i think you will enjoy the moscow vid. after, for a flip-side experience, i highly recommend you check out a concert they did with the san francisco orchestra in 1999. any of those would be great, but if you still haven't heard 'master of puppets', then that would be the go-to. best wishes to you edit: th-cam.com/video/Tolj54hIY0s/w-d-xo.htmlsi=0ixeE7Htno9Ts6gt
Dude thank you so much for reviewing this. Absolute goal of mine to get you on the Metallica hype train. And they are still going strong! Keep em coming
EPIC EPIC WPIC. It was after the wall came down and folks that had been separated for many many years theh all got to listen to Metallica together. Epic
One was a song that really made me appreciate Metallica. I wasn’t a big fan of theirs generally speaking, but that song brought me in. ❤️ sandman was the other. I HAVE to listen in when they are on.
Metallica - Master of Puppets, Disposable Heroes, Blackened, Battery, Creeping Death, Ride the Lightning, Kill’em All, One, Dyer’s Eve. All great Metallica songs when Metallica was great!
I am so burned out when it comes to this song, as are a great number of fans that heard this song too many times. Getting to see you feel the energy of this song for the first time let me feel the excitement I felt when i first heard this in 1991. It has restored a bit of Enter Sandman for me. Thank You
@@dillonsronce2583their first masterpiece in my opinion. Seek and destroy and motorbreath are good but there are so many changes in the 4 horsemen and the rhythm/solo changeup is my fave on that album
The song is from the perspective of the sand man who, in fairy tales, is responsible for putting you to sleep and entering a dream state. The sandman has some horror connotations.
It always blows me away that people dont listen to the words and immediately realize that this is a lullaby. He is putting his child down for the night. It must've been great to be raised a heavy metal God.
I’m only 32 but my grandpa who passed when I was six would have been 105-110 now used to tell my mom and uncle that if they didn’t close their eyes and go to sleep then sandman will come get them. 😂
@lakewestchase my mom always told me that the sandman was who put the stuff in the corners of your eyes as you slept. She called cleaning the corners of your eyes in the morning, "getting rid of the sandman"
You make me appreciate songs that are old to me like they are the newest joy. This song is about nightmares and dreams of evil things, being afraid to go to bed because of the monsters that are near. The song "One" has the most messed up story behind it and the meaning of the words are screwed up hard. The movie it refers to, "Johnny Got His Gun", is a deeply twisted look at war and what the military industrial complex tries to do by selling lies to poor, dumb folk to get them to fight in countries they never heard of in the name of freedumb".
Regarding their status in the white hall of fame - 2 guys in the band are white - James Hatfield (vocals/guitar) and Lars Ulrich (drums) - but the other 2 are not - Kirk Hammett( lead guitar) is Filipino and Rob Trujillo (bass) is Mexican/Native American - although their bassist was a white guy when this song was recorded.
Omg this was fucking gold. You made me laugh so hard. There is something in you that reminds me of clowning with my twin brother when I introduced him to Metallica and Tool when we were in high school. Thank you for this!😂
Back in the day, this was the song played before we jumped out high altitude airplanes into pitch blackness and it ear wormed us all the way down. @1 year Vet
I saw Metallica live when I was like 14 years old me and my friends ditch school took the city bus downtown and seen Metallica and Ozzy Osbourne. Let me tell you that was an excellent show. Back then in it was like first come first serve we were one of the first people in there and was right up front in front of the stage. It was so loud I couldn’t hear for like a week afterwards.
As someone mentioned, check out Metallica performing live in Moscow in 1991. It's amazingly ridiculous how many people are there. Seriously. You won't believe it.
@@SonicProfessor_a.k.a._T._Andra tbf even if they didn’t die at the concert half of them would probably die within the next decade. Russia in the 90s was absurdly awful.
@@FrankieWilliams-kx9gp ...and still is. Yes. That is accurate.

