I was 14 when this came out. I'm now 47. Still hits as hard as back in 88
Yep....
Totally. Hits like a two-ton heavy thing.
Same here brother. Got us through tough times.
Metallica the best band in my opinion,
Same here... Peace from Portugal!Rock on till we die...
One of the best reactions to this song that I've seen (and I've seen many). No fake hype, just authentic emotion and intelligent commentary.
Indeed an amazing react
That’s true but watch “Lost in Vegas” reaction.
@@thedaednu1576 I'm a huge fan of Lost in Vegas and have watched their "One" reaction many times. It's actually one of the first reaction videos I ever saw (their reaction to "Master of Puppets" was the first, and I found "One" soon after).
This is the dumbed down version of the video. With all the silly soundbites from an old film. They made this for the American audience.
She brings songs to life. That's why I watch her more then any reaction ppl.
"And Justice for All" the entire album is epic.
For me this is the best album in their entire discography. It almost sounds like they just recorded a jam session and then broke it up into individual songs.
Cover to cover. Zero skips.
@@joenobody5631 agree
Thats the album that got me - great call!
@@joenobody5631 Well, except if you have the original 4 vinyl album release. The dynamics and deep deep rock solid bass sound on that original analog master is just outstanding.
I first heard this song over 30 years ago and it still hits so hard. The emotion, rage, and anguish. This music can make you feel. Metal is the human experience.
FIRST - can we get some love and respect for Lilly here!! My girl's reaction was not only spot-on, it was one of the best ever first-time listening reactions to this song. most seem to be confused and lost with the overall message and use of the movie clip. Great great job, from this young lady.
Second - thank you Lilly for sharing this reaction with us. Loved it - and you obviously care about what you're doing cuz you no doubt read the reactions and learned some info from it. Good to see.
MORE METALLICA:
Fade To Black, Dyer's Eve, Disposable Heroes, Welcome Home - Sanitarium. These all have similar dark profound messages. Fade to Black is a widely loved and popular song as it really hits hard in the feels.
My personal favorite song by Metallica is "Creeping Death" which is a somewhat cynical/jaded dark perspective of God's wrath as it relates to the story of Moses and Egypt. I think you may be ready to see them play LIVE - which is a whole different can of awesome-sauce. I HIGHLY recommend "Creeping Death" LIVE - MOSCOW 1991" I guarantee your mind aint blown enough until you see that performance and that crowd!
Mad love and respect to you!
Definitely mad respect to her for starting to branch out. Amazing reaction by her!
No only just come across the Lass , she listens and she listens well!
Great comment, mate! Also, great song recommendations for her!
She's a smart girl.
James Hetfield is the lead singer and one of the best to ever do it imo, if you could react to Metallica- Fade to black that is an even sadder song.
Yes, do fade to black its great song.
+1, imo Fade to Black is Metallica's magnum opus, but Master of Puppets and One are close second and third
@@VermillionGates it depends tho....metallica has released a lot of different stuff...so depending on ur taste the list might be different from that...but....fade to black is an "all arounder" and contains every good part about metallica's style of playing.
@@nebrun I know man, I've been listening to Metallica for 15 years. You can pick and choose any of their tracks from the first 4 albums, but Fade to Black has personally been my favorite for a long time
Studio version of Fade To Black.
Another Metallica masterpiece based on the movie and book, "Johnny Got His Gun" by Dalton Trumbo. Imagine a young World War I soldier severely wounded. He's alive, but missing all his arms, legs, mouth, eyes, ears and face. He's just a living torso. How do you communicate with the rest of the world? How do you understand where you are, what day it is right now? What would be the most humane way to determine your future, letting him die or show everyone what the horrors of war can do to a person? Not to mention, the insanity of trying to figure all this out between times of being sedated and wide awake. What if this were one of us?
I'd hold my breath as I wished for death.
And likely deaf, so he'd never hear anyone explain or discuss what his state is.
