They stopped counting the crowd at 1.6 million, it was epic.
If you were in the back you were in another city. 😆
I heard the people closest to the stage are still there. To this day the traffic jam of cars and people are gridlocked.
Unofficial numbers suggest upwards of 2 million people.
Sure, why not? Let's say 2 millions. Next time I will read it will be five millions. They are still coming now 😂😂😂
folktale
An historical moment. Walls were falling and jean sales were way up. An entire society and generation getting their first taste of pure western rock and roll face-melting energy. The raw electric positivity in that air could have powered the entire Earth for a year. Radness.
Came here to say this. Also, props on your name.
This was the most free the Russian people ever were during the brief period between the collapse of the USSR and the rise of Putin. There was so much hope of a free and open relationship with Europe and the West.
“Radness”. Dating yourself there and it’s awesome. 😜
There were hundreds of fights thousands of rapes eleven deaths and Metallica didn't know any of it until much later.
Then Putin destroyed it all and is trying to rebuild the Soviet Union.
1.6 million people were in attendance. The band walked out and performed their tales off showing no fear of the crowd. Great legendary moment.🥰
false
@@roverwaters3875 look it up
@@gracemichelli.2am124 "According to various sources (the exact figure cannot be given, because the entrance was free), on Saturday, from 300 to 400 thousand people visited the airfield in Tushino. They did not reach the Guinness Book of Records (while the record for attendance of the free Jean-Michel Jarre show in 1989 in Paris, which was attended by 1 million 300 thousand spectators, is held), but maybe this is for the best." Moskovsky Komsomolets" 01.10.1991
James himself said it was 500 thousand when they played. The total of people for the whole concert was 1.6 by the end of the concert.
no exact figure can be found. the count is above 1.6 million. thats where they pretty much stopped counting.
When James Hetfield (lead singer),was asked how it felt to perform in front of that sea of humanity he replied it was like stepping out of a swimming pool straight into a wall of electricity. This performance was at the Moscow Music Peace Festival. Metallica and numerous other bands were the 1st to ever play their rock and metal in concert in Russia.
That's amazing! I haven't seen this video in years and I've had goosebumps since they started the song!
This was Monsters of Rock.
The MMPF was in 1989, 2 years prior to this, and was Doc McGhee's way of getting out of drug charges.
@@eq1373 You are correct.I apologise for the mistake
That wall of electricity was just the cheap soviet wiring.
This was one of (if not the first time - 1991) they (Americans) were allowed to play in Russia.. This is Monsters of Rock Festival in Moscow. These 1.6 million fans are from all over in the first free open air concert.
This was the second. The first was the Moscow Music Peace Festival where Bon Jovi, Mötley Crüe, Ozzy Osbourne, Scorpions, Cinderella, Skid Row and Gorky Park played to 200,000 people. But this one had a much bigger crowd, estmates ran between 600,000 to 1,000,000!
Oh how the times have changed. 🤦
The first time Americans and hard rock acts from other countries played in Russia was the Moscow Music Peace Festival. That was 1989 and the song Wind of Change by The Scorpions was written about this festival. A lot of people assume Wind of Change was written about the fall of the Berlin wall but it was about the fall of the USSR.
Supposedly like over 50 people died in this concert or this festival
@@OregonSilverStacker 54, apparently. But considering the metal head crowd, the iron fisted authorities, and the crowd's and authority's lack of respect for each other, ONLY 54 dying is impressive. Russian authorities would have normally locked this crowd up for what they were wearing (American jeans and concert tee shirts) and listening to (American music.)
Yes!!!! Lars Ulrich is the drummer. THE UNFORGIVEN, WHEREVER I MAY ROAM and NOTHING ELSE MATTERS are all soooo good too! ❤️
Yes to all of these!
Nothing Else Matters would melt Amber into a puddle of goo.
Omg Amber will LOVE Nothing Else Matters!
i lost some respect for lars when he sued napster in 2001. it's a shame but its whatever.
@@laughingbad I never had respect for Lars because he is one of the worst drummers in rock.
What makes this specific concert truly special and in fact, historic, is that this was performed as the Soviet Union was collapsing. They were some of the first American Artists to perform in the Soviet Union, which is why there was 1.5 million people in attendance. This was their first taste of freedom and expression.
Not even close, motley crue, bon jovi, ozzy ,skid row along with the scorpions did a show there before this happened
The US is collapsing under the President!!
AC/DC, not an American band, headlined this concert in 1991.