First song I ever heard by Metallica was “ For whom the bell tolls”! It was so different from the other metal bands I was into. Thank god I had an older brother who got me into metal in the early 80s. He did drop the ball on Metallicas “ kill em all “album . I had to backtrack to that one after ride the lightening n then Master of puppets lol
4:52 if anything the only scary thing to them are the copyright stuff. they're the reason Napster is no longer a company, and funny enough, why their own concert on twitch was copyright claimed during a live performance.
You need to see the videos of Virginia Tech's football team coming out of the tunnel and onto the field to this song every home game. The stadium is lit😅!! 🔥🔥🔥
Yo, Virginia Tech Football teams enters the field to this song. Also, who wants to tell him how epic it was to play this song on Guitar Hero and Rock Band back in the days!?
Don't know how hard you want to go with this experiment, but... If you're up for some Death Metal.... Arch Enemy - Handshake with Hell This isn't even their best song, but it's a really good example of how she can go from the Death Metal growl to Clear Vox in a snap. She's incredible. And you know that guitar solo hits hard too. Though, I think Death Metal might be a bit of an acquired taste. Also, I just found your channel today and I think I watched the entire playlist in one sitting. I had it playing while I was working, but it was really a pleasure to see you getting into Rage against the Machine, Korn, Foo Fighters, etc... You also got me appreciating Billy Joel more than I ever did before, so thank you for that. Love your reactions. Thank you for all your hard work.
You better get a playlist started! You just opened a Pandora’s Box of BANGERS! The big name hits are all awesome too, but I LOVE some of the ‘B-side’ tracks that don’t get the same commercial love - No Leaf Clover (my personal absolute favorite), King Nothing, Seek & Destroy, Cyanide, Frantic, Shoot Me Again, Invisible Kid…. Their Saint Anger album (which has the last three songs I listed) got a LOT of hate, mostly because it was a bit of a departure from their earlier work, but it resonated with me as a teenager when it came out. Their newest release Lux Aeterna also has some incredible riffs - My two favorites from that have been the title track and Sleepwalk my life away. It was a HUGE cultural outrage when they cut their hair in the early 90s - they were the start of thrash metal, but were absolutely an essential part of the hair metal/headbanger scene. Didn’t change their musical prowess though.
This was Mariano Rivera's walk-up song. And for those who don't know, Mariano Rivera (born November 29, 1969) is a Panamanian-American former professional baseball pitcher who played 19 seasons in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the New York Yankees, from 1995 to 2013. Nicknamed "Mo"[1] and "Sandman",[2] he spent most of his career as a relief pitcher and served as the Yankees' closer for 17 seasons. A thirteen-time All-Star and five-time World Series champion, he is MLB's career leader in saves (652) and games finished (952). Rivera won five American League (AL) Rolaids Relief Man Awards and three Delivery Man of the Year Awards, and he finished in the top three in voting for the AL Cy Young Award four times. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame as part of its class of 2019 in his first year of eligibility, and is to date the only player ever to be elected unanimously by the Baseball Writers' Association of America (BBWAA).[3] Raised in the modest Panamanian fishing village of Puerto Caimito, Rivera was an amateur player until he was signed by the Yankees organization in 1990. He debuted in the major leagues in 1995 as a starting pitcher, before permanently converting to a relief pitcher late in his rookie year. After a breakthrough season in 1996 as a setup man, he became the Yankees' closer in 1997. In the following seasons, he established himself as one of baseball's top relievers, leading the major leagues in saves in 1999, 2001, and 2004. Rivera primarily threw a sharp-moving, mid-90s mile-per-hour cut fastball that frequently broke hitters' bats and earned a reputation as one of the league's toughest pitches to hit. With his presence at the end of games, signaled by his foreboding entrance song "Enter Sandman", Rivera was a key contributor to the Yankees' success in the late 1990s and early 2000s. An accomplished postseason performer, he was named the 1999 World Series Most Valuable Player (MVP) and the 2003 AL Championship Series MVP, and he holds several postseason records, including lowest earned run average (ERA) (0.70) and most saves (42). Rivera is regarded as one of the most dominant relievers in major league history. Pitching with a longevity and consistency uncommon to the closer role, he saved at least 25 games in 15 consecutive seasons and posted an ERA under 2.00 in 11 seasons, both of which are records. When he retired, his career 2.21 ERA and 1.00 WHIP were the lowest in the live-ball era among qualified pitchers. Fellow players credit him with popularizing the cut fastball across the major leagues. Along with his signature pitch, Rivera was known for his precise control, smooth pitching motion, and composure on the field. In 2013, the Yankees retired his uniform number 42; he was the last major league player to wear the number full-time, following its league-wide retirement in 1997 in honor of Jackie Robinson. In 2014, MLB named its AL Reliever of the Year Award in Rivera's honor. A devout Christian, he has been involved in charitable causes and the religious community through the Mariano Rivera Foundation. For his philanthropy, Rivera received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian award in the United States, in September 2019. - Credit Wikipedia.
