Metallica - Fade To Black - live - 2009-07-07 - Nimes, France

[FaceBusterPL]

Man... THAT WAS SO FUCKIN' AWESOME.

[Dluu22]

aww i fucking love this song, never get bored listening to it :)

[ASeriousSquirrel]

I love this solo it goes a little like this wah, wah, wah waaaaahh, wah, wahwahwhahwah, wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, wah, wha, wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhwahhhhhhw­ahwhawhahwah, wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

[MandH95]

METALLICA ALMIGHTY!!!

[jnuggets8297]

the masters of live performing

[TheMisterHetfield]

For me this is the best fade to black performance ever!!!You wouldn't believe it,but metallica is getting better and better!

[Tha2ndWimp]

@TheMisterHetfield Type in fade to black 85 and watch the best performance ;)

[TheMisterHetfield]

@Tha2ndWimp The first part of the song is too fast for me.I feel like there are more emotions included in this preformance.Only thing that sucks is that wah throughout the whole solo.

[throughTHEnever044]

5:47 lars's double bass....epic

[MegumiFF7]

wah fail... this song is better without wah and u can feel the emotion of guitar solo...i hope kirk play this song w/o wah

[endocry]

@MegumiFF7 So he should play it the exact same way for 27 years just so you approve of it's level of emotion? Come on guy lol.

[Tha2ndWimp]

@endocry Dude he has been using wah for 27 years. It's ALWAYS with wah when it's live. Which is a shame. The album version so awesome. This is good too, but the album version is second to none

[endocry]

@Tha2ndWimp You missed the entire point of my post, and I never mentioned the use of wah.

[Tha2ndWimp]

@endocry Then you hid your point very well. You replied to someone complaining about wah use and said he shouldn't play it the same way for 27 years. But nevermind.

[endocry]

@Tha2ndWimp I don't mind explaining my point...though I don't think it's hidden at all. It has nothing to do with how he plays or if he uses wah or not. It has to do with the fact that Kirk shouldn't have to play the song verbatim from the album just so internet armchair critics "get it" or approve of his "level of emotion" in the playing. It's annoying when random dudes who don't know shit comment on an artists amount of passion or emotion when in reality they don't know. How could they?

[TheJamison76]

too much auto-tune

[dacamapo]

5:48 Epic Double Bass !

[F1ChallengeRH]

What happend to Lars that day in 2009? He earned respect fro me then.

[EYESHIELD21HIRUMAAA]

fuck and roll!!!

[tiag28]

i love metallica, if i could i'd marry them

[20sk]

Whoever hates Lars and his drum skills can go to HELL today. Just hear the beat at 5:47 and beyound. One word to say: Masterclass!!!

[deathlyzombie666]

Lars at @1:11 Epic face

[ino1337]

great performance

[metaIIiicaftw]

god damn i really want to be able to play this song all the way through but i cant find a tab with the correct notes, fml

[Adrian92Smith]

@metaIIiicaftw try by ear. :)

[ino1337]

@metaIIiicaftw /watch?v=L_y8jH-w85M on the guy's channel there is also a lesson for the solo, and the distroted part of the song. The guy is a great teacher ive learnt most metallica songs from him lol

[metaIIiicaftw]

@ino1337 thanks :)

[ino1337]

@metaIIiicaftw no worries man :p

[metalc13]

One does not simply sings during a kirk solo

[dany3241291]

Fucking Rob he makes the band sounds so much better!!! He inspired me to be a mini-gorilla of the bass lol

[Bassfisherkid14]

Wow....Lars was amazing. Great sound, and the fills were almost perfect too.

[SmieshNorway]

It may sound strange, but what is James saying at 4:14 ''Do you feel i gotta do?''

[metfan4l]

@SmieshNorway he says "do you feel like I do?"

[SmieshNorway]

@metfan4l I can die happy now lol:) Ty man

[halofreak158]

@SmieshNorway Do you feel like I do?

[2548216512]

@SmieshNorway he sais : Do you feel like I do

[EpiCxkUmQUaTZzZ]

anybody notice there guitars are tuned a step down

[rahulpopuri]

@EpiCxkUmQUaTZzZ they usually are for the live version

[erl4nd0]

@EpiCxkUmQUaTZzZ they've been doing that since the mid 90's. it makes it easier for james to hit the high notes

[AndrewBell]

this is called paying your bills.

[MrRockydhino]

So awesome some!.. and i just can't stop loving to listen to the solo of this song! and love the way it combines with the double bass.. just awesome

[WaffletheIdeot]

James had to distract everyone from Kirk's awesome so that they would not die of exploded heads.

[bughead3]

Papa Het...Master of Riffs.

[MrChinaguys]

1:22 james was enjoy

[WilderHawk]

Trujillo is a monkey who climbs on the bass

[metaIIiicaftw]

one of the best performances of fade to black i've seen

[ayandrei]

I hate Metallica for one reason only : I can't sing as good as them.

[ino1337]

@ayandrei I hate James for one reason: No-one can sing like him*

[dacamapo]

Yeaa Lars is the guy 5:47 !!!!!!!!!!!!

