Lyrics:
I can't remember anything
Can't tell if this is true or dream
Deep down inside I feel to scream
This terrible silence stops me
Now that the war is through with me
I'm waking up, I cannot see
That there is not much left of me
Nothing is real but pain now
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please, God, wake me
Back in the womb it's much
too real
In pumps life that I must feel
But can't look forward to reveal
Look to the time when I'll live
Fed through the tube that sticks in me
Just like a wartime novelty
Tied to machines that make me be
Cut this life off from me
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please, God, wake me
Now the world is gone, I'm just one
Oh God, help me
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please, God, help me
Darkness imprisoning me
All that I see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body my holding cell
Landmine has taken my sight
Taken my speech
Taken my hearing
Taken my arms
Taken my legs
Taken my soul
Left me with life in hell

Eb tuning is just pure beauty
hell yeah I agree at 1000%
Martian Gamer, you have 66 likes. I don’t have to tell you what that means.
Now 99 likes, turn it and you got 66 again. Now i have destroyed it by giving it another like
Metallica plays everything in eb tuning except for Sad But True
@@heavymetal9749 the god that failed, the thing that should not be, all nightmare long, and i believe a couple others
This sounds even more haunting than the original.
that’s why they should of done it in good ole Eb
@@JacksonGuitarsPlayer03 exactly
0:26 the open g string ringing sounds so good in any tuning
And it's only the g string that does it. I don't know why and how.
Now imagine the entire album in Eb tuning...
Basically their concerts
Gg the RECORDING. The whole recording (THIS ALBUM) in Eb. Wouldn’t sound like their concerts because of this album sound. Their tones.
@@JacksonGuitarsPlayer03 I love their live clean tone wayyy more than the studio one the live one sounds really snappy that the best I can describe it check out One live in Kentucky 2019 I think
@@landonboyd6630 I watched probably all Metallica videos on here bud
I love this... with or without Jason's bass, I love that Eb tuning gives the clean part of the song more emotion.
... And renders the breakdown even more powerful
I've always felt that bands from this era should down tune as they get older to compensate for their singers voices getting deeper. Also so that they don't strain their voice or something.
In most cases it sounds better as well, at least in my opinion.
... But what about the Drop-C players from this era? (if there were any at all) how low would they have to go? Deepest tuning I know of is Drop-A... Best guess is Drop-B which is really deep...
(overthinking music, yeah!)
1337million Well, Drop-G is possible for a 6-string guitar, just ask Dimebag Darrell. If you want to go lower, you can find Meshuggah playing in F (the standard tuning for an 8-string guitar is F#, so they play a half-step down).
Jack Daniels 7 string tuning or lower i've played in (For metal): B standard - Drop A - Bb - A standart - Drop G - Ab - G standard - Drop F# - Gb - F# standard - Drop E - F#b - E standard (a hole octave down)
And then E / B / D / A / D / G / B / E
Metallica already does that. I saw 'Tallica back on January 22, and this was how One sounded. Well, similar. It was faster and they sounded different, of course.
Metallica always downtune a half-step down live.
Metallica play in eb tuning since 1995
Well, on Death Magnetic and Hardwired they played in E standard. They also did Drop C for St. Anger
live.
James sounds like he has balls that weigh 5 lbs each
The solo sounds soooooooo much better in Eb
Agree
the song as whole sounds better in e flat imo
I wish that Metallica recorded everything they did in Eb. So much fuller, heavier, and even more beautiful than standard E
I sometimes say screw Standard E a half step down from you sounds better.
This sounds like it's live
Zach Attack I think it’s cuz they use this tuning when they play live now
Yeh they use this tuning to match James’s voice now
@@thedvondud181 saw Iron Maiden live. Still E Standard tuning which is crazy considering how old Dickinson is.
@@yugoslavian6641 doesnt he naturally sing in a higher key than james though? and i dont think hheever went through voice issues
This is the tuning they Used on the Symphony & Metallica (S&M) album, and in subsequent shows
Euphoric feeling begins at 1:30.
Sorry to say it but, Eb should be the original version.
LPwithManu are you sorry? dude, you are actually right! this version is so much better!!
Sounds more melodic
Don't be sorry, I mean, that's why we're all here, in my opinion, this version is much more beatiful and heavier
@@TemTem_79 Are you all crazy?? Original is original. How can you say it's better??
@@madmax0188 Because thats how opinions work, we think that this sounds better!
One but metallica is depressed and drinks even more
One but is alcoholica era and they use their (actual) live tunning
2:57
I rather say, "Cut this shit off from me."
+Metalhead1997 James always says "cut this shit off from me" during live performances lol.
