5:06 literally saved my life from suicide I can’t explain it but this instrumental was telling me to fight through everything with everything, and I will over come my hardships, there’s no way of me explaining it, this whole song saved my life thank you Metallica for everything
Brother live, no one wants you dead specially Metallica who want you to listen. Just start meditation , walk around water don't live according to what you feel , I fought in Afghanistan from 2002- 2005, suicide demon sent to kill us they grew stronger every time someone did. Need to fight the cycle help stop people Brother there is more to suicide than just thoughts and feelings so you not alone in this battle. Love you God bless you and your future.
At 55 seconds, it took me back to my high school years.I used to listen to it while coming home from school with my Sony walkman wm fx 123....My teenage rebellions, my fights, my girlfriends, my friends who died, my separations, my losses, everything flashed before my eyes like a film strip.
I absolutely love everything about this song. The words are extremely moving, and the music is absolutely top notch from top to bottom! Not only the best Metallica song ever, but one of the best songs period. I have been listening to this song multiple times per week for like 10 years and not one bit tired of it!
Such a beautiful, passional and emotive outro solo. It's amazing how a melody can make you feel the emotions that the author of the song has in mind as the emotions that represent the song.
Anyone who doesn't like this music just doesn't listen to the music itself. They pre-judge this band. This was the first chart done by Metallica that my son played for me and I was hooked for life. They are AWESOME musicians and no matter what anyone thinks of their lifestyle or anything else - you can't possibly deny they have T- A - L - E - N - T.
LST Magnus That’s my favorite piece of music of all time. It can be either happy or sad, and that’s what makes it so beautiful. I love that acoustic part so much that I’m getting a music staff with the music notes to that part tattooed on my left forearm.
+James Concepcion They are the very best band i have ever seen live. I have seen them 13 times over the years and they have never let me down. I go to at least 20 or 30 shows a year and have seen many many bands that kick ass but aside from Zepplin getting the original lineup, (including dead) or Jimi or SRV( also coming back from beyond) No one i have seen can touch Metallica live. I have seen everyone from Korn to Kiss to System of a Down and Tool and while they are all great shows respectively, Metallica are just better at it.
Life, it seems, will fade away Drifting further every day Getting lost within myself Nothing matters, no one else I have lost the will to live Simply nothing more to give There is nothing more for me I need the end to set me free Things not what they used to be Missing one inside of me Deathly lost, this can't be real Cannot stand this hell I feel Emptiness is filling me To the point of agony Growing darkness taking dawn I was me, but now he's gone No one but me can save myself, but it's too late Now I can't think, think why I should even try Yesterday seems as though it never existed Death greets me warm, now I will just say goodbye
Sometimes the instrumental version just hits better. It's so well written as an instrumental piece and so beautifully played that I'd rather leave James' vocals for other songs.
Same here,40's,ALWAYS loved Metallica.Especially Master Of Puppets.Ppl hear my music when I'm cleaning or whatever I'm doing-theyre like "Uhhh....wth are you listening to?Aren't you a bit too oldfor that?"LOL,their loss.(Tho I've converted some:-)
thank you ! the instrumental version of this song is intensly beautiful. I listened to this song alot in the darkest time of my llife and somehow it pulled me out of my self
I'm really happy to be able to play this song, start to finish. It's a lot of fun and with how practice makes perfect, I can entertain myself with this amazing song. Still can't believe that some kids in their very very early 20s wrote this masterpiece alongside so many other amazing, timeless pieces. God bless all of their souls and of course, R.I.P Cliff.
Fade to Black's solo is just so powerful. That climbing progression just makes the song feel so *final*. It really should have been the last song on the album.
When was this version of this song released? The album cut has the ending fading out during the solo, while in this instrumental version they played straight out through to the end, the same way they play it live. Just wondering, is this a cover? Or some rare Metallica track that was played around with or something?
I’m also curious, parts definitely sound slightly different than the studio album. I think it’s an alternate recording. I prefer the fade out personally
1) go to youtube 2) put This Instrumental(Fade to Black) 3)Now open a new window and repeat step 1 4)search "thunderstorm sound 5)..now it truly feels like the album ...riding the lighting(hope you like)
song let me know about 18years old that life a bitch & I'm not the only one out here feeling like there is nothing left. I turn 50 this year. THANKS METALLICA
freakin a man.. i can't get enought of this song.. i luv singing along to it and playin every part in my head.(cuz i can't play it for reals)... lol.. Dude, u got this on mp3 that u could share???
Awesome song ! I enjoy studio version everytime, but i've to say Instrumental version have something different, maybe James's voice missing have more deppressive aspect ! And special mention to Nocturnal depression, who've use final part for one of their song !
Life it seems to fade away Drifting further everyday Getting lost within myself Nothing matters no one else I have lost the will to live Simply nothing more to give There is nothing more for me Need the end to set me free Things not what they used to be Missing one inside of me Deathly loss this can't be real Cannot stand this hell I feel Emptiness is filling me To the point of agony Growing darkness taking dawn I was me but now, he's gone No one but me can save myself, but its too late Now I can't think, think why I should even try Yesterday seems as though it never existed Death greets me warm, now I will just say goodbye Goodbye

