The lyrics of this song send a different vibe compared when the song is watched with official clip.. First of all album got out without clip but back then was not too much just lyrics on radio and plenty other trash heavy-metal bands wrote & played something similar i had this first on vinyl it sounds epic then on cassette-player.. so moving few years latter (cd- coming out) they decide to do a clip for it and throw it on MTv and after watching it, i really felt so much different associating all the lyrics with the clip, just how they intended to be (not how i imagined when i was hearing the song first time without the clip).. With the video this song hits much harder because you feel the pain & suffering like you are teleported right there, and then drums+guitars are like machine-guns are just so on point with the story and action from the clip..
I have those last few lyrics on the back of my only band shirt. absolutely chilling words that depict the horrors of warfare and the consequences on humans
No matter what you are going through it could always be worse!!! A land mine could take your sight take your speech take your hearing yourarms your legs so don’t ever give up on life.
I'm so jealous of you.. I wish I could go back in time and hear this song again for the first time. It completely blew my mind the first time I heard it back in the day. It was wonderful reliving that feeling through you. The solo in this song is my favorite solo in all of metal. The whole song is a masterpiece.
Love the videos! You should definitely check out Slipknot, some of their songs like Duality, The Devil In I, Dead Memories, Solway Firth, Vermillion, Nero Forte, Snuff, Psychosocial, Sulfur, Unsainted, etc have heavy messages in them, and the music videos are great. You should definitely check them out.
ONE is a masterpiece! A truly powerful song that not only shows Metallica's prowess for song writing, but also their mastery of their instruments. It anchors a catalog of music by them that is truly incredible. Now that you have absorbed the lyrics, give the official video a watch. The imagery provides even more emotion to those lyrics, as they come to life right in front of you with what is being shown. Also, it is really cool seeing them just jamming. You won't be disappointed.
“One” is a masterpiece. IMO the best song ever written, but at the least, the best metal song. What a joy to watch someone experience it for the first time. Kathryn if you ever get the chance to see them live, do NOT pass it up. Their music comes alive in a totally different way.
this song is based on a movie called "Johnny Got His Gun" - 1971 When they performed this at the Grammys they went from Metal kings to Metal gods! Oh and yes please please please please ORION!!!!
So glad you reacted to this song. Some people don't like reacting to the official video because they think it's distracting, but it really gives you a visual meaning of the song. In my opinion, it's the perfect metal song.
Trust me. When us as teens heard this...beauty, sadness and horror was hard to process. So usually we'd just headbang to the music and didn't focus as much on the lyrics. Some songs merited knowing the lyrics but back then it was about the music and how it made you feel.
Metallica is one of the few bands that have really good full LP albums. You could react to so many song from Metallica, not only the famous ones. Keep rocking!
This song is based on the movie Johnny Get Your Gun. The music video, which is MUST SEE, incorporates some of the movie into it. It helps you understand the song more.
Totally agree with your methodology of doing studio versions with lyrics. It's closer to how us "old timers" did it; with just the audio and the liner notes that often accompanied the album/CD. That said, you do need to see the music video to this one as it is phenomenal and expands on the story of the song. It contains clips from the movie that was based on the book that inspired this song. 👍🏽😎
Master of puppets, enter sandman, one, call of ktulu, Orion, fade to black, unforgiven, king nothing, no leaf clover. Some of my favorite Metallica songs.
Honestly, I'm glad you did the studio version with lyrics as your first listen through. Most people do the music video, and because there's a lot of talking and sound effects over the song in the music video, you can't quite hear everything quite as well. But now that you've listened to the studio version, checking out a live version is a good idea. One is definitely a top 10 Metallic song. I highly suggest reacting to Blackened and Harvester of Sorrow, which are both from the same album as One. Other great songs from them are The Four Horsemen, Fight Fire with Fire, Wherever I May Roam, Spit out the Bone, and Disposable Heroes. I'm digging your channel!!
Metal in its own right helps us to voice the emotions we hold back. Metallica is one of those few Metal groups that can evoke emotional turbulence with so much of their music. This track was the 7 steps all rolled into one.