+Metalhead1997 through the what? What is that
He was saying that back before Through the Never
Lars drums so well in Eb.
This is just heavenly
Thank you for making this. I think it's cool to here any song a half step down.
Nakattack yeah I agree I'm
It sounds so deep and beautiful
Walter

This is what it was tuned to in Through The Never.
Yes, they have played in Eb live for a while now.
MilitaryKid2012 it's been tuned like this since 1994
... -.- I said they have played this song in Eb tuning since 1994 because after the black album tour Metallica tuned everything down live because of James's voice... And no i did not say that one came out in 1994, One came out in 1988 on the album ...And Justice For All
+Metalhead1997 1988
+StopMotionMetal Norway I think they tuned it down in '95, not '94
This is masterpiece even with eb tuning
It hits different, in a good way.
This is how they play it live now but with no bass (overused pun, I know), better production, a killer Lars and the best voice that Hetfield has ever had.
Fun fact, the ...And Justice for All album is actually tuned in-between E and E#. Ever try a jam along and it just doesn't sound like it's perfectly in tune? That's why, you have to tune the guitar about 5 cents sharp. Same thing with Master of Puppets
Absolutely Amazing!!!!!!
Awesome!
4:36 SLAAAAYYYYYYYEEEEEERRRRRRR!!!!!
Put it at 2x speed and then we have a deal.
Uhh no
Thanks for the video! I like it very much. :DD
The breakdown sounds brutal as fuck in Eb
bOne(r) anyone?
ruclips.net/user/gay
BlackLion_11 no u
YEAYEAAAHH
*Lars drumming out of tempo*
🤣
this is way more heavenly!
3:52 CHUG CHUG CHUG CHUG CHUG CHUG CHUG CHUG
Just a littles down from STANDARD TUNING, sounds so fucking good.
they've played a half step down live for almost 20 years now.
It is wierd listening to the solo played correctly eith this tuning
Jajajajaajajja
😂
2nd verse: ending original cut this life off from me.
Live version: cut this shit out from me.
Sound way far deeper and darker, excellent.
Metallica since the black album has recorded songs in E flat tuning, and pitches them up to E natural for the album.
thats a myth
When they play it live everything is tuned to a half step except for Sad But True
HEAVY METAL not rlly true. Songs from st anger are in drop c and the songs from load and reload era was recorded in Eb and now played in d standard I believe
The Thing That Should Not Be is in C# Standard tho
Metallica your the best.
I think metallica always play half step down tuning in live concerts.the best example to see is at the big four show live in Sofia
not always but they have used it for a long time.
minecraftklo since Load album exactly...
Since 1995, while they made Load and ReLoad
The gunshots in Eb is breath taking
Literally breath taking
I like James’s current voice better than 20+ years ago. It’s so soft yet so heavy, it brings so much power and emotion I love it
You're insane
same here his voice is better than ever
The "Children of Bodom" cover XD
amazing! can u do Welcome Home(Sanitarium) in Eb?
He already did ruclips.net/video/ZcSH4fAkHLk/видео.html.
Bands that play almost exclusively in Eb include KISS, GNR, and AIC.
a lot of classic metallica songs should honestly be half step down. this version sounds wayyyyy more sad
5:45
@Jensiron2 Hey man i have one more request this is my last one....for now haha. Can you do ...and justice for all in Eb?
3:52 wow
AKA, the tuning we’re used to hearing when Metallica plays it live.
Can u please upload Master of Puppets in eb tuning?
The guitars after a while, tho
I have a friendly request. I have looked through everything and haven't seen The Thing That Should Not Be in E flat tuning (Eb tuning). Could you make a version of that song in Eb tuning for me? Please and thank you!
late response but the thing that should not be is in D, not E
If u speed up the last couple minutes, it references the movie Through The Never's live version. I like this one better.
you're not wrong actually, they sped this song up a lot for that performance
Why DID they speed up the ending?
@@vincentmacefephase2718 idk, i kinda like it. it kinda brings variation into it. and they do this for a lot of songs like master of puppets, creeping death, spit out the bone, and others too
And Ride the lighting. The middle of the song though.
@@vincentmacefephase2718 cause Lars can't keep time for shit
The live version of it.
more like almost 15 years actually
This is way to heavy for a Metallica song but LOVE IT!!!!! 🤩🤩 (but one is the heaviest Metallica song so....yea)Edit I just heard the solo and this is my new favorite song
@Jensiron2 Ha sweet man!
What program used to this edited song?
Edy Rocker Maybe Audacity.
Come on, admit that you’re here only for this 4:35!
I haven't seen an album version of The Thing.. in Eb tuning, could you make version of it for me?
