FIRST TIME HEARING 'Metallica - Nothing Else Matters | GENUINE REACTION

[@Kmd2574]

Even Sir Elton John said this was "one of the greatest songs ever written". Just brilliant!

[@susanconstable2113]

Watching James get teary eyed when Elton said that to him was emotional.

[@missingrighty]

James was definitely fighting back the tears. It was awesome to see him get that kind of compliment considering James did not want to play it for the band at first.

[@lesliezerkel9719]

Our FAMILY THEME SONG!!!♥️✝️🎶

[@rockmetalplaylists5595]

Lol

[@Balaboshka]

lol in every reaction to "Nothing Else Matters" there's someone who will note this.

[@3dartstudio007]

They said "Metallica can't make no love song!"... James said "Hold my beer!"

[@karamcdonald1012]

YEEESSSSS!!!!!😂😂😂

[@ClintVanRensburg]

He said 'hold my cord bitch'

[@maxtatantinov4530]

I'm almost 60 years old, and I've been a metalhead for 45 years. And I have to admit that it's nice to see the new generations approaching and loving the Heavy Metal music!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@lexiburrows8127]

I got married to this song. I probably did not word that correctly, I mean it was playing in the background on my wedding day.

[@tinapatterson5022]

@@lexiburrows8127 Cool ✌

[@heathensportsballmom6888]

My 16 year old son loves Metallica. The next generation is finding the great stuff, just like we did the sounds of the 60s and 70s.

[@stephanieclark9849]

*James wrote this for a someone back in the 90's, but when they actually decided to record it, he was way over it. So they recorded it as a "love song" to their fans. People have asked what makes Metallica as a band different from others. One being that they've been together for 42 years last month, are still touring, and still putting out albums. Two of the original members are still there. Kirk Hammett has been with band for 40 of those 42 years, and Robert Trujillo (bassist) being the newest has been with Metallica for 20 years. Metallica is the first band ever to play on all 7 Continents. They've won nine Grammy Awards. Elton John covered 'Nothing Else Matters' while saying it was one of the best songs ever written and that Metallica was one of the greatest bands of all time. That kind of acknowledgement from someone like Elton John is one of the biggest compliments anyone could get. (You should react to that from the Howard Stern show). Metallica has played with the San Francisco Symphony, played at San Quentin prison, and played the soundtrack for Mission Impossible 2 after Tom Cruise gave them a private screening of the movie, persuading them to do it. You can listen to a Metallica song and want to jump in a mosh pit, and the next song you can rock your baby to sleep. They just kick ass.. they're Metallica!* 🤘🤘🤘

[@sandrafazackerley9526]

I fully agree with all you say & yes the Howard Stern show version is a must. ✌️💥

[@Metal_Mary]

Except Kirk's been there since 81' Mustaine was only in the band 9 months, when they went to record Killem All he was gone Kirk was there that was 81' NY. But your right, they're the GOATS of Metal, and my all time favorite. I'm 59 yrs and I've seen them since Los Angeles 1980! Crazy!! They still have it and sound better now! Seen them August at SOFI Stadium, Excellent and they delivered as always! Legends! Period!🤘❤️‍🔥

[@stephanieclark9849]

@@Metal_Mary Dave was kicked out in 1983.. the same year Kirk joined. Kill Em' All was recorded in May of 1983 and was released in July of 1983. Are you sure you didn't see them when they were playing clubs pre kill em' all? Their playlist would've been most of the same. You are 100% right about them and their concerts! They give their all and put on such a great show! And Mustaine.. well, I like Megadeth, I really do but I think Dave gets (or wants) way too much credit for his time with Metallica. He wasn't even with them for a full year. Now all the Dave fans are gonna come after me 🤘🤘🤗

I have questions… Master of puppets is from 83. This is from 93. Im relatively sure that they didn’t do Kill ‘em all when they were teen 🤔

[@skeeterinnewjersey5256]

My favorite Metallica song EVER.

[@waynecanning4122]

I predict you'll love Unforgiven off this same album even more than you love this

[@CadillacL]

W/out a doubt!

[@stigpetersen9701]

Us old metalheads may find the song “overplayed” but at the same time we must acknowledge that this song is a Masterpiece that together with Sandman and The Unforgiven persuaded the massive crowds of mainstream listeners to embrace Metallica sending these guys to the absolute summit of all Music….and they still reign that summit 🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘. To my knowledge The Black Album from 1991 is still today the most sold album in the US…tells you everything about mainstream listeners embracing Metallica

[@aradhomeslice]

"Now that's a masterpiece". Very accurate.

