I remember with my best friends in high school 1988. Playing this album as we cruised in my 66 Chevelle. I got goosebumps back then. I still get them listening today.
Yeah I really hate it when people down the talica okay so maybe Lars is not the best drummer or whatever but I think he's great personally I don't know what the hell is going on in people's minds but you know if you don't enjoy the music then don't listen to it that's all I can say
Color is irrelevant. No it's not. Black & Metal Synergy result in a unique and innovative new style of metallic shredding and crunching. Tosin Abasi! Research him if not familiar!
@@sparkimoto You're irrelevant. Fewer black people listen to metal which makes this even more capturing. It's a beautiful, welcomed sight, like a double-rainbow!
On 2/21/19 my PS VR, Guest PS4, PS4 Slim, Xbox One X, Wii U, 12 controllers and 4 chargers, 100 game discs (Including classics such as Halo and Old CODS and other nostalgic games but I've been buying games online for the past 3 years so if I do get some stuff back I can just reinstall) Xbox 360 which I had countless memories on, boosted board and a 2001 music composer was burgled pls help
@Sam Gem I still have the centerfold poster from my Metal Edge magazine I put on my wall over 3 decades ago when I was a teen with Cliff in it. Dude was an amazing talent.
A woman that tears up to a instrumental metal song really understands metal more than most fans. There is actually a memorial stone dedicated to Cliff on the place where the tour bus crashed and he died here in Sweden.
Metallica has made everyone cry. Most will never admit it. Their music just pulls at the heart strings and tugs at the soul. Their music has saved many lives.
It`s not often that I see a young lady crying after hearing Metallica, but when you do, it means that your odessey through metal has reached its conclusion. Meatal isn`t just music - it`s a way of life. Glad you loved the song, sweetheart!
I am a 41 year old veteran metal head and I am crying like a baby watching this young girl be so moved by one of the most underated songs of all time!!!! You are so adorable! And I don’t mean that in a condescending way at all!
When Dime passed away i was destroyed... I was 14, Just got into Pantera, really enjoyed them, at the time they were my fav band, and the news hit me really bad Rip Dime, Hope One day we Will meet somewhere so i Can tell you how much your music meant to me
A lot of people question why anyone would enjoy a reaction video, but this is a shining example of what it's all about: getting to witness someone else sharing their genuine thoughts about something you love and appreciating it the same way you do, like sharing a favorite restaurant with a friend or Introducing a friend to a new pet. It warms your heart and affirms your feelings towards whatever is being shared. That's why I watch these.
Just to let you know 2:00, 3:20, 5:37, and 10:40 are mostly or entirely played on bass Cliff Burton was truly a magician and this song is truly a masterpiece. Also, I know another really emotional instrumental song called Metallica - To Live is To Die that song takes you on an emotional journey.
I must have heard Orion 1,000 times and I've never seen someone react to it like the way you did! Watching you get emotional while listening made me emotional as well!! The Metal community is one big family, hell, go to a live show sometime!! Bless you all and keep Metal alive!!! RIP Cliff Burton!!! 🤘🤘
You lot don't know what your talking about. JSBach was the absolute master of classical. They considered putting him onto the voyager message, but thought that it would be showing off, hence they used mozart instead. He predates all mentioned here, and was better than all combined. Look up toccata and fugue, that's where heavy metal started!
Awesome! I'm 53. Been listening to metal all my life... still makes me cry! So good to see young people appreciate music. Has always made me feel alive....🖤🤘🏻
chernebog07 I don't doubt that he did write a lot... often wondered without researching... but that said you have to admit "To Live is to Die" is nowhere CLOSE to having the chording/phrasing/orchestration as "Orion", so yeah. Comparatively boring.
You are such a beautiful person for doing this. I'm 47 years old, and I remember my mom getting this album for me. I still get those chills after listening to that song. It will never get old.
This is quite possibly the most beautiful reaction to a metal song. This completely blows my mind as to how beautiful we all are inside. You maam are a wonderful person. From an old white dude who's always listening to metal and funk you make me feel good for expanding my musical horizons.
I watched several of your other reaction videos and was honestly not sure what to think, but when Orion brought a black girl unfamiliar with Metallica to tears....I felt it was a very genuine reaction and a good analysis of the song. It is very moving and sadly Cliff Burton has passed RIP. You just gained a Subscriber and I am eager to hear more of your thoughts on any future songs. It was not a corny or embarrassing reaction but a genuine reaction, LOVED IT. Peace be with you and good luck with the channel.
Cliff had the classical training to complement Kirk's "melodic" playing, but also the stones to keep Lars and James in check. They've had some good stuff since those days, but back then their songwriting was on another level. R.I.P. Cliff!
When I heard this album other blacks harrassed me for listening to metal. Your reaction in the video was what I felt in 1987. Metallica is still my favorite band today. Welcome to the real side of music... this band makes music that connects to the soul.
You definitely wasn't the only one! I knew a nice bit that loved Metallica back then. Honestly, they had no choice but to be introduced to Metallica, if they wanted a ride in my car.
Back in the 90s I was a diesel mechanic. One of the black drivers I saw from time to time had broken down. When I got out of the service truck he had his feet kicked up on the dash and was jamming to Maiden!. I fixed his truck and we talked about 1/2 an hour about who we had seen and wanted to see. Metal knows no color.
@Hans That's not true, and a quite dickish response. Generally, they wanna seperate from the norm (clothes, slang, walk, etc). And if they wanna conform, that makes me happy! Still don't understand? How about you grab a history book. That history book doesn't go very far back either! And don't even mention the Barbary Slave Trade either. I'm Irish and I know my history (and it's fkd up). Everyone handles their history different.
So did Jimmi Hendrix... He made music that connects with the soul... That would've been my argument to them, if I were in your shoes at that time, lol... what are they gonna say? Fuck Hendrix too? nah they wouldn't. Rock isn't about the color of your skin... Glad people are finally realizing it... Tho it did take a long time.
So many people have misconceptions about metal music, they think its all about anger and they have no idea the heart and soul that goes into it. Nothing wrong with shedding some tears when a piece of music moves you, and if you want some more emotional Metallica listen to The Day That Never Comes live from Quebec Magnetic. Very powerful.
A better way to describe metal...good metal at least, is emotion. Sometimes that emotion is anger and aggression, yes. Ok, a lot of times it is. But then there are those times when it isn't so representative of the darker side of human feelings, but is rather something else. Something almost...I don't know, is magical too much of a word to use?
"Nothing Else Matters" would probably evoke similar emotions. Missing his girlfriend while on tour, Hetfield was talking to her on the phone and was one hand strumming the E minor chords while he talked. He later turned it into a song in which he never intended to be released as he had written it for himself. Lars (drummer) heard it and convinced Hetfield to release it on their next album. One of their "milder" songs but very powerful.
Just to be pedantic, not E minor chord, just the open strings. I imagine he had his left hand holding the phone while idly plucking the open strings with his right, hence creating the opening of Nothing else matters.
The open strings that he was strumming (E, B and G) are the notes in an E minor chord, in other words an E minor arpeggio. So he's not wrong in saying Hetfield was strumming an E minor chord, it's just that it was arpeggiated.
