This song hits hard as you get older. Deep track. One of my all time favorite🔥
Very real so true. When the black album came out it was no where near at the time as earlier more as who I was at the time. Now it's genius. And experience of life so a bit more knowledge. Experience is knowledge and that's ours individually for all. Before it's more someone said this and that's how we see it. 👍😁All the best to all is my go. Life's short the saying goes. True and undeniable.
Exactly, for 30 year olds to write this is amazing, this is not something you really grasp til your 50s
I was 15 when this album came out. You do not lie.
James Hetfield of Metallica wrote 'The Unforgiven' about his parents... He had endured a difficult childhood under Christian science beliefs, his father left the family, and then his mom died from cancer after refusing treatments for her beliefs... It was hard becoming an introverted adult and discovering that the world in their view was a lie, and lead him to a path of alcohol abuse and reckless behavior... especially in Metallica's early days...
Having been raised a JW, I can empathize
@@shanebrown4146 Different context... Maynard Keenan's mom Judith Marie was a devout Christian. She suffered a stroke in 1976, when Maynard was just 11 yrs old... and she was partially paralyzed for 27 years until her death. Maynard was perplexed by her devotion to religion, despite her difficult circumstances that likely affected Maynard as well...
People do not understand that their problems (addictions, disease, handicaps) eventually become others' problems when they have to take care of them.
Maynard wrote 'Judith' (A Perfect Circle) and 'Wings for Marie' (Tool) about his mom.
To Hetfield's mom's credit, she did buy him his first amp.
Thanks
Thank you for the background info. It definitely hits harder now.
Nothing Else Matters and this song are on the same album. Idc what anyone says, it's a masterpiece. It's their fifth studio album released in 1991
I'd agree.
Id agree also, this album was classic.
Couldn't agree more, their last amazing album in my opinion.
Every Metallica album that came after The Black Album sucked!! And that's the truth.
@@bonsai67 yep 100% agree
My mother in law had this played in church at her funeral. May she rest in peace 🕊️
Absolutely, may she rest in peace. Cool ass Mom in law.✌️
🤘
That must have been so powerful.
Nice,what a cool church/vicar/priest!
As a teenager, this song to me was about a child being forced into a life that they did not want. Being controlled to live a specific life that one's parents deemed "correct" for a child. In the process stifling the freedom and independence and eventually crushing the spirit and soul of the child. Eventually, the child wakes up and realizes that they have been fighting against this all their life, but are powerless to prevent the eventual loss of their will, "this old man here is me". With their life now wasted and all potential to ever "see what might have been" they dub whoever destroyed them as "Unforgiven".
And that's exactly what it's about. His parents pushing religion @ him and in the end neither parent "practiced what they preached".
Teaching religion to anyone under 18 should be considered child abuse.
@@eleven2170 they scare little kids with stories of hellfire and damnation , eternal suffering etc. giving them ptsd and nightmares sometimes.
And if it turns out hell is very real all these comments are going to hit much differently. Religion is not "forced" on hardly anyone in American, that is just a flat out lie. There are always rare exceptions, but simple having to go to church as a kid is not forcing religion on anyone. Everyone grows and and does what they want to do as an adult. Most kids today do what they want to do as kids, they don't even have to wait to adulthood. The comments smell more of religious bigotry than anything, you all grew up and did whatever you wanted with your lives as adults.
@@ExperienceEric you're seriously going to tell me that there are no children in the US made to go to church and at least go along with the charade to keep from being abused? Of course there are. And quite frankly I don't think a god who would create a damned soul by default is worthy of worship.
The entire Black Album is a masterpiece......every single song is awesome....its one of those CDs you could pop in, and just let it play.........."Dont Tread on Me" and "of Wolf and Man" are both exceptional as well as the many singles this album produced.....Sad but true, Wherever I may Roam, Unforgiven................the album is just a masterpiece
Wolf and Man is just an awesome concept the execution was perfect. And then James wolf themed guitar neck.
I love the Black album, but Don’t Tread on Me is awful. Just my opinion, don’t freak out on me.
Everything on the Black Album, Ride The Lightning and, "And Justice For All" was excellent. Every Single Song on each of those albums was something any band should be proud to their own.
Hell yeah
@@StuartGray you don’t like master of puppets or kill ‘em all?
One of Kirk Hammett's best solos imo
Sharp as tbf.
