The unforgiven is about James’ strict upbringing and being forced to follow a religion which stopped him being able to take any medical treatment. His mother believed in this and died because of rejecting medication which he never forgave them for
Lost some nephews to same belief. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Miss you boys.🙏 Died so damn young. Grammar school ages😢 Exwifes side of family got a bunch of fools.
@@charleslatora5750 it's not stupid if it's your faith and let's be honest the medical industry is a freaking joke, liar and money making machine. I will never call someone an idiot for their faith. Huge difference in cult though. Religion has been around since before we could write so there's that. Not too many things have lasted for 2000 years with people. Language has evolved so vastly. Humans have evolved throughout time as well but religion has as well but it's still here.
That's true but it's also more general than that, it's about society moulding people immediately as soon as they come into the world and making them fit into what is expected of them, not just hetfield's personal story.
You guys need to react to the trilogy of these. All 3 Unforgiven songs have different topics they hit on and they are all great. And the 3rd has a damn good solo in it
I love the story about Kirks guitar solo. Kirk apparently played this brilliant solo and producer Bob Rock said: ok guitarist of the year, now you’re warmed up, maybe you can do it properly. Kirk in a rage belted out the solo again and that’s the one that made the song. 😂
@@mr.smithgnrsmith7808 you obviously don't keep up with Metallica and their history. Kirk and the rest of the band also said, "off camara" Kirk DID get mad as hell and play the solo in a rage and it was phenomenal. He showed Bob what he wanted to do with the solo instead of what Bob wanted him to play. Hence the conversation Lars and Kirk were trying to explain to him when Bob was having his bitchfest about it. Kirk didn't want that to be in the documentary. Don't be so catty and know it all till you know the facts dude. Not trying to be a bitch but this was the story they told about it. If you'd like a link I'll provide one.
The line is supposed to be "so I dub thee unforgiven", as in 'you'. Through the three songs there's a developing theme - in the first, it is 'I can't forgive you', in the second, 'I can't forgive them', in the third, 'I can't forgive myself'.
I love the progression through his life from infant to old man. the new blood joins the earth (baby), this whipping boy, this bitter man, the tired man ..I always see the birth through death and struggle throughout till the end.
Agree, i got into Metallica thru my uncle. He'd play Metallica at my grandma's in his bedroom so the whole town could hear. I'm an Aussie so Acca Dacca is what we grew up on aswell as all other Aussie pub rock bands but i fell in love with Metallica. I hope to see them live before i go or they do!
@@brownwestmoreland1077 I agree with you about pantera, but I think Metallica did the same even though they didn’t make thrash metal the whole way through, In retrospect I’m glad they switched it up cus I find myself appreciating other types of music other than metal while wanting to listen to that frequently, and I’m pretty sure they thought the same way! They wanted to do something different and it’s a classic fucking album! Happy 40th Metallica!
I found a cassette tape of the black album in a gas station around 1996 when I was in middle school (Sequoyah Hollywood :P) and have been obsessed since. Also totally jealous of y'all's Acid Bath shirts.
Destiny visits us when we least expect it, lol. Coolest thing I ever found was a copy of The Hero With a Thousand Faces by Joseph Campbell on a bus stop bench in 2020. It’s still by my bedside. The library in Echo Park was constantly out of it every time I would ask, so the Universe hooked me up. :)
those spanish-sounding gitarre was inspired by ennio morricone and his music in spaghetti-westerns like "the good, the bad and the ugly". That's why they also often play "the ecstasy of gold" at their live-concerts.
@@Technoirz y they are pretty nerdy about movies/books, best example is their first official music-video(one) which has much movie-scenes from "jhonny got his gun" or overall songtitles like "call of ktulu".
That's a good question about the vocals. Most rock vocalists double track their vocals because it makes it sound more even, powerful and punchy but I have no clue that how much they did it with James. I guess if there's three bass tracks throughout this album I'd bet there are at least two vocal tracks too. But the doubling is not as obvious as with Chris Cornell for example.
