[@seanjames5799]

As a recovering addict and alcoholic I can definitely relate to this song. I just celebrated 26 months clean and sober. James Hetfield has had issues with alcohol.

[@darraha]

Hell yeah! Keep that streak going!

[@mrspgp]

good for you man, keep it up! ✌🏻

[@grantmourning189]

I'm drunk. Congrats bro

[@wankaru]

congratulations, just fell back into it :/

[@fabioperbellini3470]

doesn‘t matter, don‘t focus on the negative, I know you can do it man 💪

[@Grumpy_Rabbit]

Wow: You picked up on the correct interpretation of the lyrics far more quickly than most do!

[@twanderson71]

the lyrics are obvious

[@Grumpy_Rabbit]

@@twanderson71 This song is one I to which I always watch reactions when I notice them. And most reactors don't grok the lyrics until much later in the song, if even then.

[@satanlaffing]

@@twanderson71 especially "chop your breakfast on a mirror". & people still can't figure it out. Same Thing With The "ONE" Video.

[@StevenFox80]

@@twanderson71 really depends. I have friends who grew up very protected and didn't get it at all. I even had to explain the mirror. Another friend's parents were addicts. He saw the title and immediately asked "Is this about drugs?" - It's all comes down to your experiences in life.

[@ricmeyers1340]

And he picked up quickly on the meaning of the tempo changes. ❤ This song was written in response to a friend OD'ing

[@stephanieclark9849]

*The switch up of the guitar represent the phases of the drug. The beginning is the euphoria of the drug kicking in. Then it's the drug starting to wear off. Then it's the chaotic frenzy of withdrawals and needing it again. So you got that right with the symbolism. Metallica speaks through their instruments just as much as their lyrics. Great reaction and more Metallica please! For those who insist this song endorses drug use.. Uhm no! They're saying the opppsite.. that it will ruin your life.* 🤘🤘🤘

[@politicalscientist8880]

Ya... but then again it fits a structure they use often

[@Acoustic_strings]

I had never really thought about this song that way. Very insightful. I suppose that the ending with the laughing and fading out could be dying from am OD and drug finally winning

[@darkreptiledarkdragongod8278]

You got it

[@traviscrockett3640]

Hell yea bro. Only a moron would think this endorses drug use

[@WillCashem]

@stephanieclark9849 I can't believe anyone reading the lyrics could be stupid enough to think this song endorses drug use, they must be high or something.

[@arnoldcox9128]

Is anybody ever ready when they hear this song for the first time?

[@mztweety1374]

No, not at all.😂 To be frank, I wish I’d heard it in the 80s I might have better understood what a lot of family members were going through.

[@robbob5302]

No. First time it just sounded like a bunch of random noise to me. Same on the second. And on the third. But half way through the fourth time……

[@robberrie677]

In a word... nope...

[@Bri_g3]

Nope 😂

[@GrimrDirge]

Not exactly, would've been around 1995.

[@davidsan9654]

I struggled with cocaine for a while and let me tell you, that "fix me" scream is exactly what it's like. This song took on a whole new meaning after I lived the experience. Every bit of it is true.

[@edwardraczkowski6080]

Yea, the high is incredible, but luckily, I never got hooked. I would get an 8ball and 😂😂go crazy one night ,but I would give away what I didn't do that night the next day because I felt so guilty. The high is very high, but the low is so low it's not worth it.

[@andrewwoodard8340]

Very few reactors catch that there’s meaning in the music too. Nicely done!

[@LordAlisdare]

Disposable Heroes runs deep as well. This whole album is a masterpiece.

[@Mikyll1969]

YES... Do Disposable Heroes!!!!

[@1brokemofo2023]

disposable heroes is on a whole natha level! love this entire album!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@suzmac1526]

I love your interpretation, right on the money. “One” is a really thought provoking song, please give it a listen. Greetings from Australia 🇦🇺.

[@parkertoolman9759]

One of the greatest songs ever made, a true life story. Good job bro 🤘

[@jennifergarrison4995]

One of the best written and executed songs of our time 🎸🎸🎸🎸

[@ps5392]

Seattle 89 is an AMAZING live performance of this song. Probably my favorite live rendition.

[@timmartinez149]

Yeah, the full 10 minutes is worth every second.

[@satanlaffing]

That whole damn show.

[@hmvenom]

I was 14 when a friend of mine stopped me one day and had this playing in his Walkman. He said Shawn you got to hear this, it was over I was a metal head. Had been listening to rap and my old man listened to Savoy Brown and bands like that so this blew me away!!🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@johnnesbitt2515]

I was 14 in 1986.this chic was blasting this in the school hallway and it changed me from that day on

[@RiffMajestic]

It's fun to read these stories and remember the 80's. The first time I heard Metallica, 1986, I was 15...I went to see Ozzy 'The Ultimate Sin' in concert and Metallica was the opening act. The first song they played 'Battery' absolutely blew my mind, then they did Master of Puppets and I was just completely blown away. Went and bought the cassette a few days later and it changed my life as well, this was not the poser glam hair metal I had previously liked, this was fire, complex, real metal!

