[metalheadjase]

No metallica are sell outs and have been since at least 1992 after the black album ....utter second rate crap now. 

[mrfatski]

@metalheadjase youtube.com/watch?v=d_4rW8P1I9­g skip to 2:04 and shut your fucking mouth

[mrfatski]

@metalheadjase just cuz you're older than me don't mean you know what the fuck your talkin about you ignorant assclown. they dont fucking care if you call them sellouts, they're doing what they're doing because they fucking want to

[Psychoholiday223]

@mrfatski you mad, bro?

[LetsNostalgia]

@mrfatski

Lulu still fucking sucked. Like, it was worse than St. Anger. I actually had to listen to St. Anger again so I could fucking forget how bad Lulu was.

[XxMETALMESSIAH]

@LetsNostalgia ok st ANGER WAS GOOD

[LetsNostalgia]

@XxMETALMESSIAH

Yeah... no. No it wasn't. It was horrific (except Some Kind of Monster).

[Nand0150]

@mrfatski i cant watch it. ehat is this video?

[metalheadjase]

Never thought i would say this but i prefer the original version over the Metallica cover version (btw i still have this on vinyl)

[MarcelloCreep]

maYBE the first grunge singer in the history of music

[EMERALDanimations]

This is just CLASSIC.

[tonkpils31]

Did anyone notice this video has Metallica's version of lyrics? It should be "I'll see you burn in hell" instead of "I'll spread your blood around"

[MrDKdingo]

Fuck this shit, diamondhead made the song, metallica covered it. Which version you like more I don't give a flying fuck.

[Guille946]

hell yeah



[qick07]

am i evil = headbanging music!!!!

[Animalchemy18]

Comparing this to metallica's version is like apples to oranges. some like just apples, some like just oranges, some like both. some of you dumb bastards would rather shove both up your ass so you have something to complain about. Such is life. personally I think both are freakin sweet.

[ss3man1]

I hate all the fags who say' OMG METALLICAS VERSION IS BETTER OMGGGG'

And make anyone else who's a metallica fan look like a fuckhead.

This version is better.

[Hockeyevan9992]

@ss3man1 It's all a matter of opinion and taste, stop acting like you know everything.

[ss3man1]

@Hockeyevan9992

I'm not, but as a i scroll through the comments i become ashamed to be a metallica fan because of all the shitfaces who say that metallica is the BESTEST BAAAND EVVARRRR!!!!!

And i said this version is better, that's my opinion, problem?

[demondog48]

@ss3man1 Im a mettalica fan, but when somebody does a cover... its not as good as the origanal, but its their opinion, i like the mettalica version better... but im not just saying that cuz i do like thiers better, but im saying it because its thier opinion...

[ss3man1]

@demondog48

You have every right to your opinion, i just can't stand those fags who say that metallica is better than everything everywhere and the world owes it's existence to them, they make metallica fans look like little faggy 10 year olds.

[demondog48]

@ss3man1 Ya, it does, thiers tons of other great bands "Danzig" "Motorhead" and way more that i dont feel like typing in, i do agree...

[420lightmyspliff420]

guy who always meets 240p again........ we meet again

[voboghure99]

Am I evil!

Yes,i am!

[residualbill]

I didn't know until recently that they did two studio versions of this song (Lightning to the Nations and Borrowed Time). I haven't decided which recording I like better. Still learning this band. Got those first 2 albums playing almost continually.

[NewGamer101]

Why is this gay ass Metallica sh!t on the side?

[MetallicaFanOne7]

@NewGamer101 Mabe because they did a cover of this song and they are the best band ever...stupid

[Kworjj]

Stop arguing and enjoy some classic metal.

[limitbreak619]

La Original!

[NoR3m0rse96]

Hi id like to say first of all that i prefer more metallica‘s version ! I mean i also like and respect this band but thrash is my fav! Anyway i wanted to ask you diamondhead listeners an fans what does this “27“ means ! Could somebody help m with that ? Thanx

[theshadow180]

@NoR3m0rse96 shorter way of saying "at age 27" i think but i could be wrong

[MetallicaEqualsWin]

I have heard metallica´s version alot but never heard this one...

I now have and I just can´t stop listening to it!!

[turbofritz2]

Metallica version is more heavy. This is not real thrash metal.. This is hard rock/ bit metal/punk.

Metallica is full blown Thrash metal...