Lex, you are a true music lover. You have such an open mind you realize if musicians are good, they're good. You allow for them to have different sounds and still acknowledge their greatness. You don't get mad if they experiment and try to develop and grow in their creativity. You don't compare apples to oranges, or think music is a competition. Metallica is lucky to have a fan like you. Thumbs up, sister.
There are 3 Unforgiven"s, My favourites in order are 1 or 3 (I can't decide) then 2. This is from the "Black" Album, it's actually called Metallica but everyone refers to it as The Black Album. This this the album that made Metallica the biggest metal band of all time.....who doesn't know Enter Sandman and Nothing Else Matters?
This was my first Metallica album and I went back and bought all of their older albums. So if it wasn't for this album I probably wouldn't be a Metallica or Metal fan
Did you see Metallica on Howard Stern show? Miley Cyrus covered Nothing Else Matters for her album and her producer asked Elton John to do the intro and outro on piano for the song instead of guitar and while they were on Howard Stern Elton zoom called in and told them that Nothing Else Matters was one of the best songs ever written and James was visibly shaken when he said that. It was pretty awesome.
I love sad but true.
I enjoy all 3 as well. However I quite like part 2. Not sure why. Probably my age the time it came out had some sort of significance.
I think 2 is my favourite one, but I like them all
black album gets a lot of crap from the 'true music /metal fans'.. and I agree that it's hardly their best work.. but this song is an undeniable masterpiece IMO. 10/10.
@@shanebrown4146 I LOVE god that failed. Another gem. But there are songs on there I really don't like.. don't tread on me in particular.
Gets crap from fans that loved their sound. This was like they put an AC/DC album in the metallica sleeve..... I mean I like AC/DC, but if I'm looking for thrash, this wasn't it..... the album should have been called "The Day Metallica Sold Out"
@@shanebrown4146 lol....👌
@@mikemclaughlin3306 yeah yeah.. I've been arguing with other old school metallica fans like you since I was 12. Hating the black album and then saying you like AC/DC.. is hysterically hypocritical. That beer time party band is completely commercial cock rock with no substance or edge. This song is for you.. pay close attention to the lyrics.. ruclips.net/video/QOR0RilgO2w/видео.html
@@shanebrown4146 The sellout move would be to just making the black album over and over.. experimenting and pushing themselves in widely different styles of music on load and reload is the opposite of selling out IMO. It lead to mixed results but the entire thing was about artistic growth.
Well, now you have to listen The Unforgiven parts II and III. You'll love it.
I second that motion!!
+1
Yep. I think they only get better
Yes Brad and Lex
I was thinking the same thing, you have to listen to the trilogy now.
This is just a masterpiece. From the Morricone western guitars to the lyrics. The melodies and guitars.
Love this song. It's completely badass.
Next up Metallica - Unforgiven II and Unforgiven III
Its hard to pick one Metallica song as a favorite, but I really love this one. The vocal arrangements are awesome.
Fade to black and unforgiven🔥🔥🔥
Following Metallica is like the phases of marriage. Started like the best thing ever, changed over time and slowed down, got to a phase where we didn't even know each other and wanted a divorce, and then got back to our roots and realized we still love each other and are going to be ok. 😂
Now you have to react to The Unforgiven 2 and 3!
Played this song in my school talent show Lolol has the most meaning to me out of all of their songs even played the acoustic guitar at the soft parts like James🥲
This album spent over 550 weeks on the Billboard charts, 3rd longest ever. It also sold over 16,000,000 in America and 31,000,000 around the world.
It's actually over 35 million
And older metallica fans at the time called us sellouts for loving that album at that time
They are in the pantheon of great musical groups.
"....do I like young you or old you..." perfect analogy for the progression we all enjoy in really great bands.
If you truly want to understand James Hetfield’s childhood listen to Dyer’s Eve.
They did dude
I forgot how epic the solo is! This was the first cassette I ever purchased. Where does the time go…
You guys should react to…
Metallica - My Friend of Misery
🎸🤘
My favorite song off this album. Good choice
As an original Metallica fan (Cliff Burton era) I was one of those people that wasn't sure what to think about some of the black album. The first time I heard Enter Sandman I friggin LOVED it, but then Nothing Else Matters totally threw me for a loop. Once I accepted that as the "new" Metallica I thought that this song was something REALLY special!
The Black Album was the first album I ever found that I loved every single song
Same, Nirvana's "Nevermind" was another one I loved every song on from that era...
First album from Metallica was Master of Puppets, then Ride the lightning and 'and justice for all', 'Black' album is good, but too much pop.
@@MrRoosterx I think their 'Black' album was the best album they made... Just my opinion.