If u ever saw the Yankees play ball on tv this was the theme song for their best relieving pitcher Mariano Rivera Metallica actually performed the song at the stadium
I won’t stop recommending Nine Inch Nails until it happens! their lyrics are incredible and their sound is super unique. I recommend “March of the Pigs”
Highly recommend Master of Puppets and Creeping Death from their 1991 concert in Moscow like other comments, but I will also recommend Fade to Black. Fade to Black will really open your eyes on what metal can sound like.
th-cam.com/video/-Zr_IcI3u60/w-d-xo.html - Moscow 1991 concert. Not a lot of crowd shots but there are a few close up ones. People are crammed in for sure.
I always crank this up while driving!! Windows and sunroof open, music blaring and a little old white-haired lady driving w shades on and banging!! Welcome to the Dark Side, Rob!
This is the entrance song for the great Mariano Rivera when he played fir the New York Yankees. Didnt even have to announce him. We heard this music and it was lights out for the opposi g team
Looked up and down the comments and didn't see this - this was actually their 4th album, not their first. The really sick part is that 3 of the 4 members (lead singer, lead guitarist and drummer) are still the same from the very beginning. They're on their 3rd bass guitar player - the first died in a tour bus accident on tour, the second (who played on this track) ended up leaving after a lot of drama, and they got Ozzy Osbourne's bass player for the 3rd who's recorded the last few albums with them.
Around that time the song was released, hip hop and alternative just exploded! Love that era of both genres. Awesome first half of the 90's. Such great fond memories of no worries and just being young and dumb. Ahh, to be young again..
Great reaction man! Subbed during the kdot and drake beef and just found this video. I love music. All genres! It's dope to see other people with diverse tastes. Metallica is 🔥🔥🔥
You should react to Moscow 1991. They stopped counting people after 1.6 million and the concert was totally free. They are the only band to have played on all 7 continents.
Godsmack was the band that made me grow up from an immature college kid to a real man going from rap/hip hop to all rock going forward for the next couple decades till now.
Master of Puppets is definitely their biggest banger, but if you watched Stranger Things you might have already heard it. One, Battery, Blackened, For Whom The Bell Tolls, The Unforgiven 1 and 2, all great choices. They also have an entire album from their live show with the San Fransisco Symphony Orchestra that goes fucking hard. Hope you get more in to it, love hearing people explore them more.
This reaction cracked me up. You'll have to react to 'Master of Puppets', 'One', 'Sad But True' and 'Nothing Else Matters'...there are soooooo many bangers by Metallica. The instrument playing is genius and the lyrics are deep. Welcome to the club!!
Its about cot death from an interview a few years ago with them. I listened to the lyrics afterwards and it broke me. Plus nothing else matters is top tier
@jrlikeshockey that would be because that is a lie. James Hetfields dad was an extremely abusive Christian Scientist. When James escaped, he wrote many songs about the abuse, including leper messiah and dyers eve. He never once returned to religion after going no contact with his parents.