[vincentjurg]

@turbofritz2 No, Slayer, Exodus and Kreator are thrash. Metallica WAS, but isn't anymore.

[villadavid4ever]

@vincentjurg Well Death Magnetic is thrash

[luisz141]

@vincentjurg Hey man you know if we are talking about thrash Kill 'em All is enough to beat all their albums (Kreator and Exodus Albums) ok you know what i mean motherfucker!

[vincentjurg]

@luisz141 I'm not saying that. I'm saying that after "...And Justice For All" they went commercial and everything they've made after that album is hard rock. "Kill 'em All" is great though.

[azraeldeath420]

@turbofritz2 fuck Metallica, bunch of fuckin twats like you, and fuck you. hahahaha

[turbofritz2]

@azraeldeath420 WOW - you are so tough.

[sixshooter500]

@azraeldeath420 you're an idiot. Where it not for Metallica, and the royalties from their version. Diamond Head would not have lasted this long. They've said as much.

[azraeldeath420]

@sixshooter500 royalties? that's what sellouts say

[sixshooter500]

@azraeldeath420 No, that's what starving people say when they aren't starving any more. You want your music that you love to exist? Don't get pissy when they make money off of it. Without money... there is no music.

[TheAqualegend]

Being a huge huge metallica fan! This is better than metallica's version...

[mojototal]

@TheAqualegend Metallica? More like Selloutica if you ask me.

[TheAqualegend]

@mojototal Don't know what the hell that's even supposed to mean dude.....

[Gizzcat]

Awesome song, but Metallica's version is just a little bit better, because in the 'Tallica version, the vocals don't sound whiney. Best part of the original is when the solo starts, he says "Mister Guitar!!!"

[eduardo0796]

no offense to metallica fans, but this one, the original one is way way way better!

[Antichrist1305]

where's the nonlive version x_x keep finding shitty live all over the place

[COFsux]

@Antichrist1305 this is the first time I hear this song and let me tell you, there's NOTHING shitty about this.

[redder1111]

@Exterminans777 would you plz give me a mp3 download link for this version? thnx

[hervoiceresides666]

sonisphere 2011 !!!! :D

[LegitimateBloxxer]

Sorry Metallica fans, but they're version sucks ass. sorry but no other band could beat some classic shit like this

[ScorpionAndZangief]

@LegitimateBloxxer I agree that this version is the best, but I think Metallica's live version from a few years ago is comparable. Not better (or even just as good, for that matter) by any means, but comparable.

[TacoNinja27]

i wasnt saying it was hard, i just want to know who can. i can only play the intro

[TacoNinja27]

who can actually play this on a real guitar?

[L4MD4]

@TacoNinja27 Uh me? It's not that hard.

[07williamsdj]

@TacoNinja27 I can play until after the main riff

[AdrenalineAddict610]

@TacoNinja27 I can. It's relatively easy.

[TRMDYLE666]

tasty.

[JWhitehurstAcoustic]

The guitarist, Brian Tatler, is my guitar teacher... epic win.

[robindarksoul]

es muy weno este tema.....me gusta muxo lla version de metallica...........pero esta es mil veces mejor... yyyyyyyeeeeaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh­hhhhhhhhh¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡­¡¡¡¡

[WTFJustnoRELOADED]

This is my fucking anthem.

[MetalBertil]

Nope! Jusst Chuck Testa!

[Jacksonrox13]

Reminds me of the intro to "Black Sabbath."

[predator5723]

this is the original?...

[throughTHEnever044]

@predator5723 yep

[gnutsrocknroll]

@predator5723 yes

[avaitor]

Am I the only one that thinks this song is about Doctor Doom?

[blockrage8]

I just got a boner listening to it!! XD

[Corleonetone]

the beggining reminds me of the devil's trial, by king crimson

[thektulu28]

el solo es muy chingon, me gusta mas el solo de esta cancion q el del cover de metallica...

[morrowindarcherman]

240p.... we meet again

[niniafo]

@morrowindarcherman this is getting old dude..

[DRS5193]

@morrowindarcherman Good thing its a picture and not a movie. Otherwise the 240p would actually disturb me.

[docmass15]

@morrowindarcherman stupid overused youtube comment and thumbs whore wee meet again

[morrowindarcherman]

@docmass15 He mad.

