James said he wrote the song about being on the road and missing his girlfriend but that he wrote In a way lyrically so that everyone could find their own personal meaning in the song.
*It’s about
No he didnt🤦♂️🤔....
@@lemdrix8071 yes he did idiot, there's literally a shit load of interviews where he says it was the inspiration for the song. So instead of running your mouth use that same energy to look it up moron
@@lemdrix8071" Hetfield explained this song to Mojo magazine December 2008. Said the Metallica singer: "It's about being on the road, missing someone at home, but it was written in such a way, it connected with so many people, that it wasn't just about two people, it was about a connection with your higher power, lots of different things" but yea what does he know ..he wrote the damn thing smh
@@mr.smithgnrsmith7808 you trying to correct a comment where according to you I was supposed to type " he said he wrote the song *its about being on the road"...damn schools have failed smh. If I would of wrote..he said it's about being..then it would of been how its used.
Elton John did an interview a week or so ago and said this was one of the best songs ever written. He made James Hetfield tear up. Check it out! 😀
Who was the interview with, I'd love to watch :)
Howard Stern
@@jonnylumberjack6223 ruclips.net/video/wofWGD5TUxo/видео.html
Oh cool! I missed that.
thanks for the heads up!
When Elton John said this was “one of the best songs ever written” and James teared up….I teared up
A lot of “old school” fans like myself didn’t appreciate this song for what it is when it first came out…now I play it on my guitar at least once a week 🤘
Dude, you hit the nail on the head. I didn’t care much for it back in 91 or whenever it was, but holy crap, I have so much appreciation for this song now.
Metallica fans were dicks when they were young lol
Same play it on my guitar constantly.
Metal heads and Metallica fans absolutely love all the hard and heavy songs by them and thought that this song was, to quote Beavis and Butthead "wussy music." As a young Metallica fan who was getting into their music at the time, I actually loved the song because it was just deep, emotional, and very real. It gave a glimpse into what this band was really thinking and feeling at the time the song was written. It's still one of my favorite Metallica songs to this day, and it always will be. 🤘
Elton John gave this praise as one of the best songs ever written. That’s high praise. Also, James played all the guitar, including the solo, cuz Kirk didn’t have time to learn it.
I saw and heard that. James looked like he'd been punched.
That was the last thing in the world he ever expected.....having a musical giant like Elton John say that this song was perfection.
@@Jericho363 Search for "Metallica", "Howard Stern" and "Elton John" here on RUclips. Unfortunately, they chopped up the appearance into small segments so it might take a few tries to catch the right one.
They're being interviewed about the Black Album's 30th anniversary and the "Black List" album that just came out.
typical Kirk
@@Jericho363 Same here. I think either Load or Re-Load might have been the last album I've purchased from them. My allegiance was torn when Jason quit. I miss the old days.
I'd heard that James had damaged his voice somehow (doing a cover of something? I guess he was warned NOT to?) so his vocals are different now. No more "growling" 😐.
Not sure if the story has any validity to it.....but I read it on the internet so it MUST be true.
@@deveroth8871 He wrote the Sandman riff than made them each a few hundred mil so they probably forgive him
These are the nicest rock musicians you will ever meet just class acts all of them
This was the first song I learned to play without a guitar pick.. ☺️ so many memories
This is my favorite Metallica song. I was listening to it when my sister told me my Dad died. I think of my Dad when I hear this song. I was 27 when I met my Dad, and didn't have him in my life very long. That was more than 30 years ago,and it still feels like yesterday.
“Nothing Else Matters” by the San Francisco-based heavy metal band Metallica, was a global smash in the summer of 1992, reaching the top 40 in 15 countries. It was a #1 hit in both Denmark and Poland, and a top 10 hit in Australia, Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, England, and America. And the man who penned the words and music - Metallica’s lead singer and guitarist James Hetfield - never intended for anyone to hear it but himself. It started with a phone conversation.
He explains, “We were on the road in 1990. After a show one night, I was missing my girlfriend something awful, so I called her up from the hotel room. Suddenly it was like she was standing right next to me. Cradling the receiver between my left ear and shoulder, I picked up a pen and wrote down on the hotel stationary, ‘So close, no matter how far.’ She lived 200 miles away, but it was as if she were in the same room. It began as nothing more than a dedication to her.
But more words started flowing forth as I started thinking about our fans everywhere and how nothing else mattered to us but putting on the greatest show we could each night. Some of them are hard workers who don’t make a lot of money and they can save up for weeks or even months to come see us play - so it’s a disservice to do anything but our absolute best. By the time we said our goodbyes, I had the idea for the rest of the song in my head. I wrote them down later because I wanted to concentrate on talking to her first and foremost.
