"Carved upon my stone, my body lies, but still I roam" is such a bad ass lyric.
Also, I have heard this song a million times, but it never gets old, pure brilliance.
The best sentence ever!!!
Yea, when I heard it 30 years ago, I thought to have it put it on my tombstone. ... Although, not so much today ... because I have better things to put on my tombstone.
For dorks sure..
You from Ohio girl
To me this is the best song on The album.
I totally agree
Same
The whole album is killer.
Its either this, Sandman, Sad But True, Nothing Else Matters or The Unforgiven. But any song on the album is a good choice for best... except Struggle.
Couldn't agree more 🤘🤘
Such a powerful line... "The less I have, the more I gain."
This song speaks to me on a spiritual level, and makes me think about all of the things a person could learn by seeing the world for themselves.
the more i Eat the more i Gain.
100% , my fav line in the song. When you've got nothing you can only gain, cant lose anything.
Everyone sleeps on this song , it is an awesome song. I was in the Army ,just back from Desert Shield/Desert Storm ,when the album came out and you heard it played everywhere !
Dont let the haters fool you, this was Metallicas biggest album. It is fantastic from start to finish. Only thing Metallica sold out is stadiums to this day
It was the precise moment in history when metal became socially acceptable... mainstream and not just for edgelords in duffel coats. This is probably why it annoys the edge lords in duffel coats
One of the best albums ever. Every song is amazing
Ok Lars.😂
Nah, I’m kicking. You’re right. Haters. They turned off and missed tuning in.
Damn right not a bad song on that album
Master is the best Metallica album by far. But the Black album had the most commercial success. When the black album 1st came out, I wasn't to into it like their albums up to the black album. After awhile I grew to love it
I never thought it was a sell out album, it was mainly just different shorter songs and slower overall tempo but it has some bangers on there and great songs the whole album overall is pretty great 😄
I was in High school when this came out. Brings back such memories.
the first two CDs I ever bought were from a garage sale down the street from our russian neighbors. I spent my allowance and got the Black Album and ...And Justice For All and I fell in love with Metallica. Don't know what made me buy them but I'm glad I did. I was maybe 8 or 9 and they shaped my life with their music.
You’re right. This wasn’t a sellout. It was just a really great album that was a core Metallica sound with better production, shorter songs and slower tempos.
Top 5 Metallica song for me. The lyrics to this song push me so hard in the gym I feel like a beast 😂
"Not all who wander are lost." ~ J.R.R. Tolkien
I love this song from the "Black Album". I love the guitar riff and the solos. The lyrics are interesting from the point of view of the artists' feelings as they feel like "nomads" who travel far from home every year to work. Jason Newsted was very important in the concerts during this time, and his participation in the album was very notable.
The Black album is not a sellout album. It was where they were at during that time period. I saw them during this tour. No opening act. Just Metallica performing most of their entire discography. It was amazing! They played almost everything from Killem All to the Black Album. They had a special section called the snake pit. It was in the center and the stage surrounded it. Epic!
Fade to black was the song that helped me from dark days, and the black is a great album . It was the album that I discovered Metallica
This song was about touring and life on the road. They actually had the world record for the longest "tour" if you will. It was roughly 2yrs without going home.
Such a great song and imo very underrated on this album. This song still has meaning and purpose to me, but when it came out in my younger days, it was a song that really meant something to my very core. I'm glad your reacting to all the songs in their catalog, very cool Lilly! Happy Monday!
I'm watching this while on a 2200 mile road trip. Where ever I may roam, indeed.
@MegaAlan54321😂😂😂
Brilliant song from a fantastic album. And this is coming from an old school fan. Producer Bob Rock did a masterful job; the sound is impeccable.
And the fact you can desipher james, kirk, jason, and lars, is just fuckn awesome!!!!!
The songs that help me the most are the precisely the Black Album ones, because in my opinion they bring up the most common issues an average person experiences in their lifetime, like so far:
- Anxiety and fatefulness (Sad But True)
- Pride and arrogance (Holier Than Thou)
- Independence but Loneliness (Wherever I May Roam)
There are many more songs with equally important subjects in this album, there is even one you're definitely going to enjoy, since it straight up revolves around religion and I noticed you like these the most 😉
This has a cool middle east sounding intro. James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich wrote "Wherever I May Roam" about life on the road.
A lot of people hate on Metallica for the black album because it’s more accessible… it’s not thrash. They forget about the fact that it’s an all-time classic hard rock album.