@@LSD123. most people agree with you which is why it was seen as a sellout by Metallica's earlier fans. The black album went pop and disappointed the real metalheads.
Ride the lightning, master of puppets and black albums are the 3 albums that all songs are good. And I agree nevermind is one as well. But I do like ride the lightning best over all even though I was introduced with black album.
I found Metallica during this Album as an 8th grader. So I will always love this album. Plus it sold like 20 million copies so how could everyone be wrong.
e.g. = AT LEAST 20 million people in this world like to sexually abuse children.
"so how could everyone be wrong" ???
It still sells about a million copies
Best album for sure.
Yep almost 30million to date
35 and going.
I'm really enjoying Lexi can pinpoint where a song is on the Metallica timeline. This was right as they started to use a more hard rock sound and an actual producer who produced sonically good records.
Metal ballads have such an epic cinematic quality to them
It took some time for me to adjust to the songs on this album. I was used to their 'Master Of Puppets' sound since it was the first album I had owned. Still, the 'Black' album grew on me over time.
I've had that same experience with a lot of different artists too, when their following album sounds completely different to their usual sound. SOAD, Slipknot, The Prodigy etc. I've disliked albums upon release but grown to love and appreciate them over time once my own musical tastes have changed.
I prefer Pasta Of Muppets
@@NoRUclipsName1 - LOL!
@@peterwale6821 - It was after the 'Black' album that I struggled with being "tolerant" of Metallica's follow up efforts. While there might be songs I was able to enjoy, overall, I lost complete interest and just continued listening and purchasing albums from other bands that I liked. The very last album I purchased from Metallica was 'Hardwired'. At least the title track from the album is decent. I have yet to sit through the rest of it. With Slipknot, it wasn't that I didn't dig what they released, they just weren't releasing "Slipknot" albums. They started having that "Stone Sour" sound to them, and I also dig that band. I just don't feel the two should mix.
I think the lyrics are pretty straight forward. A bitter old man reflecting on his life, all the things he didn't do, all the things that didn't become. Also sounds like he never got to really be himself, to be free. His whole life was a battle, but the last battle, death, he cannot win. "The old man then prepares to die regretfully. That old man here is me."
Good and sad song.
The song is actually about James' life growing up.
@@jasonpatrick5660 Yeah I guess that makes sense. In the beginning there's something about "the young boy learns their rules", referring to his christian science parents and their strict regime. The overall song still fits my reading of it I think, as it's about what was lost and could have been, never to come back etc.
It's true you do fall in love with the music of Metallica
This song touched me so much when I was a kid I actually got unforgiven tattooed on my arm my friend who was 16 too did it. lol
The Black album was their mainstream breakthrough album released in 1991. Bob Rock produced the sound. Very different to before and has polarised the metal community. I personally love the album, while preferring their earlier albums. I do like Load and Reload is ok, beyond that it's not my cup of tea. Their 80s material is outstanding.
Ha! I could've written the same comment. I feel the same about all the albums you mentioned. I think it is also a matter of when you discovered them maybe. I can understand that people think the black album is too soft. But I think the song writing on many songs is amazing. But I also love all the early stuff. Ride the lightning was my first album and I got Kill'em all shortly after that. Followed them hard until Load/Reload and also got Garage Inc. (which I find interesting and love several songs a lot too, especially on cd1). I think then my focus shifted a bit and when St. Anger came out I did not like it immediately and I think I never listened to the whole album, ever. Kinda the same happened with Death Magnetic ... still listening to Metllica a lot, though.
Almost the same on my end. But although I got really hooked to them at the Black album, I kinda see the mainstream transition to this album through "And Justice for All" album.. It was still really metal, but not as metal as their previous albums like MoP which I didn't enjoyed as much... OMG I want to hear some AJFA songs now.. it's been a while!
This entire album may be the greatest album I have ever heard top to bottom.
No question about it for me. A true masterpiece. Not a single miss.
That's from the "sell out" period. Their hard-core fans accused them of selling out. Hetfield said damn right, we sell out everywhere we play.
I didn't care for this "new" Metallica when I first heard it as a young 20 year-old in 1991. I loved their raw energy that I fed on since Kill 'Em All. But now, I really appreciate what this song is about, and I can feel it in my bones. This song has so much more meaning in my 50s.
“Somewhere between ‘Blackened’ & ‘Nothing Else Matters’” … don’t let her outta your sight Brad!!! 🤘
"It's somewhere between Blackened and Nothing Else Matters". She knows Metallica better than I do.
