Since you liked this so much, I hope you'll give Unforgiven II and Unforgiven III a listen at some point. Theyre both quite good as well. Also I'm sure you'll try the Symphony & Metallica offerings at some point. No Leaf Clover would be a really good offering as it was specifically written with the orchestra in mind.
Hetfield's parents were Christian Scientists, this is his story, he had a miserable childhood. He's done a LOT of therapy since writing this, thankfully.
I love your review of this Amy! Your completely starting to get what metallica is all about...emotions,feelings,grit,aggression,light,dark...all rolled into one.ive been a metallica fan since the late 80s and iam so happy your exploring their music more!
Metallica is awesome at writing and composing beautiful melodies and harmonies while making them heavy-metal. It's not just fast drumming and distorted guitarr soundwall. I think this is what made them the absolute most loved metalband ever....
Your theory about the solo rings true to my soul. I've never thought about it like that in the 30 years I've loved this song. It elevates the song a poetic level higher and takes it an emotional level deeper. It's all the more tragic, seeing this quick glimpse of beautiful light wasted in a moment too late. I love it. Thank you for this.
I absolutely LOVE that you were so inspired as to play the harp along with this song. You integrated it so flawlessly, truly impressed. I mentioned Apocalyptica last video, you really should check them out. They are a string quartet that does heavy metal covers. Mostly Metallica.
With the Black album, Metallica angered many fans who thought they sold out because Pryor to this album Metallica received zero radio play,and upon it's release it got played on every rock station in the country.The album was a fairly stark shift in style and I think you would like most of this album.
@@Fang70 How so? Metal thrived in early 90's and it was actually the most expansive period in it's history. In NOLA you had the sludge metal scene with bands like IHATEGOD, Crowbar Soylent Green. In Sweden you had the Gothenburg Sound with bands like Dark Tranquility, At The Gates, Soil work In-flames. In Tampa Bay had the Death Metal scene. In Norway you had Black Metal and during the early 90's in that's when you really started to see crossover and fusion metal.
Glad you instantly loved this one, I think what amazes me watching reactions and comments to Metallica songs is how almost every one of their varied catalogue of songs has such a big fan base with people saying XYZ is their favourite. There's obviously a number of more famous Metallica pieces which are universally loved, but out of 100+ songs there just aren't many songs that alot of people don't like, which is more than impressive.
Hetfield’s second greatest song, after MOP. Edit: I’m referring specifically to the powerful, deeply personal lyrics. However, The Unforgiven is hands down James’s best vocal performance.
I am happy Amy that you found a Metallica song you really like (actually love; according to your own words😉). "The Unforgiven" is a great song and is also one of my favorite Metallica songs. Great observations throughout, particularly on Hetfield's voice, and on the guitar solo and how it represents his spirit soaring freely amidst the oppressiveness he feels. Also enjoyed your thoughts on the power of the drums. Great observation also on this piece expressing tenderness within the heaviness, which blend together beautifully. I loved your harp play along. It fits nicely under your fingers during the chorus. Great reaction!
This was a great reaction, Amy! I love this song, I love Metallica from 90s and I adore Rammstein. 🥰 And btw, you have just made me understand my obsession with vocals a little better. So, thank you, Amy! You are the best! 🖤
I've been watching you since the start and Metallica since 1984. This may be the most excited I have seen you for a metal piece. I have to say, it is an absolute delight to see your entire brain involved in this one. You noticed things that I have always known but you put them in a context I wasn't thinking of. This is now my favorite of your " reaction " videos so I hope you follow through with your idea of adding harp to the piece at some point. The Harp Twin ladies have covered this is my memory's correct but I doubt there are many more harp covers. Hundreds of other covers of this song have been made and I listen to them all with glee. It is somehow justifying to me to hear so many covers of something that I knew was great in 1991. In 1991, as a young man, I walked 3 miles to a record store at 4 AM so I could get in line to buy this album. I still have it, albeit scratched to the point of being useless. For teenaged/early 20s men of the time, this was a very relatable album. I could go on forever about my love for Metallica but you are slowly but surely figuring out why I liked it back then and why I like it even more now. Keep on rockin and THANK YOU and your team, for your great videos.
It touches on the pain that many of us carry around. (It doesn't ever leave entirely.) The "black album" was very popular when it came out even to non-Metallica fans. The metal fans had to make room at their concerts. Many long-time fans didn't like the softer approach at first.
The greatest thing about this song is that you can clearly hear all the notes/chords, even with the distortion...no frequencies cancel others out. This is the musical genius of Bob Rock. You can clearly and cleanly hear the Am Em Dsus4 D Am verse progression, and it's just so good. :)
I would say this track is probably the most easy on the ear track from Metallica for people who appreciate great music Metallica black album is a great way for tuning your ear so you can appreciate their discography. Thank you for the excellent review of this track ! ✌️
This was the 1st of a trio of songs. Each different in theme. I can't wait to see your analysis of Unforgiven 2 & 3. Combined they tell a great story. Individually awesome songs.
Never was much of a Metallica fan but this song holds a special place in my life. The first time I heard and saw this song was on a video jukebox at the AAFES at Sand Hill on ft Benning Ga when I was in basic training. It fit well with the overwhelming experience I was in and my life up to that point.
Never forget that many of Metallica's best/most popular songs, also have versions they performed with The San Francisco Symphony. Sometimes these are superior to the original, The Day That Never Comes for example from the S&M2 performance. The first S&M concert featured some incredible arrangements for some of Cliff's songs, like The Thing That Should Not Be and Call of Kthulu. They did not perform this song at either concert, but they did play one of the sequels to this track on S&M 2, The Unforgiven III. All the arrangements for the first concert, as well as the additional symphony parts, were written by Michael Kamen. He also conducted. You'd probably know him best as the guy who dropped the cool "string" arpeggio part into Comfortably Numb and absolutely transformed the song. He also arranged orchestra parts for almost all the Pink Floyd albums.. post Atom Hear Mother. 🤘🧙♂🤘
