Rokas Lape exactly, and they know it, because ive been to 2 concerts one in 2006 and in 2013, both of which 95% were older stuff(the better stuff). they dont force anything the crowd doesnt want, just enough for promotional purposes :D
+GarySandStorm Yes, but they should play new songs more often, some songs in Death Magnetic are also masterpieces, but with bad mixing in the album, so, alive would be better.
chuduc vong I don't hate Lars ^^ I was just joking because Toby Lee said the cameraman did an excellent job at 4:55, even though Lars isn't even in the picture
+slenderbc07 Rob is the mst talented PLAYER they have ever had, dave is good and all but he is best as a rythm guitarist and his lead is subpar ron i havent heard him enough to make a decision but CLiff he was a great writer but his playing was rather sloppy Jason was a decent player but he was nothing special Rob he is one of the best bassists i know of currently and Lars is self explanatory JAmes is really good and kirk does the job
James at 2:03 XD and during the guitar duet at around 5:00 James is like *psssh I can play this with my eyes closed.* And kirks eyeing James like *shoot. Am I playing the right notes* XD
Check out their performance of it at Webster hall in New York from 2016. The best live performance of it I've seen, they all play it flawlessly, even Lars...
James Hetfield is one of the greatest guitar players to ever grace this planet. So effortless, never any mistakes, no need to look, it’s all coming from the heart. We as a human race are incredibly lucky.
Not many would share my opinion on this but I could give a shit less. Orion is my all time favorite Metallica song. Not to mention its on my all time favorite record of theirs. This was awesome. But I wish I could time travel back to when Cliff was alive and see that shit live. The feeling I had after I lost my cherry is very similar to the feeling I had the first time I heard this song. More specifically the first time I heard that beautiful bass solo. Fucking awesome. We were all very much cheated from an exceptional talent when Cliff died. RIP Cliff. Much love.
Yo pude ver en 1986 en los Angeles tocar a Burton en el estreno de MAster of Puppets, mi padre me llevó aprovechando que tenía viaje de negocios, yo tenía 16 años, nunca jamás he visto tocar a nadie de esa manera tan brutal, compleja y con talento como Burton, ese concierto de presentación del MAster Of puppets se me quedó grabado a fuego en mi memoria.
It really cracks me up how everyone rags on Lars drumming...yeah, technically hes not the best...but he has incredible drive and energy and I could not imagine Metallica without him...Quadruple paradiddles are nice and all that...but give me a guy who puts every ounce of his being into the music 100% and youve got a killer drummer...I think he kicks ass...!!
It's not about paradiddles or technical shit. It's about GROOVE for a beat/song like Orion. Just listen to the original track and then listen to Lars' drums here. I don't normally bag on Lars, but it's almost unlistenable. There is no groove whatsoever. It sounds like every measure is a different tempo, and then on top of it he's adding all sorts of unnecessary fills. This is the worst I've ever heard him sound.
I was at this gig. We were all getting the hint from Lars playing and James's singling out of Rob but when Rob played that first note, we all went insane, the sound in this clip doesn't quite capture it.
these videos help me relive the experience of being in the pit that night, watching linkin park then after they finished hearing the ecstacy of gold coming on, i wish i could go back again
He's incredible!!! Love him!!!! From Buena Park CA USA baby. Whittier CA ain't far from me where he grew up in!!! And also Santa Monica CA USA as well!!! Am just simply so very happy for him!!!
Holy fuck rob has been in Metallica for 20 years it seems like not so long ago Jason left and the new bassist search was on wow fuck it is scary how fast time goes dam what have i done in 20 years man wow crazy
4:40. Everyone is thinking about Cliff right now. Even Rob. But especially the originals. Later you catch Kirk catching James in a moment. It's all fucking beautiful.
As much as I can't get into Metallica nowadays, this song is a very important part of me, it taught me things without even realizing it was, the polyrhythms, the riffs, the melody, the writing of the whole song is pure genius, it's just a perfect song from start to finish.. this is so thrash/prog
@@mattalan6618 that's a shame, master of puppets is a perfect album from start to finish, it's part of the foundation of metal and has influenced countless bands and musicians, and justice for all and ride the lightning are also just insanely superb albums, after that it's all down hill
turolretar Yeah.. You offenced Metallica with this.. They 2 are playng this song with strong felling every time you moron... 2 bad 4 you that you are born without any feelings.. You gotta be some "tough guy" right... Stoneage mentallity. Actually i feel sry 4 u dude...
In his defense, a lot of musicians dress up songs when playing them live from the studio versions. Granted it's not as prevalent for drummers to do it as guitarists but if it makes the song sound better than why not.
Maybe, maybe not. In truth I'm not a drummer, I'm a bass player. Overall I personally didn't think Lars drum fills were all that bad, but to each their own. I was just trying to give a reason for his dressing up the song.
![Metallica: Orion - Live In Gothenburg, Sweden (June 16, 2023) [Multicam]](/img/n.gif)
4:51 kirks is like " am i playing the right note? yes"
lol ^^
haha I also thought something like that
Haha looks like he's cheating in a math test
MRrocker983 meanwhile in the thoughts of James... I'm the fucking god 7w7
Dude's played that song so many times he could do it blindfolded.
"...only 99 more years to go..." i wish this were true... :(
You can see how deep James is in to this song. He looks at total peace.
🤘
I can't imagine the pressure Rob must be under every time he plays that solo but he pulls it off every time.
yeah its like that solo was written for him and only he could pull it off they way he does
dude rob is an amzing bass player, very, very techinchal, this is child's play for him tbh
@@FlechFisher Of course it's child's play anybody who picked up an instrument in his 1st one hour could play that easy tune
@@FlechFisher I don’t doubt that at all🤘🏻
Always so guy thinks strange crap like that I'm willing to bet he doesn't even play lol
4:34 I really think that James is thinking about Cliff... ;(
4:39 James was thinking about Cliff and Kirk knew it.
Its truly beautiful what kind of respect these guys build between each other.
the damn feels man
I agree
But then Kirk still look at James guitar. Maybe he look at him to take the tempo.
Excelent comment! Thank You!!
R.I.P Cliff Burton. Metallica FOREVER.
hetfield is a genius and orion is truly a masterpiece..metallica for life
YES
I think cliff wrote most of it
The way just James mentions Cliff gives me chills every time.
Cliff Burton is Epic, no one can replace him!
@@ignisdivinus7669 two people did and life moves on.
@@TheStrataminor yet they're still no match for Cliff
@@juliannnnnnnnnnnnn It ain't a competition. All Metallica's bassists have been amazing in their own right and deserve equal respect
Cliff would be proud.
I don't care what people say, Metallica is awesome still.
say it proud, just a bunch of ungratfull butthurts.
OHH YEAH !
But the funny thing is that people like the old songs.

