Metallica - That Was Just Your Life (Demo)

[halofreak158]

Why didn't they go with these lyrics? :(

[MrIms74]

Actually Jump in the fire starts on F#, this tune is in E. Metallica lives of old merits. They haven done anything good for at least 15 years...

[gmctruck68]

who's the religious douche's that disliked this, i hate you

[Wiifan15]

how can anyone say this sounds better than the album version? i mean its ok, but the album version is so energetic and has so much emotion. this one is a little blah.

[thelegendoflink52]

@Wiifan15 True, but at least it doesn't clip.

[screechingcoxy]

quality! metallica as they would sound if they played your local pub

[ben10sk8r]

this sounds like it could be straight off master of puppets.....

[redwar85]

good!!

[Albigatnz]

Sounds better than the real one not clipping...

[Arnold114]

I love this riff with the double thing you know more riff like that!!

[DrZen007]

LIKE A PUZZLE, WITH MISSING PIECES

AND A BOX THAT'S THROWN AWAY!!!!!

Hahahaha

\m/

[DrZen007]

not bad

bit slow

compared to album and defs compared to live show

but yeh

still good

\m/

[monkeytraceur]

''HI GUY'' ; ]

[phreestylesk8r]

i like the solo

[multispace100]

o que buena rola METALLICA & MEXICO 4EVER

[EIOURUZ]

solo is better

[Musipan94]

this solo has less wah. This is a proof that Metallica is still alive...

[SillyHatVideos]

Certain parts of the demos are better then the album, but overall i'd say the album is better, except for the whole Loudness thing..

[dval722]

i like the album version better

[thememoryremains100]

these dm demos are crap...so glad they were whipped into shape by rubin/tallica

[SolidSnake587]

This Demo is so badass... *.*

[Blacky2000x]

what else is in the coffin box?

[SSSoM3]

solo is better then orginal?

[iceheadstudios]

It's retarded how the demos have better sound quality than the actual album, which is compressed to hell and back. :(

[Bear1053]

amazing how the lyrics changed........

[emorockerownage]

@Bear1053 ik im glad they went with the lyrics that they did...

[AJFA23]

0:33 Sanitarium!!

[bloodreep]

this is awesome...

[EpsilonX]

demo version is much better

[Zargonite200]

Like a dream, like a beautiful dream! Never heard James sing like that, its awesome. Should of stayed that way in the album.

[Docteur666]

Reminds me of Garage days in 87

[heraclesss]

Great album !!! thanks for this piece of gold ;)

[jcmmnx]

"like a puzzle with missing pieces and the box is thrown awayyyyy" FTW

[Charization]

James sounds a lot better here. Hope he has this voice on the next record.

[oiram101]

@Charization

thats cause the song is down tuned

[CkY3221]

the riff sounds like Jump In the Fire and the lyrics are similar to Battery so FUCK whoever says that DM sucks

[dumapies]

@CkY3221

it does suck...because Rick Rubin (the producer) totally fucked it up...the Demo's are amazing but the actual album is fucked up

[MetallicaRules1001]

@CkY3221 Exactly what i say, except a faster version of JITF.

[Darkit2099]

@MetallicaRules1001 this and jump in the fire have no similarities. The main riff of jump in the fire is G, Bb, C, D, F, D, C, Bb, G followed by C then Bb (or B then A--been a while since I heard it). The main riff to this is E (triplet) A, Bb, E, Bb, A, (repeated three times then ends with) A, G, A, Bb, A, G, F#, F, E. I can understand the tempo being similar at points, but same riff-- no. Not close. If they are, then ring around the rosie sounds like Raining Blood

[Darkit2099]

@CkY3221 Honestly the whole progression reminds me of Blackened. Actually if you listen to the January 10th Minneapolis performance back in 2000 (or any 2000 performance of the song) they play the rhythm part of the harmony section of that Was Just your life (a whole 7 years before the song was written) as the backing for the solo during Blackened. Check it out. DM was still fucking awesome, everybody control your hate and make your words sweet--you might have to eat em

[KingOfParrots]

@CkY3221 Not saying that the albums sucks, but that didn't make any sense at all... The riff is nothing like jump in the fire, and I can't really tell any similarity to battery with the lyrics? :S

[computergasm]

@CkY3221 I was thinking the other day - how much do the lyrics of All Nightmare Long sound like the lyrics to Damage, Inc. ??? ITS SO BRUTAL!

