    This song has a strong message, it talks about a son who loses his mother early and needs to mature early, and that son is James Hetfield, something he needed to overcome and move on in life, a lot of Metallica fans call this album crap , unfortunately, there are few people who see much beyond music, Mama Said is a work of art that few musicians, even rock musicians, are able to produce such art and express the strong message it has, Metallica is more than a band from Heavy and Thrash Metal, it's the band of life!🙏🔥❤

    So, I forgot about this Metallica song until I came across it while I was viewing other videos. I was bawling by the time it was over. I raised one son as a single mother and it was hard. He moved out at 16 and it's been a struggle the last 3 plus years to repair our relationship. I searched and searched for a song to dedicate to him that had some significance to our relationship for his 18th birthday. This one was sitting under my nose and it's from my favorite band too! Thank you again Metallica for another great one. Tristin, if you ever read this, know that I love you and tried my best. In my ❤ always, Mom

You pour your heart and soul out on an intimate and personal song from a more experimental album and all your fans do is call it shit because it doesn’t sound like Master of Puppets anymore.
    Load/Reload get better with age. I start to relate more and more with the songs and their decision to move away from thrash as I get older. I’m glad to see others feel the same as time goes on

      «Сынок, твоя жизнь как открытая книга -
      Не закрывай её раньше времени».
      «Самое яркое пламя сгорает быстрее всего», -
      Вот что я слышал от нее.
      Сердце сына в долгу перед матерью,
      Но я должен найти свой путь.
      Отпусти мое сердце,
      Позволь своему сыну вырасти.

      Но передник вокруг моей шеи
      Все еще на мне.
      Я слышал, что покидать дом в раннем возрасте
      Неправильно.
      Я никогда не просил прощения,
      Но что сделано, то сделано.

      Которую я с собой в могилу несу.
      Я никогда не просил у тебя,
      Но никогда и не давал.
      Но ты оставила мне свою пустоту,
      Которую я с собой в могилу несу,
      Так успокой это сердце.
      Мама, я возвращаюсь домой,
      Я не совсем тот, каким ты хотела видеть меня.
      Но любовь матери к своему сыну,
      Несомненно, помогала мне всегда.
      Я недостаточно ценил твою любовь,
      И все, что ты мне говорила.
      Я нуждаюсь в твоих объятиях,
      Но холодный камень - все, что я вижу.
      Отпусти мое сердце,
      Позволь своему сыну вырасти.
      Мама, отпусти мое сердце,
      Или успокой его.
      Отпусти мое сердце,

      Juicy Strong Metal is older than country music. Country comes from very early Metal music. A lot of music comes from Celtic folk music as we know it. But I agree most country music today is just Queers singing about shit they don’t have a clue about, like woman and cars.

    Mama she has taught me well
    Told me when I was young
    "Son your life's an open book
    Don't close it 'fore its done"
    The brightest flame burns quickest
    That's what I heard her say
    A son's heart's owed to mother
    But I must find my way
    Let my heart go
    Let your son grow
    Mama, let my heart go
    Or let this heart be still
    Yeah, still
    Rebel, my new last name
    Wild blood in my veins
    Apron strings around my neck
    The mark that still remains
    Left home at an early age
    Of what I heard was wrong
    I never asked forgiveness
    But what is said is done
    Let my heart go
    Let your son grow
    Mama, let my heart go
    Or let this heart be still
    Never I ask of you
    But never I gave
    But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
    Never I ask of you
    But never I gave
    But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave
    So let this heart be still
    Mama, now I'm coming home
    I'm not all you wished of me
    A mother's love for her son
    Unspoken, and maybe
    Yeah, I took your love for granted
    And all the things you said to me
    I need your arms to welcome me
    But, a cold stone's all I see
    Let my heart go
    Let your son grow
    Mama, let my heart go
    Or let this heart be still
    Let my heart go
    Mama, let my heart go
    You never let my heart go
    So let this heart be still
    Never I ask of you
    But never I gave
    But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave

Love is the bond that keeps you together. I lost my father at 17 years, and my mom recently. You can ask your mom for help or for signs. If you want to know what she's feeling or thinking though unless you meditate, you'd need to contact a psychic Medium. Usually you can find them at a metaphysical bookstore or even online. There are some awesome ones. Blessings.

