This song is so good that they named a number after it.
Yeah number one
Underrated comment
😂
Best effin comment ever.
Yes , they named the first number after it 😉
After this album, you may as well back track to Kill Em All and then Ride the Lightning. Leave no Metallica album unheard.
Why. Metallica is a good album. My favourite is justice but come on now. Lulu ive seen is bad yes.
@@dapaintbrush6965 I have no issues with any Metallica album, I like them all. I'm simply suggesting he should start from the beginning and do all of them. That's all.
i would be nice that after this album, he could react to kill em all
That would be cool
But I just want him to get to HTSD, since that was the album that got me into Metallica and metal in general. It’s easily my favorite album and he will be mind blown when he hears Atlas
@@dapaintbrush6965 lulu isn’t Metallica’s album.
“I dont have a bass guitar to play that”
Not me just laughing uncontrollably as I heard him say that
Same 😂😂😂😂
Lmao
give me BASS.
Don't worry Alex, the album didn't have a bass guitar to play it either....
There’s barely any bass on this album unfortunately
I remember exactly where I was, in my car and what stoplight I was at in my hometown the first time I heard the video version (with clips from the movie) of this song. Hearing the haunting voices panning from speaker to speaker in my car. I was in a trance. I just sat there and let my mind be blown.
you know a song is fucking amazing when it stops you in your tracks and covers you in goose bumps
I was on a hay ride in small town Missouri and older high schooler had a jam box and 98.9 the rock was playing it out of Kansas City.. I heard this and thought WTFF is that? I Was hooked..I was in 7th grade..Will never forget it..
First time I ever heard One, I was in high school and was home watching MTV when the video came on. I was completely in awe and I think my jaw was on the floor. Absolute genius - such sophisticated musical artistry with such gorgeous melodies and harmonies against power packed hard driving metal.
I remember seeing the "World Premiere" as MTV billed it then... good days indeed back in those years...
I remember where i was too. Crazy how you can hear a song and it takes you to a different time. I was 10 years old or so and it was the late 80s. I remember my buddy and i were standing in line at a movie theater and he takes this tape out of his pocket, yes cassette tape lol, it was the first time i saw the cover of justice. He played the tape in his moms car when she picked us up after the movie. Blackened came on and i thought it was the greatest thing ever. We got back to his house and eye of the beholder was on. His mom let us stay in the car and finish the tape. Shortly after that, i remember seeing the video to One at my buddies from church house. It was the greatest thing i had ever seen. That was my introduction to metallica. I then found out they had 3 albums before this. Holy shit! In order to buy these other 3 tapes as well as my own copy of And justice for all, i would collect golf balls in the canyon right outside the golf course and then sell them 4 for a dollar to the golfers thru the fence. I just smoked a fat bowl and im writing a book to yall 😅
It's a spiritual experience when they play "One" live. It really is.
Feeling the heat and compression wave from the pyrotechnics is awesome during this song.
Fing right, I saw them in back in the day 94. They finished the set plus the encore, killed the lights then came back and nailed this song.
Would've seen them last year but covid crap canceled the damn show.
Well, it is more like a spiritual experience when Metallica plays period... It doesn't even matter what they play. The whole energy level of the room/arena/concert just changes when Metallica comes on stage. I have seen some crazy good and famous warm up acts for them, but when these dudes come on stage, the whole energy of the arena just goes to the 17th level straight and keeps on ascending... And after the three hour show they put on, where you have just run your body through like 3 times, you aren't even tired... It is a weird thing. I have not experienced anything like this with any other band...
@@timometsanoja9666 100% Fact! I've seen Metallica live over 30 times and the way they can "unite" everyone from every backgroud and profession is unparalleled.
The intro to One never fails to give me chills it's both beautiful and hauntingly tragic
I'm glad you used the word melodic. It's what elevates Metallica. Other heavy bands have a lot going for them in rhythm and intensity, but Metallica wins because their writing at the same time has so much melody in it. Nothing quite compares. Remember folks, melody is King.
Melody and transition
@@retroroy1983 Dynamics above all. Which is why Led Zeppelin paved the way. Metallica have some good dynamics too.
kirk hammett is the bach of metal
@@jensclarberg6419 I love zeppelin but Metallica takes the cake any day in those terms as well melody. No question
System of a Down is also a band that can be very melodic but heavy and fast at the same time
About a year ago, I was picking my son up from work. This song came on the radio, and I cranked it and we just cruised around, both of us screaming the lyrics at the top of our lungs. That was a bonding moment.
