Metallica - The Thing That Should Not Be(S&M)

[Wadmaz]

i love metallica

[LocKe20007]

thumbs up for people who know what this song is about.

"....and with stranger aeons even death may die"

[LocKe20007]

i think he's possessed when singing. no human can sing this good. but then again..James is a god amongst men

[Bianca97LP]

My little brother asked me what "EPIC" means. I showed him this video.

[alexmartin51]

James cracking up because he forgot to sing the second verse = best ever.

[undertakeredgar]

@alexmartin51 He didn't forget they shortned it.

[alexmartin51]

@undertakeredgar Nah, I reckon he forgot to sing it. Don't give me that rubbish about "the laugh is to create a deranged effect" that was more of a legit laughing at himself if you ask me.

[undertakeredgar]

@alexmartin51 If he had really forget to sing the 2nd verse than why was there no 3rd verse in the song. Im telling you they shortned it. They did the same thing to the song in other concerts in 1999

I'm not tryn to be a dick or anything.

[undertakeredgar]

Here is some proof

/watch?v=tJqMEVF_RuA 

[ksjunkie1]

i loved the whole S & M thing but i found this one to be one of the best songs from it. imo of coarse.

[mhrl10]

03:19 James Scream ?

[koolclient]

why did he laugh at 3:14?

[DamageIncM]

@koolclient

Cause he was putting irony to the word "sanity".

And in case you were thinking he was really laughing because of something that happened during the show, he wasn't, it was artistic expression.

Get into the music man... :P

[punkrockloser7]

This is the best song they did off of S/M, I love playing this in my daily commute to work diving through traffic that should not be.

[KingREDEADED]

at 0:36 Shit is about to get real >:)

[savageblue25]

this is the heviest muther fuker out there. next to sad but true

[FanHawk2010]

this is a kickass song but i wish the volume was louder

[DamageIncM]

@FanHawk2010

Be careful what you wish for.

The volume is just about right here according to my equalizer.

If you make sources louder, you get clipping and that's what we call the "loudness war".

Which is a bad thing, trust me... that's how we got "Deaf Magnetic"...

Otherwise, get the DVD or CD...

[tripplebypass103]

37 people listen to Justin Bieber.

[k4den66]

Dear Mr. Bell; Where were you during For Whom the Bell Tolls??

[stopthemadness99]

God, this song (especially the intro) was MADE for a full string section. :)

[vovchik2000]

Cliff's Death - The Thing That Should Not Be

[Prottoy959]

@vovchik2000 Cliff dead? Didn't you learn anything from this song? "Not dead which eternal lie, stranger eons, death may die."

Cliff lives. \m/

[kakuzu134]

it's fucking awesome!



[kakuzu134]

Justin Bieber is for pussys gimme some metal :)

[lookslikeharry2]

5:28

James' little part right there, I poop every time.

[SweeetDrums]

Love the way he does the demented laugh at 3:16, what a beast. Wish that was in album version!

[RoxxorForEver]

When you clic on "the thing that should be s & m", the first vid is "Jizz in my pants". Hazard? I dont think

[Katchenko1]

1999, is the correct year that this concert happens in San Francisco with The San Francisco Symphony Orchestra,

[hepilica]

Imagine the violonists headbanging! :)

[DziobekPl]

@hepilica Hehe Look at the guys from Apocalyptica;)

[CoupeAudi1990]

@hepilica That's called apocalyptica. Check! -b

[julioangel93]

@CoupeAudi1990 But Apocalyptica plays with cellos.

[dragonfurp]

Im sitting here in my classroom writing an essay, and at the same time im listening to this song. Suddenly i feel an extreme lust to write somthing dark and horryfiing

[TheDarkSideOfMusic]

This live is amazing!

Orchestra + Metal = EPICNESS

[Valerio2381]

Does anybody know in wich year was this video made?