This concert was the greatest ever . 1.6 million fans watching Metallica, AC/DC, The Black Crowes and Pantera . They didnt call it the Monsters Of Rock concert for nothing . My first introduction to Metallica was this song . Then i went through their past songs and found their greatest one Master Of Puppets . That song is absolutely seamless in its transitions.
As tired as I am of this song, this live version is my absolute favorite. I love the crowd, I love the energy, I love how they sounded. This whole concert (Black Crows, Pantera, Metallica and AC/DC) was history in the making. Monsters of Moscow will never be repeated.
same!
Neva!!!! Today people would be fighting.
I can't even imagine what it would be like to be part of a crowd that big. How did any the people near the front even survive?? I suppose that's the wrong question since people died and so many were injured.
Did the band ever comment on how they felt about that particular concert's consequences and the lack of crowd control?
I remember in the '90s there was an outcry against mosh pits. A lot of women were grateful for large men who helped them out, but more often had horrifying stories.
@@jackiegoodspeed1849 Not so much at rock and metal concerts. I've been to plenty (including Metallica 5 times), and none of the fans fight. The only thing that makes me sad about this concert is how the Russian soldiers treated the crowd because they didn't understand what they were doing in the mosh pits. Tragic that almost 60 people died and countless others were beaten with batons at their hands.
Funny thing about this song is that you think you never want to hear it again. And then you do and you remember how great it is. And the cycle repeats….
My wife and I are in our late 50s and we embrace it because we got to live through the BEST decades of music while in our youth. So far nothing this century comes close to the talent we had.
58 here and agree 100 % i saw metallica in 1998 best concert ever .
Amen!
I'm with you.
We got the tail end of the psychedelic 60's, thats when Rock started to become more experimental and interesting. ☮️
Then came the iconic 70's, the very best decade for rock imo. 🎸🎹
In the carefree 80's we got power metal, NuWave, NWOBHM, and hair bands. 🤘
When the glitter and spandex got out hand, 90's grunge brought it back to reality. 🎸
From there it's been downward spiral of disposable auto tune pop garbage. 🤮
I'm sure many will disagree, but that's how I see it.
@@roadshow69 After grunge, it was all auto-tuned, push-buttoned, over-produced, software-generated trash.
This is why vinyl has made a resurgence.
@@jimeiden2360
It's hard to take any current music serious, it's annoying enough to put me in a bad mood.
This is the type of song where, no matter how mild-mannered you are, you may literally throw your own dog through a wall just out of sheer excitement lol
Ok. I don't recommend this. my dog DID NOT go through the wall.
If you want to see how truly talented Metallica is. I recommend their album S&M. Metallica and the San Francisco symphony. They are absolutely amazing.!
No Leaf Clover off the S&M album just takes you to another place! Solid album through and through!
I consider the S&M album a greatest hits album. It definitely doesn't disappoint.
This album got me in trouble. Innocent 23 year old me didn’t know what s&m was. I worked in a cd store. My customer was looking for Metallica. I was like oh yeah the s&m one. He was like what? I said yeah Symphony and Metallica. My supervisor told him, “she really doesn’t know.” It was years before I understood what had happened.
This is always my go to recommendation for new Metallica fans. So their true talent can be showcased and appreciated.
Agreed. I was not much of a Metallica fan until I heard the S&M album. It takes their music to a whole other level.
I've seen this Metallica video many times, and the size and energy of that crowd in Moscow in 1991 still amazes me and makes me smile. Sad that things have changed for the worse in that part of the world.
Very very sad. And ours.
Yes; just like Vietnam, Cambodja, Korea, Iraq, Syria, Libia, Afghanistan, Jemen, Somalia.
And it seemed so promising after the wall came down in Berlin!!
Maybe once Putin finally Exits Light and some freedom and justice is restored, maybe Metallica can go back and have an even bigger show!! We can but hope.
They are victims to the Master of Puppets, just like the rest of us.
I’m 54, the first time my son had this playing I instantly fell in love with Metallica! I was in highschool in the 80s and have been to a lot of 80s hair band concerts! My son seen Metallica in concert but it’s still on my bucket list!!
This concert created epic history. A veritable sea of people. Just imagine the energy back and forth between the band and that many people. I imagine it was a feeling one would never, ever forget.
Amber's Sandman is the one from the Chordettes, a female harmony group from the fifties. "Mr Sandman, bring me a dream, make him the cutest I've ever seen..."