One of the best songs ever written - by anyone.
What Robert did at 8:16 was purely epic in my opinion. Both sounded good and looked badass. Good job getting that, cameraman.
Its part of the song, he didn't just throw it in.
But yeah it's badass either way.
6:52 God bless you Cliff!
God can't bless him self
Cameraman does an excellent job at 4:55, beautiful framing.
absolutely. nobody wants / needs to see Lars anyway xD
chuduc vong
I don't hate Lars ^^ I was just joking because Toby Lee said the cameraman did an excellent job at 4:55, even though Lars isn't even in the picture
Toby Lee i was looking like what? This isn't such a beautiful frame. Then i realised lars isn't in it and laughed way to hard
The Mid Part From 4:27 to 7:14 Was my Wedding Song :)
+Hitman so did you smoke alot of WEED??
yeah... was great!!...glad someone got it!
congrats but I didn't get it :(
Kanwalmeet Singh mean that's a great part of the song to smoke a bowl too and loss yourself in the song;)
yeah that's true. One of my personal favourites
Robert is the master of bass. Excellent in every way.
you miss spelled Cliff Burton.
Censedwalnut50
A new sentence should always start with a capital letter.
+Raffie Quler Cliff is WAY better than Robert. Cliff is the master of bass.
Even Newstead is better but anyways...
Jason sucks compared to cliff
God bless Cliff Burton, R.I.P.

Kirk played the solos so well, I love the solos in this song
amazing performance. Robert on bass..... god bless Cliff Burton
+Coldacre People bash on Robert because he dont got backing vocals. But he's still the most talented member in metallica atm.

@@AlexRooneyComposer Better than Cliff?
been listening to Metallica for 10 years now. honestly, this is probably my favorite song if I had to choose. luckily i don't need to.
i have been listening metallica for 3-4 years and orion is my favorite song too, that song is Cliff's master piece
and to be honest i want to see any video of cliff playing the song but i cant find it :'c
Franco Romero He didint get to play it live , sad
@@frking77 They fully played Orion for the first time in 2006 20 years after Cliff's death
1987 - until now, me.
James at 2:03 XD and during the guitar duet at around 5:00 James is like *psssh I can play this with my eyes closed.* And kirks eyeing James like *shoot. Am I playing the right notes* XD
Morgan Palmer Dude: bunch of assholes.
+Tequilafilms Inc. That´s like, your opinion man
+Johnny DiedForOur Sins He treats objects, like women, man
They're not even playing the same notes on that part, he's just trying to time it perfectly with james
This is by far their best live performance of Orion
It’s truly awful. They’re playing four different times.
@@negativeindustrialbecause of lars probably 🤣
@@negativeindustrial two words: Lars Ulrich.
Check out their performance of it at Webster hall in New York from 2016. The best live performance of it I've seen, they all play it flawlessly, even Lars...
Lars's drum fills on this masterpiece are sometimes hit or miss. I still love you though! Tallica 4ever!!! \m/
I want this played at my funeral. My parents have been advised. Thank you Metallica \m/
Not to spoil your funeral, but it's too long.
Put it in a Will. You will probably outlive your parents, tell your family amd friends. And I agree with you.
the solos were spot on!!
Indeed! Very satisfying.
James Hetfield is one of the greatest guitar players to ever grace this planet. So effortless, never any mistakes, no need to look, it’s all coming from the heart. We as a human race are incredibly lucky.

