Honestly, I am convinced this is the greatest song ever written (of course in my opinion). The way it just starts out so calm and then just evolves into a super fast, and brutal finish. God, I LOVE this song.
Maverick McFarlane Maybe you will, probably not, but maybe. David Gilmour hasn't gotten sloppy. Scott Ian hasn't gotten sloppy. Kirk has, and so has Lars, the lazy fuck.
Is 4:25 any one else's favorite part of the song? I love how the guitar changes to match the rhythm of the drums. I get pumped every time I hear that part.
Tai Kamiya I’m not disagreeing with you man but it really isn’t hard to play give it a try it’s quite easy and yes I mean on real guitar I learned it by ear and it’s really fun to play
@@kjl3080I don’t, but I noticed the sound was less grainy sounding and compressed compared to the studio version. More audibly clear so I could tell he was playing this.
The biggest challenge with this song which is even harder than the solo is not giving into the urge to start drumming with your legs in this part 04:09
I've listened to a ton of music over my years but damn man. Kirk Hammett was just possessed by whatever spirit embodied this kind of music and it came out in these sick songs and solos. I don't even really think things like that happen often but I'll be damned if that didn't happen to Kirk when he was making music with Metallica in the 80s. Legendary and real gift. Nice cover btw.
This song one of the timeless masterpieces that will be listened and loved for the next 500 years. This song is definitely one of the top 25 greatest songs of all time. But some people on here go overboard calling it number 1. Remember people you songs out there like cemetery gates - Pantera, Smells like Teen Spirit- Nirvana, Alice In Chains- man in the box and so many others that can make the same argument.
I'm commenting this 7 years later but it still is one of the greatest songs I have ever heard... And you have played it absolutely beautifully... Salute to you :)
IVAN3DX So? I meant that he nailed it, in the sense that ha did not make any timing errors, and that he didn't have any extra unwanted noise in his playing... As they say, it is just not what you hear, but what you don't hear.
5:11 - 7:16 this part could be the best guitar riff/solo ever written you can feel the pain and despair, god damn it this part is so good every time when shit happens to me I'd just keep looping this part, because I can totally relate to it, as if the song understand me
With a copy of photoshop I could give you those tats. Is it really that hard to just acknowledge this young man's playing? You have to shit on an obvious joke? Fucking really, son?
I keep wondering what makes someone deslike this video... like wtf? It's a pretty good cover, very clean and well played. What's wrong with the video that makes them deslike it? Probably just jealous of dem skilzzzz haahah sry for bad english
João Pedro my first time watching this when I opened the video it had the dislike button blue. Even though I never watched the video before for some reason it said I disliked it it happens to me for a lot of videos
omg!!!!!!!!!!!! finally ive found a guitarist who plays each and every "one" of his covers to absolute perfection. well done mate. keep up the good work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this was the first guitar cover i ever saw, got so happy that in 2 weeks my first electric guitar will arrive (a sg special) finally can play one of my fav songs :)
What a amazing skill you have, you nailed it perfect. Even Kirk can't nail those solos like that anymore when playing live. A quick tip: when tapping really fast (5:37), try using your finger instead of pick. I guess in this case it doesn't matter but I've discovered that tapping with a pick isn't that accurate and kind of harder to control. Well just my opinion, keep up the good work!
Holy crap, you are good! You, Hetfield, and Hammett play the way I dream of playing! I don't play at all and have always regretted not taking up lessons years and years and years ago. But I dream of it! I love heavy metal sound, especially Hetfield's riff in the last 20 or so seconds of this song. If I could even play that I would do it all day. I'm following you for sure now!
man these guys doing this video is the soul reason why i love live instruments. the guitar, and the drum riff at the end is one of the top 3 best i ever heard. one of the others being thunderstruck at the beginning and as far as drums i love I wanna be free by the ohio players. the drum solos in that track by diamond is dynamite
@@elfinheimer I’ve been stuck on that part for so long and it still sounds terrible. Whenever I look at tabs it’s showing that I’m supposed to be hitting 11p9 on G string then an open string on the D string and it so difficult. I don’t know if that’s the correct way to do it but when I look at covers, it doesn’t look like that’s how it’s supposed to be.
Absolutely top drawer! Really well played with a great sound. I've never tried to play this song but now I'm going to try and learn it. Might take a while though.
Charles O'Kenneth the guitars are never ever split in the UA-cam backing tracks, there are two guitars in this song (Hetfield and Hammett) he is playing the lead guitar (kirk hammett) for some reason people don't split them and usually just call it "guitar backing track" and remove both at once. Unfortunately he cannot play two guitars at once.
Very good cover bro I only heard a couple mistakes but seeing and hearing are 2 different things aside from that you nailed it. The tap solo was a bit fast at first but no need to fret it never hurts to over achieve. 👍
Here are the lyrics: I can't remember anything Can't tell if this is true or dream Deep down inside I feel to scream This terrible silence stops me Now that the war is through with me I'm waking up, I cannot see That there's not much left of me Nothing is real but pain now Hold my breath as I wish for death Oh, please God, wake me Back in the womb, it's much too real In pumps life that I must feel But can't look forward to reveal Look to the time when I'll live Fed through the tube that sticks in me Just like a wartime novelty Tied to machines that make me be Cut this life off from me Hold my breath as I wish for death Oh, please God, wake me Now the world is gone, I'm just one Oh, God, help me Hold my breath as I wish for death Oh, please God, help me Darkness imprisoning me All that I see, absolute horror I cannot live, I cannot die Trapped in myself Body, my holding cell Landmine has taken my sight Taken my speech, taken my hearing Taken my arms, taken my legs, taken my soul Left me with life in hell