[youkingrock1337]

14 people dont like diamonds

[mistery91able]

@youkingrock1337 wtf diamonds? srsly? the name diamond head comes becouse a diamond is harder than rock and heavier than metal so not a rock head or a metalhead but a real diamond head

[youkingrock1337]

@mistery91able actually this wasn't an serious comment

[VideoMask93]

@mistery91able That is ingenious.

[VideoMask93]

@mistery91able That is ingenious.

[mistery91able]

@VideoMask93 but true!!!



[VideoMask93]

@mistery91able Which makes it all the more ingenious.

[mistery91able]

@VideoMask93 dude stfu I am not trying to be genius I am explayning it

[mistery91able]

@VideoMask93 dude stfu I am not trying to be genius I am explayning it

[VideoMask93]

@mistery91able Hey, I'm just saying that the story behind the name is cool.

[mistery91able]

@VideoMask93 it really is tnx

[NotDarkYet123]

@mistery91able

Go ahead. indulge your fucking pride. Be that genius you want to be. lol. Explinations are insults to those who don't get it. Insult away brother! LMFAO!!!

[mistery91able]

@NotDarkYet123 I dont want to be a genius infact I am closer to retarded, but I have no idea if I am suppose to be angry at you or like your commen couse I have no idea what it says

[VideoMask93]

@mistery91able Basically, he's saying that by explaining to me why Diamond Head named themselves that, you're insulting my intelligence. I took no insult, and never have taken insult to an honest explanation.

[ilikeseat]

el solo de guitarra es como ir en una caida libre a los abismos del infierno.

the guitar solo it's like a free fall to the abyss of hell.

[infinitsadness2]

27?... 27 years old? am I nice?

[edge1andre]

What means "27 every one was nice,"??

[loonie26]

@edge1andre, In the year, "27" or maybe an age.

[TheSkipjack95]

@edge1andre Wikipidea (i know.....) says that it's the number of people that the man killed.

[edge1andre]

@TheSkipjack95 After 2 weeks... Thank you :D

[Nameless666Maggot]

MissHannaMinx in the suggestions.... Could this be a sign???? o:

Also fucking sweet song.

[littledrummerofDEATH]

This song and Heaven and hell are the heaviest Metal songs ever.

[emilw1997]

the Metallica version is better!

[sniperguy91]

@emilw1997 lolno

[ThyREALDevilmouse]

@BrandonXavier95

I'm not 100%, but I assume it's a reference to the year 1427, before the inquisitions had begun (Witch hunts and burnings of the era). The first big witch hunts began later in this year

[hockeyman1]

DamnedToChaos420

What the hell do you mean Metallica owns it ????

you cant beat the original....

[Murphdogg4]

I heard the cover years before hearing the original, Like the original way better.

[xZOMBIERITUALx]

Lol at people who say Metallicas version is better.

[Mafiaze]

@xZOMBIERITUALx of course it is bitch

[kyatzz]

@Mafiaze first of all this is the original and dude this version is better than the metallica version

[Mafiaze]

@kyatzz and second diamondhead fans like this and metallica fans like the cover more ok ??

[kingspadeklick813]

@xZOMBIERITUALx idk man, the Big 4 version was pretty BA

[Atreyufolife]

@xZOMBIERITUALx cant beat original and thats xoming from a Metallica fan :)

[AdrenalineAddict610]

@xZOMBIERITUALx Metallica's cover was decent, but nothing ever beats an original.

[McGuffin56]

@AdrenalineAddict610 true dat

[turbofritz2]

@AdrenalineAddict610 Yes. But metallica version is played in 1987. Back then metallica was rough.

I like metallicas version better than this

[Thepepi13]

@AdrenalineAddict610 Johnny Cash's Hurt begs to differ

[ozena52]

@AdrenalineAddict610 That's just not true. There are countless examples of covers being better than originals.

[mrfatski]

@ozena52 name a few cuz i dont know any, actually i know to paranoid and iron man played by Randy Rhoads (may he rest in peace) but those are the only two i can think of

[ozena52]

@mrfatski Well I don't just listen to metal, so I'm thinking along the lines of Johnny Cash's cover of 'Hurt' by Nine Inch Nails, 'Twist and Shout' by the Beatles, Jeff Buckley's version of 'Hallelujah', etc. Have a nice day man.

[TheMegamania]

@AdrenalineAddict610 this is not the original

[AdrenalineAddict610]

@TheMegamania Who wrote it then?

