First Time Hearing ‘Metallica - One' | REACTION!

[@DrewFortune97]

I know a lot of you dislike when when I cut the videos so here you go!🔥 unfiltered, un-cut, with minimal pauses genuine first reaction to a highly requested song! Enjoy!🤠🤘🏼

[@zaphyros2518]

It is better to avoid the video music in Metal. You go either with the studio or live version.

[@eldiego68]

ZAPHYROS i second this, specially because metal tends to have longer songs and the official music videos are usually edited and cut short.

[@Boodieman72]

Its based on a movie called Johnny Got His Gun and shows scenes from the movie.

[@jennywong5286]

Hi Drew Fortune Thanks for your reaction. Look forward to hear your comments on Hua Chenyu. Please kindly react to his new composed songs "Bullfighting" & "Jack Daw Boy" in 2018 Beijing Concert. Please check out from the channel of "Hua Chenyu English Subs".

[@huaryoma9242]

Yes! Highly recommend "Bullfighting" and "Jackdaw boy"! it's been a long time since your last reaction video from Hua Chenyu. I 'm really looking forward to your another reaction video! Please check out these two songs!💗💗💗

[@T0m0thy]

I'm genuinely so jealous of anyone who gets to hear this song for the first time. It's a classic!

The beauty of KZbin that you can watch endless first reactions to it!🔥

[@vivaldiadit2949]

first time i was heard this song is with cassette 1990... i'm jealous too

[@Koruuj]

... And Justice For All is one of the best, if not the best metal album there is imo. I don't care what others say. I bought it right when it was released -88 and I still can remember that mind blowing feeling while listening it for a first time.

[@seamusc508]

Wow I was 18 when this came out.. ☠

[@WWIIman1942]

I totally agree with that

[@stephenwolfgangstout]

the radio part gives you chills once you understand what it means, the person in the mask is a soldier who had to leave his family and love to go to war, and he was blown up and lost his arms, legs, he became a vegetable, he couldn't speak, he wanted to die but science kept him alive, living in hell.

[@stuarttownsend1540]

He couldn’t see either by the way

[@billbrasky1288]

You definitely need to develop an ear for metal. It can take a little time for newbies. This is one of my favorite songs ever. Keep it up.

[@DrewFortune97]

Bill Braskey 100%! Thank you man🤘🏼

[@JobForAMaxboy]

[@ZoeyPaigeLunaPhD]

They had no idea. Horrible

[@skellart]

Don’t bother doing a reaction video if you don’t have the time or you are too tired to understand the music, and understand the lyrics. Often in Metal songs the lyrics tell a story. The background of this video directly reflects on the lyrics of the song. To disregard it that simply! Wow! You should probably stick with Justin Bieber. “If I’m just being honest“

[@counterfit5]

Urge to headbang rising

[@herrk.i5090]

Best part

[@richj5953]

If you play the regular song it doesn't have the movie clips. I Know it's hard but the songs words are tell the story... The song and movie clips are from the 1971 movie "Johnny got his gun". All the words are the "soldier in the hospitals thoughts". He was severely injured in the war. He lost his sight, hearing, speech, arms and legs. He has no way to tell the doctors to let him die... He is finally able to communicate with Morris Code..Here is something great to React to. I promise you will like it.. Davina Michelle's cover of the Adele song "Someone like you" or another title you like on her KZbin channel. Best voice that I have ever heard... She posts a cover every week. All her covers are as good or better than the original.. Really incredible...

[@laufenkraufen7509]

If you want to see beauty and angelic voice listen to sershen&zaritskaya any cover from rock to metal. Daria Zaritskaya such an angel.

[@alphazee1563]

that "mumbling" in the background is fairly important. knowing what the song is about is one of the most important things about this song, not just the instruments. try to watch and understand the lyrics (as well as the "voiceover")… but I can see how it would be distracting in some sense

[@connoriquada5429]

From the prospective of a casual music listener that’s not something for the most part that they do

[@isaiahvdz]

the lyrics tell the story of the song, your brain creates the imagery for the song. The music video is mostly distracting.