I was going from memory of what I read when I researched the song. Sounds like you two play guitar. I always wanted to learn but I could never get around to it. I have great respect for those who do play.
No one makes songs like this anymore. Period. Nothing corny about someone being deep enough to be moved by a song with no words. Music does that, it's a blessing. Life would be a cold desolate place without music.
This comment will get lost among so many others but still wanted to thank you for bringing me back to the day I first entered to that record store I put the headphones on and selected the big red and yellow label that read: Listen to the latest from Metallica! I was so moved by the sheer beauty of Orion and your reaction brought me back to that day. So just that. Thank you.
I have never heard someone say that the guitars are actually singing and filling the role of the vocals. That is such a spot-on and insightful interpretation which definitely fits this song especially the middle section. Nice job.
Young Lady I have been listening to that band since 1983. You see they were the soundtrack to my teen years and beyond. To see you boldly "jump in the fire" with no expectations and react the way you did was amazing. Thanx for your honesty in being a fan. Keep it heavy. Dave Medina San Antonio, Texas
You totally “get it”. Thank you for being so open minded and appreciative of great music. This truly is music for the soul. I get lost in Metallica’s music.
The Cliff Burton bass solo at 5:30 and subsequent bars DEFINES the feelings of “perseverance through sorrow”. My absolute favorite Metallica song and it’s wonderful to see such a legit reaction to a wonderful song. Great vid!
GOD YES MORE PINK!!! Yes you pronounced Orion perfectly. I will always love the intro . It is such a joy to see you reacting to metallica And YOU ARE DEFINITELY PART OF THE METAL COMMUNITY not only for the videos you post but for the passion , emotion and dedication you have shown. Your expression says it all which is the same in terms of how we feel about this music and how it touches you as well as it touches us . I /we love you! SHINE ON QUEEN SHINE ON FOR YOU ARE GREATNESS :)
As some have mentioned, Cliff Burton, the band's bass player wrote this song. I don't know how good you are at picking out bass from guitar, but right after the part where you got choked up Cliff's basslines start going a little crazy and he starts playing very melodic riffs that sometimes break into the same octive range that the guitar is playing. So, it tends to get covered up by and mixes in with the guitar work. I recommend checking out this video with an isolated bass line. This fellow does a pretty good job. At 5:38, the guitar and bass interweave in a harmony before splitting back off for some more solo licks. I feel like this really shows the genius that was Cliff. ruclips.net/video/xm6p8g83BvM/видео.html *This breaks me up 33 years after the first time I heard it, because Cliff was one of the reasons I learned to play bass, and hearing this makes me feel connected with his spirit. I know you feel that, by your reaction. Much love, and rock on!
The worst is when they didn’t listen to anything and just assume it is just noise because many people say that like (????) it doesn’t even makes sense! And then I show them some good metal and they are like oh it’s not that bad.. -.-‘
Liz # - You should check out La Villa Strangiato by Rush. It was a big influence on Metallica writing tunes like this. The emotion, the dynamics, it's just a hell of a ride.
Anyone that thinks your metal journey is "over" has never found more than tears and beauty in Orion. Everything is there. EVERYTHING. Nice awakening. Appropriate.
Orion is the name of a constellation that symbols a man with a bow and arrow which means hunter. In eastern culture the astrologs call it "jabbar" and orion got it's name from there. It means TYRANT or oppressor. And if you listen deeply you will find out that it shows the story between the OPPRESSOR and the OPPRESSED. and the ending part is just the endless battle in between.
RIP Cliff. "Call of the Ktulu" was magic to the ears. I had no friends as a pre-teen other than my guitar., I spent weeks learning that "Ktulu" in my room , I would literally sleep to Ride The Lightning lol. Keep up the great work with an open mind to music :)
+Joseph Miller I think what stuck in my head is not only the moments I spent learning to try and master it, the sound and feel of the masterpiece, but the emotion put into it. I will always think Megadeth a bigger challenge that would piss me off with hand cramps :P The greatest is when I actually *DID* learn the song , years later upon meeting my daughter's Mom. They were a music friendly group. Her younger brother loved guitar. We used to play around on that 6 stringed acoustic love. I slowly taught him to play "Call of the Ktulu". He finally got it . He was the little brother that I never had. He died of cancer a few years ago, taken from this globe WAY too young and too soon leaving a little one behind :( This song means much to me not only because I was that long haired dude that had no girlfriend sitting in my room jamming out pretending I was a rockstar in front of the other kids that would make fun of me , but being able to share that art to a fellow metal head that I saw a lot of me in.
It was a kick ass finger torture :) I was happy to spread that love of music to my fellow metal head jr. May he jam out with Cliff and his favorite - Dimebag. He still needed to learn the late and great Randy .... another day on some other planet.
Cliff was a god, and the true Hart and soul of Metallica. It was a sad day when he died. I remember being in Jr high, when they came out with this gem, and I was hooked. Old school Metallica was the best.
Yeah I was in junior high school at that time too. The school I attended was called East middle School in Downey California. The same junior high that James Hetfield himself attended back in the day. 🤘
Earbuds do not do Rock justice. I am 55 and was Rockin before Metalica even formed... Good earphones or proper Speakers on bare floors... Then crank the sound up LOUD
Yep. I'm your same "vintage" - big speakers with big 15" JBLs that move your intestines, and a massive tube amp with tons of headroom. Nobody does this any more. I've head the expensive headphones (and have some) - it's not the same when your spine doesn't vibrate.
Absolutely correct! GET SOME REAL HEAD PHONES PEOPLE. Check out Gradeo headphones for un 100 bucks. Simply put, one of the most accurate headphone on the market.
Fuck yourself you waste of skin! Cliff was a master of his craft. Deny master level talent snuffed out too early all you want, you'll still be wrong, troll all you want you still an asshat!
Vikings Studio Productions I got to see him in L'amours in Brooklyn my friends and I were on to hard rock the after the show we hunted down metallic albums \m/
darren collings why do you have to be an asshole? The only bitch here is you. You and people like you hide behind the keyboards and act like you’re billy badass or something trolling through the comments. The guy made a comment then you attack by calling him an asshole. Good grief. No need for it
Your female sensitivity helps bring up a whole lot of the meaning embedded in this song. As a man, it's great to see a woman be moved as to reveal us beauty. cheers, i love your channel!
I was 15 when Kill em all was released. When Ride the Lightning came out, Call of Ktulu really grabbed me, then Master came out and I heard Orion, I was grabbed again. Early Metallica changed everything for me. Keep going with your open mind, it's very refreshing.
This is why we love METALLICA,not because of long hair or being mean and tuff it's because their music evokes emotion and that they are some of the greatest musicians to ever play together\m/
RIP Cliff. Metallica to me was never the same after he died. He was the heart of the band, it's soul, and I think Jane's really needed him. Another great done in the same vein you could try is The Call of Cthulhu from Ride the lightening. The band was playing with the same / similar ideas in that song, and their previous guitarist before Kirk was insane.
I don't get why this song makes women cry, lol, but it always seems to do so. The most emotional part of it for me is listening to Cliff's masterwork and knowing he's not with us anymore.
