Reacting to The Warning Covering Metallica.. | Enter Sandman

This performance was absolutely insane! Very cool.

[@tehawfulestface1337]

In 2014 The Warning did a faithful cover of Enter Sandman in their basement when they were 9, 12, and 14 years of age. Filmed it for their grandparents to see their progress. Went viral and seen by over 20 million viewers and by Metallica themselves. Metallica knew they could do Enter Sandman faithfully, instead they tasked The Warning to rework Enter Sandman with Canadian singer Alessia Cara for the 30th anniversary Blacklist album. To keep the lyrics, but to turn the song upside down and inside out. Make it their own. Classically trained musicians at an early age, The Warning even have a version of Enter Sandman where they are accompanied on stage by a string section of an orchestra!

Tady zase někdo něco zaslechl a přibásnil si k tomu hromadu hnoje! 🤮 Metallica nepověřila, ale požádala a Alecii si přizvali The Warning, nikoliv na "pověření" Metallicy! A nežádali je o převrácení hudby, požadovali zachování textu! To je tak, když se vypráví od huby k hubě a na konci z toho vyleze úplně jiný příběh! 🤑 Someone heard something again and added a bunch of dung to it! 🤮 Metallica didn't commission, they asked and Alecia were invited by The Warning, not on Metallica's "commission"! And they didn't ask them to cover the music, they asked to keep the lyrics! That's the way it is when you tell a story from mouth to mouth and a completely different story comes out at the end! 🤑

[@carlossaraiva8213]

How nice of Metallica to have written such a good song for The Warning.

[@reactionsaccount3955]

They were invited by Metallica themselves, with pop artist Alessia Cara, to cover this song for the Blacklist album, celebrating the 30th anniversary of the Black album. Metallica specifically asked for the artists invited to completely re-imagine the songs, but out of the 53 covers, The Warning, even though they were by far the least well known and the youngest invited, were one of the few that had the guts to go that far with the arrangements.

[@mykemech]

A legendy se řetězově množí... 😰 And the legends multiply in chains... 😰 Proto nikdy nebudu fanatik WA, ale nezávislý fanoušek The Warning! Nemám rád ovce ve stádě! 😝 This is why I will never be a WA fanatic, but an independent fan of The Warning! I don't like sheep in the flock! 😝

[@KansaSCaymanS]

They did a straight cover of the original in 2014 that went viral, and sent them down the path to fame. 😎👍

The Warning are a power trio sent from heaven. Incredible storytellers.

[@blaineoshaughnessy685]

I’m in for more of The Warning. I can’t get enough. By the smile on your face, I can tell that you’re one of us. A rock dude wanting to hear something new and fresh. Here it is. ✌🏻😎

[@jeffteague3096]

Every aspect of this reimagining of Enter Sandman is mesmerizing and flawless. It’s impossible to look away from this band. They’re magnetic!

I agree at 200%

[@JulioHernandez-jl9qk]

They were 22, 20 and 17 during this performance

[@DadQuixote7]

They could play it straight since they've been doing that since they were children but to me, this is far more impressive. No one else on the Blacklist album tried anything like this. These women are pure fire! 🔥 🤟🤟🤟

[@cyrid-5786]

The Warning did a straight cover of Enter Sandman... I think you will love to see that video since they were really young 😁

[@alleyogut]

This was SO cool!

[@spaceknave]

The thing is it was commisioned by Metallica for their Blacklist album, 30th anniversary of the Black Album. The directions were to change it up turn it inside out. They clearly understood the assignment. Thanks for coming back. Plenty more a great things out there from them, they are different every time.

[@scottinokc]

They did the "traditional" cover of Enter Sandman as kids and went viral with that video kickstarting their career. Although I prefer their reimagined version, the original is a MUST watch. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5PShox4brF5gLs

[@TheDunadan01]

Metallica asked them to participate in their 30th anniversary "Blacklist" album. This ended up as the first track on that LP , so I think it's fair to say that Metallica liked their version of "Enter Sandman".

