[@notwokevikingrules401]

its an old irish folksong made popular by thin Lizzy in the 70's this is Metallicas cover of the Thin Lizzy version

[@keithboylan2867]

Yep...a cover of a cover 😆

[@RandomManIncorperated]

Lizzy Did It First Then The Irish Rovers

[@nilspittler8202]

But it's great 🤷

[@amymeyers8090]

You guys are rockin hard tonight! You’re bringing back lots of memories tonight!

[@AsiaandBJ]

Rock on!

[@daisytg]

Always loved this song. Great reaction!!

[@raymondreid4987]

Moonshine is corn whiskey made from corn mash.

[@thatsaltylife9855]

It’s esoteric for “lighting in a bottle”. Very occult words in the old metal. Especially Pantera,Metallica and Slayer “seasons of the abyss” 👁

[@Eowyn187]

You guys should hear "Thin Lizzy" do this!! This is good, but theirs is better imo. And the original is a hoot, coz of the strong Irish flavor of it.

[@stephanetrembley6180]

Damn right, Thin Lizzy did it better

[@quintondees4501]

"if that's my house I'm moving out" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 the original version wasn't quite this rowdy🤣🤣🤣

[@jonathanroot5969]

Check out some Thin Lizzy sometime (live is the best). “Jailbreak”, “Emerald”

[@Clever01010]

😏 man! Too many parties like that! Great memories.

[@markb1114]

Didn't listen to much Metallica and don't know this song but it's a good one.

[@briansjohnson17]

y'all got some many songs to react to

[@Jericho363]

So What and Stone Cold Crazy{Queen}cover....will love them.

[@crashy4364]

[@quintondees4501]

BJ you're hilarious 😂

[@williamweiss6128]

Love me some Thin Lizzy..

[@bigbow62]

Not their song it's a cover of Thin Lizzy's hit !

[@BMeet-Creations]

Next Reactions is Turn the page from METALLICA

[@wadstur8429]

Excellent remake. I think Turn the Page is good too. Otherwise they are just not my type of music

[@scottlaughlin9897]

You should check out Nothing else matters by them. A lot tamer than their older stuff. Bet you will like it. If you do?, also check out Hero of the day.

[@ji6m]

Thin Lizzy!!

[@gregory427]

Love this song and your reaction but Y'all sleepin on acal what's up??

[@stevenruvolo499]

thin lizzys version is way better

[@bosshogg8447]

Moral of the story: Don't trust these women lol

[@kyleanspach3457]

The video was far too distracting and had absolutely nothing to do with the lyrics and story☹

[@metalmark1214]

Traditionally an Irish folk song, this was covered by The Dubliners in 1967 before Thin Lizzy rocked it up in 1972 for their breakthrough hit. The song tells the story of a bandit in southwest Ireland who robs an English Army Officer to keep his girlfriend Molly happy after she promises to love him forever. She then betrays him and the young man is taken to jail.

[@Crom64]

love the lore

[@damnreally4157]

Grateful Dead actually recorded the first recording well before Thin Lizzy. It's just not as popular because they actually folk version with a small euk and harp and what you would hear the locals singing in the pubs or social gatherings

[@TheNewRevolution]

This song is actually 100s of years old. No one knows who wrote it. It's a traditional Irish song. The definitive version of the song was done by Thin Lizzy and is a must listen for all classic rock fans.

[@pastorofmuppets13]

Fun fact: Metallica has their own whiskey label called "Blackened American Whiskey" - part of the distilling process involves blasting Metallica music where the aging barrels are stored.

[@stevenlindhorst7579]

That's corny

[@TimedRevolver]

@@stevenlindhorst7579 It fits with James though. Dude's kind of a cornball.

[@rippspeck]

@@stevenlindhorst7579 Zany, almost.

[@chrishoffman2489]

Metallica makes everything sound better. Can't wait for their Christmas album! 🎄🎅

[@npkrn6764]

🤣 James would look great as Santa!!! 🎅

[@mztweety1374]

Dude that would be hilarious

[@JAT009]

I’d buy that album! 😆

[@brianhancock4865]

Love this song - the driving force of the drums and James’s vocals are killer. The lyrics are super cool too - when you really hone in on them and listen to what’s being said. “I choked up my pistols - and shot him with both barrels” - too cool. Love it. One of my favorite all time Metallica songs.

[@I.am.Iain-81]

An amazing song. You can't help but love Thin Lizzy version of this song but Metallicas cover hits harder and more to my taste!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘 I would ask you to react to Metallica cover of 'So What' but I don't think you would be able to get it by the censorship 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@ronstoner1823]

Great song! Recorded by Thin Lizzy and Metallica. Both excellent versions. 👍

[@luciolamonica]

nothing like a good ol' irish folklore song in the version of Metallica with a quarter of Jameson to kicking off my week!