[@christinecarter7800]

I'm gonna say this again. You have an old soul. Embrace it

[@j.t.3798]

53 and still getting the same goosebumps you did, my young friend. This band is special. Their content is special. So glad the younger generation is appreciating their art. Its exceptional

[@kurtoliver7334]

I used to listen to this with my girl 30 odd years ago, were now married with 4 grown up kids!

[@TeresaWashenberger]

At the age of 13, my son played this on an acoustic at my wedding to his step-dad 22 years ago. It was unconventional but perfect.

[@Krow-go3ps]

"MY FRIEND OF MISERY" best song on the black album, it is perfection! Every instrument crushes it, the message is deep (as always) & no one EVER reacts to that masterpiece, it's a fucking shame ~ I would like to see you change that ~ good on ya youngin, enjoy the ride 🤘

[@davemason6501]

Metallica will be remembered hundreds of years from now, because of this song, it is that good.

[@rachelsmith8381]

I feel bad for kids who grew up with Just mainly rap, what you feel with songs like this is depth and sincerity, which a lot of rap music lacks. Music has been a major part of my life since birth, music of many styles. It's how I cope with pain, it can create a strong connection between you and someone you haven't ever met in sharing feelings that shape you, it's the language I speak when my own words fail. It is a kind of sacred magic that is changing in a way that makes me sad for younger folks. At the same time, how jealous I am that you get to hear so much musical beauty for the first time. Enjoy the ride.

[@wheredidkrisko.]

While most Metallica fans would say that this is not the album they reach for when they want to listen to Metallica, there is no debating the fact that this album changed the entire landscape of music. Thus is one of the highest grossing albums of all time. Front to back this album made it clear Metallica were destined to become legends. It was a huge turning point in their career... For better or worse. Love the reaction my guy! 🍻🍻

[@HeavyMetalForLife]

the black album gave the world all non-shitty sounding metal music that has followed

[@philb.6418]

love seeing todays generation feeling the goosebumps, and same excitement i felt 30 years ago....rock on dude!

[@sethterwilliger9434]

If you are liking the black album one of my personal favorites is “ my friend misery” Love the reactions

[@MotorbreathChannel]

Mine as well. The bass intro to it... It always makes me feel cozy but without losing the perspective of the whole world waiting outside at the same time.

[@Metal_Mary]

YESSS! Live version 2019!! Excellent song, James kills it on the solo too! ❤️‍🔥 That's one of my favorite songs on the black album!! It's heavy on the bass kinda like Sad but true. But it's got alot of bad ass solos from the boys!

[@ebnykween]

Damn yes! Absolute fire.

[@DercJezioranski]

[@nerdierakiowaasvidankio3958]

Tge coolest thing for me about metallica is that all of them have degrees in music and they put them to such good use and that is how they artuculate their music to sound they way it dies and hiw they just blend together

[@Nomah1979]

This was my graduating HS class song. ...Class of 1998 There is nothing like two hundred 17-18-year-old kids singing this together. That ending line in the last verse before the very last chorus where James sings "yeah, yeah" That was the biggest belt out you've ever heard in a 95-degree gym on a humid June evening....They ended up sending 2 older folks to the hospital that night due to the heat. I will never forget it

[@darlakowalski2248]

Sweet Mollyboy, you’ll find that the songs that are NOT in your face are the ones you take into your soul forever. Love watching you appreciate real music!

[@philc2729]

This is clearly one of the best slower metal songs ever. Mad goosebumps from amazing timing, well placed gaps, etc.

[@karenstacymayne4156]

When Metallica was popular in the 90s, I was mostly listening to country music. Then one day, my son convinced me to listen to Nothing Else Matters. I can’t remember what year, but it’s been a long time. That clinched it for me with Metallica. This is not only my favorite Metallica song, but one of my all-time favorite songs ever. It is beautiful and, well there’s not enough good words to say about it. I liked the comment about how they’re the only band that have played on seven continents, and I’m going to have to look up the version of Elton John singing Nothing Else Matters.

[@josephadams7379]

"Sad But True" another gem from the same album.