IT'S OKAY TO LISTEN TO THE STUDIO VERSION THE FIRST TIME. I WOULDN'T SAY YOU SHOULD REACT TO THE LIFE VERSION BECAUSE THE BEST WAY TO UNDERSTAND THIS MASTERPIECE IS LISTENING AND WATCHING THE OFFICIAL VIDEO. YOU SHOULD WATCH IT, IT WILL BRING YOU ANOTHER PERSPECTIVE 🤘🏼🎶
Exactly. Sad thing about Metallica is that a lot of their amazing special songs don't really have the same punch and feel in the live version. The best example for that would be Fade To Black
The original video has parts of the movie, Johnny Got His Gun, from 1971 you will understand the song a lot more. I remember watching them in concert and that same night is when the video was released. It took like a week for or so till I finally saw the video on MTV, back then when they actually played videos on that channel.
My head bobs the same way when that machine-gun beat kicks in. I feel this song in my soul. I was a combat medic in the Army and saw firsthand the effect of war casualties.
In my opinion this is the best way to listen to this song. You can just listen to this master piece without getting confused by trying to keep up without the visual interference.
Completely 100% Agree...ONE is my all-time favorite song..period!! Even after all these decades of listening to it, I still get goosebumps EVERY SINGLE TIME...ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE!!
"Fed through the tube that sticks in me" "Can't tell if this is true or dream" I wrote an essay comparing this song and All Quiet on the Western Front for school. I am 15 years old, starting playing drums when I was 4, and mastered this song at 10.
When you get a chance, watch the music video. Even more emotional than the song by itself. This was their first ever music video released back in 88-89 (can't remember lol).
Well I can easily say this is by far and away the best reaction I have ever seen to this or any song/video. I was young when this came out and loved it then, still do today. Great off the charts reaction!!!!!!
I grew up with these guys in the San Francisco Bay Area. I must tell you, these guys are as good today as they were back in the day. If you get a chance, you must see them live. Totally worth every penny for the price of admission
@@KathrynLayneReacts Seriously. Listen to this version 2 or 3 more times to get the feel for it, then please react to the official video. It's an absolute necessity and this track will never be complete for you if the video gets skipped. Back in the day, they said they would never sell out, and never make a music video. Well, they made their first video with this track, and spruced it up a little to appease the die-hard fans who didn't want their favorite band to make a mainstream video. I'm one of those who hated that they made a vid, but this was a very good compromise.
Love your reaction to this song, it is as you said very beautifully done. By far their best song as far as composition and complexity goes, an absolute masterpiece of musical artwork. They performed this song LIVE at the 31sr Annual Grammy Awards in 1989, and the very next FRICKIN WON a Grammy Award for best metal performance. 25 years later in 2014 they returned to the Grammys to perform the song once again.
Your reaction to "One" earned you my subscribe hit...my introduction to you was a few minutes ago with one of my favourite Bands, Pearl Jam with my favourite song by them Black with maybe my favourite verses in a song ever....but the way you 'felt" THIS song 'One' is what moved me...this is a classic and the album came out when I was a teenager and really my first foray into Metal...I absolutely loved the way it moved you and you just reacted to the beautiful piece...more than the song I love that ANY music can make a person feel the way you felt is why music is so important to me and why being human in this time is so beautiful like this song and so many other we have yet to discover...Thank you for this reaction.
Its my 41st bday today 4th of march... No one around me remembered so my best part of the day was rockin one with u... Thank u , Old skool Metallica fan
"One", and the whole "...justice for all" album was my opener in the metal-world. I guess I was 14/15 years old, back in the days. Love Metal since then. Thank you for your great reaction to this masterpiece.
Finally someone reacting to the song itself and not the captions in the official video version. Thank you, and congratulations for knowing the best song ever
Imo. Is Metallica the perfect metal band. They don't give a fck what haters saying, they make there own thjing, and that's why i love them so much and to watch them again live in may at the third time. I hope you, that you react more to the Load/Reload stuff. It's just awesome. for example Bleeding me or The Outlaw Torn. \m/
Finally someone with the sense to listen to this masterpiece of a song that's not the video version,does my head when so many reaction channels react to this watching the video version and they all forgot about what it's about the music,all more bothered about the video itself instead and commont on that and get distracted by it.
So many of these reaction videos are from my childhood, early adulthood years. Imagine being around when this stuff came out. Having been in the Army now for almost 23 years, this song hits me differently. I've had friends or worked with people who resemble what is being talked about in this song. A guy I went to the board with for Sergeant lost his leg, as a Physical Therapy Tech, I worked with triple amputees and those who lost their sight. And other things.