That’s a half step up if I’m correct
I can't remember anything
Can't tell if this is true or dream
Deep down inside I feel to scream
This terrible silence stops me
Now that the war is through with me
I'm waking up, I cannot see
That there's not much left of me
Nothing is real but pain now
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please, God, wake me
Back in the womb it's much too real
In pumps life that I must feel
But can't look forward to reveal
Look to the time when I'll live
Fed through the tube that sticks in me
Just like a wartime novelty
Tied to machines that make me be
Cut this life off from me
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please, God, wake me
Now the world is gone, I'm just one
Oh God, help me
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please, God, help me
Darkness
Imprisoning me
All that I see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body my holding cell
Landmine
Has taken my sight
Taken my speech
Taken my hearing
Taken my arms
Taken my legs
Taken my soul
Left me with life in hell
It sounds like James voice from black album
Why do Metallica songs sound so much better in eb? especially the ballads
Is this the live tuning?
Raffo ye
How old was James Hetfield when this song was completed?
In And Justice For All he have 26 our 24 years old...
25. he was born in 1963, this song and the album came out in 1988
@@_iridica_ I’m pretty sure the song was in the works before 88
He was like 24- 26 when this album came out
3:13
Bro can you do smoke on the water by deep purple eb tuning
no
@@ikilledmytoe8361 I have no idea why that response made me laugh so hard
Dead
You mean "The shitty 0 3 5 overplayed song"
Music like this is no longer appreciated, now its all "I'm a boss ass bitch bitch bitch bitch" and no meaning at all. The only bands that have survived this epidemic are the ones that formed in the 80's, like metallica, megadeth and so on. Its pretty sad.
a7x is pretty dope
Sean Lindholm not a big fan of them, I do appreciate Zacky vengeance playing lefty tho, I find that pretty cool.
I agree. 90s pop was kind of like the brian adams stuff. It had meaning.
Or maybe stop listening to Radio music dumbass
Quinn Scholes very, rock and grunge is dying
@Jensiron2 So whens that video coming man?
This comment is so old
To tell you this they tuned down The Thing That Should Be back in the late 80's til 96 when they played all the songs back in 1996 just saying.
Honestly in Eb format???
Fancy Slayer passionate of a lot of their music and loads of Slayer is e flat played
Does Metallica know that you took audio of them playing live and posted it on RUclips?
lol
who cares lol
It sounds better tuned down to me. It compensates for the void of bass in the mix......
If they would have recorded faster and in Eb that would have been good.
Sounds like the live version kind of.
Metallica on live
even guns are in Eb tuning
is it really true that they play a half step down in concerts?
Yeah cause James' voice would be shattered if he tried to sing high
I still can't hear bass
Now let's get someone to due the English!
User6327, Lel.
due math, lol.
'almost 15 years' means some thing like 13 or 14 years. IF 96 was the first year that they played live in Eb tuning, than that would be 17 years ago. therefore almost 20 years is far more accurate than almost 15 years.
there, i due'd the math for you.
what
@@Jeb4100 I honestly have no idea, I might have been drunk for this.
go down to low g tuning
People just don't appreciate good music like this anymore. Shame... Now music all about "twerking" and partying and getting drunk and other bullshit like that which does not matter.
Thats an overexaggeration, and you're an idiot for not being more open minded
also, you do realize all that "twerking, partying, and getting drunk" was happening way before modern music, right?
Big 'Ol Dingus not so much twerking but that other stuff yeah. I can say I was open minded and gave rap a chance and when I compared it to music of the old days, this persons right, it’s no competition. Rock/Metal from the 20th century is the absolute best
I don’t agree with comments like these. You’re not taking survivorship bias into account - older art has the benefit of being filtered and curated by the test of time. Of course it’s going to seem better than today’s popular music, which we’re consuming in real time. Popular music in the 80’s was also about sex, drugs, partying, and related bullshit, and there is in fact modern rap and hip hop that is thoughtful (Kendrick Lamar’s To Pimp a Butterfly comes to mind)
I down pitch (a half tone) this shit since 1995 using my Sega Saturn pitch control...
Wait this isn’t 432?
(Please this is a joke don’t rip me apart for this)
Lars could be a lot faster
Next time insert hetfeild live vocals
i really don't know what you're trying to communicate.
I actually like this version better than the original one, it kinda feels a bit more darker
no
Still no bass
Wait, what?
Who’s here because they too lazy to tune their guitar
*raises hand*
Earth is flat..
just like your mom
@Music Fan276 Because it was epic
Ben Shapiro the roast is high..🙌
Jesus christ is coming repent choose him today he loves you
This shit is BIG FRIOOOOO in half step
A la verga.
