Chorus:
Keep the Home Fires Burning,
While your hearts are yearning.
Though your lads are far away
They dream of home.
There's a silver lining
Through the dark clouds shining,
Turn the dark cloud inside out
'Til the boys come home
What a great and insightful reaction. So many do not get the meaning of the song, many don't bother to try. I remember this movie, It was a harsh look at what happened to one man in WW1. It does however speak to the sole rending torment of many who have served there nations regardless of what flag they served beneath. I my self and my daughter both served and we both where injured in combat. To all who serve with honor, no matter what nation or branch of service, Be well, and Be at Peace, Know that in the finely tally your not the one to bare the burden of war, Those who start it are, Your only burden is to those who served against you and as brothers and sisters in arms we all know we cant pick the fight only how we conduct our selves in it. Be At Peace, Bless and be well.

This song gets me in an emotional mood, especially since I've learned of the man named Hisashi Ouchi, who suffered a tremendous amount of nuclear radiation during an accident. He was kept alive for 83 days against his will, unable to move, see, anything. He just existed.
Please don't look up photos of him. They're quite gruesome.
OK, who else here wants to see Maggie react to Dragonforce - Through the Fire and Flames?
Me🖐😅
Yeah but the album version, not the music video.
@@shmick6079 why is that?
@@TraianNitu so that she hears the whole song. Video version is absolutely butchered.
I have been considering subscribing to your channel for a couple of weeks because of songs you are reacting to.....this one pushed me into doing it.....thank you
Welcome to my channel! 😊 Thank you for your comment. Hope to see you tonight on my LIVE stream?
Master of puppets is another great one from these guys good stuff
It’s been years since I saw this I’m in my mid 50’s but I remember when this came out I’ve been around a lot of vets ww2 Korea and vietnam and now Iraq and Afghanistan it changes people but to be blown up and loose all your limbs your sight the ability to speak and his only communication was Morse code by nodding his head that would be hell on earth great reaction
I'm dying to see your reaction to Pink Floyd - The Great Gig In The Sky. Probably the greatest vocal performance in the history of modern music, and not one word sung. Pure emotion communicated through the human voice.
Thank you for your comment. Did you like the new reaction video to Pink Floyd I just posted?
@@maggiereneemusic I just watched it and enjoyed it very much. I believe Pink Floyd along with the Moody Blues will become classical orchestral music in another century or so. What sets those two bands apart are their arrangements and the timeless subjects they address. Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, The Wall and Moody Blues' Days Of Future Past should be heard as complete albums to maximize the experience IMO.
😘
An interesting fact, when the drum pattern changes and Laars starts with the doubles the drum pattern is actually SOS
Even though majority of Metallica's music is fast and loud, every song is deep and thoughtful and impactful If you haven't heard it yet you should do Master of Puppet's it's legendary and that album is in the library of Congress I believe the only thrash/ metal album to be in the library of Congress
Thank you for your comment. Did you like my new reaction video to Metallica I just posted? Hope to see you tomorrow on my livestreams?
@@maggiereneemusic yes I did it was awesome you should really try their songs live from 1989 love your reactions
@@maggiereneemusic and you're welcome
Hey Maggie
The music video for the song "One" by Metallica was their first ever music video
This song was on their 4th album "And Justice For All"
Thank you for your comment. Did you like my new reaction video to Metallica I just posted? Hope to see you tomorrow on my livestreams?
Maggie please react to Alter Bridge! They are one of the greatest bands of the 21st century IMO. I'm sure you will love their singer Myles Kennedy. Please react to Alter Bridge - Words Darker Than Their Wings live at the Royal Albert hall or Watch Over You live at Billboard! Please.. 🙏❤️
She has reacted to them. Watch Over You, In Loving Memory, & the acoustic live of Watch Over You. She has a tremendous backlog of material to edit with her school & performance schedule. Hopefully they will arrive here in the future :D
@@trixiebella That's good news 😃. I can't wait to watch them. Hopefully they will be here soon. BTW, to which live performance did she react... Live at Billboard or Amsterdam version? (Amsterdam version is not much good IMO). And thank you for replying me ❤️🙏.
@@RG049 I just looked it up it was Amsterdam version.
@@trixiebella Oh 😔. I love Myles so much but he doesn't sing that good in the Amsterdam show. But he sings perfect in the billboard version. Unfortunately the billboard video has been blocked even after getting more than 7 million views. That's probably why Amsterdam performance is the more popular one. And where did you watch them? Are you a patreon supporter of her?
@@RG049 Yes I support her on Patreon, YT, and Twitch. I am also her secretary.
I've seen this video million of times and i like it just like the first time or even more, keeps growing and growing on me. It's a masterpiece.