[@jnixa1010]

The fact that a metal song had melody, storytelling on this level, was pretty groundbreaking

[@piyush8372]

This generation only wants to dance to songs with no meaning whatsoever with a selfie cam in their hands. they seldom gets the melody and meaning of the song...!! they'll never know the rush of head banging and mosh pits...!!!

[@posmanager44]

With metal songs, you guys should do lyric videos to help you understand the songs better. This is a great song about war and a soldier getting his arms, legs, and face blown off by a landmine. Hes in his own hell. He can feel pain but cant communicate what's going on and hes being kept alive by machines. Keep listening to new songs and enjoy your journey into metal.

[@sanketdhembre5525]

You guys completely missed the point of the whole song but your reactions were honest and enjoyable. Keep up the good stuff.

I got this album on vinyl the day it came out. It was on two records. 9 songs over 60 minutes. Metallica has been my favorite band from that day.

[@WWIIman1942]

It's simply a badass album. I feel it sounds better without bass. It gives it a more raw and angrier sound, which was a big part of the album's theme.

[@mrbend]

Mate. I really like the smile creeping onto your face before the "Darkness, imprisoning me..." part. You are hooked. And you know it :D

[@R777-RLM]

There is a version of the video that doesn't have the movie in it, just the band playing. I preferred that version myself. You should react to Megadeth(Holy Wars, Symphony of Destruction), and Pantera( Cemetery Gates, Walk, Cowboy's From Hell). The founder of Megadeth was in the original lineup of Metallica.

[@willismehrer9835]

My first introduction to Metallica was One back in 90 or 91. My older cousin had a stack of CDs and "And Justice for All" was on top and in the stereo on this track. I was instantly hooked, but it took 2 more years to circle back to them. You really should start at the beginning with Kill em All and work your way forward track by track (possibly an album review). That is truly the only way to understand and appreciate their unique and signature sound. Still killing it after 35 years!

[@ericgaudet4497]

Metallica One is one of there best songs and videos . Great reaction to it . the video is from a short War story.

[@ozarkprepper1718]

When I was in high school we all had kill em all,ride the lightning,masterof puppets,+ and justice for all t shirts,scribbled metallica on our notebooks and lockers. Internet and phones ruined life.

[@marksteverman1622]

The genius of the song is the slow burn up to the raw heavy part

[@manny3655]

Yo, a “Yank” from The States over here. Ya have to understand this song is an homage to a book by Dalton Trumbull, enticed “Johnny Got His Gun.” WWI, American gets blown up a land mine. Loses sight, speech, legs... etc. he can hear what everyone’s saying, but can only communicate using Morse Code with his eyes. The over-the-top instrumentals represent the sounds of actual WAR, adrenaline rush to kill or be killed and confusion. It’s also a metaphor of his conscience and indecisive thoughts. To make a bit more sense, the guitar riffs were meant to sound like machine guns. This may account for the overload you didn’t care for. The film clips were taken from a film of the same story. I suggest giving it another listen armed with this information. P.S. I go to Ireland every year and have somewhat of a love affair with it. Speakin’ of love... love me some Magic Mak. We dig that badass ova here...

[@tyler4068]

[@Optinet100]

I'm glad you guys are trying this out. It was a new time for them. This video (if you heard it in correctly balanced audio) is almost hear-breaking. The movie cut-ins were used to graphically illustrate the lyrics. And yes, 16x9 format is newer than the video.

[@MetaliBlack666]

This music video is a masterpiece. The movie and talking makes this video perfect. You can always listen to the song without the speaking in the background. Give the video another listen, it can take a bit to take it all in, but it’s seriously constructed really well.

[@TheHeadown]

I would recommend you to listen to "One" without all the dramatics to fully appreciate the song first, then when you know the lyrics and how the music feels so to speak you can look into what message the song had.