My grand uncle was in the 1st world war. He survived wounded. Whole life traumatized. This song and 1916 by Motörhead are true anthems about the victims of the WW I.
Been listening to this for about 30 years...this is the first time I've noticed that the drums before the solos sounds like a heartbeat as if emphasizing all he could hear! Amazing song!
I love your Metallica reactions. You have full body reactions. You have the exitement to explore Metallica in a short time for what i have done in 40 years. I love it.
On the night of September 15 2001, while I was in liberty from the Marine Corps I slid down a 40' cliff and suffered a class 3 tramdic brain injury. After I spent two months at the a hospital in California, then I got life flighted up to a VA. I remember laying in the bed in the VA and this song was going through my head.
Perfect! Now u have heard the song, understand the meaning, now u are ready for the official video! Te official video is just too much to take in and hear the music, but now u can watch it, knowing the lyrics and really get ur feelings touched by the video! Trust me it is an experience all its own!
Interesting facts about the riffs and drums, Lars and James said in interviews they wanted to simulate gunfire bursts with it, you can hear it clearly at 7:51.
This song still makes me cry. I wasn't in a good mental place when it came out in 1988. Lucky to be here, today. That's about as far as I want to go into it.
Finally someone that listsens to the music and notices the lyrics without being distracted by the scenes of the official music video. +100 points for you dear !
Every time I listen to One it's like the first time. There are few songs on the planet that have that kind of power. Very few bands in history have created anything close to One. I consider it their magnum opus, even with the lack of audible bass.
How I envy people, who hear Metallica for the first time. Metallica has appeared in my life since 1993 with the song One. I didn't know then that it was possible to play like this. Metallica soundtrack of my life
This is in my top 10 Metallica song list. However, my wife cannot listen to it. Her mother lost her battle with ALS years ago. She had to nurse her mother through it and at the end her mother couldn't talk or move anymore so this hits very close to the heart for her. I avoid the song like the plague when she is around (for obvious reasons) but I jam to it on my headphones or when I'm alone in the car ALL THE TIME. Classic Metallica is best Metallica.
Beautiful, beautiful song. To think that this album was the first one I heard from them thanks to my brother giving it to me ❤ Thanks for your reaction.
Listening to a "studio version" of a song is absolutely fine. So many people are exposed to a song the "very first time" through a studio version being played on the radio or through an album or streaming services. Not everyone experiences a song for the first time by being able to see the band perform live. PLUS, a ton of "live performances" tend to be iffy at best due to recording equipment used, sound levels being used at shows, "directors" who tend to focus on random things and not the band playing, or simply being a "bad version" of the show when the band alters the lyrics or music for one reason or another. There are a ton of songs where you can actually HEAR the lead singer trying to "hold back" in order to keep their voice for an upcoming song, or to keep their voice for upcoming shows... meaning that they aren't giving their full performance like they did when they were first recording the song.
Ahh, those iconic sextuplets on the double bass drums, synced in with the lead guitar, amazing. I played Marching Percussion, primarily snare, for many years, absolutely love the percussion's pulse through this whole album.
I was a barely a teenager when this dropped and it was fkn FIRE 🔥 I love Metallica. Btw, those Blue eyes of yours 😍 that smile… you are Gorgeous. Have a Beautiful day
It's so awesome to see more people react t the music I grew up with the 4 great ones are still alive and influencing all around this was back in 88 I was less than 10 and Metallica with Iron Maiden , Black Sabbath , Led zepellin and of course the big 4 of thrash another metal head in the making we got here, Welcome !!!
I wish nothing more than to hear this song again for the first time. I was 11 when it came out, and it didn't mean much then, but now that I'm 45 years old, it's completely different.
I've watched your reactions to the Metallica videos and I see that you really love them because it always looks and sounds like you're having a "Big O". Keep up the great reactions!