That is awesome 👌 👏 thank you for sharing my internet friend♥️👍
@@lynettep9309 Yeah, it's moments like that that I'll treasure.
I need to know what radio station you listen to
@@satan2084 Rock 108, KFMW
Tomorrow "SHORTEST STRAW!!!" has been pulled for YOU!!!.
super excited to see his reaction to Shortest Straw, Harvester of Sorrow, and To Live Is To Die.... for my money, the 3 best tracks on the album.
Pulled for you!!
@@Todrick451 Harvester of Sorrow was always my favorite song live, the album doesn't do it justice but watching them play that live in '89, '92, and '93 oh man! smh! Thing is it's the one song they cannot play right to save their lives and it kills me every time I hear them try it post '93. : (
Yes can't wait!!..by far my favorite song from Justice
Shortest Straw!!!
Should have done the full studio version. No distractions. Anyone else think he should do the last two songs together? Nothing hits like 'Dyers Eve' out of nowhere.
Yeah they are pretty much a 2 for 1 and it quickly transitions.
He should listen to both tracks combined for the epic transition
Personally, I think the video version of the song is superior. The added clips flush it out much more than the studio version.
Yeah Dyers Eve is one of my all time favourites of theirs, and it does smack you in the face after the calm ending to To Live is to Die 🤘
I agree. It was meant to be listened to that way. On vinyl, it's the only way.
ONE of the greatest songs of all time
Props for the Master of Puppets profile picture!
@@MikeW739 thank you!
It's cute how Alex thinks that the machine gun drum part is played with hands.
Well eventually Lars is striking the snare with 16th notes along with the double kick..
I noticed that too but whatever
This is the james hetfield album : he wrote almost all the riffs -> GENIUS
The riff god
The Downpick Wizard
Jason contributed the blackened riff. really wish he had more writing credits,
Lars album too
Nah, it was mostly Mustaine.
Megadeth fanboy somewhere.
I'm so hyped for Dyers Eve🔥
@benedict Friedrichs. He ain't ready lol
My #1 Metallica song. Thrash at its best.
dyers eve lyrics will destroy him XD
He’ll want more after Dyers Eve... 🤘
He will officially have lost his shit and be speechless 😱😶🤔🧐
This song was the bane of many Guitar Hero gamers. One of the most difficult songs to play on Guitar Hero III.
Everything is fine, it's just that damned solo, and yeah I remember because I've killed a guitar from it, and this was back in like 08 for me lol
This is one of the very few songs where I recommend the video along with it. Such a haunting video with the masterpiece of a song. Perfectly directed and produced. Scared the shit out of me as a kid growing up watching MTV but couldn't turn it off either.
I agree I just don’t like how they use so much audio from the movie it covers up the music. Little less is more
Back in the time when MTV was actually about music and played music videos.
Hell ya
Not only that but Metallica didn't even give a f**k to film a music video for their first 3 albums lol. Music videos are missed but to Metallica at the time, they saw it as a corporate rock waste of their time. Interesting that they would go on to be right about internet music streaming as well.
Does anyone know what the M now stands for? Or is that their name because that's what people know and they're too lazy and uncreative enough to come up with something more fitting?
@@mikethemotormouth Money
So true!! However, I think this video takes away from the song.
You really need to watch “Johnny Got His Gun”... it hits, HARD
Lost my legs in Afghan, so I got my username from a quote in it.
Thank you for your service... and sacrifice. There is no way we can ever repay the debt.
Thanks for your service good sir 🤟
Thank you for your service sir.
Thank you ♥️♥️ you are more appreciated than I could ever express!!!!! A million thank yous for everything you have done
Damn, brother. I’m sorry. Thank you for your service. I salute you.
Patiently waiting for Harvester of Sorrow. 44 years old and has been my favorite song since junior high.
Fantastic song. Number 2 overall for me.
im ready for frayed ends of sanity, that song doesnt get nearly the recognition it deserves
Frayed Ends is also superb.
My fav from this album too. Heard it live and it was amazing!
Hell yes...I love shortest straw....Hell every song absolutely is a kickass masterpiece...
I’m freaked out. At 10:38 (or a little after) he said “if you don’t like Metallica, you don’t like waffles with chocolate chips in them”.
He said this as I was taking a bite of my chocolate chip waffle... wtf hahao
To have a metal song topping the charts was such an exciting thing back then...
It still surprises me when I see a metal song in the charts now
Pantera’s album going number 1 was amazing.