      Purists bash the Load/ReLoad period as a departure. So what? Metallica were artists who felt like doing something a little different for a while, to branch out from their roots while also applying what they'd done before.
      Take this single, for example: James felt like writing a country song, to channel his deep emotions about his mother and her death. And so he wrote one of the best damn country songs ever.

      Human race will never advance? It has advanced in the past. There's evidence of that everywhere. Human race has advanced and keeps advancing.
      However what would keep human race from advancing is fear of change and the hatred of change that always accompanies fear. Nothing progresses without change.
      The hatred of change is an evil thing. Evil and illogical. Why hate on Metallica for changing? Sure, they're different now but different doesn't equal bad. Metallica's Load/Re-Load period was great. Ofc not everyone likes this kind of music but to diss and artist just because it's not for your taste is simply childish and ignorant.

      That's not a fact though. You can't take famous persons quotes as facts. For all we know WW4 will never happen. For all we know it will be fought with the same technology we currently have. Maybe with lasers or with technology we cannot even imagine right now. 100 years ago nobody could have imagined internet. You couldn't even explain it to them.
      The reason he said that was because nuclear warfare fantasy was a hot topic at the time. U.S.A had just nuked Japan. It only seemed like nuclear warfare is the next step in warmonger.
      Einstein was not a god. He was not all knowing and just like every other person his thoughts and opinions were affected by current events. He said it to make a point but if we look past that then his opinion on WW3 and WW4 are dated and irrelevant.

Anyways, that was my first Metallica experience and I'm proud to say I've seen them 3 times and even flown to San Francisco from AZ to see them since. My all time favorite band and "Load" is the first album I heard from them. Good music is good music.

    I can't even sing along to this without the sadness wavering in my voice. I miss my mom, lung cancer from smoking those damn Marlboro red soft packs took her from us. Love your mother while she's still around. You usually only get one. Don't take her love for granted. You never know how much time you have. You're gonna miss them hugs and that love she had for you. Losing her hurts worse than any physical pain I've ever felt. Rips your heart right out of your chest and leaves a big hole you can't fill with anything. Only time helps heal that shit, but it never fully heals. That pain stays with you.

    I relate too damn much to this song. I'm adopted and in 2008 I held my birth mom's hand as she passed away from cancer. Then march this year my adopted mom passed away from cancer as well. I wasn't extremely young when I lost my birth mom (I was 26 at that time, I'm 41 now) but I still feel this song and having grown up with both load and reload during high school it's a song that has stuck with me for years and I hadn't listened to it in a very long time until tonight. I can't believe I went through a disgusted with Metallica phase (due to reload and load being so different at that time, then their deal with Napster lol oh God if we only knew the future of songs/mp3s back then.) Well after relistening to these songs off load and reload, I appreciate it so much more now than I did when I was younger, and truth be told I think I secretly liked it and I would always go back to it while I listened to my nofx bad religion offspring mxpx misfits descendants black flag sick of it all (i.e. punk or hardcore cds). Thank you Metallica for creating some of the best songs out there in the history of metal/rock. You will never be cancelled no matter how hard new listeners cry and don't do enough research.

    Its a damn shame this song never has made its way into a live set of Metallica's. If you know anything about James's life you'll really understand the feelings behind this song. The whole argument this isnt metallica is garbage. I think its wicked that Metallica stepped outside the norm and didnt care what people thought of it. They did their own thing and thats cool. Ive come to appreciate their later work just as much as Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets etc etc. Don't hate it because its different.

And I have a respect that they did their own thing without caring what everyone else expected or wanted. Rock on!