One thing I this is important to know about the bands progression this album really divided their core fans. Most fans came around to it later on, but it was a real shock at the time..When I heard it in 91' I remember looking at my friend and laughing when I heard the lyric "whoaoo whoa"
James has always worked on his vocals. They have made every album as a different sound from their others from vocals to instrumentation. Each album has its own sound. Metallica and Pantera are really their own genres. They're rule breakers.
You explain things so well and vocalize elements in these songs that I may not have even considered, being a fan, or was there in the back of my head but had not verbalized in my mind. This is a fun channel but also one where I learn. BTW, its not all agreement all the time, but I understand what you mean and sometimes I have changed my mind, like Megadeth (though still think theyre great overall) but sometimes I keep my point of view, like the Sex Pistols.
My personal favorite Metallica song. The introduction, with the interaction between the different guitars and the different guitar tones is fascinating, and the idea of an old man looking back on his life saying, "I wasted my life trying to fit into your mold and now I can't forgive you" is quite poignant.
Hetfields voice is very adaptable and underappreciated in music especially when you look at the riffs he can be playing at the same time as singing the way he does
The soaring solo expresses the sweet release from torment offered by death. Distortion creates complex harmonics that enables a single guitar to emulate the timbre of an orchestra combining multiple pieces of strings, brass, and reeds. I think the sound you were trying to express might be called smooth, creamy distortion. The sound in the beginning that you liken to a cello is a guitar emulating a horn, via distortion. In fact, the ads for the first fuzz box promised the ability to produce the sound of a horn from an electric guitar.
Great analysis, this is one of my favorites songs of metallica, others song with the same vibe is "Nothing Else Matters", "No Leaf Clover" and in general the trilogy of "The Unforgiven", there are too other songs really interesting in Load Album and Reload Album
This Metallica album stands out due to its blend of heaviness and softness, appealing to fans seeking radio-friendly yet intense music. Recommended tracks include 'Nothing Else Matters', 'The God That Failed', and 'My Friend of Misery'.
Metallica has a lot of esoteric lyrics and this song has captured the message they want to deliver perfectly with the music.Hetfield's voice is an integral part of the whole thing, although he considers himself as singing like a boatman, lol, but in fact he's a natural talent in what he does. Huge respect to Papa Het. \m/ Got to do Give It Up by ZZ Top! Edit: What Hetfield does with his voice in this chorus, reminds me of Don't Talk To Strangers by Dio
This was the song, the whole album really, that marked the end of classic Metallica and it's switch to mainstream radio-friendly format. The fans mourned and the black cover of the album seems oddly appropriate.
You would really like Metallica - S&M with San Francisco Symphony Orchestra. Concert recorded in 1999 that was a LOT BETTER than most people were expecting 😁😁
Dear Amy, when you uttered the words "clear distortion" I knew one thing: your journey to "the dark side" is complete. That's a very fine distinction!!!
From newest Metallica era I think you can to try songs like: Inamorata - long epic progressive piece, mid tempo. Spit out the bone - dynamic fast tempo aggressive and melodic masterpiece. The day that never comes - power ballad with soft start very powerful ending. Nightmare long - heavy, fast and aggressive, galloping thrash song. Moth into flame - dynamic and interesting heavy and playful at the same time. Screaming Suicide - straightforward metal, heavy topic and heavy dynamic riffs. This is in my opinion the best Metallica was able to offer in last 15 years, last 3 albums where not as good as classic stuff, but there still a lot great music.
The story is they decided the justice for all was a bit more complicated than necessary and they tried to make their production more accessible, more song than a "composition"
LoveBites, Japanese all female band. You need to pls do a reaction and you will honestly get flooded with their Fans. That band is truly special though. Do a live one, Holy War, slightly older but it's a fantastic start to their journey 🤘
Unforgiven a classic. Different for them. Makes it great. Next: Fade to black. Orion.Get on it. And by the way, I have a degree in philosophy, a JD, and am an entrepreneur, but you make me feel like a little frog. You're genius makes mine feel insignificant. 😂
That opening is like something straight out of a Sergio Leone Western. It's a shame that this song didn't end up on the soundtrack for the Clint Eastwood movie of the same name that came out a year after this.
Rammstein vs Metallica hmmm… I consider both to be “Artists and great bands. I’d have to say Rammstein are probably a bit more artistic but both have made a huge impact in the music industry. 😊. I don’t know if you’ve heard Apocalyptica? They are a cello quartet who cover a lot of Metallica and other popular music. I would suggest their cover of Rammstein’s “Seemann” featuring Nina Hagen (born in East Germany and an Icon in Germany period). As with one of your other Rammstein reactions, it definitely wouldn’t hurt to react with the official video. ❤😊
Now that you've had a taste of the wide spectrum of Metallica I think for your next piece by them you need to go back to the beginning and do something off the first album like maybe hit the lights. I would be curious what you hear in that early work that hints of the genius to come given how raw it is by comparison
If you're curious about a heavy metal band - all female - who are also classically trained musicians, you can watch Swan Song (with Chopin Intro) th-cam.com/video/dcMVtrvpJpk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=qqjCGEX2XwmeSqQH and Dystopia Symphony th-cam.com/video/M83rfRFYxxQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=w1c51EK3zbHXLI2A by LOVEBITES.
A harp rendition could be good with the right singer and approach. Which makes me think, review of some covers could be neat. For example, Megadeth's Tornado of Souls and the Simona Soddu rendition and the Tina S rendition. It's worth looking at how others have made famous songs their own.