Maybe I'm an emotionless asshole, but I can appreciate great music. However, I don't see any reason why this particular arrangement would cause crying. But hey, that's just me. Opinion's right? Aren't they great? This IS a "reaction" channel by the way, and the more enthusiastic, emotional and over the top a reaction appears, the more views you will receive. That is the point of these channels correct? This reaction in particular, especially in the end was bit "over the top" to be quite honest.
@@commonsense5188 hey some people are just more in touch with their emotions than others, maybe that's you found it over the top because you aren't as in touch with your emotions as some people. But that's what makes us all different and I acknowledge that. Not gonna lie after I seen her tear up right after the breakdown and the guitar solo and cliffs bass solo right after, it made me tear up too. Maybe it was because seeing other people sad kind of makes me feel emotional too.
Girl your listening to the songs that have changed my life! Orion is my favorite song ever! People that just now are hearing these songs just blow me away on there reactions! Because I've been listening to Metallica for almost 35 years now! Now you know how I felt listening to the best music work in the world that can grab you put you in another deminsion and all you have to do is listen to these songs! they are beautiful and soul strikeing!! love it!!
BEAUTIFUL!!!! That's the power of METALLICA!!! Not just a band. Metallica saved my life... The songs always told what I was feeling in my teenages times.
Orion is a really incredible piece, but you 100% need to listen to "To Live Is To Die". It was Cliff Burton's last intro into Metallica instrumental and it's an absolutely beautiful, moving, and emotional piece of music.
Metal is for everyone. As a community and sub-culture, we've always had an 'open door' policy. We're all here for the same reason. And there's no shame in crying at a beautiful song. Sometimes the music moves you. Let it.
I cried a long with you Pink, and I've heard this track probably thousands of times at this point. The emotion is too hard to deny here. Metal can be some of the most beautiful music ever, when done right. You said it right when you called it a masterpiece, which it is. Metallica were already great, but what made them OUTSTANDING at the time, was the influence of Cliff Burton, his bass and his writing (RIP Cliff). The guy was a pure genius and was a big reason Metallica stood out so much. Not taking anything away from the other members but Cliff was incredible. Listen to 3:21 and 10:40 of this video again, as well as that long intro with the droning sound behind the drums. That was ALL bass, and I didn't know that at first when I became a fan back in my early teens. I figured it was some effect on Kirk's guitar. Amazing, and you can hear the classical influence too, it's not just bluesy stuff. There's no lyrics, as it's instrumental, yet you can feel an entire story through the music, and visualize it. That's when you know music is speaking to you. Find the video of Orion on youtube, where someone added clips/pics to go along with the song. There's cool moving images of space for example, which fits with the song being called Orion. Still to this day I think Orion is one of the most beautiful things any Metal band has created. The middle section of Master of Puppets the song, gets me as well. That slow part. It makes me think of life, death, Cliff Burton, and it instantly makes me tear up. We lost a true legend at the young age of 24 :(. Thank YOU for all your videos, and this reaction Pink, it was perfect \m/
Someone needs to make a video of Metallica reacting to this. They would love to see how much Cliff is fondly remembered (as if they didn't already know). This is one of the best examples I've seen of how someone's legacy can live on in song.
I just watched your video. Your reaction made me tearful too. I love metal. I grew up with it. I love the people, the atmosphere, the collective state of mind that shines from it. Lots of love from somewhere near London..x
Couldn't agree more. I love the way her facial expressions mirror what I felt the first time I heard this phenomenal track. And I love the simple way she reviews it without any pretension, simply a heartfelt celebration of fantastic music. Peace and love, y'all! xx
I love it when kids and young adults discover the music that I grew up listening to and actually like it. I love it even more that you didn't just listen to this. You "heard" it.
I've never seen anyone react to Metallica like this before. We are living in a better world when its Metal that makes you feel this way and not Celine Dion!
This is Cliff’s masterpiece. He arranged all the melodies. Great and honest reaction. I really love how you are so genuine. Please do To Live Is to Die. It has the last contributions of Cliff. It has a lot more emotions.
Wow, I was your age when i first Heard it way back when it came out and i Want to thank you for helping me Relive That Moment through you. I Felt your Emotion! By The Way Cliff Burton Was the Sickest Bass Player To Walk the Planet. RIP Cliff
Every time someone asks me my favorite song of all time, they are shocked when I tell them it's Orion from Metallica..... No better form of music and metal than my guys, love em.
I was skeptical watching this video because I hate reaction videos. But seeing your reaction is the purest thing I have ever witnessed. Now you know how I felt when I heard this song and maybe one day it inspires you to play music yourself like it did for me thirteen years ago
World's BEST instrumental. Period. Unbelievably great song on a phenomenal album, by an AMAZING band. These guys are geniuses, genii... whatev', with their instruments. They are talking through them. Yes, there is a story being told in this song. Orion is the mighty hunter in greek mythology and this song depicts the aggression and bloodrush of the paleolithic hunter, then the almost serene interlude when he arrives back to the tribe with his spoils, maybe a bit of sexy time, maybe a bit of drama within the tribe, then back out the next day to face the hunt again. A never ending struggle. Part of all of our pre-history. With this song, Metallica proves that they understand, music tells a story that mere words just can't say. BTW, Cliff Burton's incredible bass intro in "Damage Inc" is sonic perfection. I could drift for the rest of eternity with that bass intro on loop.
I love your reactions in certain point because it reminds me when I was a kid and I heard for the first time that song. Now I'm 38 years old and listen more Black Metal and stuff like that but the earlys metallica's albums turned me into a metalhead and allowed me give the first steps in metal. Regards from Chile - South America.
Dearest PinkMetalHead, you are such a doll. I'm a middle-aged white guy in my 40s who grew up on Led Zep and Pink Floyd and consider those bands the ones that made me fall in love with music. I've watched you respond to them and now one of, if not the best, metal instrumentals of all time. Every time I see you react I want to just give you the biggest hug and a big kiss on the cheek (very respectfully of course ;-) ) You're so damned beautiful and real. And.... a nurse to boot (a true carer). Rock on beautiful girl and always keep it real. Love.
Oh yes my queen, one of Metallica's greats, this song doesn't need words to convey message and emotion. I grew up with this music and the whole Master of Puppets really helped me through so much. To see you react to it like that actually makes me quite happy, you wonderful person you. Metal is not all about anger, it speaks to the soul. Love ya Pink and will always watch for more of your vids.
I listen this music about 35 years and I still love this state of art... this music give me the peace and strong for tomorrow. This still clean my soul. I respect so much your emotions. Beautiful! A big hug from Portugal! Cheers!
Everyone subbed to your channel loves you and adore your honest and emotional reactions to this music. It's such a wonderful experience to be able to share these songs with other people and it's amazing that even though we don't live on the same continent or background that we can all still bond over these music because it touches everyone in a unique way
You have now experienced the most emotional instrumental ever . I cried watching you react. This song is beautifully heartwrenching. Cliff Burton was a god! Thank you for such an honest and touching reaction.