I thought it was the Andrew's Sisters
@@ChanelStuff No, it was the Chordettes. There are a couple of videos on You Tube claiming to be the Andrews Sisters but they are actually the Chordettes singing. There is one legit video of them singing a live cover of it at a tribute show, but they are much older then, maybe in their late 50's or early 60's. They never released a recording of it, though it wouldn't surprise me if someone found a video of them covering it when they worked on the Lawrence Welk show in the same era. It was a very popular song and they did cover lots of popular songs that they never released as a recording on that show.
And the grit by our eyes when we wake is ‘sand’
@@ChanelStuff You know, that is a good assumption! I think because of the harmonies and all female group it is stylistically in their wheelhouse? The Andrews started singing in the late 30's and last charted in 1950--I had to look that up--you had me guessing my memory! Mr Sandman was written in 1954 and the Chordettes took it to #1. There is an Andrews Sisters tribute group on CZcams singing this song but I didn't watch it to see if they misattribute it or just lumped it in because it fits the genre.
Legends say that people are still coming home from this concert. lol
Softie Amber would definitely like Metallica's "Nothing Else Matters". Elton John praised it as a one of the best songs ever written.
Nothing Else Matters is definitely my favorite from Metallica!!!
Highly suggest Master of Puppets it is a masterpiece you won’t be disappointed
@@mikegrenawalt2820 Eddie Munsen would agree 💯
+1 for Nothing Else Matters
Nothing else matters is my favorite song of all time. They will enjoy it.
This song was the entrance music for the greatest closer of all time New York Yankees legend Mariano Rivera. When Enter Sandman hit in Yankee Stadium it meant game over for the opposing team. Fun fact, during Mariano's final all-star game appearance Metallica played Sandman live as he jogged out from the bullpen to the pitchers mound. No song is more synonymous with a sports figure than Enter Sandman with Mariano Rivera
Amen to that , brother!
@@kevinsmith4429 Need to check out this song as the entrance music for Virginia Tech Football
@@joerostowsky9987 Did it! Good f'ing stuff.
he was Not the first reliever to use this song. Billy Wagner was.
enter sandman, exit loser!!!
No doubt others will have already explained why this was a genuinely historic moment and the size of the crowd.
Truly EPIC.
This is light years beyond epic
This was the first major metal concert (Monsters of Rock) in the former Soviet Union after the fall of the Berlin wall. These people had been waiting decades for this!
at this point the world seemed to be coming together - what the hell happened?
@@naldoron1 the deep state uniparty warmongers happened
Master of Puppets- Metallica. Epic classic heavy banger that is one of the greatest songs of all time. Amazing musicianship and time for you guys to react to it!
YES! It would be very timely for you to do Master of Puppets soon, since it was heavily featured in Stranger Things this summer and everyone is talking about it. It might get you a lot views and new people if you hit that one soon and ride the wave.
💯 should be the next song with lyrics
Agreed, "Master of Puppets" is huge right now! Would be a really fun reaction with that guitar solo!
Must do this song with lyrics!!
Seattle ‘89 for the win!
The piece of music played at the beginning is called The Ecstasy of Gold and anyone who has ever seen Metallica in concert knows they used this piece of music to open all their shows because they felt it built the anticipation up to fever pitch then BAM here comes Metallica!
I've been a Metallica fan for a while. What I appreciate is that they truly respect their fans and work hard to do a show that is for the fans.
I am 65 and just found this song a few months ago. It has become my all time favorite song. I play it every few days. Heard some other songs from them ,big love this song more.
Saw them in concert in Calgary. Instead of floor seating, the whole centre ice was a raised stage so they could walk around and play at people front to back. Nobody had a bad seat. The muscles at the back of my neck burned sooo bad the next day! 😆
Sounds freaking amazing!!!!
Incidentally, I believe there are people that are still walking home from that concert
LOL
Seeing Miss Amber headbang is probably one of the most adorable things I've ever seen!!
My name is Mikael, I am the wife of Adam whom is the person of this page, My son Dustin, passed away when he was 17 and was very fortunate see his favorite band before he passed. I as his mother started introducing him to Metallica when he was just before a year old, I'm 56. They have been a part of my family for over 30 years, I love them and I truly love the both of you.
I have always liked the crowd shots of this concert. The soldiers you see were supposed to be crowd control but if you watch as the song goes on they get more into it until they are dancing with out their shirts on. I don’t know if anyone else has mentioned this but Metallica holds a Guinness World Record at least up to 2017 cuz they are the only band to do a live concert on all seven of the continents.
And since they were up 1st at that concert they hold the record as the 1st band to play in the USSR.
