Metallica - Cliff Burton and the Pancakes Story

[hamadbeast]

the song sounds better with pancakes in it!!!

[diamondback604]

PIXIES!!!

[darthnefas]

The word is fantasize, which James used in a couple of songs, but I like that story a lot and I think I'm going to have a hard time saying anything other than pancakes from now on. ha ha. It's like my friend I knew who said for Ozzy's Devil's Daughter he said Devil's Doughnut and that was that. ;)

[Razorback613]

@darthnefas You mean what he says when he doesn't say "Pancakes"? It's "Fix me!" Like a drug fix. Master of Puppets is about addiction...

[vipprimo]

@Razorback613 Really? I've been wrong twice over. lol Thanks for the assist.

[CriolloJulio]

on album version says: fixe me!

on live version on '99 season says: fix me baby

but sometimes WHAT THE HELL SAYS that saound like pancakes?

TELL ME PLEASE

[spazmoto]

Well, oftentimes James ad-libs that part in concert. If you know the lyrics to 'puppets' you should realize that the song's about cocaine. On the album he says........RAZORBLAAAAAAADE!

[Heathenatot]

@spazmoto He says FIX ME! on the album

[Livetoheadbang]

PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANCAKESSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS xD

[mrhoffame]

You know through all the tours, money, women, fame and forutne...it is the stories like this that I'm sure they will never forget! The stuff real friendships are made of. The stuff money could never buy.

[stanjiboy]

Damn now that's what I hear

R.I.P. CLIFF BURTON

[MetallicAJamyz]

they should have crash bandicoot pop up and yell"PANCAKES"

[zangazoo2007]

25 years ago the world lost a legendary bass player. Cliff Burton! The major rager! He was only in Metallica a short time, but is more iconic than anyone can imagine. Cliff made Metallica play better, he brought harmony vocals, and he brought a style of bass like no other. Often imitated, but never duplicated! Cliff you are not forgotten! \m/\m/

[joelwelch2000]

R.I.P. 25 years

[Razorback613]

@MetallicaMadMan666 Sucks for you. The rest of us will think of it as James' homage to Cliff's hilarious joke. :)