"Johnny Got His Gun" by Dalton Trumbo is full of friggin great quotes too.
And Trumbo's book took its name from lyrics ("Johnny get your gun, get your gun, get your gun... ") from the 1917 song "Over There", by George M. Cohan. So what we've got here from Metallica, is a song inspired by a movie, based on a book, inspired by a song, and I don't know why I find that so fascinating, but I do.
...and the interesting way they filmed the movie. In black and white...but his memories are in color.
*Thank you for paying attention to the story and the lyrics at the same time. I can't tell you how many ppl have no idea what's going on because they only pay attention to the story but not the lyrics, or the lyrics but not the story. So they're like "what? I don't get it. What's going on?" You nailed it!*
Lily really gets into her reactions.
“One” is one of the deepest messed up songs I’ve heard.
I read that Metallica bought the rights to the movie “Johnny Got His Gun” rather than paying royalties every time the music video or song was played.
This seemed to be one of her first reactions to Metallica because she didn’t know that James Hetfield was the lead singer, but I love the fact that she did research on them and learned about the band and James.
It added a lot of depth and insight to her other Metallica reactions.
it was cheaper for them.
Yes, the band bought the rights to the movie for the purpose of making this video, the video that they once swore that they'd never make.
Yes, you are correct. Metallica bought the rights to the movie “Johnny Got His Gun” rather than paying royalties every time the music video or song was played.
In 1988, Metallica released the song "One", which was inspired by the movie "Johnny Got His Gun". The music video for the song featured clips from the movie.
Metallica initially had to pay royalties to the movie's producers every time the music video or song was played. However, in order to avoid paying royalties, Metallica bought the rights to the movie in 1991.
Metallica's purchase of the rights to "Johnny Got His Gun" is an example of a practice known as "music video clearance".
Also Fade to Black
this song is such a masterpiece
This reaction made me so happy. Made me remember how I felt when music first grabbed me.
Almost wish I could experience it again
I once stole a metallica cd as a kid - and they catched me bro...
Grabbed me.... Yes!!! that's the right word to describe such feelings
I deployed twice to Iraq and once to AFG, sustained combat every goddamn tour, and although I was wounded physically in significant way really, the s*^t we saw and had to do did in fact damage me emotionally and psychologically...the worst thing about it is the funerals I've attended for a couple of my brothers in uniform who decided to take their own lives, seein their parents, and the wife of one, cry and hurt the way they did is something I won't ever forget....
After two tours in Iraq, this song hits a bit different than it did before. Now I can't help but think PTSD when I hear it. Not being able to tell reality from a dream. Also feeling trapped in your own body at times.
Thank you for your service. My father was a United States Marine. He was deployed for Desert Storm and spent 13 months boots on the ground in Vietnam. As did my Uncle. My husband did a tour in Desert Tour and my baby sister did 3 tours in Afghanistan. I had my own war. I get it and the gift of PTSD. My Dad passed on the 6th of August this year. I see the state of our nation, and I despair. Don't go back if you can help it. I love my country but not the puppet masters.
@@michellewheatley2007 My father is retired Navy and was deployed to the gulf during Desert Storm and my older brother is a retired Marine who deployed to Afghanistan. My thanks to your family for their service. May your father Rest in Peace and I wish him Fair Winds and Following Seas! I'm sorry for your loss. My heart goes out to you and yours!!
HOORAH!
And of course people are obligatorily "thanking" you for participating in this madness. I'm sorry truly for what happened to you, and I don't blame you, but this glorification of veterans pisses me off. "Thank you for serving our billionaires. Now, get lost and deal with it" is what I hear when people say "thank you for your service".
I’m an old guy who watched MTV videos after school every day back in the late 1980’s when this came out. I LOVE watching peoples’ first reactions to this song and video. It really was a life-altering experience for me. Metallica was the first time I genuinely got into heavier music. Not just the Def Leppards and the Guns N’ Roses… but thrash metal. Speed metal. And this was the first Metallica song I ever heard. If you visit the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, you can learn the into of this song in their ‘jam-studio’ - it’s so awesome! Thank you for your heartfelt reaction here. Well done.