7 continents? Isn't it 6, America, Africa, Europe, Asia, Oceania (Australia and islands), and Antarctica
@@ericomarquesfernandes3646 It's usually considered 7: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, and Antarctica.
They had a concert in Antarctica?
@@snukastyle North America and South America is just one: America.
Saw Metallica live in 2017.. Best concert I’ve been to…. What a band!!!!!
1998 here lol . sydney entertainment centre , fuel tour .
saw them in 1986 the damage inc tour still have the shirt
Detroit Mi
First time seeing them was in 1992 in Detroit with Faith No More and GnR. 🤘
I've only seen them once, on the Black album tour in Nov 1991. Amazing show!
@@NaturalMystic69 Honestly as far as marketing goes they released that album perfect at that time alternative was blowing up it fit right in commercially..
They were never the same after cliff died plus lars was a dick and kurt started pushing politics cliffem all 4ever
Their music is no head banging. They are true artists and legends. So going strong after 40 years! Their music rocks this world!
Metallica has soooo many great songs. I love how James is just cool as a cucumber at the beginning, Standing there playing and looking out in the crowd knowing that what is happening at that moment is absolutely Historical, Epic and may never been topped....EVER!!! Great reaction fellow Oklahomans.
I was 17 when this album dropped... it was a hell of a time to be a live....
I will say this and others alive at the time might remember... This was the black album... which now is considered one of the best rock albums ever made but when it came out.... die hard fans scream they sold out to MTV.....
At the same time... they grew mega HUGE... this was the album that kicked in the doors to main stream... this took them from 2000 a people shows to 20000 over night.
They were huge before but it was only hard core metal fans... after... who isn't an fan... not many...
this was also a hell of a time to be alive for the fall of USSR... feel reel odd saying that now... since it looks like they want to reform... be glad so far we don't have to live like that anymore... hell we had nuke drills in schools till 91... just like fire/earthquake but for nuke war... I am not that old... born in 74... but sadly people didn't read enough history books and here we are again...
In 91 the youth civilians saved the democrat gov from a coup... as a reward they got this concert... first concert with western acts... they wanted these guys and acdc, pantera, etc..
I hope the youth form a coup and get rid of putin... you don't want a cold war... no leader is worth that...
B.T.W: This was the album where James, really, first, worked-on his singing (or, rather: worked on his singing, FOR!).
He became a better vocalist, here (and after. ...sang more melody (& delivered better Prior, yes:he DID, but he, really, started-out and often gravitated towards: "growling/screaming" and so forth (moreso than "typical rock 'n' roll vocals."); earlier on.). he did, always have a bit of a melodic bent to his vocalizing, as: the band (and particularly he) were influenced by the NWoBHM (which was, very-much, melodically-based (not "hardcore-punk"-style.). This is one of the reasons I, think, that I liked what they were doing, when I first heard it. ..."Extreme ...but not TOO extreme" (for me, personally).
...just saying....
Wel. It was a sellout.... not to MTV but for money. This album brought in millions of non metal fans to them, but alienated the fans that got them to that point... I don't think anyone would say it's a bad album. It just was not a metallica album at that time. Simplified riffs, overall slower tempo songs. It's a far cry from disposable heroes, ride the lightning and the 4 horsemen...... mind you, their subsequent albums, load, reload, garage days, etc, made the black album seem like a much better album..... this is strictly my own opinion. It happens to be shared by a lot of other people..... I could say I stopped listening to metallica after this album, but it was actually load where I washed my hands of them.
@@mikemclaughlin3306 Their latest album, Hardwired to Self-Destruct, from about four or five years ago (pandemic makes it hard to tell time for me) was really good stuff. At least half of it is on par with the heavier music from the Black Album. And there were some hints of what they were doing before their money making sell-out. Yes, I agree it was a sell-out, but I liked what they were doing both before the sell-out and after, so... there was just more for me to enjoy. I'm not gonna turn away good music just because it's something different than what they did before. Good is good. Like yourself, I also had given them a miss for a while, but for me, I stayed on through Re-load and then quit. Re-Load was just part two of Load, and it was pretty decent, but bogged down by filler songs. Should have made one great album out of the two - Load and Re-Load trimmed down into one. Would have had a much bigger reaction almost like the Black Album was received. For me, after Re-Load, the music didn't seem worth the time until Hardwired came out, and they seemed to have their mojo again finally.
FROM 1991
@@mikemclaughlin3306 Stop this whole alienated the fans that got them there bs. I'm so tired of this narrative. Good bands evolve. Black album was a solid if not good album just like justice for all which I've also seen hate for. Load, reload I can agree but this whole black album is bad cause sellout is such a stupid tired take.