[@-cfh-architector7963]

Greatest Song and Lyrics in the History!

[@riecetruss3408]

Its a genre of metal called Thrash Metal... The big four bands in Thrash metal are Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth and Anthrax. Other bands in the style include Sacred Reich, Exodus, Testament, Overkill, Sepultura etc 😊

Metallica was a well read band. Literature takes a big part of their songs and shows up in tons of their early music. I like the honesty in the reaction, you are right, it’s ok to have different opinion than the masses :) cheers and keep up the good content. This song is referencing a book called Johnny got his gun, and the clips in the video are from the movie.

[@jam1870utube]

This song/album came out at the height of late 1980s MTV music videos, where it was all about the music videos. The videos, videos, videos. It was an amazing video, but you can’t fully appreciate the song itself until you listen to the song/with the lyrics only. This song, next to Wherever I May Roam, is my favorite Metallica song. Don’t Tread On Me, and Of Wolf And Man are favorites of mine as well.

[@benjones8876]

if they hated this, they won't even begin to understand pink floyd "i'm not trying to understand what the point of this song is" smh -.-. Pink floyd is too much for their small brains they won't be able even understand a single layer of the song plus it will have "background noise".

[@tom_4615]

I love the quotes going over the top of the music, I think its better than the studio mix Its probably because Ive heard the studio mix so much and I know exactly what the music sounds like and I know what the meaning of the song is about so I can focus on what the quotes are saying and the message is so powerful its unreal, the song is a masterpiece and I just can't express how much better the quotes make it

[@miksho27]

It's OK if you don't like something and especially being new to Metal music I can see how you may not appreciate or understand some aspects. I'm new to watching you guys but enjoy your metal reactions. It's always interesting to see newbies reaction to a music form they are not used to. I'm going to suggest a few for you and maybe you will end up reacting to one or two: Parkway Drive: Wishing Wells (must watch the video while reviewing) Slipknot: Psychosocial Leo Moracchioli: Hello (Adele Metal Cover) I think you guys will really enjoy this one! Pantera: Cowboys From Hell Please do the Adele Metal Cover it would be great because you already know the original song as we all do and to hear a Metal spin to a song you know would be fun for all of us to see. Good Luck! BTW: Amy reactions are great; especially when she looks at the camera and makes her "metal face" lol, love it.

[@MichalPalcinsky]

Nightwish - Ghost Love Score Live at Wacken and then Poet and the Pendulum live at Wembley and finally The Greatest Show on Earth live at Tempere. This is necessary Nightwish trilogy. It will blow you away.

[@T-rock40]

The song is based on the movie that is playing during the video. The song are the thoughts of the man who was blown up in the movie. He cant speak, hear, see he is ONE... and wants to die. Metallica won a Grammy for this song. It might help to pull up the lyrics on something so you can read them as they go along. If you want to see something amazing watch Metallica perform Creeping Death live in Moscow 1991.

[@rofyle]

The "radio" you are referring are actually scenes taken from the movie Johnny Got His Gun, which is based on the book, "Johnny Got His Gun" by Dalton Trumbo. The song is also based on this book. In the book, Johnny, having learned to communicate with his nurse through a system of Morse code, manages to communicate his desire to be taken to Washington D.C. and there presented to the people in order to show them the true horror of war. But the generals and the politicians refuse Johnny's request, because they want the war to continue. The book ends with the generals leaving Johnny in a dark room alone with his nurse to die, his request forever denied.

[@UntitledSpaghetti2]

The movie scenes are from Johnny Got His Gun. The book was published in 1939. The movie was in 1971.

[@kennyraskind2353]

They are the kings of transitions!

[@sgtraytango]

There's another music video for this song that doesn't have clips from "Johnny Got His Gun" playing in the background. They only used clips from it because the vocalist had an idea about a guy in the army who loses his arms, legs, sight, speech and hearing and is just a shell and someone pointed out that a book with that plot already existed.

