  • metallica and megadeth arent alike at all, i personally prefer metallica but you cant compare two things that arent in the same category

  • People still arguing on the Metallica and Megadeth who's better conflict? You do realize that they came over their differences over 20+ years. Its pretty much worthless to argue about. Both bands too different music directions, thrash metal is just a kids dream that they fulfilled a long time ago.

  • I for one am happy that dave left so we all could listen to two kickass bands not just one :DDD

  • i dont even see how ppl can even argue that this band is better then metallica. he literally cant sing

  • @62cliffburton86 Megadeth has far superior songwriting, lyrically and instrumentally.

    Just because his style of singing isn't like most, doesn't mean he can't sing. "I don't see James doing a lot of operatic singing, oh that must mean he can't sing." His voice fits the music well and is distinctive.

  • Not to be a dick, but shouldn't young dave be using a B.C. Rich like he did:p

  • got a little tornado of souls rythem in there, but that's cool :)

  • this is a fucking very underrated song. I love this joint.

  • I didn't know they made a video for this song. Awesome.

  • is the kid dave's son? i think it is!

  • steinback!!!

  • It might just be older megadeth fans or guitar nerds that noticed but I think its really cool that the young dave is playing a jackson king v and not an esp.

  • Im guessing this is about him leaving metallica to make an even more kick ass band

  • Why can't I get over the fact that this video is similar to sweeting bullets

  • 1:10 was about the time when he was betrayed by James and Lars.

    Awesome tune

  • i should be more specific, drovers are in the vid, the 2 i mentioned recorded it

  • should that be the opposite of wolf and man

  • Hey whos the guitarist and drummer in this video? I know bass is Macdonough, but is it the Drovers, or was this made before they came in the band?

  • @ .43 U CAN CLEARLY SEE DROVER ON GUITER

  • yeah its the drover bros.

  • its the drovers

  • its the drovers

  • it is the drovers right here.

  • so heres the story. after dave lsot playing ability from saturday night palsy. megadeth disbanded. but dave regained his left hand but no one would join in so he took macdonough and a couple past megadeth members nick menza on drums and chris poland performing solos while dave played the riffs on the album. before the videos were recorded chirs left and glenn came in nick started acting like a dick so he was fired and his drum tech (shwn drover) was brought in then the videos were recorded

  • guitarist was Chris Poland from the first 3 albums, drums was Vinnie Colaiuta

  • chris poland was only in for the first two. then they got jeff young i believe. chris came back to tour this album.

  • poland recorded this, drover toured. the reason die dead enough vid only has dave is cause he didnt have a established line up.

  • This song makes me wonder what it would've been like to kick it with dave back when he was like 17. Or what it would've been like to be at Megadeths first live performance.

  • i know

  • ...haha so true

  • this song is so true to life!!!!!the young dave looks like the dude from children of the corn!!

  • isnt effleson still in megadeth

  • No Eleffson got kicked after a court desute between Dave and him. Right after the world needs a hero.

  • the lyrics are irrelavent to stienbecks book of the same title

  • Comment removed

  • fucking good song!!

  • Dave's T-shirt...."California Fake Paradise"

    They did a great job on the casting for the young Dave.

  • he wears that shirt in an interview. and on the megadeth documentary.

  • WHERES CHRIS POLAND???? he help write this song???? fuk!?!?!

  • he disappeared at random from the band (doin smack or somethin) from time to time

  • yeah i heard he was always lkeaving,like  once they had to find a replacement for him cause he bailed on the killing is my busines tour

  • Lol the song title is also a book =)

  • I love how young Dave is playing a Jackson.

  • this song is about the hardship that dave had to go through to get to where he is

    including the addictions getting booted out of metallica the loss of burton and kicking out ellefson

  • Hardship indeed :/ Except maybe the drugs.

  • Glen Drover!

  • Awesome solo by mister Mustaine

  • the best american songgggggggggggggggggggggggggg­gggggggggggggggggggg

  • I´m glad, that both bands exist.

    Brought me great pleasure to listen to both of them!!!!