[killemall1983]

@Valerio2381

1999

[ThEG933]

@Valerio2381 The concert from which this song was taken is in 1999. This video was uploaded on Oct. 25, 2006.

[MichaelmyersTX]

Ph´nglui mglw´nafh Cthulhu R´lyeh wgah´nagl fhtagn

[TheLordOfPies]

This is a great song to drown out all that is going on, take your ipod plug in your headphones and crank up the voulume :)

[Giova2774]

que excelente arreglo, muy bien elaborada,para mi la mejor cancion de este disco...

[ISMAROCKful]

S&M Its a Master Job *-*

[CrazyGirl12123]

THIS IS SO AWESO- *BRLGBLGRBGLR* (mind exploded)

[Ibarrai]

35 votes that not should be...

[parsleysprigs]

@Ibarrai You need the dislikes to keep things balanced. I'm actually growing tired of metallica myself, but one things for sure. They're always be a part of musical history. That being said even though I was a long time fan I'm going to say dislike because of how over hyped metallica has become.

[tonzjsl]

I find that Kirks solo captures the whole "horror story evil monster" thing. love it

james' voice, love it even more

[crackincrackers]

>.> <.< i always thought this was based off the kraken

[TheJameslehr]

All shall bow down and wordship....CTHULHU.....and His Father....Who art H.P. LOVECRAFT.....IA...IA...fthagn­!

[JGr525]

This song gives me goosebumps...I listen to it every day. And it always gets better and better

[TaimaDjinn]

IA IA Cthulhu fthagn = Cthulhu is Metal.

[Saiwi21]

at 3:15.....his laugh makes me lose it

[onlyRicardo]

whose dont likes this is gay

[BorysTheTormentor]

WOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!

[TheTrueShadows]

35 people should not be

[DaMetalAvanger]

C'thulu is the best creature in the world, for inspiring Metallica so greatest songs as this one or The Call of Ktulu.

[AlexLazor]

1:03 - 1:08 I think I found Cthulhu!

[LandoMan09]

Not Dead Which Eternal Lies Stranger Eons Death May Die

[EoinByrneMusic]

@LandoMan09 Drain you of your Sanity...Face The Thing That Should Not Be!

[9420617]

H. P. Lovecraft would have loved Metallica... no question about that...

[xangelxofxpeacex]

3:29 is freakin' amazing!!!

[bentkkkk]

I would give my fucking testicles to have been at this concert.

[Kibby95]

is it me or does it rather sound like spy music at the begining :)

[MrHammerofdeath]

@3:15 - @3:22

[asnaes]

Ph'nglui Mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn. Ia, ia, Cthulhu fhtagn.

[TheOrionification]

This song proves that it doesn't need to be fast to be heavy as hell...

[dcs2690]

@TheOrionification Right on. Actually slow-paced songs tends to sound heavier. Have you ever listened to Crowbar?

[TheOrionification]

@dcs2690 I have not listened to them, I'm going to search for them... :D

[YOYO1991ism]

3:23

[datfunkyfresh]

can i seriously enjoy one damn song without having to see justin bieber's name?

fuck

[MrTrancemongolia]

Legendary !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! M E T A L L I CA

[LAJHS]

whenever i watch a video of good music, everyone has to bash justin bieber hahah xD and those comments are usually top rated.

[cheseecake]

FACEE THE THIIIIIINNG THAAT SHOULD NOOOT BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEthankyou

[HaydenMetallica]

35 people are things that should not be!!

[r34p3r1992]

Epic song is legendary ...

[DMAN4219]

I used to not like this song very much. Then I heard the S&M version, and that opinion changed incredibly quick lol XD \m/

[gamemstr98765431]

The nost indescribably haunting and heavy song ever.a work of pure genius the way the orchestra plays along with the savage and heav sound of metallica, i love it

[MsMetallicaFan1996]

Now we know this man is possessed!!!! If you can pause it fast enough or look closely at 1:34 you can see that James jumped nearly 6 feet into the air!!!! If you pause it it looks like he's *bleep*ING FLOATING!!!