Im glad your enjoying Metallica, Ive been supporting them since the 80's which is also my favorite music by them... but if you want to get to see them they are on tour... I have my tixx for Gianys Stadium in August
Tanxugueiras is a trio formed by Aida Tarrío, and the twins Olaia and Sabela Maneiro. They are from Galicia, northwestern Spain. They almost always sing in Galician, Galicia's own language, although they have sung in Spanish in some performances. They also play the tambourine in many of their performances. The name of the group comes from the toponymy: it is the name given to farms where badgers (teixugos in galician language) usually roam and that in the area of Fumaces, municipality of Riós (province of Ourense) is called tanxugo instead of from teixugo (which would be the correct form) and hence "tanxugueira". Until 2021 this group was known in the field of traditional Galician music but throughout 2021 thanks to the videos of the songs MIDAS and FIGA, in which they mix traditional and modern elements, they became famous outside that field. In the fall of 2021, RTVE, (RadioTelevisión Española) decides to organize a music festival, the Benidorm Fest, to choose the artist and the song that will represent Spain in the 2022 Eurovision Song Contest The Eurovision-Spain portal carried out a consultation among its members and readers about possible candidates. The Tanxugueiras prevailed in the vote. This prompted them to appear at the Benidorm Fest with the song “Terra” that combines Galician folklore with electronic percussion. In December 2021, the video of the song was released and can be seen on RUclips:Tanxugueiras - TERRA (Official Lyric Video). In this video the lyrics of the song are in Galician with subtitles in Spanish and if they do not appear they can be activated in the settings. English subtitles can also be activated. In January 2022 the Tanxugueiras perform in the Benidorm Fest Final and come in third place. The performance can be seen on RUclips in the video: Tanxugueiras - "Terra" Benidorm Fest 2022 The Grand Final. The song and the staging are a tribute to an aspect of the tradition and culture of Galicia, the figure of the cantareiras, women who sing, and the pandereteiras, who play the tambourine, which enlivened the “foliada” or nocturnal meeting. of people to have fun, sing and dance. The phrase "there are no borders" is said in several languages spoken in Spain: Galician: Non hai fronteiras Basque (Euskera): Ez dago mugarik Catalan: No hi ha fronteres Asturian (Bable): Nun hai fronteres Castellano (often named Spanish: No hay fronteras Sign language, in the last scene of the performance. In the background images of the stage are scenes of women singing and playing the tambourine and of people dancing. The song has the structure of a muñeira, (muiñeira in Galician), a traditional Galician melody in which “ailalala” and “ailalelo” abound. Olaia's “aturuxo” almost at the end of the performance is a high-pitched, loud and prolonged cry that is emitted as a sign of joy at festivals and “foliadas” or while doing some agricultural work. The costumes of the Tanxugueiras are inspired by the traditional Galician gala dress, black with lace and jet decorations and with jet or gold jewels. The makeup simulates the drawings of the lace and the gold leaf on the hair is reminiscent of the gold of the jewels. Aida is the one wearing the braid, Olaia is the one who throws the “aturuxo” at the end of the performance and Sabela is the one wearing the golden ornament on the left side of her hair. I suggest you watch the official video in RUclips:Tanxugueiras - TERRA (Official Lyric Video), in what you can activate subtitles in English, to understand the lyrics, listen to it several times, even while doing something everyday, and then watch the Benidorm Fest final performance. RUclips: Tanxugueiras - "Terra" Benidorm Fest 2022 The Grand Final. I list you some videos of this group published on RUclips in which you will observe an evolution.
The movie/book this song is based on is incredible too. One of those stories that sticks with you forever. "I am the boss, this is champagne, merry Christmas!"... *shudders*

Since you enjoy their musicianship, Orion is a must listen.
Also The Call of Ktulu or To live is to die 🤘🏼
Good call
live please
Yes
The song with no beginning and no ending… just a short clip that Cliff plucked from the music that’s floating around in the universe.
As a veteran, I cannot listen to this without bawling every time. But I love it.
yes i know what you mean , emotion is so strong the lyrics, we all as soldiers know a situation if u get me... it remind me of a good friend
he dident make it back..
veteran or a MIC employed child murderer?
That song is a masterpiece, they way it’s start and ending, it’s so powerful. Probably one of the best songs ever!!!
Took the words right out of my mouth
@@metallicavoices Same.
Yep
THE best song ever.
truth
I have heard this song literally thousands of times and I still got chills right now.