They played this at an awards show. The host was speechless after and all stiffs in suits were like , WTF. Keep rakin' in the $$$ for us boys.
Hi from Australia, Adelaide. I've seen them live 4 times. Best show ever.
I have never really been in a "dark place" but I have always loved Metallica. I have watched as they have gone through changes and have listened to the babble of the neigh sayers who have called them sellouts and has beens. But the band is still there and doing fine. Going 40+ years now and still attracting new fans like yourself. They are an example of what perseverance and hard work can accomplish. I love all their work and although I only found them in the mid 90's when I was already in my 30's, I can't pass up an opportunity to hear them or watch someone like you react to them. ❤🤍💙
They filmed some of this video in the greater Cincinnati/Northern KY area, where I live.... The beer raising was at the CIncinnati COncert, plus the guitar shop in Covington
The first time l seen this band they was about your age. They opened for Iron Maiden. Now we are all aged and still rockin. It's wild how far they have come.
Happy for you! =) I can see the same sense of excitement in your eyes when I was a teen when I got to first watch the music video for this.
This is one of those ones. Fucking amazing. This album is a gem, some people just think that Metallica was a straight trash band and it has been been such. They just play heavy music.
Their music and his lyrics always have that feeling, the loneliness, self-deprecation, just realism, life.
2 weeks from today seeing them live two seperate nights in Detroit. Super happy. Havent seen them since 98'. A quarter century ago
didnt care for this album when it came out it definitely grew on me through the years
When ever I start my motorcycle this song enters my head :)
You are correct about more or less having to "have been there" to understand the "selling out" thing. And to be honest, it had way more to do with Metallica suddenly becoming popular than any change (slightly less frenetic and more professionally produced) of music style. Up through even the release of Puppets, thrash was still a relatively small sub genre of music. Gaining ground, sure, but still a bit obscure. Young teenagers (of which I was one when early Metallica hit) will anyways consider "their music" to mimic the obscurity they feel is their place in the world as they are growing up and trying to find their place and voice in society. I am sure that kids in the 50's felt the same about Elvis when he started making movies, as did early rap fans in the mid 80's when it became popular in the 90's.
Got my first taste of Metallica when they released the Ride the lightening album. I've seen them 3 times in concert and they always deliver a great show.
People who say that they are sellouts are ignorant to artist's musical growth in a crazy music biz where record companies dictate what gets played and who goes home.
I loved the bands response to if they were sellouts and they said yes they sell out every show every night lol
My Friend of Misery... The Best Song to me in this album.
And fade to black got me out of the hole in my adolescence

This is one of my favorite songs that doesn't really get a lot of attention compared some of their other songs. I still like master of puppets and a few other songs, but this one is in the top ten for sure.
The "sellout" crowd is when they went mainstream. Their "worst" album is St. Anger and it's easily my favorite one. It's raw and speaks to what I was going through when it dropped. Fade to Black is my hands down favorite song.
Were u hoppin' on junk? 😂You'd have to be fried to call 'St. Anger' a favorite... (and I'm a death metal fan! 💀)
There is 'raw' ... and then there is 'un-listenable'... and that was 'St. Anger' ('Lulu' was even worse)
Metallica works best when James and Lars are focused - they were NOT working properly... Even producer Bob Rock lamented that 'St. Anger' was a winning team that lost the game; it wasn't the product he was aiming for... And the thousands of copies that were sold off or returned proved that point... 'Death magnetic' was what 'St. Anger' should have been.
@@sumonjamal1653True. I don't even count "Lulu" as a Metallica album. That piece of garbage was Lou Reed's pile of sh..e. He wrote the music and the lyrics. Metallica was just his back up band fiddeling around here and there. I hope they'd finally recognise what they've done there.
One of my all-time favorites
I can't tell you how many times I've listened to this entire album, beginning to end! Sometimes just lying, staring @ the ceiling, sometimes reading a book, sometimes tearing up the roads. This album was like a "comfort zone" for me for quite a while.
I always loved this song !! years ago i had to travel alot between countries and stay away from home ... it's funny you feel those two vibes (you on the road to do your stuff it feels good the feeling of independence, but after a while you are alone and it stoped feeling that good, sometimes wondering if it was worth the money "the Less i Have the More i gain") amazing song !!! so perfect in the message and in music composition. Regarding the Black Album it's an album from an amazing band, never seen it as a sellout just as new approach to music... not better or worse just new music and enjoy it... When the album came out I was listening to extreme metal and it didn't shock me at all, that it was different, I really liked the music, you either like it or not, that's all.