[@Suprachiasmatic]

People really underestimate the lyrics of Metallica but whoever writes them is definitely a reader and very well spoken.

[@1971tallica]

Awesome reaction as always , I think you'll like Metallica - Leper Messiah ( from the same album as Master ) both the music and lyrics are straight fire !! Also one piece of advice NEVER EVER pause during a solo , it's metal sacrilege .

[@nobloons5145]

Hahaha

[@ToddPro]

You nailed the symbolism of this tune, great reaction, love seeing others find Metallica!!

[@imrtlsin]

Creeping death live from Moscow is a must see live performance!!!!!!!!

[@DrFitz95]

YASSS

[@liquidpatriot4480]

1000% Yeeeeeessssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Mtzrlein]

I don’t have a live version of this song, but… Metallica-Enter Sandman live in Moscow. You hit the nail on the head on this one! That part where you were at peace was being high, then immediately after, the craving hits you, then you get back onto the hunt for the high again. Beautifully illustrated

[@kenrichards4838]

This whole album is exactly like this. Bangers after bangers. But disposable heroes is a must hear.

[@Godric_71]

Shon: A whole bunch of lines. Me: Exactly what he's talking about.

[@pontusk7219]

To me, this is their best song. A masterpiece!

[@tightknotsfishing9334]

In my very humble opinion, this is one of the absolutely greatest heavy metal songs ever performed.

[@TheEnnisfan]

This entire album is a masterpiece. Not a bad track in it. Metallica are the KINGS. Great reaction, Shon.

[@empyrealone]

This is why you're a good reactor. You appreciate the music and you're pretty good at hearing and interpretating lyrics.

[@zzmorgan4304]

Dude it’s great to see your enjoying some legendary Metallica! I love watching reactions to music by someone who don’t normally listen to certain genres! 😅 the joy on your face listening 🤘

[@zzmorgan4304]

Every time I watch you react to Metallica it makes me want to turn on some and just jam out

[@alexcue6509]

I heard this for the first time over 30 years ago. I’m so happy to see that it’s being brought to the younger generations. Good, meaningful, powerful music should cross all societal lines. It can touch anyone that allows it to touch them. This is beautiful.

[@lmad9153]

Great reaction! Your enthusiasm in contagious.

[@justawhisperintheuniverse8257]

Metallica will never disappoint in their live performances of this, or any other, song.

[@tassiegamer4516]

except for lars lol he always dissapoints

[@sauletto1]

Just so you know.... I click the "Like" button before your videos start. I've heard the songs I watch hundreds , if not thousands of times ... but you make me remember how it was when i first heard them. Thanks for the positive energy in all of your videos, brother!

[@christikirk7265]

Remember my first time hearing...way back in high school! One of my all time favorites. Metallica tells great stories...they f ING rock! Then and Now! This song goes down in history for me and friends!

[@user-mm1nw4ym6q]

I was listening to this on cassette tape the year it came out in 1986 and I was only 8 years old. Loved Metallica from the first time I heard them. Some of my favorite bands as an adolescent growing up in the 80’s were Metallica, Iron Maiden, The Cars, Dire Straits, Billy Idol, Def Leppard, Scorpions, White Snake, Aerosmith, Guns n Roses, Great White, Led Zeppelin, etc. I also loved folk rock like Jim Croce, John Denver, Paul Simon, etc.

[@GrumpyGenXGramps]

I have seen EVERY Metallic concert for EVERY tour that came through Florida since Ride the Lightning tour… to include Monsters of Rock! I have gotten my nose, fingers and leg broken at their concerts and it was worth it EVERY TIME!

[@jackmcculler658]

Part of me misses the 90's.. dangerous fun.

[@satanlaffing]

METALLICA-"Master Of Puppets" Live in Seattle '89

[@jordan4748]

Live version: Seattle 1989. A MUST SEE! Even better and faster than in the studio version. Youre welcome

[@scottmcqueen2531]

Live performance in Seattle. Do it

[@reneeheknowsmyname6771]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@mattfulgurite4746]

I concur with this fellow doctor here

[@scottbuono2507]

Great reaction brother🔥👏🏼there’s ALOT going on in that track almost impossible to pick up everything on a first listen but you nailed it..one of the best tracks by the best hard rock/heavy metal band of all time in my opinion keep up the good work my friend channel sounds great👍🏼

[@seanfennessey7763]

Great rundown. You twigged quickly to the song, I'm impressed. "Blackened" still brings a tear to my eye (lyrics)..Thx man!