There are some songs that are just iconic because they go far beyond the music. The ECW wrestler Sandman entered the ring to this song, Mariano Rivera came out of the bullpen to this. Such a great song!
Originally is the Virginia tech hokies
MO!!!!!!!!
And it played through the whole match sometimes! It’s a good thing he didn’t take on New Jack, because whose theme song would they have played all the way through? “Enter Sandman” or “Natural Born Killaz” by Ice Cube and Dr. Dre. LOL
Va Tech entering to this song is considered the greatest college football entrance.
@@tarynkirchen5961, that would've been epic!!!
Watching their reactions, the Moscow crowd reactions, reactions at every sporting event ever... this song fires crowds up more than any other in the history of music.
It is Virginia Tech that uses this as their pre-game walkout song and I highly recommend looking up a video and checking it out if you haven't seen it. It isn't 1.6 million Russians but 50k students and fans jumping up and down and singing is really fun.
It shows up on seismographs since they are sensitive machines and there's not really a whole lot that goes on in rural Virginia.
Notre Dame beat them anyway and the Pope approved. He’s not afraid of this Sandman fellow.
Lars! The amazing part is you are STILL able to feel the power of Metallica live. Idk where you guys live but they still KILL a live show. Imagine after witnessing this song live and you barely have time to catch your breath when they rip into another epic masterpiece that will get your heart pumping AGAIN. Now imagine 120 minutes of THAT.
I was there on rr it was epic my man
James Hatfield (singer)
Kirk Hammett (lead guitar)
Jason Newstead (bass guitar)
Lars Ulrich (drums)
Metallica is and always will be the #1 Metal band ever!!!! Fade to black is my fave Metallica song!!!!!
No offense to Jason but I’ll always say that Cliff Burton was the bassist of Metallica. That man just can’t be matched. It’s I high bar to hold Jason and Robbie too, so I don’t, but Cliff always has to get a mention for me
@@branthemuffin5872 oh believe me, I agree 1000% but in this video it’s Jason otherwise I would’ve said Cliff Burton RIP
One of the best concerts I’ve ever been too, can’t believe how lucky I was to be there, just leaving the carpark now.
I absolutely love this song ❤ and i seriously love the energy!!! This is my favorite song by them.
Seeing Amber rock out to this is awesome! Their live footage is awesome even if the sound quality isn’t always good. Hit some more studio versions. “Master of Puppets” is a standard for reactors and is a powerful song. The first album “Kill ‘em All” is HARD! “Anesthesia: Pulling Teeth” and “Whiplash” should be played together and would be an awesome next choice as well.
Took my 15 & 16yr olds to see Metallica play live in Seoul Korea. Baby Metal opened for them, and put in one heck of an opening. Metallica ROCKED the house.
-Baby Metal would be a unique Female Friday.
-Greatly enjoy the channel and great vibes from Tejas...
Road to Resistance live in Tokyo!
@@derekwolfe5323 How about Babymetal's "Rondo Nightmare" for great instruments or Babymetal at the start with"Doki Doki Morning." They are my favorite group, and I would love to see anything they've done here. A perfect group for female Fridays with the youngest act to sell-out Wembly Stadium.
I saw them live when this great album came out in the early 90's, and you are correct about the drums hitting you in the chest. I was in the front row, and I felt every bass kick as if someone was standing there patting me on the chest. Great concert. No opening act. Just about 3 hours of Metallica. And for this song (the one they opened the show I attended with), wait until you hear the album version. Then you'll really appreciate it a lot more than this live version. Actually being able to hear everything clearly. Studio versions should be first - then a great live version after you already know the song. It's just science.
Very nice reaction I was I right there with you! Feeling that awesomeness to the bone 😁❤️
Seeing them in concert live is something you will never forget. Love these guys
I've seen them 5 times starting in 1988 and nost recently in 2017. They've been awesome everytime, but the best show for me was in 1992 in Oakland, CA on their tour with Guns n Roses. It was after James's pyro accident up in Toronto and James hadn't been playing guitar. At our show, he did the whole concert with no guitar, but for the Enter Sandman encore, he strapped it on and we all went CRAZY!!! Best concert I've been to.
I've been seeing them live since 86 RIP Cliff
@@that1dragonkid Hell yeah I remember that concert Body Count opened for them here in San Diego and the place was full of SDPD and James got on guitar and played Sandman place exploded
@@ramonllica We were blown away by Metallica! After their set, it took nearly 2 hours for GnR to take the stage. Fans in the infield got restless and started tearing up the turf and destroyed the pitcher's mound! I remember seeing very large pieces of grass being tossed in the air. It was crazy. Then, they finally came out and (in my opinion) sucked!
