This. Right there.
That's how you do a reaction video. This right here is the format all (ALL) tubers should be following. It happens in real time and the people react.
Thank you both so much for not cutting the song 15 times to say "wow" or something equally worthless.
Everyone else, take note:
Intro, the whole damn song, and then discussion. Yes, please.
Liked and subscribed.
Thanks
petgeek1 thanks for noticing. We listened to the feedback to the Orion reaction and try to improve with each vid. Sometime we still stop if needed so we don't talk over the song but try to keep that to a minimum. For emotional stuff though it makes sense to not interrupt it. Welcome aboard đ
petgeek1 Exactly. Go back to a certain part if you have a comment after you already drank in the whole journey
petgeek1
EXACTLY. I have been watching a bunch of these, and you both do the best reactions. BY FAR. đ€đ»
Some pause it for copyright issues. Which is understandable. You two just keep doing what you do. :)
if you wanna react to the lyrics you gotta stop. ive seen so many videos where they dont stop and dont get half of the songs lyrics and meaningb. depens on the song. try to react to rap without pausing. (not talking about mumble cRAP)
This song really hit me two times in my life, when I went through a divorce, and when my daughter died three days after she was born.
Iâm so sorry for your loss!!
I know this is years after the fact, but I hope you're doing fine and still going strongđ€đ»

That dude has a hell of an air guitar.
Not really
@@garysievertsen9784 hey fuck you Garry
Hahaha
Sistah, I read that James stated in an interview - band went thru some issues like having their equipment stolen or get kicked out of their manager's house after band went crazy like breaking stuff or drinking his liquor. Here's the summary by James Hetfield during an interview from Guitar World: "That song was a big step for us. It was pretty much our first ballad, so we knew it would freak people out... Recording that song, I learned how frustrating acoustic guitar can be. You could hear every squeak, so I had to be careful. I wrote the song at a friend's house in New Jersey. I was pretty depressed at the time because our gear had just been stolen, and we had been thrown out of our manager's house for breaking shit and drinking his liquor cabinet dry. It's a suicide song, and we got a lot of flak for it, as if kids were killing themselves because of the song. But we also got hundreds of letters from kids telling us how they related to the song and that it made them feel better."
To add to what you said, I remember having reading that James lost his favorite guitar. He missed it so much that he came up with these lyrics.
@@AshwinNarayanplus The most precious to him from what was stolen was a rare and very good guitar amp which was a gift from his grandmother.
Actually the only 2 things which had been dropped out from their tour bus which was heading to the horizon on their sight was Cliff's bass and one of Kirk's guitar. And that was in the middle of the tour, rest of the shows they played on Anthrax's equipment and bands didn't talked to each other for 2 years after.
@@AshwinNarayanplus I'm pretty sure they all had taken their guitars in with them. It was the rest of the gear--amongst it was the first amp his mom had purchased for him as a gift.
@@vannacee26 Yeah, James has changed his story over the years, but the first take was always the amp. To me, it's more about suicidal ideation, because of what happened, not the act itself.
My best friend killed himself with this song on repeat. He didnât kill him self because of this song. He killed himself because his stepdad was a piece of shit. He was adopted. People picked on us in school. There were a million reasons why he chose that path. This song was not one of them. If anything this song spoke to us and let us know we werenât wrong in how we felt. That someone else understood. I know because we loved that song and talked about it. This is a beautiful song and it helped me with his death and him leaving me alone without my best friend.
Thank you for this. My best friend in 7th grade killed himself, I walked to his house every morning to walk to school with him and weâd walk home together everyday. I went to his house just like every morning and found him and what he had done to himself and this song was playing in his room on repeat. Iâm 43 and still think about him all the time. This was a hard one for me but thank you. R.I.P. David Daniel Fuller. Iâll see you again someday and maybe we can start off where we left off.
To Live is to Die is the right choice, đ
Ignacio Navarrete To Live is to Die 100%
Ignacio Navarrete glad to see TLITD is getting love!
That song is so much without even having a chorus..