  • wow i respect metallica and liketheir music but htey were stupid in letting go of this guitar god kirk couldnt hold a candle to dave!!!!!MEGADETH!!

  • Comment removed

  • Mainstream... big but not mainstream. This song is anyways about his addictions... I don't know how this is sellout?

  • Fuck yeah, Metallica doesn't deserve Dave's Godlike Genius

    "All Hail"*

  • your obsession with cock amazes me

  • why are you listen it, go and listen that music what isnt mainstreamer than this, sometimes i dont unterstand the people..

  • @megadeth667 god-like? go listen to enter sandman bitch

    

  • hey dreth how about this. you post a vid of you playing something that is better than Dave. You wana go bashing? Ok, do better then. And dont just look at this song, look at a lot more Megadeth vids. Dave is a kick ass guitarist. So until you can post a vid of something better that sounds good, keep the comments to yourself.

  • im glad dave left metallica

  • yeah, because then we wouldnt have two great bands to enjoy

  • Dave is an Artist! Its like he looks at his life and displays it as art! This stage of his life he is still doing his thing and staying true to himself and his style. It's life imitating art and vice versa. Brilliant!

  • I think they picked the young Dave due to his hair and maybe looks, because he sure as hell can't at least do mock playing, his hand is always on the same fret.

  • the fire burns on and on that drives me on 'til all is gone except the simple plans of mice and men!

    I like the start of the vid.

    I like Dave.

    :DDDD

  • any info why glen left megadeth?

  • for personal reason, he is only guiterist who was not fired from megadeth

  • Mustaine is the worst person in the world when it comes to keeping band members.

    I love Megadeth but the constant lineup changes piss me off.

  • I totally agree. But the reason is probably that he is still looking that golden era line up to achieve results in witch he is satisfied I guess.

  • He is not the first. Dave didn´t fired Marty. Marty just left the group to start doing his own thing.

  • sorry but he left the band because he didnt like the sound and songs of RISK on his words said " that songs were not challenge for me at all" sorry end up the best megadeth era with him leaving

  • How about we enjoy the music and what it stands for. If you wish to discuss political views then please go and listen to "Blackmail the Universe" . Otherwise lets all just enjoy the music and stop critically mouthing off at who is better. Metallica or Megadeth. They are both more skilled than us so hush now and listen to the song.

  • *sigh* There is no way to stop people from going on about the Megadeth V.S. Metallica issue.

    But for the love of god, consider that Metallica and Megadeth are not the same groups. It's not right to compare two seperate items baised heavily on opinion, and come to the conclusion that one sucks and one rocks. You're just showing a childish, biased opinion.

    Both Metallica and Megadeth have their strengths and weaknesses, their good songs and their bad. Just accept that people are different.

  • Yeah, but the songs that really put Metallica on the map were co-writen by Dave Mustaine.....

  • I'm not gonna argue that at all. But I fail to see how that's a reason to hate against one or the other. That happens in bands. No way to avoid it.

  • I agree with you. I wish the fans would leave all the bad blood to the actual bands. I'm a bigger fan of Megadeth is all, especialy after that whole Napster thing.....

  • Napster thing?

    Personally, I'm for Metallica. But both bands are in my top ten.

  • What you don't remember Napster? Basically people were downloading songs, and naturally this pissed all the bands off. Well it especially piss Lars off who became the poster-boy for an anti-Napster lawsuit. But all this happened back in like 2000 so my memory may be a little hazy.

  • I never heard about that. I didnt' have internet or anything like that back then.

  • cool megadethmegarules!!!!!!!!!!

  • if obama wins....the system has failed.

  • guess wat...he fucking won!!!!!!!!!!!!!hell yea

    hes better than tht power hungry mcCain whos just like bush maybe worse and with bush the system has already failed

  • yeah, mccain didnt deserve to win it anyway. he didnt put up much of a fight. i only said i didnt want obama to win cause he wants to take away guns. the right to bare arms is one of our most important rights of all. it sets us apart from other countries, and is one of the reasons we havent been invaded by russia, or china, or any other country that wants us gone.