@@that1dragonkid We got Metallica to come out before GnR I think they took turns so Axl wouldn't get mad lol but yeah Metallica was on fire they were the well oiled machine at that point GnR couldn't keep imo with them.
One of the few songs that when my mom was in her seventies at the time would tell me to crank it up loud!!!🎶🎵
I am 63yrs old and not a huge Metallica fan but I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SONG. head bang to it every time I hear it. Also love the historical background of this performance.
You all are so great , going crazy on this one frickinn love it 🔥 🔥 ✌️✌️🙂
Thanks! Really love all the Hair Band Music
“Harvester or Sorrow” same 1991 Moscow show. Also “Disposable Heros” live Mexico City. Honestly, there’s dozens to choose from. We are all here for it. 🤟
I like the studio version of this song more than the live version
The question is really how much more live could this be? Of course, the answer is none. None more live.
@@commentatron I love your Spinal Tap reference. 🤘🤘
I agree, when it comes to "reacting" to a song for the first time it should be based on the Studio Version. If you want to follow up later with a live interpretation, cool. But do the Studio Version first as it was intended to be heard.
I loved y'alls open knowing full well that Jaydon knew the story made me smile!
I love almost all Genres of music and have been to sooooo many concerts and to this day...Metallica is still THEEEEE best show I have EVER seen!!
I feel like you guys missed the lyrics in the “slowed down” part. It’s not just slowed down-it’s ominous. The child saying the Bedtime Prayer leading into James’s menacing delivery:
“Hush little baby, don’t say a word,
and never mind that noise you heard.
It’s just the beast under your bed, in your closet…in your head.”
Best part of the song, IMO.
*Correction: not the “Lord’s Prayer”. Thank you Darrin.
A little correction. . . The Lord's Prayer begins
Our father, who art in heaven
Hallowed be thy name.
I learned that other prayer as a child to keep me safe while I sleep.. Just saying.
Yes y’all finally did it!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥
I gotta say, probably one i or f the best reactions yet. Good input. Yeah, it’s a pounding song, Dang!
This never gets old to me! It's an incredible live performance. METALLICA has rocked my world for over 35 years...plus!! They are the Masters!
You guys should check out some of their S&M stuff where they play with a full symphony. That whole concert is great.
Agreed. Opening (Extacy of Gold/Good, bad & ugly into Call of Kutulu into Master of Puppets without a break) is excellent, but for me One is taken to a whole new level with the Orchestra giving as good as they get. For whom the bell tolls & Wherever I may roam too, but the list goes on...
This was the riff that Mariano Rivera of the Yankees, one of the greatest closers of all time, would come out to. Exit light. Enter night. In other words, lights out! And I'm a red sox fan... but still much respect for the greatest.
Red Sox fan as well and no doubt, Mariano was the Greatest. ⚾
Yes,give Mo his due respect!⚾️🎶
I’m biased, but as a lifelong Padres fan, Trevor Hoffman’s entry to Hell’s Bells is better than Rivera’s Sandman.
I forget who the announcer was at the time, but once Mo came out and they played the riff and he said, "Enter Sandman. He puts you to sleep." It was great.
Not "one of..". He was the GOAT. Period. And best intro music for a pitcher ever. 😁😎
As a Yankees fan I can’t get enough of this song. That they played it live at Yankee stadium for Mo was awesome.
You two have great energy. Stay good!
OMG!!! My favorite Metallica song!!!!
Mine as well!! ❤️🎶
Amber, your version of the Sandman story is the same one I was told!
You guys are so likable! You always make me smile when I read your comments! God bless you and your family!
Seen them in Perth Western Australia in 1992,I was 16 was the best live show I’ve seen too this day…Ears were ringing for 2 days and sore neck for a week,front mosh pit.Had wall to wall posters as a kid loved them still do.So you reactions are priceless to me❤️❤️
This performance was historical. There was over a quarter of a million Russians at the concert. This was a live performance in Moscow.
So many people knew this would be a one time performance, once in a lifetime chance to see Metallica. And they all came from all over Russia.
There were fences in the middle of the crowd. But so many people showed up they knocked them down.
The entire stage was surrounded, the crowd in front was just a portion of the people.
It was literally an ocean of people rocking out to Metallica.
There has never been a turn out like this before or since, this was the biggest performance ever.