For me that song is a bit forgottable... a bit boring :(
Dyer's Eve
Hi, my loves! You know... I have been listening to this song, ever since we did the reaction and I gotta say... this song is so beautiful! I am enjoying it so much more, after the reaction. One of my souljahs stated in a comment that this is the type of song to listen to alone; well, I kinda agree. I enjoy it so much more, on my own. I still don't cry, but oof... it takes me to another place. Thank you all, again, for suggesting this beauty!! :*
I'll strongly suggest that "BEYOND THE REALMS OF DEATH" by JUDAS PRIEST will be a nice choice for the next "Make Sistah Cry".
Just to make a Point Sistah, react to The sound of Silence Cover by Disturbed, them we talk, "cause" sis, this made me cry. and love your true.
HalfLifeSistah - You love this song you should try. Master of Puppets will blow your mind
Enrico Marangon Jr mmmnwwwaaahhh!!đ€đđđđđđŸđ€đŸ
mmmnwwwaaahhh Yeah !! or mmmnwwwaaahhh no...not really, anh Sis ? I felt hell yes!, but never sure... so reaction time Sis. lets make your soul sing and "cry".... Love your true and "hubby" make a very good job as "the narrator " you guys rock !!
This song saved my life a few years ago. I was in a low point and wanted to end it all, then this song came on the radio and made me realize, "I'm not alone... I'm not the only one who feels this way."
Just remember people, you are not alone you beautiful people! \m/
Pig Denis life is a gift, glad to hear you pulled through â
George WolfKain thank you. I've realized that everybody hits low points, but whether we overcome them or not is what makes us stronger.
Pig Denis very true!
And RIP, Vinnie Paul. Panteras drummer, brother of Dimebag Darrell. At least they're together now. We will miss him immensely.
Cobb Knobbler I hope they're up there jamming for eternity. Yeah, Vinnie was 54, and Dime wouldve been 52 now.
My money was on "I was me, but now he's gone"
Fade to black has really stood the test of time... this song was back in the 80s and it still hooks people in... that's how powerful Metallica was and still is
This song touches the soul. If you donât have one you will find out after listening to fade to black.
I think it is meant to be listened to privately, its an 'Alone Song?' Does that make sense?
Yes, it makes perfect sense, sugah!
Perfect song for a bus ride after a bad day of school. Take it from a high schooler who's into Metallica. Play this, then play something like Blackened or Ride the Lightning, or one of Tool's jams like Vicarious or The Pot. Instantly feels better.
@@hansolo12p27 Dude, so true. It's always the track I turn on as I enter the bus :)
HanSolo12P LOL!! I listened to this in high school when the album came out. Itâs awesome how, even across the decades, we share the same experience of hiding out from the world in our headphones, listening to this song. It doesnât take you down, it doesnât let you down. It takes you from your angst and depression to a higher, more powerful place. By the time the songâs over, you feel alive again.
Good comment, dude. If youâre looking for new (older) music, check out Floater. They were recently the first metal band inducted into the Oregon music hall of fame. I donât think youâll be disappointed.
Keep the faith, bro. Years from now, this song will still carry you home.
@@CatharticusX thats is pretty cool I've never had many friends and this song and others like it have always made me feel less alone and made me feel better it is pretty cool how over the years one song can have such and impact on so many people and is proof of the greatness of this song I have always felt it was the guitar that was the best singer in this song
10:32
âI wanna be moved by the music, not the imagery.â Please tell that to some of the metal core bands nowadays
The greatest song ever made ! Back in the day Metallica got heat for this song saying it was condoning suicide, but it wasn't and lots of kids came forth saying the song saved them from killing them selves.
Thatâs LITERALLY what i was thinking when watching this video. It is a perfect song, to this day i havenât heard anything better.
I cried now. I sometimes cry to master of puppets's mid-section (slow down bridge) part when I miss the song a lot. Cool reaction lovely guys.
korhan soydan hi, sunshine and thank you!đđ€đđ€đŸđđŸ
CALL. OF. KTULU. A must.
Iâve listened to this song millions of times. And when Iâm feeling down it always gets me.
