[@omarelmellouki2999]

this song is more than 30 years old, we've all listened to it hundreds of times, and we pretend we're tired of it, but we just can't help but headbang when that riff starts

[@fernandonunes8569]

Sem dúvida 🤘🍾🥂

[@grRock26]

I really thought that I was going to died from the crowed in the last Metallica concert that I attended to. I was INSANE!

[@estebanyanez8572]

Or when it comes on the crummy local radio station in between all the non sense that gets played you get hyped! 😂

[@bradleytaniguchi1187]

​@@grRock26I was on the floor at a Metallica concert 20 feet from the front. Rather chill with seats now and not feel like I'm about to collapse lol

[@petsematarykeeper]

everything in this comment is TRUE!!

[@TewHongJun]

32 years old song but James still can bring this song with full energy.

[@aborigen7714]

Да все старперы ещё огогоо!! Металлика Ван лав🤘❤🤘

[@user-wt9xn2kf9q]

Бомба !

[@travispertson2325]

OMG!! It is 32 years ago, lol. Still remember getting that CD in my hands and playing it for the first time, moshing around in bedroom with my friends. Good times 🤙🏼😜

[@gouderian1]

Hooooyeah ❤❤❤❤

[@larrydj549]

Don't say that! This is the new metallica song, man I'm old

[@mikesbucketlist8420]

The song that opened up metal to the masses ❤

[@E.C.2]

"Whole lotta love."

[@jc2091]

Yes for sure the beginning of Metallica going "commercial " on all us who were around for their first 4 albums (plus garage revisited, AM I Evil & Blitzkrieg etc). Once the Black album hit sales went astronomical but something was lost (really after Cliff died it started). They went from "thrash metal" to over produced offerings & even rock mixed with watery metal. Then when they cut their hair & came out with Load & Reload ...well, at least we still had Slayer & Anthrax, but everything changed, then grunge pretty much replaced metal at the top of the rock 🪨 🎸. But even still, no one was "bigger" than Metallica, that's for sure. Gotta hand it to them. Greatest metal band of all time, hands down. The "Zeppelin " of thrash. Apex was Master of Puppets & Justice for All Era. 🤘

[@mikeheffner1895]

One did that on Justice for All.

[@E.C.2]

True but "Enter Sandman" was the big daddy mainstream breakthrough.

[@jc2091]

@mikeheffner1895 Yes true, One was their "radio song" from Justice album & was on the MTV rotation/ paved the way for Enter Sandman, but even so One kicked ass like nobody's business. Sandman was "cool" One was 🔥! Memories..

[@kylewilliams1960]

They would be a great Super Bowl halftime performance. So many legendary songs. Plus rock music always fits better with football than hip hop

[@lunamoon7837]

hip hop is more meant for basket ball and rock is for football

[@BeatlesFan1975]

​@@lunamoon7837 hip hop sucks now

[@saraharmstrong1577]

Metallica could never play the Superbowl. It would violate NFL regulations to have a halftime show that is more entertaining than the game.

[@crystalp7242]

Super Bowl LX is going to be taking place at Levi’s Stadium (the San Francisco 49ers home stadium) in February 2026. How cool would it be for them to play the Super Bowl halftime show in the city they’ve called home for so many years?

[@Greenman3066]

Metallica would be so much better than the crap they play each year.

[@darshsharma7611]

Metallica is the best metal band ever! No doubts about it whatsoever, their compositions are just perfect

[@rickl6843]

That pretty much nails it.

[@fretnstring5878]

We can certainly feel the energy that Metallica has gained since rob has joined the chat

[@altaimetin8686]

Completely true comment

[@raissadeoliveiravieira8782]

Metallica e Sabbath

[@Detreaisland]

Metallica is second to Iron Maiden

[@glynanthony3499]

32 years after its release and the goosebumps on my arms say I'm still not tired of this song 🤘🏻🎸🤘🏻

[@chrisknapp6091]

James is really something special to still be able to do this at his age.

[@HVAC_Tips_Tricks_Calcs]

The drumming makes this song…perfect as always!

[@philkakid5617]

My absolute favorite Metallica song.

[@Patzolino]

Damn... these guys are still rockin' And James' voice is so clean, accurate and beautiful. It's a pleasure to listen to them even after so many years!

[@JackMcLeodJr]

Band sounds on point. 🎶 🎸 🥁

[@ironnads7975]

Except for Lars

[@goldenwolf8081]

⁠​⁠@@ironnads7975did you even hear how fast Lars was at 6:16? he’s been killing it!🔥

[@JackMcLeodJr]

@@ironnads7975 This is tight for Lars to be fair. He's doing something right in preparation these days.

[@BBD-AITB]

@@goldenwolf8081being able to play medium-fast single strokes for 10 seconds isn’t crazy. It’s the unevenness in his beats that make us all so disappointed in how he’s devolved as a drummer. Listen to the misplaced off-time kick drum at 3:10 for example. He should be significantly BETTER than he was 30 years ago, not somewhat worse. :(

[@treyb387]

Of all the bands I've seen live, MetallicA has THE BEST sound ever

[@mauritsp4420]

JAMES' VOICE IS SO GOOD! He's able to hit the high note in the pre-chorus! His vocal range has never been better!

