To get a compliment from someone like Elton John who's notorious in the past for being brutally honest when talking about other artists is really saying something about Metallica.
@@kskip4242nah 😂😂😂😂 Dave didint touch anything after ride the lighting.. he wrote, most solos on kill ‘em all, 3 riffs from ride the lighting. That’s it
@@Mixxxeshlat Fr like yes Dave had a lot of early Metallica material and if I’m not mistaken has like one riff on AJFA but definitely not one or nothing else matters
James, ive known you since you were at Carlton Melsons place at p7 in richmond-yeah, ive fuckin been around FOR YOUR WHOLE FKN CAREER..AND IVE NEVER SEEN YOU CRY SOBER.. This meant the world to you bro. Congrats!
I can only imagine he was probably think right at that moment about his parents or more specifically maybe his mother . Perhaps that was finally the moment of “ See I told you I could do “ voice in his head speaking to his parents .
@metalism21 no one wants to see your face. You didn't do anything. Stop acting like you did. You're not the main character. No one cared about you when it comes to James and Elton.
It made James tear up when elton John commented about Nothing else matters. Nd james was afraid to release this track because it had emotion behind it.
What a mind explosion for James to hear that . I mean coming from an icon like that …… had to be a complete OMFG experience !! Another awsome accomplishment to James and Metallica as a band !!😃😀😃
No band outside of classical composers incites more of "the feels" from me than Metallica. They have a huge influence on the way i play, write and build song structure.
There is a voice coach who sings in 18 languages and sung with operas all over the joint, and she went back and forth and said how pretty the music at the beginning was. Thats when I knew why I liked Metallica, real thought out music instead of just a sequence of notes.
Coming from one of the greatest composers, musicians, writers of all time and all of it is right on the money. Three different musicians from different genres who completely respect and admire each other's music and do better than Howard Stern to bring them all together
I'm pretty sure James didn't sleep too well that night. He was probably rolling in his bed smiling like a little kid. "One of the best songs, spoken by none other than Sir Elton John. That didn't just happen, did it? It did. It fucking happened." Man, can't describe what I sense from him here. And Lars read the situation like only a best friend can: Not gonna make James talk. If he does, he'll cry and he doesn't want to do that.
ONE of the best songs ever written! I mean it’s clear as day bro! I am a METALLICA influencer, facts are facts. Elton John DID NOT call NEM the best song ever written so why say different???

‘One’ and ‘Nothing Else Matters’. Perfect songs
Agreed!
Pretty sure Dave wrote those...

For the first time in history James teared up
Watch this ua-cam.com/video/uVOXZ8ld7pg/v-deo.html
He also cried a river when he fired Mustaine
He also cried when Jason did not hug him when they played together
He also cried when he got divorced…probably
Cliff Burton disagrees
One of the greatest singers and musicians in human history casually describing YOUR song as one of the greatest ever written. I'd cry too.
What a honor getting a tribute from Elton John like that👍❤️❤️❤️❤️
Best part is, James hates the song...
@@Abysss6942 I don't think he hates it, he just wanted it to be private
James is emotional to get such compliments from Elton......
This recognition of his talent and the talent of the band...
Game recognizes game.
Sir Elton dropping an F bomb made me lol!
wimp
What else can ya do but tear up when one of the greatest of all time give you that kinda compliments. Thanks for sharing that was awesome
James, ive known you since you were at Carlton Melsons place at p7 in richmond-yeah, ive fuckin been around FOR YOUR WHOLE FKN CAREER..AND IVE NEVER SEEN YOU CRY SOBER..
This meant the world to you bro.
Congrats!
🤘🤘🤘
It's it true. The Unforgiven as well. Powerful shit
Unforgiven is also a masterpiece 🤘
Check out the bluegrass version from Iron Horse of Unforgiven-- completely different sound to that song. Really makes the lyrics come forward, IMO
🤘
@@PearsAreOkaywow, that's really interesting how the song plays out with the different sound.
I fell in love in the 80s. To their music
Powerful music back then.
True it's even cooler learning it on guitar and playing it live
that respect felt good
The name of that song is already beautiful...no other song have that name.......
En español existe la cancipn "uno" de Carlos Gardel.😂
Absolutely beautiful
God this was an awesome moment!
l adore sir elton and awww he made james cry
For another 2000 years this song 🎵 will be the best
Simply Incredible
"it's fucking great actually"
it really is amazing.
I can only imagine he was probably think right at that moment about his parents or more specifically maybe his mother .
Perhaps that was finally the moment of “ See I told you I could do “ voice in his head speaking to his parents .
I really liked your perspective 👍🤘
Wow what a compliment
That song certainly got me every time I’d play it. Fantastic!
Humbleness
I love how James tears up knowing THE Elton John said his song is “fucking amazing”
Love Elton
And the lyrics are so relatable too
One my fav bands n Elton..iconic...
What an honor. To hear that coming from him. I would be totally floored.
Ride the lightening hooked me in 1984
A wonderful compliment from one who knows.
That's high praise from a legend.
If Sir Elfon say this about your song, it is worth more than every grammy or any other award
Hundred percent agree ❤
Wow. ❤😢
Wow now that's powerful coming from Elton John I mean what a great compliment from one legend to another 💯💯👍👍😎
Great artist together
When a man like Elton John says your band is the cream de la cream.you know your the shit
Dude, the opinions of internet losers no longer matter. Elton John said that Metallica is the greatest.