[therealaustinjenkins]

how did u get this version?

[HetfieldIsGod92]

from the CD "Demo Magnetic". It's in the Coffin Box

[ManBearPig2177]

This is the only track I cared for on Death Magnetic. Sounds like old Metallica.

[FeelTheFight]

What about Judas kiss?

[yoshiwan2]

All Nightmare Long is rather alike. But I agree with you.

[NASCAR90]

( have a good ear for Hard Rock and Heavy Metal my view on this that vocals were rushed and forced on the studio version this sounds like the old Metallica from the Jutice and Black Albums

[dyliboy2]

[LeKryon]

5:55 to 6:15 is epic. I downloaded this video just because the same part on the album is not nearly as good.

[DanDantheMusiqueMan]

I don't know about anyone else . . . but I like the solo in this version better than the studio version. But that's just me.

[UNDEFEATEDIDENTITY]

cool

[Wh1teL1ghtinn]

the lyrics are funny.

Puzzle Pieces!

Really great! Has some raw feeling to it. And I love the "talking" singin he does.

[jor26ge]

this version is better

[ps3t]

I agree. I also like B,B&S demo version better than the one on the album.

[thememoryremains100]

this is great...better than everything else

[dbzsony]

The quality sounds like Justice on this demo.

[Bathory1988]

best opening since Blackened

[sebamiester]

demo sucks compared to normal...atleast it sounds like..

[xxxEmoBiGirlxxx]

Learned All The Lyrics In Just One Night

<3

[usedbandage9]

This song is sooo addicting. Ontop of that, it has amazingly good guitar. The solo is perfect.

[hcmaniac15]

This song is better than the original song.

[LoSeRrOcKiNoN]

this song is so badass. I saw them in moline january 18th 2009. this was the opener. lol. Like a dream, a BEAUTIFUL dream.

[Afrosiris]

sounds like james licks.. =S

[maskeiron]

like a dream, a miracle dream... haha im dying here.. lyrics really sucks... but the song on the album is great!!

Metallica!!! 1981-forever

[madrocker123]

much worse. metallica sure no wt they doin!

[MWTV1]

the lyrics are completly different, they suck on this!

[YellowCake24]

Yea, this sounds a ton better than the album version...

[Afrosiris]

did james do the solo on this version?

[hknux5112]

i love the "yeeah" he does...

[TheBlackPriest]

drums sound almost better here than on the actual record..

[FireBirdTheBand]

pritty kool :)

[chocosparx]

wow, the lyrics on the 'i blind my eyes and try and force it.....' part before the solo are sooo much better on the real thing!

[matheus172]

Metallica fourevah!

[lucifer984]

this way sound sooo much better, like right out of the allmighty thrashy 80's :)

[Slipstarscream]

This sounds so good, metallica at its finest once again....

[MrBadder90]

this song is beatiful but i'm prefered for example "enter sandman" "Master of peppets" and other..

[BeyondTheGates87]

the intro is so much better on this...they shouldn't have taken out the bend on the clean guitar!!

[siisihqdaa]

this is better in this tuning

[chaosdisc]

I think the solo is just fine, and that you all are musically stunted.

[Kaaybeee]

The solo is MUCH fucking better.

That wah in the album version made it sound very messy

[thehandsometreestump]

i agree, why did kirk change the solo?!?!

[Kaaybeee]

Lmao i know man!

Dont you just miss his older solos, where the guitar tone was reasonably clean and real clear sounding, and he was like, going everywhere all over the guitar! Hhah especially on Kill em all, those solos are awesome!

[IronMetalMaidenLica]

Kill Em All's guitar wasn't even written by Hammett they were written by Dave Mustaine. I'm still a Metallica fan but you are right he used to be better.

[Kaaybeee]

Lmao! yeh true.

I love Mustaine, his solos are incredible, i saw 'deth live at priest feast 2 weeks ago, fucking crazy. Kirks solos on the MOP and the Justice album were amazing though, he should make his solos more clean, technical and long again!

[siisihqdaa]

ya think when 19 year old plays thrash metal solos he goes to the paper where dave have written the solos and takes it from the tab? no, example the solos what mustaine played on no life til leather doesnt sound half the same in the hammet kill em all

[AnthRulzAll]

he didn't make the solos on kill em all..