[@tjmasson1013]

The lyrics are a must “ chop ya breakfast on a mirrror”. Line goes hard

[@AysKuz]

I love the S&M live performance with the San Francisco Synmphony Orchestra. The combination of metal and classical music is epic.

[@knockoutking3764]

I'm impressed that you got the meaning to lyrics so fast. Some people don't get it. It's pretty obvious, I think.

[@travis8981]

I love the fact you listened to the words and understood it all, awesome

[@andy60234]

You nailed it and yes they all had issues. Back when they were supporting acts the bands use to dub them Alcohollica. Btw premium has no ads. You need to see them live. I’m old so I’ve seen them many times even back before they were mainstream.

[@VerchielxKanda]

You definitely should see their performance of this song in 2019. They were in the pouring rain.

[@Innerexpansion]

Subscribed. Your commentary and enthusiasm on this is one of the best I have seen. Most reactors don't know. Keep doing what you do boss.

[@Wahots79]

Unforgiven. Another of their top tier songs. Worth a listen.

[@StevieDrawStuff]

Master of Puppets, For Whom the Bell Tolls, Fade to Black, Blackened, and Harvester of Sorrow are my all time favorite Metallica songs.

[@cherylphillips1361]

Wow! You grasped that way quicker than most... I was waiting for the lightbulb "chop your breakfast on a mirror" moment lol the slowdown is the "come down' from how I understand it, then builds again to where he yells "Fix me!" Fun fact: this was the first metal album entered into the national archives..

[@kaneikaika]

I love your energy, your commentary, and raw reactions. 👍👍👍

[@azelltanner1624]

Best reaction channel hands down!! Keep with it you got something special!

[@clydefrog7920]

The music represent the need for a substance; the high on the substance; the comedown; and back to the need...Prob the greatest song ever written in every aspect.

[@kathyohlson188]

Excellent catch on the meaning behind the words!!! Your reactions are awesome!! Keep going!!!

[@bill9605]

And these guys are still killing it after forty years together

[@TheChad594]

Metallica, transition are so smooth you don’t see it coming

[@Joegoog2321]

Another great reaction, definitely following you my friend!!!!!!

[@andy60234]

Moscow 1991 concert , 1.6 millions people showed up. AC/DC, Pantera and Black Crowes also were there.

[@bayou077]

I stared listening to this song in 1992. Still hits the same all these years.

[@tbbradley5122]

I love how you young smart cats are grooving on the material that we old stoners did 40 years ago. It is like we relive our discovery of this music all over again because of you! Great channel, my brother.

[@taryn-leacarvalho3444]

I sometimes wish it was me hearing some of these classics for the first time xx wow ,but I am loving reliving them through the reactions. Thank you

[@MnemonicHack]

That's why I love reactions. I can relive the feeling a little bit.

[@tedkelly2080]

One of the best songs ever. Great music and incredible lyrics

[@zogames8659]

You're actually a good reactor, many people just react and don't say much but you are taking the time to analyze the lyrics so I appreciate that

[@SniperHK01]

I always like to see first time listeners to MOP. I went to their MOP tour back in the 80s. Wild ass concert and crowd!! 🤘😎

[@melanieheathbeasley133]

Great reaction! So I remember leaning my speakers against each other playin this saint, at first just to piss my mom off, but I loved all of it and because a life long fan.

[@seanhogue1860]

The switch up of the song is the person getting high an feeling everything’s gonna be ok, and then when it gets harder again its them coming down off the high

[@rile_up]

Listen to any kind of metal song and realize why we like it... its fun as hell... just like pure hip hop...fun as hell.

[@drcruelty]

For this song live, I'd say Seattle 1989. Good quality and a young a very aggressive Metallica.

[@timmypyron2830]

Now it's time for Megadeth- "Holy Wars" (The Punishment Due) video version. Most people have master of puppets and holy wars as the best two thrash metal songs of all time. Can't wait to see it 😉

[@416TreasureHunters]

Their concert in Seattle 1989 is legendary among fans. Check out Battery live in Seattle '89

[@mattblatchley2061]

you figured out in one minute what took me years...well done sir.

[@traviscrockett3640]

Dang shon. You got the lyrics right off the bat dude!

[@keithbrooks3695]

This song changed the entire projectory of my life

[@Angi-no-e]

You nailed it in the first verse! Well done!

[@leetoler9289]

Seattle 1989 is their best performance with a nice instrumental tribute to their late bassist Cliff Burton at the beginning

[@stevencaldwell838]

Made my day bro!