  • ?

    yeah, surely mhuge and powerful countries like China or Russia or whatever didn't invade USA cuz they have been afraid of civils with guns for all these years, sure... man, people like u r the ones who make americans look like fuckin' idiots to the rest of the world. Thanks god, not all the north americans r like u, and a lot of them use their heads more to think than to just learn to aim a gun.

  • maybe your the kind of person that makes americans look like idots. you go insult people and judge them before you even have a clue about what youre talking about.

  • Well, reading ur comment, i have all the clues i need to say what i said, especially when u said "to bare arms is one of our most important rights of all" or "this right is one of the reasons we havent been invaded yet" Man, u dont need to bare an arm to b respected by ur neighbour. U gotta win this respect, but c'mon, threating the others with a shot in the head if u get too close definitly is not a good way to do it. Hate only generates Hate, and thats for both people and nations. FUCK GUNS!

  • dude if you believe that countries like china and russia are truely our allies, then you're deluded. im not trying to simply hate for hates sake. in fact i dont hate.

  • without the on going war between both bands and fans, we wouldn't have the kick ass music we have from both bands, they make each other, as so do we all ;) pssssst but Dave is the man!

  • Amen to that, at least there are some sane people who love these bands.

  • thank you Stovanovich! you watch these bands from day one you can understand..without one there wouldn't been other, Dave has ran into a wall in my opinion due to his voice on our government. So of course here in the US

    Ps.. Dave and Marty..Daves dark riffs ,Martys beauty.. Just like Metillica has their up's and downs ( Can we say St anger )

    But back to what i was saying these bands make each other and we should be thankful we still have kickass metal! ( Dave is still the man though ;)

  • MEGADETH rules. I love MEGADETH!!!

  • I love Megadeth a lot better than metallica just because there is much Anger in almost all the earlier work of Dave Mustaine career just to get back at Metallica by becoming the most dangerous fastest band.

    Just think about it. you wrote a dozen songs for your pals,loving every single day playing shows,living the dream you wanted, then getting kicked out just cause you an asshole? when you are about to record your first album, later warning not to use you work. BUT GUESS WHAT? "KILL EM ALL"

  • i kind of wish ellefson was stilll in megadeth though, with him around the daves both looked like brothers, now its dave and other awesome musicians, but i dont know jack about em

  • to Ricknielsen,

    Although i see you taking sides with Megadeth, how can you say kirk maybe better than Dave. Dave is the boss when it comes to playing leads and rhythm. its just his commitment to singing that makes him hire a lead guitarist for the band. Anyways, Dave mustaine for Rock President.

  • someone give me a album name for this song, im buying it =D

  • The System Has Failed

  • wow u r retarded! u cant compare kirk to dave u jackass! kirk is a LEAD GUITARIST and thats it! yes he may be a little better than dave but marty friedman will school his ass any day of the week. plus kirk aint a lead singer. dave is. u dont even know how hard it is to play some of megadeths riffs and sing at the same time! its funny how people try and compare kirk to dave but not james to dave, the reason is they KNOW dave is so much of a better guitarist than james!

  • i agree with everything u just said. very well said.

  • fuck off with your stupid comment

  • metallica and megadeth are equally great. and dave is megadeth so when he was in it they were together which makes probably the best thrash metal band ever

  • i like both bands.. metallica is more famous than megadeth but it doesnt care who is more or less famous..

  • shut your cockface kirk hammett ass licker.

  • i agree!!! metallica is the best metal band ever! i fucking love megadeth but metallica is better but i do give props to dave for kicking ass

  • Legends or die young or make good music till they die, and metallica lost its legend status long ago.

  • people like you annoy me. you think just because a band looses a member they are not good anymore. if you actually appreciated good music you would not let silly things like that get in the way of it. so if i were you i would sit down and think about the sentence you just typed

  • everybody know kill em all was part of the violence Mustaine left in Metallica, soon metallica started losing its initial aggressiveness why? Mustaine is still aggressive and has anger even after becoming a chrsitian.

