      I recently came across your channel and appreciation for all sorts of music (which is great for one's soul to be honest). Since you've been checking out some country and liked Chris Stapleton, you should look at these two country songs.. Cam's. Burning house; and Michael Ray's - Her world or mine (Jai might want tissues close by; it's a life humbling Vibe). Enjoy and keep going you two!!

      @ekgrafix 4 года назад +15

      Metallica wrote this song in part cuz the actual book had been banned from schools. The movie was for a time being shown in classrooms but supposingly deemed too disturbing or anti-war propaganda. This was a time in the eighties where censorship began creeping its way into our culture. Many metal bands at the time were fighting censorship as well was rap. Metallica chose this as their first music video ever to ensure this literature stays in the thought of youth. The song Eye of The Beholder from same album is about censorship also. Great lyrics in that one too. Welcome to our (metalheads) world.

Heavy Metal was my first love but, loved Hip Hop since I got LL’s first album. (Yeah I’m old). Anyway, I think more people that listen to Hip Hop should be more open to Metal and vice versa.

    This is probably one of the best metal songs ever written and played. Metallica slayed this one! My favorite! As people listen to this for the first time they tend to miss the message over the music, Which is unbelievable!! You have to listen to this song in stages to really appreciate everything that is transpiring in this song. #1 Listen to the lyrics first. #2 Understand the story line or the message. #3 Listen to the awesome instrumentation/ music. #4 Feel the emotion of the victim through the music. #5 Appreciate how much physical effort, Musical coordination, Stamina, and Spiritual value this has as a message. Metallica is trying to wake people up through their music. Even though many are still asleep maybe; It got through to some. The music represents the emotional consistencies of the victim who is literally Physically destroyed, dying, and going through the greatest emotional confusion a human being can go through. The military industrial complex who makes trillions of dollar's off the blood and life sacrifice of human beings. I cannot believe/comprehend that we still live in a world where, we as people allow the elite to control us to the point that we sacrifice ourselves willingly in the name of Democracy and Honor. There is a time for war but, not the way it has occurred for the last 100 years. Perpetual war????????????? There is no HONOR in murdering each other.

It doesn't even fit in my brain that they would need an introduction, or that people wouldn't know who they were; and then I remembered not everyone listens to the music I love, no matter how much I love it! LOL This is a crazy powerful song and very deep, based on an old movie about the same topic. Regardless of whether you like heavy metal or not, you can not deny the talent here. They are rock gods and legends! I tell people the same thing about Eminem and Garth Brooks when people say they don't like rap or country (respectively). Keep those #GoodVibes coming, guys!

    The lyrics in this song were inspired by a an anti-war book called
    "Johnny got his gun". The footage in the video is from a movie adapted from the book.

    I’ve been binging y’all since last night. I know now the journey you two have been on since y’all made this one. I’m praying for you both because I know waking up is a blessing but it’s a battle. 🙏🏻🩵✌🏻🎶

    I once read an interview which Metallica delivered on the topic of this particular song.
    Given the song's subject, the anguish of a quadruple amputee soldier deprived of his senses of hearing and sight as well as his ability to speak, band members talked to combat veterans about their experience. What they heard over and over again, was that war was composed of long periods of tension and boredom, punctuated with short periods of unimaginable violence and abject terror.
    So, when they wrote the music, they tried to mimic that pattern. Thus, there are long periods during which the melody is quite slow, with percussion adding the tension. The listener feels like the song should be picking up, but the slow tension continues, adding to the anxiety. Finally, as the lyrics describe what happened to the soldier, the tempo and volume pick up. The guitars, vocals and drums get louder, faster and, well, violent. That tempo and volume continue through the soldier's description of his anger, frustration, and despair.
    At its core, the song is intensely anti-war.

    I loved hip hop growing up. I still enjoy hip hop but now I listen to metal rock dance basically everything

    I remember back in like 6th or 7th grade I had to present a poem that I liked. I read the corus to the class to stunned silence and got a A for it. Who would have known I'd get my own purple heart at 26 years old.

    The guitar and drums are SICK in this song. Definitely one of their best.

    If you like this watch this live in concert and see the crazy stage light show! You will feel the tru essence of this very POWERFUL. Metallica has always been my favorite METAL band and they are the KINGS of transitions in the songs! Awesome musicians!

    Great react. The song is not necessarily about war but about the reality of a person who has no legs, arms, sight, smell, hearing. A true trapped consciousness in limbo.