The lyrics of this song send a different vibe compared when the song is watched with official clip.. First of all album got out without clip but back then was not too much just lyrics on radio and plenty other trash heavy-metal bands wrote & played something similar i had this first on vinyl it sounds epic then on cassette-player.. so moving few years latter (cd- coming out) they decide to do a clip for it and throw it on MTv and after watching it, i really felt so much different associating all the lyrics with the clip, just how they intended to be (not how i imagined when i was hearing the song first time without the clip).. With the video this song hits much harder because you feel the pain & suffering like you are teleported right there, and then drums+guitars are like machine-guns are just so on point with the story and action from the clip..
Goosebumps to this day every time he yells "Landmine"
I have those last few lyrics on the back of my only band shirt. absolutely chilling words that depict the horrors of warfare and the consequences on humans
No matter what you are going through it could always be worse!!! A land mine could take your sight take your speech take your hearing yourarms your legs so don’t ever give up on life.
It's one of the best moment when watching them live
This was Metallica’s Stairway to Heaven, or Hotel California, if you will - their magnum opus. Timeless metal classic!
Love this description
eeem they got like 20 of those bro
Was this Metallicas Master of Puppets?
@@Sassle16 Master of Puppets is more like Kashmir for Led Zep.
Great call, for some reason I always felt it was metals bohemian rhapsody with all the ups and downs and changes of pace
I'm so jealous of you.. I wish I could go back in time and hear this song again for the first time. It completely blew my mind the first time I heard it back in the day. It was wonderful reliving that feeling through you. The solo in this song is my favorite solo in all of metal. The whole song is a masterpiece.
Yes. Agree. Metallica has so many masterpieces.
Remember, I can ALWAYS watch the music video and I plan to; but the first listen was important for me to listen to the MUSIC!
Yeah, video is huge!
Kind of an Epic Fail to do this reaction without the video for full experience.
Couldn’t agree more.
The video is too distracting.
You made the right choice. The video is great and definitely worth watching, but it does distract from actually listening to the music.
Love the videos! You should definitely check out Slipknot, some of their songs like Duality, The Devil In I, Dead Memories, Solway Firth, Vermillion, Nero Forte, Snuff, Psychosocial, Sulfur, Unsainted, etc have heavy messages in them, and the music videos are great.

the movie can easily make a grown man cry and this song is just a brilliant translation of emotions

This song is based on the movie Johnny Get Your Gun. The music video, which is MUST SEE, incorporates some of the movie into it. It helps you understand the song more.
STRONGLY disagree. Video distracts too much from the music. Great video once you've heard and understand the song, not for a first listen.
I do not believe the band was aware of this movie, when they recorded the song. ( Though obviously they were, when they did the video.)
@@robbob5302 James wrote the song AFTER watching the movie. Well documented.
@@grimtimr7795
I just checked Songfacts, and you are right. Except it was the book he read. Not the movie.
Metallica actually purchased the film rights of the movie Johnny Got His Gun so they wouldn’t have to pay royalties for clips playing in their video.
Totally agree with your methodology of doing studio versions with lyrics. It's closer to how us "old timers" did it; with just the audio and the liner notes that often accompanied the album/CD.

Absolutely!
Can’t stand the official music video, steps on the music so much with the movie. Good one time to see it but not necessarily after that 1 time.
And if the song itself didn't give nightmares, the official video will.
Exactly. Sad thing about Metallica is that a lot of their amazing special songs don't really have the same punch and feel in the live version. The best example for that would be Fade To Black
The original video has parts of the movie, Johnny Got His Gun, from 1971 you will understand the song a lot more.

I love when these young adults hear real music for the first time from iconic bands of the 70's, 80's and 90's
My head bobs the same way when that machine-gun beat kicks in. I feel this song in my soul. I was a combat medic in the Army and saw firsthand the effect of war casualties.
*The inspiration comes from the 1939 book; Johnny Got His Gun. Was also a 1971 movie...who's clips are in the 'Official Video.'*
Most of the time, the studio version is the best introduction to a song. There are exceptions, of course.
First Metallica song I ever heard. Cotton Club in Atlanta. Was a fan instantly. Great song.
In my opinion this is the best way to listen to this song. You can just listen to this master piece without getting confused by trying to keep up without the visual interference.
ABSOLUTELY the right way on first listen. Incredible song. The story and official video is a whole pit of emotions itself.
