This bass line particularly the part starting at 4 minutes was the first thing I learned how to play. My Father heard me playing it and was awestruck. Then he asked "Did you write that"? Another Metallica fan was born. That was a long time ago...
To me, there has never been a song that has captured the feeling, rather, the presence of space like this one. Particularly in the intro, with the booming, vibrating and astronomical sounding bass. It truly sounds like how space looks like. I’m not sure how they did it, but this song is space in music form. It’s so beautiful
I was ten when this song was released. Played it recently for my ten year old daughter. She loved it. Cliff, your influence continues beyond the grave.
@@altantulga8138 thanks for the comment about a “baby” you know nothing about. She’s a musician who happens to have the circle of fourth and circle of fifths memorized, knows the seven modes of the major scale, and has been playing piano since she was five and guitar since she was nine. I think she has the ability to know and enjoy good music when she hears it. But thanks again for your opinion.
not even a little. Compositionally it is probably the closest popular musical genre to classical, sure. But classical music on electrical instruments? Do not be silly
I see Orion as a sign of the band's maturity, a stepping stone from Call Of Ktulu, and a symbol of optimism. As though things can only get better. And then Cliff died. Then 1989 brought a more hopeless sounding album and their darkest instrumental. And the progression to hope dwindled.
I see Master of Puppets as the Band reaching towards its Peak, this song epitomized it, the Beautiful Classical Solos on Bass & Guitar shows Cliff Burton's Master Skills of Writing and Performance. He was a Loss to the World.
My son Orion (Greek: Ωρίων)is named after this song. While my wife was pregnant we used to walk by the lake during covid times to avoid the city, looking at the constellation of Orion. We are both Metallica fans and 2.5 years since then, this is my son“s favourite sleeping song. All of his life so far he has been listening to this masterpiece before going to bed. As a matter of fact he is listening to this right now, as he is slowly falling asleep. I also got astronomy as a hobby. Who would have thought that a young bassist from earth would ever had such an influence to the universe.
Yeah, but do you want to lose your hearing, because that is how you lose your hearing. How are you supposed to listen to the very music that you love oh so much if you lose your sense of hearing?
It definitely sounds a lot cleaner; there's a fantastic separation between Cliff's bassline and the rest of the band that wasn't there before. Thanks for doing this!
Orion is a prominent constellation located on the celestial equator and visible throughout the world. It is one of the most conspicuous and recognizable constellations in the night sky. It was named after Orion, a hunter in Greek mythology. In Greek mythology, Orion was a giant huntsman whom Zeus placed among the stars as the constellation of Orion.
Should be a crime listening to this masterpiece with low volume. I was not born in the 80's, but I feel blessed to enjoy this piece of art. Cliff was truly a genius.
You made the best instrumental in the entirety of metal even better by allowing Cliff to shine. That, my good sir, makes you a god among men. My deepest respect.
Last night (December 30, 2019), around 9:00, I took my dog Nelson out. While waiting for him, I just happened to glance North, and there, in all its beauty, was the Hunter himself! What was amazing was that the constellation was tipped over so that the three stars in the belt were nearly vertical! I swear I found myself thinking about the song, and could almost hear Cliff’s magnificent bass lines resounding in my mind. It was a truly magical moment!! RIP Cliff Burton! I’m hoping to learn the bass sometime, and he is definitely one of my greatest inspirations!! 🤘🏻😎
LOL😀😀, That's sooo fkn true, eh??! I LOVE this one,....... Welllll 2 B honest w. Y'all , I totally grew up with this band and looove all their bad ass songs!! ..... Btw thanks for the song redone its cool man!! HEAVY METAL, -N- ROCK& ROLL WILL NEVER DIE!! 😉
Once I heard this on a long distance flight back home to germany from vietnam. A few seconds after I've chose this track from the music selection I've looked through the window and saw glorious thunderstorm rage through the cloudy night. It was the most metal moment in my life thus far. It didnt make this up it really happenend.
A similar thing happened to me when I was playing learning to live by Dream Theater during a track workout. We were doing 400 meter repeats and right before the last rep, it started pouring and thundering and I used the strength of the music to help me finish it out in the most badass way possible.
Its really weird how the right music can turn up at the right moment. I remember having a massive asthma attack, camping, lying pretty much on my back, thinking I was going to die. Led Zepplins "all of my love" was on the radio, and I remember drifting in and out of consciousness while iit played thinking "What is this beautiful song that I seem to be dying to" and then I was being loaded into an ambulance (Apparently my brother cottoned on and ran for help, this was in the days before mobile phones, but i was too hypoxic to really remember what happened. Just that tune. I think the tune kept me alive somehow, as if my brain was saying "Must keep awake long enough to finish hearing this song". It took me a few years before I finally worked out what the song was and what it was called.