Now you should listen to Harvester of Sorrow.
It's begining starts with a very familiar chant of, 'All we owe, We owe her' , from the 1950s movie Wizard of Oz.
It the chant that the wicked witch of the East's soldiers chant as they are going into the castle.
Love this reply! Just FYI Wizard of Oz came out in 1939, believe it or not!
They now need to listen to Gorky Park - Bang
there were 1.6 million people there. Before this the soviet union had dictatorial control of every aspect of their lives. When the USSR fell, russians finally got a taste of metallica and several other great bands. But I'm not sure where you got the 250,000 number because it was over 6 times that many 👍
Virginia Tech's football team enters the stadium to Enter Sandman and all the people in the stands start jumping up and down. One of the best entrances. It has registered on Richter scales.
Mariano Rivera used it for years as well for the Yankees
Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.
AMERICA!!!! The band, the concert, the song, the crowd and the context. Truly a legendary video and I love how James is the ultimate Rock God in that surreal moment in history.
This wasn't in the USA hun...
@@theintern7472 oh I know, it was in Russia on an air force base I believe. Monsters of Rock 1991? May have been the first time the crowd was able to see this type of show after the falling of the Berlin wall a couple of years prior. I get goosebumps every time I see the crowd and their faces. 100% pure American Heavy Metal turned up to 11.
@@derekhudson3523 Sorry, My bad lol
35 years later and I still get goose bumps when I listen to this song! Greatness never dies 🤟🏻
The crowd is just jaw dropping. Metallica has as many hits all.most as many fans. They are so strong, back in the day they collectively cut all their hair off. It was a bit of a media thing. But many said they had sold out. They came.back with one of their best albums and tours. Their stage presents is just scary.Thanks for this smile.
As a guitarist I struggle to sing while playing. Couldn’t imagine being James Hetfield singing and playing, let alone the rest of the crew up there performing this live. Craziest atmosphere I’ve seen
Saw Metallica at the Astrodome with Guns N Roses and Faith No More back in the early 90s. Still a vivid memory. The crowd, the energy, the sheer awesomeness of the music was something to experience.
✌️🤠
Amber's innocent vision of the Sandman was the norm for decades before Metallica. Listen to "Mr. Sandman" by the Chordettes. It was a huge hit in the 50's and one of the best examples of the tight and complex harmonies popular back then.
I came here to suggest this! The song couldn't be more opposite to this in almost every way, but is just so good!
>>>It was a huge hit in the 50's
@@kaybee4143 I'm not aware of any Bill Haley recording of the song. There were a couple other artists who covered it, but the big hit that was all over the radio was by the Chordettes.
Or just read (or watch, now) Neil Gaiman's Sandman.
another vision for ' the sandman' ; gangsta-slang for the person who puts one asleep permanently , slang for ' hired killer' ....
Lead singer-James Hetfield, Lead guitarist-Kirk Hammett Formerly positioned by Dave Mustaine who left to pursue Megadeath, Drummer-Lars Ulrich, Bass guitar-Jason Newstead in this video...Original Bassist-Cliff Burton who tragically passed away, current bassist-Robert Trujillo who joined from Ozzy Osborne.
Metallica is an extremely powerful band. Their music is very orchestrated, they convey emotional value very accurately with their instrumental, and nearly all of their songs lyrics posses deep context telling a story...Personally I think all their songs are quite amazing, and though many aren't too keen on it, they are quite versatile. Metallica has been through a lot together as a band, and has been pounding out amazing music since the 1980's and are still very prominent today. They have one of the largest fan bases. It's hard to say which song to recommend, but there is no wrong choice...My personal Favorite is "Fade to Black"
Mustaine was kicked out of the band when they were in New Jersey recording their first demo tape with a small record label...Dave is a complete POS when he's drunk, and he was drunk all the time back then, so he forcefully was made to pack his crap and gtfo....
Actually Dave Mustane was fired by the band for his heavy drug and alcohol abuse. Which is ironic coming from a band that was widely known as Alcoholica
@@timcook6566 true he was fired, but I did watch something where the band admitted that they have no bad blood with him, that it was more for hype than anything.
@@timcook6566 You're right about Mustaine, however, it worked out good for him since he formed Megadeth and created his own way to heavy metal godhood.
Mustaine was thrown out of the band
I've been watching ur reactions. There's a reason why they are the best band in the world goosebumps everytime
Hi Jay, Amber, love seeing you both rocking with Metallica's LIVE concert, Moscow. The crowd is unbelievable...Peace🤙☝️😌
I remember watching them live one of the bast bands ever.