The only thing that would’ve improved Metallica as a band would have been having another drummer. Lars is fucked in so many ways.
@@BLAZEREN101 Yeah Yeah Yeah...the fashionable thing to do is rag on Lars ...NEXT...!!
@@nonstoprocker5377 ehh I could say the same with your fanboyism.
Man! This jam is the best. Theripuitic.
I could watch it over again
Hey jessie, see u like slash
This song to me is the song of emotion let the instruments speak for themselves
Обожаю группу Metallica эту композицию Оrion я могу слушать часами да и вообще все их песни.
Escuchar el minuto 6:00 y que te den ganas de llorar Musica perfecta dios...
exacto
los mejores
+FelipeGutierreZeo concuerdo con tigo
y pensar que esta canción sonó en el funeral de Cliff
Siii😎
Rob is an awesome bassist...👌
he really is. to me he is one of the few bassits that could fit in almost any rock/metal band
4:28 thru 4:50.... the feeling you feel as your mind falls into the abyss of MUSIC at its absolute finest. salute.
Johnny Bananas that always sounds to me like how it would be to shoot up heroin lol
i would pay it 500 bucks per ticket just hear live this masterpiece, come to mexico soon
la tocaron en Costa Rica hace poco.....valió cada cinco que pague por la entrada!!
vienen a México en Marzo compadre. Como Jesucristo le dijo a aquel malhechor...........Nos veremos en el paraíso! 1 de Marzo 2017
Happy to say I was there. Shame they come on about 45 mins late but.
forever Metallica
One of the best live versions of this song
No me canso nunca de esta canción
I was at this gig. We were all getting the hint from Lars playing and James's singling out of Rob but when Rob played that first note, we all went insane, the sound in this clip doesn't quite capture it.
"God bless, Mr. Cliff Burton." Love it. Was a glorious day today.
I used to know this song as the bass song on the drive back from school I’d ask dad if we can listen to the bass song
This would go close to my favourite Metallica song. The bass is so good. Cliff would love this performance. Rob is awesome.
James at 4:50 at the start of the blues transition looks like he’s thinking he’s at the garage jamming with Cliff... 🤘🏽 we miss you Cliff
these videos help me relive the experience of being in the pit that night, watching linkin park then after they finished hearing the ecstacy of gold coming on, i wish i could go back again
He's incredible!!! Love him!!!! From Buena Park CA USA baby. Whittier CA ain't far from me where he grew up in!!! And also Santa Monica CA USA as well!!! Am just simply so very happy for him!!!
I'm not crying. You're crying. Shit is so moving still.
If you see on 4:32 when Rob restart the bass part, James looks to heaven remembering (securely) to Cliff… only Rob has the capacity to play like Cliff
This is celebration, of 10 years.... in metallica from MR. ROBER TRUJILLO !!
Wow I was it this concert! Cried when this was played
so nice to see them enjoying, i bet cliff was watching this and he goest :that's my guys
It's amazing how good they sound live. Unreal
The end of this video makes me cry :( God bless Cliff
Now almost 20! crazy. Jason played for 15 years. Both great bassists.
Cliff Lee Burton was like Jimy Hendrix in Bass... I LOVE IT !!!
They nailed it this time around. Even Kirk was fine. Cliff would be proud.
Who's cliff
@@shaunmorris8176 ...
the little bass riff between 7.04 and 7.06 seconds catch's my heart every time
OLD SCHOOL HEAVY METAL !!!!
1991-1992!!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Masterpiece. R.I.P. Cliff.
That was aweseome!
Wow! Awesome song to cover and you guys nailed it! So tight and on time! Great job!
Holy fuck rob has been in Metallica for 20 years it seems like not so long ago Jason left and the new bassist search was on wow fuck it is scary how fast time goes dam what have i done in 20 years man wow crazy

Haha at 4:45 to 5:40 he looks like he is cheating on a math test lmao
lmao
jaahahaha
Always loved and Always will 😘
That slide at 8:18 roberto trujillo does is badass!! glad he included that, very good version of the song 🤘🏼
I was there great show bring on Oct 2019 Sydney can't wait.
thanks this song is so cool
My favorite live version

Nie ma słów żeby opisac to wykonanie
I love Lars, but sometimes it must be hard for James, Kirk and Robert to play with the tempo being all over the place.
multiestonian maybe it gives energy of that pulse rythm
Just look at the bass solo, rob rushed it like hell xD
Every good band must have a bad drummer, an universal truth.

Pink Floyd
Metalica
@@Lasse3 i just hope im not a bad drummer for a good band because i get all my inspiration from lars😅