[@suefantastic4584]

fun song.. fun couple.. thank you for your reaction.. its always nice to see you guys.. xo

[@sharonsnail2954]

This works best as a folk song. Asia, BJ: Ignore requests to compare it to Thin Lizzy's version. Cut to the chase and react to "The Rocker" by Thin Lizzy kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6SnaImNj92dmM0 and appreciate Eric Bell's stunning guitar work

[@elizabethdemerie13]

THANK GOD all my whiskey in the jar house party years was during the flip phone years lmao!!!!

[@metalmark1214]

Check out Garage Inc and The $5.98 E.P. - Garage Days Re-Revisited if you want to hear more Metallica covers.

[@ttrob93]

THIN LIZZY is a must. This video has nothing to do with song. The song is about a hghwman robbing a captain Farrell only to be betrayed by his girl, Molly.

[@foghornleghorn8651]

Just saying, Thin Lizzy's version is a lot better, just saying.

[@sumonjamal1653]

Thin Lizzy was the band that took an old Irish drinking song and made 'Whiskey in the jar' a rock song in the 70's... Metallica's late bassist Cliff Burton was a huge Thin Lizzy fan and a fan of bassist/ vocalist Phil Lynott (They both passed away in 1986 😪😪 Lynott from organ failure from heroin abuse... Burton in a tour bus accident). In 1998, Metallica were putting together a collection of cover songs for the 'Garage inc.' double CD... they decided to cover Thin Lizzy to honor Cliff Burton.

[@4md17]

here we go again with cliff... not everything in their career is conected with cliff. all of them wore listening thin lizzy, misfits and so on..

[@sumonjamal1653]

@@4md17 If u got nothing productive to say, shut it! EVERYTHING in Metallica's career IS connected to Cliff Burton and Dave Mustaine... Mustaine was critical in shaping their early sound and aggression as a songwriter... Burton was the one who taught James Hetfield everything about melody, harmonies and progression. Metallica's music became exceptional because of Burton's contributions - that was why they got way bigger than Slayer, Exodus, Anvil, Voivod, Death Angel, etc... So why should we NOT honor Cliff Burton when the average Metallica fan has NO IDEA who he was unless diehards like me tell them that he and Dave Mustaine were early members?

[@blacklabel1180]

No new ACAL?? I'll stick around for a little bit

[@brianmcmaster5112]

This is from their album of 70's covers from the 90's called Garage Inc. Its a cover of an old Irish folksong Thin Lizzy did originally.

[@robertkaplan3324]

What's better than Metallica ? Nothing!!

[@pubuapubua]

This song was been around since 1800. It's been covered repeatedly over the last 200+ yrs.

[@pc574]

There are rumors it was even sang during the revolutionary war

[@joshuavenables7912]

Yes Thank you so much Asia & BJ during the last live stream, which was "favourite songs related to drinking", I requested this classic. This is one of the best covers I've ever heard which is probably better than the original by Thin Lizzy, this is my Step Mum's Favourite Metallica Song

[@AsiaandBJ]

Hope you enjoyed it!

[@joshuavenables7912]

@@AsiaandBJ I sure did

[@brentl8813]

Sorry, this song was made over 100 years before thin lizzy put it out.

[@sarahzentexas]

This always makes me feel extra-Irish 🍀 Whiskey in a jar-o!

[@gipsydanger7]

“Whiskey In The Jar” is a traditional Irish song. Thin Lizzy, an Irish band, made a hit back in 1973. Metallica covered this song, very similarly to Thin Lizzy’s version. Obviously, with a heavier tone.

[@purplebeard1526]

I loved this song off the album Garage Inc, one of my favorites from that double album. If I am not mistaken its a cover of a Thin Lizzy tune. The double album of Garage Inc was Metallica covering songs from artists that inspired them or they liked as bands. It has a very diversified portfolio of artists and songs from Skynyrd to Motorhead.

[@garyarnett1220]

Actually like Thin Lizzy's version better. But good cover.

[@davidhutchinson5233]

This song just makes me think of times past. Those crazy parties....too much fun. Thanks for your reaction you two.

[@satyadasgumbyji8956]

To each their own, but I'm Irish & saw Metallica when still Metallica in '86 & '89, before they sold out last time I saw them in '92. & this, my friends, is an ABOMINATION!!! They should've done what Kiss did in '70's, & Hetfield could've put it on his fukn solo record & kept "Metallica" out of it! God-awful crap!!! SMGDMFH!

