I am going to cry

[@camannwordsmith]

I've seen quite a lot of covers of this song, and this is unquestionably the best.

[@dirmusloner7963]

Cliff would be proud of this performance. Excellent work man.

[@darkkrenaissance42]

while Jason might be a tad low key jealous

[@timcole421]

LOL cliff didn't play on this.

[@canadavey]

One of the best covers of this song I've seen on youtube and the closest to the original Metallica recording and it's all performed by one person. Incredible! Well done!

[@kasmanto3560]

I can't believe it!!!, it is one guy work huh?!! first I kinda not believing it, is the guy the same.

[@pitcher105]

Amén!

Verbatim, and awesome!

[@tomdrum1394]

Holy shite!!!! I mean- GODDAMN MAN🤘🏾 YOU HAVE SOUL & ARE AWESOME ❤❤❤

[@JJBombarda]

holy shit! no words left!

[@VonBravo]

This is really really excellent. What a great performance on all instruments, the guitar tones are brilliantly dialed in, and its recorded so well...I mean what a joy to watch/listen to. I've watched all of the covers of this song on youtube and this one blows them all away. (Now I'm wishing I had this specific multiinstrument recording without the guitars as a backing track!)

[@Toki2012]

10 out of 10.

[@GibsonFender]

Metallica most absolutely beautiful riff is in this song. Fantastic performance.

[@AndyB1286]

Brilliant performance - especially the quiet section. Well done, you did Metallica justice (no pun intended!)

[@stephenpoole7828]

Fair dues. You have great talent

[@anibalburgoslopez6706]

Outstanding....

[@Leo_Deividi]

fantastic

[@aerodynamik9771]

So much talent here. I think I prefer this version to the actual studio version. Every note and every nuance perfectly executed and replicated in a much better quality recording. Simply Amazing!!

Это лучшее, что я видел в Ютубе за последние 3 года, с момента выхода кавера на “The Call Of Ktulu”. Ты большой мастер своего дела, спасибо 🙏

[@olegpugachev6785]

Николай Стравинский очень крут 👍👍👍

[@ELECTRICSCARS]

Absolute great Cover 🙏🏻

[@lonesomeriver]

This is amazing I love it so much

[@cisco680]

As a drummer/guitarist myself, I’m a huge Metallica fan. I’ve always wanted to do something like this. If I could do this even half as well, I would have likely already done it. Great work!

[@jaipeng-yu]

👍 thumbs up.. what a great performance.

[@innerve2799]

6:55 ... Любимое место во всём металле 90-х. По мере приближения в этом видео, сижу, слушаю и думаю: "Если здесь не окажется того текста - повешусь нафиг!" )) Я остался жив и счастлив от этого кавера, как енот.) Николай, вы - большой молодец. Трудолюбивый, открытый, своеобразный. Среди выходцев из России - один из двух самых интересных музыкантов, кмк.

[@adscientia8370]

GREAT

[@jooyoonchung3593]

I like it with bass. Hits different. You even got the same nervous vibrato that Kirk uses. Well done!

[@tufangiant2947]

A masterpiece...Thanks for your all effort and soulfull of playing...You give all the sadness of song. Even I'm writing my tears are falling...Hail from Turkey...

[@Luckey917]

Metallica really had something special going back then. Great playing, great editing, great mixing!! Amazing video!!

[@dustinmoline3572]

So this is what it would sound like if you could hear Jason on the album.

[@PaulMarsay]

Listen to and Jason for All

[@bluetheminx]

How this doesn’t have a million views is a fucking crime. Amazing performance man, incredible and talented display of real music

[@jackieboy826]

THE BEST cover of this masterpiece on KZbin. THE BEST. Thanks for making it.

[@Gilmour3]

Well done my dude! This is fantastic in all aspects! Cheers from Greece!

[@harrisontownsend910]

Man, they used to make magic together, then it happened. In the blink of an eye he was gone. The master bassman, Cliff Burton. Still the magic went on but not the same. Eventually they lost their magic touch. They stopped turning lead to gold. With the passing of time they may eventually have their special touch return.

[@martinpacuch3570]

Absolute hammer! Perfect job, hope I could play it one day...

[@mutantkoffee]

So cool

[@jasoncrump1886]

Hell yeah man thats one of my favorite songs . It'll be played at my funeral.

[@jaipeng-yu]

oh yeah,be sure to invited me when you're dead. 😶‍🌫️

[@MrRes63661]

Damn bro - i'm geekin out to this big time. Absolute mastery on that breakdown at 3:50. I always wanted to hear it mixed/played like that. So choral in a dark metal way. RIP CLIFF BURTON!!! Long live SELFIEMAN

[@Breeeezy787]

PERFECTION NOTHING BUT PERFECTION. THIS IS THE BEST COVER OF THIS SONG EVER!

[@elsiononrf]

[@bryanlarson4189]

Man, as I continue to replay this over again, I can't get over how thick and rich the bass is starting from the 4:49 to the 5:45 mark. Love to hear that sound ring out, it gives some extra heart to the song.

[@WeAreTheUniverse78]

Simply put amazing man. One of the all time greatest songs to me 🙏🎧
