The way they reframed that story was pretty amazing. I love both versions for entirely different reasons. This version's video is heart wrenching and heartbreaking.
I think people who never been exposed to a lot of heavy metal hear "Metallica" and they think loud, heavy, angry, screaming music and vocals. They don't realize they are, in fact, incredible musicians, songwriters, and basically masters of their craft. This song is a cover, but they were able to take someone else's words and music and give it a different take with their music video than the original. I would love to see you check out more of their work and really listen to the lyrics of their music.
Red I admire you on how you tackle the hardest things and react even though they can upset you. You are such a brave soul and I admire and love that about you💗💗💗 #redheadedneighbor #bestreactor #redsarmy #beautifulfuncountrygirl #33K #heartofgoldwithmetalinhersoul #bestbadjokes #Rushcrush #redheadparrothead #warningawarningaddict #parrotheads #parrothead #redrocker #rush #rushforever
Haven't seen this video since it was released. It's hits totally different now that I'm a dad with two daughters. I was in tears watching the video. Great reaction BTW.
the interview with the lady are actual interivews with the adult film star and not part of the music video, they actually decided to use them in the music video and it really added to the whole vibe of the music video
I did not know they weren't her acting. I knew she was a adult actress and that added to the authenticity but hearing it's actually her being interviewed really adds another level to it
@@antivanti Yeah her name is Ginger Lynn and it was Producers interviewing her for the role i believe, and Lars saw it and said we need to make this part of the music video, i believe they did ask her premission to do add them as well
The video has nothing to do with the original lyrics but holy crap that is a heartbreaking story they told. And the woman in the video was famous 80's porn actress Ginger Lynn.
The fact that they remolded the song into that story is really well done. Lyrics can be subjective, so saying the video has 'nothing to do with the lyrics' isn't true anymore.
I love the way you were cousins with the way you Reviewed this Video but you are right on the way you put it.. I personally think you did it the best way you said it without passing somore off .. good one .. Great Review.. I wanted to hear a woman's reaction to this Metallica Video and it was very much right on.. as far as I'm concerned..
it's so amazing to see someone without a soul (and can't pay attention to lyrics) can get emotional too. i'm kidding, it's obvious you didn't feel a thing. cheers.
Didn't know this was a cover until i started to listen to Bob seger, and to be honest i like alot of Metallicas songs, but in this case i liked the original better
Wow, that one got to you a little bit. I thought some tears were going to be shed. You might be blown away at some of the subjects and lyrical content of Metallica's songs.
What a major reality shock, huh? It sure gives the song a different meaning and view from Bob Segers original. It's a sad reality of our society that women need to feel unsafe or 'on guard' like that.
Another great cover of an amazing Bob Seger rock staple. And Thin Lizzy cover of an old Irish song. The only thing missing is the saxophone from Seger's version.
I thought Bob's version was the original and had no Idea Thin Lizzy covered the song. I've yet to hear a Saxophone in a Metallica song. I wonder if one exists.
This is confusing because you’re talking about two songs. “Whiskey in the Jar” is the song that Thin Lizzy reimagined, which Metallica eventually covered. Metallica has many excellent cover songs.
Hey Beautiful! Bob Seger is a rock genius and this is a great song. Metallica did a great remake of this song. Like a word that can have more than one meaning ( to, two, and too), definitively different than Bob's meaning of the song. Metallica's was pretty intense, and sad.
It would be interesting if you now listened to the original knowing what the song was about. I think the video would definitely have played into your reaction subconsciously. My mum was taught by her brothers back when she was a teenager in the late 1950's to always carry her keys in her hand with the key out of her knuckles when she was walking home at night.
One thing that drew me to Metallica a long time ago was their ability to share their anger through their music about situations that should never be. War, abuse and violence brings their anger out as well as mine. These things should never be but because they do I am angry.
Hi Red. Watched your Ren reaction this afternoon and now this one. That video is really dark. The woman who played the mother is Ginger Lynn. A female adult film star from the 80's. Still hoping to see a reaction to a song or two from The Killers or Brandon Flowers. Have a wonderful weekend.
Disturbing. That's the word/feeling that comes to mind. Mine at least. This was brilliant. I had fallen out of love with Metallica at this point in their careers (I'm old af), but I always held this one & Whiskey in the Jar in pretty high regard.
You haven’t heard anything yet… - Fade to Black live with lyrics - No leaf clover live S&M 1999 - Master of Puppets with lyrics I’m playing them on guitar for over 20 years Enjoy…
