Enter Sandman Lyrics:
Say your prayers, little one, don't forget, my son
To include everyone
I tuck you in, warm within, keep you free from sin
'Til the Sandman, he comes
Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land
Something's wrong, shut the light, heavy thoughts tonight
And they aren't of Snow White
Dreams of war, dreams of liars, dreams of dragons' fire
And of things that will bite, yeah
Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land
Yeah, yeah
Now I lay me down to sleep (now I lay me down to sleep)
Pray the Lord my soul to keep (pray the Lord my soul to keep)
If I die before I wake (if I die before I wake)
Pray the Lord my soul to take (pray the Lord my soul to take)
Hush, little baby, don't say a word
And never mind that noise you heard
It's just the beast under your bed
In your closet, in your head
Exit light
Enter night
Grain of sand
Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land (yeah)
Oh, yeah, yeah, no
We're off to never-never land
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land
Take my hand
We're off to never-never land
We're off to never-never land
We're off to never-never land
We're off to never-never land

Now I want to see Metallica cover "Cirice".
Now that you say that, I do too.
That'd be kinda gnarly lol
ua-cam.com/video/dQPx3XktF6Y/v-deo.html not an actual cover but is the closest thing to it
That would be awesome bro!
Yeah or square hammer
It is recognisable, but also sounds like a Ghost song. That is quite impressive.
Yes, because decades ago people were doing the kind of music that Ghost does.
@@AF-dn2bz All I was pointing out is they managed a fine cover that sounded like them, whilst still keeping the spirit of the original. Not something everyone manages to do successfully.
@@mattyone78 That's true. I see your meaning.
theres nothing better for me, in terms of covers, when the song sounds like equal parts of both bands
The same what Volbeat did
This version is quite haunting in the beginning, and wasn't expecting the guitar. Hell yeah, I love it.
I feel you right there, that guitar drop was fucking AWESOME!
I gave it a chance cause ofbyou. Thanks
You must heard Alicia Cara and the warning cover 😍😍😉⚡⚡
You Spoiled it😐
@@alexbaggett9062 As said in above comment, someone gave it a chance because I said that. You won't regret it
It was really visionary of James Hetfield to write a song for Ghost, 30 years in advance
This used to be my favorite Metallica song. Now it's one of my favorite Ghost songs.
lyrics are from James but the main composer is Kirk. Maybe it's Kirk's vision
@@Wizard4169 Not even close to Metallica's best song...
Lmao, I love you for this. 🤣🤣🤣
Fucking awesome!! Good job James
Love them or Hate them, you can’t deny the musicianship with these guys is stellar!
So am I
and so are you :)
Love THIS
He does it all himself. The rest are paid to play his music.
I don’t see how you could hate🤘🏻
Yep. I may cringe at some of their lyrics personally, but there is no way to deny their talent, and style of rock is perfection
The clergy approves. As does my father, my father's father, my father's father's father, my father's father's father's father...
And the rats
Metal perty at home. 😁😁😁
.. And his father.
his father
But not the sister
This is brilliant .
Metal / goth / hard rock / psychedelic rock - whatever ya want to call it - this guy found a way to do what has been done already and but put his own idealism into the world of Rock. Very clever and imaginary.
I wanna call it call it power pop psychedelic death metal.
My father had Rush.
I had Ghost.
Ghost is the best band.
An unbelievably and beautifully creative band.
Yes no but actually no yes.
And that is the truth for real.
The marriage between two epic metal bands. It's like listening to Metallica but with the Ghost vibes. Absolutely stunning 👏👏👏
Ghost isn't a metal band.
@@m-h1217 ok
@@EternalPotato Not talking to you, so not sure why you're the one responding.
@@m-h1217 🤓
@@copias_lil_rat7835 Lol, you Ghost fans are so triggered by truth.
Damn, the piano on the chorus transforms the Metallica to a signature Ghost sound. I love it!
Check out Godsmacks' Nothing Else Matters blew my mind
Fucking love when these guys do covers. I want them them to cover Dead Man’s Party by Oingo Boingo so bad. Also Banana Rama’s Cruel Summer
I would die and go to heaven (hell?) if Ghost covered any Oingo Boingo.
I'm in!
