      "needs exploring"? the chorus is I-V-vi-IV, aka the Axis progression, aka the most common pop progression ever. The i-VI-VII on the verse is neat though

    • @strohundso
      @strohundso 8 месяцев назад +3

      Although it's cleary the "...And Justice For All" sound, if you ask me. There is a famous mashup with the "Down Under" instrumental and James' vocals for "One", and I think this here is a reference to that, the other way around.

      @@dedeeprice6560 I know. It's partly true though. Dave Mustaine told that he left the band/was fired (this point's not really clear : Let's agree that we disagree, like they say). What's clear is that he wrote a great part of the guitar riffs, and asked the band not to use this material... which they did, with Kirk Hammett re-recording the riffs. Sad but true 🤘