James continued, “About this time, I had been taking classical guitar lessons, so I started doing some picking in the room and came up with an intro that night. However, if you love doing something, sometimes you just do it for yourself because it makes you feel happy inside. At the time, I had no ideas of ever playing it for anyone but myself. However, I was in the studio a short time later warming up before everyone else showed up, and I instinctively began playing the opening notes as a finger exercise - to limber them up a bit. When Lars Ulrich walked in. He said “James, what is that? It’s amazing!!.’ So, I kind of had to let the cat out of the bag. Lars asked me if I had words and I showed him. He said ‘we must record this’ - and brought the other guys in and they all agreed right then and there to do it.
In an interview with Songfacts, Hetfield said, “So, it started out as kind of a dedication to my girlfriend, and then to our fans. But as I kept writing words, I realized it was becoming a song about living for a higher power. What we do daily and why we do it. What or who keeps us going. For some people nothing else matters but their mates or their kids or careers. For other it’s service to their country. Regardless, it’s anything or anyone beyond self. After we recorded it and started playing it live, so many fans came up to us or wrote to us explaining how it connected with them in so many ways we could have never imagined. One person told us nothing else mattered but to get beyond his addiction to painkillers and how listening to the song kept inspiring him to keep battling it despite setbacks.
James finished with this, “After a concert in New York, I was invited to visit a Hells Angel’s clubhouse. They showed me a video they'd put together of one of the fallen brothers and his life, and it was all set to 'Nothing Else Matters’ playing in the background. Wow. This means a lot more than me missing my girlfriend right? This is brotherhood. The army could use this song. Anybody who lives for something or someone other than themselves can use it in whatever fashion they decide.”
Unfortunately, some fans thought “Nothing Else Matters” was a sell-out ballad just to get a hit as other groups such as Kiss have been accused of doing with “Beth”, but Hetfield’s story about the song’s inspiration tells us this is not true. Regardless, it has sold over 5 million copies worldwide since its release on 30 April 1992. it has also become a staple in the concert set list for Metallica, with it always being dedicated to the fans before the group starts playing it. They often finish it with a slow fade before launching into their heavier rocker “Enter Sandman.”

Jesus...words...words...words.
When did you make that up?
Then why did you read it? I didn't know there was a policy here limiting the number of words.
@@markbryant4932 i think what he means is blah blah blah blah blah.....humans only have a short attention span.....we switch off after about 40 words so basically you wasting alot of time......practice speaking less will help....
@@markbryant4932 What I meant was its a comment section not a blog.
When the album this song is on came out is was so underappreciated. Many of the fans (myself included) thought they'd gone soft. It wasn't until decades later that I realize the genius and beauty of songs like this. Will always be one of my favorite songs and favorite albums (self titled or "Black").
The Black album is probably one of my favorites by Metallica. I listened to it on repeat for months when I got it.
Their first live version with San-Francisco Orchestra is still my favorite version of this - The vocals are much more confident adding an aura of MATURITY to the song, while the orchestra adds the EPIC feel
this reaction is so cool. 😎 BJ got what the song was originally intened to say...and Asia got what the song eventually evolved into. nice! thanks for metallica! 🥰🙂
It's the connection between friends. You're so close together no matter how far away they are. It's the bond between true friends and nothing else matters!
As I am a member of a successful band... Everything becomes distorted after many months of touring and recording. Our families, private lives, and everything else sacred to us, becomes distant. And we strive to one day return home. Because Nothing else matters!
I really enjoy your content and the appreciation for music as a whole. Great work guys!
Great reaction video guys! The lead singer said he didn’t know how the other band members would react to it after he wrote it, but once they heard the demo of the song, they loved it and agreed it should be on the album...that’s what I call taking a chance...probably one of the best ballads I’ve ever heard...simple and yet powerful...musically and lyrically on point!
I simply love this video. It still piercing in my heart and soul.
this is one of Metallica's best
A masterpiece, worth listening to over and over again.
The ultimate song about living life the way you want and not givin af about anyone thinks.
This song is one of my favorites, definitely check out their recent interviews celebrating the Black Album. 🤟
Most people don't realize what amazing songs that rock and heavy metal bands write until they really listen to the lyrics! Love Metallica
Sad but true...
This has always been at the very top of my favorite songs 🎵 ❤
I really appreciate this reflection cause somehow this song is the one that portrays me in front of family and friends. I mean this song will be in my funeral for sure even if it’s not the last song y would like to get at that moment . And I know… 😏😏😏😏
Watching this has been an educational experience, bringing back old memories
I love this song. One of my favorite metallica songs. Like the headphones on and cranked.