Ayrton Senna Fan rip cliff, hey but also rip ayrton senna... I know this isn't an f1 topic, but imagine what he could have done if Imola wasn't the last time we'd get to see him alive. Lewis mentions him whenever possible though... Ok, im done.. Woo metallica. Great reaction video. I felt the same first time I heard this. When people not in the know hear the name metallica they tend to think loud, cacophony, nothing but noise, but alot of metallica songs are composed like symphonies. They're brilliant. You should also try out Tool. You won't be disappointed I promise...
I first heard this tune when I was 16. The goosebumps I got then are still there. Metallica is my band. I'm 50 now. They will always be mine.
Glen Downs Me too man , I’m 52 today and
52...saw them in a small theater with 200 people in 1983 and for my 4th time with my son in 2017
I remember with my best friends in high school 1988. Playing this album as we cruised in my 66 Chevelle. I got goosebumps back then. I still get them listening today.
@@shaneward756 me to I just turned 47 ** I was in 3rd grade ears ringing for 2 days .small place to The Ritz Corpus Christi Tx.
Me also. 34 years later it’s still awesome
somebody crying to a metal song without words just show how powerful Metallica are.
"Master of Puppets" was released in 1986...and its still touching people's souls 33 years later. Welcome to Metallica fandom, young lady.
Lo que más me toca el corazón es que fue la última creación de Cliff Burton
The last great LP they put out was in '86. Just saying Holmes. Ride The Lightning, Master Of Puppets & Kill'em All. Done.
It always will.
master of puppets is considered by many to be the best metal album of all time
Yeah I really hate it when people down the talica okay so maybe Lars is not the best drummer or whatever but I think he's great personally I don't know what the hell is going on in people's minds but you know if you don't enjoy the music then don't listen to it that's all I can say
A black girl crying to the synergy of Metallica is about as beautiful as it can get... LOVE
Forget the color, somebody being so moved by the instrumental perfection of this masterpiece...that is beautiful.
Beauty and good vibes have no color.. In fact rock n roll comes from blues..
@@patriziovolpes7237 Untrue. Good vibes are more of a milky magenta.
Color is irrelevant. No it's not. Black & Metal Synergy result in a unique and innovative new style of metallic shredding and crunching. Tosin Abasi! Research him if not familiar!
@@sparkimoto You're irrelevant. Fewer black people listen to metal which makes this even more capturing. It's a beautiful, welcomed sight, like a double-rainbow!
Yesterday was Cliff Burton's birthday, who wrote that song..
Happy Birthday Cliff!! RIP
That's why I always cry when I hear this song... Cliff \m/
He died young because the Gods of Metal needed a bass player. He was too beautiful for this world.
Metallica was so much better before cliffs unfortunate passing
On 2/21/19 my PS VR, Guest PS4, PS4 Slim, Xbox One X, Wii U, 12 controllers and 4 chargers, 100 game discs (Including classics such as Halo and Old CODS and other nostalgic games but I've been buying games online for the past 3 years so if I do get some stuff back I can just reinstall) Xbox 360 which I had countless memories on, boosted board and a 2001 music composer was burgled pls help
@Sam Gem I still have the centerfold poster from my Metal Edge magazine I put on my wall over 3 decades ago when I was a teen with Cliff in it. Dude was an amazing talent.
In Orion, the guitar doesn’t only do vocals, it cries.
Also the bass. Cliff was a bigger part of this particular song on the album.
seriously that’s what i hear, especially in the first time they played it live in 2006, amazing
Orion and Damage, inc. I love the beginning soo much
Amen
Yes!
A woman that tears up to a instrumental metal song really understands metal more than most fans.
There is actually a memorial stone dedicated to Cliff on the place where the tour bus crashed and he died here in Sweden.
Thank you
I never knew he died in Sweden, I'd love to make it there one day and pay my respects!
Metallica has made everyone cry. Most will never admit it. Their music just pulls at the heart strings and tugs at the soul. Their music has saved many lives.
Cried Just like a baby the very first time i listened to Orion...Don’t ask me why, Still have no clue to this Day 🤔
Because James Hetfield pulled us all into the battle for his life, that we all could relate to.
Still crying..
@@muriellealamelama1310 Hey, me too. And your comment just made me cry again. Love you, from Leicester, England
I can admit I cry sometimes to "Fade To Black" "Orion" just blows my mind ! Each and every time !
It`s not often that I see a young lady crying after hearing Metallica, but when you do, it means that your odessey through metal has reached its conclusion. Meatal isn`t just music - it`s a way of life. Glad you loved the song, sweetheart!
Indeed brother...I'm 55 now, I remember when I was like 12, people asked me " How can you listen to that?" Well, I grows in your soul, that's why!!
I am a 41 year old veteran metal head and I am crying like a baby watching this young girl be so moved by one of the most underated songs of all time!!!! You are so adorable! And I don’t mean that in a condescending way at all!
You cried after listening Orion by Metallica..
The Sweetest and The Most Harmless Girl Ever.
Love her
We all cried after losing Cliff this was his song 😓🎸🤘🏻😥
Love her
A deep hole in my soul, I lost Cliff at age 12, lost Dime at age 29 and lost Jeff Hanneman at age 38. Damn I miss them.
Don't forget Chuck Schuldiner.
Chris Oliva Savatage
And Lemmy at 50, i'm talking about me. I miss you Lemmy
When Dime passed away i was destroyed... I was 14, Just got into Pantera, really enjoyed them, at the time they were my fav band, and the news hit me really bad Rip Dime, Hope One day we Will meet somewhere so i Can tell you how much your music meant to me
well theres a reason you still know their names. the memory remains
Orion is one of the best orchestrated songs ever created. A good choice. There are many tho.
A lot of people question why anyone would enjoy a reaction video, but this is a shining example of what it's all about: getting to witness someone else sharing their genuine thoughts about something you love and appreciating it the same way you do, like sharing a favorite restaurant with a friend or Introducing a friend to a new pet. It warms your heart and affirms your feelings towards whatever is being shared. That's why I watch these.
Just to let you know
2:00, 3:20, 5:37, and 10:40 are mostly or entirely played on bass
Cliff Burton was truly a magician and this song is truly a masterpiece.
Also, I know another really emotional instrumental song called
Metallica - To Live is To Die
that song takes you on an emotional journey.
John TF2 i was going to comment this lol
To live is to die is even more emotional when you know the lyrics were written by cliff. One of the last things he wrote.
Lol
The beast of bass
I wonder if Cliff ever met Steve Harris
I must have heard Orion 1,000 times and I've never seen someone react to it like the way you did! Watching you get emotional while listening made me emotional as well!! The Metal community is one big family, hell, go to a live show sometime!! Bless you all and keep Metal alive!!!
RIP Cliff Burton!!!
🤘🤘
that's only because we were all too f*cked up at the venues to notice my brother.......outlaw torn!!!!!
Orion is Heavy Metal Mozart!
Scott Boyer Cliff Burton was Metallica!
Mozart was chintzy hair metal, metallica is beethoven
Can't say I disagree with that.
Festering In The Crypt better... vivaldi
You lot don't know what your talking about. JSBach was the absolute master of classical. They considered putting him onto the voyager message, but thought that it would be showing off, hence they used mozart instead. He predates all mentioned here, and was better than all combined. Look up toccata and fugue, that's where heavy metal started!