[@biorythmicshifter]

This is a perfect illustration how modern music is so dumbed down that the current generations don’t know how to interpret sounds. Let’s face it, current popular music has such minimal mental stimulation that when people listen to something with some substance it’s too much for them to process. Personally I find this song extremely simple to follow along to, it’s almost alien for me to imagine someone being overwhelmed by it...these are pretty simple musical ideas. When I was young and didn’t listen to very complicated music I can relate to some instrumental music being hard to grasp (try listening to Alan Holdsworth if you really want to challenge your mind, to most its random sounds but in reality it’s highly composed) but as time went on and I became more attuned to picking out the different patterns I was hearing anything less seemed boring. Keep listening to music that challenges you...you won’t regret it in the long run.

[@MrTech226]

Hey Drew, those video clips are of 1971's movie named Johnny Got His Gun. It is about young American soldier in WWI badly wounded like he is a quadruple amputee without his eyes, nose & mouth. As he unable to talk to his doctors, soldier is able to talk to doctors tapping Morse Code with his head.

[@jeffanway8496]

The video part is from a movie 'Johnny get your gun' the song is about a man who went to war & was blown up by a land mine..losing his arms legs sight speech

[@harryhurd2474]

It was based off of a true story of a soldier living after a landmine took everything away from him. That story was the basis of the movie Johnny Get Your Gun. Which is what the song is about. Hope that helps

[@moondoggaming1994]

This song is literally an allegory for the movie in which it has clips from (Johnny got his gun) and how the effect of war can take their toll on an individual and leave them as a literal living bag of meat that cant talk, hear, see, and has no limbs. And how the character in the movie is just living inside himself with no external contact whatsoever, and slowly begins to realize what his life is and that if this is all it will be, then it is no better than being dead.

[@TTV_Zigza]

The best way to listen to metal music is with your eyes closed and try to picture it but listen closely to the lyrics as they tell a story

[@pleasehelp2446]

The song and music video bus based on "Johnny got his gun" about a young man who goes to WW1 and in an injury loses his sight, taste, hearing, smell, and both arms and legs. He spends a couple of years learning to communicate via morse code with his neck and head where all he says is "sos help kill me" over and over until a friend of his from the war tells him that the military won't kill him because it's "not the military way" and he resolves himself to live not knowing if he is awake or asleep and dreaming until he dies a natural death

[@bgdadeeJ9]

One Metallica ...And Justice For All, ©1988 Hetfield / Ulrich Metallica’s 1988 song was partially inspired by the movie Johnny Got His Gun, originally a novel written by Dalton Trumbo in 1938. The anti-war novel tells the story of an American soldier in World War I who has been grossly disfigured by a landmine. All his appendages have been removed and his face was blown away leaving him trapped in a lifeless body, unable to communicate with the outside world. The novel was re-released during the Vietnam War and subsequently adapted into a movie which Trumbo directed in 1971. Metallica secured the rights to the movie and incorporated numerous scenes in their music video for the song One. In 1989 Metallica released a video, 2 of One which includes two versions of the music video and an interview with band member Lars Ulrich who states, "We just know we made something that's very, very unique and different." He also explains that the idea for this song actually originated with band member James Hetfield who was thinking about what it would be like to have a healthy mind trapped within a useless body, a "living consciousness" or "basket case", unable to communicate with others.

[@Azereiah]

I definitely agree that this video isn't super great. The overlaying of the movie scenes and dialogue over the song made for a nice effect but it wasn't done well enough for it to not distract from the music itself. The album and live versions of the song don't have the low-fi movie audio in them. I feel almost as if they could have made this version of the song separately from the original, and toned down the intensity of the music itself to bring the focus toward the video scenes, dialogue, and various concepts they seemed to want to highlight. A few other bands don't have a problem with making slight changes to their music based on what they're using it for. But this was also from 1989, when Metallica were in their mid twenties and the modern metal scene was still forming. I can't bring myself to call this video a "masterpiece" like some other commenters. The song itself is definitely a good one in a vacuum, but the video is... well. It's more a music video for Johnny Got His Gun than a standalone thing.