Yeah, The Unforgiven is Track 4, Nothing else Matters Track 8 on Metallica. And Blackend of course on the previous album.
It sounds nothing like Blackened
It sounds nothing like Blackened but regarding Nothing Else Matters, they're from the same album.
I CAN ALWAYS LISTEN TO METALLICA AND ANYTIME!!!!⚡🤘🔥🔥🤘⚡HELL YEAH BABY!!!!
In the US Army in 93 and heard a dude cranking this from his room. I busted in and said this is Metallica?!?!? He just grinned...I bought the cd that night where it became a fixture on my 5 disc carousel cd changer (remember those?) for the next several years.. along side AIC, STP, PJ and SG
Lex, you were born to be a metal, hard rock, and hair band aficionado. I’ve never seen someone who just takes to these genres of music like a duck to water like you do. Brad, you always make me smile. Just the serious look like you’re trying to figure out the motive of the songs but, I’m sorry, you don’t have a poker face. We can tell when you actually enjoy the music far more than you let on. Please keep broadening the horizons.
What a song, what a band, grew up listening to these and other amazing bands
Yeah this is my youth. This and Nirvana and Pearl Jam and Pantera and so many more...
This was released just a few months before Clint Eastwood's movie "Unforgiven" and I remember at the time that it would have been something that would have been awesome if they had been linked somehow...
They are desribing a person who has been controlled and beaten down from the moment he entered the world until he was old enough to regret letting them do that to him
This song is from the Black Album.
As well as Nothing else matters
This song is fire
React to suicide and redemption by metallica!!
This song resonates for me as I see it describes a life that begins with being repressed by horid people and transitions through a life typified by unfulfilled potential and ends with the resultant bitterness. Very sad.
This is actually on the same album as nothing else matters. Along with Enter sandman, follow the God that failed, wherever I may roam, my friend of misery. This album came out I believe 91. It's the point where most believe Metallica became more commercial in their sound
Nice to see MetaLex back in action, riding the couch lightning during the solo. ✌️
Backend was on the And Justice For All... album 1989. The Unforgiven was on The Black album 1991 with the song Enter Sandman.
You should check out "Of Wolf and Man" it's off the Black Album with Enter Sandman, Nothing Else Matters, and Unforgiven.
The black album the album that most metalheads say was metallica selling out to the mainstream music industry. Whereas in actual fact this album acted as a gateway to many to delve into metal i think the black album helped make metal what it is today, it made metallica and many other bands money and made metallica the bigvest metal band on the planet
Ahhh . . . The Godfather trilogy of metal songs
The Unforgiven and The Unforgiven II are exquisite
The Unforgiven III? . . . Meh
Metallica is one of the Great Bands of our Time! I remember when this Album came out in the Early 90's, we played the Album over & over and Never got Tired of it.
Band legendaris hard rock band ... 👍
This albums lost a lot of fans, but also gained a lot of fans.
RATM is more aggressive than Metallica lol . RATM is nu-metal (rap-punk metal) and in your face.
Interesting that you said between Blackened and Nothing Else Matters. This song is on the same album - The Black Album - as Nothing Else Matters.
The Batman song!! This sing is about Bruce Wayne and his feelings towards himself and the joker!!
Plz react to Metallica Fight fire with fire studio ver
A real thrashy song from 84:)
So...
I know Hetfield said he didn't loke that Corey Taylor had Slipknot and Stone Sour. He felt all of the music should be under one band.
I disagree. And this album is a great example. If this was Hetfield and Hammett with some other guys and called.. I dunno... Bad Ass Rockers... the Metallica fans of old wouldn't have been so disappointed in their direction. They may have jumped on the new band's records because they knew it wasn't Metallica.
This album isn't the Metallica of the first four albums. And then Fuel kinda clunked too. So now you have old Metallica fans and new Metallica fans and not sure if they coexist as well as they would had there been a se ind band name.
I was 23 in 1991 and this was a big f'n deal...good tune but not worth the hype. The follow-ups were far better
I want this played at my funeral...however, I forgive you all!
These “lyric” videos don’t always have the “correct” lyrics……….
This would've been a good background track for 300
Girls dig the guitar solos 😂. Metallica has the best guitar solos next to Van Halen. IMO.
This is hard rock Metallica. Mainstream Metallica. Not thrash. But was still a good album.
Brad, dude, you should have kissed her when Lex said she basically loved the young you and the adult you the same...because she loves you.
