    Understand this, when us old metal heads see the younger generation dig into and enjoy the music of our youth, it brings such a big smile to our faces. For that, I say thank you.

    7:35 "what happened to the original plan?" That literally sums up the entire premise and point of view in this song. That feeling you got in that moment, THAT is what this song is all about. Think of the layout as the slow groggy waking up from the anesthesia, awake but blind, no memory of how you got there, feeling only the tubes in every hole and every vein. You start to remember things a bit faster and at 7:35, that confusion about your life in that moment happens as everything floods back. While you rock out to the rest of the song, the One is paralyzed while feeling that exploding anger and pain. And just wants to die, while you are happy to have lived through that glorious music. Hope you had a good Memorial Day.

    Your comments about feeling the song on the inside, without hearing any words, is actually really apt. You know that mainline rock music is based on blues, and that metal is based largely on classical... think Beethoven, Mozart, etc. So the instrumentals are designed to evoke certain emotions, the same way they did it in the 18th and 19th centuries. Genius is the right word. These guys are masterful composers.

    This song IMO is one of the deepest and most memorable pieces of music I can think of, especially if you have seen the video and known the story it tells it is deep and dark. The musicianship is IMO untouchable, Metallica at their absolute peak for me...this is an epic in both lyrical and musical levels. There is a reason this band is a legend, regardless of what came out before or after when a band writes a song of this caliber...

    JoJo, watch the official video! There's a jamming version which doesn't cut out the jam session at the end. You don't necessarily have to do a reaction to it (though it would be pretty dope) but you have to watch it to put the song in a greater context. It's a great music video and the visuals will blow you away. It might actually make you cry, just because of what's presented in it but it also shows the band performing the song. I think you'll really enjoy it. Can't go wrong with watching any Metallica music video, they put out amazing stuff! Keep up the good work, my friend. Great vibes!

    There's really nothing wrong with the video. It gives context for the song that sometimes the instruments may distract from. While that may sound blasphemous to Metal fans, it's true for this song. It's a very lyrically-driven song until the last few minutes, hence why they gave this song their first music video and bought the rights to the movie adaptation of the book Johnny Got His Gun which the song is based off of.
    To put it shortly, it's about a man who goes to fight in World War I only to get blown up by a landmine and losing all of hi limbs, sight, and hearing. All he can do is feel and all he feels is pain. He's stuck in a hospital bed with no purpose to live at this point and he tries to get the doctors to put him out of his misery so he doesn't have to live the rest of his life as an armless, legless, deaf and blind freak, but they refuse.
