Metallica - Hardwired Live Fail (CRINGE)

[@mrsuperstarxv6006]

i dont think the creator of this video knows what cringe means

[@Nizzon.]

Rob spinning or crab dancing or whatever it is he is doing is the definition of cringe.

[@CHE113A]

😁

[@morturiom9651]

@@Nizzon. or the definition of not taking yourself seriously:)

[@coltallic3114]

Seriously? People are saying they're shit just cause of this. They're just fucking around. I thought it was pretty cool.

[@wahmeister666]

Yeah people must not realize they played this to fuck around. You can even see James trying not to laugh as he starts to sing the first verse.

[@alexg892]

I also don't like how kids use cringe for everything. It doesn't even apply most of the time. Someone fell? CRINGE. Someone made a spelling error? CRINGE. Someone broke a delicate item? CRINGE.

[@PiazzaGurl]

Alex G I agree. I didn't cringe I laughed and clapped. I freaking enjoyed it.

[@michaelreyes2301]

seems like they were just having a good time having fun with the song

[@scottyj871]

michael reyes gotta perfect it somehow lol

[@matrixarsmusicworkshop561]

true

[@dakotaward465]

First, this isn't really a fail, more over just proof that they are human, unlike half of these pop artist who use a back track. Second, I love the fact that people are immediately pointing their fingers at Lars for messing up, when in fact, it was James for coming in too early.

[@omgmaster9985]

Agree, just like at Rock am ring 2014 with and Justice for all

[@dakotaward465]

Shallex As stated above, it only proves that they are human. Nobody is flawless, and everyone screws up sometimes.

[@Milllllhouse]

a butchered metallica song still sounds better than today's pop artists rubbish.

[@ahdbw8494]

Dakota Ward yeah. People hate Lars. I don't. He's still good believe it or not.

[@steakiefrags1866]

it was kirk :D look closely at 0:17, james is touching his nose while kirk is already at the...like...double-slide part-thingy xD

[@DoomShroom2010]

This wasn't a cringy fail. They were just being funny.

[@SergeBlake1973]

That is the bravest thing I ever seen.

[@jcdc6492]

Serge Blake ----tell eeeeem man. Acoustic speed demon. Not easy. Easy to want to quit like Lars does mid intro 2nd take, camera pans to him showing the "cut it off" hand gesture. Het said nope, we are going through with it. Sounded good to me, Kirk sounded great on 2nd part of solo, the recording is from the nose bleeds tho.

[@vishalsheth1888]

Metallica loves to fuck around.

[@ahdbw8494]

Vishal Sheth yep

[@andybenji6651]

Acoustallica

[@LeonWDixon]

Andy Benji Acoustica

[@manuelgasse]

James is the one fucking it up ! Hahaha. He always starts the verse too soon. lol

[@essamkhalid1253]

Manuel Gasse that was when they started over. Kirk fucked up in the beginning.

[@JMNTLRDRX]

James is annoying Lars.

[@TheManwithafan]

Kids in the audience? WE'RE SO FUCKED

[@TheIcanntspel]

don't forget shit outta luck

[@BradyStudios97]

They are self wired to self destruct

[@TheIcanntspel]

+Andrew Brady *Hard wired

[@BradyStudios97]

I tried to but damn computer auto corrected,. wouldn't let me

[@doesthissmelllikechloroform]

Kids should not be sheltered from language. Teach kids that those words are adult words and should not be said by kids. You shouldn't put the responsibility on Metallica to not cuss in their songs just because you don't want your kids to hear the word fuck or shit. it's BS.

[@essamkhalid1253]

Much respect for James. He always keeps the band alive.

[@xXNightedgeXx]

But does he show you?... lol

[@unromanoarecareanaveragero8275]

I think that without Lars, Metallica would’t have existed!

[@JacobB177]

I was there and they did it because it was funny not because it sounded good.

[@laudefrancois6273]

That solo though. Maybe Kirk gets it right with an acoustic hahaha!

[@ajnemesis]

Lol'd he played it perfect on acoustic!

[@doncampbell7521]

yeah I'm happy I can finally dig metallica again, but kirk needs to step it up.

[@egekarpuz]

Metallica Unplugged

[@8OneOfTheNobodies8]

I have nothing but respect for Metallica ! They do what the fuck they want and they dont give a fuck \m/ ... this is both awesome and funny as hell !!

[@TheLudified]

[@mcgaming9199]

its f*cking acoustic, you think its easier to play a song like that acoustic? and they take the mistake with grace, james handles it very well. background fans seem to be enjoying it as well.

[@tristangardarsson4497]

Mick Cote 👏👏👏

[@tristangardarsson4497]

Mick Cote yes

[@mcgaming9199]

that's weird, showing that i left the comment a week ago...definitely been at least a month.

[@calebnoland7831]

his voice is amazing

[@partypie1977]

not the greatest choice of song for acoustic

[@xSMOKExEMxALLx]

Everyone says this is a fail but will be running out to buy the album and playing with their dinkies in Nov

[@rachet284]

Seriously Hammett's solo was great, he shredded an acoustic! Love Robs enthusiasm too!