Awesome! I'm 53. Been listening to metal all my life... still makes me cry! So good to see young people appreciate music. Has always made me feel alive....🖤🤘🏻
lol nobody cares how old you are.
Bret Zagar nobody cares about your poser ass PERIOD.
Bro I dont think Bret was insulting the guy, just sayin no discrimination by age, metal for all.
Metal is where I go when I get depressed never fails to make you feel better
This is exactly what music is supposed to do...make you feel.
Might want to check out Joe Satriani and Steve Vai...some nice instrumentals there as well. Frank Zappa had some really nice work too.
Damn u brought me back 25yrs! This was my bread and butter as a kid! Made me super emotional too😥
I sincerely love how emotional you get when you hear beautiful music. You listen with your heart and not just your ears.
RIP Cliff....Metallica's best composition. Flawless song.
✌❤
Savage Dawg Cliff wrote a lot of "To live is to die" before he passed. So, that "boring" song is mostly his, too.
chernebog07 I don't doubt that he did write a lot... often wondered without researching... but that said you have to admit "To Live is to Die" is nowhere CLOSE to having the chording/phrasing/orchestration as "Orion", so yeah. Comparatively boring.
Instrumentally, Call of Ktulu for me, Cliff just wails on the bass love it, with lyrics though that's a tougher choice but i'd go with Welcome home
Savage Dawg "To Live Is To Die" is boring ?????????? get a life man :D:D:D:D your comments are boring......
You are such a beautiful person for doing this. I'm 47 years old, and I remember my mom getting this album for me. I still get those chills after listening to that song. It will never get old.
This is quite possibly the most beautiful reaction to a metal song. This completely blows my mind as to how beautiful we all are inside. You maam are a wonderful person. From an old white dude who's always listening to metal and funk you make me feel good for expanding my musical horizons.
YA, i often put holes in the wall....
Agreed
I watched several of your other reaction videos and was honestly not sure what to think, but when Orion brought a black girl unfamiliar with Metallica to tears....I felt it was a very genuine reaction and a good analysis of the song. It is very moving and sadly Cliff Burton has passed RIP. You just gained a Subscriber and I am eager to hear more of your thoughts on any future songs. It was not a corny or embarrassing reaction but a genuine reaction, LOVED IT. Peace be with you and good luck with the channel.
GREATEST BAND EVER !!!!!
Before cliff burton died (The bass player)he was really into the classical composers.
32 years later I still get goosebumps when this comes on
unbrokensoul35 me too!
The slower part was what my wife and I used for our wedding march.
We did too! Started song from the beginning and started marching when the guitar first kicks in! Was awesome!!
@@jasont5405@Rich Ware I’m imagining how that would look really f ing cool good on you two
Very cool!
That's so badass, hope I can find a girl that appreciates metal like you did, nicely done
you get it. rip cliff.
She gets it...at all the right moments....
Cliff had the classical training to complement Kirk's "melodic" playing, but also the stones to keep Lars and James in check. They've had some good stuff since those days, but back then their songwriting was on another level. R.I.P. Cliff!
Jenni Anchors yes she does. Thank you.
Cliff was Metallica's lifeblood
When I heard this album other blacks harrassed me for listening to metal. Your reaction in the video was what I felt in 1987. Metallica is still my favorite band today. Welcome to the real side of music... this band makes music that connects to the soul.
You definitely wasn't the only one! I knew a nice bit that loved Metallica back then.
Honestly, they had no choice but to be introduced to Metallica, if they wanted a ride in my car.
Back in the 90s I was a diesel mechanic. One of the black drivers I saw from time to time had broken down. When I got out of the service truck he had his feet kicked up on the dash and was jamming to Maiden!. I fixed his truck and we talked about 1/2 an hour about who we had seen and wanted to see. Metal knows no color.
@Hans
That's not true, and a quite dickish response.
Generally, they wanna seperate from the norm (clothes, slang, walk, etc). And if they wanna conform, that makes me happy!
Still don't understand? How about you grab a history book. That history book doesn't go very far back either!
And don't even mention the Barbary Slave Trade either. I'm Irish and I know my history (and it's fkd up). Everyone handles their history different.
So did Jimmi Hendrix... He made music that connects with the soul...
That would've been my argument to them, if I were in your shoes at that time, lol... what are they gonna say? Fuck Hendrix too? nah they wouldn't. Rock isn't about the color of your skin... Glad people are finally realizing it... Tho it did take a long time.
Rap is real too now😉
So many people have misconceptions about metal music, they think its all about anger and they have no idea the heart and soul that goes into it. Nothing wrong with shedding some tears when a piece of music moves you, and if you want some more emotional Metallica listen to The Day That Never Comes live from Quebec Magnetic. Very powerful.
Not only that, but the skill that goes into it.
As long as it's played with a Metal Pick it's metal in my opinion lol
Well said Eric. Metal is beauty, not just some stupid genre about devil worship or music for angry confused teenagers. Orion is life!
A better way to describe metal...good metal at least, is emotion. Sometimes that emotion is anger and aggression, yes. Ok, a lot of times it is. But then there are those times when it isn't so representative of the darker side of human feelings, but is rather something else. Something almost...I don't know, is magical too much of a word to use?
The fact that Cliff passed away few months after release of this album makes it more heartbreaking .
didn't know that, so sad...
And the way he died was tragic. Crushed by a tour bus after it hitting a patch of black ice while they were on tour in Europe.
"Nothing Else Matters" would probably evoke similar emotions. Missing his girlfriend while on tour, Hetfield was talking to her on the phone and was one hand strumming the E minor chords while he talked. He later turned it into a song in which he never intended to be released as he had written it for himself. Lars (drummer) heard it and convinced Hetfield to release it on their next album. One of their "milder" songs but very powerful.
Just to be pedantic, not E minor chord, just the open strings. I imagine he had his left hand holding the phone while idly plucking the open strings with his right, hence creating the opening of Nothing else matters.
The open strings that he was strumming (E, B and G) are the notes in an E minor chord, in other words an E minor arpeggio. So he's not wrong in saying Hetfield was strumming an E minor chord, it's just that it was arpeggiated.
I was going from memory of what I read when I researched the song. Sounds like you two play guitar. I always wanted to learn but I could never get around to it. I have great respect for those who do play.
No one makes songs like this anymore. Period. Nothing corny about someone being deep enough to be moved by a song with no words. Music does that, it's a blessing. Life would be a cold desolate place without music.
Not true. There's one or two. You just have to know where to look.
Every time I listen to this instrumental, it takes me to another dimension...and then I descend on to reality
Faith in humanity..restored.
Szegedi Krisztian This is the faith itself... restoration must be found somewhere else ;)
amen!
This comment will get lost among so many others but still wanted to thank you for bringing me back to the day I first entered to that record store I put the headphones on and selected the big red and yellow label that read: Listen to the latest from Metallica! I was so moved by the sheer beauty of Orion and your reaction brought me back to that day. So just that. Thank you.
The bass solo in this song actually blows my mind so hard. this song is just pure passion.
I have never heard someone say that the guitars are actually singing and filling the role of the vocals. That is such a spot-on and insightful interpretation which definitely fits this song especially the middle section. Nice job.