Lily i been down since day one and your in for a treat here im high as a birds ass i hope you are too enjoying this!!!!!💯💯😁👍
New listeners like you 100% have the right mindset with Metallica, I grew up with them "I'm only 11 years younger than James Hetfield", for a lot of the older fans who only knew word of mouth who Metallica was until One got the first radio play ever , this album was everywhere and inescapable. I know people who claimed to be fans who won/t listen to anything post Cliff Burton. I know people who won't listen to anything from this record through today's 72 seasons . I also know people who honestly thought this was Metallica's debut record. for fans like me who have been listening since 83 this is well deserved success.Metallica strived for with every evolution of their sound and talents.
That album is great and it got them a wider fan base afterwards
Love your reaction!
The first rock song I heard when I was 4. Clearly remember this on mtv, asked my mom what is that while looking mesmerized at the TV she said metallica. Loved them ever since
Funny how you can relate to a song. In my 20s I worked in a sheep shearing crew and we traveled the state of Montana from job to job. Pretty much solid from mid February through the end of May. Hotel to hotel. Very nomadic and where I lay my head is home mentality.
A positive aproach to moving around and abandonnent issues! Love it!
"Fade to Black" helped me get through some tough times when I was a teenager.
Nope- diehard fan here and was fortunate to have seen them 3 times; they didn't sell-out. Bands change over time, some more than others. The band gels together more as the years go on and they tend to mellow out as well. Just because the album was insanely popular, doesn't mean they were sell-outs. Maybe it might be a little jealousy from some die-hards that no longer could claim it as their own "underground" band any more. It was, and still is one of their best albums. P.S. Lilly- you are wise beyond your years and have a ton of insight. I enjoy not only your excitement but your analysis as well.
Because your now a member of the metallica family thats what james calls us the metallica family.❤im from ohio
9 Years Old When I Saw them LIVE 🤘
They just had...30 years...totally crazy!!!
People are plain and simple haters. They hate anything that changes, it makes them uncomfortable, so they lash out against it. IMHO
It’s the best album ever … I remember a comment I read coming from Black Sabbath bassist (Gezzer Butler) is the only album he can hear from first track to last without skip any song … it’s perfect.
Fade to black still to this day gives me the chills... 48 years old...
Master somehow gives me an up beat ....
No leaf clover impressed me immensely.. oh crap that's also almost 25 years old..........
Basically I'm just admitting to myself I'm an old metal head..... with a 15yr old daughter who is finding her own way and I can only help her in her ways
I think you will like "Bleeding Me" when you eventually get to it. For some reason it is not among the popular songs to react to here, but the song itself has a great "build and release" to it.
Metalica has always been great... bands change overtime 😊
@tomjudge7920 I gotta admit I was the same when Rush released Moving Pictures. Stopped listening to them for over 30 yrs. Through reactionists I started to listen to them again from MP on. I was missing out on some great music.🥴🥴🥴
'For whom the bell tolls' was probably the song that helped me the most... I loved the aggression of the 'Ride the Lightning' album, but that song was about war... and I felt at the time that I was fighting for my life 😈
Roam is a fantastic song. I'm very happy hearing this on live in both their '92 and '93 performances in Holland... Was 17 and 18 back in the day....... 48 years today (seen em many times since)
This album was not a,sell out its just awesome!!!!!!
Every song from the black album is a banger. And it really throw them on the map world wide.
A love song to the road.. great lyrics and one of my favorite "newer" Metallica songs
This song is really about a drifter who never calls one place his or her home which really fits into Metallica's relentless touring in their past. Metallica played 300 shows over the course of 2 and a half years.
James, Kirk, and Lars were going through some tough times during the making of The Black Album.
The next album after the Black Album is probably Metallica's darkest album, at least with the lyrics. Songs like Bleeding Me, Outlaw Torn, Until It Sleeps, The house Jack Built and even the country ballad Mama Said deals with some of James most vulnerable lyrics
Definitely. Load is a very moody album. Reload as well. I guess darkness is subjective in a lot of ways, but I'd have to agree.
Metallica was the first and most successful Thrash metal band, and many of their early fans were fans of that specific genre. Metallica's evolution took them to a more commercially palatable area, though I think it can be argued Metallica moved the bar of what was considered commercially palatable several degrees heavier than what it had been. The black album was so successful Metallica became more of a band for everyone, instead of a gritty fringe band for "true believers". I personally love the self titled Metallica album, but Master of Puppets, Kill'em All, and Ride the Lightening are the albums that spoke to me, and gave me the music I was searching for, before I even knew something was missing.