Literally number “one” on my all time songs list from any group out there. Masterpiece.
Completely 100% Agree...ONE is my all-time favorite song..period!! Even after all these decades of listening to it, I still get goosebumps EVERY SINGLE TIME...ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE!!
That's what One really refers to. The number 1 song!
"Fed through the tube that sticks in me"
"Can't tell if this is true or dream"
I wrote an essay comparing this song and All Quiet on the Western Front for school. I am 15 years old, starting playing drums when I was 4, and mastered this song at 10.

Years upon years... this still slays me with the gorgeous smooth beauty and then the deep hard
cuts,
I grew up with these guys in the San Francisco Bay Area. I must tell you, these guys are as good today as they were back in the day. If you get a chance, you must see them live. Totally worth every penny for the price of admission
Now that you know the song you MUST see the music video version they filmed. It will change EVERYTHING!
Yes! I agree!
It's almost a different song. Definitely a different experience.

This is the best Song from Metallica and the Second best is Nothing Else matters
Metallica never gets old.. Better and better with years, like a fine wine..
My first Metallica song and been hooked ever since
she just had an ear-gasm
Back when this album came out was the why & when I got fully into metal.
Mine was the one before.
Justice was my first metal album and still my favorite
Your reaction to "One" earned you my subscribe hit...my introduction to you was a few minutes ago with one of my favourite Bands, Pearl Jam with my favourite song by them Black with maybe my favourite verses in a song ever....but the way you 'felt" THIS song 'One' is what moved me...this is a classic and the album came out when I was a teenager and really my first foray into Metal...I absolutely loved the way it moved you and you just reacted to the beautiful piece...more than the song I love that ANY music can make a person feel the way you felt is why music is so important to me and why being human in this time is so beautiful like this song and so many other we have yet to discover...Thank you for this reaction.
Loving your energy, honesty on how you are feeling this stuff. These are raw, real reactions. Keep them coming!
The oficial video of this song, ¡that's intense! You must see it
I love your videos so inspirational and your positive energy I love it.

"One", and the whole "...justice for all" album was my opener in the metal-world. I guess I was 14/15 years old, back in the days. Love Metal since then. Thank you for your great reaction to this masterpiece.
Finally someone reacting to the song itself and not the captions in the official video version.
Thank you, and congratulations for knowing the best song ever
Imo. Is Metallica the perfect metal band. They don't give a fck what haters saying, they make there own thjing, and that's why i love them so much and to watch them again live in may at the third time. I hope you, that you react more to the Load/Reload stuff. It's just awesome. for example Bleeding me or The Outlaw Torn. \m/
This song really showcased their abilities. This is world class musicianship.
Finally someone with the sense to listen to this masterpiece of a song that's not the video version,does my head when so many reaction channels react to this watching the video version and they all forgot about what it's about the music,all more bothered about the video itself instead and commont on that and get distracted by it.
Hellyeah! Got the notification for this, dropped everything cos your reactions are just awesome!! Keep it going!!
Your reaction to the greatest song ever written is pure eargasm.
So many of these reaction videos are from my childhood, early adulthood years. Imagine being around when this stuff came out. Having been in the Army now for almost 23 years, this song hits me differently. I've had friends or worked with people who resemble what is being talked about in this song. A guy I went to the board with for Sergeant lost his leg, as a Physical Therapy Tech, I worked with triple amputees and those who lost their sight. And other things.
My grand uncle was in the 1st world war. He survived wounded. Whole life traumatized. This song and 1916 by Motörhead are true anthems about the victims of the WW I.
Check out Green fields of France by drop kick Murphy’s
and sabaton has some great ww1 songs too
Been listening to this for about 30 years...this is the first time I've noticed that the drums before the solos sounds like a heartbeat as if emphasizing all he could hear! Amazing song!
dude chills no way 🤯wow omg wow i could never imagine
I love your Metallica reactions. You have full body reactions. You have the exitement to explore Metallica in a short time for what i have done in 40 years. I love it.
On the night of September 15 2001, while I was in liberty from the Marine Corps I slid down a 40' cliff and suffered a class 3 tramdic brain injury. After I spent two months at the a hospital in California, then I got life flighted up to a VA. I remember laying in the bed in the VA and this song was going through my head.