"The clarity and distinctiveness of each instrument".
Take a bow, Bob Rock.
This may be the best produced metal album of all time.
Never thought I’d ever see Elizabeth jamming with Metallica!
at the beginning it was pure Morricone
When did he invent ami chord? You're sick.
Especially since every concert, Metallica is introduced to “ecstasy of gold” by Morricone.
Absolutely
Since you liked this so much, I hope you'll give Unforgiven II and Unforgiven III a listen at some point. Theyre both quite good as well.
Also I'm sure you'll try the Symphony & Metallica offerings at some point. No Leaf Clover would be a really good offering as it was specifically written with the orchestra in mind.
2 and 3 are horrible, this one has aged like milk. Now 2 and 3 don’t allow me to like this one.
No Leaf Clover is a good call ... it's the only one I really like because as you said it's written specifically for the orchestra.
@juanfelipemv Agree on III ... woof ... II isn't nearly as good as I, but I still kinda like it
WHEREVER

ROAM
When a piece of music inspires you to pick up your instrument immediately and play. Truly a joyful reaction.
Hetfield's parents were Christian Scientists, this is his story, he had a miserable childhood. He's done a LOT of therapy since writing this, thankfully.
That, and also “The God that Failed” from the same album.
@@StryderK And "The Cure" off the next album....He had a tough upbringing for sure.
Lyrically James underrated.