You won't believe how spot on your comment is. I felt the same and noted that on the top of my OC book.
I always felt the guitars were more like a violin duet...
Agree, I've always felt like that as well and to hear other people mirror these sentiments and get it in the same way is really cool.
Metal community accepts everyone. Subbed.
Britt Compagni yes sir...
DooM Guy 83 yup. People always think we are evil assholes. Never seen a dude fall in the pit and not get picked back up by everyone close.
we don't have emotions besides hatred though.
So true.
Listen to unforgiven trilogy.
This song is one of the main reasons I started playing bass.
form52 this song is giving me the will to begin. But I already play guitar so I don’t know
Young Lady I have been listening to that band since 1983. You see they were the soundtrack to my teen years and beyond. To see you boldly "jump in the fire" with no expectations and react the way you did was amazing. Thanx for your honesty in being a fan.
Keep it heavy.
Dave Medina
San Antonio, Texas
same bro...1983 is when I was introduced
You totally “get it”. Thank you for being so open minded and appreciative of great music. This truly is music for the soul. I get lost in Metallica’s music.
The Cliff Burton bass solo at 5:30 and subsequent bars DEFINES the feelings of “perseverance through sorrow”. My absolute favorite Metallica song and it’s wonderful to see such a legit reaction to a wonderful song. Great vid!
GOD YES MORE PINK!!! Yes you pronounced Orion perfectly. I will always love the intro . It is such a joy to see you reacting to metallica And YOU ARE DEFINITELY PART OF THE METAL COMMUNITY not only for the videos you post but for the passion , emotion and dedication you have shown. Your expression says it all which is the same in terms of how we feel about this music and how it touches you as well as it touches us . I /we love you! SHINE ON QUEEN SHINE ON FOR YOU ARE GREATNESS :)
As some have mentioned, Cliff Burton, the band's bass player wrote this song. I don't know how good you are at picking out bass from guitar, but right after the part where you got choked up Cliff's basslines start going a little crazy and he starts playing very melodic riffs that sometimes break into the same octive range that the guitar is playing. So, it tends to get covered up by and mixes in with the guitar work.
I recommend checking out this video with an isolated bass line. This fellow does a pretty good job. At 5:38, the guitar and bass interweave in a harmony before splitting back off for some more solo licks. I feel like this really shows the genius that was Cliff.
ruclips.net/video/xm6p8g83BvM/видео.html
*This breaks me up 33 years after the first time I heard it, because Cliff was one of the reasons I learned to play bass, and hearing this makes me feel connected with his spirit. I know you feel that, by your reaction.
Much love, and rock on!
exactly why I bawl like a baby everytime I hear this song
Cliff got me inspired me to play and guitar parts
It just make me sad so many people thinks metal is just noise without even listening to it because they saw some report on the TV
Melpheos1er F#%^ Tipper Gore
The worst is when they didn’t listen to anything and just assume it is just noise because many people say that like (????) it doesn’t even makes sense! And then I show them some good metal and they are like oh it’s not that bad.. -.-‘
Being ignorant is easy. Some people prefer having an uneducated opinion rather than some knowledge. It's their loss
Ehh .. .I'm sure they don't hate metal because the TV told them ...
Orion is one of The Best instrumentals EVER🤘🤘the time changes are sick!...love the new intro🖤
try the call of ktulu and to live is to die
Orion sounds like... I don't know, it sounds more like classical music to me. And Cliff Burton was practically Bach or Mozart of our time. RIP, Cliff.
xiljadu klonova yes To Live Is To Die is another very moving piece
Here it is, To Live Is To Die with Jason Newsted (Live Seattle '89): ruclips.net/video/5Ez3xKH52jY/видео.html
Best possible quality, amazing sound!
Liz # - You should check out La Villa Strangiato by Rush.
It was a big influence on Metallica writing tunes like this.
The emotion, the dynamics, it's just a hell of a ride.
you like metal you're in the fam no hate, no racism, it's about the music. PERIOD,
And that’s a fact.
Anyone that thinks your metal journey is "over" has never found more than tears and beauty in Orion. Everything is there. EVERYTHING. Nice awakening. Appropriate.
Orion is the name of a constellation that symbols a man with a bow and arrow which means hunter. In eastern culture the astrologs call it "jabbar" and orion got it's name from there. It means TYRANT or oppressor. And if you listen deeply you will find out that it shows the story between the OPPRESSOR and the OPPRESSED. and the ending part is just the endless battle in between.
RIP Cliff. "Call of the Ktulu" was magic to the ears. I had no friends as a pre-teen other than my guitar., I spent weeks learning that "Ktulu" in my room , I would literally sleep to Ride The Lightning lol. Keep up the great work with an open mind to music :)
+Joseph Miller I think what stuck in my head is not only the moments I spent learning to try and master it, the sound and feel of the masterpiece, but the emotion put into it. I will always think Megadeth a bigger challenge that would piss me off with hand cramps :P
The greatest is when I actually *DID* learn the song , years later upon meeting my daughter's Mom. They were a music friendly group. Her younger brother loved guitar. We used to play around on that 6 stringed acoustic love. I slowly taught him to play "Call of the Ktulu".
He finally got it . He was the little brother that I never had.
He died of cancer a few years ago, taken from this globe WAY too young and too soon leaving a little one behind :(
This song means much to me not only because I was that long haired dude that had no girlfriend sitting in my room jamming out pretending I was a rockstar in front of the other kids that would make fun of me , but being able to share that art to a fellow metal head that I saw a lot of me in.
It was a kick ass finger torture :) I was happy to spread that love of music to my fellow metal head jr. May he jam out with Cliff and his favorite - Dimebag. He still needed to learn the late and great Randy .... another day on some other planet.
I slept to rtl every night in elementary
Master of Puppets is the best metal album of all time, not even debatable.
Ride the Lightning is pretty close IMO, but yeah ... awesome sauce
Nah bro, ride the lightning and justice for all!
best Thrash metal...best metal album is Master of Reality-Black Sabbath
One of Metallica's best if not best album. I didn't like their later stuff.
Too commercialized but damn if this wasn't just so special.
Fatty McGee I think Its debatable alright
"The guitar is the only doing the vocals"
I think i'm going to subscribe to her that phrase is just something magic and touched me so hard ;-;
I'm truly envious that you are listening this for first time!
Huh!? I'm jealous too
Cliff was a god, and the true Hart and soul of Metallica. It was a sad day when he died.
I remember being in Jr high, when they came out with this gem, and I was hooked. Old school Metallica was the best.
Yeah I was in junior high school at that time too. The school I attended was called East middle School in Downey California. The same junior high that James Hetfield himself attended back in the day. 🤘
Rock on girl!! Happy your enjoying the metal journey!!
Earbuds do not do Rock justice.
I am 55 and was Rockin before Metalica even formed... Good earphones or proper Speakers on bare floors... Then crank the sound up LOUD
s glendinning
Stop buying them dollar store earbuds and get the Bose wireless earbuds.
@@wilkyahzee2335 Because these headphones are made to last
Yep. I'm your same "vintage" - big speakers with big 15" JBLs that move your intestines, and a massive tube amp with tons of headroom. Nobody does this any more. I've head the expensive headphones (and have some) - it's not the same when your spine doesn't vibrate.