[@supporterofsanity]

I wish I could hear One for the first time again. Masterpiece.

[@garfunkle5447]

This song is really an instrumental with lyrics. Great, great song.

[@Gutslinger]

I can somewhat understand your experience with it.. When I first heard this style of music, it mostly sounded like mashed up sounds. Hard to pick up a feel for it, and hard to distinguish what's going on, musically, throughout the song. Once I started to listen to the same songs, usually from bands like Metallica and GunsNRoses, I started to develop my musical ear and was able to pick up the feel for the rhythm and eventually was able to distinguish the chord changes and which instrument was producing what. Once I picked up the guitar and started learning to play, it made me appreciate and love the instrumentation of these songs even more. Learning the guitar also gave me a better musical ear and a little more insight on how it's actually being played. Unlike the commercialized music that the majority listens to today, these Metal/rock songs are complex and change pace a lot, much like classical music. I'm starting to even like some classical songs now. Lol

[@codeyhorn2406]

Classic Metallica baby ‼️‼️‼️‼️ god that song is such a beautiful song fucking classiccccc🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@patrickbronson437]

The way to fix your concern is to listen to the song without the video, just the song itself in my opinion. It’s super easy to get distracted and miss the amazing music and lyrics. 🙂 The reason for the slow start and then the build up to fast and furious, is because it’s trying to mimic the wounded soldiers feelings. Starts with sadness, confusion, quiet and ultimately turns into furious fucking anger and fear. The very fast drum beats, listening closely, is supposed to mimic machine gun fire. I’m a hard rock/metal fanatic, I hope my comments are not offensive. I can suggest some other Epic Metallica songs with blistering music and intense lyrics. Love your channel. 🤘🏼❤️🇺🇸🥳🍻

Great reaction. Even if you don't appreciate certain parts of the music, most people will recognize your comments are nothing more than initial reaction. So don't feel the need to apologize for anything you say. Say what you feel :) DO NOT WATCH MUSIC VIDEOS. Stick with lyrics videos. You focus on the music, and you get the message. That's all you need. No more music videos. Baroness - Chlorine and Wine (very melodic, build up, climax, emotional)

Hey man thank you! Will look into it!🔥

Your right about the music video, the radio voice was taken from scenes of an old movie, the song on Spotify doesn’t have it. I CBA right now and yeah look up the genius

I think todays young generetion doesn`t even feels this musik in the same way, I felt it in this age. Cause it`s relevant to the times and experience of the lifetime. These are child of PS and XBox. They may listen to this kind of musik but hearing and feeling it, those a difference.

The best song from Metallica in my opinion!!!!!!

[@DigestiveCeremony]

Here's the thing, there are so many great stories being told in metal songs. My recommendation would be to do a little research on the song before you listen to it just so you get the overall concept of what the band is trying to accomplish. For instance, this song was inspired by a book. And in that book, this soldier gets completely destroyed by a landmine. And the whole song is really James speaking for that soldier since he literally can't speak. He lost both of his arms, both of his arms. He lost most of his face. He can't speak. So, the lyrics are written from his perspective. Metal songs often address war or philosophy or relationships or religion, and I just think it helps to have that little nugget of information in your head before you hear the song so that you're not playing a guessing game, and maybe that helps you connect with the song more.

It is alot to take in the first time without the parts added in from the old movie. Need to listen a few times(non video). I've been listening to them for 30+ years, Saw them live a few times. Great to see younger generations hear it for the first time, Thanx youtube :)

[@TheVas76]

Agreed. I completely get why they put the movie clips in the video, but having them play over the music has always been a mistake in my opinion. Give the song a listen, if you haven't already, by itself without all of the movie clips.

This song is so deep, and I wish I appreciated it the first time I heard it

[@MRxMADHATTER]

Metallica's goal is to keep innovating and changing. Leading the way in Metal...which they still do.