@@michaeldukeman3667 Specially being their heaviest album, Far Beyond Driven
Yeah honestly
but it'd be even more exciting for metalheads today if you look at whats in the charts these days
remember when fear innoculum(tool) got into billboard ahead of taylor swift in 2018. that was a big fkn win
Whenever Kirk kicks into the solo...
Alex's face be like - 😲
To Live Is To Die is gonna blow his mind.
Since Metallica has “taken over the goddamn channel” in your words, next we need Lawyer Alex to drive around blasting Metallica asking people what their favorite songs are. I’d click faster than a Kirk Hammett solo. 😉
Ditto
One may not be my favorite Metallica song, but it is about as close to perfect as a metal song can get.
Just wait til To Live is To Die....one of the most amazingly beautiful songs ever recorded
When a man lies, he murders some part of the world....
we need this!
Whole album.... MASTERPIECE. That being said..... you would now be flipping the cassette over to side B if you were me at 14yrs old in 1989. And what I found on side B was multitudes heavier and harder and took me places I'd never been. Side B. Let's goooooo!!!!!!
Harvester!🤘🤘🤘 one of my all time favorites
@@danielleblais3658 Aaaaand there it is. My favorite song on the album. Actually they rotate a lot but harvester is ALWAYS in rotation🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Nailed it!
@@bigemetalmilitia8462 every time I hear people say things like "Sad but True is Metallica's heaviest slow song" I just smile and say "no, that's Harvester of Sorrow" next to this Sad but True looks like the 8y.o. brother that tries to act tough 😂
@@spykp Exactly. Thingy, Sad, both great heavy slow powerful songs. But Harvester is so brutal and actually a better song. Do luv me some sad but true lol but doesn't hold a candle to harvester 🤘🤘🤘🤘
It's crazy how I've been a Metallica fan for more than a decade now and I can't get tired of this song, hits me every single time. God damn what a masterpiece
Don't worry; at 30 years I never get tired of hearing this song, so you've got decades of love left, at a minimum!
He’s gonna have a stroke when he hears “Dyers Eve.”. Such a killer fucking album all around! 🤘🏻
I wanna see him react to the first album: KILL EM ALL, since he has done the best so far
The copy I had back in the day had “am I evil” on it. So he has to react to that song as well
He gotta do Ride The Lightning
@@Syko_Gaming5150 and Blitzkrieg to
@@thomasackerly2410 so right!!!
@@HeavyRaiden he should just make it Metallica may vids lol. So many good songs.... maytallica
The Shortest Straw is up next Metallica fam. Can't wait to see his initial reaction with the first three notes.
My favorite on the album, freaking heavy as hell!
In my opinion, One is the greatest song ever recorded. It will never be surpassed. Thanks for reacting to it again!
Goosebumps every time! Seen them live 7 times and this song never gets old. Love your enthusiasm!
I think about Jason Becker. It wasn't a land mine. It was ALS. But he's trapped in his body. He still makes music. Its just remarkable.. His story is inspirational and 😢 at the same time.
Cacophony's Speed metal Symphony is one of my all time favorite records. Just so many leads, and solos. Yes Jason Becker's story is quite wonderous and amazing. His dad was a true hero for everything he did, including inventing devices to help his son.
His 2018 release was pretty good.
Very well put man. Cacophony is a staple for me.
Dude, when I first saw the video for Valley of Fire, I was almost fighting back tears. All the people who helped him make the album was unreal to hear.
@@virus640 yeah man.. All time great song .
Man, I saw the very first showing of this video on MTV during the headbangers Ball. You know, back when MTV played music.
I heard this song in a very specific point in my life, and it will always remind me of those times and all the wonderfull experiences those memories bring.. That's why this song will always hold a special place in my heart, such a beautiful song!!
Absolutely amazing song - after all these years I still get chills hearing it!
This song has a whole different emotion for me. I used to listen to this song as a kid every night while sitting beside my dad who used to do his night reading. 16 years later, living away from home, whenever I listen to this song I am reminded of that happy, innocent time I had as a kid and I start missing my dad living miles away. Thank you Alex for making me relive that time, and reminding me how connected music can make you feel.
Me too....I first heard this song on a hay ride in rural Missouri on jambox..
Shame you didn’t do the studio version as you’ve already reacted to this version. 🥺😭😢
This IS one of their best songs.