[@lolwutjoe]

Fail? They did these a lot during normal live performance, go find "metallica making fun of other bands", they just love to fuck around.

[@createrofearth123]

I completely agree with Lars at 1:57 lmao. Good to see them enjoying shows \m/

[@Jayteaseepiirturi]

"We're so fucked. Shit-out of luck." No truer words spoken ever. :D

[@TheAbtrigger]

The guitar solo went suprisingly well

[@blueberrypancake]

This is great to see! James continued on and the band got back together after a few lines and the rest of the song worked out perfectly! Great to see really

[@SuperRockstar901]

They are fucking around bruh. At least there taking the time out of the show like they used to.

[@jedimasterdom]

exactly. this is a charity event as well, dunno why everyone's over reacting

[@AhmadEdinHodzic]

Lars is like no god no and james is like fuck this im joker bejatch

[@czolgistta]

"We're so fucked, sheer out of luck"... that you were James, that you were :D

[@PiazzaGurl]

This wasn't cringe fail this was fun and HILARIOUS!!!!! I enjoyed it. I love when they screw up or around. It's not really a song to play acoustically. I loved it. They have great sense of humor. I wanna see half these so called artists play acoustic that fast and to all these negative fans. smh.

[@jeffreydhill]

lmao. No reason to cringe. Its just funny. Stop taking things so seriously. Even Metallica doesn't. P.S. Damn, James sounds good.

[@metallicrazy8891]

"No, don't clap. Stop. that was terrible...That was bad." ahahahahaha

[@JoseCruz-dk3fi]

this was so awesome! that acoustic solo tho, nailed it

[@ratbourn3319]

That would be funny if they did a version of Hardwired like this for the album

[@OmarAli-ps1jw]

jame look to lars and say we so fucked lol

[@TheCRAZYgamers115]

not really considering this is the first and probably only time they'll do this.

[@mazklassa9338]

who the fuck advises them, that's what I want to know

[@jeffdavid4384]

There were playing with Acoustic's .... go listen to Winger you fair weather fans

[@metallicafan416]

look its nobody in a comment section

[@mattmason7321]

Nobody, they are fuckin' Metallica.

[@TheNewAgeGamer97]

I disliked for the title alone. Using CRINGE as clickbait is stupid. This wasn't cringeworthy. Not only was it a new song, they played on acoustic-electric guitars. They did fine.

[@pugsleytattoos3631]

haha people are sooo serious😂 Metallica has been doing these kind of things for ages!just having fun....go and watch Metallica funny vids. ..where James does his axl rose impressions. .or they do little covers!or even San Diego dvd..where James and Jason take over the drums and lars sings. ... jeez people...count to 10

[@BasileusOmniworks028]

It's always good to see that the pros don't take themselves too seriously all the time.

[@fuzzystrings6222]

Hardwired to FAIL Destruct!

[@bel4vel793]

It actually sounds pretty nice

[@jasv49]

Lars actually adapted pretty nicely to James' trolling @ 2:08 - 2:18.

[@scorpionking4012]

James was not gonna start over again

[@philfmiller]

scorpion king James is definitely the time keeper in the bad. But really, it's like playing guitar hero on easy, but failing hard lol

[@joatagewin]

id rather see a fuck up than failed lip syncing. besides you never know maybe his ear monitor went out

[@coltallic3114]

3:12 that's straight up 80's James for ya

[@KHINKALI-LOVER]

Kirk is like: I have a pedal. I have wah. Uuugh Wah Pedal. How else can I explain he wears a leo shirt?

[@abiseniyya]

They don't mind being silly. They are mature enough to feel secure about themselves.

[@metalhead1105]

How in the hell is this a cringe tbh this is pretty damn good!!

[@mdub2000]

That was pretty cool...that solo on acoustic by kirk was really good ....it was really clean and playing that fast on an acoustic isn't that easy.

[@havenater]

I don't know what your talking about when you say fail and cringe.. they totally pulled it off

[@Voodeville]

are they beating him before shows?

[@agooknight9585]

We are so fucked !!!🤣

[@buriedinblack3424]

Can't bands have fun? Do they need to be perfect even on stage? Cause that would be a bit boring y'know

[@fella-n3767]

I think that the confusion came because of the fact that it is an ACOUSTIC arrangement of a new song. Hell, it's difficult to play acoustic versions of songs that you have played hundreds of times, let alone a song performed live only a few times. Calm down guys, its METALLICA for fuck's sake!!! \m/ \m/

[@prodigalbrock]

Yeah they were having at the bridge school.

[@fabianmoralesgt]

Kirk is already suited for halloween

[@priestfan81]

This took balls the size of grapefruits. This is what HEAVY METAL is all about ImI,

[@luisnunes4632]

They were just having fun. Relax, dudes xD

[@marcelaeugenio5109]

wtf happened to lars

[@Riotss]

This was great

[@evanboone205]

I was at this show. It was so awkward but it’s fucken Metallica so it was badass!