Cruel summer is a great bet for a ghost cover
I've been trying to figure out the perfect Cure song for Ghost to cover. Right now I'm stuck on "Burn" from the Crow soundtrack, but they could do wonders with pretty much any of their darker tracks... "100 Years" would be metal AF!
GHOST is the genius of Tobias Forge....he could sing a shit song and it would be a f’n hit ! 👻
The addition of the piano makes it a much better cover. I’m usually not a huge fan of covers but this one is awesome cause I can listen to this and listen to Metallica’s version and have a totally different experience. Fantastic.
This is what a cover should be--reverent to the original, but re-interpreted in such a way to make it something completely new.
Well done.
I'd love to see Ghost cover more Metallica songs with their own rendition, this was a fucking killer, outstanding job guys, seriously and Tobias's vocals just fit right in, honestly the best rendition of a Metallica song I've ever heard
A ghost covers Metallica album.
But first, The Acoustic Album first bahaha
I mean especially on a "pop"song like enter sandman it gives a super cool result
@@whatoustudio Ghost covering Escape would be interesting.
You should check out Motörhead’s Enter Sandman cover. It’s amazing
Life long Metallica fan here, and this absolutely SLAPS!! I guarantee the band loves this.
They've toured together, they're mutual fans and by now probably friends; how can the guys NOT love this kick ass cover? It's pure Ghost. Just plain awesome.
Tobias was really worried that everyone (including the band) is going to hate this so this is nice to hear :D
James loves Ghost and I can guarantee he loves this tribute.
Favorite Metallica album though?
@@AsukaLangleyS02 ride the lightning
This cover is amazing feels like it would fit into netflix's adaptation of the sandman
...anyone....anyone?
YES! That's exactly what i thought. They really missed an opportunity here.
I was just thinking the same thing!!!
Your mind 😩😩😩
👀👀
Not really
I love how this sounds like a combination of all four Ghost albums.
I love how ghost always add something new to covers, making the song they cover something different and beautiful. I love the song so much
That's how a cover should be. Not try to make the song exactly like the original. I heard a cover Anthrax did in recent years and it sounded almost exactly like the original. It was insane.
@@melovemusic69 yeah exactly. that doesn’t mean that covers that sounds the same aren’t good…it’s just…they don’t add anything and if they’re so similar I’m just gonna listen to the original.
@@melovemusic69 Euhm, are you the authority on how to make a cover? Also, this is by far the worst cover Ghost ever did, in my opinion offcourse.
Wow if I didn't grow up on Metallica and never heard this song before, I would never expect this song was a cover. This is so ghost, Tobias makes it so fresh and new great job! 💜
Wouldn’t that be true for every song…since you haven’t heard the original?
@@martinangelov1667 I was thinking this. if they never heard the song wouldn't they not expect it to be a cover?
@@martinangelov1667 there's a movie just about that.
But with The Beatles. One day this guy wakes up and only he knows who were the Beatles, and basically he start playing their stuff and says that he made all that. Everyone believes, after all, no one ever heard of The Beatles before.
Ghost does great covers ... but covering Metallica is like covering the doors....no one wants to hear it...love Ghost
@@rjreibert well I do want to hear it. :)
I love when Tobias sings in a low key, it gives me chills.

Who doesn't know the lyrics to Enter Sandman?
No crap
I watched Ghost open for Metallica live in Berlin two years ago....this is a dream come true
I know! I wanted them to officially put it together for so long... now it finally here🖤
Same in Copenhagen 💪
Same in Paris 👌
Should have been metallica that opened for ghost tbh
Geiles Konzert gewesen
This song fits Ghost so well, I love this
I will agree with that.
Is this even a Ghost comment section without a single "bUt ThEy'Re NoT mEtAl"?
But in all seriousness, this fucking rocks.
When a cover is this good it really doesn't matter what genre of music he comes from.
Not metal-doesn’t matter still rocks
I don't really care whether they fit the genre they say it is or whatever, for me every song is a song, i like some and don't like some, my playlist could switch from super cute bubbly song to punk rock because i like both.😂
Tobias is the best thing to ever happen to modern music, he is such a genius. There is nothing he can't do, and all he does is simply perfect, everything from ABBA to Metallica. Thank you for everything Tobias and please come to Jutland so I can experience Ghost live :D
Saw ghost at a maiden concert, theyre badass
@@brendanjanowiak3244 maiden audience sucked
Remember when Ghost and Candlemass were covering that song and people were BEGGING them to release an official version of it?