[@DanDuke]

I love this version. They make it their own then give it back to Metallica at the end. So awesome.

[@robertkrawitz8237]

Even that they did their own way rather than simply copying Metallica. The drum pattern in particular is quite different and follows the melodic line rather than simply beating time.

[@TheFemiaTeam]

There's a great cover of Atlas Rise at the Whiskey A Go-Go from a few years ago you might like. Atlas Rise was the last cover they did before performing their own music exclusively. Enter Sandman is more of a remake than a cover.

[@RipThru]

Erol, nice reaction to this rendition of Enter Sandman. Folk have already given you the backstory and also recommended their viral 2014 traditional cover that put them on the map. For next suggest: “Hell you Call a Dream” official live from the Pepsi Center in Mexico. It’s phenomenal and was just dropped in March. You’ll see them bring the energy up a level, especially Dany’s voice (guitarist) and you will absolutely love watching Pau on the drums and Ale (“Ah-ley”) absolutely driving the whole song on her bass. If you stay with this concert, I think you’ll really like “Dust to Dust”, next. Thanks again. Really enjoyed that!

[@robertkrawitz8237]

Hell You Call A Dream (or HYCAD) is just tremendously powerful. The live version is (IMO) vastly better than the studio; it's heavier, more passionate, and the sheer joy on Pau's face is something to behold.

[@RipThru]

@@robertkrawitz8237💯🤘

[@Nxort]

You can easily choose any of the 22 songs from that concert, you won't go wrong. 😉

[@Robertsmith-dy3sh]

Welcome to The Warning! I hope you continue with this amazing band, they have a very deep catalog of awesome songs for you to discover!

[@TerryParsons1724]

How about those harmonies that's what I love about TW version just so perfect. Saving the iconic riff til the end is genius. I'm glad people explained the story the 2014 cover is pretty cool to see as requested. I think you'd like their latest live video Hell you call a Dream at the Pepsi Center it's a beauty. Great reaction thank you. 🔥⚡

[@pablosartor6715]

Absolutely EPIC live performance!! This is the best version of ES I ever heard! These sisters are the best power trio of XXI century! Viva The Warning!! ⚡⚡⚡

[@blaineoshaughnessy685]

Amen ✌🏻😎

[@WheresMyThribble]

Great reaction! 🤘 Their original, straight-up cover of Enter Sandman , in their in-home studio "The Warning Cave" when they were 9 (Ale), 12 (Pau) and 14 (Dany) is what helped originally put them on the world's radar. I know you would really enjoy it and I would love to see your reaction to it 😀 kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5PShox4brF5gLs

[@georgewashington5979]

You got to check out The Warning's doing Atlas Rise from Metallica at the Whisky a Go Go. Truly awesome.

[@WaldoKitty]

DPA/TW and Alessia Cara certainly understood the assignment! Alessia Cara is a Grammy winning Canadian Pop and R&B singer... they had 10 days to rip this rendition of *Enter Sandman* from the ether and make it a darker, more eerie, and a more haunting lullaby than the original metal version... this was done because they, and many other artists from numerous genres, were invited by Metallica to take one of the songs from the original "Black" album, keep the lyrics and change it up how ever you like... play it backwards, upside down, whatever... this was all for the 30th anniversary of the "Black" album... all the submissions from 50someodd artists were put on the 2021 "The Metallica Blacklist" album... the proceeds from the album sales are split 50/50 with half going to Metallica's "All Within My Hands Foundation" and the other half being donated to a charity of the participating artists' choice. in the OMV, Dany (guitar) and Alessia share the lead vocals until they are in the three doorways when Dany takes over and Alessia does more of the background oooohs and aaaahs... the version they play in concert has Dany doing the vocals with a backing track of Alessia's ohhhs and ahhhs... of course Ale (bass) and Pau (drums) join in with their angelic harmonies in both... this is a fantastic reimagining of the iconic original... this 60+ year old rocker loves both versions of *Enter Sandman* but this one by TW and Alessia gets more airtime these days 😹 TWA ⚡🤘😸🤘⚡ TWA