[@SRCEB]

The song's exact origins are unknown. A number of its lines and the general plot resemble those of a contemporary broadside ballad "Patrick Fleming" (also called "Patrick Flemmen he was a Valiant Soldier") about Irish highwayman Patrick Fleming, who was executed in 1650.[2

[@stickkitty77]

On a different note. You need to do this song by Henry Rollins "Liar". A brilliant song. kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6i8YoCIobJ-g8U

[@faisaldossa6815]

Great song.. fun video. This is a cover song.. not an original.. but done fantastic. Video was 1999 Songs you should react to that is a cover Turn the page (Bob segar originally) watch the music video. AM I EVIL studio version (no music video) hold on to your seats. Song is background Salem witches when they were punished for witch craft. Great song! Hope you get to both of those songs.. Great reaction.

[@robertbagley9199]

Good, but I personally much prefer Thin Lizzy's version it's got a more authentic feel (helped no doubt by Phil Lynotts voice)

[@markjohnson4936]

BJ! You're the Irishman, tell us what the galic he's saying! Ha Ha , cool song as mentioned Thin Lizzy did version also.

[@thumplife792]

This was a weird time for Metallica. They lost their identity for a hot minute and were trying to find themselves. The video to this song makes no sense. The Dubliners wrote the original song. The Highwaymen recorded it an released it on their album in 1962. Thin Lizzy did a version of it in 1973. Their rendition changed some lyrics and other things. Metallica covered Thin Lizzy's version which was released in 1998.

[@bosuna3663]

God, what a terrible video. The cover song by Metallica is off of Garage, Inc. where they cover some of their favorite songs. If you close your eyes and listen to the song it is great story telling. The riff and the solo is fantastic and Hetfield's singing is passionate. This cheesy video does NOT do this song justice. Side Note: Thin Lizzy and Bryan Adams also do their take on the Irish folk song.

[@SebastianSmith-c5t]

Whiskey is Moonshine, A corn whiskey that hasn't been aged for a period of time in a barrel. That's why it's clear.

[@gsy971]

Worst Metallica song. Didn't know it was an Irish folk song. Possibly why i don't think Metallica's rendition of it sits well with me.

[@leemcclements8889]

This version is my favorite. but, it's not what you are seeing on the video...it a story...Molly, Captain Ferrell...listen to the words, and don't pay to much attention to the girl puking in the toilet....nothing to do with the song in itself.

[@benjaminhaynes4844]

Hey listen yall, I'm from AL, moon shine is most definitely whiskey. ❤

[@christinebakewell3475]

Nice- shame it was the cover and not the original ( 10 x better version ) by thin lizzy .

[@richardwagner5903]

My understanding is the song goes back so far no one knows who wrote it. covered many many times by many different artists. Old Irish folk song.

[@morgantsosie4986]

yall should do Metallica Tuesdays gone version same ablum garage inc

[@jayslack41]

Metallica doesn't have a song called whiskey in the jar... Ireland does

[@LOKISlog7]

Strange video, nothing to do with the lyrics or imagery of the song. Their version is awesome.

[@M63Tod]

The video is interesting but takes away from the song. Thanks for the reaction.

[@lw3918]

This is an old Irish drinking song. Thin Lizzy recorded it but this version is much better.

[@davidfallwell3550]

My favorite version Was from a movie, but I don’t recall the movie title

[@billyboy9034]

This is the actual house Metallica rented as they were coming up. So they payed to make this video there, like 35 years later.

[@PoppaJ938]

Actually whiskey starts out as moonshine. Badass song that still rocks!

[@davidstathers9534]

Hit the like button to be honest like the song but preferred Thin Lizzy 's cover version

[@90hatter90]

I don’t ever get no shoutouts. I’m not enough of a super duper fan of Asia & BJ I suppose. 😢sniff 😂

[@TrianglesAndCircles]

Been there. Even if I wanted to, just can't do it like that anymore.

[@JMitch67]

I can’t even remember how many party’s I’ve been to back in the late 80’s early 90’s where people trashed the place at the end of the party.

[@Leogoth68]

I love this song. I hate this video, it takes away from the story being told.

[@ironmaiden4746]

Asia ur too serious! This is about not giving a fuk thats what metal all about!

[@Roh_Echt]

Well, if we are doing Metallica cover songs....how about Am I Evil (an original Diamond Head song)??? ♥ Don't get me wrong...I love Thin Lizzy. I had some of their albums in the 70s.

[@73mooch]

This is actually a cover

[@johncotter2008]

This reminds me of college parties back in the day. It was a good time. I'm talking about life before internet & smart phones.