It does say something about James that he sticks to Christianity pretty hard, given the incredible amounts of pain religion caused him when he was growing up.
I was just thinking today how it was surprising you haven't uploaded any Metallica yet. Glad you did. One is a good one to listen to next. It was what first got me into them when i was a kid.
I was twenty one, when this album came out. I had already been listening to Metallica since I was 16. Enter Sandman is just one of many songs by this band that will send goose bumps down your entire body. They have the knack and the sound and never cease to amaze with their music. Legendary.
Oh so many to choose from…”One”, “Don’t Tread on Me”, “Nothing Else Matters”, “The Memory Remains” are a few more to pull you in deeper… …and if you really want to treat yourself to a masterpiece, give “No Leaf Clover” a listen. ❤
Welcome to the Metallica fan club. I remember when I heard my 1st Metallica song, Battery. I was 10. I instantly sprouted a mullet, a jean jacket, a pack of cigs, and had a kid.

thats a whole other level!! like a beehive on fire lmao🤘
Second western band to play in Russia, they had an opener. (Heh!)
Ac/DC was the headliner, and it was a free festival to celebrate the end of the cold War. Relax.
One by Metallica ascends like no other.
It really does. It is gutwrenching

And a couple of album titles lol
Great banger, Damage Inc.
Gotta put Sanitarium and the entirety of Load/Reload lol
And just for fun FUEL
You were in my recomendations. I'm so glad I clicked!! I'm pushing 70, and my grandson introduced me to Metallica. Love it!

I'm not burned out, but this vid reminds me why I bought the Black Album the day it hit the stores all those years ago. Rock on!
Master of puppets, fade to black, for whom the bell tolls, one, sad but true, wherever I may roam.. all bangers plus many more
Four horsemen
Nothing else matters

Am I Evil?
The people who name off their radio songs aren't real fans. Those songs you listed are meh compared to their others.
The song is from the perspective of the sand man who, in fairy tales, is responsible for putting you to sleep and entering a dream state. The sandman has some horror connotations.
This song was originally about sudden infant death syndrome until James Hetfield was bullied into rewriting it into a twisted lullaby
I'm fairly sure that this song is about shooting up heroine.
@@igotnoname4557 That's Master of puppets
It always blows me away that people dont listen to the words and immediately realize that this is a lullaby. He is putting his child down for the night. It must've been great to be raised a heavy metal God.

I believe this song is about infant mortality. SIDS or what they used to call crib death…
@davidromero2870 I hadn't thought of that, but it makes sense.
Its a 300 year old children's poem... welcome to the party Pal.!!
Give Master of Puppets a go
Fr
Yeah, that should be the next metallica song!
Some bars to appreciate on top of the tune
Master of puppets is a must listening to Metallica. Early Metallica of the 80s.
Agreed 100%
Oh holy hell he’s gonna love Metallica 🔥🔥🔥
One, Master of Puppets, Leper Messiah, Disposable hero's, Shit will blow his mind.
As does everyone who pays attention ❤
FADE TO BLACK, ONE, MASTER OF PUPPETS. In that order you won’t regret it!!!
Hell yeah. Oh and, no one’s gonna talk about that badass Sagat statue in the back? That shit’s fire.
Look who’s headbanging now!!
I remember liking metallica casually... then I went to one of their concerts and it was one of the best I had ever been to. Incredible band

In 2014, MLB named its AL Reliever of the Year Award in Rivera's honor. A devout Christian, he has been involved in charitable causes and the religious community through the Mariano Rivera Foundation. For his philanthropy, Rivera received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian award in the United States, in September 2019. - Credit Wikipedia.