If you think that this is impressive, you have not seen the live version. Not on video. LIVE...... At the show....... That is beyond impressive. Fire on your face... Impressive!
live sounds like shit
Johnny's Got a Gun is one of those films that haunt you
The first time i saw them in concert was June 27, 1996 in Kansas City, MO. It was the first time they played songs from Load album live. When it was their time to start, they turned all the lights off so it was pitch black and they played the sounds of war for probably 5 minutes or so before the lights burst on and they started playing ONE. It was amazing.
I was there....KC used to have the most kickass rock concerts back in the 90's....Ohhh the sweet days of rockfest at Liberty Memorial.....Fun fun fun wonderful days..
Great reaction Alex. After AJFA you gotta go back to their roots and start with Kill Em All and Ride the Lightning and continue to appreciate their progression through the years.
Agreed!! I loved their beginning music, (before their haircuts 😅) the very best!!
@@missybekind5022 friends don’t let friends get friends haircuts
When I was a kid and watched this video the part where he says “I’m having a nightmare and I can’t wake up” scared tf out of me for weeks lmao
This is my favorite song of ALL TIME! Back when this came out my family had just got cable TV. I had only heard about Metallica from a kid I went to school with who was from California. Had no idea who they were till I saw this on Mtv. I was blown away and have been a fan of Metallica ever since. Whenever I need to be set free from life, whenever I need to be motivated, whenever I just want to feel alive I crank up Metallica! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
cannot wait for The Frayed Ends of Sanity!!!!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

I kind of wish you just reacted to the song this time because you did the video already but i still enjoyed it. I'll always love this song
Alex: "One of the greatest songs ever written."
Me: GOOD ALEX, GOOD...
I remember when I went to Metallica as my first ever 'proper' concert back in 98. The stage was black and then those first four notes of "One" ring out from Kirk. A green tinted spotlight illuminates Kirk's silhouette surrounded by wisps of smoke. In that moment I knew I'd found my genre. This was what I was going to listen to for the rest of my life. That night, my whole life changed and I've never looked back
This was my favorite Metallica song since I was a child
This is my favorite Metallica song. Really deep lyrics, amazing instrumentals. Its great. Awesome reaction btw!
the only reaction youtuber who doesn't pause the song every 10 fucking seconds and rewind it over and over again.
I love when the priest says, "He's a product of your profession, not mine."
Been waiting for this one. My favorite Metallica song!
One of the greatest war songs ever written. GD wars! Great reaction, brother.
When I heard this live. I bawled like a fucking baby. This song means so much to me on a personal level. I could help it once that beginning video started at the concert.
such a powerful song, Alex I love you man!! always brighten my day or situation
The guitar opening sequence is one of the most easily recognized openings to any song, as well as the melody of the guitar through the song. You do just get lost in the beauty of it completely.
I enjoy re-listening to Metallica’s discography all over again. Especially through someone else’s perspective. I hope you do all of their albums.
Always amazing to see and rediscover such awesome music through eyes from such a different walk of life.
Great reaction, love this channel! I couldn't help but notice you have 666k subscribers at this time. Perfect number to be doing metal reactions! Keep up the good work.
This was tallica first comercial video. As an protest against all the other rockgroups video at that era They made The video in black'n White and in a warehouse.
As many times as I’ve heard One (and it’s a large number) it never fails to thrill and stupefy me with its utter brilliance and sheer emotional energy. As Alex says, one of the best songs ever written.
after the +/- 400th time this song is skipped very often by me in the car.. same for nothing else matters btw. just heard them both too much lol
You’re about to get to the good stuff!! This is my favorite album as well. Love the reactions, dude!! Keep going.
I was waiting for this “one”. Welcome to the Metallica fan family Alex. 🤘🏻
There is also a hidden meaning to the lyrics, Howard stern clicked on to it. It's about James. His father left the family home when he was about 13 and then his mother died when he was about 16. He has said many times that he felt anyone he grew attached to would abandon him. Even Cliff dying in 1986 must have left him with a simular feeling.
Hope for Ride the lightning album next
I love watching Alex react to Metallica. I'm 51yo, in 1983 when I was 13yo I bought Kill Em All.. I had no idea what to expect but it blew me the fuck away! Here I am all these years later still loving Metallica as much as I did in the 80s.. but let's be honest, the stuff they wrote back then is timeless. Enjoy it Alex and believe me when I say the more you hear how cleverly they put put these songs together the more you appreciate them and you'll love them for life. Rock on brother 🤟
The breakdown is so sick. This is also my favorite Metallica song.