Went to the concert during the Black tour. Fire! 🔥
I first heard this song when I worked security at a club that had a niteclub and also a live music bar. One band at that time played this and their guitarist could play it too perfection. I looked forward to it every night they were on.
Kirk Hammett is tearin up the guitar. Powerful vocals, Thunderous drums, and heavy thumpin bass! Metallica delivers every time!!🤘🤘😛😛
this was my jam 30 yrs ago. I'm so glad the next generations realizes how amazing Metallica really is. You guys are awesome for looking back on history and rekindling great music for your generation.
The crowd was from their concert in Russia. I think they was first band American act to play in Russia after Berlin wall fell.
The story telling, the music, the energy - gotta love Metallica
I've been a Metallica fan since the early 80s. I still weep for Cliff Burton. My favorite songs of theirs are Creeping Death, Breadfan and Blitzkrieg, just to name a few. I'm 54 years old and they are still my favorite band. Love you guys!
I have been lucky enough to see many of the greatest bands live being a teen in the late 60’s early seventies. Going to see them live in 91 with the Mash Pit and all was electric. Keep rocking these bands and thanks. ✌️❤️
I'm so glad how excited you guys are about Metallica!!... My favorite band of all time!! 🤘 Definitely check out more of them!... You'll go down a long, heavy ,kick-ass journey!!... Enjoy and don't forget to "Bang Your Head!! 🤘😝🤘
INCREDIBLE LIVE! The energy and volume is killer. The fans make it a unifying moment that west & east can come together. Music can do that. The talent of Metallica is unquestionable.
I love your passion for all music. Imagine this live, it was amazing! This is my childhood folks, I really miss all that great music.
And decades later they are still rocking stadiums and arenas! I've been to 10 Metallica concerts in my days (and will be adding another if they ever announce any dates for LA in the future) and everytime they put on a masterful performance. These guys are the show of shows! This video in particular is quite amazing. Not just because of the overall energy, but what this festival meant during that time with everything that had transpired. Pure awesomeness!
Sofi Stadium was KILLER!!!
Watch the official video it tells the story of sandman that goes with the lyrics. Arguably the best hard rock song in my opinion!
Metallica is my all time favorite band. They got me through some tough times. It sounds cliche, but it doesn't make it less true. HIGHLY recommend "Orion" from Master of Puppets, great instrumental. And for flat out speed, try "Whiplash" from Kill em All. "Sad but True" from The Black Album is super heavy, or "The Thing That Should Not Be" from Puppets as well...im so glad you guys are loving this. Sidenote, "The Good the Bad and the Ugly" is played before every show they do. The drummer is Lars Ulrich, and believe it or not he's the least talented member of the band lol.
Wow! Yesterday I heard you do Bing Crosby-White Christmas, today this!!!!! I'm so impressed. You guys are the best! You've done so much and the great thing is, you've only scratched the surface. Keep going.
Geez, AC/DC concert I headbanged the whole time! I couldn't turn my neck for 3days!! I have hair past my rear! When the concert was over, a guy tapped my shoulders & told me I owed him a drink. He held his cup & my hair whipping around like that was splashing the beer out of his cup! lol I said I'm not buying you a drink! My bff & I went across to Applebees & they found us & bought our drinks all night!! Best concert EVER! I seen Metallica too, back when Jason Newstead used to play bass for Metallica. We hung with him & the group. Jason only lived two cities from us. It was like surreal after they got famous!!
Probably my favorite Metallica song. I cannot help turning this wide open when riding down the road and it comes on the radio. The audio in the studio version is much better but this live has to be seen for the shear audience there. Don't recall if you did it already but their song "The Unforgiven" is also really good.
Love seeing Amber Head banging...You Go Girl....You could not have picked a better video of this song to do. Yes it is Va Tech entrance song. It was also, though it pains me to do so as a Mets fan, Yankee Mariano Rivera's entrance song too. Undoubtedly the GOAT Closer. Thanks for the smile
I can tell you from many experiences that it is definitely money well spent seeing these guys live bro you will not regret it. If you get the chance to be sure to get yourself tix next time they roll through your neck of the woods!
Trondheim . Norway . Me and my two boys . Metallica. Time of our lives. We from Sweden 😊
Hell yeah

My boys loved these guys and I got to like them. They came home from their concert and the next day their necks hurt so bad from head banging to the tunes! Very talented guys!
My husband and grown kids went a few years ago in Portland, OR.. I got them on the floor with VIP passes.. They absolutely loved it!!