The entire "And Justice For All" album is mind-blowing from beginning to end, starting with "Blackened" and ending with "Dyers Eve" One line from a song from the album that has stuck with me since the album came is: When a man lies, he murders a part of the world. Cannot the kingdom of salvation take me hone.
At first I loved Metallica for the sick riffs as I've gotten older I've realized just how timeless a lot of their songs are. The abuse of substances from master of puppets to the loss of humanity that my brothers in the military suffer. If politicians believed in supporting veterans they would stop making so damn many of us in wars of aggression and empire
Once in a lifetime greats
Was 8 when I saw this on MTV in 88. Still my favorite song. This is what got me into rock.
Fade to black is another great one with a heavy subject, most metallica songs are though.... Or Welcome Home (Sanitarium). Orion is a really cool instrumental.
Seconded. Fade To Black is, IMO, the song she should do next. If not Fade To Black, then something that's just pure headbanger like Seek and Destroy.
The movie is called Johnny Got His Gun and this is an amazing reaction!! I haven't watched this video in 20yrs and forgot about all the movie clips that add even more substance to the song and video. Great work sis!
Disposable Heroes is a Metallica song I'd recommend. Goes along with this "One" nicely in my opinion.
It does now that you mention it,it’s almost like One is a sequel
@@michaelblaine6494 For Whom The Bell Tolls, does too (two) lol.
Yes, live in Mexico City!!!
It's so good 😯
@@metalmellie4371 that live performance is F ing awesome, good shout
My all time favourite metallica song
This song is a masterpiece! Hits me hard every time I hear it. Great reaction Lilly!
Yes, this song and Master of Puppets are probably the best Metallica songs
This is one of my favorite songs of all time so I always enjoy watching others' reactions when they first hear it and see the video. Feels like I've seen a hundred reactions so far but this is easily my favorite. Out of all the reactions I've ever seen, you seem to be the only one that got everything on the first watch. You were into the music, you got just how deep and heavy the lyrics were, and you got what was going on in the video. You just got it; all of it! Hell I didn't even get it all the first time I heard this. Loved this reaction! New sub.
I think this is all time classic love it
This song cost them a lot of fans but gained them so many more. They lost fans because they said they would never do a music video and One was the first music video they did.
Warms my heart to see a "kid" not only like the music but get the message behind it. This song has brought tears to my eyes for 24 years and your reaction made it even more visceral. Got you a new subscriber and I look forward to looking at your other reactions.
"He's a product of your profession, not mine." Great reaction.
Yeah, that military man was a prick and a hypocrite.
I stumbled on this as one of those yootoob suggestions in the right hand column and was compelled to watch. Until the song finished, I thought that Lily had probably viewed this prior to making the video. However, her reaction in that nanosecond at the end of the song was the same as mine when I first heard the track on The Friday Rock Show on Radio One here in the UK (Hosted by the legendary Tommy Vance). Probably '88 or '89, on a mono bedside alarm clock/radio(!), and the first time I'd experienced Metallica. The utter silence that follows the intensity and heaviness of the song had as much impact as the song itself, and 30+ years on, I still experience the same exact feeling every time I hear the song, despite having seen and heard plenty of so called heavier, detuned bands in the interim.(& for the younger heavy musos, it's heavy despite being in E standard/concert pitch (Not Drop Z or whatever)!😉😉🤘🤘) Same goes for Slayer (Same era, as respected and significant, and mostly in Eb) 🤘🤘(Which leads to a suggestion for a possible future video...... "Angel Of Death", "South Of Heaven", "Seasons In The Abyss", "Mandatory Suicide".......Do It!😉) (Or Black Sabbath.....)
