Cliff Burton was something otherworldly, his magic on bass was just impossible to qualify. R.I.P. CLIFF BURTON
Impossible to qualify? What the hell are you even saying
I think he was trying to say quantify. 🤷🏻♂️
He was just MAGIC!
Your comment tries too hard
Fuck these guys, I'm a bass player and I get you. Truth, my brother.
8 minutes, No words.
Yet a story was told somehow.
This is why metal is the closest to classical music.
Beethoven's 5th symphony has no words. Yet 220 years later it is still instantly recognisable.
Metal is classical music with guitars. You can't be metal without the complexity.
Nah, they where just jaming back than hehe
@@ST1973 Heh, to a degree maybe, but no - there's classical musical theory running through this, and a lot of the rest of their work at this time - this is what Cliff brought to the band. His knowledge elevated these works into what could be considered a form of modern classical music. Which was why he was such a loss to the band. He did manage to impart of lot of that musical theory to the others though, and they worked through it like champs and were able to continue.
I've listened to almost all of the Metallica songs on classic covers (violins, piano, etc) and it's remarkable how it still sounds cool and masterclass.
@@oldb12 Exactly my friend - which proves the point - the S&M album they did with film score composer Michael Kamen also proved how "classical" in nature these works are .
Cliff had the most beautiful, heavy, crunchy, badass bass sound ever. Definitely in his own dimension. Sometimes I wonder how their music would be if he was still alive. RIP Cliff.
🤘
Have been playing guitar my whole life and love seeing younger people going down the Metallica rabbit hole. Rock on brother!🌀
😂
..yea, love welling up for 8 mins while a pubeless numpty essentially shits on your stack by pretending it's brand new on their ears.
Come on bro, these little neeks know exactly what they're doin.
Fuck yes. It makes me happy when people actually feel the breakdown during Orion and understand exactly why I still slobber and drool over it 28 years after finding it
@@notruefaceall three of you guys. Please please do not let this music die. I beg you to please pass this on. Im 15 years old and im in awe of metallicas music. We need to remember who we are.are you guys with me?
Yeah we lived it and the thing keeps going. It's awesome.
I'm nearly 67 and Metallica have been my favourites for as long as I can remember. This song just proves you don't always need lyrics to make awesome tracks
Cliff made them sound really different. I wonder, what would happen if he'd survive...😢
Right on. I'm 55 and have been listening to them since I was 16. Great band.
This and Damage Inc. are peak Cliff Burton. He was taken way to early. We miss you Cliff.
Oh heck yes, damage inc, I'm going there next, totally forgot about that song 🤘
Too soon, my brother..... Too soon....
Orion is still great after hearing it a thousand times!
At 9:35 that is Cliff Burton's solo on bass guitar. I LOVE "Orion"! As James Hetfield said, "That was Cliff's 'baby'."
Cliff Burton (bass) was the main feature in this song. There has never been a bassist that can relate to his caliper of play. RIP Cliff
While I somewhat agree I have to remind you Les Claypool exist
So I straight get goosebumps everytime I listen to this song, been listening since I was 13, I'm now 49 and I nearly cried when you lit that joint 🥲🤘🤘
Same bro, same... I got a nice "J" next to me, enjoying this reaction Video... Metalhead since I discovered Metallica in the early 90'... I was like 10 years old... 30 years later I still listen to trash metal such as Pantera, Megadeth and Metallica.
I love you all ❤️
I love it when people discover Metallica. I'd give almost anything to go back and be able to experience all their albums for the first time. I gave my daughter her middle name after this song. They were only like 22 years old when they wrote this masterpiece. It's by far my favorite song of theirs. Cheers bro. Enjoy the ride and take it all in. Welcome to the Metallica family. 🤘🏻
The basist Cliff Burton is behind this song. He was the musical brains of the early Metallica, and super virtuous on bass guitar. He died just so young in bus accident during their tour. Such a tragedy.
I really recommend to watch his bass solo from their first album, Anasthesia (Pulling teeth). And preferably the live version from Chicago 1983, to see him in action. He turned the bass into solo instrument in a totally new way, and is still concidered on of the bass legends.
The quality of that live film is very low in todays standards, but still you can see his talents. Really recommend to watch for the experience.
And btw, thanks for these reactions, really pleasure to watch. Keep on the Metallica journey!
100% 🤘🤘
The live video of them in northern California when Cliff does the solo and then they break into "For Whom the Bell Tolls" is awesome as well. 🙂
This is the kind of song that you just put on some headphones, lay back in a chair, close your eyes and let it take you for a ride
I’m so excited to watch this guy’s Metallica journey.