Bruhhhhh you're a trip lmao this is awesome🤘🤘 great idea
LOL this young black dude who mostly listens to RnB sits next to me at my job discovered this song about two weeks ago and he was raving about it too
If u ever saw the Yankees play ball on tv this was the theme song for their best relieving pitcher Mariano Rivera
Metallica actually performed the song at the stadium
😱 Metallica playing on a field that's not SF?? Blasphemy!! (Jk)
If you listen to "One" you absolutely have to watch the music video. It adds so much to the song and tells an amazing story
I won’t stop recommending Nine Inch Nails until it happens! their lyrics are incredible and their sound is super unique. I recommend “March of the Pigs”
Really dig your energy and enthusiasm! You got yourself a new subscriber!
Highly recommend Master of Puppets and Creeping Death from their 1991 concert in Moscow like other comments, but I will also recommend Fade to Black. Fade to Black will really open your eyes on what metal can sound like.
th-cam.com/video/-Zr_IcI3u60/w-d-xo.html - Moscow 1991 concert. Not a lot of crowd shots but there are a few close up ones. People are crammed in for sure.
I remember when they marketed this song by driving through New York on the back of a flatbed truck singing songs from this album. Legendary.
Check out "Nothing Else Matters." It doesn't sound like a love song, but if I remember correctly, it is.
Yep, it was a love song to the fans!
@@dux_bellorum I saw a documentary, or a video about it and it was a love song to a girl.
I always crank this up while driving!! Windows and sunroof open, music blaring and a little old white-haired lady driving w shades on and banging!!
Welcome to the Dark Side, Rob!
This is the entrance song for the great Mariano Rivera when he played fir the New York Yankees. Didnt even have to announce him. We heard this music and it was lights out for the opposi g team
Great reaction Mr Rob. You put a smile on a old man face. Rock On 🎸
You HAVE to see the live in Moscow performance of enter sandman. It’s mind blowing!!
Have never had so much fun watching a reaction video EVER Omg that evil laugh when the band lets loose 😂
Hahahaha thanks! 💪🏾
Hold on a minute! I must warn you brother: You NEVER pause during a guitar solo. Legends say that in some states you can even go to prison for that.
LMFAOOOO I have no choice - it's too hype. LOCK ME UP
@@HollywoodRobTV😂😂😂
Looked up and down the comments and didn't see this - this was actually their 4th album, not their first. The really sick part is that 3 of the 4 members (lead singer, lead guitarist and drummer) are still the same from the very beginning. They're on their 3rd bass guitar player - the first died in a tour bus accident on tour, the second (who played on this track) ended up leaving after a lot of drama, and they got Ozzy Osbourne's bass player for the 3rd who's recorded the last few albums with them.
OH BOY YOU DONE WENT AND DONE IT NOW. THIS RABBIT HOLE IS DEEEEP!
Around that time the song was released, hip hop and alternative just exploded! Love that era of both genres. Awesome first half of the 90's. Such great fond memories of no worries and just being young and dumb. Ahh, to be young again..
I need a Master Of Puppets and One reaction so bad
It’s always fun to see someone react to a song they’ve heard hundreds of times without actually realizing it.
And this one isn’t even their best song.
Give master of puppets, for whom the bell tolls, fade to black etc. a go
Or Disposable Heroes
lol... I'm not sure it's even in their top 50.
Loving the flow of content! Well done good sir. Well done.
We all want to see a video of you rolling with your homies blasting this song and having the time of your life.
Great reaction man! Subbed during the kdot and drake beef and just found this video. I love music. All genres! It's dope to see other people with diverse tastes. Metallica is 🔥🔥🔥
You should react to Moscow 1991. They stopped counting people after 1.6 million and the concert was totally free. They are the only band to have played on all 7 continents.
And they were not the headline band, it was AC/DC who,played first!
Godsmack was the band that made me grow up from an immature college kid to a real man going from rap/hip hop to all rock going forward for the next couple decades till now.
I wonder if youll ever get around to ACDC. Thunderstruck is guaranteed to make you wanna jump jump. Dont that shit make a ___ wanna jump jump?
Seconded for Thunderstruck. Some other deeper cuts that are super fun are: If You Want Blood, You've Got It, Riff Raff and Shake a Leg
For Those About to Rock!
