Based on a book titled "Johnny Got His Gun" story about a WWI soldier who was wounded in the war and lost his limbs, sight, hearing, and speech. So he was trapped in his mind- he was One. yes, very dark
"One" of my favorite songs by them. I'm new to your channel and I think you're doin a Great job ! Your reaction to Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon was dead on 😎
The speaking voice, background voice is the soldier( on the bed, face covered) trying to make sense of what has happened to him. Well he can't speak, he can't hear, he can't walk, he can't eat/ drink, he can't move, he has none of these anymore. So he's trying to figure out how to tell them he is alive and coherent, not just a lifeless body, he has brain activity. In the beginning it said they doubt he'd have any form of pain or brain activity, but he does. So he used the Morse Code, which most back then knew. To tell them I am thinking and have feeling. The kindest person was the Nurse trying to end his suffering, but his dad stopped her. So now he just has to wait till he dies naturally, via starvation. Back in the 1950s no-one understood medical stuff that well, let alone the brain. It was still common to have a Lebotomy(stitch in forehead) for difficult people( hole drilled into scalp and brain, add electrical stimulation to subdue the person, which caused alot of brain damage, which then made them 10times worse). Shows how far medicine has come in the 70years since.
The man laying in the hospital bed also had his face torn up so they put a mask on him so nobody could see the damage. It is like a tent so its not laying against his face or what is left of it. Great reaction!!!!
I love seeing you expanding your musical library. I also love being turned on to music I’ve never experienced. Recently I discovered the band TYPE O NEGATIVE. Great Gothic heavy metal band. Do you know Nina Simone?
You should watch it again with lyrics and according to the information on the movie:”The mask represents both the extent of Joe's physical trauma and the desire of the military and medical establishments to hide the truth of what happens to soldiers like Joe.”
Metallica wanted it to be dark. James Hetfield was obsessed with the book and film, so he wrote the song. They then bought the rights to the movie so they could use it for the video. The movie is a tough watch, but a poinant anti-war piece.
If you want a more contemporary but also VERY freaky Metallica song to check out, watch the video for a song called "All Nightmare Long". It's off th' chain, and nobody has really been reacting to it!
You did a good job of understanding the song and music video without having the lyrics in front of you. Do you ever look at the lyrics during a reaction video?

Also a movie set in WW1 and scenes from that movie that Metallica bought the rights to for this video.

"but his dad stopped her" NO, it was the Nurse's administrator that stopped her.

You need more 80s Metallica
Whom the Bell Tolls
Blackened
Master of Puppets
The video won the Grammy award for video of the year but unfortunately it distracts from the song itself which is epic
This was the first song I hurt my neck listening to
He got blown up. He's only alive inside his head now.
Ww1 true story

You should listen to Led Zeppelin's
"No Quarter" it'll take you on a musical journey.
The thing on his face is a fly shield. It prevents insects from laying eggs in the orifaces of his face. ❤🤍💙
hey man love your channel..i was in the idf.all true..
Great thoughtful reaction to an amazing but sad song.
If you want a more contemporary but also VERY freaky Metallica song to check out, watch the video for a song called "All Nightmare Long".
It's off th' chain, and nobody has really been reacting to it!
🎸🎸🎸🔥🔥🔥
🔥.
Pretty self explanatory lyrics I would’ve thought.
Grew up on this stuff... im fine 😅
Master of puppets.
Metal was very misjudged from the start.
Listen to " No Leaf Clover" live
You did a good job of understanding the song and music video without having the lyrics in front of you. Do you ever look at the lyrics during a reaction video?
Iron Maiden's Ryme of the Ancient Mariner got me through juniors honors english and Alexander the Great through western civ.
If you like metal music then listen to dragon force kill switch edge or thy art is murder
Also Cannibal Corpse, Slayer, Trivium, etc.
Dude wdym? English is not even my first language and I can understand what it's about.
Or Metallica…
