This is Metallica's first video and it helped my mom and I connect more. It came out when I was in high school, listening to heavy stuff like this that my parents didn't get. But when I showed my mom the video, she remembered watching the movie when she was in high school. We sat and watched it while I told her the lyrics and she explained the movie. One of my better memories.

Orion was the Metallica song that got my mom to "ah ha" and she understood why I dug Metallica, she eventually started playing along on the piano.

Thats an incredible story, thank you for sharing. I had a similar experience with my mom, when we were in the car, and I asked her to listen to their Bob segar turn the page cover.

I definitely can relate to this video and song. There hasn't been a day I have not ended up back on that beach. I can smell the diesel fuel.

Metallica was arguably the biggest act on the heavier side of metal at the time. Maybe Maiden could match them but no other band outside of them. There were more hard rock acts that were bigger, like Van Halen, ACDC, Scorpions etc but nothing this heavier metal... And at that time Metallica was soo inaccesible they had quite a Mystique of them....

That is, he is completely alone, all by himself with no one to talk to or communicate with. All he has is his own thoughts to contend with. No body. No bodily functions. No friends or family.

I have always loved Metallica and this song, but now the connection means everything to me. The memories of my father that live in Metallica's music. Dad I love you and I miss you so much.

@@neilpatrickhairless Just like when others were glorifying alcohol and drugs, they were singing about the horrors of addiction. That's why their music hit so much harder.

[@NPC-fl3gq]

​@@neilpatrickhairless Glorification of violence!? That's an interpretation that most headbangers would probably disagree with. Most metal bands write their songs from a neutral point of view as though they're reciting historical facts, not opining from a certain political mindset.

There's a live performance of them performing this song on The Howard Stern show and James opens up about the lyrics, about his struggles with mental health during his teenage years which inspired the song. They found the movie for the video and intertwined them beautifully and even bought the copyright for the movie to make the video easier to show. Look up the Howard Stern clip and listen to James's story. Gives an entirely new perspective on the song.

I was 11 when this came out. It was the first thing that made me think about what it meant to be alive. There were a lot of 'heavy' bands active, heck this was Metallica's 4th album, but this was arguably the first metal song to cross over into the mainstream in such a huge way. There were a few videos that featured movie clips, but they were almost always from soundtracks, This is one of, if not the only, video that I've ever seen that interweaves movie clips in a narrative way. Easily one of the best videos ever.

From ThriceTheThird: @Requiem4aDr3Am Thank you for sharing what you are going through with us. I'm sorry that you are experiencing these hardships that are taking away from your quality of life, and making you feel like you are losing yourself. I can relate to this in my own ways, which probably are not identical but have similarities. I think that the fact that you are trapped in an ailed body, although it obviously is an awful experience. Can also be looked at in the sense that you are still you mentally. The person who you are on the inside still exists. I'm not sure what ways you can improve your quality of life physically, if there are any, but I think that acceptance and trying to work with what we have is sometimes the best we can do. Do you have any health professionals you can discuss what you are going through with, and perhaps they can have recommendations on how to improve your quality of life? I wish I knew answers to things like this to help people feel better, but even when there are no obvious answers. I will read what you have to say and reply if you ever need/want to share more.

I just want to let you know, that even though it may not feel like it, you are a strong person that has made it through a lot thus far. And I'd like to encourage you, that you can re-discover yourself throughout this time and find maybe a new you.

Nah Megadeth was heavier and better.

i heard "one" for the first time almost 30 years ago and it has such an imersive influence on me and my understanding of music. it is clearly a milestone!

[@paulhester2588]

Thank you for shining a light on this subject. If I may add, among as the things you mentioned, this young man was going through, a small part that I know very well, despite having so little of what this man must have gone through; is the “fear and terror”you feel when trapped in your own head. Thanks again! ❤

This song and Zombie by the Cranberries are songs I cannot hear (or watch the videos) without tears. I cry every time.

[@bigjoeisgood]

That song (album) still kicks up your ass... To everyone! Masterpiece...

My Uncle is 7yrs older than me. I was fortunate enough to have him as a music guide when I was young back in the 1980s.

[@protoclone138]

When this came out it was the darkest shit MTV would air and surprised they did. Making videos for songs on this level was uncommon. There were videos, but this is artistic in its vision.

[@fatimapalacios2292]

Metallica helped me through difficult times... their songs are pain relief for me

[@mysticrhythms3348]

Great reaction - Love August Burns Red!!

[@danielcarter305]

Johnny Got his gun is a bad ass movie. It will definitely give you nightmares!

[@cleancoder3838]

I can't watch this without teary eyes at the end...

[@NormanPenker-x3x]

Awesome Reaction 🤘🏻🔥🖤🔥🤘🏻

[@ozark_trapper]

I was young when this song came out. Living in the south. Everyone listened to Metallica. Metallica is on my playlist.