[@christinaalgate4899]

There's a video of the girls opening their Blacklist Album

[@3designsam]

Les invitaron a versionar una de las canciones de la lista negra para el 30 aniversario del álbum, junto con Alessia. En unos 10 días crearon esta versión, la grabaron, la editaron y todo lo demás, y realizaron el vídeo completo. Adaptaron la canción al estilo pop en el que Alessia aparece al principio para hacerla más inclusiva. Alessia estaba en Canadá y ellos en México.

[@Incognito-8884]

Welcome to The Warning Army, good to see that you're enjoying the ride. As others have mentioned the crushing of the original already took place in 2014 by two teenagers and a nine year old! I have only three suggestions for you when it comes to TW. The first is to watch it all, not just the lives and music videos but also their interviews, Ted talks, aftermovies etc. The second one is react to the songs from Queen Of The Murder Scene in the order of the album. Since it's a concept album, and a very good one at that, the best experience is to follow the story. Number three is when you get the chance to see them live do it! I've been to two shows on their European tour recently, have a third one in August and managed to get tickets for their second date in Auditorio Nacional in Mexico City early next year. They have many very good live recordings like this one but experiencing it yourself is on a whole other level.

[@Enoughcrypto]

Damn………

[@katconley2995]

Great reaction. This is on Metallica's Blacklist album. You should see them do the original version when they were 9, 12, and 14 years old.

[@alvasquez2931]

Queens of rock. Beautifully done. ❤

[@satorimystic]

Their cover of 'Enter Sandman' may be the best cover of an epic, classic, rock song, ever!!) Their entire discography, to date, is immaculately conceived! They are, IMHO ... "The Best Hard Rock Power Trio of the 21st Century" Heed `The Warning'!!!🦉🤟⚡🍩👍⚠💥

[@someperry7263]

Original version of this re-take is also fabulous. It's done with great pop singer Alessia Cara. It exists on Metallica's Blacklist album, and has a great video too.

[@Wishi13]

I love this particular version of the song - more than their studio version (with Alisia Cara), thanks for your reaction. 👍

[@Frisco40]

Try Revenant, live at Teatro Metropolitan CDMX 2022. That song has their best harmonies. Kinda reminds me of The Eagles live. Same flavor of rock.

[@StrdFrgman]

I hope one day, Metallica plays THIS version as a nod to The Warning. With a 10-20 piece choir for the high harmony part. It would be sooo cool!! 🤘🕊❤️🤘⚡️⚡️⚡️

[@Robwilson76]

Keeping rock alive!! Anything from this concert is absolutely amazing. My favorites are z, survive and dust to dust, how ever there isn't a single song that doesn't rock

[@PamAuld]

The smile on your face from the first moments the song began says it all. Great reaction. Thanks!

[@ErolReacts]

😊 thank you

[@SkittleKicksPlays]

There is something so very special about The Warning. Dany, Pau and Ale's version honestly is equal to the original, and sits happily next to the original. What they did was took one of the most iconic songs in metal history, turned it on it's head and made it even creepier. At some point check out the official music video the girls did, because there is a lot of musical bliss that isn't performed live. For example Pau speaks the bedtime prayer (now I lay me down to sleep) in this very delicate voice, and during "hush little baby" you hear all three vocalizing a harmony with ahhs (spine tingling) with another track of Dany gently singing "hush little baby don't say a word." As you rightfully pointed out in your reaction to Evolve there is a deep classic vibe the girls create. The influence of "their dad's music" as Dany stated once, is very rooted into their DNA. As a musician myself of 40 plus years with 34 focused on bass guitar The Warning have hit me so hard. Ale is among my bass influences because the notes she doesn't play are just as important as the notes she does. Meaning she knows when to riff with Dany, or hold the beat with Pau. Even take the main riff (like in Dust to Dust or Disciple). Pau being the head writer/composer, music genius, multi award winning, co-director, scream of doom queen, and much more of the band reminds me of how much Neil Peart added to RUSH. Dany doesn't need to be some shredding guitarist because we've already had many of them (Vai, Satch, Petrucci), but she can rip! That's what we've needed in guitarist/singer for a very long time, and it's so awesome. It takes bands decades to reach multiple generations, and these girls did it in just 10 years having five to entertain: Baby Boomers, Gen X, Gen Y/Millennial, Gen Z (theirs) and Gen Alpha the kids behind Gen Z.