[@jasv49]

at this point I'm pretty sure no one who uses the word "cringe" is older than 12

[@larkels3623]

Kirk can You tell o=its A new song

[@ItsABettyGame]

i wish i was there on Saturday instead on Sunday shit

[@essamkhalid1253]

Kirk started this whole mess 😂

[@therealjosan]

Why does Lars keep stopping? Keep going!

[@multiestonian]

They aren't afraid to try it, that's why i like them. It wasn't their strongers moments :D but i enjoyed it still.

[@samdobson-oneal5113]

These men have right of way in life! They do...and I hope they always do....WHATEVER THE FUCK THEY FEEL!

[@EFRAINVILLALOBOS123]

It wasn't Lars, it was James

[@Tommy712rus]

sound close to their live sound.

[@luissantiago8874]

Como diría mi buen james "flamingouu"

[@KingMetaloy]

they made this song is like a heavy Western cowboy. it's awesome!

[@debonaire_nerd]

Someone should do a shred video where it sounds good.

[@masterofpuppets777]

Kirk played the solo perfectly on an acoustic

[@SweetSweetJustice]

if they're there why record the TV? or.maybe they're not lol

[@SweetSweetJustice]

Attack Helicopter that is very true. lol I was like we are in the future! phones zoom in lmao.

[@bjarnemachiels3897]

Lyndon McArthur Quality gets shit zooming in THAT far...

[@rockAndmetal765789]

james save the band

[@tadgonzalez6194]

That was cool... they are just having fun. Fucking up and all.

[@ibanez2010]

Senses of humor have apparently gone the way of the dodo bird. Massive cringe worthy fails in the comment section, as usual.

[@Orphenia_]

This aint even cringy, they just made a mistake.

[@JoshValdez1996]

Hero of the Day and Bleeding Me both sounded great with acoustics... this, not so much.

[@nabugijin9910]

acoustic is a bitch, tighter cords leave ya hanging, great recovery!

[@VeeeeryyyFaaaastSlooooth]

Real cringe is these emo kiddies like OP who find any good time cringey.

[@dardrockgamer9736]

fail vs fail vs fail

[@dean_koff]

Он так хорошо и ПРАВИЛЬНО спел в живую, идентично студийной записи

[@Jalex_Owns]

And who screws up? Lars. Didn't see that one coming. #Larsruinseverything

[@TheKereberus]

Actually James came in too early with the vocals.

[@RyanLestage]

Lars couldn't keep time if he was a Metronome

[@northwestnw8515]

...or a watch

[@mattdavis9331]

Jeff david what's wrong with winger?

[@AniW2x4]

James is literally trolling here lol. This isn't cringe at all and it's not a fail either.

[@Logophile18]

OP title failure - cringe

[@Jakeman90210]

the biggest problem is the acoustic guitars

[@fredriksvard2603]

Yes, it works if you rearrange for strumming, fingerpicking etc but just playing it like a distorted electric, ugh

[@suspect794]

Lars had to stop because James was keeping tempo too good

[@cristianjironmartinez4906]

lol....so fucking awesome!!! Long Live Fucking Metallica!!!!!! \m/

[@edwardpritchard3132]

Pour James. He was the only one that practiced properly.

[@wortexTM]

Bro James was the one who fucked it up xd

[@edwardpritchard3132]

Oh I see, his timing off. He's half a bar out.

[@wortexTM]

he started the lyrics too early.

[@lucasbonussilva8104]

esse foi o show mais tosco que já vi do Metallica

[@meabobo]

The lyric is jinx

[@Juventinos]

much worse when they started AJFA 4 times in germany

[@ShadowZero1980]

Why worse? (I was there, I think they got it the 3rd time though)

[@Docteur666]

The fucked up twice, not thrice!

[@silverbasscross]

What year was that? Is there a recording?

[@ShadowZero1980]

2014 I think.

[@QuarterForce]

Rock am Ring 2014 on this Request Tour

[@Voodeville]

old man lars refuses to play at all

[@tatengueunion1457]

FUEL para mi espiritu METALLICA REYES DEL METAL

[@auzysav]

Lars is just digging his hole deeper lol rip

[@rbecker2299]

cool ! this is actually awesome ! :D

[@scabo33]

Such a poor set. They have so much that can work acoustic and they just picked the wrong ones i think.

[@TheKartoffel101]

well bleeding me, Hero of the Day and Enter Sandman works really good and of caurse also Whiskey since it is a prety good camping fire song tho^^

[@MrPanda410]

GT8686 I don't understand why they didn't include Fade to Black or Sanitarium or even the first Unforgiven. I'm not mad or anything like that, but those are songs basically MEANT for acoustic instruments.

[@JacobB177]

Aidan O Brien this one was a joke

[@TheKartoffel101]

MrPanda410 would be pretty boring. I mean the most songs you named here have already accustic parts in it. Also they had already played Unforgiven 1 as unpluged 2014 or 2008 at the same festival

[@Jedithedrummer]

What an embrassament
