This is what is on the Metallica Blacklist album (30th anniversary of the Black album). Metallica reached out to Alessia, a Canadian singer, to do a song, somebody in management, I forget exactly who, also worked with The Warning and suggested a collab. They had 10 days to do this(7 days of recording time). During lockdown, Alessia recorded in Canada, and TW in Mexico. The live version, Dany sings all the lyrics, but they kept Alessia's oohs and ahhs on backing track. Tw recorded the video in an abandoned bldg near their home. As a Metallica fan myself, I love their reimagined take on the song. The Warning were on Jimmy Kimmel the other day, they played "S!ck" and "Automatic Sun", both videos are up on their channel.

FYI: They are both signed with Chris Smith at 21 Entertainment Group in Toronto as their international booking agent. Alessia didn't even know a single song from the Black album, so Chris suggested the collaboration to Alessia, who liked the idea, and then Metallica, who also liked the idea. Chris first saw TW at the Whiskey in 2019. Rudy said after about 8 bars into the opening song Chris approached and said, "I want to be a part of this." Rudy didn't know who Chris was and politely went back stage. After the show Chris introduced himself and a short time later flew to Monterrey, MX to meet with them and signed them to 21EG. This was before they met up with Jason Flom and signed with Lava Records. And Chris was involved in the TW negotiations with Republic / Lava. He said it is rare that the artists are involved with every step in negotiating label contracts, but the girls were involved in page of the contract. He also said it is rare that contract negotiations last 7 months, like theirs did. Mostly it was about Patreon. Rudy said the Republic lawyers didn't know anything about Patreon and TW weren't going to sign if they had to give up their Patreon platform. That was the real sticking point in the negotiations, and as usual, the girls got their way.

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

After they submitted this to Metallica, but before the Black List album was released, a Marvel universe video game asked Metallica if they could use some of Enter Sandman for their trailer for the game release. Metallica offered them *this* track, so the first time I heard any of it was in the trailer for the Midnight Suns game. Later this track was used for a while on Fox Sports NFL game coverage. Some people prefer the harder edge of the live version you reviewed earlier, and I agree that in a rock concert it fits better, but there's a charm to the way this version moves from Alessia's pop, through to The Warning's rock and ends up at Metallica's riff at the end. chef's kiss

This version is the first song on disc one of the Metallica's "Blacklist" album. The band really liked it. The Warning was the only band to flip the song on its head like this. All the other bands did a pretty standard cover with maybe some different instruments. Alissia Cara is a Canadian pop star. They were given a week to write and record this song.

Canadian singer Alessia Cara and The Warning did the music video separately because of the pandemic. Once restrictions were lifted Alessia and The Warning did get a chance to perform together live once. They were said to have developed a strong friendship. Now they only have Alessia’s prerecorded background vocals in their live performances. The Warning ever gracious, Dany always mentions Alessia as part of the song when introducing the song. Metallica tasked those invited to the Blacklist album, to make the song they cover their own.

This song is on Metallica's tribute album "The Metallica Blacklist", And it's great and all, but... this song Live is WAY Better. Don't misunderstand, I got Nothing against Alessia's singing in this music video, but Live at Teatro Metropolitan CDMX is The Ultimate Version, Dany's voice is made for this song. This song needs a Rock edge, not an R&B singer. ⚡Viva la WARNING⚡ NWSU/FloorFan/Epican/Ayreonaut/TWA 🤘😎🤘.

The initial invite was for Cara, and she had a hard time figuring out what to do for the project, since metal/hard rock is most definitely _not_ her genera specialty. An exec at the label thought of introducing her to _The Warning_ , thinking they could definitely help out - and the results speak for themselves. There was a bit of back-and-forth with _Metallica_ , who were well aware of who the girls were, so there was no real objection. That the finished product was recorded and ready for delivery in basically a week is amazing!!

Out of all the artists invited to partake on the 2021 Blacklist 30th Anniversary charity LP, this is by far my absolute favorite. I bought this collection, and it takes forever and a day to get through all of it. 2nd place goes to artists I never would give a listen to these days, but their reimagined version of " Nothing Else Matters" by Elton John, Chad Smith & Mily Cirus is also great! 3rd spot would be by Volbeat's cover of "Don't Tread on me". Everytime these songs get played, the charity gets another donation, same as when you purchase the collection. Half of the proceeds goes to Metallicas All Within my hands foundation, and have surpassed $1M so far. The other half goes to the artists charity of choice.

When you have some time (HA!), you may also want to check out two other (not The Warning) "Enter Sandman" covers. Whether you react to them is up to you; I'm suggesting them just for your own enjoyment. The first, from about 8 years ago, is by another all-sister band SHEL (an acronym made of each member's first name). Sadly they're no longer playing together under that moniker, but this cover has a frozen, brittle feel that invokes a different kind of fear. Then there's the slightly shorter version produced about 3 years ago as part of the promotion for Amazon's "Sound of Metal" original film. It's essentially a drum trio featuring Elise Trouw on vocal & drums, with additional drums from Travis Barker (Blink 182) & Carey Watkins. The coolest thing, though, is the ASL lyric interpretation from Paul Raci (who also acts in the movie).

First off Mrs. R, great channel you have here 👏👏 - I've got the list of all 447 (not AF447 - as autocorrect remembers I've typed often before) of your videos handy now - can search by band within your repertoire - I'm really looking forward to this (and of course I'll get all your new releases by notifications too 😊) My landing page here was your review of The Warning's Ginger shots, but then saw you reviewed Tina S too. I'm so glad you've also reviewed quite a bit of The Warning's music too - they are completely the opposite to Tina S - the Villareals are making their name through their own original material (my favourites are *Money* and *Narcisista*) , though they launched their career with this cover : Enter Sandman - METALLICA Cover - The Warning 25M views 10 years ago Oh BTW, Blacklist album is on youtube, from memory around 30 tracks in total, covering about 6 Metallica tracks. And The Warning (only moderately featuring Alessia) is number one on the Blacklist. Only 2 or 3 tracks of the 30 were actually of any musical appeal to me. If you want the gold standard for The Warning though, try their Teatro Metropolitano live concert. Dr. R. 😉 [Edit - checked with gemini LLM, they reference wikipedia so I'll believe it The Metallica Blacklist album features a whopping 53 tracks ]