I’ve never seen anybody start from the beginning and go in chronological order. Would love to see him start with the first album and go through. I know he’s shootings for views being a smaller channel…but man that would help him explode IMO
Just think, they were 22 and 23 years old when this masterpiece was written. Mind blowing!!
the into at the start when you said “oh those heavy guitars man” was the bass. Same with 3:26, and 9:36! Cliff burton was absolutely amazing and my all time favourite bass player as a bass player myself. 🤘🤘
Bass player here. This is the song that made me wanna play bass. Damn the harmonized bass parts at around 9:00 just blew me away.
Orion is definitely a must for any new listener of Metallica 😊 R.I.P. Cliff Burton helped make this song possible this is one of many instrumental pieces Metallica has produced.
Listen to "Call of Ktulu"😉💯⚔️
It was me that recommended it. The entire album is stellar. Not all Metallica does is fabulous, but the majority of their songs are.
If you're looking for something different, try the Maori band, Alien Weaponry, song Kai Tangata. It's not in English, but i think you'll get out of your chair over it.
I've been listening to rock and metal for 30+ years like a lot of people you'll encounter here. We can keep you busy listening to new tunes for a decade and still not be close to done.
Other great bands to start with: AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Alice Cooper, Dio, Judas Priest, Black Sabbath/Ozzy, Megadeth are all sure to be the perfect introduction to metal.
8:03 love this moment...
I can barely play parts of this on my bass and it gives me shivers it's so amazing
Keep at it. Took me years to learn it but damnit, it’s worth it.
YESSSS ORION MADE HIM PULL OUT THE JOINTTTT 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻😂 awesome!
It made me do the same mate 😂❤
It made me do the same mate 😂❤
Your reaction is priceless, mostly because it is really the same most of us had the first time and, in all honesty, every additional time we hear their music. Love it!
Absolutely this. Whenever I see someone react to this song, and I see that look of bafflement settle over their face as the bass solo kicks in, I’m IMMEDIATELY taken back to my first listen, which was on one of those big ‘ghetto blaster’ dual-cassette boomboxes in this little shed that my mate Jeff eventually insulated, installed a couch and a loft bed within along with a TV and VCR, and more or less moved into at 15 or 16. He and I and 2 or 3 mutual friends used to play guitar, get drunk, and get high in there for whole weekends at a stretch.
The point is, though, I remember well clearly hearing that bass solo, turning my head very slightly to the side, and asked, “Who just played that solo?”
“That was Cliff.”
“What, you mean that overdubbed, harmonised lead solo?”
“That’s the one.”
“Can a bass guitar do that?”
“Clearly; we just heard one do it.”
“Fucking hell. Can we run the tape back?”
Etc.
Over the years, I’ve learnt that a surprising number of people can relate to this story.
But anyway, the
Creeping death seattle 89 or Moscow 91 would be a good one to react too
To live is to die is another must masterpiece instrumental off of And Justice for all album! But they don't have a bad song through first 4 albums! ROCK ON
Pantera , Walk is another oldie banger with a message many can relate to.
Orion will always be my favourite metalica song I think it’s the best ever written mostly cuz of cliffs writing it’s just a masterpiece
Once you started reacting to Metallica, everyone who has a you tube channel that listens to Metallica are getting your videos in their feeds, that's how I found your video it was in my feed a few days ago. So thank Metallica for boosting your channel views! You Tube at work for you! Cheers bro!
One thing I really love, is other people reacting to my personal favourite band. Negative or not, I still love that they at least gave it a try.
If your going to watch any.... ANY, of their live performances.... You need to see their live videos from Russia. The shear amount of people in that country attending their concert is astounding to say the least. This band has been a major part of my life for the better part of 40 years...... Welcome Home (Sanitarium) is a personal favorite that Hits home
Mate, fuck yeah. You’re hitting some absolute gems.
The whole album is 🔥
The intro is not heavy guitar. It’s all bass from the legend himself
CLIFF BURTON
So much bass that’s mistaken for guitar in this song…
If you liked this song you would also like Metallica's 'To live is to die' from their "And Justice for All album".
As for something new, you can't go wrong with Led Zeppelin "When the Levey Breaks" or "Ramble On".
Led Zeppelin's Achilles Last Stand should be in the discussion.
@@colonelquack I'll have to listen to that one. I've never heard it before.
@@johncassles7481 Physical Graffiti is my favorite. The B-side, especially. If you're into long instrumentals, Achilles Last Stand will be up your alley.
@@colonelquack I'll look all those up, thanks.
I'm loving your reactions m8. It's good to see younger generations getting into it. Reminds me of myself 40 years ago starting the metal journey. Once you're hooked you're a metalhead for life! Keep em coming. Smoke away!
No one writes music like this anymore. One of the most powerful instrumentals ever written.