[@MotorbreathChannel]

I told you man under one of the previous Metallica reactions - you're gonna LOVE their 90s stuff. I was born in 88, so by the time when I was getting into their music it was the early 2000s. But I grew up in the 90s and I would always catch myself thinking while listening to their 90s albums "they have captured a whole decade in their music, it is like going back to my childhood even though I haven't been listening to them and Metal in general back then, they have captured how the world felt to me back then". And to think that this song was released in 1991 and they have just captured the whole of the 80s decade with their previous albums... This is why Metallica - at least in my eyes - is probably the greatest Metal band of all time.

[@garymulviel9948]

No probably about it kid first saw them in the 80s last saw them in 2019 they are mind-blowing still..keep rocking

[@sashidozerako262]

This song was excruciating to listen to at 12 after my nana had died from a heart attack on her way home from work in May 5th 1999... This brings all that sorrow to the surface. beautiful song as she was. It was the first pain of loss I ever had that made me open up myself in such a way of sorrow. I wish she were still here. God bless youre soul my nana Glenda R. Dandridge. 25 years later and I still love and miss her it still hurts so much.

[@jeffmorehead1311]

Metallica is the type of group that I wouldn't listen to a whole album from, but once and awhile they land a song that you can't deny their talent and song writing ability. The delivery on this one is perfect

[@Sportsref13]

Have heard this song thousands of times .. and I still get Goosebumps

[@jamescrutchfield2251]

A Metallica masterpiece....

[@sulyvahnthetyrant7378]

You should listen to some of their newer stuff too. Here are some recommendations: - Spit out the Bone - That was Just Your life - Lux Æterna - The Day that never comes - St. Anger (It’s not as bad as people say) - Suicide and Redemption - Inamorata - Atlas Rise

[@Metal_Mary]

Hardwired Fuel & some more older ones: Fade to Black Sanitarium Disposable Heros (live Mexico City) And live in Nimes France: "The day that never comes Seattle 89' Creeping Death Actually any song in that concert!! Absolutely 💯 fire 92' live Of Wolf and Man (I think San Diego?) Live versions are just Absolutely 💯 better!! Just Legends!! I'm 59 and have been a Metallica fan since 80' in Los Angeles!! They moved 5 months later after finding Cliff Burton RIP 😢 one of the best Bassist I've ever witnessed, Ever! But I've loved each one, Jason brought so much to Metallica he was a beast of a bassist and back up vocals unmatched!! Robert Trujillo is a beast as well he's fast and has played with some bangers, including Ozzy, Infectious Grooves and Suicidal Tendencies which has opened for Metallica wayyy back when...crazy. Just legendary guys! Imo. ❤🖤🤘

Do you get goosebumps because you feel it. It’s a very, very fine song.

[@joelluis4934]

Bro! The rabbit hole deepens!! So far you’ve listened to mostly songs off their first 3 albums, which is the thrashy heavy stuff. This album, ‘the black album’ was their 5th album and it catapulted them to biggest heavy metal band in the world. Now you can hear the many different faces of Metallica. They have so much variety in their music. This album, as well as load and reload, they really explore song new sounds and there are some absolute gems on them. Love your Metallica journey so far, but you’re still at the tip of the iceberg. And I envy you for that. Getting that, holy shit they can do this feeling for the first time is just amazing

[@dawnpelz8570]

I guess I have to point out that Metallica was already by far the biggest heavy metal band in the world before this album came out. Bob Rock helped them commercialize the brand which is why it was their last album I purchased. I can still taste that gagging sadness that happened to my 18yo self when I first heard this one. "....couldn't be much more from the heart..." not trying to offend, just being honest.

On Howard Stern's show, Elton John said that this song was as near perfection as it gets. Hetfield got choked up on air. It was an awesome moment to see.

[@MollyBoyTV]

That’s so crazy you said that, I was literally just watching it. I saw Miley Cyrus sang with them too. I haven’t watched it though as I might do a reaction video to it

[@VadersRage]

@MollyBoyTV There's a version (if you could call it that) of Miley covering Nothing Else Matters. Avoid it....I beg you. It's time that you'll never get back. It's a full-on assault on the ears that will make you question who thought it would be a good idea to actually record it. I could very well be in the minority, hating it and all. I don't quite know how the song was received by the public.....but to me it was nails on a chalkboard.

The creation and recording of this album was a very special hard journey that the band had to go through to accompany James on his most difficult path that he had to take otherwise he would have lost himself... very, very emotional for all the fans , as well the songs. " Couldn't be much more from the Heart "

[@PitfallHarry72]

The first song where a lot of later Metallica fans discovered that James could actually sing.