  • Ozzy lost the great Randy and look what we have now Zakk MF Wylde... Ozzy did just fine...

  • im that glad too cause left metallica,

    MegadetH 1000 times better

  • i for one am fucking happy metallica kicked him out because he formed megadeth....a 10 times better band than metallica..and shawn drover is the drummer:/

  • i agree, but i think metallica would better if he stays there

  • where the fuck is vinnie colaiuta? i didn´t see him. in this video plays another drummer than the album. i think a metal drummer has to be long haired. fucking commertials

  • That guy is shawn on the drums

  • Minha Nossa Senhora!!!

    Mustane é o cara!!!

  • this is no more trash.. is hardcore.... but still great!!!

  • So live your life and live it well

    Theres not much left for me to tell

    I just got back up each time I fell.

    LEGENDARY \o/

  • at 1:03 toung mustaine kinda looks like young ozzy-with red hair

  • notice young mustaine plays a jackson?

  • i saw that i thought that was very cool

  • metallica and megadeth. both are awesome.

    *gasp*! yeah i said it.

    but this song is awesome. keep rockin!

  • ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm megadeth kicks ass best part of th 3 greats (1).dio (2).Maiden (3). these guys

  • couldnt agree more but id put maiden first and dio 3rd lol

  • no megadeth, anthrax and municipal waste lol

  • megadeth rules and kick ass !!

  • Of a mice and man is a book of Marketing and Administration...and this music is about the past of dave and the future about megadeth....

  • What's the band lineup in this one?

  • shawn drover-drums

    glen drover- guitar

    dave mustaine- guitar

    james mcdonough- bass

    thats for the video though

  • el tipo que le han puesto como 2ble no se parece en nada!

  • i hate there lighter stuff but i love the rest

    \m/

  • i worship megadeth this video is killer

  • yeah to the guy who says young dave playing sucks is b/c he is a actor who looks like dave. hes my friend luke hes never played the guitar in his life but he did need to practice his fake guitar playing

  • I think this song...shoud be called "Victory"...referring to Dave´s Victory over Metallica´s...(I know this song´s about Dave´s past and the inspiration came from a book with the same name as this song)

  • they have a song called "victory"... it was on youthanasia. so it would have been retarded to call it "victory"... so its better it is called "of mice and men". The song victory is a rather weird song tho lol... not saying its bad, cuz its not, just a weird one, he uses other song titles in it through out the song... i dont rememeber for sure but i think he uses like 23 song titles in it... its just sorta a fun song...

  • love how his shirt says fake paradise

  • why mustaine live in the past? he have a great band.. fucking great band...

  • The song is warning to the listener.

    He doesn't want you to make the same mistakes he did.

  • Like SethonSWG said Mustaine as u should know Got into some heavy drugs and was a bad alcoholic which is why he was kicked out of Metallica Nearly fucked up his life and now today he is clean but he still regrets his past almost entirely

  • i love how in this song he talks about metallica backstabing him and how he just come back hard

    MEGADETH Rules

  • (in this video) young Dave playing sucks!!

  • Don´t forget that he´s just an actor representing Mustaine´s youth!!!

  • alguien sabe cuando viene megadeth a monterrey mexico? someone knows when is coming megadeth to monterrey mexico

  • me parece que no viene man...creo q nomás va a al Dfectuoso...io kería ir al de mty, pero según se no van a venir a mty :(

  • does anybody else notice that the riff from the chorus sounds a little like that one in Tornado of souls?? or its just my imagination? haha

    Waiting for Deth in México! =D

  • stop writing of wolf and man

  • MEGADETH!

  • Coman mierda Metallicos de chet xD

    MEGADETH RULES!!!

  • "this song beats any book or metallica song"...

    what a thing to say:)

    how old r u? do you think before doing things?

    you must have great grades at elementary school...

    lame lyrics.

    (no, this title is not another metallica rip of)

  • Of wolf and man?