Every time I listen to it (more than 30 years) I enjoy it just like you....INSANE
This song takes you on a journey, through space and beyond.
Dude we like to watch your reactions on Metallica's songs. You should definitely make video on "For Whom The Bell Tolls". I swear you won't regret it🔥🔥🔥
Live Cliff Em All
I'm a fan of many many metal bands and every Metallica album. That being said the 80s Metallica is the best I've ever heard. Nothing beats it.
i never get bored of watching reactions to one of my favorite bands
I'm a fan of Metallica since 1991 and I'm so happy to see new fans "forming" all the time :)
at 2:10 the intro is cliff on bass... he had multible distortion pedals the intro sounds clanky yet gripping and i love that... also at 3:26 and at 9:38 cliff did these bass solos with even more distortion
“Disposable Heroes” will take you apart in the best possible way 🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘
Fuck yes
lol, u hear me. I hope enjoy it. Im sitll hearin after 25 years, and i still loving it.
Gotta listen to The Call of Ktulu now, another great instrumental by Metallica. My two favorite songs of theirs
Metallica had a mysterious musician with classical music influences, it was he who introduced them to that type of harmonies. He was a very virtuoso musician, we owe him that bass intro with effects pedals simulating a synthesizer. Tragically he died on the tour to promote that album. R.I.P. Cliff Burton 😔
Cliff could solo like a lead guitar with a bass. The guy was unreal! That’s why there’s so much pain on Justice. They also treated Newstead horribly. I would have left too!
It was Cliff Burton's energy that was put into recording Orion that ultimately gave you the urge to smoke that joint even though you said you had put it down for the time being. For all intents and purposes, you smoked a joint in the name of an absolute legend and didn't even realize it at the time... R.I.P CLIFF BURTON!
One of Metals horrific news of loss. Rip Cliff Burton 🎸💔 One bad ass bassist in history!! Taken too young I believe 24 yrs old! I remember I was shook! I've had the honor of watching Cliff play, with his massive hands and no pick!! A Beast on the bass! Cliff was chill, I remember he was in jeans n a t-shirt just Slayin that bass!! 🤌 He'll be forever missed & never forgotten. Rest in Rock Cliff ♥️🤘🤘🎸💥
I love seeing reactions to this song. It lets me relive the feeling of when I heard the song the first time.
Jealous of you, enjoying these masterpieces for the first time
Been a life long fan 30 years
\m/💀\m/
This song hits every emotion for me. Truly a ride
The intro with Cliff Burtons bass is assume 🤘 R.I.P Cliff, the Bass Hero!
The channel is awesome, your vibe is off the chain, great content, instant laughs, instantly subscribed! Nice work, good sir!
Welcome aboard!
Great vid mate, Keep up the good work. Loved you in East 17, All the best from Australia.
Lol, I don’t know whether to laugh or cry
Absolute masters of their craft.
Hi, I've just discovered your channel and I'm glad to see young people discovering Metallica. Long live your project from a Frenchman in Paris.
Mi sembra di rivedermi alla tua età,tornavo a casa ubriaco e mi ascoltavo i mitici METALLICA,fumandomi l'ultima sigaretta prima di andare a dormire,grande MOLLYBOY,non ne potrai fare più a meno di questa fantastica musica. 🤘M🤘
this was my LIFE at 16 🥰
So, James is lead vocals and rythym guitar, the late Cliff Burton was the bassist, Kirk is lead guitar and Lars on the drums. There are a few songs where James and Kirk play together. Good stuff
Lead bass man, it's something legendary. Cliff's fingers just flew across the fretboard, they had a mind of their own. I played some of it, it's really fun to play, but I could never figure out the final solo with the "devil's trill"
Glad to see your further along in kicking the smoking habit..
Great reaction...this song got played at our high school talent show the lead singer and guitar players 8 year old brother came in and played bass...and stole the show..he was absolutely amazing..I'll never forget it
It really depends on what time of metal you eventually lean towards. But if you dig the purest of these, the classic metal, this will definitely remain in your tops. This and Justice are way up there in mine.
Cliff esta increíble en el bajo. Tienes que escuchar el disco Ride de lighting. Te volará la cabeza.
It's not only "knowing to play" it's very much about the composition, it sounds gooddddd
Dunno how I found myself here but this was great - glad you recognise this as the masterpiece that it is. It took a few tokes for my mates to understand this too when I introduced it to them a long time ago, so don't blame you for that. Now you're broken in, you can listen to it anytime without enhancement. You also seem like a good lad, so will check out your other stuff. Great to see a younger generation get on board with this.
So good to see a young man discovering the magic of Metalica´s early records. Goosbumps all the way with this songs.
One of the best instrumentals ever.