Elton John has never made good music
@@jamesduncan6729😆
@@jamesduncan6729lol, you're such an asshole.😅
And unforgiven
What a beautiful compliment…hits James pretty hard!
Now that Sir Elton John right there
Their cover of brothers in arms is a masterpiece
❤❤❤
a band métallica yes my king of heave metal yes ok ! .
If you had a panel of musicians selecting best songs and albums,,the Grammy's would be worth to see
When u get old nothing else matters I like sometimes I'm alone sometimes I am not😅😅😅😅
When he's right, he's right.
I remember the first time I heard it
❤❤
Its a masterpiece
this is why Dream theater played ELTON. AND MILEY LOOKS LIKE DOLLY PARTON. METALLICA ARE BEAUTIFUL. AND THIS IS BEAUTIFUL.
True dat❤❤❤❤
Totally unnecessary shot of random nobody at the start
:))
@metalism21 no one wants to see your face. You didn't do anything. Stop acting like you did. You're not the main character. No one cared about you when it comes to James and Elton.
Been trying to convince people of that since i saw them in '83.
That is a moment in music history
If I m not mistaken, He said the same thing about the song One...
Can you confirm it ?
I don't remember, but I will check
I think you’re thinking of Jack Black, who has said that he thinks One is the best song ever written.
That's SIR ELTON JOHN, HE OF THE FIFTY-YEAR RECORD-BREAKING CAREER SAYING THAT.
It made James tear up when elton John commented about Nothing else matters. Nd james was afraid to release this track because it had emotion behind it.
Humbled.
James was 21 when he wrote Nothing Else Matters, Musical genius Imo. Plus all the other masterpieces they have gifted to the 🌎
They are great songs...bravo bravo
🤘🤘
It’s just Elton GUSHING, because gushing is self-love, is narcissism 101, he’s just getting off on his own opinion, or rather others esteeming it 😃
This is by far the best reward Metallica can get
Elton John is always a stand up guy
Thankyou El. You mad buggah🤘
Elton has been a fan of theirs since 1991, when they played the Freddie Mercury tribute.
What a mind explosion for James to hear that . I mean coming from an icon like that …… had to be a complete OMFG experience !! Another awsome accomplishment to James and Metallica as a band !!😃😀😃
The greatest gave so much praze to the greats...cant get much better
That's high praise
He didn’t say its the best song he said its one of the best songs. Regardless its very high praise from the likes of Elton obviously.
No band outside of classical composers incites more of "the feels" from me than Metallica. They have a huge influence on the way i play, write and build song structure.
It shows how great Elton John is and how great Metallica is.im a fan of the former not latter but I know Nothing Else matters is really great
Metallica’s songs really are great, so much more than the kind of head banging music other bands dish up. Rock on guys!
Melodic!☝️ Metal doesn't has to be merely noise.
I'm 61 and I love Metallica.
If Elton John says hello to me and walks away I’’d pass out. Imagine if he tells me I have written the best song he ever heard. 😂
There is a voice coach who sings in 18 languages and sung with operas all over the joint, and she went back and forth and said how pretty the music at the beginning was. Thats when I knew why I liked Metallica, real thought out music instead of just a sequence of notes.
He is retiring soon..good luck Elton😊
I feel like "Orion" is a masterpiece.
They were done in the 80's..... Megadeth forever
Coming from one of the greatest composers, musicians, writers of all time and all of it is right on the money. Three different musicians from different genres who completely respect and admire each other's music and do better than Howard Stern to bring them all together
EJ couldn't name but one "of those kinds of bands."
I'm pretty sure James didn't sleep too well that night. He was probably rolling in his bed smiling like a little kid. "One of the best songs, spoken by none other than Sir Elton John. That didn't just happen, did it? It did. It fucking happened."
Man, can't describe what I sense from him here. And Lars read the situation like only a best friend can: Not gonna make James talk. If he does, he'll cry and he doesn't want to do that.
Thanks for the comment. You're absolutely right.
For once Elton John is right.... Nothing else matters IS and ALWAYS will be the best song, ever made
🤘🤘
For once?
He ain’t wrong
Invisible kid never see what he did! Lol😂
....and it's been way too long since I've listened to this song ...time to pull it up and enjoy....I'm out. Metal Up Your A$$ my friends ✌️
*trash can snare bangs in the distance*
😂 Bob Rock following behind saying its a great idea.
What about saint anger..Sir
ELTON JOHN IS ANOTHER JIMMY SAVILE
Whooooo wants a bud liiiiigjht? You dooo dats hoooo , yes you do
Haha geeey
Rip
Whiplash!
Hetfield is like , " i wrote this shitfaced outta my mind and EJ says its the best song ever written? " wow... 😂
I thought James was feeling "Oh fuck, did he say NEM is one of the best song? It's not even Black Album's best song..."
ONE of the best songs ever written! I mean it’s clear as day bro! I am a METALLICA influencer, facts are facts. Elton John DID NOT call NEM the best song ever written so why say different???
James hetfield reacts proceeds to cut most of james out the video 🤣🤣🤣
The full video is on YT and worth watching.