  • no not of wolf and men. fuck sakes. of mice and men is a book. but this song kicks any book or metallica song.

  • of wolf and man lol

  • Megadeth kicks Metallica's asses!!

  • Awesome Song. I was at his concert last saturday.

  • dave mustaine is a big star

  • If I just heard the song I still would be hooked, but this video is also awesome. He's singing and kind of narrating it and examining his life like Caesar in an ancient Roman drama. It's not just epic, but universal and grand observation on life. At the end of the song he just walks away, on to write more cool shit, or in 100 years be remembered by his grand kids. He was here and he kicked ass.

  • Hermoooosooooo <3 <3 <3

  • we read the book aND MOVIE then my teacher came with this song and it was awesome

  • is there a book??? where where?????

  • of mice and men by steinbeck, megadeath dedicated this song to the book, a preview: its a retarded big guy the is freind of another guy that is small but intelligent and they are having a lie of tramps, at the story they tried to find a place for themselve to leave in peace but the innocence of the big guy brings problems to them.

  • yeah the big guy breaks a slut's neck by accident

    on topic:

    THIS SONG RULES

    it reminds me of some other song but i cant think of its name.

  • oh man u just ruin the book for him lol but yea, i like this book it is one of the best ones besides of To kill a mockingbird

  • Dude... no offense but I agree with Liet... Mockingbird owned M&M... so did Catcher and Fahrenheit 451. Though it was a good book... anyways, why are you fighting... Metallica and MEGADETH both own. BTW, anyways would say "no not of wolf and men. fuck sakes. of mice and men is a book. but this song kicks any book or metallica song." is truely ignorant... it shows you age.

  • wish me luck , i have a test of to kill a mockingbird tomorrow lol

  • the fire burns on and on

    i LOVE this song too much

    cant wait to see them in MAY :] :] :]

    megadeth is the sheeit

  • gigantour3? yeah i wanna go the one in cleveland on the 4th. megadeth is kickass and i also really wanna see bodom

  • i like how the drummer didnt go with the typical drum beat to this song at the beginning...hope that makes sense

    yeah, everyone is like 'oh i wish i was him'

    this song plus if you know his Bio, is like his way of saying 'really?'

    "i would buy your life if you would sell"

    its a DEAL!!

    i dont care about all that pain, ill take it if it means becoming a guitar GOD

    but realize how hard it must have been for him if he had no SURE way of knowin he was gonna be as great as he is today...

  • i deffinitely agree. he has had a hard life but it seems to have all worked out in the end. i would totally trade the pain for the guitar and vocal skill and the WRITING ABILITY (not a lot of people see how talented of a writer he is) but he didnt know he would make it but he still tried and now "Dave Mustaine" is a household name.

  • yeah...i would give ALMOST anything for that...

  • I'm pretty sure he hates it to a degree. I would too, if I was unable to get some groceries without being bothered on the street, or other simple things. When you come to think about it, fame DOES have it's price. He went through addictions, suicide attempts, near death experiences, losing his left arm, losing many friends he had, i mean to me at least, it doesn't seem like it's worth it, but you'll never know if you never try, and Dave sure as hell gave that one a shot!

  • every celebrity hates that...who the hell wants to be followed by fans and for some paparazzi? it would be a pain in the ass if you ask me. while mustaine might have attempted from the harsh reality of fame...nirvana's front man unfortunately couldnt handle the fame either, and now hes dead. but hey, at lease mustaine is still around and making good music!! sorry about the rambling on lol...

  • fuck. i dunno why all replies appear as they weren't

  • man this song is fuckin great , i cant wait to see em in concert on the 19th .. its gonna rock ass..lol

  • Good ol' Dave. This geezer used to live next to me when we were both about 14! haha - man, was he one noisy fucker! Annoyed the hell out of me, but I guess all that practicing sure paid off. Well, done, buddy.

  • Really? Holy shit that mustve been, eee... interesting... Where did you live?

  • bullshit your only 23!! and live in the UK

  • not all user info is correct... i'm 16 but i lied about my age.
