I took this short break from Mercyful Fate playthroughs to bring you a cover of one of my favourite bands - Metallica! Earlier this month I took a trip to Copenhagen, Denmark, to watch their no-repeat weekend (and meet up with some of Mercyful Fate out there). It was only my second time seeing them, the first time being 15 years ago! I filmed this cover just before setting off but didn't have the time to edit it. Now it's finally ready!
This is one of my favourite Metallica songs to play. It's not too flashy, but every riff is as iconic as the last and there's some really fun fills to learn. I remember some of these riffs being in a Metallica bass book I got when I was around 13, and I was so pleased that they actually sounded cool when I played them! Since then I've worked on the more intricate riffs, the details and intensity of the performance. It should have a wah pedal to switch on for parts of the chorus, but I think the chord works nicely if you don't have one. When I dep for the tribute band Metallica Reloaded this is one of my favourites to perform!
I'm not sure why my phone's camera kept losing focus this time - frustrating equipment! Solutions welcome!

Lars would like a word about the bass levels in this mix.
😂😂😂
Lucky for her, it was still Cliff Burton😆
I will never get tired of this comment. 🤣
😂😂😂
Only if you name is Jason or you can perform this strange bass-crab-walk thing rob does
Great as always. Cliff would be proud of you & Rickenbecky!.
If she was in Metallica I would start buying their albums again ... ❤😎
If Lars wasn’t in Metallica, I might start buying their albums again.
100%. She's better than the neanderthal they have on bass right now.
@@SeeJayPlayGames They'll fuck with me subliminally, they'll fuck with me sub-lim-in-ally!
Hey, not bad. I learned to play that back in 1985. It was fun then, and it's just as much fun now. Glad to see you young kids are keeping metal alive.
Cliff would be extremely proud Becky....I caught you with Merciful Fate when you played in Silver Springs MD, awesome show and extremely awesome cover. Fate chose well when they asked you to join the band. Keep it rocking hun, you're killing it🤘
Becky! Every time I see one of these play throughs you post, I worship your style even more. There’s so much feeling in your playing. In my opinion, you’re the best there is out there. Much success to you and when you roll through Chicago I’ll be sure to buy tickets!
Awesome pickguards - I had Alperious make me one a while back, as well. He's a great guy and a pleasure to work with!
Nice performance and Video, also nice Tone 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🇵🇷
Becky!! Sounds awesome!🎸
Awesome job Becky, I’m sure Cliff would be proud
Bass players rock
Awesome tone Becky. Fresh breath of life into a real classic .🤘
This is absolutely phenomenal 😍
Fantastic! Great performance! Now i want to always hear this song with your bass line)
Really cool! More Metallica covers please! 🤘
Great job 👏🏻
Great bass sound
Very dynamic playing 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Kick arse song,
And you kicked playing it.
First time I've seen you play.
I like that you play showing your energy.
Awesome as usual!! This bass sounds like a thunder! 🤘🏻
🤘
This was awesome! Subscribed!👍
Always a pleasure to hear you play, Becky. Even having played, decades ago, sometimes it's hard to pick out the bass part in the finished Metallica track. Your covers bring the bass to the fore so we can really appreciate it. Listening along, getting my Frank Itt bass stank-face on. 😀
❤❤❤
Really great cover!
I think I’m in love!!! 🤘😍
Badass
You absolutely killed this, excellent work!!
Man, I want that Rick. Those fills are dope too.
Christ! Every song you cover sounds better than the original! More please 🙏. Love the makeup and attitude as well
I’m a bass player myself but I’ve never heard it sound like this
cool
Totally smashed that honey . Amazing playing and beautiful… keep rocking girl 🎸🤘🏻😎
Awesome cover Becky! Killer playing and love the tone. Keep rocking hard!! 🤘🤘
I was working on this one last night here you just post and nail it. Another banger from the one and only BB. 😎
I'm not very good in expressing myself after listening to your videos except my red rose with two red hearts. But wow I have to say that you my friend Becky Baldwin there is a Beast inside of you when you grab your bass. I'm speechless.
Awesome! Almost makes me wanna try a Rick 😁🤘
What can I Say???? JUST FANTASTIC... You are great kid...
This is great!! love the big chord in the chorus!
Lord, please yes take me away from the world of incessant UA-cam bass slapping!
Becky was kind enough to send me an autographed pic, on my amp of course.
This bass world is TONE AND STYLE-STAGE PRESENCE!
Excellent as always!
Just love it
You guys must wear headphones!
Love Rics, love my Ric-
Love Becky!
As always, outstanding Becky