Sistah I just love your reactions to good music. You get it. The meaning of the songs and you appreciate the artist and the art! Not everyone gets all of that. You're my new favorite for honest and heartfelt reactions. I wanted to say these things because too many people are quick to tell others what they dislike about them and very slow (if ever) to let them know what they like, respect or appreciate about them. This was a New Years resolution of mine years ago and so far I've done really well about keeping that one. I hope you don't mind me saying all of this! Keep on rockin!
Janet Milam oh baby, you're so wonderfuuull!đ€đ€đ€ I appreciate your beautiful, kind, heartfelt words. Wowđ You made my morning-- THAT much bettah. Thank you, beautifulđ
You say that I get it? Well... you are one of very few people to get me. I moved ny music, mostly by the things you mentioned. Thank you for *seeing me*.
đđđŸ
HalfLifeSistah - Aww. You're a sweetheart! Thank you so much!
Can you do âTo Live is to Dieâ next? I think it has a high chance of making her cry, especially that clean part in the middle that sort of imitates a radio transmission
czcams.com/video/k7_hwgD1ugg/video.html
4:56 on that link, the clean part
He is strumming a chord with the volume knob turned all the way down then he just turns it up and back down to get that effect. In case you were wondering...
Especially if you tell her about the bus crash in the intro
whether you cry or not, the unforgiven by metallica is my favourite song of all time, its definately worth a listen
That song has made me cry
@@andreasmith3439 unforgiven 2 is atleast the saddest
@@venon4575 i ll just say to live is to die interlude part if u know who cliff burton is
Songs like This help through deep dark times it helps u see that others feel the pain that sometimes u think u feel alone but in pain we can find the strength to push fwd
More than anything the reason I enjoy reaction videos is they are a moment to just sit down and appreciate music. You know it's good music when it's a song you've been listening to for 25 years and it still makes you stop and just listen to the absolute beauty of it all. This song is probably the one I would credit not only getting me into metal but music in general, and to this day that fact combined with the nature of the song makes me teary eyed almost every time.
Kipex mmmwwwaaahhh!đđ€đ
Death - Voice of the Soul!!!
A masterpieceđ
Obra maestra!!!!
Alex Vettorato one of my favorite instrumentals
*Disturbed- sound of silence*
I was 12 years old, first time I heard this album, I was probably stuck on the couch a whole month listening to a new world of metal these guys have brought to me. Glad to see everyone still sharing this amazing world of heavy metal :).
El Yogito I was 13 when I first heard this. Now, a year and a half later, it is definitely my favorite song, and I'm what's considered a "Zoomer" these days and a ripe old 15.
@@hansolo12p27 I was about idk a year or something. My dad would play metallica 24/7 in the car growing up. I'm 18 now, I listen to metallica 24/7 and I have a daughter who will do the same thing lol. I play guitar and I can play every song they produced (rhythm only lol).
Mr. Crowley. Magnificent guitar solo and unforgettable Ozzie vocals.
Diary of a Madman is a better guitar piece overall
Michael Freeman yes a masterpiece as well.
So, an Australian also sings "Mr. Crowley", which Ozzy sings?
Actually, that would be an Aussie, I guess, but what I was getting at is that it's Ozzy, Ozzie.
I love love love how dude man sits there with that smug grin like he made the music... đ€Ł It's fucking awesome. That's how I feel when I show someone great music lol
23 years later... TWENTY THREE FREAKING YEARS LATER... And this song STILL gives me goosebumps. There aren't many songs that develop a true emotional connection to me. I lost the first love of my life to suicide when I was 16. Just before she died, she gave me a tape with this song on it. I was listening to it not 15 minutes before I found out... Great now I need a drink.
It's amazing, baby! â„
This is the song that got me into Metallica and metal in general
You can try all you want to explain the meaning of the song, but you will never know, you will never understand, and you can never tell someone else what it means, until you, and only you, have lived, experienced, and felt the depth of that level of despair, described in this song. You just cannot know it, until you know it. Just as you can't know what love is, until you've known love, you can't know what sorrow, grief, or despair is, until you've known them. This song holds a much deeper meaning to me, because I've known exactly what he describes.
You might not have cried but I did. I don't always but sometimes. I heard it the day it hit the shelves and now 30+ years later it can still tweak my soul depending on the day. I'm glad you got to listen and appreciate. I love your format, It's a pleasure to subscribe. Thank you.