I'm friends with Cliff Burton's sister on social media. Someone just sent her this video a few days ago and she listened to it and liked it. I bet you never were thinking that would happen when you made this video
It's Metallica's masterpiece imo. For years I have held the view that this song is the zenith of their music. Every note, every tempo change, every transition, every harmonic, etc. is perfectly placed. It's an extraordinary composition that imo has yet to be matched in the realm of metal instrumentals.
In my opinion, this is the best instrumental ever. I love The Call of Ktulu, but since this was the last one with Cliff from my favorite album of all time this song has a special place in my heart. RIP Cliff. You are sorely missed.
Just heard they are gonna go on tour, I really wanna see how fast that dude on bass’ fingers move. I think his name was Cliff. Hoping my dad can get us tickets!
So.. I was listening to the 4th movement of Beethoven's 9th, specifically the ode to joy and the march that comes after it and youtube autoplayed this afterwards. That's so lit.
I love all those things too and I love belts (especially the deep space varieties)! If 100% pure, authentic, unadulterated love could be squared and then squared again and again to the square of a googleplex number of times, that would be infinitely below the level of love that I feel for this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Agree. But plz don't say astronomy. That's just the geography of the universe. Astrophysics is likely more accurate. Unless you really mean astronomy, then disagree.
I was 11 when the album was released (Masters of Puppets). I remember if it was just yesterday my mom buying it for me at a local music store. When I got to "Orion" I just couldn't get it out of my head...especially the middle part where it's just Cliff...gosh can't tell how many tears I've lost when it would get to that part over the years...We miss you Cliff..

This song kicks my ass just much as it did when I heard it for the first time 33 years ago. My first concert was Metallica opening for Ozzy (My buddy and I were there for Metallica) 7/25/86, Almost 2 months to the day before we lost Cliff. I was 15. They were my shit then, and they're my shit now. Just saw them for the 5th time last month. BADASS. Long live the boys. STILL my favorite band.
My dad was too old to be a Metallica fan, but he also called me "#1 son." And his musical tastes weren't so bad, but older people born during WW2 (the Zionist Bankster Wars) just weren't wired to be metal heads (most of them anyway.) RIP all good Dad's. Especially mine who was the BEST. I received my Metallica Master of Puppets in the mail in 1986 when I was 11 years old. Get 11 free albums up front and only had to buy 7 more albums of my choice for full price per the contract. Wasn't such a bad deal except this was before CDs and the cassettes wore out. lol
This has always been one of if not my all time favorite Metallica song! This remix is amazing and is now replacing the original mix as my all-time favorite! Well done sir!!
I let 5 of my (non metal listening) friends listen this track without showing the title an asked them afterwards what they were thinking the song was representing. 4 of them said 'space' or something related to space. The power of music everyone
This is Metallica's truest masterpiece imo. If there is one track they wrote that will live on the longest, my bet would be on this one. It set the standard for all metal instrumentals to come and I'm not sure it's ever been outdone. Beethoven would have been proud of this. Great job with the remaster btw.
Every time I hear this masterpiece, I can't help but imagine an object as common as a box or a wooden block traveling through the vast vacuum of space at the sight of the stars.
When all metal heads ascend to heaven they will hear instead of an angel choir the most incomprehensible and beautiful bass solo. They will then realize that it is cliff Burton creating cosmic symphonies and creating stars and planets with only a bass, cliff Burton was the beginning and his death was not the end.
Ahdy, your mix is amazing...to be able to hear Cliff's playing in a new light is such a gift...thank you! As for the song itself, it is an absolute Magnum Opus. Wonderful, beautiful, powerful...inspired and inspiring.
He hasn't changed the sound, he's just made it more Metallica. You can tell Ahdy has a true love for the source material and put a lot of passion into this remix.
Yup thirty years later... Not only sporting goose bumps, tears running down both cheeks!!! Now that's what its like to "feel" life. Cliff 'em all!!! Forever!!! Cheers!
That's because this piece of music is simply transcendent. It's an epic journey into space (or some other world) that is masterfully done, and the sum is greater than the parts even though the parts are magnificent. Every note, every tempo change, every choice made on this track is perfect.
Thanks for uploading . Love pictures of space The universe is awesome. Metallica's music is awesome and reminds me that there is order in the universe.
Poor Cliff dying like the way he did......Makes u wonder what other dimensions the band could have taken us to if he was still with us? Freaken masterpiece!!!