This song still gives me goosebumps after all these years. One of my favorite guitar solos of all time.

Ironic that their "selling out" was what kept them relevant through the Grunge era. Almost no other heavy metal band from the 80's could say that.
I didn’t hate the Black album or felt they were selling out , it’s what they put out next that hurt me.

I think I like unforgiven II the best.
I have to agree. MOP is so well put together, but this track show so much emotion from a deep level. It's really hard to compare the two.
@@marysweeney7370 I'm quite fond of all 3 tbh
You're absolutely wrong... Every single song on Lulu is James and Metallicas best EVER!!!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

I truly think you'll love this song, a deeper, darker and softer side of Metallica. Enjoy it, looking forward to your reaction.
This is my favourite Metallica's song!
I’m excited!! I think you’ll love it.
Beautifully orchestrated.
You just explained perfectly why Metallica and Rammstein are among my favorite bands.
Fade to Black, plz! - one of the best of their earlier stuff... Very dark and "depressive", even suicidal, but still - love it!
This was the 1st of a trio of songs. Each different in theme. I can't wait to see your analysis of Unforgiven 2 & 3. Combined they tell a great story. Individually awesome songs.

I want more. The "Black and White" off the air, before and after the video footage. This woman is fascinating.

One of my favourite solos by Kirk, hands down.
Yes, the voice is the ultimate instrument. The power of the electric guitar is its ability to emulate the voice, in the hands of a skilled player.
❤ I just loved watching you play along with the harp😊❤❤
The way you defined the solo is just so insightful and poignant. Inspired.
One thing we can ALL agree on is that more Metallica is definitely better, more better!!! 😁
great channel. keep up the great work!
James has always worked on his vocals. They have made every album as a different sound from their others from vocals to instrumentation. Each album has its own sound. Metallica and Pantera are really their own genres. They're rule breakers.
I'm not really a Metallica fan but this song keeps me coming back to them.

I absolutely see, and I have always seen, the similarity between some Metallica songs and some Rammstein songs, Amy listen to Mutter by Rammstein!
Welcome Home sanitarium you will love it
This Metallica album stands out due to its blend of heaviness and softness, appealing to fans seeking radio-friendly yet intense music. Recommended tracks include 'Nothing Else Matters', 'The God That Failed', and 'My Friend of Misery'.
Metallica has a lot of esoteric lyrics and this song has captured the message they want to deliver perfectly with the music.Hetfield's voice is an integral part of the whole thing, although he considers himself as singing like a boatman, lol, but in fact he's a natural talent in what he does. Huge respect to Papa Het. \m/
Got to do Give It Up by ZZ Top!
Edit: What Hetfield does with his voice in this chorus, reminds me of Don't Talk To Strangers by Dio
Definitely one of Kirk’s best solos.
This was the song, the whole album really, that marked the end of classic Metallica and it's switch to mainstream radio-friendly format. The fans mourned and the black cover of the album seems oddly appropriate.
You HAVE to do the S&M album. Its a masterpiece. Metallica plus a full symphony.
You would really like Metallica - S&M with San Francisco Symphony Orchestra. Concert recorded in 1999 that was a LOT BETTER than most people were expecting 😁😁
You will love Mama! It’s Metallica does country and western, but with more bite.
Dear Amy, when you uttered the words "clear distortion" I knew one thing: your journey to "the dark side" is complete. That's a very fine distinction!!!
From newest Metallica era I think you can to try songs like:
Inamorata - long epic progressive piece, mid tempo.
Spit out the bone - dynamic fast tempo aggressive and melodic masterpiece.
The day that never comes - power ballad with soft start very powerful ending.
Nightmare long - heavy, fast and aggressive, galloping thrash song.

