[@adamk5462]

[@LeBurunCeyms]

Rip :(

[@Aethyrs]

Rip, and stay strong for what else the world give us...

[@Bambino_3]

That’s heavy…

[@user-dz9yx3et9y]

My wife passed away when she heard LuLu as well, my condolences...

[@ali965]

“i was me but now he’s gone”. i think about that line a lot. so powerful.

[@danielhensley2597]

I was an addict who was depressed and lost my wife and kid’s but I made it! And this song reminds me that I never want to be in that place again! Because it’s a horrible lonely place.

[@jimmymac4559]

“Emptiness is filling me” “Growing darkness taking dawn” Those phrases are so powerful

[@vovindequasahi]

I was me but now he is gone

[@UngoogleableMan]

"Yesterday seems as though it never existed". Never heard a sentence describe my depression better.

[@katthill7506]

Your expressions completely show your understanding of the song, even when there are no lyrics. Thank you for being true.

[@Chester0855]

This song makes my eyes watering every time because I lost close friends in the Canadian armed forces due to suicide while I still serve. I wish I could heard this from their mouths and helped them the best as I could. Their musics always express the emotions felt by the character into the song while the vocal express like you are the main character into his songs

[@hideoyamazaki5203]

言葉だけで伝えるのではなく、顔の表情でも伝えるところがいいですね。

[@chrisp2235]

I've been listening to this song since the 80s. I still love it just as much as I did then. It's my favorite song. It's got me through many very depressing times!

[@asrulsani1908]

Most of the 1st listeners for ♩Fade To Black will never hold on their true feelings.... they will talk about it while it still "live on" ... thats really indeed to relief / release their "overheated" soul during the powerful united between those deeply dark sentimental lyrics and ultimatum music.... ☺

[@johndingess2238]

This song got me through the darkest part of my life

[@chaerudinstatham4879]

thank you thank you to you

[@vovindequasahi]

Growing darkness, taking dawn I was me, but now he's gone

[@Uriel77200]

Yes this song is about someone that is done fighting and wants to die. Beautiful intro.....agreed. I appreciate your open mind and acknowledgement of beautiful instrumentals! Thanks!

[@davidhinshaw3236]

Never apologize for the kids! If real life bothers us that much, we ain't worth your time! Keep it up. Metallica is my all time fav. I love watching you enjoy them as well.

[@Александр-к2я5г]

That intro baby uh 👌

[@Crzserbianguy]

Your reaction describes everything I feel when I hear this song.

[@jmc1760]

god bless sister, im 35 an saw them live at 11 yrs old, amazing!

[@TheCylrin]

I think you have stopped making vids however thank you for doing them I enjoy the music again watching you listen for the first time hahaha I listen to this stuff when it first came out

[@arifrahman5841]

Nice metallica

[@pamagnolia]

They are fabulous!!! Loved watching you enjoy it!!

[@robertashworth8672]

She is so great love how she flows with emotion of the music. Music is its own language and she expresses it. This song is reflects pain of this world so clearly and the getting caught within your own hopelessness. Ironically listening to this helps me to cycle out downtime. Clear out the emotion

[@EMPRESSJOYJEAN]

Thank you Robert 😊

[@johnthompson6374]

Thank you for trusting us Empress. Watching you fully understand what the instruments were yelling was awesome. This song acknowledges to any that might hear it, they are not the first to have these thoughts and feelings. Over time many will comment here how this song helped them out of a dark place. Your bloopers at the end also helps show we are all more alike than not. I enjoy you within your world and the sounds associated with it. Peace/JT I previously suggested 'For Whom The Bell Tolls', Also from this album but they did an Album with the San Francisco Symphony in 1999 during a special concert and then again in 2019. I suggest one of the versions from the S&M concerts/albums edit: 1999 S&M version is the better version. This one, 'Metallica For Whom The Bell Tolls Live S&M 1999 1080p HD'

[@edwardkodai1319]

Awesome reaction. Yup. Those are powerful lyrics. They express what so many feel which leads down a dark road. Unfortunately many don't get the help they need. Here in the small wisconsin town I live in we lost one just a couple months ago. She was dealing with drug addiction. She went for help and the professionals sent her away. So she took her life with a shotgun. She had a little boy too. Now he's lost his mother.

[@ChrisMaresh]

This song saved my life

[@EMPRESSJOYJEAN]

Wow! Good to know 😊

[@ChrisMaresh]

@@EMPRESSJOYJEAN thx for the exposure to a great song. I personally know it has helped many people. ✌️🙏🫶

[@ChrisMaresh]

I can see you are genuinely moved. Much respect to show it

[@jamesgroves1960]

Beautiful reaction

[@glenmills8663]

Heavy metal girl at ❤️!

[@TheJohmac]

I dealt with depression as a young person. I related to the feelings expressed in this song. Some have suggested that the lyric "Death greets me warm, now I will just say, goodbye," refers to completing suicide, but for me, I always looked at it as saying goodbye to death, like "not today". But this song helped me to understand that I was not alone in how I was feeling.

[@clfoster3310]

Awesome reaction. This song is one od the greatest song ever.

[@juggis]

Your interpretion of lyrics is correct.

[@vengefulones6435]

How many people are alive today because of this song? ....many.