This video is obviously loaded with metaphor. The mom is obviously Metallica. Being on the road. Sleeping in dingy motels. Performing for crowds of rowdy drunks. Selling themselves for whatever they can just to make it. A gritty way of living. And the child? She represents Metallica's music. Just as the mom lives and works for the sake of her little girl, so too does Metallica live and work for the sake of their music.
A surprising thing is that Metallica does a lot of covers. They don't usually cover well known artists like Bob Seger (although they have several Motorhead covers)but i think this song hit a chord with them and they love re-interpreting songs. I'm also a Seger fan and i think Metallica did the song justice...so much so that i have the 2 versions on par. A heartbreaking video but Metallica added unmistakable aggression which adds to the tale they are telling.
Metallica's first four albums were awesome. The next album, the Black Album, is where I gave up with them mainly because of a Bob Seger tribute song. I switched over to Pantera in this point in my life. THEY got that punch that Metallica seemed to have drifted from in this time. Both bands are touring still, in 2024, amazing.
You're allowed to like more than one band at a time, no need to switch from one to another. I'm just kidding, I actually find your comment interesting because I never liked Metallica UNTIL the Black album. Now I love most of the older stuff too. I guess I wasn't paying attention back then. The black album showed me that they write great lyrics and I've been a fan ever since.
@@Ilikeryche Truth. I grew up listening to nothing but classical music because of my dad, all good. For me after that it was the Monkees, the Beatles, Black Sabbath, Rush. Then the 1980's metal took over. Slayer. Metallica's last two albums were incredible in my opinion. They do not sound 'old' at all. I still play the violin. Check out the Chicago Symphony Orchestra under Fritz Reiner playing Scheherazade. Pure raw emotion.
This song is about the cons of touring for a musician. Metallica surely put a different spin on it. The video made for a much bigger impact to the song.
Hate to say it, but keys as a self defense weapon are useless. If you live in the USA in a state that allows you to carry a pistol get a purse gun. If you are in Canada or Europe well... any item you plan to use to injure someone is an illegal weapon and you will be punished harsher by the state than the person that attacked you.
@@shmick6079 If you carry an object, any object for the purpose of self defense that becomes an illegal weapon in Canada and most of Europe. The police will often try to trick you into committing a crime by saying things like 'Sure is a dangerous area around here it's a good thing you have the pocket knife on you.'
I thought of a few more Pentatonix songs for you to react to…..Shallow, God Only Knows, Havana, Butter x Dynamite, Be My Eyes, Cheerleader…just to name a few more…thank you!
@@texassendero4901 I thought we were all here to watch her react to songs we like, that people suggest/request, here on her reaction channel, where the title of the video contains "Redhead Reaction to..." . Her reaction to this song/video was the GOAT so far to me. That's what I'm here to see. What is it that keeps you coming back?
@@Ilikeryche I am her friend and support all the artists and like comment and share and all she asks us to do even this as I sent her a tip for doing it until you show this kinda support you can not criticize anyone for their opinion she is the GOAT do you see the hashtags I post for her ???
@@texassendero4901 That's fine but I don't think you should chastise people because they request a song that she might have a strong reaction to. Should we only request elevator music? I have probably shown more support than you know.
I feel that the video is relatable to a rock group's life. They do their thing on the stage, they crash into a motel room, they're judged for their looks, they endure what needs to be endured for that legal tender, lay awake at night wondering what it's all for, if it's worth what it's doing to them and their loved ones, but they have to keep plugging away at it cause it's all they know. For me, what this video is trying to point out is that even a stripper and sex worker deserves empathy and respect.
WOW! First in line! So love some of Bob's stuff but not this one. Love early Metallica but they took a song I didn't like and made it worse (for me 😁). This video!!?? Doesn't jive with the lyrics!! I wonder what Bob Seger thought about the video? It's supposed to be about Rock And Roll musicians on the road! They could have done a WAY better version 10 years earlier!! 🤟🏼🎸🤟🏼 Great Reaction though. Always a Like 👍🏼 for my neighbor!! Peace 🕊️☮️♾️😎
I think in Metallica's version the stripper is substituted for the rock star. A strippers life can be much like that of a rock star. You don't even like Bob's version?
This is horrific and should never have been made.... Listen to the original if you want to hear how it's supposed to be done. This ads nothing, makes nothing better and should be considered a crime against humanity. P.S. BTW.. Seger is still a god here in Detroit... you should listen to anything off Live Bullet.... Every song is great.. Travelling Man/Beautiful loser being about the best though..