[georgio666]

Dave Mustaine wrote the solos and Kirk Hammett changed them

[madrocker123]

did he fuk he left ages ago stupid twat

[stmstm321]

metallica the best band ever ever ever

[Theguitararcher]

its slower

[jimmee671]

your mom is slower

[NFS86Carbon]

true

[stmstm321]

very nice!!

[FutureCharger21]

this song is awesome live wen i went to c them

[soadasd]

this song is simply coOl

[dmh28]

awesome

[6999999METAL6666669]

you never opened them so it passed you by

[cam1895]

To sing the lyrics to this is hard, let alone play alongside it... hetfield is god.

[ccsrock]

U r right dude ! im trying to do it ! im almost done but i think ill spend a while trying to do the part that says" i blind my eyes and try to force it all into place" HELL .. that riff is easy but very confusing to sing through

[TyRoFilms]

i saw their concert on Jan. 13, 2009 in Detroit....opened with this song with the lasers

[austinmmboy]

I saw them on the 15, in washington, did the same thing, the conrt was fucking amazing though!

[haX0r3]

i was there too. im like the coolest kid in my school now lol

[rozerang]

fuck u

this is bullshit!!!

the original is the best

[metallmia]

i love metallica and this song is one of their best songs.

i just dont understand y do people keep comparing them with megadeth

[imcoolman123]

because they started around the same time, and dave mustaine tried out for metallica and was rejected, so people wanna see if mustaine was more successful or not, but i agree they shouldn't be compared so much, they're both amazing

[ramza89SH]

mustaine was part of metallica until 1983, when he was kicked out for being a drunk. he hated metallica for that and made megadeth.

[HipHopHaterRock4ever]

i said that too.. All my friends do it too and everyone downtown at the city music shop its stupid you just have to laugh at them.

[metallmia]

ur right

thats wat am doin

[AlcohollifuckincA]

fuck i like this song the best and all nightmare long they are bad ass

i saw them play this song 12-18-08 it was bad ass!!!! 5 STARS!!!

[1337dav31337]

Hetfield is god ^^

[nikyhammett]

yeah blues kirk!!XD

[Diomenesx]

I love Kirk's Blues-Metal Solos

[C12azy13ananas]

Fuckin' Awsome!

[ugonaeaturcornbread]

LOL at "like a dream, a BEAUTIFUL DREAM!" thats not a metallica lyric!! ffs!!

[paralonlom]

All these demos are from "Demo Magnetic" CD which is inside the Coffin Box.

[monkeymtg]

The solo is the only good part

[CenturionRyan]

Audible bass, you say?

[diegolas666]

death magnetic owns this shit in every aspect.

[holydiver7190]

his vocals are much better in this, you can hear them over the guitars better

[fnixws]

Cant believe i paid $40 for the CD and these demos are not only better songs, but sound much more "real" than the CDs. And with the typical youtube sound wuality, thats saying somthing.

Where can i get the MP3s of this? :)

[clickcl0ck3d]

why the hell did you pay $40 bucks for the cd?....

[SymphonyOfDestruct99]

Maybe singapore dollar or australian dollar or brunei dollar

[maxiol77]

this riff is so similar to JUMP IN THe FIRE

[liveandletrock864]

y does this have minus 2 lol thats the first thing i noticed

[patrick1428]

Lars is the luckiest drummer on Earth to play the drums for James and Kirks killer riffs

[mrmogensen]

mostly james'.

[motleytallica]

like a tree a beatutifal tree

[mnava18]

thats dream not tree..

[metalsplash3]

i prefer the demo magnetic more than death magnetic the voice is more real

[TheMetallicatz]

some of the stuff is better, but then again some of the stuff is shit

[billjit]

Glad he got rid of the oh yeeaaaahhhhhhhh lol

fuk bob rock hail rick rubin

[bluekush623]

"Like a puzzle.. with missing pieces... and the box is thrown awayyyyyyyyyyyy"

[rvsaraiva]

YeeeeeeEEEEEEEAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!

No one can do it like Jaymz!!!

[Capco12]

Fucking badass. Shame they scrapped some of the chorus lyrics in this one though.

[LookingForMyLife]

buenisimo!!!