*Reposted because of spelling placement issues.)

[MsMetallicaFan1996]

Now we know this man is possessed!!!! If you can pause it fast enough or look closely you can see that James jumped nearly 6 feet into the air!!!! If you pause it it looks like he's *bleep*ING FLOATING!!!

[ninpo4life]

With the orchestral part, this is my favorite Metallica song. The way the strings, brass, percussion, and woodwind comment on the lines of the song and add harmonic creepiness is so genius. This song is indescribably haunting. Metallica is the greatest band of all time - end of story.

[SuperWhofarted]

This is so heavy its like a earthquake, IN YOUR MIND!!!

[BlackThunder885]

@SuperWhofarted and depending on your sound system your home as well ^_^

[RandyVanHalen1]

FUCK ING HEAVY \m/ this is why Metallica is the best

[franklouuu]

This song is so much better with the orchestra.

I thought that this song was probably the worst in the Master of Puppets Album but with the orchestra... This is almost a new song. Very dark

[Tytokman]

This is why I liked Jason WAY more than Rob, Jason has such enthusiasm and is so alive, all Rob does is his little monkey dance..

[colddeath47]

First things first, cant i watch a Metallica video without seeing Justin B***** in the comments? right now i rarely go down to look at the comments and im gonna stop today since it ruins my videos, its sad

[SwissWolv]

2:22 demon face Jason!

[Caboose1117]

I can just picture Cthulhu head banging to this. That's probably whats been causing all these earthquakes actually.

[LoadMagnetic]

Amazing solo!

[MrColonela]

3:17 Pick Of Destiny

[Rudolfusftw]

Somewhere deep down the waves, in the darkest, deepest corner of the ocean, Cthulu is digging this.

[msaoichan]

@Rudolfusftw

And all the while giving Hastur shit because no one's written a song about Hastur. XD

[xLDKxClan]

@Rudolfusftw and cartman is coonin it out

[suushii90]

@Rudolfusftw the irony about that is that Cthulu actually is an air god :P

[dirtbikepro64]

I dont remember james laughing in this song

[diososcuro123]

@dirtbikepro64 ni o my god pero eso es lo bueno de el que improbisa

[mido305]

daaamn.. he was feeling this song...

[johnnyhorton2]

the begining when the orchestra sounds kinda like "black sabbath" by black sabbath

[GAMMUTRON26DET]

3.22 he's not human

[biggestj10]

this is well shit watch my videos i terror metallica!

[mathi123ify]

fuck you!!!!

[theukgod1]

0:41 , its the end of the world theme tune :O

[robepm11]

God-send demons

[arsenal2477]

why does the orchestra have glass round them?

[whannes]

@arsenal2477 Acoustics much?

[NUNPUNCHER714]

@arsenal2477 to protect them from james awesome demonic voice ;) HA HA!

[arsenal2477]

this is the greatest vocals on the show

[FlamingPineapples1]

and that my friends is how awesomeness came to be

[metaldrummer2397]

Symphonic Black Metal < Symphonic Thrash Metal \mm/ and when james laughed at 3:16 he sounded like he did in the 80s if u ever heard him laugh

[metaldrummer2397]

Symphonic Black Metal < Symphonic Thrash Metal \mm/

[PotatomanIV]

3:06 James is probably thinkin to himself, "wow, we wrote a damn good song!"

[tabluvsrock]

Great Symphony, JAMES HETFIELD's VOICE \mm/ :D

His laugh @3:15 . \m/

[tabluvsrock]

Great Symphony, JAMES HETFIELD's VOICE \mm/ :D

[ZaneHitsurugi]

Wasn't really feeling this one.

[Rock4life93]

the little thing at the beginning sounds just like the intro to black sabbath

[TheHellbrothers666]

YO TENGO ESTE ALBUM Y ES DE LAS CANCIONES QE MAS ME GUSTAN

[kutlessrocker23]

All hail the mighty Cthulhu! 