Ça doit faire 20 fois que je post mais tant pis! Cette vidéo sur mon vidéoprojecteur wish avec quand même du son qui envoi, me fascine toujours autant ! Magnifique. Encore merci à l'auteur ( et à Cliff..😢)
Love what you have done here my Friend! I have the Orion constellation tattooed on my back! Absolutely my most favourite Metallica song! Thanks for making this video brother! Much love from Canada.
There are many great bassists in the history of music BUT Cliff was the 1st one to make me stop the tape n say "HOLY SHIT THAT'S A BASS?"...NUFF SAID!!!!
how in the hell does this video have 724 dislikes?!?!? not only is this one of the best instrumentals ever recorded, but the remastering is fantastic each instrument stands so well on their own as well as making something absolutely incredible when working in conjunction with one another

Another great space-y instrumental is Interstellar Overdrive by Pink Floyd, made back in 1967 with Syd Barrett.
Check out Set Course for Andromeda by Sithu Aye, he's a fantastic instrumentalist who makes unique metal fusion
Yes I agree this is the musical representation of space, a true masterpiece, that no other instrumental metal track could ever beat.
really start to feel it at 1:45
Planet Caravan from Sabbath is another great piece of cosmic music. If you catgh the feeling of it, it will give you goosebumps, damn trip.

The 6/8 middle section is euphoric.
Cliff Burton died at 24. Hard to believe someone could be such an accomplished musician at that age.
Musical prodigies exist. Mozart did his finest work in childhood
@@tomzadvydas1758 That would be someone's opinion.
Not really when you consider how good and new Metallicas sound back then was

Could you imagine what they would sound like if he was still alive.? Wow.

And then Cliff died. Then 1989 brought a more hopeless sounding album and their darkest instrumental. And the progression to hope dwindled.
In my opinion, Orion shows pure genius as composers and To Live Is To Die and the whole Justice album shows maturity.
@etresevo Orion has a sense of wonder and happiness to it. To Live Is To Die sounds aggressively tragic and mournful. Tonally, they're opposites.
I see Master of Puppets as the Band reaching towards its Peak, this song epitomized it, the Beautiful Classical Solos on Bass & Guitar shows Cliff Burton's Master Skills of Writing and Performance. He was a Loss to the World.

My dad loved this tune by Metallica every time I hear it reminds me of him R.I.P Daddy Love Your #1 son
Rust Ed Nailz You had an awesome dad buddy. Hope you're doing okay. \m/
Don't worry man, he's out there touring the heavens with Cliff himself.
Sorry for your loss. Your dad must have been a great man.
My dad was too old to be a Metallica fan, but he also called me "#1 son." And his musical tastes weren't so bad, but older people born during WW2 (the Zionist Bankster Wars) just weren't wired to be metal heads (most of them anyway.) RIP all good Dad's. Especially mine who was the BEST. I received my Metallica Master of Puppets in the mail in 1986 when I was 11 years old. Get 11 free albums up front and only had to buy 7 more albums of my choice for full price per the contract. Wasn't such a bad deal except this was before CDs and the cassettes wore out. lol
@@slvrizgold great music. One of my favorits 👍👍
my neighbors favorite song, whether he likes it or not
The GreyJedi2112 love
😂😂👌🏻
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!
Ha ha ha. True.
Cheers to that..
This sounds like a completely different song. Very cool to hear the bass so clearly.
This has always been one of if not my all time favorite Metallica song! This remix is amazing and is now replacing the original mix as my all-time favorite! Well done sir!!
I let 5 of my (non metal listening) friends listen this track without showing the title an asked them afterwards what they were thinking the song was representing. 4 of them said 'space' or something related to space. The power of music everyone
Martijn Kemperman It's mostly the bass intro I think, it has a feeling of vast emptiness, like space c:
actually this made all my friends think about punching thru a robot's skull... weird
evalha007 They confused it with Megadeth LOL
The best band from the world
u have... friends?
This is Metallica's truest masterpiece imo. If there is one track they wrote that will live on the longest, my bet would be on this one. It set the standard for all metal instrumentals to come and I'm not sure it's ever been outdone. Beethoven would have been proud of this. Great job with the remaster btw.
Orion!! See you in a thousand years!
❤
I love to see you now
Imagine traveling through space listening to Orion.. fearless.
Every time I hear this masterpiece, I can't help but imagine an object as common as a box or a wooden block traveling through the vast vacuum of space at the sight of the stars.
To paraphrase Men in Black: Cliff Burton didn't die, he went home.
We'll said my friend
+Alex K He went back home to heaven where Gods like him remain...RIP...
+Alex K no he died. he ceased to be. he is an ex-bassist
no actually he moved on. His soul reincarnated and he may no longer by Cliff Burton but his soul will always be the same!