Hey guys thank you for doing this reaction. I love this song and I needed to hear it. I just lost my uncle and had his funeral today. But I love you guys for your content and reactions cause you guys are just raw. I’m jamming along with y’all. Thank you. You guys always make my day. I don’t know if y’all realize how much you guys touch my heart with these reactions but you guys really do. And sorry for getting all sappy. I just love this song 100%
I remember seeing this song done by them from the 3rd center row back in 1998! They had a full ensemble on stage playing with them. It was bad ass! And we were so close to the front! Loved it! Loved y'alls reaction!❤thanks guys!
🦋Any Day Is a Great Day For Some Iconic Metallica. 🤔I Remember How Different I was back when I was 15 From My Friends at the time. When the black album dropped. None of my friends had ever actually listened to Metallica or Megadeth. So I would carry around one of those old Walkman Cassette Players. Every Place I Went & One Listen Was All It Took, they all became instant Fans. My Top 2 Favorite Metallica Songs 'Will Always Be 'To Live Is To Die'' & ''Fade To Black'' Listening To This Also Makes Me Want To Get Out My Metallica Guitar Hero. An Rehash Those Memories. I Would Sit For Hours Back In The Day Playing That Game. 😊😊 Awesome Review Guys What An Excellent Start To This Day. 🎶🎶🤘😏✌🎶🎶And I agree with the tribe you both should complete this trilogy with parts 2&3.
Time for unforgiven 2 and 3? Also, check out Liberate by Disturbed. Metallica was from Los Angeles but Cliff convinced them to move to San Francisco. First song I heard of Metallica was One. I was 4 or 5. I was blown away. Black album came out when I was 7. I basically knew the A side of the cassette. As for when I really started listening to them, it was when Reload came out with Unforgiven 2, Until It Sleeps, and King Nothing. Later I got more into their older stuff Although the stuff they have been puting out since Robert joined has been pretty good.
I wouldn't say James has the best voice, but he has one of the memorable voices out there... you hear it and you instantly know it's him... Also The Unforgiven has 3 songs, this one from their The Black Album, Unforgiven 2 is from ReLoad and The Unforgiven 3 is from Death Magnetic Also the Black Album had Nothing Else Matters on it which in my opinion is the best metal ballad ever...
@@angelispawn I totally agree with you. Nothing Else Matters is one of those songs that you can't help but sing along to, whereas Fade is more of a sad/introspective song.
When you dub someone it's like the queen of england "dubbing" someone a "Sir" or a knight. It's a label that he felt was on him, "Unforgiven", and so he is labelling those that would do that to him the "Unforgiven " too.
Metallica's debut album Kill 'em All, came out the year I was born (1983) and I grew up listening to them. Even after all these years, they are still in my top 5 bands of all time ❤
I'm sure you'll do the whole trilogy on "The Unforgiven" now but I don't think you've hit on one of Metallica's catchiest tunes they did with a lady named Marianne Faithfull called "The Memory Remains". The chorus that she sings is easy and epic if you watch a live version with her featured. Side note I've been thinking about for awhile that I thought i would bring up to you guys, you've come a long way from when you first started this channel. Honestly go back and look at the first 5-10 videos you did compared to the production now. It's amazing. It also amazes me that there are only 75k subs for a channel that should have a ton more due to the history and insight you guys dip into. One thing I noticed a lot of the sub channels do from time to time when they go down these rabbit hole of band anthologies is they go live on youtube. It has a way of bringing your audience right in front of you and gets you that reaction right away so you can keep rolling with the theme of the show. I'm sure you both are busy but it might be something you try once or twice a month since Smokey is an encyclopedia of information and Hollywood is a shotgun blast of emotion that would be pretty awesome to hang out for an hour or whatever. Just sayin though, I can appreciate what you have done in the short time on YT and I see you. Keep up the good work my dudes!