Right, just reference so many intros that are such interesting compositions. My favorite is probably No Leaf Clover 🤘😎🔥
James is all emotion. One of the best ever
Fantastic cover..as the single father of a beautiful young girl, the video is heartbreaking

Bob wrote this song about being on the road touring, and being on the stage night after night.
This is what Metllica is like. He takes a familiar topic and shows it to us from a different angle - the one we usually don't see
It is heavy, that's what metal is all about. Most songs have meaning :)
The video has nothing to do with the original lyrics but holy crap that is a heartbreaking story they told. And the woman in the video was famous 80's porn actress Ginger Lynn.

As a former professional guitarist for a few bands I know what touring is like. It’s not all glory.
Great reaction . Metallica does everything at 110%
Their video “One” really makes you think also!
Definitely. She has Rush Wednesday, soon she'll be talking about Metallica Monday, lol.
@@Ilikerycheyes please!!
We miss you Bob! 🤘
GOAT
it's so amazing to see someone without a soul (and can't pay attention to lyrics) can get emotional too. i'm kidding, it's obvious you didn't feel a thing. cheers.
Curse of the gingers
More metallica 🤟🤘🤟 thats a tuff one
Proper reaction Red. Well dun. Loved watching it with u guys. 💚
If you haven’t covered ‘fade to black’ it’s worth checking out.
I grew up in Lapeer Michigan play new Bob seger when he was just doing the local pubs
Didn't know this was a cover until i started to listen to Bob seger, and to be honest i like alot of Metallicas songs, but in this case i liked the original better
original is without a doubt better
Je suis un tres grand fan de Metallica et cette chanson pour moi est leur meilleure reprise❤
Another very powerful one is Concrete Angel by Martina McBride. Although I’d wait a couple days after this one before doing that.
I Love Bob Segers music! He's my favorite singer/songwriter of all time!
Have you watched the video to " One" by Metallica? Prepare to have your mind blown
If you haven’t heard it yet, I highly recommend “Metallica - The Day That Never Comes.”
Wow, that one got to you a little bit. I thought some tears were going to be shed. You might be blown away at some of the subjects and lyrical content of Metallica's songs.

Try ONE(official video) and have lyrics available too...a LOT goin on there.
They took the approach way different than the Bob Segar original. However, there are parallels. Neighbor, your reactions continue to wow me.
Always love your reactions. I like Metallica. But no one does music better than Bob Seger in my opinion.

Great advice on being aware
Bob's version isn't about a stripper.
A stripper could be "The woman or the girl you knew the night before".
Metallica's lead singer said......We should have wrote this song, Because they toured constantly!!!!!!! strippers were a side gig
Metallica doing it great song by Bob Seger. Listen to the original. A bit different.
You haven’t heard anything yet…

It’s a great cover, better than the original IMO,,,
This is a cover of a Bob Segar song. He wrote it about being a rock musician on tour. But Metallica turned it into....somrthing else. ❤🤍💙
Freedom?
Great song By Bob Seger

You should do Loverman from Metallica too. It's really emotional. Kind of like this song