This music video is based on Johnny got his gun the movie. It is based on a man getting his arms, legs, face blown off then the surgeons saving him. He can't walk, he can't talk he can't see but he can hear what is going on around him. So the voices are part himself part his dreams part the people around him. It begs to question when is to much injury to save and when someone wants to die when is it ethical to kill them vs making them live without them having the ability to act on their own.
Not only are the clips from the movie Johnny got his Gun. They actually bought the rights to the movie so they could the clips with having to worry about copyright issues.
A+ for resourcing the band, D for resourcing the story behind the song...
can't not cry when I hear this one. arguably the best metal song ever.
I first saw this video back in '88 on MTV when I was in 9th grade back in San Ramon at Cal High. 🙏
Wow! That was the reaction! Really going deep into it, understand the think! Got this channel by occasion, and really liked this! Keep on going! Greetings from a small country Latvia)
When you ask whether it was a movie or A TV show. It was a movie called Johnny got his gun. It was based on a book of the same title about the first world War.
I want a mug of you being shooketh!
Loved how you almost said some bad word there... "Holy... Moly"! Hahahah
This song is about a WWI wounded veteran.
Check out there concert in Moscow 1991. 1.6 million at the concert
THAT'S A SUPERB EXCELLENT MUSICAL OBSERVATION THAT KELIS MILKAHAKE TONE DOES SOUND ALONG THE LINES OF THIS SONG.
I remember watching this video when it first came out. It left me speechless
I remember 22 years ago I got the cassette...yep, it was 1999.. their album "...and Justice for all". my favourite album. and this song...)
James is the king of riffs and so underrated writers of all time
It’s from the movie Johnny Got His Gun. It’s about the tragedy of war. A landmine took his arms,legs,eyes,tongue and ears. He is trapped and just wants to die
I remember growing up listening to Metallica, and I didn't pay attention to lyrics much at the time because I was young. When this video hit, I actually paid attention to the lyrics, and then watched the movie.
I know plenty of guitar players who grew to dislike this song because everybody asked them to play it, but that shows how popular this song was at the time.
With the way most music is engineered these days solely for mass consumption, we need to hang on to the gems that evoke actual emotion.
While I haven't enjoyed Metallica's music much past the black album, this is one of the enduring songs that never fails to evoke emotions from me.
Thank you for your comment. Did you like my new reaction video to Metallica I just posted? Hope to see you tomorrow on my livestreams?
The person portrayed in the background was a soldier, when he came home from war, he had lost his ability to see, hear and move, he'd constantly scream at intervals because the things he saw during his time at war was so horrifying to him that even by modern standards it can be considered a truly severe form of ptsd, this was in an era before ptsd had become a literal diagnosis. so they forced a crippled, blind and deaf man to live the rest of his life in what can only be described as captivity because he could no longer do anything by himself
I hope that you understand that this album was produced after the darkest time of their career when Cliff Burton died in a bus accident while on tour. IMHO this is their best album because of how emotional they were.
This song is about a guy that a mortar hit and he lost his legs an arms . he slips into a coma and basically he is is in a vegetative state . This song is james telling the emotional roller-coaster of this guy coming to terms with that . So he figures out the only way to tell them he want to die is doing morse code . That comes at the climax of the song where they actually play S O S help me 10:19. Something that was absolutely brilliant . This is one of there greatest songs .
Maggie, you asked me if I enjoyed your review of this song, yes, I do. I had forgotten this video and how the dialog in it points up the music. Powerful song great video. And I have no idea where you got the Milkshake song from. ;)
The Nightwish' song "Song of myself " have got much inspiration from this song. One is one of the most eerie songs done
Thank you for your comment. Did you enjoy my new reaction to Floor Jansen I just posted? And hope to see you later today on Twitch for more FUN LIVE REACTIONS where you get to react with me LIVE? www.twitch.tv/MaggieReneeMusic
I recommend Nightwish Song of myself from Wacken next
girl, you're reacting to my mid-teen years! great reaction. this video was haunting and groundbreaking when it was released. a true moment in music history.
Thank you for your lovely comment. Will you be there for my 195K Subscriber Celebration Live Stream tomorrow?
Ive seen MetallicA live three times and they've played One every time. You can feel the soul deep down in your chest and soul and it's so powerful.
Here's one for you: Metallica had a concert with the San Francisco Philharmonic Symphony in 1999, considered the first successful melding of metal and classical music. You can find it on RUclips under "Metallica S&M" (1999) (Symphony & Metallica). It produced another hit "No Leaf Clover", a song they never performed, just wrote. If you can find the accompanying video documentary on how it came together, you'll be blown away. The conductor of the orchestra approached the band because he considered elements of their music to be in the classical music range. Not bad for guys who never studied music seriously and wrote their stuff in a garage. Look it up and let us know what you think.