Screaming Suicide - straightforward metal, heavy topic and heavy dynamic riffs.
This is in my opinion the best Metallica was able to offer in last 15 years, last 3 albums where not as good as classic stuff, but there still a lot great music.
DEEP PURPLE "BURN" PLEASE!
The story is they decided the justice for all was a bit more complicated than necessary and they tried to make their production more accessible, more song than a "composition"
LoveBites, Japanese all female band. You need to pls do a reaction and you will honestly get flooded with their Fans. That band is truly special though. Do a live one, Holy War, slightly older but it's a fantastic start to their journey 🤘
That's an odd comparison. I would have said closer to Scorpions sound. And that intro - pure spaghetti western - have a cigar Sr Morricone.
Wait till you hear how The Unforgiven III builds up. One of the best intros to a song ever, and my favorite of the trilogy.
I like Unforgiven III best 😉
The harp is actually perfect for a cover of this song. The Harp Twins have already done it.
What about Skunk Anansie?
Unforgiven a classic. Different for them. Makes it great.
Next: Fade to black. Orion.Get on it.
And by the way, I have a degree in philosophy, a JD, and am an entrepreneur, but you make me feel like a little frog. You're genius makes mine feel insignificant. 😂
You have unforgiven 2 and 3. You not done yet.
That opening is like something straight out of a Sergio Leone Western. It's a shame that this song didn't end up on the soundtrack for the Clint Eastwood movie of the same name that came out a year after this.
To be fair, that theme is pretty great, too.
For James Hetfield, this is autobiographical.
Am I the only one who thought she could start weeping?
Although I prefer the first three albums, this is where I (and probably many others) started my Metallica journey.
Queensryche. Operation: Mindcrime They toured together a lot in early days. Was awesome.
My first concert ever. Peoria, IL 1989.
They toured together for one part of the "justice" tour. Though their music is quite different.
Rammstein vs Metallica hmmm…
I consider both to be “Artists and great bands. I’d have to say Rammstein are probably a bit more artistic but both have made a huge impact in the music industry. 😊. I don’t know if you’ve heard Apocalyptica? They are a cello quartet who cover a lot of Metallica and other popular music. I would suggest their cover of Rammstein’s “Seemann” featuring Nina Hagen (born in East Germany and an Icon in Germany period). As with one of your other Rammstein reactions, it definitely wouldn’t hurt to react with the official video. ❤😊
They stole that beginning from Ennio Morricone. The Ecstasy of Gold.
When did he invent ami chord? You're sick.
They didn't steal anything. They're influenced by Morricone. That's a big difference.
Poetic since every Metallica concert, they’re introduced to Muricone’s Ecstasy of Gold.
Ah the good ol' reverse power ballad
Now that you've had a taste of the wide spectrum of Metallica I think for your next piece by them you need to go back to the beginning and do something off the first album like maybe hit the lights. I would be curious what you hear in that early work that hints of the genius to come given how raw it is by comparison
Please listen to No Leaf clover...from S&M or S&M2 concert both versions are great
Veo que te gusta el lado mas melódico de Metallica,estoy seguro de que disfrutarias la canción "fade to black" mi balada favorita de ellos.
One could argue that Pink Floyd shares the same qualities.
If you're curious about a heavy metal band - all female - who are also classically trained musicians, you can watch Swan Song (with Chopin Intro) th-cam.com/video/dcMVtrvpJpk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=qqjCGEX2XwmeSqQH and
Dystopia Symphony th-cam.com/video/M83rfRFYxxQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=w1c51EK3zbHXLI2A by LOVEBITES.
You should listen to unforgiven 3
Now I'm curious about how James voice would fit with the angelic harp. Just the two of them.
A harp rendition could be good with the right singer and approach. Which makes me think, review of some covers could be neat. For example, Megadeth's Tornado of Souls and the Simona Soddu rendition and the Tina S rendition. It's worth looking at how others have made famous songs their own.
I'm curious about the different colored strings on the harp. Is it just for a visual reference or is there some other reason?
