    To me, there has never been a song that has captured the feeling, rather, the presence of space like this one. Particularly in the intro, with the booming, vibrating and astronomical sounding bass. It truly sounds like how space looks like. I’m not sure how they did it, but this song is space in music form. It’s so beautiful

    I see Orion as a sign of the band's maturity, a stepping stone from Call Of Ktulu, and a symbol of optimism. As though things can only get better.
    And then Cliff died. Then 1989 brought a more hopeless sounding album and their darkest instrumental. And the progression to hope dwindled.

    Orion is a prominent constellation located on the celestial equator and visible throughout the world. It is one of the most conspicuous and recognizable constellations in the night sky. It was named after Orion, a hunter in Greek mythology.

What was amazing was that the constellation was tipped over so that the three stars in the belt were nearly vertical! I swear I found myself thinking about the song, and could almost hear Cliff’s magnificent bass lines resounding in my mind. It was a truly magical moment!! RIP Cliff Burton!

      Its really weird how the right music can turn up at the right moment. I remember having a massive asthma attack, camping, lying pretty much on my back, thinking I was going to die. Led Zepplins "all of my love" was on the radio, and I remember drifting in and out of consciousness while iit played thinking "What is this beautiful song that I seem to be dying to" and then I was being loaded into an ambulance (Apparently my brother cottoned on and ran for help, this was in the days before mobile phones, but i was too hypoxic to really remember what happened. Just that tune. I think the tune kept me alive somehow, as if my brain was saying "Must keep awake long enough to finish hearing this song". It took me a few years before I finally worked out what the song was and what it was called.

    My son Orion (Greek: Ωρίων)is named after this song. While my wife was pregnant we used to walk by the lake during covid times to avoid the city, looking at the constellation of Orion. We are both Metallica fans and 2.5 years since then, this is my son“s favourite sleeping song. All of his life so far he has been listening to this masterpiece before going to bed. As a matter of fact he is listening to this right now, as he is slowly falling asleep. I also got astronomy as a hobby. Who would have thought that a young bassist from earth would ever had such an influence to the universe.

    When all metal heads ascend to heaven they will hear instead of an angel choir the most incomprehensible and beautiful bass solo. They will then realize that it is cliff Burton creating cosmic symphonies and creating stars and planets with only a bass, cliff Burton was the beginning and his death was not the end.