Sadly this guy has it right. He ceased to be, his brain is no longer observing reality. This will happen to all of us, so plan accordingly.
When all metal heads ascend to heaven they will hear instead of an angel choir the most incomprehensible and beautiful bass solo. They will then realize that it is cliff Burton creating cosmic symphonies and creating stars and planets with only a bass, cliff Burton was the beginning and his death was not the end.
The Alpha and Omega of bass.
Yes my friend that is the truth.
Magical world of Cliff's bass-line.
One of the Greatest music creation ever
Oh my god it's like Christmas came early with all these remasters! You are a genius!
This song brings back such awesome memories. Cliff Burton is at his best. Nobody could do it better.
Ahdy, your mix is amazing...to be able to hear Cliff's playing in a new light is such a gift...thank you! As for the song itself, it is an absolute Magnum Opus. Wonderful, beautiful, powerful...inspired and inspiring.
Awesome remaster. Kick sounds great, can hear all the nuance's in Cliff's bass.
He hasn't changed the sound, he's just made it more Metallica. You can tell Ahdy has a true love for the source material and put a lot of passion into this remix.
Good song and stunning visuals. This song never gets old for me... 👽
Yup thirty years later... Not only sporting goose bumps, tears running down both cheeks!!! Now that's what its like to "feel" life.
Cliff 'em all!!! Forever!!! Cheers!
Very first song I learned on the Bass guitar. Ty for this Cliff "Top Dawg" Burton and the person who posted this. Ty
:)
Something about this song that just speaks to me.
That's because this piece of music is simply transcendent. It's an epic journey into space (or some other world) that is masterfully done, and the sum is greater than the parts even though the parts are magnificent. Every note, every tempo change, every choice made on this track is perfect.
This has to be my favourite instrumental of all time.
Thank you Cliff. 🤘🏻🌌
Lol your name and profile pic
Yes I agree
Thank You. This has always been my favorite Metallica song; your work gave me goosebumps- I could hear everything.
It's great to have a song that shines like the stars.
This epic masterpiece from them is like the book of time. Each musical note has somehow found a place in the whole story.
I keep coming back to this, not only is the song awesome, love the vid too.
Thanks for uploading . Love pictures of space The universe is awesome. Metallica's music is awesome and reminds me that there is order in the universe.
This is the symphony of the universe.
The ultimate bass guitar masterpiece by Cliff who I consider the best bass guitar player I've ever heard.
Cliff Burton's bass skills are like Orion.... it's a bright twinkling wonder that can not be reached by man .....
It took me a while to find these remastered versions but I'm so glad I did. Cheers Ahdy 👍
Hail Hetfield.
The legend who made me pick up a guitar 🤘🤘🤘
the king of all metallica songs. The band would tell you this too.
Poor Cliff dying like the way he did......Makes u wonder what other dimensions the band could have taken us to if he was still with us?
Freaken masterpiece!!!
Lukey 01 probably hell
Ça doit faire 20 fois que je post mais tant pis! Cette vidéo sur mon vidéoprojecteur wish avec quand même du son qui envoi, me fascine toujours autant ! Magnifique.
Encore merci à l'auteur ( et à Cliff..😢)
Best instrumental of all time no contest, what a song!!!!
emotions or vetelgyus by galneryus, the best for me, give them o go ;)
On Impulse by Animals As Leaders is just an amazing piece.
the kall of ktulu is a little better...
Cthulhu has no such progressive flow, it's good but static
bach
There's simply no way to describe this song.
there is no need to describe it. The song has a meaning beyond our human comprehension.
ForzaClutch fuckinsonofabitchibesteverperiod
ForzaClutch is not a song if they arent singing
ForzaClutch better than sex
What a IGNORANT, Stu....er...yknow...nevermind.....
Love what you have done here my Friend! I have the Orion constellation tattooed on my back! Absolutely my most favourite Metallica song! Thanks for making this video brother! Much love from Canada.
I approve this band.
thank you mister president, George Washington
my son likes this song
But... You were a racist who approved of slavery and stuff :(
by George I agree
I bet you’d like Don’t Tread On Me
There are many great bassists in the history of music BUT Cliff was the 1st one to make me stop the tape n say "HOLY SHIT THAT'S A BASS?"...NUFF SAID!!!!
Listen to jaco.
As a guitar player 2:14 - 2:44 is the best riff of all times. I still remember when I was 13 and trying my best to master it.
how in the hell does this video have 724 dislikes?!?!? not only is this one of the best instrumentals ever recorded, but the remastering is fantastic each instrument stands so well on their own as well as making something absolutely incredible when working in conjunction with one another
In a universe far,far away there lived a bass god called Cliff Burton...RESPECT..R.I.P dear friend...