[@mavfin8720]

Looks like she's playing the guitar Lzzy Hale gave her in Texas, too.

[@TimoArula]

First, I'm not the biggest Metallica fan, but when I heard this version, I literally jumped out of my seat !!! The Edge, the Attitude, THE DRUMMS... This song is on Metallica's tribute album "The Metallica Blacklist", And it's great and all (Alessia Cara is the singer with The Warning), but I love Dany's voice more. This song needs a Rock edge not R&B singer. And, That Guitar what Dany is playing is a stagegift from Lizzy Hale ! NWSU/FloorFan/Epican/Ayreonaut/TWA 🤘😎🤘

[@danieljodrey]

Well Erol your batting 1.000 ! Great reactions all! I LOVE THIS BAND !! ✌️💖🎼

[@jeffreyjameson5510]

Keep going! ⚡️🤘

[@oldmanyeni1663]

I have to admit, I am not a Metallica fan, and I was sick of this song, until this version came along. A lullaby where Dany very sweetly puts you to bed, then rouses the troops, shares a little prayer, the angel chorus comes to sing you to sleep, then Boom, the hammer drops. I think of this very much as the female version of the Sandman tale. So good. Delicate, powerful, soothing, strong, gentle, fierce-all at the same time. I love this one.

[@user-gf2xi8po7i]

Love their version better than Metalica, shows real talent to still make this great.

[@SO.CAL-D.Edwards]

Very nice.. You might consider adjusting the size of my the video you're playing. It's kinda lost in the corner. "Too small" otherwise it's a great job.. this is the only cover they play these days but they do have a lot of old videos of the younger years.. 🤘🎶✌️

[@ErolReacts]

Last week we tried posting some videos with a bigger screen and they got blocked so we’re experimenting with what size to make that screen to make sure things don’t get blocked. Thanks.

[@lancerwrc68]

I think everything has already been said in the comments about this song, it is a great re-interpretation of it. Just for you to know, that white Gibson Explorer that Dany is playing was gifted to her by Lzzy Hale of Halestorm in a tour where The Warning was opening for them. Lzzy felt so inspired by Dany that she did that as a way of "paying forward" a similar action that happened to her years ago. Look for that moment on YT when Lzzy gives Dany the guitar, it is touching, and also an interview where Lzzy tells the story. Lzzy has been an idol of Dany, so you can imagine how she felt about this. Great reaction 🤘🤘

[@mrairbusfan]

I've seen them live 3 weeks ago and they are fenominal !! Super concert! This august I'm gone see them again! can't wait!

I love your reactions to The Warning. I noticed you have recently been doing Radiohead. The drummer of The Warning ("Pau", for Paulina) some years back did a solo cover of "Creep", shot on her iPhone, played on the family's slightly-out-of-tune upright piano. Watch it and you'll see why It has over 900K views. WATCH UNTIL THE VERY END!! You have been warned! 🤟

Aloha Erol, Welcome to The Warning Army! You will read great comments from TWA below and above this comment, but I would like to invite you to watch their documentaries to educate yourself as to their history and personalities in their own words as well as their family and team members! TIDAL Rising - The Warning; and MayDay in the Making episodes 1-6; these will give you a better idea of who these talented young women really are! And please, do not be confused...this is no mere rabbit hole, The Warning is like a caldera...because their artistry is as wide as it is deep!!! Salud! #APDVillaReality