[@mztweety1374]

12:25 that, young man, is our riff lord and shredding savior, Kirk Von Hammett😂😂 Lars the drummer, is my favorite, tiny cheesy, brooding danish. He has drive, vision ,tenacity and he once threw up on Lemmy…and survived 😂😂😂 James hetfield on rhythm guitar and vocals is just brilliant…and a true survivor. Honestly, I wanna go back in time and hug him and feed him soul food. And the late, Great Cliff Burton. bless his heart hes been gone almost 40 years and People are still calling him the best bassist Metallica ever had😂

[@BryanTheCEO]

Fade to Black is another deep track you will enjoy with kick a$$ guitar

[@victorramsey5575]

Im an old man who grew up on Metallica. Its always fun to see the younger generation get into how music used to be. You know.. when bands actually had talented musicians. There are so many great bands from the 70s and 80s, I feel lucky to have been a teenager in the 80s. Life was awesome. And now we get to live vicariously through the next gen to be introduced to this badass thing we call Heavy Metal! Rock On Dude \m/

[@Nichejackers]

Metallica live Seattle 1989. Sanitarium, Battery, MOP really anything from that concert. Metallica in their prime

[@shirleydibenga.2531]

I saw them in the 80'ish now in my 60's+ still listen and love as I did. One that I suggested is the video I've ONE and listen 👂 to it 2 or more because its deep. The francophone

[@brandonsandberg3500]

You killed it on this reaction bro

[@jamiepuente481]

That slow part in the middle I’ve always interpreted as the come down off the drugs. Then the next build up is the next fix.

[@s.f.morris7331]

you a def. a detail oriented guy. you seem like a cool guy to hang out with . your energy is pretty fukin cool man. enjoyed this

[@aldizzleful]

Probably best 1st time reaction and breakdown of the song ive seen. Got everything first round knockout ..

[@reggiebrousseau5283]

Master of Puppets is the best metal song ever. I have been following the four horsemen since Ride The Lightning. It always amazes me when people who hear this song for the first time. The reaction is epic

[@viherkahjo-tj9ji]

LIVE AT SEATTLE 1989 FOR SURE

[@rodb9275]

This is my personal favorite Metallica song. I LOVE watching reactions to it, so I was SO glad to see that you are doing it, since I friggin adore you. I'll have to check and see what other Metasllica you've done. (You mentioned you did something else) And, thank you for doing your reactions shirtless. I appreciate you, man. LOL. I enjoy your content.

[@JCP_956]

The Whole album is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼Great Review 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@leecollison8795]

sand man live in russia is gr8 1.6 million peeps there

[@OneThousandHomoDJs]

If you want to see something special, find a semi-recent clip of them doing this live. This was our absolute monster jam of the year, folks don't even know. This album was like a bomb, because the previous one had been so great, and for them to exceed expectations the way they did was crazy.

[@sketchtherapy1218]

Great for the workout playlist, keeps people motivated and on the right track.

[@thomaseasley6053]

They did perform this live on their m72 tour back in Arlington, TX of this yr

[@TheDivayenta]

Enter Sandman by Metallica in Moscow at the Monsters of Rock show before a million people who’d never seen a rock band before. ‘ 93. Killer!!!!!

[@straightsithmale9872]

You gained a Sub great reaction bro.

[@wessleycoleman3014]

Wherever i may roam Battery Fuel Nothing else matters Unforgiven Master of puppet riff near end is apart of doom franchise music.

[@stephenmichael7576]

Dude, you nailed it. The first part of the song is him addicted and needing and taking the drugs. The slow part symbolizes being high hence the slowness. The last part is him having the cravings again yet also knowing what he’s doing is killing him.

[@hanacreel84]

Love that you're sticking to the storyline of having no shirt on in your vids 😆

[@mikeciboroski3849]

These guys are the kings of song changes

[@spetts75]

Awesome reaction!

[@rgcazo]

Damn. I love watching your reactions.

[@josephsperanza7866]

You need to see the largest concert ever. Mettalica's "Monsters of Rock" concert in Moscow right after the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991. Over 1.6 million people in attendance, the defunct Russian Army was security and yes those are helicopters that security was using. These guys can put on a show.

[@KathleenNunley]

Creeping Death live in Moscow 91. Over a million people were there.

[@vincegedeon6583]

❤ Your Reactions!💯Yes this song is definitely about drugs James Hetfield the lead singer confirmed that in a video I recently saw with him talking about the song 💊 This whole album is amazing one of the greatest metal albums ever from the greatest metal band ever 💯🔥🚒🎸🥁😈⚡

[@bernardsalvatore1929]

Did He mention who or what reason was for the song to begin with?? because I have a feeling that he wrote it for Dave Mustaine perhaps!! Addressing Dave's early struggles with heroin addiction!!!

[@mikegiganti764]

“Creeping Death” live in Moscow 1991 is a pretty bad ass performance