Gratitude for the memories, your open mindedness towards the band and song, and for the genuine reactions Lily, and apologies for the nerd out re tunings!. Peace. 👍👊🤘
My all-time favorite song & video. I’ve seen it thousands of time and I still get chills and/or tear up at times. This is one of the best reactions I’ve seen to it. You actually paid attention, listened & got it. In your heart. This is more than I can say for most. Kudos to you and I hope you enjoy going down the rabbit hole of the GOATs
The song was inspired by the film "Johnny Got His Gun" (which is where the film clips and audio came from), and the film was in turn derived from a book by the same name. This song became a big anti-war anthem in the Heavy Metal community, and when Metallica played this song live at the Grammy's it scared the shiznits out of the stuffed suits in the audience. (You REALLY should watch that performance, seriously). Fun fact, the rapid fire snare hits are supposed to mimic the sound of machine gun fire.
Metallica the band:
James Hetfield - Lead Singer, Lyricist, Songwriter, Rythm Guitarist 1981-Current
Lars Ulrich - Drummer, Songwriter 1981-Current
Kirk Hammet - Lead Guitarist, Guitar Riff/Solo Writer 1983-Current
Cliff Burton (RIP) - Bassist 1982-1986
Jason Newstead - Bassist 1986-2001
Robert Trujillo - Bassist 2002-Current
(All three Bassists sang backing vocals for live performances and wrote the majority of the bass riffs/solos during their respective tenures.)
During the first two years of the band's existence, Ron McGovney played bass guitar until he left and was replaced by Cliff Burton (formerly of Trauma, and getting Cliff in the band was the reason the Metallica relocated from Los Angeles to San Francisco), and Dave Mustaine (founder, singer, songwriter, guitarist of Megadeath) played lead guitar until his drunken violent behavior forced the band to kick him out and pick up Kirk Hammett (formerly of Exodus) to replace him. Prior to joining Metallica, Jason Newstead was the Bassist for Flotsam and Jetsam, and Robert Trujillo previously played bass for Suicidal Tendencies.
James had read the book and wrote the song afterwards. When they decided to finally do a music video on this album, they had the single picked out, but only later learned that Trumbo's book had been made into a movie. Since they had no interest in acting themselves, they decided to license the movie and include selected scenes along with the band's playing. Once it took off as a single, they figured they'd have to use part of the video on tour, which meant that they'd have to re-license the movie. So instead, the bought the movie outright.
I loved your reaction to this song! I haven't heard this in a while and it gives me goosebumps every time!
Love u lilly u always bring a song to life love your reaction to the songs. So thank you so much ❤❤
Along the lines of "One", the band Five Finger Death Punch "Wrong Side of Heaven" is incredibly meaningful, and the official video never fails to choke me up. Its about soldiers and mental health basically
They are touring together next summer!!!!
Welcome Lilly ! Youve entered the gates of heavy metal and that right there is a reason why we love it ! Thank you for listening and appreciating ! I love how the drums sounded like machine gun fire during the solo . Nice lil nuance to the already dreadful wartime deal . Disposable Heroes is another good track they do
I saw this video when it premiered in 1989. I sat in front of the TV in absolute awe. I couldn't even process what just happened in that moment. I've been a fan ever since.
This video was one of thousands that made MTV a must have back in the day.
Disposable Heroes, Fade To Black, and if you love just instrumentals? They have The Call Of Ktulu, Orion, To Live Is To Die, and Suicide and Redemption. And basically anything off of the Master Of Puppets album. Also they have The Unforgiven 1,2, and 3. He'll, might as well say most of their stuff.
Hell. Damn auto correct
I honestly think you'd love their song "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)" - it's about someone being put in an insane asylum and it's one of their best songs imo. I'm glad you liked this one!
Sanitarium is my favorite Metallica song.
christ benoit from WWE?
@@JoNesBlacKkrafkini ?
When I seen them live in 92 One was the encore song. It was epic light show synchronized with drums and the guitar solo fireworks. Literally
This video just changed me.