Master of Puppets was my gateway song too. I was hooked.
The Black Album is a great album, but Metallica was so much more aggressive before this album that older fans didn't understand the change.
I waited till midnight August 12, 1991 and bought this album and was super disappointed, but it eventually grew on me.
Another epic reaction Can't wait for the next one
Beautiful reactions..thank U sweetheart..amazing person U R. :)
My fav Metallica's song, master piece.
Where I lay my head is Home!
I really enjoy your Metallica reactions. It's great rediscovering Metallica with a new fan. Reminds me when I was young and discovered Metallica. And like you, I was hooked and wanting more of their music. So, I went back to the beginning and worked my way up to their most recent album. Still love the band to this day🤘
I know I’m late to the party back I discovered Metallica during my teenage years during the mid to late nineties, and they helped me a lot through some dark times in my life. Anyway I love your reactions to their music reminds me of myself when I first listened to them.
outlaw torn or bleeding of me , while I'm always in a dark place I'm not alone here
The ultimate road song 💜
I was just hitting 9th grade when this album dropped and I loved it then and now. It's awesome from start to finish. I loved their first four albums and the song that helped me in Jr High was Escape (off Ride the Lightning) - "Life is for my own to live my own way". Keep up the good work Lilly!! ❤🤘
I was in the front row moshing to this in the pit in August in Arlington, TX. Pantera opened for them! 🤘
Metallica is what I got into heavy metal, and metal in general, so it’s fitting for me to watch all your Metallica video reactions. 👍
That is great that she heard all of their older material then the newest, 72 Season. Now she sees the additional ingredients put in to make their current modern sound. It seems to be a combination of all of their eras.
The reason for them shooting the video in Cincinnati was because it was the first city on the Black album tour. Also show them shooting footage for their Live S*#t Binge & Purge box set. I'm a vast bucket of Metallica knowledge.
Many songs from Load album helped me a lot back in the day... like Hero of the Day, Bleeding Me, Until it Sleeps, Outlaw Torn, Thorn Within, Wasting my hate and some
King nothing is also another great song alot of people miss out on!!! It's one of my personal favorites I've been a Metallica fan since my teens I'm 32 now
'Hero of the Day' was a song I found very inspirational and helped me out of a dark place.
I just love that you adore Metallica!
I saw the tour 7 times, in 3 countries
My fav Metallica song ,this video is take form the 1992 San Diego´ show, try it, to me the best concert by them!
This was recorded at the U of I Assembly Hall the night of my 21st birthday. NOPE.. don't remember much of that night, but I was there.
I SO enjoy your insights on these songs! Makes me look at these "old" songs in a whole new way. The "Black" album IS a solid album. What happens here is that these "Metal elitists", believe that the only GREAT bands, are bands NO ONE has heard of. Or, have not gone mainstream. So when Metallica's "Black" album blew them up. The elitists started crying "SELLOUTS"! And as usual, these elitists are WRONG. The only "sellouts" here, are the arenas that Metallica continue to perform for 'til this day. Anyway, rant over. AWESOME reaction, once again. Keep up the GREAT work!
🤘🤘🤘
SAD BUT TRUE on the Black Album is my Favorite when I was in my teens. 😊
Hi Lilly Jane. Did you know that the black album was certified more than 16 times platinum.
Great album. This one is my favorite track.
If you can't enjoy being alone then you're obviously in bad company.
Love you're reactions!
In fact, Kirks solo has three sections, two fast sections and one slowly in between. But yeah, it was an amazing solo, just on point 🤘🏼🎶
😂 I was around, I bought the tape the day it came out! No disappointment here! Metallica has held to their word on the song "Whiplash" they said, "We'll never stop, we'll never quit, because we're Metallica" the song that got me through was "Dyers Eve" I had it bad, but not quite that bad
This album I played until it melted lol my favorite masterpiece by them
Breaking down songs like it’s a science. While rocking out. Definitely an awesome TH-cam page I’m glad I subscribed
Fade to black was a song that pretty much saved my life as a teen. No one talked about suicide and I was thinking a lot about it and that song helped me through some dark times!
They sell out every place they play! "Jason Newstead" Going to see them in Seattle at the end of the month.
One of my all time favorite Tallica tracks!