[ZaneHitsurugi]

@kutlessrocker23

lol what

[kutlessrocker23]

@ZaneHitsurugi Cthulhu is the fictional monster this song is about. Look up "The Call of Cthulhu" by H.P. Lovecraft.

[Jucermy33]

:O YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH JAMES IS THE BEST

[longhorns27]

@chansey13795 You have been another victim to Metallica's mind fuck. It's awesome

[Chochiman]

Good nights, lil' Cthulhu

[thewag777]

Brilliant! The orchestra background really adds to it. Clever idea, Metallica

[teenmetalfreak3]

hey, I'm trying to find something that is better than epic. Oh wait, it's S&M. Fucking awesome!!! \m/

[DMoots]

Haha the woman at 5:12 is like "MUST PLAY THIS INFERNAL RACKET!!!! JAMES HAS SUMMONED US"

[musikrammstein]

maldita sea esta cancion me posee, y empiezo a hacer cosas tan enfermizas que me asusto yo mismo empiezo a convulsionar y ese tipo de cosas y hablar como satanas jajajaajajajajajaajajaja

[throll2008]

Este video es creo que el numero 3 o 4 de mis favoritos en este concierto! lml

[horror4ever1997]

[roxterat]

@nicolasTaBjA96

[polokowski]

[LegoGenfilms]

This song makes me sooo fucking scared O.O Cthulhu is coming for me, i can feel it :'(

[needkolas]

Thumbs up if you fucking sick of the people that fucking say's fucking thumbs up SHUT THE FUCK UP!!

[KigekiHakuchi]

Dagon swallowed 34 people whole.

[caboose39134]

[caboose39134]

god damnit. im tired of this "thumbs up if you..." bullshit.

and @zealotelite044 this is a live concert...think about it.

[caboose39134]

god damnit. im tired of this "thumbs up if you..." bullshit.

[MitchellBleesTube]

@zealotelite044 Studio editing, that's why

[atsuktuvas2]

99% of teenagers would cry if they saw Justin Bieber standing on top of a skyscraper about to jump. If you are the 1% sitting there with popcorn and 3D glasses, screaming "DO A BACKFLIP!" Like this

[michellangelo22]

@atsuktuvas2 ''99% of teenagers would cry if they saw Justin Bieber standing on top of a skyscraper about to jump''. WRONG!! 99% of all teenagers want himdead. under what rock have you been living?

[0ZAZU]

@atsuktuvas2 I don't understand how this is pertanent but it is funny.

[FredAndXaveloy]

@atsuktuvas2 99% already? Well, people started overreacting that pretty fast. There's actually about 25% that like Rock or Metal the most.

[4zr489]

@atsuktuvas2 Who the fu** is Justin Bieber?

[xangelxofxpeacex]

@4zr489 you dont want to know...

[thericecrispy2]

@atsuktuvas2 you mean "DO A BARREL ROLL!!"

[FFBpictures]

best song with the orchestra...period.

[gamerinsideu16]

3.15 onward...The laugh aww fuck..JIZZ

[NickChim]

@Putian98 Axl must die.

[greendayholidayrules]

james' voice <3

[904austin]

@greendayholidayrules yea he sounded great in this.

[Govenator1]

Justin bieber is the thing that should not be!!!

[Dimitrando]

@Govenator1

Justin Bieber is not worthy to be Cthulhu

[4shr4m]

@Dimitrando

Justin who ?

Speak of music or gtfo, thanks.

[1994djNemo]

@Dimitrando my comment on him: as Metallica would say: The Thing That Should Not Be, or at least The Thing That Should Not Sing

[Cxaxakluth]

Fuck I love this song. Fits the Lovecraftian theme perfectly. It sounds so wrong is such a good way!

[yklamix]

Cliff Burton´s death is the Thing That Should Not Be...

[NickChim]

2:23. For a split second look at Jason xD