[TheMegamania]

@AdrenalineAddict610 i mean the first time this song came out was on theyre first album

[sedgie09]

@AdrenalineAddict610 To end this this song come out on there first album in 1980 Metallica didn't do there cover till 1984 please get your facts before commenting about music of any type for that matter.

[AdrenalineAddict610]

@sedgie09 When I said "original", I was referring to this version.

[sedgie09]

@AdrenalineAddict610 ah my bad no worries then but at lest the comment can be seen for every one to know before they comment. lol

[AdrenalineAddict610]

@sedgie09 No problem. :)

[Commandodudes]

of course you can never outdo the original, but man Metallica really added a lot to this song, both versions are certainly both entertaining and groundbreaking

[BZ123456BZ]

if i would'nt know the metallica cover i'd say this song fucking sucks hard..... stil i think the cover is 5 times better than the original

[TwistOfCain2810]

@BZ123456BZ seriously??? i couldn't disagree more

[rsreadytofall]

the metallica cover is really good, but i prefer this version

[000XaRiSGuiTaR000]

metallica's cover its better than this.. metallica made another one very good cover.. smoke on the water.

[Darkstar739]

This would make a great Doom soundtrack!!!

[DamnedToChaos420]

metallica burns this song up ... this version is good but metallica owns it

[VideoMask93]

@BrandonXavier95 I think it might refer to people he knew and killed when we went crazy.

[faunoram]

es más oscura que la versión de metallica...

pero las dos son brutales !

[ThePandoraGuy]

This Song is brütal awesome.

[poyanator]

wow... i had no idea Metallica covered this... :\

i feel like a fucking idiot

[mojototal]

@poyanator It is only natural...

[easyapex]

@SombraManx...don't tell many words...let me see a link, please ;-) ...to everyone, F... help a stupid guy, who is the original artist!!??? ... *\m/4ever**

[SombraManx]

@easyapex i wish :/ sadly megadeth havent make any cover of this masterpiece (yet)

we should ask Dave in his facebook page or twitter to make it asap xD

[login1995z5]

@SombraManx "When" kinda sounds like a mix between "am i evil" and "call of ktulu" so there you go :D

[VitalSigns1]

NWOBHM fucking rules!!! Great singing and great riffs!!! I'm going to see Diamond Head on August 30th in Pittsburgh

[me128166]

@VitalSigns1 my band gets to open for them august 19th in tempe!

[VideoMask93]

@me128166 Holy crap dude, nice!

[thisismetallica]

you mother is fuck

[mojototal]

@thisismetallica wut

[metal4eva16j]

i typed am i evil into youtube search and am i evil metallica came up before am i evil diamond head.....

i then proceded to punch a hole in my wall!

[SombraManx]

i'd love to listen a Megadeth cover of this song..

im pretty sure they will do a great job, ALMOST as good as this one, obviusly kickin' metallica's ass

[baxtaking]

@SombraManx Amen for that \m/

[237iggy]

fucking dark intro

[ejl1000]

How come this sounds different to the version on the album Am I Evil?

[skate09hardcore]

this version is horrible

[SkateRDestroY]

@skate09hardcore is the original version man....

[Ter6996]

Sonisphere knebworth 2011 First time in the UK Metallica Slayer anthrax megadeth and Diamond head doing this song together on the same stage.... Amazing

[TheBLT67]

@Ter6996 And i was there!

[bikerboygeoff]

@Ter6996 That was so great seeing that. All of them together singing this song.

[TheGoodam]

yes i am!!

[egrenius03]

Compared to Metallica this guy sounds like a crying baby

[MrAussieMiner1]

@egrenius03

Metallica are mainstream faggots.

[mattbrn]

@MrAussieMiner1 your life is miserable u suck man,your life sucks....how could you say something like that? you will never succed something that that they did....go fuck yourself

[egrenius03]

Compared to metallica this Guy sounds like a crying baby

[ddt529]

This is a raw classic no question...but Metallica refined it to perfection.

[SUSAltd]

Mars is pretty cool.

[JAB63096]

How about Knebworth this year. Big four and Diamond Head playing this song.

[CunningTF]

I've seen this live, and I've seen the big four (inclduing metallica) play this as well... my conclusion, both versions are awesome :D

[sufu5a]

@CunningTF Me too man! Sonisphere Uk?
