Metallica - Battery (S&M)

[@heythere135]

Even Michael Kamen couldn’t hold back with the “Fuckin Batt-er-y!” Mad respect for that man.

[@actwonder9637]

Man this intro was something epic... Rest In Peace Michael Kamen, One of the great composers.

[@jimgritty7064]

Whole song should be like that

[@Itsallfun3000]

Too right he did an amazing job here especially

[@vermilion6667]

Shit sounds like it came outta Vivaldi. So beautiful.

[@liontribe__gameing5902]

​@@jimgritty7064that's what I was wishing because I'd listen to the whole thing but now I have to listen to only that part it nearly makes me cry how beautiful it is

[@alexanderringler5747]

4:32 And Kamen was like "fucking BATTERY!" xD

[@mao6415]

Amazing

Jason’s grin and head bobble at 2:30 never fails to delight me.

It’s his favourite song to perform

[@elicarter1356]

@@jackmin6397 yeah cuz this song actually has bass in it

[@johanneskristian]

Epic goddamn intro, man. Kamen was a genius.

[@ethansilvia7553]

Kamen was such an fricken amazing composer! I couldn’t agree more

[@vermilion6667]

Way different than S&M2, Michael Kamen was an absolute intelligent.

[@Sandman-bs3if]

That intro gives me goosebumps every, single, time. 🤘😎🤘

[@rafaelrp07]

This intro and the intro for For Whom the Bell Tools are the best in S&M!

[@thebeautyofmetal]

It’s beautiful and epic

[@MetFanJay21]

I was fortunate enough to have been there both nights. People never believe me when I tell them that to this very day, whenever I hear the intro to this and the violins come in, the hairs on both my arms and my neck stand straight up. RIP Michael. A true legend. We sure miss you.

[@theapachevikingnomadfromhell]

Lucky! Saw them in San Antonio in 2017. I'm from there. There's something special when Metallica comes to town and even more special when it's YOUR town.

[@jakebaker1051]

As a composer for fun I can’t really fathom how Kamen came up with so many countermelodies for pre-existing songs, it’s super impressive

[@MrRabiddogg]

there was an interview a while back where he said it was fairly easy. Something along the lines of coloring in a kids coloring book because the outline of the songs were so brilliantly put together. He said the hardest part was narrowing down the playlist. (it was at least 15 years ago so I don't remember the exact wording)

[@MrMetallidude]

When they revisited this, but with another orchestra in 2019, the feeling was different. It was good, but the conductors (two of them) simply were not as innovative or talented. They were good, but not to the level as Kamen.

[@jericholuke-nostalgicpoet13]

4:43 to 4:55... The outro riff mixed with the violins... Fuckin' Spine-chilling! Metallica ruling the World since 1981!

[@SwissMarksman]

🤟

[@ca9495]

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this song. Sounds so amazing with the orchestra. Very powerful and moving. The first S&M was soooooo much better than the second S&M.

[@cantputmyrealname5195]

HEY THIS IS A SYMPHONY NOT AN ORCHESTRA

[@lancerivera1763]

@@cantputmyrealname5195 they're called the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra so its both. Also symphony isnt a different term for an orchestra its just the music they compose.

for me this is the coolest song of that show, amazing collaboration and great idea to mix 2 genres.

Yes

[@mr.cheezyclown2985]

James: “cannot kill the” Jason: “BATTERY!!!”

[@AstEternal]

Jason's energy on this track was always huge!

[@johnzackarias11]

4:29 That background scream, man. I think Rob is a perfect replacement for Jason, but Jason's backing vocals are sorely missed.

[@valzlatkov1528]

the best intro ever.

[@yetigonecrazy]

This is the single most amazing way to end this concert. Battery, huge climax, cut it, "THANK YOU FANSSSS, YEAH!!" and then just roars. Chills. The love the SFSO gets is incredible. Well done all around.

[@deltarestherogue5123]

He says "thank you friends, yeah".

the last era of Lars' live drumming. @ 4:21 Jason's back vocals got James' respect that night. When James comes back up to the mic he's looking over at Jason like fuck yeah

Jason’s vocal contributions to the live Metallica sound will always be underappreciated.

As someone that bought S&M as a kid as a bit of a Greatest Hits collection: this was my gateway into their thrash era

[@sergiocortez7600]

Two things. 1. What the fuck, James. Imagine being able to play this fucking song and sing it at the same time. This song is hard to play in the guitar. So yeah. Fucking wow. 2. Lars sounds out of this fucking world. I love the sound of the drums here. Remember, this song is hard to play, fast and easy to loose the beat, and being the last song of this concert. Wow. Say whatever you like about Lars today, but here, HE'S THE FUCKING GOAT.

If S&m3 happened, I would love to hear a version of Metallica’s one, with only James on Vocals! I think it would sound really cool if they did the whole song with just James singing with just the orchestra behind him.