Well here we go. This is literally THAT version.
Im totally in love with it ❤
I think it would only work with Rob Lowe Candlemass, Johan or Messiah wouldn’t be that good a fit
Ghost + Metallica + covers has me suddenly wanting a Ghost rendition of the Ecstasy of Gold
i totally wouldnt mind more covers in the style of Ghost, that was great.
Yes please YES!!! I'd pay good money for that
Ecstasy of Gold isn't a Metallica piece.
@@ironnads7975 No one said that
@@ironnads7975 No one said it was.
I am not a big Metalica fan, but if I say I don't like this, I will be a liar. Feels good to have new music. Also, this band never disappoints when it comes to making good covers.
I agree
only Ghost can cover a song thats this beloved and actually make it equally as good, the quiet intro and the piano in the melody, totally awesome!
This song is difficult to cover properly, at least to me. Of course, Ghost pulls it off! Best of the Blacklist I've heard so far.
Agreed
I think the trick is not trying to do it like Metallica; only Metallica is Metallica. Put your own spin on it
Definitely in my top 10 of the blacklist. St. Vincent's Sad but True, Juanes' Enter Sandman, Jon Pardi's Wherever I may roam, Miley Cyrus' Nothing Else Matters, and Corey Taylor's Holier than Thou are also very good.
@@joelmonteiro1419 I totally agree! There are certainly some gems here, and I'd add Ha*Ash's cover of The Unforgiven (probably my personal favorite at the moment)
@@AtlasGuitar oh yes, that one is also pretty good.
I’m so glad I found this band (even if I am super late) their music makes me so Gods damn happy!! Don’t even get me started on the members, I absolutely adore them all!! I love watching their dynamics and interactions up on stage and in interviews. I’m so in love with everything about this band 🤍💀
You are never too late to enjoy something. Welcome, my friend
Their live dynamic is unlike any band I've seen before... Totally fucking entertaining!!!
Same here ....man I need to get out more ....this band is awesome !!!!
What year are you referring to?
There's a world of difference between 2016 and 2019.
@@watersnake5319 Well, I didn’t get into Ghost up until August of this year. So I suppose 2019? Then again I’m not too sure of the context for your question.
1:56-2:18 is one of the coolest guitar solos ever, thank you for existing Ghost
Fredrik Akesson * he is the performer of the solo
Sounds like you need to hear some more guitar solos lmao
One of the best covers ever. How beautiful is heavy metal
Ah! Finally!!!!! ❤🤘Missed the band so much! ❤
I agree, been completely quiet even here in Sweden
Out of the whole damn #Blacklist this was THE COVER I WAS WAITING ON.
Every other song sucks on it, I listened to it yesterday and nearly died when J balvin song came on😵 I get what they were trying to do, but nah... Stick to real musicians next time Metallica!
@@mrheadlessa nah the Hu and Phoebe Bridgers covers were bangers
@@mrheadlessa Cage the Elephant did good
SAME! I’m not disappointed
tbh this one and corey taylors cover of "holier the thou" was good too. he can practically cover anything
That voice! Simply amazing.
I love how Tobias made this cover in his own style. I must admit that he has such a creative style and talent when it comes to music.
So good. So Ghostly. No expectations and am completely blown away again.
Never been so excited for a cover! Everything ghost touches is gold
Everything the touches "becomes" gold haha
Totally agree!
HAIL SATAN! 🤘💀🤘
@@ZENPARANORMAL1 No that was just the live version. I'm pretty sure Tobias recorded this separately.
@@ZENPARANORMAL1 This is a completely different, studio version. That one was live, and nowhere near as polished, or as totally Ghost sounding. It also didn't have Tobias' son during the prayer section!
You are a gold too
I've first heard about Ghost when they were touring with Iron Maiden years ago. So my first experience with them was a live experience! The sound was so unique and of course the visuals. Big fan since then.
That was my introduction to them as well! My brother took me to see them at the Jiffy Lube stadium in Virginia. I was in awe at their performance and stage presence. After that I got a grucifix tattoo on my forearm.