Thank you
As a Metallica fan of more than 35 years, her genuine emotional reaction made me happier than y’all know. That was really a nice moment.
Agree
Now that you’ve seen the video, take a moment to just hear the song. You’ll hear even more without the movie scenes distracting. It’s kind of a whole other experience. You’ll appreciate the musicianship more. And yeah, fade to black. Studio version. No live version.
this got me hooked and I never looked back, there is no other type of music that will give you this feeling, so much truth behind this song.
I love your reaction and is "One" of the best i have seen with emotion...thanks i love this song and heard it thousands of times growing up.
Lily everyone is so proud of how far you’ve come! One of Metallica’s greatest rivals, Megadeth, has incredible songs as well. The lead singer of Megadeth was an original MetallicA member who was kicked out. Tornado of Souls or Peace Sells are both great options to start with Megadeth!
Iron Maiden as well.
Welcome to Metal! Some of the best, technical, and truly emotionally expressive music! With or without lyrics! 😁
My favorite song ever, such an emotional ride. Great reaction!
The guitar is sooo good in this,and the drums,I love it,Always takes me bk to the beach where I first heard it
Disposable Heroes, welcome home sanitarium, for whom the bell rolls, almost any Metallica song is amazing!
Awesome reaction! Yep, this hit everyone like a ton of bricks when it came out on MTV in 1988. Blew everyone’s mind. Metallica was already legendary before this, but this video was a whole different deal.
I suggest to listen to (studio versions)
Fade to Black
Master of Puppets
The Unforgiven
gotta say I'm impressed by the couple of reactions I've seen you in. You really pay attention and catch what is being said, not just lyrically. Nice to see.🤟✌💯
It was so fun to watch you you learn that song as it played out I was impressed by how observant you are
Nice job young lady
Great reaction. This was actually Metallica's very first music video. The clips you're seeing in the video are from the movie Johnny got his gun.
Metallica has quite a few good songs, and a lot of their music carries a specific theme that is often incredibly relatable.
They also have a couple instrumental songs on their first four albums that were done with their friend and beloved original bassist Cliff Burton who tragically passed away in 1986 or 1987 I can't remember exactly when.
Anesthesia (pulling teeth), Call off Kthulu, Orion, and To live is to Die. All incredible instrumentals.
Master of Puppets is their best album by far and 4 years ago it was added to the library of congress to be preserved for generations to come because of its impact on music. It is the only rock/metal album in history to be added to the library of congress.
Metallica...one of the best to ever do it. Fade to black is another masterpiece that you would love !!
true
Don’t forget Master of Puppets
I saw this tour 1989 summer of my 19th birthday in Cleveland Ohio! A great Concert! 🤘🤘 Great reaction!
One of the best reactions to this song i have seen. So on point. Nicely done.
That was one of the best reactions to One I've ever seen. You understood the story from start to finish, which is not easy! Try some live performances. My favorite is Creeping Death live Moscow 1991. Enjoy your Metallica journey, Lilly!
I just suggested the same Live performance at the bottom of my post. Absolutely!!! Mind blowing
Ya pretty cool.
She was really listening.
Love to see it.
Moscow 91 is a god damn mania of any event
This song was based on "Johnny Got His Gun", an anti war book written about a WW1 veteran who stepped on a landmine which blew off his arms and legs, and left him blind, deaf and unable to speak, but completely alert and awake. It's a terrifying and really sad book. Thinking about how it would be feel to literally be a prisoner in your own mind scared the shit out of me when I was younger.
Hetfield actually bought the rights to the movie. Of course, The author of the book and producer of the movie, Dalton Trumbo, was not actually anti-war. He was just a Stalinist.
@@ronmaximilian6953 the novel is 100 percent anti war, and considering his time as a war correspondent during the 2nd world war it’s easy to see where he would have derived those sentiments from.
@@Ligierthegreensun The book was written in 1938 and released in 1939. It was pulled in June 1940, after the Nazis invaded the Soviet Union.
