James stated he 'lifted' the clean riff from some obscure band. Upon doing enough research, we found out what the song was. While the similarities are obvious, there are also big differences between the riffs in the two songs. James did his own twist. The other song is called 'Rainbow Warrior' by Bleak House. In ADDITION, there's a song called 'Down by the sea' by The Strawbs that has a riff that's A LOT like these two riffs. If anything, Metallica's riff is the most distinct of the bunch and sticks out the most. James did nothing wrong.
i can’t get over the dual harmony part imitating the vocals. probably the smartest thing this band has done and it’s so simple
Even the solo harmonizes with said harmony. It's beatiful
How do you know it isn't the vocals imitating the dual harmony?