Absolutely correct! GET SOME REAL HEAD PHONES PEOPLE. Check out Gradeo headphones for un 100 bucks. Simply put, one of the most accurate headphone on the market.
You sir, are my hero!!
R.I.P CLIFF ....
LOVE YOUR REACTION I M 33 AND STILL CRY WHEN I HERE THIS YOU MADE ME CRY
Right!? Orion just strikes the soul...the boys in Metallica killed it with this one. R.I.P. Cliff 💝
Just means your a bitch
Fuck yourself you waste of skin! Cliff was a master of his craft. Deny master level talent snuffed out too early all you want, you'll still be wrong, troll all you want you still an asshat!
Vikings Studio Productions I got to see him in L'amours in Brooklyn my friends and I were on to hard rock the after the show we hunted down metallic albums \m/
darren collings why do you have to be an asshole? The only bitch here is you. You and people like you hide behind the keyboards and act like you’re billy badass or something trolling through the comments.
The guy made a comment then you attack by calling him an asshole. Good grief. No need for it
Cliff was, and will always be the greatest bass player of all time...
Tonni Rasmussen Damn right
I still have Geddy Lee above him, but he's number 2 for me.
Don't disrespect Rob. Even Kirk said he was as good
SiLenT366 Rob is good, no doubt... But Cliff is still better 😆
SiLenT366 No one here is disrespecting him. What are you on about?
Your female sensitivity helps bring up a whole lot of the meaning embedded in this song. As a man, it's great to see a woman be moved as to reveal us beauty. cheers, i love your channel!
Gender fascist!
@@jongbong1912 damn
*triggers lesbian feminist dwarves*
I was 15 when Kill em all was released. When Ride the Lightning came out, Call of Ktulu really grabbed me, then Master came out and I heard Orion, I was grabbed again. Early Metallica changed everything for me. Keep going with your open mind, it's very refreshing.
This is why we love METALLICA,not because of long hair or being mean and tuff it's because their music evokes emotion and that they are some of the greatest musicians to ever play together\m/
Dearest PinkMetalHead welcome to the GREATEST BASSIST EVER he was taken away from us too early no one has been able to copy him RIP CLIFF
Bill Weihrich Amen brother,something died in Metallica when Cliff died,they never were the same band.
Word.. RIP Cliff
RIP Cliff. Metallica to me was never the same after he died. He was the heart of the band, it's soul, and I think Jane's really needed him.
Another great done in the same vein you could try is The Call of Cthulhu from Ride the lightening. The band was playing with the same / similar ideas in that song, and their previous guitarist before Kirk was insane.
@@marmitedan1234
🎸 before was Dave Mustang
I wouldn't call him THE greatest but he's up there with the greats. R.I.P Cliff. The heart of Metallica.
There's a reason why Metallica is the #1 selling metal band of all time...
Erik Stone because they sold out :D
I can't hate. If I were making Metallica money, I'd sell out too! They're laughing all the way to the bank.
Sorry but Metallica was so good fame and fortune found them, they didn't sell out
Erik Stone lol what a clown
Lowell Kelley they don’t even make thrash anymore lol
Orion is incredible! My favourite instrumental of all time.
I don't know. To me it competes with Call of Chtulu! To this day I can't decide which is better 💓
I don't get why this song makes women cry, lol, but it always seems to do so. The most emotional part of it for me is listening to Cliff's masterwork and knowing he's not with us anymore.
Maybe I'm an emotionless asshole, but I can appreciate great music. However, I don't see any reason why this particular arrangement would cause crying. But hey, that's just me. Opinion's right? Aren't they great? This IS a "reaction" channel by the way, and the more enthusiastic, emotional and over the top a reaction appears, the more views you will receive. That is the point of these channels correct? This reaction in particular, especially in the end was bit "over the top" to be quite honest.
Roadstar1602 you said it brother.... we still realy miss you cliff
It's more tears of awe and joy than sadness
Common Sense I'm apathetic most of the times and even I can admit this is tear inducing at times
@@commonsense5188 hey some people are just more in touch with their emotions than others, maybe that's you found it over the top because you aren't as in touch with your emotions as some people. But that's what makes us all different and I acknowledge that.
Not gonna lie after I seen her tear up right after the breakdown and the guitar solo and cliffs bass solo right after, it made me tear up too. Maybe it was because seeing other people sad kind of makes me feel emotional too.
Girl your listening to the songs that have changed my life! Orion is my favorite song ever! People that just now are hearing these songs just blow me away on there reactions! Because I've been listening to Metallica for almost 35 years now! Now you know how I felt listening to the best music work in the world that can grab you put you in another deminsion and all you have to do is listen to these songs! they are beautiful and soul strikeing!! love it!!
BEAUTIFUL!!!! That's the power of METALLICA!!! Not just a band. Metallica saved my life... The songs always told what I was feeling in my teenages times.
Orion is a really incredible piece, but you 100% need to listen to "To Live Is To Die". It was Cliff Burton's last intro into Metallica instrumental and it's an absolutely beautiful, moving, and emotional piece of music.
I play live is to die all times one of my fav as well she should here that one ✌✌🎶🎶🎶🎶
It is really good, but imo, orion is the best instrumental. Sometimes i wonder how musicians of old would react to it. With headphones of course.
@Noktum Whatever Absolutely.
It was also the last song he has his name on.... So Sad Miss you Cliff.
Metal is for everyone. As a community and sub-culture, we've always had an 'open door' policy. We're all here for the same reason.
And there's no shame in crying at a beautiful song. Sometimes the music moves you. Let it.
I cried a long with you Pink, and I've heard this track probably thousands of times at this point. The emotion is too hard to deny here. Metal can be some of the most beautiful music ever, when done right. You said it right when you called it a masterpiece, which it is. Metallica were already great, but what made them OUTSTANDING at the time, was the influence of Cliff Burton, his bass and his writing (RIP Cliff). The guy was a pure genius and was a big reason Metallica stood out so much. Not taking anything away from the other members but Cliff was incredible. Listen to 3:21 and 10:40 of this video again, as well as that long intro with the droning sound behind the drums. That was ALL bass, and I didn't know that at first when I became a fan back in my early teens. I figured it was some effect on Kirk's guitar. Amazing, and you can hear the classical influence too, it's not just bluesy stuff.
There's no lyrics, as it's instrumental, yet you can feel an entire story through the music, and visualize it. That's when you know music is speaking to you. Find the video of Orion on youtube, where someone added clips/pics to go along with the song. There's cool moving images of space for example, which fits with the song being called Orion. Still to this day I think Orion is one of the most beautiful things any Metal band has created. The middle section of Master of Puppets the song, gets me as well. That slow part. It makes me think of life, death, Cliff Burton, and it instantly makes me tear up. We lost a true legend at the young age of 24 :(. Thank YOU for all your videos, and this reaction Pink, it was perfect \m/
Lee Brennan me too
Someone needs to make a video of Metallica reacting to this. They would love to see how much Cliff is fondly remembered (as if they didn't already know). This is one of the best examples I've seen of how someone's legacy can live on in song.