Dudes we would air guitar the whole black album by Metallica. We eventually formed a band. Good times. This was way back around 94-2000
Master of Puppets has to be next!!!!
This song came out just as I started Basic Training in 1991. It got played a TON in the barracks.
Master of Puppets is definitely their biggest banger, but if you watched Stranger Things you might have already heard it. One, Battery, Blackened, For Whom The Bell Tolls, The Unforgiven 1 and 2, all great choices. They also have an entire album from their live show with the San Fransisco Symphony Orchestra that goes fucking hard. Hope you get more in to it, love hearing people explore them more.
S & M 1&2 are brilliant! I’m mad I just discovered them a couple years ago.
This reaction cracked me up. You'll have to react to 'Master of Puppets', 'One', 'Sad But True' and 'Nothing Else Matters'...there are soooooo many bangers by Metallica. The instrument playing is genius and the lyrics are deep. Welcome to the club!!
Who’s in the White Hall of Fame so far? Dimebag Darrell, Billy Joel, and Metallica?
What about Layne Staley? For grunge I mean.
America still sleeping on Cold Chisel.
Its about cot death from an interview a few years ago with them. I listened to the lyrics afterwards and it broke me. Plus nothing else matters is top tier
Try primal concrete sledge
That comment was epic “ this can’t be taught. It’s natural “ 👍
Metallica was a lowkey Christian band and nobody knew it. Ther singer was a Christian and wrote songs with some light/hidden Christian themes.
I didn’t know that
@jrlikeshockey that would be because that is a lie. James Hetfields dad was an extremely abusive Christian Scientist. When James escaped, he wrote many songs about the abuse, including leper messiah and dyers eve. He never once returned to religion after going no contact with his parents.
It does say something about James that he sticks to Christianity pretty hard, given the incredible amounts of pain religion caused him when he was growing up.
@@wyrmsign207 Fr I thought so
Similar to Scott Stapp who had a crazy abusive fundamentalist father.
Thank you for putting respect on their name 🤘🏻
One.
I was just thinking today how it was surprising you haven't uploaded any Metallica yet. Glad you did. One is a good one to listen to next. It was what first got me into them when i was a kid.
I’m a 73yo grandma and LOVE me some heavy metal. Great reaction Sonny ❤️😊
And another metallica fan is caught!!!! Thank you for giving them a chance!
This song still gives me chills. I was I think a junior or senior in HS when this came out.
I was twenty one, when this album came out. I had already been listening to Metallica since I was 16. Enter Sandman is just one of many songs by this band that will send goose bumps down your entire body. They have the knack and the sound and never cease to amaze with their music. Legendary.
Rob's got some good old-fashioned racism that is just way too funny. He's like black Archie bunker on cocaine
You should check out their album where they play with a symphony orchestra accompanying them. It elevates the music to a whole other level.
Saw them back in the 90's. The entire concert hall was vibrating
James Hatfield wrote this song about his first child and the danger of CIDS
DUDE!!! I EXPECT YOU IN THE PIT AT THE NEXT CONCERT NEAR YOU!!! ULTIMATE RESPECT!!!!!!!!!!!
It's an all-time classic. It's about the anxieties parents push on their kids.
The entrance of The Sandman to this song, at ECW One Night Stand, was legendary
It's always a delight to see someone experience the power of metal for the first time.
Phenomenal review. Best I have ever seen.
Oh so many to choose from…”One”, “Don’t Tread on Me”, “Nothing Else Matters”, “The Memory Remains” are a few more to pull you in deeper…
…and if you really want to treat yourself to a masterpiece, give “No Leaf Clover” a listen. ❤
My man, you were entertaining from jump! You got yourself a new subscriber! Well done, sir!
Welcome to the Metallica fan club. I remember when I heard my 1st Metallica song, Battery. I was 10. I instantly sprouted a mullet, a jean jacket, a pack of cigs, and had a kid.