No one could hate Fade to Black
This is what a good song is called... Different levels, different parts, not that monotonic repeat of most R&B or country songs! Top 100 songs all time without a question.
Holy shit. This video made me cry like a baby. Not just the song, also the discussion. I've never looked at the song the way you did. My godfather commited suicide in december of 2015 and this fucking pulled on my heartstrings.
đ€âđ€
Ok.....I couldn't resist it anymore.... I had to subscribe!! I love the dynamic that you two have! You 2 are SO beautiful together!! And Sistah.....you're rocking that blouse!! Beautiful!!!
Hell yeah. The first time I got my truck metallica came on the radio. The song was ride the lightning
Pink Floyd comfortably numb! You will love it I promise! Full of passion especially from the music itself...close your eyes and play the song and you will feel it!
That song helped me through some very rough times as a kid. The most powerful time I heard it was at the Sanitarium Tour in 2000 (I think) at the Cow Palace. The entire damn stadium was singing, and a LOT of folks crying.
Watching Sistah experience songs that I have loved since my teens makes me appreciate them in a way I haven't for years. Thank you. Also I love the two of you together, such a sweet couple.
Wolfkain, you and I are so like minded it's nuts! The feeling you get from the instruments, the lyrics and everything are spot on. Keep the good stuff coming you two. P.S. when she gets emotional over great stuff she has never heard, it reminds me of the first time I heard it. Love you guys đđ
Mark Keller aaaawwwe, I love YOU!đ Thank you, sunshine!đ€đđ€đŸđđ
I didn't appreciate load and reload first either, but if you go back, they were great. You have to consider they took a 7 year break, and grew up a lot. They changed, but I now love those albums
im still here not liking either album, but the last few albums where a start to thier return to form with a very Thrash Metal sound they havent had in a long time
She is right, this song shouldn't make you cry. Emotion comes from the melody and how it hits you, not some stupid lyrics that force it out of you.
Dialectical Monist Hi, sunshine! Thank yoooouđđ€đđđđ
This is why i watch reaction Videos....enjoying the Music, when no ones here with me....but to see the pleasure on ur faces.
I like how sensitive you are to music. There's nothing wrong with that. This song instills a sense of melencholy, which exists in everyone from time to time. Its regret, disillusionment and doom that some people can't find the strength to bear. I almost want to cry thinking about it.
I can't stop staring at the beautiful lady
Dude and Dudettes...Metallica is a legend for a reason. Agree with Petgeek...this is how a reaction video is done. Ya'll killing it in every video I see. Love it. Keep up the good work...every video from ya'll i see just makes me more of a fan. Can't wait to see you with 1 million subscribes and more. Stay Blessed and Stay Well.
Cliff Burton is the reason I played the bass and still do . That was a sad day in 1986 when I heard about his death
"Wrong side of heaven" Five finger death punch. That song hits home for alot of us vets. Must watch video with it.
"I Died For You" by Iced Earth. That will put tears in your eyes.
Many folks have lost someone close - whether suicide or not, think PTSD , drugs, etc, where those unfortunate individuals who have lost themselves truly have an affect of the people around them . . . . and the helplessness & angst that these folks feel ( the " fuck , that sucks ! " ) is what Fade to Black is about , especially the build at the end. The raw headbang is why SO many people rate this song as top notch. It's not only for the actual victim , but the secondary folks , the families & friends etc that the song is written for / toward.
In 2010 my sweet baby boy was stillborn..this song was my go to song..I cant even count how many times I had listened to this beautiful song and how many tears had poured down my face from heartbreak and desperation..this song was the best outlet I could have had...I will cherish this song till the end of time..
"Missing one in side of me...."
Sorry to hear that
@@WolfKain thank you đ
She reminds me of the radio D.J. in The Warriors.
Love it. Please try 'To Live, is to Die'. Another instrumental but it was written for Cliff and uses his some of his poetry. Beautiful song, has made me tear up in the past. Metallica is for everyone, Metallica forever. Thanks guys!