"i have the bass guitar to play that" Poor Alex..poor Jason.. poor bass.. 😂
This song and video is when I fell for Metallica !!! How can you not ?😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
so cool to watch your reactions to metallica songs, love it bro!
bought this album the day it came out , it's cool to see folks getting into it all these years later , you're a cool dude!
Fun fact Alex. While touring promoting this album Lars had oxygen by his kit because between "Master of puppets" album and "And Justice for all" he was playing all this shit and he passed out 1 night from lack of oxygen to brain. Next night he played but had portable oxygen for rest of tour. That's also why there aren't many fast songs on drums after this album.
*Ah yes, the one and only One*
I’ve heard One so many times it’s easy to forget just how incredible and important that song is.
The energy that james put in this vocal is really something....
The Kings.
This song makes me violate the OSHA agreement between my brain, ears, and neck.

This was a spiritual experience indeed! Reacting to it again?! Hell yeah to that! I love this song just like you do too! This song is that damn good that I listen to this song all the time! Never seen you react to a song more than once but I don’t care at all in this case! This really is one of the greatest songs ever written! No you are not at all the only one that gets abnormally lost in this song! I was waiting for your reaction to that guitar riff and knew you would react to it like you did before just like that because you had forgotten about it! Looking forward to more Metallica reactions in the future! Keep on rocking, bro!🎸🎸🎸
Alex, as a fan from the UK, I am totally rooting for you doing a video one day revealing you can play some of this song 😂 keep doing what you're doing and making people smile bro the world needs it right now!
"Now I have the bass guitar to play that"
Oh boy...we don't even wanna start that discussion. Again.
But One is actually the only song I still hear the bass in.
There we go. Have Alex react to And Justice for Jason.
I wanna see Alex listen to load all the way through and hear his overall opinion on how they changed there sound.
Yes
I honestly couldn't imagine hearing Metallica for the first time at this age. It must be something truly special. This band changed my life when I was 13
Helll yes....Same here dude..
They all look so YOUNG!
Freakin Awesome!
You Rock! 🤟📈🚀🥩
Korn covered this song. It’s dope!! Don’t forget Kill em All and Ride the Lightning.
Korns version of this is as good or better in my opinion. Not that this version isn't phenomenal because it is, the Korn version just has it's own flair and is extremely good too.
Dude, I forgot about that. Thanks for the reminder! Checking that out now. ua-cam.com/video/-oeVibY-ZeQ/v-deo.html
Korn did a great job with it, but it was too short for me...but I know it had to be to fit in the time alotted.

Great reaction video Alex, just wait until you get to the end of the album!

The live version in the S&M 2 album is more intense in my opinion. But I still love the original
Nothing more intense than that music video bro
@@paulpv7 agree
I rewrote the lyrics back in 1988 and turned it into a breakup song.

Love your channel bro! Metallica is a cerebral experience everyone should experience in their lifetime!
Should've done the live Seattle version
Since you already know the song
It's even better than the album
(As is any song from Seattle show)
Eh, I disagree
@@AssMonkeyGaming Me too.
The whole concert is epic especially the song “ The Thing That Should Not Be”
The previous 3 records laid the foundation for Metallica's friggin launch. This record got mainstream attention because of this video. Setting the stage for the mega-hit, Black Album.
I'd agree with this. I still wonder to this day, if Metallica didn't have The Black Album when they did, and me getting it when I did would I have gotten to Metallica and into Metallica. I went TBA, Load, Re Load, then someone let me borrow MoP... after experiencing that one I got their back catalog up to that point and then continued on. After experiencing those earlier works I get the pre-TBA and post-TBA arguments about them but I like all of their albums and I think the only bad one has been St. Anger. I think my favorites are TBA, Garage Inc, MoP, and AJFA.
@@purplebeard1526
I grew up listening to the Black Album. It came out about 2 months before I was born. I had the same path you did for the most part. The black album first and then listened to their next few records when they came out. After S&M, I went back and listened to their old stuff.
I dont mind St. Anger, at least the first 4 or 5 songs. After that its pretty hard to get through. I respect it though because of what they, mainly James, were going through at that time. Lulu, even though its not a Metallica record is easily the worst thing they ever did.
If we are going studio albums, I'd go MoP, Ride, Justice, Black Album, Hardwired. Kill 'em all is damn good live, but no where near as good on the studio album. If we are including S&M, I'd put S&M under only MoP.
My favorite song EVER! I remember waiting for the video to debut.
This is an epic song from a time that is no more and a band that is mere shell who they used to be. Another kickass review 🤘🤘