One of the best songs of all time. If not the best.
thats totally the best song
drivendown84
My favorite song
My favorite song
It's the best!
This is the best song ever. No question
The first 2 min is some of the best god damn music I’ve ever heard . I don’t even like rock music but those first 2 min put me in a trance
Such a beautiful, passional and emotive outro solo. It's amazing how a melody can make you feel the emotions that the author of the song has in mind as the emotions that represent the song.

No other metal band will ever be able to use acoustic or harmonized playing like metalica the solo is mindblowing
Iron maiden
Pantera
I hope so more inspiring things
@@arvindshastry1178 not even close
that guitar riff 3:56 is SOOO SICK and the whole song like the lyrics and everything about it is soooosososoooo lit
The acoustic guitar at 0:55 gets me everytime
its my favorite part in the song
Fuck dude
That craps hard to take in
LST Magnus That’s my favorite piece of music of all time. It can be either happy or sad, and that’s what makes it so beautiful. I love that acoustic part so much that I’m getting a music staff with the music notes to that part tattooed on my left forearm.
Me toooo
I can put this on repeat and just listen to it over and over. The intro might be one of the best intros to any song ever.
3:57 still gives me chills to this day
++
That ending from 5:00 on is just so sick..I cant even imagine what it would be like to be at a Metallica concert..its gotta be crazy.
+James Concepcion In today's day and age? Shit
+Florian Lindgren does 1989 sound better?
+ChallBoy13 by a mile
+James Concepcion Really fucking loud but so worth it! \m/ They are awesome live!