I just watched your video. Your reaction made me tearful too. I love metal. I grew up with it. I love the people, the atmosphere, the collective state of mind that shines from it. Lots of love from somewhere near London..x
That's the appropriate time to get teared up, right when Cliff's bass solo starts. Subbed.
Couldn't agree more. I love the way her facial expressions mirror what I felt the first time I heard this phenomenal track. And I love the simple way she reviews it without any pretension, simply a heartfelt celebration of fantastic music. Peace and love, y'all! xx
Hahaha I loved that intro! This song is incredible from start to finish! Beautiful reaction! 🤘🏾👽❤️
Thanks Nate🤘🏽🤗
Wow... Nate is here...
(... btw, she's beautiful isn't she?)
Hey Nate!🤘🏾
Great to see you here Nate! 2 great reactioners on the same comment section!!!
Nate Alyn it’s nate! Do not lose your hat
I love it when kids and young adults discover the music that I grew up listening to and actually like it. I love it even more that you didn't just listen to this. You "heard" it.
Became it
Isn't it beautiful? It still gives me goosebumps and I'm 35 yrs old. I've listened to this practically all of my life.
Congrats
I've never seen anyone react to Metallica like this before. We are living in a better world when its Metal that makes you feel this way and not Celine Dion!
This is Cliff’s masterpiece. He arranged all the melodies. Great and honest reaction. I really love how you are so genuine.
Please do To Live Is to Die. It has the last contributions of Cliff. It has a lot more emotions.
Oh shut up already, they're all Metallica songs!
No the stole some melodies and riffs
ruclips.net/video/EosetsjmvCA/видео.html
See I think call of kthulu is his masterpiece it doesn't have the bass solo but the chord structure is so much more interesting
Brody Darnell I thought Call of Ktulu was written by Dave?
Jake Avalos he may have had a hand in it
Wow, I was your age when i first Heard it way back when it came out and i Want to thank you for helping me Relive That Moment through you. I Felt your Emotion! By The Way Cliff Burton Was the Sickest Bass Player To Walk the Planet. RIP Cliff
Like a mach 5 missile straight to the feels.
I think I was outside at night, probably drunk looking at the moon. Mind blown. The Walkman was my constant companion..
in my opinion this song is one of the greatest in the entire history of music.
Concur. Spring, TX.
Your tears started the moment Cliff played one of his most heartfelt solos. R.I.P.
Rip Cliff! Great reaction, beautiful song. So much emotion put into it. Thank you so much for being so authentic, and genuine. ❤️
This masterpiece was Cliff Burton's creation...
Every time someone asks me my favorite song of all time, they are shocked when I tell them it's Orion from Metallica..... No better form of music and metal than my guys, love em.
I was skeptical watching this video because I hate reaction videos. But seeing your reaction is the purest thing I have ever witnessed. Now you know how I felt when I heard this song and maybe one day it inspires you to play music yourself like it did for me thirteen years ago
World's BEST instrumental. Period.
Unbelievably great song on a phenomenal album, by an AMAZING band. These guys are geniuses, genii... whatev', with their instruments. They are talking through them. Yes, there is a story being told in this song. Orion is the mighty hunter in greek mythology and this song depicts the aggression and bloodrush of the paleolithic hunter, then the almost serene interlude when he arrives back to the tribe with his spoils, maybe a bit of sexy time, maybe a bit of drama within the tribe, then back out the next day to face the hunt again. A never ending struggle. Part of all of our pre-history.
With this song, Metallica proves that they understand, music tells a story that mere words just can't say.
BTW, Cliff Burton's incredible bass intro in "Damage Inc" is sonic perfection. I could drift for the rest of eternity with that bass intro on loop.
Paul Walsh Nah, it's really really good but imo doesn't have a chance against the Dream Theater stuff (Stream of consciousness, Dance of Eternity).
I love your reactions in certain point because it reminds me when I was a kid and I heard for the first time that song. Now I'm 38 years old and listen more Black Metal and stuff like that but the earlys metallica's albums turned me into a metalhead and allowed me give the first steps in metal. Regards from Chile - South America.
Dearest PinkMetalHead, you are such a doll. I'm a middle-aged white guy in my 40s who grew up on Led Zep and Pink Floyd and consider those bands the ones that made me fall in love with music. I've watched you respond to them and now one of, if not the best, metal instrumentals of all time. Every time I see you react I want to just give you the biggest hug and a big kiss on the cheek (very respectfully of course ;-) ) You're so damned beautiful and real. And.... a nurse to boot (a true carer). Rock on beautiful girl and always keep it real. Love.
When metal gives goosebumps thats when you know it's in your blood.
i remember listening to this song in the rain on my portable cd player being transported to another world by the sound.
Oh yes my queen, one of Metallica's greats, this song doesn't need words to convey message and emotion. I grew up with this music and the whole Master of Puppets really helped me through so much. To see you react to it like that actually makes me quite happy, you wonderful person you. Metal is not all about anger, it speaks to the soul. Love ya Pink and will always watch for more of your vids.
I listen this music about 35 years and I still love this state of art... this music give me the peace and strong for tomorrow. This still clean my soul.
I respect so much your emotions. Beautiful!
A big hug from Portugal!
Cheers!
Orion is a heavy metal masterpiece
Send A Raven music masterpiece
You should listen to their instrumental "To live is to die"
MrSFblack YES! I second that. \m/
Oh hell yeah. It was a tribute to Cliff, and you can hear the raw emotion in the track.
Definitely
The Call Of Ktulu - Warsaw Guitar Orchestra AwAwAwsome
P.S: My nick says everythink
MrSFblack I agree. It's even more tear inducing specially when you know the backstory to it
R.I.P. Cliff. This song sounds to me like the chaotic sound between birth, life and death. Subbed.
Jey Qualls the best interpretation of this song.
RIP Cliff
I like to say:
Hi Cliff
Everyone subbed to your channel loves you and adore your honest and emotional reactions to this music. It's such a wonderful experience to be able to share these songs with other people and it's amazing that even though we don't live on the same continent or background that we can all still bond over these music because it touches everyone in a unique way
You're beautiful when you cry, its called being human
You have now experienced the most emotional instrumental ever . I cried watching you react. This song is beautifully heartwrenching. Cliff Burton was a god! Thank you for such an honest and touching reaction.
Got the same reaction listening to Orion 25 years ago
Ayrton Senna Fan I was in a car ride trying to fall asleep when I heard this song and I got to tell ya this song knocked me out
Yeah buddy! I still get chills.
Ayrton Senna Fan rip cliff, hey but also rip ayrton senna... I know this isn't an f1 topic, but imagine what he could have done if Imola wasn't the last time we'd get to see him alive. Lewis mentions him whenever possible though... Ok, im done.. Woo metallica. Great reaction video. I felt the same first time I heard this. When people not in the know hear the name metallica they tend to think loud, cacophony, nothing but noise, but alot of metallica songs are composed like symphonies. They're brilliant. You should also try out Tool. You won't be disappointed I promise...
TheWell SpokenMan So true my friend ... so true
I remember hammering this song out and the album on my tapes with my walkman - haha. Always rewinding it back - the days of no CDs !!!!