Hey hi Becky, you're just great, I love your Rick's tone
❤️🌹❤️

Savage!
Awesome!
This woman kills me with each of her chords, and seeing her play Mercyful Fate songs and now this great Metallica song even more, without a doubt it is a great album where that song belongs, however personally my Metallica life album is Ride The Light....
Becky you are not only the most beautiful, but the best....
I hope Sunflower from the Hawkbirds sees you, that would be insane to be influenced at such a young age by one of, if not the best.
Не,ну круто,молодец🤟
Awesome as always Becky 🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥
Amazing 💖💫🔥
wicked
Love that rickenbacker bass.
Killer tone!

Amazing playing Becky, Said how well you play at the Bruce Dickinson gig in Wolverhampton when I got a quick word with you. An amazing talent on bass!!!
Nice work Becky!! 🤘🤘
Great bass cover🤘☠️🤘
Very nice tone.
😍 ❤
Superb
Wow 😳 that was pretty good my name is Hershel and I'm a huge fan of your videos and I must say that you really nailed it because you stayed with the music and you were on time with every single note 🎶 and I'm a bass guitar player myself and I know that Cliff Burton is smiling 😁 down at the way you play his bass riff keep up the good work and rock on
That was SOLID! Well done Becky. Love to hear Ricky's thundering growl again.
Am I in love,, YES I AM!!!
Fuck yeah !🤘🤖🤘
Listening to you is always a pleasure.
Bravissima e bellissima
Wow! Seek and destroy was the first song I listened to by Metallica, and is one of my favourites to this day. I have to say your tone is awesome and the guitar looks great too, is that scratch guard standard? I've been playing bass myself and my motivation to learn new stuff has just disappeared, until now! Keep rocking! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Great job. I would love to see you make a video about your right hand technique. I sometimes get the impression you are using your ring finger as much as the others but it’s hard to tell because you keep your fingers so close together. Either way, your technique looks very relaxed and I’d love to learn your secrets.
She did. It's in UA-cam in her mix of videos. Don't remember the title, but was labeled as a instructional.
@@RichieLee-dn3fd Thanks! I’ll scope out her channel and look for it.
You're most welcome.
You rock, ma'am 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I enjoy this cover! Like and subscribe!
🤘🤘🔥🔥✨😈✨🔥🔥🤘🤘
Hell yeah! You’re a badass! 🤘🤘🤘
Cliff wäre Stolz!
👍👍👍👍💯💯💯💯🤘🤘🤘🤘✨️✨️✨️✨️
It has already become a beautiful song in homage to Cliff Burton!🎼🎸🎸🎸
U gooooo. Sweetheart 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Becky Burton! 🥰
You are beautiful and talented :).
Oh my God Becky look at her bass,it's so big n boomy alright alright alright alright alright
Becky, я тебя обожаю! ❤🔥
Fucking awesome tone🤘
I would like to see you do Iron Maiden’s aces high
What type of phone have you got? It looks like auto focus mode is kicking in because it’s detecting movement (I had the same problem with my vids) I ended up investing in a Go Pro Hero 9 (mainly because I had to use selfie mode when filming so I could see what I was doing but AF can’t be turned off in selfie mode) but there are really good sophisticated apps for smartphones now such as Filmic Pro and OpenCamera. Cover is killer as always though!!!
Oh yes I think I switched auto focus off for the other videos... I guess I put it back on to film something else and then forgot to switch again. I have the Samsung Galaxy S22... I think. The selfie mode looks absolute bobbins so I use the main camera have an over complicated set-up involving carefully placed mirrors so I can see if I'm still in shot. It's a nightmare and I need to improve and streamline it all!
Becky Burton ❤ best in show
1. Nice playing! 2. I love you! 3. Kinda want to start an old school Metallica tribute band with you. ;D
loud😃👍