Life, it seems, will fade away
Drifting further every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters, no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
I need the end to set me free
Things not what they used to be
Missing one inside of me
Deathly lost, this can't be real
Cannot stand this hell I feel
Emptiness is filling me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me, but now he's gone
No one but me can save myself, but it's too late
Now I can't think, think why I should even try
Yesterday seems as though it never existed
Death greets me warm, now I will just say goodbye
There's a reason why this is an instrumental, bud.
+David Chacon or maybe just maybe... people want to sing it? You know like a kareoke?
+g0TdAmNiT then they could look up a lyric video with the song playing in the background
came here to escape james cringy singing but thanks i guess
@@deadlock1 the only thing cringe here is you.
Sometimes the instrumental version just hits better.
It's so well written as an instrumental piece and so beautifully played that I'd rather leave James' vocals for other songs.
this is one of the best instrumental versions of Fade to Black i have ever heard
Something about the acoustic solo is so hypnotizing.
Amazing quality on the guitar solo dude!
A friend of mine is practicing this. He tells me its difficult, and now I can tell why. Wish him luck!
+cCc/MilkDealer/cCC 51 Solo is fucking with me,why does he needs to sweep!?
+Felix Gerecke ummmm kirk cant sweep...... he even said so
+Minerva Mink its actually not hard at all its easy. the solo at the end is harder but i can handle it.
there's no sweep picking
The Mink
3:57 and on, the greatest sounds to ever come out of an instrument
sometimes I just listen to the instrumental. the bridge is probably my favorite riff of all time.
Yeah same man
This makes me think of all the time I spent with my grandparents before they both passed :(
Thanks God for Metallica. This music makes me feel alive.
I resort to this song whenever I am feeling down. Can’t explain it.. it just works 🔥
I know what you mean
I heard this one a while ago, but didn't really like the lyrics, but was in awe with the music. Nice to listen to this instrumental piece!
Metallica music. Dont even need lyrics, just listening to the pure music is enough to set you free from your chains
Orion is a great one and it’s 8 mins long
Alas a true instrumental without a guitar mimicking lyrics. Thank you
i am so glad i found these i love just the jams iv bin a Metallica fan sense the mid 80s and i wont stop naw that im in my 40s
Same here,40's,ALWAYS loved Metallica.Especially Master Of Puppets.Ppl hear my music when I'm cleaning or whatever I'm doing-theyre like "Uhhh....wth are you listening to?Aren't you a bit too oldfor that?"LOL,their loss.(Tho I've converted some:-)
james has always been such a genious... Amazing talent
without a doubt metallica's best song
doodoo true, totally true
I love this song, 2!ND favorite only to creeping death
yes
there is only ONE best song
@@supermax7208 i see what u did there
This song brings me happiness on my darkest days, Everytime.
The bass sounds so great with the final solo 🎸🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I think Beethoven would approve of this. :)
This song relax better than meditate music :)
How 2:01 hits is just majestic
thank you ! the instrumental version of this song is intensly beautiful. I listened to this song alot in the darkest time of my llife and somehow it pulled me out of my self
This was the song that got me into metallica, it will always have a special place in my heart
This is simply the greates song off of Ride The Lightning in my opinion even without James Hetfield's vocals this song still kicks ass.
It's a toss up between this and Call of Ktulu.
Best song ever. Period.
Metallica has been so inspirational for me to make music thank you guys for bein badass!!!!
I'm really happy to be able to play this song, start to finish. It's a lot of fun and with how practice makes perfect, I can entertain myself with this amazing song. Still can't believe that some kids in their very very early 20s wrote this masterpiece alongside so many other amazing, timeless pieces. God bless all of their souls and of course, R.I.P Cliff.
I forgot this song had lyrics when i was half-way through, thanks for posting man.
That intro gets me every time... Just got to know how to play it on the guitar.
Bekosistem'li kardeşim sende hoşgeldin. :D
I sure had fun with your vids, man! Thanks for posting!!
0:00 and on, the greatest sounds to ever come out of an instrument.
05:06 That riff gives me chills! So fucking beautiful....
Fade to Black's solo is just so powerful. That climbing progression just makes the song feel so *final*. It really should have been the last song on the album.
If you have no hope and think of death, listen to this song and you won't want to die just to listen to this masterpiece one more day.
starting around 5:10, I feel like could HULK OUT
Joe Antonelli nothing makes for heavier deadlifts
Hit them weights and go gnar gnar Binks when that part goes in.
Brilliant, man! It sounds exactly like the original album recording! Brilliant!
The studio version of this song will always be the best for me, especially the main riff.
high quality of art ... so magnificent and awesome ...thumbs up metallica ..yet ..ur band still great among metal band
Masterpiece
Metallica 4 Life! Awesome gear Necrommancer.

This Song.. I can't get off my head! It reminds me of someone a little too much.. Ugh. :\
4:43 to the end is my favorite and always gets me pumped up
I played this at my grandmas funeral, my dad cried because this song reminded him of growing up while my grandma raised him.
you get sent straight to hell if you stop the music once you start listening to it. Damn! thats good music!
2016 yoo. still there!!! shred
is it just me or after 0:56 the tune is just so soothing?
It really is! It's a beautiful acoustic solo, it gets me emotional even. Definitely one of my favorite parts about this song.
So many great stuffs in this channel sadly it has been abandoned, forgotten...
Metallica videos don`t need a dislike button..youtube must fix this!

I used to have this on loop when TBC first came out and I was levelling a drenai shaman. fucking simple times in high school. take me back.

Life it seems to fade away
Drifting further everyday
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free
Things not what they used to be
Missing one inside of me
Deathly loss this can't be real
Cannot stand this hell I feel
Emptiness is filling me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me but now, he's gone
No one but me can save myself, but its too late
Now I can't think, think why I should even try
Yesterday seems as though it never existed
Death greets me warm, now I will just say goodbye
Goodbye
I love this :)