@@ronmaximilian6953 And WWII started in 1939 and the lead up from when the Nazis seized power in 1933 was being spoken about in the context of the previous world war. Also, operation barbarossa didn't happen until 1941. Also it was pulled by Trumbo and his publishers following the invasion because as an anti war book, the communist party did not want to be seen as critical of the Allies and siding with the Axis powers. So yes, the book was decidedly anti war as was Trumbo.
@@Ligierthegreensun You're right. The book was pulled in June 1941. That was a silly error of mine. But my point still stands that the Stalinist flipped when the Soviet Union was invaded. And then once the Cold War began, he became "anti-war" again.
When World War II started as a matter of perspective. For the United States, it started in December 1941. For most European countries, it started in September 1939 with the exception of the countries that were already occupied by the Nazis. In Africa, World War II began in October 1935, with the invasion of Ethiopia. And in Asia, World War II began in July 1937 with the Japanese invasion of China
It's ok...
When this video premiered on MTV it left us completely speechless for almost an hour...NO joke. One of the deepest songs I've ever heard still to this day. 🖤
Love that people are getting to see this masterpeice
This music video is the "one".
Pun intended.
The video clips are from the movie "Johnny got his gun".
It's a great movie, but the Metallica video is even better than the film. The way they wrote the music around the story. Beautifully done. Great reaction. You did this one justice. (Another pun?) ( ;
You mean "You did this "One" Justice"? lol
Lol, if this song makes you tear up, listen to Fade To Black also by Metallica, it will destroy you emotionally
I remember watching the Grammys when Metallica played this song, 90% of the audience didn't know what was going on and the rest were loving it.
this video features scenes from the 1971 movie johnny's got his gun. now for the rabbit hole: theres for whom the bell tolls, welcome home sanitarium, fade tp black (same album as for whom) enter sandman, battery. EDIT: im an idiot, i forgot the unforgiven trilogy (three songs same theme)
Fight Fire with Fire!!
OINE is one of metallica's most iconic and emotional pieces.
"One" is just a masterpiece. No question about it! Great reaction to one of the greatest "anti-war-songs" ever. Greets from Germany! I would suggest another Band for you by the name TOOL. In many peoples opinion TOOL is the pinacle of rock music in our times. Start with "Schism", a not so complicated one to start with. Go with audio only, because the videos are often very distracting form the music and the lyrics, which are deep as f... most of the time. Have fun!
Yes, this song and Master of Puppets are both masterpieces from
I saw them in Edinburgh 1988 on the tour for this album...the song...One...live...omg
By far one of the most heart wrenching songs to hear though A masterpiece 🤘🤘🤘
I could literally hear this song everyday for the rest of my life, and never get tired of it
one of the best reactions I've seen you really understand the message and meaning 👏
I wish i could hear this song for the first time again... heavy song for sure and amazingly good
This song is very good and deep. Tears me up
the emotion in this song/movie is off the charts hurting
Just read the comments. Right! What they said. You got it all. Best reaction I’ve seen. Bless you dear for understanding this.
This is my favorite metal song of all time. I enjoyed you seeing/hearing for first time
I love this reaction, I felt the same way at 12 years old when I discovered them with this song/video
My God, the moment you get it is amazing. CONGRATS. 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
Amazing reaction. Thanks for being authentic.🤘
I first saw this video 34 years ago on a Saturday morning in the very early years of MTV and i had the very same grim on my face !
And it still gives me goose bums now 🤘
I have to applauded you Lilly on the fact that you actually understand the message behind the music in this song. There are a lot of Metal band from the 70s and 80s that had stories or messages behind the music that a lot of people miss even today.
I'm sooo glad you did the video clip. Some don't and don't get the story.the song and the vid clip go hand in hand. Magic song. One of my favourites.
From the first time I saw this on TBS Night Trax it became my favorite Metallica song but also my favorite video of any band.