You pick a great one, one of my early favorites. Lots of hard core emotions in this one. The song just builds, and builds as it fades to black. Lots of hard hitting lyrics that make you think. I love how you two just get taken away into the music. And if I can say it, you two look great together. I would enjoy going to a metal show with you two, it would be so much fun. But please don't cry.đżđ€đ»đ€đ»đ€đ»đ€đ»
I do cry when I hear this song, because this song hits home so much. I struggle with depression, and suicidal thoughts everyday.
I just want to thank you all so much for the continued love and support you give to our channel. I appreciate you all for accepting me and understanding me, as a (sometimes) overly emotional being ^_^ There is NO BETTER feeling in the world, than to feel accepted and understood.
Some people come across my channel and over criticize me for being the way that I am. They do not understand me. But, thankfully, the majority of you, who watch our reactions and have subscribed to us, do. You understand and accept what we have to offer to this youtube world of reaction channels. It feels so wonderful =) You are all so beautiful.
virtual hugs and kisses on the forehead to all of you.
Peace. Love and light.
To live is to die đ€đ»đ„
Holy shit. That cut deep for me!
Wolf you are a lucky man. Sistah is so beautiful and empathetic. The way she feels the music is contagious. I also respect your music taste from Metallic, Floyd and Tool...plus many more. Keep rocking and introducing Sistah to great music. Thanks from NYC.
This song always helps me through my depression ironically.
One last thing is that the beginning of To Live Is To Die is that it is heavy at first but then becomes soft towards the middle and sort of the end.
I think I understand halfsistaâs sensibilities. You have to do âto live is to dieâ. She needs to be moved solely by music. And this song will do that. Not to mention, almost no one reviews that song.
Freddy Gomez Orion is better for that I think .
@@FatAmericanMantittys I 100% agree. Orion has everything a fan of Mettalica could want without the lyrics. That song takes me to places that no other song has ever taken me.
guys, love your vids just found you! God bless you both, great choice of song i enjoyed watching you both and dude your air guitar is on point! this song has taken me back from the ledge many times over 30 yrs seeing it live is like nothing else on earth that i've experienced! keep it coming, i think sistah will appreciate nothing else matters as well bc it's so positive, it's so cool to see how much you love Metallica my guy, awesome how you're so hype speaking about their music
âđŒ y'all đ€đŒ /m\ edited for typos after the fact
Now imagine this in 1984 and thousands of teenagers listening to it. This was strong then and is now.
To Live is to Die is much more of an emotional song and should definitely be the next Metallica song!
Richard Tang much more emotional than fade to black? Ya I donât think so pal
Roy buchanan "hey joe" live. Its a very strong feeling cover that will hit anyone who listens deeply. Keep rockin, love yall!!
'One' is also an awesome choice, the proper film clip with the video f behind it gives it so much expression, it's amazing that Metallica has so many songs that just hit the soul.
One is Metallica's take on the war story Johnny Got His Gun. It's an almost perfect musical interpretation. The film clip used in the video, while unnecessary, definitely enhances the impact.
I'm about to watch this. And lemme tell you...I've cried like a baby many many times to this. Nowadays, recently, it warms my heart, and makes me feel free....I got through whatever I was going through thanks to this song. And now that song is gratitude and joy for having gotten through it. There is no right or wrong way to be moved by it.
Voice of soul by death. That Song is a masterpiece!
I have to agree To Live is to Die is the only choice, one of the most emotional songs ever ans also happen to be a tribute song for Cliff Burton .
Mirza DeliÄ it was the last song he worked on, my favorite Metallica song. I can understand why they don't play it at live shows.
I love how you both just shut your eyes and feel the music. Great video
ive listened to fade to black quit a few times. ive maybe cried once to it, but it was because of how I was feeling at that time from things in my personal life when I heard it. much like any song that's brought up emotions like that. great song for sure \m/
What a cool couple, seems like they would be fun to know.
ok here is one to cry :)
Nightwish - Dead Boy's Poem
Dammm , I love nightwish...... and Metalllica too >//
The way you reacted was completely appropriate for you. You felt what you felt in the way you did because of who you are.
I believe that if one expects something different than that, they misunderstand the nuance of another person as separate from themselves.
Certainly for me, it is nice when someone reacts similarly to me, but it is also insightful when something new is brought to the table.