I learned about them because they were touring with Amon Amarth last year and i was supposed to go. Unfortunately, hurricane hit and i couldnt go (florida), but they are damn good at what they do.
Chills man. Chills. Tobias just has that touch to make a cover fresh. Love Ghost and this cover.
This is how you make a cover! Tobias always put his style when covering a song. Enter sandman is so popular, that we, Metallica fans don't really care to much about her anymore, or Nothing else matters. We get tired of this songs. But, Ghost put a new air. Nice!
Love the take Ghost took on this classic. Kept the feel and intent of the original but added that reverent, worship church type mood to it.
My favorite Metallica song. I never thought I'd hear a cover that I liked as well as (maybe better than!) the original.
No.
@@vexty7884 yes you are correct. No.
If ES is favorite Metallica song you’re not a real Metallica fan.
@MJF Shut up keep the hate to yourself it doesn't mean ur not a Metallica fan 😒
@@mjf5382 Don't think I claimed to be a "real" Metallica fan. I like some songs and not others. I've seen them live but only because my SO at the time was a more die-hard fan than I am. So feel free to gatekeep the Metallica fandom as much as you want; doesn't affect me at all.
These guys are amazing. This cover is amazing. There is nothing that they put out that I don't love

Greetings to you all from Canada, and rock on!
I will honestly never get tired of hearing Tobias sing. Something about his soft, yet powerful vocals is just so appealing and unique compared to the average singer.
It’s not Tobias is papa
@@kevbotchillTobias is papa…
bruh i grew up with metallica,korn, linkin park, nirvana, limp bizkit, the offspring etc (you get the memo) and the ghost remake of enter sandman is great like im happy to have found this band 😭🙏
I really like how they harmonized the pre-chorus.
This was fucking epic. I love Metallica and I love ghost.
La versión más honesta de este álbum sin menospreciar las otras bandas, amo las dos bandas y espero escuchar muy pronto lo nuevo de Ghost.
Si honesta te refieres a que es lo más parecido a la original si, pero lo que buscaba Metallica es que rediseñaran sus canciones a la manera de cada banda, que si bien Ghost la adaptó bien a su estilo, me quedo con la versión de The Warning y Alessia Cara. Aunque aclaro, esta también me fascinó.
@@LuisMendoza1085 completamente de acuerdo, este es un simple cover muy bien ejecutado
la de The warning para mi gusto es mejor
Si con honesta te refieres a imitación, ok, digo la música es buena pero es muy parecido al original, así que pues esto es meramente la original con sutiles cambios pero no es una version 2.0 como la versión de The Warning y Alessa Cara.
Creo que hay otros covers con mas identidad, y que le dan un aire diferente a la cancion que le hicieron el cover, este cover es bueno, pero no hace que deje de lado la original.
@@LuisMendoza1085 el que adapto sin duda su estilo e hizo algo totalmente rompedor (para mal) fue J Balvin XD
Este hermoso cover me quito el mal rato que me hizo pasar el *"Cover que hizo jbalvin"* *MUCHAS GRACIAS* 😎🤟🏻🔥

Forever a loyal fan to Ghost! Can't wait to see what else the future brings this band. Ghost4life!
Tobias Forge is the only man that can make a cover sound like it's new
Maybe he does have a deal with the Devil and the joke's on us 😂
Ok these guys are like magical, how are they allowed to change a classic song and do a great job?
Hermoso cover, con el toque unico de la imcomparable Ghost.
Awesome to finally hear something new from Ghost. Here's hoping a new album is coming soon!
Tobias did say this fall, so most likely sometime in October.

My ears are melting from the pleasure of hearing this beautiful cover 😍
Tobias sounds as good as ever on this knowing he's a huge metallica this must have been awesome for him
I love that piano way in the back during the heavy part. It’s so Ghost!!🙌🏻
this will be epic
I knew it... es tan épico que ahora puedo hablar en español 🤘🤘🇨🇱
*This IS epic
I LOVE THIS!!! The whole thing was done so well! I'm so happy to see the love for both Metallica and GHOST!
Well, as a huge Metallica fan myself, this Blacklist has singlehandedly gotten me to look into both Volbeat, and Ghost. No disappointment to me.