[@paulbradbury5792]

One of the greatest songs ever!! I listened to this for hours nonstop when I was kid

[@Tonetruk]

This song, along with the video, always conjures up strong emotions for me. What a horrible and hopeless situation to be in. Sometimes I when I am feeling a bit down or depressed, I try to remember that my own personal situation could be so much worse and that I must pick my head up and move down the road of life. Thanks for reacting to this song.

At 13 yrs old. A friend was killed in a car accident. One was played at his funeral. Took 20 yrs to beable to listen this song again.

[@garyfinden3137]

It was the nineties. Videos were a work of art and this one is a masterpiece!

[@szeleddie]

"It was heavy when this came out back then" No my friend this will ALWAYS will be the HEAVIEST MUSIC FROM ALL OF THE MUSIC!!! They are GODS OF MUSIC!!!

[@generaldecker9971]

Best song ever. So good that I will watch this again.

[@rayvanhorn1534]

This song brought metal to a front seat at the Grammys back then. Prior to this hard rock/metal did not get the respect it deserved. “One” changed that & the video made everyone stop in their tracks. It also brought much needed attention to wounded veterans & the necessity for both physical & mental health. A Metallica fan since high school in the 80s, such a library of iconic tunes. (Do you plan on doing any classic rock or 80s rock? Hope so, I’ll keep an eye out)

[@jeremyluster9821]

but for the grace of god there go I, how bad things can get and how fast they can get there, realize how blessed you are right now. this song has always helped me deal.

[@TankakaT13]

As a 10yr army vet, this song hits hard. So many of us feel this way. Trapped in the memories and pain. Wrapped in the guilt and shame. Constantly trying to find our way in a world we don't fit in. Begging for it to just stop until one day we just need to die. This is where we are every day.

[@80Toad]

Thank you for sharing. You deserve to live. I hope you find peace. I wish i could give that to you, I am sorry for the pain in your life.

[@HeartSupport]

From runner12: @TankakaT-- I’m so glad you reached out! I’m so sorry for the constant pain, guilt and shame you are feeling. Being trapped in memories can be overwhelming and exhausting. You may not feel like you fit into this world but I promise you that you have value and worth and purpose. Sharing your story and speaking out about what you’ve been through is so important and valuable especially to others who have been in similar situations. Please keep holding on and reaching out. This is a safe place where we care about you and believe in you and are here to support you!

[@HeartSupport]

From sangasugarbog: @TankakaT-- Thank you so much for reaching out, I want to let you know that you are heard, and your voice matters. I think in life, it's such a difficult thing to find where we fit in, or deal with the guilt and shame that we bear. It's a normal thing to feel the way that you do. While these emotions and feelings may linger, I promise that this storm will pass. Tripping over what's behind us can be a taxing expense, but we must continue to move forward, and grow. You matter here, and I want you to know that there are people that love you. The world is a better place with you in it. Enjoy the present, and focus on **now**. I'm rooting for you, keep shining your light.

[@HeartSupport]

From lu2910: @TankakaT-- I'm so sorry you're dealing with these emotions. I appreciate your vulnerability in opening up to us how you've been feeling. The fact that you have served in the army for ten years is amazing, I can't express how grateful I am that people like you have the bravery many of use do not. I promise you that despite how you feel you don't fit in, you belong on this Earth and deserve to live. One thing I have found in dealing with my depression is that as small and futile as it is, hope is beyond life-changing. You are not a broken person; You are far from broken. The future you have is not just surviving, but living. There is hope for you, this apathy will turn into joy and you will feel whole. You are not alone in your struggling and hurting. Peace is never something that is unattainable. Please feel comfortable to reach out and share your story with us. We are right here for you.

From Micro: @TankakaT-- Thank you so much for sharing about how this song resonates with you and your personal story. Trauma is a beast that keeps haunting you, and I can only imagine how painful it is for you to feel like you just don't fit in this world, and maybe somehow don't belong either. It's hard when it feels like there's an invisible barrier between your inner world and the world around you. Inside there's a storm taking place, a scream that needs to be heard, but on the outside it seems that silent remains, and your hurt is unnoticed. I hope you will keep fighting for yourself, for you absolutely belong and matter. May you find peace, at your very own pace, to replace traumas as a part of your story, and not as something that would define your identity. You have so much beauty to bring into this world, and there is more to embrace around you. Hold Fast, friend. You're in my thoughts. :heart:

[@tankerboysabot]

This is absolutely my most favorite song of all time!!!!

[@Moondirts]

This song and the video were both absolutely ground breaking.

[@andreamyers352]

I have been diagnosed with PSPD. I also love metal! Thanks for everything you do!

[@Bucky7140]

One is a classic! It is one of the best songs ever. No matter what genre you listen to

[@seminole17910]

One of the greatest metal songs of all-time! This song and the subject matter along with the video are so powerful. I remember when the used to play this on MTV. After the song, the VJ's would say something like "on a lighter note."
