- I love Elton John. I grew up with his music and to see Metallica perform one of his songs was so fun to watch. #eltonjohn #reaction #metallicareaction #metallica
They stripped it down and made it their own...Loved it!
James has sounded fantastic ever since the band emerged from Covid isolation. The time spent back in rehab and the time off from the road did him a world of good. And they've sounded especially good on the 72 Seasons tour. James definitely seemed to be having a blast playing this show, and the best part of it all was how much Elton & Bernie clearly loved it.
FYI...the song is titled 'Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding', and it's not from Elton's first album. It's from 'Goodbye Yellow Brick Road', his 8th album released (I'm counting the live album 11-17-70).
That being said, this cover is amazing. It's a long, complicated song, and other covers are mostly sub-par attempts to copy the original exactly. That Metallica made it their own is great. I'd suggest to anyone interested, listen to the original studio version. The song is such a fan favorite Elton almost always opens his concerts with it for a reason.
I also laughed and clapped when I saw this version on TV. I worked on the tv crew n was Lars’ closeup camera and wondered how it was going to turn out. I think it’s simply amazing.
You are lucky !! !! !
@@KingNothing2x4 I Icompletely agree! I’ve been doing this kind of work a long time and honestly this is one of the best things I’ve ever seen live.
wow, that's cool.
@@ReactionGenX i’ve been doing this kind of work for a long time and this is one of the best live performances I ever saw. The only other time I shot Metallica was when they performed on the concert for valor in 2012 or 14 I think as part of a three hour veteran show you used to be able to see the whole thing on TH-cam I was impressed with them then but this cover was just genius.
Metallica absolutely stole the show. Both Elton and Taupin both called them the best band in the world.
James looks so happy playing this!!
That really was quite something else. A lot of talent showing there to bring that off with such competence in the circumstances.
I will forever be astounded at how James got a hold of Lemmy's ashes!!
metallica is the best band ever, period!!!!!!!
110%
The fact that they bursted out their best instruments and played friggin awesome is mad respect for Sir Elton John. This was just fire good. GARAGE INC 2.0 maybe???? This was a masterpiece of a cover.
There's a clip out there of Metallica performing on the Howard Stern show where they were shown a clip of Elton John saying that their song "Nothing Else Matters" was probably the most perfect song ever written and recorded.
James actually started to tear up when they were told that. Obviously, the fact that James holds Elton John's opinion in high regard says it all.
Pure LEGENDS playing for a Legend 🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘
THE GOATS
Goodbye Yellow Brick Road isnt Elton John's first album. That would be Empty Sky in the UK and a self-titled release in the US. Goodbye Yellow Brick Road was his highest selling album and was his 7th studio album. The album helped launch him to superstardom.
James sings in this style on a bunch of songs on the Load and Reload albums.
Plus a lot on the new album ums of 72 seasons and hardwired to self destruct. Their last 2 albums are as good as their first 4.
Like a fine wine.
No doubt a great performance!
The best to ever do it 🤘
AWESOME VIDEO!🤘💀🤘SOUNDS LIKE A METALLICA SONG AND IT'S A ELTON JOHN SONG!🤘LOVE IT WHEN METALLICA DOES COVERS MAKE IT THEIR OWN!!!
I'm now a Metallica fan. I haven't heard or seen anything cooler since Santana did Soul Sacrifice at Woodstock. Played their asses off, INCREDIBLE!
I never heard Metallica until I started doing reactions, but I am totally hooked on this band. They are amazing.
@@ReactionGenXso many amazing albums to go through. Cool part of Metallica for me always has been the diversity in their albums. Maby skip ST anger thought 😂
Need to check out garage days.. metallica can do great covers
And garage Inc. Astronomy, sabara cadabera, and Ronnie's rising Medley
"Turn the Page" and "Loverman" are also great covers, imho.
Yeah! :)
Not Elton's first album, from Yellow Brick Rd
We are about the same age so I knew you would dig this.....
♥ I Just Liked and Subscribed!
Not for nothin but "huge Elton fan" and not know this was off Yellow Brick Road 🧐
Damn! Metallica jams to this song!
Great🎉
Why was telegraph omitted? Not complaining just want to know.
I guess because he wanted to update it a bit. Not many telegraph lines left that I know of.
not his first album........
Yes,😁 I have been corrected, but thank you.
Next….
You damn right they’re metallica. Their version is better than Elton John.