The strings section of *_Nothing Else Matters_** and *_Disarm°_* are the two songs that got me to love a strings section in Rock and all its sub-genres.🎻
*being Metallica, °being The Smashing Pumpkins
I just like watching realness these folks are hyped and upbeat as soon as the song starts they get it and are mellow and humble love it
Saw them live 3 times once in the 80's ,then the 90's then 2003 they kicked ass every damn time yo..literally amazing n sound exactly like this live n bombass performers yo..react to skme they old live ishhh mind blowing 🔥🔥💯
My brother loved Metallica and heavy metal I was more of a new r&b rap '90s kid but I listen to a lot of old music from hearing it my parents in the car you know but let me tell you this song open a lot of minds that these guys that wear their hair long and and wear black t-shirts aren't all sad they just like to play this way and this song is beautiful
You should really check out "Mama Said" by Metallica, blew my mind when I first heard that song!
I'm pretty sure it's a love song that's what I've always thought and I've heard it a million times
This song was off there Black album. All the song's where great!! Love your breakdown of this song.
Thank you for doing my wedding song, guys. Much love ❤️
I don't know when Metallica was formed but they were popular in Finland and Sweden already in the early eighties. Probably more countries but there was no internet back then so no one knew until you saw them live and saw the size of the crowd. But this album made them mega stars which they absolutely deserved.
this song paved the way for future guitarists. way ahead of its time
By far my all time favorite
All you need in life is somebody who trust you and you can trust loyalty
I've always taken this song, lyrically, as a relationship between two people.
when it comes to this song everyone is going to have different points of views . the way I see is like, trust and believe in yourself even when people don't care about what you do or say and when people don't care about the game you play meaning what you're bringing to the table then he says but I know and that's all it matters (Nothing Else Matters) , that's how I always view the lyrics of this song since I first heard it in the early 90's
This is one of my fave love songs.
wow you guys are blowin up! over 100k now, you'll start climbing even faster. wish you both nothing but success and happiness. keep up the grind you're almost there
He said FOREVER TRUST IN WHO YOU ARE you dig 💯
I just listened to this song this yesteday and today y'all doing a great reaction to it
“Forever TRUST in who you are…” and NOTHING else matters.
U guys are witnessing pure adulterated talent. The best of there genra as well as others. They have the ability to make u feel a certain way. Also this particular song is 1 of the top 20 greatest songs ever written. All the way from 83 in the beginning til 91. The black album. Is like Def Leppard so Hysteria not a bad song on ither albulm..this 1 and Master of Puppets are just pure perfection
Listening first time to “Nothing Else Matters” 😳 life is very strange indeed 😅 keep more Metallica coming guyzzz 🔥 you’re the best 😉
Best wedding song EVER!!!
Classic! Been waiting for this one. 🎸🔥
This is a love song, and nothing else matters.
I'm loving y'alls vibe. You make me laugh with you, I'm nodding along when you're talking, and Asia, damn girl, you got the deepest insights and they're accurate. I had a rough morning but after watching y'alls channel for a while, I'm feeling uplifted and more positive about my day.
This song was released in like 1991. 31 years ago... and it's lyrics are so timeless.
I always took this song as - it's you, me, us on the inside is what matters . Our feelings our thoughts , what's important to us is what matters...regardless who's around us. 🤔 I'm probably wrong though haha
One of my very best recalls from the past. Great Indepth reaction as always.
Good analysis BJ!!! 💪🏼 🤘🏼
I am a 66 year old rocker from way back and never really cared for the fast metal , just see how fast we can play stuff. Haveing said that when they wrote this and the whole Black album i gained much respect for them this is a masterpiece
People don't make fast metal just for the sake of being fast..sorry you don't understand the feeling and art behind it
This is when the sucked
You guys are Awesome. One of the very best Metallica reaction ever. And I like how you explained it, it makes it even more deeper. Rock on!
Thanks guys!
You've landed on on of the most ICONIC recordings in metal history!
Elton John described it as genius....
How much higher praise can anyone get?
Lots of comments refer to James (Hetfield), and the absolute fear he had of sharing this with his mates.
METALLICA doesn't do songs about 'sentimentality'... but this song above ALL THEIR GENIUS will probably outlast the rest of their brilliant catalog.
They are THE Metal band and this track allowed them to compose a wider variety of themes with confidence that their fans will find value in their perspective.
Love this!!! Keep up the great reactions!!
I think celebrities, regardless of what they're famous for, music, movies, politics all want the fame and fortune that comes with being a celebrity. But, they also want the privacy of regular people like us. It is not only unreasonable to expect to have both, but it's impossible.
