Fun fact- the piano in the beginning is being played by James. Basically the Metallica’s explanation of the three songs The Unforgiven- can’t forgive parents( upbringing), society. (Good song to listen to get The Unforgiven better is Dyers Eve) The Unforgiven 2- can’t forgive you The Unforgiven 3- can’t forgive myself But the good thing about Metallica’s lyrics is as James, himself had said that they are open to people to interpret them the way they feel the strongest for themselves.
I see a lot of people reading this the way they want because they've put themselves into the song & decided it has to mean what it means to them. The reality is that it means exactly what it says. Unforgiven I: I dub the ones who damaged me, unforgiven. Unforgiven II: The most misunderstood one because people ignore half the lyrics to come to the determination he's saying SHE is the unforgiven to him. He is saying "I take this key and I bury it in you... because you're unforgiven too." THE KEY TO HIS HEART. HE BURIES IT IN HER BECAUSE SHE UNDERSTANDS. Unforgiven 3: He has screwed up the Unforgiven II relationship and is saying his greatest obstacle in all this is not that he can't forgive those who damaged him but that he can't forgive himself for damaging the one(s) who accepted him, wounds, scars, and all.
Mamma Said is one of Metallica’s most underrated songs to me but also one of the songs a lot of people bashed because it wasn’t typical Metallica. You should check it out
I’ve always viewed these 3 songs as 3 different stories about things that are unforgiving the first being time a boy grows up and doesn’t realise till he is an old man that how he could have done something better with his life if he had been more controlling but it’s to late now The second being a relationship and how you can’t control how people are The third being about how you can be so obsessed with 1 thing that you don’t see what happening around you then you blame yourself instead of fix it If you want to do a similar group of songs I’d recommend escape the face guillotine trilogy
III is my favorite. I am a big lyrics person and the lyrics of III are phenomenal in my opinion. Thanks Anna ! Was great to hear them back to back. Excellent reaction, as usual, Lee.🖤
One misconception about the other song is that it’s about how he can’t forgive her,it’s quite the opposite,she is unforgiven too meaning she understands him because they are the same “I take this key and I bury it in you,because you’re unforgiving too” Because she understands him,the key is the key to his heart
From what I know, the first one is James singing about his father walking out on the family when he was young. His mom was having trouble dealing with things. Great choice Anna
I think the unforgiven trilogy is very personel songs to James, and it deals with stuff from hes own live, and is basicly singing about himself.. im sure i heard him say this himself in some interview i heard long ago..
Instead of lyric interpretation, it is better to recall a period in which three of Unforgivens songs were composed.The first is during the peak period, the second is during the band's internal conflicts and band apathy, and the third is during the recovery period.
GREAT REACTION MY FRIEND! AS YOU KNOW EVERYONE HAS HIS OWN INTERPRETATION ABOUT THIS TRILOGY. FOR ME, AND I'M QUITE SURE ABOUT THIS, "THE UNFORGIVEN I" TALKS ABOUT JAMES (VOCALIST) PARENTS; "THE UNFORGIVEN II" TALKS ABOUT JAMES MOM AND "THE UNFORGIVEN III" TALKS ABOUT HOW HE CAN'T FORGIVE HIMSELF. I HOPE THIS WILL CLARIFY MORE YOUR THOUGHTS ABOUT THIS TRILOGY!! 🤘🏼🎶
Huh. I didn't even know there were three of these! Damn - how did I miss the third one? (BTW, I love your Mic Shinoda and Mic Shinoda II. Great choice in microphones 😁)
Epic trilogy!! This takes me back, soundtrack of my life, especially #I and #II. I had the luck to attend a show where they played #III wich is something they rarely do. As you say they are very understated in their lyrics but it definitely goes around this: #I - Forgive them #II - Forgive her #III - Forgive me. Great video man, truly enjoyed this long trip on memory lane. Cheers.
I heard 2 before 1, loved 2 more than 1, heard 3 and now I love 3 more than I love 2, but I’ve developed a love for 1 recently, but not as much as 2. Over time, 3 became less than 2. So in review, I love 2 more than 1 and 3 but I love 3 less than 2. I change my mind a lot.. it’s unforgivable (See what I did there?) 🎈😀
Nice! Can't go wrong with some classic Metallica! These tracks should be etched to a carbon disc and sent across the galaxy. Even aliens would like them.
I keep seeing people say Unforgiven II is like a country song, which makes me wonder if any of the people saying this have actually heard a country song before.

I thought I was the only one who thought that about that the lyrics of unforgiven ll . Glad to see someone seeing this
Nice to see someone else has a brain, and can think.

Surprisingly, this trip back in time was exactly what I needed tonight!

Thanks so much Kristi, glad you enjoyed it 😁
I like #1, the first unforgiven. Takes me to sentimental bittersweet memories.
One misconception about the other song is that it’s about how he can’t forgive her,it’s quite the opposite,she is unforgiven too meaning she understands him because they are the same

Need to react to The outlaw torn from either the s&m or s&m2 album! Great song! That or Bleeding Me.
Love all three. Great journey. Would love to see you react to three of their biggest thrash numbers- fight fire with fire, battery and blackened.
Cheers Andy 😁
Metallica - Bleeding me. It s about his alcohol addiction
Nice shirt man😂😂👍
Haha thanks man 😁👌