Recently just found your reacrion videos. Some of the ebst because of the depth of analyzing. Keep up the good work!
You’ve just earned a subscriber as you actually pay attention to the message of the song
Best reaction ever love it. Forever rock on.
This song is one that I can relate to because on my 4th combat tour. I hit an IED and lost both of my legs. I went thru a ton of emotions and wanting to die. Because I did feel whole with my legs gone.
Fade to Black is another awesome one.
Metallia has withstood the test of time...I seen them in 94 and then again few years ago and they still are killing it
I remember my first time listening to this song was just a couple years ago and I was just searching through rock playlists to get a feel for what real rock is as when I was younger my best friend which was also my neighbor was a metal head but he listened to a lot more emo rock and screamo I believe it’s called and so it was a part of my childhood but hearing this song for the first time… was absolute chills. Wish I could turn back time so that I could listen to it for the first time all over again.
One of the best reviews i’ve seen on here . Great Job .
Love this song
I love watching reaction videos to Metallica because they are my favorite band, and I love to watch people be hit by their music the same way I was, but rarely do I feel inclined to comment my thoughts. But I want to here because it is very rare for someone listening to this song for the first time, to entirely understand what the lyrics and accompanying movie clips are trying to convey. It can be, and is a lot to digest and fully interpret correctly with a first time listen, which therefore means a lot of people miss a lot of the meaning the song puts forward, which is a shame. But you got it all and really paid attention to what was being sang, and conveyed. It's rare someone understands this song like that on a first listen, so I commend you for that! I hope you're hooked now and are incredibly interested to see what else the band has to offer haha. My next recommendation would be their live performance of Fade to Black, Lincoln Nebraska 2018. That is probably their best performance of that song and it's relatively recent too so it might be fun to see what the band can still do at this point in their career haha.
The goated song ever... slaying... top 2 goated songs ever written
You can almost feel the pain expressed in this one. So deep, Respect 🙏 😞
This is hands down the best reaction to any song ive seen. This is what music is all about. Fucking FEELING! 🤘
Omg lilly Jane your the best. Love the reaction. This song is deep and it makes me tear up.
Metallica wrote 'One' based on the movie u see in the video - 'Johnny got his gun' about a World War I soldier who is substantially crippled after battle... the band at the time was James Hetfield (vocals & guitar), Lars Ulrich (drums), Kirk Hammett (lead guitar) and Jason Newsted (bass)... this was from 1988 - their 4th studio album 'And justice for all'... 'One' was Metallica's first ever music video.
The album 'And justice for all' also came under a lot of internal turmoil... it was written and recorded after the traumatic death of Metallica's bassist Cliff Burton, who was killed in a tour bus accident in Sweden in 1986... Metallica was on a roll after a huge US tour w/ Ozzy Osbourne supporting the previous album 'Master of Puppets', which went gold - their first record to sell a half million copies in the US. They were on tour in Europe w/ the band Anthrax, when their bus crashed in the dead of night on a highway in Sweden... bassist Cliff Burton (who had joined Metallica in early 1983) was thrown from his bunk out of the bus, which landed on him and killed him instantly... James, Lars, & Kirk and their crew were severely traumatized from that incident, and drank heavily to cope w/ the aftermath... The band decided to carry on w/ a new bassist, and Jason Newsted joined that year, taking Burton's spot - however, because of their loss, the band took out their grief & anger on their new bass player w/ months of hazing.
When it came time to write & record 'And Justice for all', James Hetfield (who wrote all the lyrics) was angry and traumatized enough to let loose verbally, and everything came out bleak and hopeless... the world is eff'd... there is no justice... there is no freedom... everything sucks... my parents suck. It all came out very violently... 'And justice for all' went platinum faster than 'Master of puppets' did 2 years earlier, and Metallica were headlining arenas on tour in 1989.
Some of the classics off this album - 'Harvester of sorrow'... 'Blackened'... 'Eye of the beholder' 🤘🤘🔥🔥