I told my kids if anything happened to me during surgery make sure to play this at my funeral😂 🤘🏾🎸
It's a spiritual, cultural thing. Nothing else matters. The government lies to you. People lie to you. Know who YOU are. That's all that matters! ❤❤❤❤❤
"i like this a lot" ... nice reaction
BJ you hit the nail on the head man! I like how you are now listening alittle more before the dreaded pause!
Bj you pretty much nailed it but it is what each person takes from it in their own life so live life your own way and NOTHING ELSE MATTERS
Real music has meaning for all. No wrong meaning.God bless you and yours from West Texas!
Metallica has a very diverse catalog, youll prob like the S&M stuff with the San Fran Orchestra
2007, on a June evening, at a party in a college, I danced to this song, hugging the most beautiful girl in the world... We have been together for 15 years, our two teenage children are in school, but we sometimes turn on and dance to this song..)
Found you guys through the Tom Macdonald reacts and staying for the Metallica reacts. Glad to see you guys doing this! Great work!!
Love your shirt Asia! Poetic justice! 💛
By far my favourite song they do.....I just really feel it.....Dave in Australia 🇦🇺 😢
My favorite song of ALL TIME.
James, the singer, actually wrote the song about an ex-girlfriend. He never wanted it on an album until Lars the drummer convinced him to put it on the Black ablum
One of the greastest rock songs ever without a doubt!!! So powerful and meaningful , a great song to listen to when you are feeling down❤
Great reaction guys! Sending you some 💘 😁
This song ( Instrumental ) is included in the Disney film " Jungle Cruse " .. It's absolutely Beautiful
This is my favourite Metallica song ❤
If I’m not mistaken this is his first recording after the accident. A pyro went off. I can’t remember what percentage got burnt but it was significant. They weren’t sure he’d play guitar or sing again.
Now you guys should do the one a few weeks ago by Miley Cyrus and Metallica. Its incredible!
Wow !! Bit of a classic .🎸🔥
love this song
Asia totally nailed this one.
One of their best ones but it will never dethrone "Sad but true".
great job guys!
my daughters wedding song. one of my favorites
Those are very wise words Asia
Just have to say you do a fair and honest reaction.Now I'm just dust on a boot but I would love you to have a look at Eivør - Falling Free (Live at the Old Theater in Torshavn) i have been a fan of this young lady for years.She is from the faroe islands.The Faroe Islands is a self-governing archipelago, part of the Kingdom of Denmark.Thank you both stay safe and all the best from England.
I love this song..there is also a cover by Franz Rythm Family Band (fathet and kids jamming) that i like. You can comment also other songs oc cranberies, the corrs, etc.
I am a Huge Iron Maiden fan - but THIS is my funeral song. It is sooooo beautiful. Oh i do like most of Metallicas music though.
This was amazing thank you, please check out " My Friend of Misery". The bass line intro is peaceful and worth checking out. Also "Buckethead" someone worth listening to.
Metallica is my favorite band and this is my favorite song. This is a totally personal song that James wrote. Lars talked him into recording it. Now it is one of the top classical songs of this generation.
Great song
I think your analysis is spot on about that song and what it's about, Mrs. Asia's conclusions and Britney Spears' example is just spot on. Metallica says here that nothing really matters than being yourself, otherwise you go crazy, do drugs, look for compensate what they steal from you.... I really think you hit the point of that song perfectly.
The meaning of nothing else matters is that you can’t let nobody put you down here the bad about you you are the king of your ship if you show your own destiny can’t nobody stop you but you as far as self inspiration Your own soul bride your own passion for your talents your love for your partner your love for your children and your lovely self because nothing else matters
Got to see them on their 1st world tour, When legendary bassist Cliff Burton was still alive. He actually gave me the last 1/2 of his heineken. This was before he actually became recognized as one of the best and i finished it off and threw away the bottle. of course even if I did, no one would believe me if I told them that Cliff gave it to me. Couldnt prove it.
This song takes me back to high school 😎
Awesome vid FAM
Just a heads up Chris Stapleton did a cover of this song just recently, it's amazing
RIP to Cliff Burton, you are loved & missed.🎸
I love Asia's take on this. She's correct on a lot. That's not what this particular song is about but we are all able to make our own opinion on a song. She's not wrong in her opinion.
The opinions below show the real meaning but she's not wrong.
I was 22 when the black album was released and I was a little bit disapointed that it wasn`t as straight forward as the four previous albums. But as time passed by I realized the black album was different but after all a masterpiece and maybe the album that influenced 90% of metal bands after that in one way or another.
Imagine being a kid being misunderstood and not fitting in the late 90s. This was everything for me!! Metallica was my go to my jam!!
