Metallica - The Memory Remains Top Of The Pops '97 (RARE & CUT)

Metallica perfoming The Memory Remains at The Top Of The Pops in 1997, its a bad quality foootage but its kind of rare.

I remember being well into Metallica and doing somersaults on my Mum and Dads sofa when I saw this on TOTP. Nowa days every time I hear this song if I'm at my mum and dads I do somersaults on their sofa

[@jaymz]

it sucks that its playback and james is actually singing and not an actual performance. but thats top of the pops for you

[@Maroonia77]

It wasnt playback

[@MrPerroLoco]

I don't think it's playback. I would rather say that only instruments and backing vocals would be recorded.

[@Maroonia77]

Its pitch shift vocal effect

[@jaymz]

@@MrPerroLoco Yes thats what im saying, the only thing thats actually live in this performance is his singing, which is a shame

So I know your comment was ages ago lol but I came here to watch this video coz today I met the man who was responsible for this recording and he was telling me the story.
This was before a show and they explained to the crowd what was going on and they played the song live but what we’re hearing is dubbed over the top and edited to sound a little bit live.
I don’t know the technicalities but that’s how I understood it.