Loving the piano/keyboards on this...sets it apart
hearing tobias sing “hush, little baby” just makes me go hm, yes 🤌🏼 lol
This is SO GOOD holy SHIT!!! We missed u so much, if this is the level of quality we can expect going forward I can't wait to see what else you guys do!!!
This cover of Metallica is brilliant the way Tobias puts his iconic Ghost sound in to it ❤
Love this cover! They should cover Cry Little Sister, that would be sick.
or maybe "I Still Believe" ? lol
I have a feeling anything Tobias covers will be epic. He is an extremely talented musician.
They always add their touch, it is very characteristic and electrifying, in Argentina we wait for you🇦🇷
Im getting stoked and impatient at the same time. I cant wait for the next masterpiece of Ghost and a tour!!!!
I know what you mean bro😢
WOW!!!...One of my fav Metallica songs and Ghost did a BRILLIANT job covering it! Love it!!
Holy shit I just found these guys like 30 mins ago and I can’t stop listening to them
Yes, congrats, that happened to me three months ago as well, still going strong. You've now sold your soul to them. And you won't regret it :)
This sound is more Ghost than Ghost. Nailed it again, Tobias
Yeah, this Tobias guy really sounds like the Ghost frontman
💯 %
@@CHNO-cm1rd Right? You'd think this Tobias guy was Papa himself or something! ;)
@@neuralmute nahhh that's crazy, everybody knows Papa's identity is a secret

It's a song I never needed to hear again, but by God, I've already listened to this 10 times now. Great work, guys!!!
First time I listened this I was just blasting ghost music in my AirPods full volume around 3am and didn’t expect this at all and now I do this every time and it’s absolutely amazing
I finally listened to the whole Blacklist album last week (yeah, I know, late to the party). This was one of the few songs on the whole 4-disc compilation that I would listen to again. Good job, Ghost.
Absolutely incredible. For some reason I've always wanted to hear them cover Alice Coopers Brutal Planet
I had never thought about it, but I bet Ghost would do a killer version of Brutal Planet.
Omg yes!!🖤
Yes, it would be pretty cool.
BRILLIANT I've missed Ghost so much
Absolutely outstanding!!
That's why this band is the most awesome discover I did in almost 30 years listening to Rock/Metal!!
the best and most original metallica cover i've ever heard 🤘i totally love it and cant stop listening to this
Hablar de Ghost en una lengua que no sentí desde la cuna, le quita expresividad y potencia a lo que diré: AMO a esta banda.
Finalmente lançaram esse cover maravilhoso 🖤🇧🇷
siimm
You dont know how happy i am after i found this. Enter sandman is one of my favorite metal song and seeing my beloved ghost cover it had me nuts! Man i love this band they just made everything i dream for to life
One of the very few bands that can cover Metallica successfully and with a unique twist.
Goddamn Tobias, don't ever stop being this fucking amazing
At this point I'd be willing to listen to a cover of Despacito by Ghost but please for the love of Beelzebub release something
😂😂 Same
pff love the arrangement on the chorus voices, simply magnificent,
Ghost never disappoints! Absolutely amazing cover!!
I LOVE it!! Tobias even gets in the "HA's" & "whoo-ah's" where they are supposed to be lol! I love love love Ghost!🥰🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 black hearts for everyone
This is a masterpiece, love Tobias’ voice😩❤️
Song & voice goes very well together 🙂
He has such a beautiful voice
Really, how did Tobias do this, this is so awesome, everything about this cover, for me at least, is perfect. I really, really hope someday they would do cover on Symphony of destruction, maybe in the style of Rats. All in all, rarely does a cover hit the strides of the original, but this piece of music does that and even in some parts is better.
I love this cover so much 😭
¡Los extrañamos! Vuelvan pronto 💔
Siiii 😭😭😭😭
Santos bacalaos es la jefa :0

Johy te amo

Amazing! Just Amazing! Metallica must be proud of you guys. BRAVO!!!
What I love about this cover is the keyboards are in e major where the original version is in e minor. Especially in the chorus.
Clicked this cause like anyone I was curious
I wasn't sure about at the beginning
Glad I stuck through it
