Metallica - Only Happy When It Rains (Acoustic)

[@suminshizzles6951]

One of the few metallica songs i actually like. I am a garbage fan. They did it justice. They made it their own. It is unique. I like it.

[@Somebody_else_u_know]

A legendary cover.

[@acadia5898]

what is bad about this cover? it sounds fine to me

[@livingthroughtheblue]

It sure doesn’t sound like Garbage!

[@estebanolivares6205]

@@livingthroughtheblue but is a cover jajaja

[@airixxxx]

@@livingthroughtheblue That's the point of a cover, it should sound like Metallica.

[@EvanSchatz]

@@airixxxx right? This is one of my favorite songs, and I never knew Metallica covered it but.... it's pretty much what I expected. It's fine

[@ccc-qp7el]

It just sounds really bad..

[@willjamesb]

People here don't understand the concept of c0vers. Is Jimis version of All Along the Watchtower shit too.? Or Nirvanas version of Man Who Sold the World.? Neither of those sound like the original either.

[@YajasDwivedi]

Such a great cover! Love it!!!

[@danielthoma2907]

As others have pointed out: it's a cover. If a cover tries to imitate like the original, it's usually just a worse version of the same song (there are very, very few exceptions). A good cover manages to adapt the material and transform it in some way into a new direction or style... just create a different experience with some of the main ingredients. I would argue that Metallica managed to do just that here. In fact, I think they did just fine in all of their BridgeSchool Benefit covers, even covering their own songs without making them into lesser versions: (e.g.: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b6mZYqpnmJqUeMU).

[@suminshizzles6951]

Harry Styles, whose material i am not familiar with, covered a Peter Gabriel song called Sledgehammer. Check that cover out.

[@emanuellandeholm5657]

Hetfield killed the modal interchange. This isn't the same song. That's like playing Radiohead's Creep without the minor 4.

[@zaggyzigg5043]

I like it .

[@andriisikora992]

2:43 savagely cool

[@МаркЭнтони-ъ2з]

Both videos of songs "Until it sleeps" and "Only Happy...." - one director is Sam Bayer

[@OMINOIDmusic]

this is awesome. thanks so much for posting!!!

[@emanuellandeholm5657]

No no no, the first "pour" in the chorus should be over a major chord, (c# if I'm not wrong). That's the twist! Modal interchange. It's the song, and he changed it. I'm so mad! :D

[@TallisLizzy]

Excellente

[@battleborn8658]

Sounds good to me.

[@seanx8646]

It's a great song and a decent cover. Metallica could do a lot better if he had multiple takes and a studio for a day.

[@suminshizzles6951]

Yeah the only think lacking in it for me was the backing vocals were not up to snuff on that day. Give them some time and like all records released it will be a good as you get experience that has been polished. This was live so it was ok.

[@nuklearmayhemofficial]

Unforgiven VI...but who's Brian?

[@guiverno1984]

This song and Daria's theme are in my opinion the typical songs of grunge era...

[@mailtoramil]

Diaria cha-cha-cha!

Whoa wait what lol

[@brianjondoeneesmith]

James and Lily lovely lily

[@DL-tp7zg]

Metallica prince

[@mattgoth3975]

Not bad

[@spectorfriend]

Back vocals at the end are awful lol. But I like James interpretation even if it's not perfect. He feels the song.

[@freebee8221]

Ive always loved this song but this just doesnt sound nearly as good as the original.

[@michellew2knz]

It’s rare to hear a bad cover from Metallica, this must be the exception...

[@frantungate4749]

Are you forgetting the prince cover?

[@andrereynaert160]

Bad cover? It's your opinion...

[@edenfvazzzz]

Not only her opinion. It's my opinion too. this cover is the worst cover Metallica has ever done.

[@edenfvazzzz]

And the second worst is the Metallica's cover of Would?.

[@suminshizzles6951]

As a Garbage fan i have to disagree. I think they made it their own and paid their dues. The backing vocals are lacking a bit but other than that its ok i think.

[@JGomezabino]

i love James.. BUT... don't do this song again bro lol

[@yyzeta]

Surely you also dislike “Hero of the day”

This was in 2006 and it was only for charity to raise money for special needs children.....

What the fuh happen to Metalcal?

[@isaacisaac3416]

The song doesn't suit him very well, interesting experiment though

[@duketogo2020]

This song is made by and about chicks, that why it doesn't suit him.

[@Jxjzusvsjxoidshsbsjjsjjj]

His voice would be perfect for country, but not for this.

[@pavelnazarov2709]

Даже Garbage спеть не могут. Жалкая кавер группа стала. Печаль. Под пиво, и воспоминания о прошлом пойдет. Не более.

MetallikA is legend.And you continue to drink beer and remember the past