Other Metallica songs recommended from me: All Nightmare Long, Am I Evil (Diamond Head Cover), Blackened, Creeping Death, Damage Inc, Dyer's Eve, Fight Fire with Fire, Fuel, Harvester of Sorrow, Hit the Lights, Hardwired, Leper Messiah, Moth into Flame, Sad but True, So What, Spit Out The Bone, The Call of Ktulu (Instrumental), The Day That Never Comes, The Four Horsemen, The Outlaw Torn, Turn the Page, Wherever I May Roam, Welcome Home (Sanitarium) & Whiplash :D
This is one of the toughest lyrics to date. This is child abuse, this is arbitrary regulations inhibiting him, this is him telling us what will be the end result of a life curbed by others. Hetfield is a poet and a wordsmith.
I like how you describe it as blue's metal if we think about it blue's, jazz is where rock and roll started we owe a lot to all those great musicians ✌️
Many thanks for doing this guys, glad you liked it and that it got you thinking. did you get my cradle of filth request via patreon? keep up the great work guys and stay safe over christmas
Solid reaction. Couple points. 1). There are 3 unforgivens 2). Unforgiven II is on reload. 3). 'Dub the unforgiven' is a reference to the imagery of being knighted. When some one is knighted the words: "I Dub thee Sir (insert name here" are spoken. Metallica has an enormous catalog... Try out Enter Sandman live in Moscow 1991
James had layered two vocal tracks on top of each other in prior records but Bob Rock (producer of the Black Album) refused to let him do that for this album.
That’s as personal a song any fan will get about James’ life growing up in a strict Christian household. There is two more parts to The Unforgiven that tell the story more in depth. Very powerful! Please check out KISS - Unholy. From their non make-up years, 1992. Bad ass song I think you both will dig. No matter what you guys chose to react to I will be looking forward to seeing. You guys rock!! Peace!!
best song on the black album .......i didn't fit n the 80's either. my mom wanted me to cut my long hair she didn't like my clothes i wear...it was crazy u 2 guys r great keep on peace out lol😾✌
I remember the first time hearing this album back in the 90’s. Literally hanging in the local bank parking lot and my buddy rolling up in his 69 VW Bug thumping this shit. He’s like, boy you late!! Mfr had me on that one. Lol.
The Black Album, or Metallica’s self titled album, produced by Bob Rock, is flooring. I was at a friend’s underground concert back in Baltimore, and we were all having some drinks out back, playing old cassettes, and when it was my turn to choose, I picked this album. People groaned a little, poking fun at my selection as being super sell out material, but by the end of the first side, those kids couldn’t flip that cassette fast enough, lol. GOT EM
All these years, and the people making lyric videos still can't bother to check the original source, or their own spelling... I only bring it up because it's apparently caused some confusion, especially around the chorus end. It's "I dub thee unforgiven".... I call *you* unforgiven. And he "never shined through in what I've shown", but that's fairly hard to mistake.
One amazing thing about this is they switched things up in that in most ballads the main verses are mellow while the chorus hits hard. Well in this song the main verses hit hard and the chorus is soft. They switch it back in part 2
As far as real blues metal, try some early Whitesnake…such as “Is This Love?” “Love Ain’t No Stranger” “Fool For Your Loving” or “Don’t Break My Heart Again”. Good Stuff bros 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
He's talking about how his conditioning made him deny himself himself. He can't conform because he can't incorporate true emotion, in any functional way, into his meeting the world/relations. Emotions are kept away thus only come to play when pressure is too high. They are unforgiven because even though he understood this, he still needed someone to see/cooperate/advise but that did not happen. Pity he never realized you don't need other people to be happy, would've saved him the bitterness. My take. When you "make" a knight, you dub him. Touch each shoulder with your sword and bestow him with title, riches and honours.
When the Black album came out, us old school Metallica fans thought they sold out and hated it. Its grown on us. They lost the Thrash. Maybe they just grew up and evolved. Hindsight
The unforgiven is about James’ strict upbringing and being forced to follow a religion which stopped him being able to take any medical treatment. His mother believed in this and died because of rejecting medication which he never forgave them for
Lost some nephews to same belief. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.
Miss you boys.🙏 Died so damn young. Grammar school ages😢