The best metal instrumental EVER writen. PERIOD
You should check out ' The Thing That Should Not Be ' live 1989 it's their heaviest song in my opinion
That whole album is gold. Top ten of all time for me. Love the reaction.
If you're diving into the metal deepend then, you have to check out Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Megadeth to start off
If you listen to any more of the ...And Justine For All songs, you need to listen to them with the bass. Back in '88, when Jason Newstead first joined the band after Cliff's passing, as part of Jason's "initiation", Lars told the mixer to turn the bass all the way down and the final product had no bass in the entire album. Not in vinyl or CD. When you hear the bass in Blackened compared to no bass, it's night and day.
Fun fact, Mollyboy, the Orion droning intro is just bass and drums - no guitars. Cliff Burton, the legend, RIP. So cool to watch you appreciate metal; and thrash metal, specifically. Thrash is metal influenced by Black Sabbath (the godfathers!) and the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, plus punk rock.
There were songs that were proto-thrash in the late 70’s and early 80’s, but, arguably, the general consensus is that the first proper thrash album was Metallica’s ‘83 debut, Kill ‘Em All.
The aggression, intensity, and multiple movements (like in classical music) within thrash metal make it not only visceral and emotional, but intellectual and pensive as well. To watch you experience that and understand its complexity is cool, man. It hit me the first time i heard this stuff just like it hits you. Your love of music makes your channel a pleasure to watch. Keep it up, little bruv.
What a masterpiece thank you Cliff🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Still probably my favourite Metallica song. Ever.
Great tune, great reaction! I remember when I was in high school (in the 90's) my Art Class took a trip to the Museum Of Fine Arts Houston, we were told ahead of time there would be a Walkman, mobile cassette tape player with headphones, that had a tape that curates the artwork. So I packed a lunch and a joint plus a Metal Instrumental tape I put together that of course included ORION. So when we got there I peeled off from the class, walked down the street, Burned Down, went back into the Museum, got my Walkman, put in my own tape of Metal Instrumentals and just strolled around, high, rocking out and LOVING all the amazing works of ART, including the ones I was listening to!
When you said, “what am I hearing” that was the same reaction the in the world of metal. Brilliant iconic piece of music. Please react to ‘To Live is To Die’ by Metallica. Also an instrumental dedicated to their bassist Cliff Burton who tragically died. The song represents the different stages of grief.
Yes, that part at 9:36 that melted your brain was in fact a bass solo
I'm so happy a young man is getting such enjoyment from old music.
That guitar over the melodic bass line is likr the guitars are crying and weeping . Its soo soulful. This is a masterpiece as the whole album is.
a favourite of mine
You should definetely listen to "To Live is To Die" man. That is one instrumental masterpiece of Metallica. Keep up the good work.
A good string of Metallica to listen to, on your own time, would be the S&M album, disc 1, tracks 1 through 3. Ecstasy of Gold, Call of Ktulu, and Master of Puppets. All in one string 😁
Loving your reactions, especially to Metallica, Pantera and Slayer. Feels like I'm listening to it for the first time again
That's baby making music that's what that is right there.
Love seeing the reactions I had from someone else, my favourite band for many years. Pneuma by Tool would be another great song to react to, the time signatures they use are very interesting
Hail Cliff. I've been to the crash side several times. And of course the remembering stone. It's always impressive to see how he still being loved bij the fans
Luv ys BRUV!!! THAT SONG DESERVED IT!!! PUFF PUFF GIVE GIVE!!! 😂😅😊 🤟
Another great song from a masterpiece album. The solo gives me goosebumps like the first solo in Master of Puppets... melodic and harmonious bliss. Thanks for another great reaction 😊👍
Metallica was the main reason I was walking around town with a pair of headphones on and a blissed out expression in the late 90’s.
My favorite Metallica song
Yes, Metallica have a few instrumental tunes Basically the guitars sings to you.🤘
Always wonder if the 3 get a little emotional inside when they play this live.
Subbed to you. You seem genuine. Keep it up, my friend.
Thank you very much!
Welcome to the Metallica family! your in for a treat. To my mind, they are the most versatile band ever, and the most creative and technical as well. I don’t mean they are the most technical ever, I just mean they’re in the conversation for being extremely technical and they’re also in the conversation for creativity. I haven’t heard a band that’s had both of these traits at a high-level and for such a prolonged period of time.
I was lucky that I found them in 1990 when I was in high school. Going out into my car, putting my seat back, popping an album in, and closing my eyes and just listened and absorbed all of their music. They definitely save my life.
Magic
Love that cigar..... 👌👌
It's really a metal orchestra. An amazingly beautiful trip.
Theirs a song, on " and justice for all" much like this one, this is one of my favorites, and so is the one on and justice for all
Both are absolutely beautiful songs, it's called
Metallica - to live is to die