Perfect! Now u have heard the song, understand the meaning, now u are ready for the official video! Te official video is just too much to take in and hear the music, but now u can watch it, knowing the lyrics and really get ur feelings touched by the video! Trust me it is an experience all its own!
I've seen both live versions many times,but watching this video with your reaction made it new and more powerful. Thank you so much.
Interesting facts about the riffs and drums, Lars and James said in interviews they wanted to simulate gunfire bursts with it, you can hear it clearly at 7:51.
This song still makes me cry. I wasn't in a good mental place when it came out in 1988. Lucky to be here, today. That's about as far as I want to go into it.
It's only now that I learned that the song is inspired by the a novel and a movie titled "Johnny got his gun."
Without the official clip you're missing out big time !!! BIG TIME !!!
Finally someone that listsens to the music and notices the lyrics without being distracted by the scenes of the official music video.
+100 points for you dear !
Every time I listen to One it's like the first time. There are few songs on the planet that have that kind of power. Very few bands in history have created anything close to One. I consider it their magnum opus, even with the lack of audible bass.
In my most humble opinion this is better than the live version.
How I envy people, who hear Metallica for the first time. Metallica has appeared in my life since 1993 with the song One. I didn't know then that it was possible to play like this. Metallica soundtrack of my life
I was 6 in 1989 when this song came on MTV. I turned the tv ALL the way up. I bounced off the furniture. I got grounded. My life changed that day.
This is in my top 10 Metallica song list. However, my wife cannot listen to it. Her mother lost her battle with ALS years ago. She had to nurse her mother through it and at the end her mother couldn't talk or move anymore so this hits very close to the heart for her. I avoid the song like the plague when she is around (for obvious reasons) but I jam to it on my headphones or when I'm alone in the car ALL THE TIME. Classic Metallica is best Metallica.
Beautiful, beautiful song. To think that this album was the first one I heard from them thanks to my brother giving it to me ❤ Thanks for your reaction.
Listening to a "studio version" of a song is absolutely fine. So many people are exposed to a song the "very first time" through a studio version being played on the radio or through an album or streaming services. Not everyone experiences a song for the first time by being able to see the band perform live.
PLUS, a ton of "live performances" tend to be iffy at best due to recording equipment used, sound levels being used at shows, "directors" who tend to focus on random things and not the band playing, or simply being a "bad version" of the show when the band alters the lyrics or music for one reason or another. There are a ton of songs where you can actually HEAR the lead singer trying to "hold back" in order to keep their voice for an upcoming song, or to keep their voice for upcoming shows... meaning that they aren't giving their full performance like they did when they were first recording the song.
OMG
LOVE this lady!
So animated and so fun!
IDK this channel can’t be Kathryn’s first experience in front of a camera.
6:32 is the best guitar tone of any song I’ve ever heard. So crisp and meaningful
Your reaction was priceless.
Really enjoyed it.
Many thanks
Ahh, those iconic sextuplets on the double bass drums, synced in with the lead guitar, amazing. I played Marching Percussion, primarily snare, for many years, absolutely love the percussion's pulse through this whole album.
Too bad they turned down Jason's bass.. it would have been more badass.
Gotta check out "Fade to Black." It's from the Ride the Lightening album. It's just as deep, if not deeper, both lyrically and musically.
I was a barely a teenager when this dropped and it was fkn FIRE 🔥 I love Metallica. Btw, those Blue eyes of yours 😍 that smile… you are Gorgeous. Have a Beautiful day
It's so awesome to see more people react t the music I grew up with the 4 great ones are still alive and influencing all around this was back in 88 I was less than 10 and Metallica with Iron Maiden , Black Sabbath , Led zepellin and of course the big 4 of thrash another metal head in the making we got here, Welcome !!!
I wish nothing more than to hear this song again for the first time. I was 11 when it came out, and it didn't mean much then, but now that I'm 45 years old, it's completely different.
This song is absolute perfection - I loved your reaction to it. Keep it up!!
the music video for this song brings even more meaning to the song.....
I've watched your reactions to the Metallica videos and I see that you really love them because it always looks and sounds like you're having a "Big O". Keep up the great reactions!
Glad you got around to it and appreciated it as much as you did. I've been keeping an eye out for this One.
I wore out two copies of this cassette cutting grass the summer after it came out. I still remember every song by heart.