didn't even know they made a 3rd lol
Unforgiven 2 & 3 would be great to complete the trilogy. Blues metal is perfect 😂
The best version of 3 is James ad the orchestra
More country western than blues

I know, amazing song writing and vision for the video.
One the best songs ever composed in my opinion!
This and God that Failed are the standouts on the album for me. I've always loved songs that come from raw, painful emotion.
Finally getting to the greatest band of all time! Great Choice Gentleman!
Agree, i got into Metallica thru my uncle. He'd play Metallica at my grandma's in his bedroom so the whole town could hear. I'm an Aussie so Acca Dacca is what we grew up on aswell as all other Aussie pub rock bands but i fell in love with Metallica. I hope to see them live before i go or they do!
Pantera all day. Metallica sold out for what was popular at the time. Pantera did what they wanted to do and gave the fans what they wanted.

Metallica is good and all, but far from the greatest
@@brownwestmoreland1077 oh shuuuuut uuuuup!!!! Little baby!
To dub is to give someone a title. For example when someone gets knighted they would pronounce "I dub thee SIR smokey"

Complete the trilogy please. The solo in Unforgiven 3 is one of my favorits of Kirk. Just love how James' screaming is going over into the solo.
You should definitely do it *until it sleeps*. Thanks again for all these reactions 😆
I agree, I love James’ voice!!

Thx a lot!

my dad showed me this trilogy and I was blown absolutely away. 2 & 3 are awesome. but 3 is my favorite:)
luv u guys:)
love them shirts guys
Is it just me, or would the beginning solo of this song have gone perfectly with a trailer for RDR2?
I remember being seven years old and captivated by the music video for this.

Great song, i always stop what I am doing and listen. Thank you for doing this reaction.
Love the channel...yall are what's up for sure..
Dub here means he's being labeled, just like he said at the end of this song. "You labled me, I labled you" It's the same thing. 🙂❤

I started listening to Metallica in 1991 when I was in tenth grade. This song brings back so many good memories!
His singing in "bleeding me" is the best

There is 3 Unforgivens, this one, The Unforgiven 2 on the Reload Album and The Unforgiven 3 on the Death Magnetic Album
The ballad from that album is "nothing else matters"
When Hollywood asked the wrastling question the first person to pop in my head was arackna man which was the candy man's short lived gimmick
Ya'll def need to hit up all 3 of the Unforgiven songs...They are all great songs, written almost 20 years apart
Sweet Acid Bath Tee’s!! As far as I knew that band never got enough attention and recognition to even have Merch??
My favorite from Metallica
This is one of the toughest lyrics to date. This is child abuse, this is arbitrary regulations inhibiting him, this is him telling us what will be the end result of a life curbed by others. Hetfield is a poet and a wordsmith.

Someone may have said this already, but “Nothing Else Matters” ended up becoming the bigger ballad on the Black Album 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
When they said that, I said nope! “Nothing Else Matters.” I would love to hear their take on that one.

I love Metallica and i am Fan since 1986, this love is forever ! Greatings from germany ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤
Heck yea, both my boys wearing them Acid Bath shirts!
James had layered two vocal tracks on top of each other in prior records but Bob Rock (producer of the Black Album) refused to let him do that for this album.
1-played out
2. Better than first slightly underrated
3. Best easily. Not only underrated for the trilogy but severely underrated period
Part 3 have got one of the coolest guitar solos ever in it
Watch the video, I haven’t seen it in awhile but it tells the story I think.

As far as real blues metal, try some early Whitesnake…such as “Is This Love?” “Love Ain’t No Stranger” “Fool For Your Loving” or “Don’t Break My Heart Again”. Good Stuff bros 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
He's talking about how his conditioning made him deny himself himself. He can't conform because he can't incorporate true emotion, in any functional way, into his meeting the world/relations. Emotions are kept away thus only come to play when pressure is too high.
They are unforgiven because even though he understood this, he still needed someone to see/cooperate/advise but that did not happen. Pity he never realized you don't need other people to be happy, would've saved him the bitterness. My take.
When you "make" a knight, you dub him. Touch each shoulder with your sword and bestow him with title, riches and honours.
Every time you start to sing rappers react I think you're going to stay rapper's delight.
We don't talk about Unforgiven pt. 3
You guys should compare all three songs back to back to back
Congratulations, youtube's algorithm finally brought you to me
When the Black album came out, us old school Metallica fans thought they sold out and hated it. Its grown on us. They lost the Thrash. Maybe they just grew up and evolved. Hindsight
Loving the t-shirts, have you done an acid bath reaction video?
now you have to do Unforgiven II, and III. 3 is my Favorite
I suggest doing the Unforgiven Trilogy then :P