Best song ever written... So true
Jesus Christ....That solo couldn't have been more perfected and sound just like Kirk Hammett's. Bravo, good sir, bravo.
Even Kirk can't play his own solos as well as this dude did
+Arko Dark Yeh, 20 years ago. He sucks now, sloppy as hell.
Lance Pate Let's see you play hundreds and hundreds of tours in a year for 30 consecutive years.

3:05 one of the best written parts of the song, and you NAILED it! :D
He totally did.
metallicarocks911 Meh, that part it's not that hard.

you can feel the pain and despair, god damn it this part is so good

@lawszepie What a great way to explain that part, it truly does a good job making a person feel despair.
WOW I HAVE NEVER SEEN SUCH UNBELIEVABLE ACCURACY FOR THE SOLO, YOU ALIGNED SO WONDERFULLY WITH THE REAL SONG
It’s so amazing because it’s in sync with the music perfectly.... just absolutely amazing

The intro is something incredible,and the solo is something tight as hell...super cover man
I love how this is all played in 1 take.
The moment I saw that picking at @5.37 tears out of my eyes!
Dude the switch from the clean to heavy riffs.... Damn that was good man!
Words escape me. This is truly brilliant. I know this song so well and I couldn’t fault this. Loved the improvisation.
No comprendo por que hay gente que le da dislike cuando este es el mejor cover de one.
Excelente sonido.
Si
This sounds so perfect and relaxing.. Almost like the original tbh too 👌
who else came here just for 4:28
5:37 was the actual “one”
ilyes rosso MEE
No, I'm here just for 3:05
The best part!
4:28 wrong fret,it must be in 2nd fret em not C ,this guy become famous for his fake guitar cover
start to finish that was incredible gave me goosebumps
How the hell did you get every nuance in that guitar solo? You perfected stuff that I didn’t even realize was in the song. Bravo
That part @1.22 is amazing. The way it changes, just brilliant.
this was the first guitar cover i ever saw, got so happy that in 2 weeks my first electric guitar will arrive (a sg special)
finally can play one of my fav songs :)
Man, you make everything seem so easy... bloody awesome!
Don't understand how anyone can get to 4:28 and not violently headbang into oblivion while playing this
KZ3fps whiplash be crazy
the first time I heard this I think I almost broke my neck
If I didn’t get immediate migraines I would definitely but for now my neighbors will have to do it for me I’ll just supply the music

You should play with a backing track
so true

Cut him some slack brother. He has arthiritis and struggles with a Wah Addiction.
They are playing it faster live
He was past his golden age, but does'nt mean he can't play the solo in a cool way anymore. He can play it, but not like in his golden age

Hey swathewhitepig can you a guitar cover of Metallica For Whom The Bell Tolls?
5:37... I just... wow
Here are the lyrics:
I can't remember anything
Can't tell if this is true or dream
Deep down inside I feel to scream
This terrible silence stops me
Now that the war is through with me
I'm waking up, I cannot see
That there's not much left of me
Nothing is real but pain now
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh, please God, wake me
Back in the womb, it's much too real
In pumps life that I must feel
But can't look forward to reveal
Look to the time when I'll live
Fed through the tube that sticks in me
Just like a wartime novelty
Tied to machines that make me be
Cut this life off from me
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh, please God, wake me
Now the world is gone, I'm just one
Oh, God, help me
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh, please God, help me
Darkness imprisoning me
All that I see, absolute horror
I cannot live, I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body, my holding cell
Landmine has taken my sight
Taken my speech, taken my hearing
Taken my arms, taken my legs, taken my soul
Left me with life in hell
Will remain a guitar legend now and forever, from Kenya
Greatest cover ever👍