Just sayin
Great reaction! James proved he was a legit singer for The Unforgiven. In fact, his vocals would begin to change drastically after the Black album (e.g., vocal damage, singing lessons, wider vocal range). Check out Unforgiven 2&3; The Outlaw Torn; Bleeding Me; Hero of the Day 🤘⚡
Idk man, his voice in Fade to Black was something else
aww Lex was so cute talking about loving Brad
One of my favorite Metallica songs.
Do "Eye of the Beholder" from the ...and justice for all album
Yeah I saw this group is Faith No More took my cousins to a show can't remember exactly where it was but it was an outdoor Arena it's so amazing that they played in front of millions of people in Russia back in the day there's another version of this song I like Unforgiven 2 is so awesome he got to hear it the guitarist uses what's called a b Bender Telecaster you have pulled down the neck of the guitar and it causes the strap to activate the spring which just loosens are tight ends to b string on the guitar it was normally used on country songs but it's really amazing the way they rearrange that song it's absolutely unreal okay you goofballs
EXACTLY mid Metallica, early 90's
In 1991 This album, Nirvana Nevermind, Peral Jam Ten, Guns N Roses Use Your Illusion 1&2, Red Hot Chili Peppers Blood Sugar Sex Magic, and Soundgarden Badmotherfinger All Came out within 44 Days of each other. It was an awesome time for music. Also Pearl Jam Ten is essentially a perfect album... not a single bad song.
So this song is part one of three that was done over years, this being the first is about that anger and rebellion of feeling oppressed in your youth from your family or society so he can’t forgive them, the second one is about middle life where his relationships are not satisfactory and he sees his anger and betrayal from his lover and she is unforgivable also, in the third song from the viewpoint of an older man that is reflecting on his life realizing he has blamed everyone for his failures and holding him back but in fact it was him that is to blame for his decisions and failures and finally realizes he is actually the person he can never forgive.
Yes! I hope you guys take my song suggestions. I have suggested this one and a few other reactions ive seen by you guys.
Lexie nails another analogy...
The different phases of Metallica are
Like the different phases of life of the one you love...
Lexie never ceases to surprise me with her insight...
This is when Metallica sold out!!!
Only for a couple of songs though. Load and Reload good. Death Magnetic Amazing!!!!! I won't mention that other album? Lol!
*Now you had to do "Unforgiven II and Unforgiven III"
This one is great. The other Unforgiven songs are kind of...eh....
This continues to be in my top 3 Metallica songs ever. It's genius, heartbreaking and means something to everyone who loves it. So glad you enjoyed it.
The old school Metallica fans (those who loved the band BEFORE this album) will say this album "The Black Album" was the start of the transformation - they'll say for the worst. I love The Black Album, and I've been a fan of Metallica since mid-80s. Now it's not the best by far, but alot of good was in it.
This song and Nothing Else Matters are on the same album. But the follow-up albums after this further and further diverged from what we old school fans consider to be their best music.
However, The Black Album found ALOT of new Metallica fan (over 20 mil copies of the album sold, and several singles on the radio and 5 years on the road touring from it). The comments on this illustrate how many fans "found Metallica with this album". That's because it was the first one with radio friendly corporate rock sounding songs.
Thats why older generation of Metallica fans don't enjoy it as much. It's still good - just not the same.
That snare hits so hard and pure. The drums are my favorite part of this song.
I love how this song is loud and heavy in the verse, and then quiet in the chorus! It's like the opposite of a lot of songs. ... Like, "Smells Like Teen Spirit" is quiet in the verse, but loud in the chorus. This is the opposite! ... Plus, the solo is one of the best!
The hardcore Metallica fans might not agree but this is my favorite song by them. It has a lot more going on than most of their other stuff. This took a lot more talent to make imo.
Look at you two becoming experts!
Metallica started doing 'ballads' from album 2, Ride the Lightning 1984 with the song Fade To Black. They stood out for that very reason.
Same album as Nothing Else Matters. lol
Unforgiven 2 is definitely one you have to check out
I love how lex gets into metallicas sound and can just feel it! Awesome.
Please react to the hollies, he ain't heavy he's my brother.
This is "calm "Metallica. I relate to the lyrical content
If you wanna hear Metallica take it to a near heavy metal sound, then react to ‘St. Anger’
There are still a ton of the thrashy songs left for you guys to check out 😉
hard, hard overplayed on the radio back in his days, I didnt listen to this song for about 20 years now.
Its an ok song to me.. but like "Nothing else matters" not in my personal top 10 of awesome Metallica songs.
Outlaw torn next please but the live version