Thank you for your honestyđđ
I have to give props to sista.... She is actually listening. And i can tell by her reactions to certain notes or parts. She feels it. It may not be her her thing. But she feels it. I think its awsome.
kbowers8111 aaawwwe, thank you baby. I appreciate yoooou! đ€đđđđ
Sound of silence by disturbed will be sure to make some tears come out!
CLIFF BURTON!!!
That double guitar riff at the end is all I want to hear on replay outside of the solo.
This song changed my way of life back there when it was released.....thanx for reacting...
That's ok, I cried for us. Makes me cry every time. Makes me think of a dark time in my past.đ€
crazexskater I'm happy to know your times are not so dark, anyone, sunshine! đ€đđ
Bless you. đ€đŒ
I bet she cried to Hurt by Johnny Cash. Everyone's at least cried once to that song lol.
The thing about metal sad songs is the music is empowering and energizing. They don't typically make *me* feel the helplessness/despair some other sad songs do.
Thank yâall for reacting in a reaction video. Youâre very genuine, and we all appreciate it.
For me this song is about the difficult situation, that James Hetifield expressed, the loss and the death, of his friend and bassist Cliff Burtton.
That was dyers Eve I thought, that was about cliff
Darwin Bautista but cliff is playing on this track....
Nathan Kiddle lol
This is before cliffs passing...
Metallica-one
I still remember 10+ years ago when I discovered this song on the radio and I only heard it from when he said "Goodbye" with the solo onward. Took me about a couple of weeks to a month find it based on that going crazy. Well worth of effort thought đđŸ
Sistah, cry or not cry, the song is beautiful. Metal is a Journey, we all ride it till the end.
onetymebigtyme I love this journey!đđđŸđ€đŸđ€đđ
You should try Disturbedâs cover of The Sound of Silence. Also Metallicaâs Unforgiven/Unforgiven Too (good combo)
To live is to die.......you just gotta! âșïž Keep up the good work guys đ
Glenn March thank you, sugah! Will dođđđ
This song saved my life when I as 14-15 but it never made me cry. I filled me up with beauty and wonderment. I used to listen to it while walking to school and the intro was always in a wooden area and nature just came alive.
Every time I hear the solo at the end all I can picture is after the deed is done the last fragments of memories are being called upon one last time as an e.m.t. worker tries to resuscitate the victim. The memories play out and slowly fade away as the e.m.t. starts realizing that the time of death needs to called.
bill seemore It kinda gives me a similar feeling
A tout le monde - Megadeth
So far away - Avenged Sevenfold
Those may hit the spot.
Yo A Tout Le Monde should be next. Very emotional and make sure to tell her why Megadeth wrote the song
For sure
They should also do "Life Fades Away", by Roy Orbison.
Yeah, I haven't seen anyone reacting to that song yet.
Ok, i love your reactions! Very genuine, you've got yourself a new subscriber :)
Awe WELCOME!đđŸđđŸđđŸđ€đđđ€đŸâđŸ
I can understand you not shedding a tear with this one if you don't take the lyrics into consideration. It's the contrast between the music and the lyrics that draws out the emotion. The music is so peaceful, serene and calm to start and ending in a fury. But the lyrics paint a very different picture, sad, bleak and very heartbreaking. The picture that is painted by this song is in such odds with each other that upon listening to it the first few times, your mind is just unsure of how to react. Thank you very much for doing this one, I really enjoyed it.
Burlyhawk aaawwwe, I loved your comment! Thank you, love! đđđđ€đđ€đŸ
I am so,, so ,, glad that yall don't pause the song,,terrific song, and the drums,,,super bass to shake the house would be tremendous, and some super treble, horn speakers for the guitar riffs,,,i wish yall would, please, react to the original video of,,,, meatloaf, id do anything for love,but I wont do that,,i hope you not already seen it before, but great video never the less,,,
To live is to die.
Actually, if you cried each reaction I would be skeptical of the authenticity of your reaction. Loved the video. This song helped me through dark times when I was a kid. Helped to ease loneliness knowing somebody else could feel the same as I had.
Voice of the soul from Death will make her cry for sure!!!!