[DeadGoldBass]

Geek 2 Geek ?? WTF is that pub O.o

[kuba30004]

The words are not obligatory to descibe...METALLICA

[DinoGitaristaDjapo]

[Lolmanx200]

[Mysiak46]

Metallica the best rock band in the world

[Fantascular]

I hate France now

[Metalas95]

Hey guys.Today i'm gone to show you how to destroy one of the best solos in metal history...5:50 omg kirk you destroy it....

[metallicarabbit]

@Metalas95 hey guys today im gunna show you how to be a faggot follow metalas95's lead!

[uhpgest]

@metallicarabbit 95... this guy is bringin' shame to my generation... Now people's gonna think every '95 is the same

[aleksandarWH7]

shame they gone to shit

[ShiningXwolf]

@aleksandarWH7 It's a shame that your deaf.

[aleksandarWH7]

@ShiningXwolf truth is always hard

[rezdawgify]

@aleksandarWH7 it's a shame ur a faggot

[XxCosmicHerOxX]

When I hear all those nerds saying Lars can't play the drum... WTF?! He plays the shit out off any drum kit and the MOST IMPORTANT!... he fucking enjoys when he plays. Isn't that the most important part in music? Enjoy what you play?

So GTFO all Bieber titless fans and let us enjoy some REAL music!

[ShiningXwolf]

@XxCosmicHerOxX I'm not a drummer, So I can't really make the most accurate assumption, But i think he does amazing as a drummer. Metallica has hundreds of songs, and for the most part he remembers everything he's played, and he also plays for hours on end everyday, even more on tour, so he has got to be the person with the most endurance I've ever seen.

[nefhead]

@ShiningXwolf Hundreds of songs you mean dozens !!!

[ShiningXwolf]

@nefhead Actually, according to wikipedia, they've written 95 songs and have had 149 songs on their albums (Covers and such of other bands, and including the Symphony and Metallica album)

[ItrolledYou]

@ShiningXwolf Check out Halestorms Drummer... lol "Halestorm - I Get Off (live in philly)

[carmine83136]

My best music . Just fantastic

[ANALAZER1]

Yes, this really really tight. Incrdibly good. But ya, fans deserve nothing less. Tickets are expensive aren't they?

[aolson619]

I would never use the word Nsync in a metallica video ever.. With that said, Holy Shit are these guys in sync for this show! WOW

[brittlr1]

5:50-6:45 FUCKING LOVE IT

[GHjair219]

Amazing Double Bass

[Maltaskin]

[999m4em]

[Bobcoolest]

Is that colosseum??

[warhammer5797]

@Bobcoolest yup.......not "the" but "a" colleseum

[orlandohoward12]

Lars learned drumming again ?

[Aiusthemaine]

Nice double peds Lars!

[vlegaspi]

Kirk hammett really looks a little bit like Paul pierce.

[Totema1]

Yes, James. Peter Frampton feels like you do.

[yeapthatsutlkn]

saw these guys 3 times!!!!!! most important part of my puny little life...n im only 21

[khorlaykiat]

@yeapthatsutlkn At least you say these guys 3 times. I'm already 22 and i haven't even seen them once cuz i live in a hickass islamic country that bans awesome bands like this one from performing. FML...

[yeapthatsutlkn]

@khorlaykiat damn man that blows..i'd hate to be in that situation..my family are all hardcore biblethumpers; with the exception of me ofcourse haha but i blast this music to piss em off!! i dunno if dat would work with u...worth a try rite

[Rwby1]

Omg lars again good double bass

[SimpleFireFlash]

@Rwby1 How do ya mean again? It always!!!

[yujiro1337]

[starkiller5150]

18 people have lost the will to live.

[chinchillawrangler]

[Death1458100]

@chinchillawrangler No the "Colosseum" that is the most famous is the one in Rome and obviously they are not there. They are in France....

[reno59fr]

[MrBallantyne28]

[96lolstar]

In the interview before the show James said he wanted to play in Antarctica. If they played in Greenland (Example) 20-50 (or more) people will come to the show. There are not many Metallica fans in Greenland. But that will be great if they came to Greenland. The country is beautiful

[MrKaktus94]

I am one of the survivers from Utøya/Oslo 22-08-11 and nothing describe my feelings better than the words: Deadly loss this cant be real, cant stand this hell i feel! Emptyness is filling me, to the point of agony!

[TheLazyDeath]

You gotta admit, they look great for their age, they could be sitting in a recliner rubbing their "beer" belly, watching Lingo, but NO they are still rockin, they love what they do and they dont need no assholes saying how their voices has changed, or how their hair is receeding D:<

[Kjelldon]

OK, I know Hetfield is a metal god, but I prefer his old vocal style to this twangy stuff.

[longshotgod]

@Kjelldon I prefer his old style most of the time too, but i do like how he can actually sing notes now, so on this song i prefer his new voice.

[saknk1]

16 people FADE forever !! so sad ! :(