[@simplebutnotsolongname6642]

Now that you mentioned it, I don’t think I ever heard him sing the high part of the Pre-Chorus before this video.

[@mauritsp4420]

@@simplebutnotsolongname6642 I know right? He often sings it with distortion to hit the higher notes easier... You can hear it in the chorus of Chasing Light too! Idk how his voice is still improving!

[@dieseldust27]

He's using autotune and there's nothing wrong with that

[@mauritsp4420]

​@@dieseldust27He does use autotune in the studio albums, but he doesn't use it live, because they don't play along to tracks...

[@RandomCarGuy_]

despite the number of times they have played this song for over 30 years, they still make it feel fresh and full of energy.

[@space_kat1]

james is looking so healthy and full of energy!! i hope he manages to keep it up throughout the entire tour

[@alejandroczerwinski9165]

I WITNESSED GREATNESS that Sunday night, just happened to be 3 feet from where KIRK HAMMETT has his guitar dude Justin, Metal up our assesssssssssss attitude greatest heavy metal band in the world

[@El_Bean]

What a performance and what a way to end night 2, glad I was there to experience it live.

[@dvsmike]

Samesies

[@jackwest8662]

Dude lucky! I was at Arlington both nights, and other than sandman I’d say for whom the bell tolls was their best song they played

[@silviasyofyan151]

Black album when I was in Junior High school..today the songs are still amazing. Metallica still play it from their soul 🤘🔥

[@bluesboy25000]

Growing up, my guitar teacher and I loved Metallica. He taught me how to play this song. Never in a million years, did we think we'd get to see them live but we were at this show at SoFi. One of the best nights of our lives.

[@roclyf]

After years of listening to this and rocking out, air guitaring the hell out of it, learning to play on my guitar to finally seeing the masters at work ripping it live better than ever before….. I’m so happy and my life is complete ❤️🔥🤘

[@iHaveNoRagrets]

I was there both nights and the amount of noise and energy from the crowd and band was insane. My ears were ringing after the song finished. It was one of my favorite moment and im so glad i got to share it with my wife. Until next time Metallica 🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@Sixpointtwoliter]

Playing this song so far into their career just reminds me of the video in 94 where Hetfield tells a reporter he's tired of playing Sandman, and they turn to Jason who's about to agree with James and then says "actually I like everything, I'm not tired of it at all"

[@HeathenDance]

do you have the youtube link to that? Would love to see it.

[@orange_turtle3412]

Its amazing how these guys can perform the exact same song hundreds if not thousands of times throughout their career and still have this much energy and enthusiasm every time

[@HelenNetallica]

How many times I’ve heard this and it’s just as good everytime🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@puggo1235]

Went to this concert. This was the last song of the show and it was fucking awesome. Lars did a speech right after the show about how they formed in California and threw his sweat rag into the audience 😂 all of them are pushing 60 and still making their shows amazing. God bless Metallica!

[@botman234langer6]

Ahhh nothing like watching my fav band before I go to sleep I can't help myself that's how good Metallica is

[@aborigen7714]

Есть! Это, самому играть эти незабвенные композиции И кайфовать в двойне! 👉. 😊

[@Yoyyo23]

My little bro and I had the honor of attending this Sunday concert. Great opening bands and Metallica killed it. Such an epic night. METALLICA 72 Tour

[@maquakino8121]

This summer I'm going to go to a concert of theirs with my father, I'm very excited since he's been wanting for it since he was my age (15).

[@johnnabor829]

Metallica is best metal band ever. Best sound, great perform

[@Davidgarcia67777]

Feels like Christmas everytime they drop a new live video. Incredible!!!!

[@Dannamal-hc8pu]

So cool seeing these guys live in LA. Metallica is so legendary.

[@patrikdobradi509]

This was the first Metallica song I ever listened to, loved it on the first listen, it was my fav song from Metallica and all around ever since and I doubt that anything will change my mind

[@Beeegeee2]

The vibes that weekend in LA were unreal!!

[@MichaelMerenda]

One of the best metal songs

[@IX_07]

I'll never get tired of this song 🤘🤘🤘

[@Aenigmakil]

I wish I was the same. I find this song so boring now. Wish they'd get rid of it and play almost anything else.

@@Aenigmakil x2

[@Aenigmakil]

@ Yeah, it's really frustrating now 😂 Literally, the only other Metallica songs I WOULDN'T take over it are Hero of the Day, Now That We're Dead and Murder One. Everything else would be an upgrade.

@@Aenigmakil I love Hero of the Day, have memories with that song. However I can't stand any of Hardwire... Just Spit out the bone.

[@michaelevans9862]

I'm so glad to have been alive during their entire career. At 52, I hope we both have many more years to come.

[@walkinlight3380]

My favorite song you have ever made. Im disabled thanks to a hit and run drunk so I can’t see concerts anymore so I really appreciate this vide! This song is A pure masterpiece. My ears thank you!

[@GibsonFender]

Goodbless man

Awesome stage design who is the one that designed it. The song "Enter Sandman" I first heard it around mid 1990's oh yeah what a memory. My cousin and I were on shrooms in mountains out of Fresno oh my what a trip must have listened to this 30 times that night. Laughing, yawning to no end.