Im glad your enjoying Metallica, Ive been supporting them since the 80's which is also my favorite music by them... but if you want to get to see them they are on tour... I have my tixx for Gianys Stadium in August
Watch the official video. Cranks the feels up to 11.... So well done.
Tanxugueiras is a trio formed by Aida Tarrío, and the twins Olaia and Sabela Maneiro.
They are from Galicia, northwestern Spain. They almost always sing in Galician, Galicia's own language, although they have sung in Spanish in some performances. They also play the tambourine in many of their performances.
The name of the group comes from the toponymy: it is the name given to farms where badgers (teixugos in galician language) usually roam and that in the area of Fumaces, municipality of Riós (province of Ourense) is called tanxugo instead of from teixugo (which would be the correct form) and hence "tanxugueira".
Until 2021 this group was known in the field of traditional Galician music but throughout 2021 thanks to the videos of the songs MIDAS and FIGA, in which they mix traditional and modern elements, they became famous outside that field.
In the fall of 2021, RTVE, (RadioTelevisión Española) decides to organize a music festival, the Benidorm Fest, to choose the artist and the song that will represent Spain in the 2022 Eurovision Song Contest
The Eurovision-Spain portal carried out a consultation among its members and readers about possible candidates. The Tanxugueiras prevailed in the vote. This prompted them to appear at the Benidorm Fest with the song “Terra” that combines Galician folklore with electronic percussion. In December 2021, the video of the song was released and can be seen on RUclips:Tanxugueiras - TERRA (Official Lyric Video). In this video the lyrics of the song are in Galician with subtitles in Spanish and if they do not appear they can be activated in the settings. English subtitles can also be activated.
In January 2022 the Tanxugueiras perform in the Benidorm Fest Final and come in third place. The performance can be seen on RUclips in the video: Tanxugueiras - "Terra" Benidorm Fest 2022 The Grand Final.
The song and the staging are a tribute to an aspect of the tradition and culture of Galicia, the figure of the cantareiras, women who sing, and the pandereteiras, who play the tambourine, which enlivened the “foliada” or nocturnal meeting. of people to have fun, sing and dance.
The phrase "there are no borders" is said in several languages spoken in Spain:
Galician: Non hai fronteiras
Basque (Euskera): Ez dago mugarik
Catalan: No hi ha fronteres
Asturian (Bable): Nun hai fronteres
Castellano (often named Spanish: No hay fronteras
Sign language, in the last scene of the performance.
In the background images of the stage are scenes of women singing and playing the tambourine and of people dancing.
The song has the structure of a muñeira, (muiñeira in Galician), a traditional Galician melody in which “ailalala” and “ailalelo” abound. Olaia's “aturuxo” almost at the end of the performance is a high-pitched, loud and prolonged cry that is emitted as a sign of joy at festivals and “foliadas” or while doing some agricultural work.
The costumes of the Tanxugueiras are inspired by the traditional Galician gala dress, black with lace and jet decorations and with jet or gold jewels. The makeup simulates the drawings of the lace and the gold leaf on the hair is reminiscent of the gold of the jewels.
Aida is the one wearing the braid, Olaia is the one who throws the “aturuxo” at the end of the performance and Sabela is the one wearing the golden ornament on the left side of her hair.
I suggest you watch the official video in RUclips:Tanxugueiras - TERRA (Official Lyric Video), in what you can activate subtitles in English, to understand the lyrics, listen to it several times, even while doing something everyday, and then watch the Benidorm Fest final performance. RUclips: Tanxugueiras - "Terra" Benidorm Fest 2022 The Grand Final.
I list you some videos of this group published on RUclips in which you will observe an evolution.
Brilliant reaction video. Such a amazing song. Look forward to seeing your reaction to the official music video.
The best way to experience. This song is actually the music video uncut because that tells you more of the story that it’s about.
Yeah ONE a very powerful song and is my favorite from them since the 80's don't think it will change
I must have watched 100+ reactions to this song. Yours was the best by far!!
I love your appreciation for such music.
The movie/book this song is based on is incredible too. One of those stories that sticks with you forever. "I am the boss, this is champagne, merry Christmas!"... *shudders*
amazing song. I was lucky enough to see them in Germany during Monsters of Rock while I was in the military in 1991.