[@masonspears8379]

Entire album front to back is phenomenal

[@shawnbond6676]

We love you empress

[@pamcone9304]

Just awesome dear

[@ericortega9972]

if you ever get to check out songs from S&M2 AND THEIR 40TH please do. all great

[@kalobt52]

You should react to Memphis May fire - that's just life

[@brunobastos5533]

when James wrote this all there equipment as stolen , but in an interview Kirk the guitarist stated that James and Lars where always speaking about death

[@HostileHeretic]

Check out "Sepultura - Roots Bloody Roots"

[@chrish5500]

Fantastic review of a great song Really enjoyed it Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺 Got a sub from me

[@dangerousdiscourse]

Background noise makes you REAL, ill watch u more bc of it

[@JoseSantiago-hv3xm]

Metallica simply had a way like no other of taking you on a journey both lyrically and with their emotional instrumentation. This story is a dive through the mind of an individual who is suffering from some form of severe depression that simply has gotten worse as time passed. “Getting lost within myself” says volumes. Through the song you can feel this individual spiraling downward, losing hope, searching but finding no exits. This song is beauty and tragedy all in one. Metallica were sooooo ahead of their time with this song shedding a light on depression and mental illness. Your reaction captures the pain and raw emotion in the song. I HIGHLY recommend the song “ONE” from Metallica and WATCH the official Video. You will see what true pain is. To anyone suffering from depression, god bless you-please talk to someone. You are never alone. 😌🙏🏼

[@ValhallaIAmComing]

"Growing darkness taking dawn. I was me but now he's gone!" 😢

[@anthonyleger68]

It IS about suicide. Really glad you're beginning to appreciate Metallica. There are lots of songs too look at. If you're up for a song with no lyrics, Orion is a masterpiece.

[@zaldum386]

Real music, you don´t get this anymore today.

[@coreywickramasekera9968]

Great song, in my teens, in the 80's, I attempted to commit suicide, and I left the lyrics to this song as my goodbye note. But THIS SONG, OR IT'S LYRICS HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH MY HOPELESSNESS

[@johnrudy9404]

Joy, Why I'm Here by Oleander

[@salvatorediangelo453]

These guys were in their early 20s when they wrote this….think about that

[@fitzeefreshvids1888]

Yes your correct depression suicide it’s probably the one song millions can relate with this song here 30 plus years old and continuing to be a go to song

[@jaskau2462]

Indeed mi lovely lady! This classic track of their repertoire literally reminds 'speeded - up" Pink Floyd. With all the tempo changes, build ups, guitar solos by Mr. Kirk Hammet. Not to mention the lyricism, even though the 'topic' is a bit darker. Thinking the guys were just over their 20's at the time when "Ride the Lightning" album was made. The creativity bursts out all of them. Especially from the bass player, the late Cliff Burton, may his soul rest in piece in the Rock 'n' Roll - Heaven... 🤘😇 Neat reaction mi lady. 😉 When you're about to react to Nightwish again????!!!!! Warm greetings from Finland 🇫🇮 🥶 💯 💙 CLIFF THEM ALL*

[@tilemonkee5510]

Amazing that someone like yourself can enjoy a song like this! You are Soooo much more than a beautiful face!! 😍😍😍

[@pipebomboranthrax2327]

It's starts off being sad to mad to sad to mad to all of a being's emotions

[@igorciric4971]

O yes, Metallica have a great songs, you should react to the another instrumental, To live is to die, and Call of Ktulu

[@arnolesi907]

Don't forget about "Seize the day" Live perfomance Lbc

[@johnrudy9404]

Fade to Black by Dire Straits.

[@konradz6836]

Please react to Metallica To live is to die and Dyers eve!! :D

[@FinnProp]

Emptiness filling me Missing the one inside of me That is depression.

[@sinfulcryodevilxbox9094]

Hetfield and Ulrich wrote this after their equipment was stolen. It's about wondering if your life is worth living and just wanting to die. They felt like they lost everything.

[@bakercarl8518]

Iam not a metal listener , but this song gives me, iam very angry vibe.

[@MrJohnnysaintjohn]

Yes I believe it is definitely about suicide. Many years ago, I learned the intro acoustic and lead guitar parts to this.

[@TheErikBallew]

This song is the completion of suicide.

[@eddystaples]

Need a reaction video to Changes by Black Sabbath

[@justinatest9456]

Another great Metallica song is Disposable Heroes. I would recommend it with lyrics as they are very poignant, especially today.

[@mauriciocejas1041]

Reacciona a una banda argentina 🙏. Indio Solari ( JIJIJI ).saludos desde 🇦🇷ARGENTINA 🇦🇷

[@davidmalone3317]

Its a suicide note set to music

[@VapourNZ]

Hi Empress JJ. Just have to say, you are beautiful in every way - your mind, the way you look, your personality, your empathy - and I really enjoy watching your reaction videos. Can you please please please check out my favourite female vocalist and song-writer, BETH HART and do a reaction video to her. I highly recommend I'D RATHER GO BLIND (Live in Amsterdam with Joe Bonamassa) as the song you should see her sing.

[@christopherglock7239]

Sad song of teen age suicide in America. There always is hope. Hope in God not Men.

[@sillygoose4472]

[@arpeggio1231]

you gotta act for the content

[@EMPRESSJOYJEAN]

Seriously? You think this is about acting? It’s okay. Thank you

[@madsolsen9184]

Great Metallica song. But their Masterpiece is Master Of Puppets.
