Metallica - Overkill (London 2009)

[ZleeperZMarshall]

Hi. Does any one know what riff they are playing before overkill? What song is that from?

[AlbanianGuy]

@ZleeperZMarshall did u find out i like to know

[williamtrevormcneil]

i wish i was in a majorly successful band that got to play cover songs from another majorly successful band that played covers of my songs as well..

itd be a lot better than being one of these people that comment "X's version is FARRR better.." *cough cough* @Ulghart

[Arbiter321]

I have to say that I like the Motorhead version way more than this. James is awesome, but his vocals just don't match Lemmy's.

[SSSoM3]

love the vocals

[Ulghart]

The version or Motörhead is FAR badass....

[cliffthelightning]

A plate of food just jumped of my desk due too the heavyness.... its in shards now..

That plate must be a Lady gaga fan

[Guandy]

what does james/kirk play at the start?

[meepage332]

There were people in the crowd who didn't know this song. I kid you not. 

[melsboemusikk]

hrannigests: you'r a fucking asshole! get a life...

[timetotrash]

motorheAd piss on metallica!!!

[hrannigests]

Lars's double-bass is about as fast as my grandmas pacemaker....almost fell asleep listening to this

[moko9hoko]

@hrannigests ha better than you could do my man(:

[MultiSupahman]

@hrannigests Dude, the song is supposed the be like this..

[Gravelgutband]

@hrannigests What are you talking about? Its the same speed as on the Overkill album.

[killahsockenkerl]

motörhead's overkill is better

lemmy's voice is harder and more badass like

[cormermusic]

@killahsockenkerl agreed. Some bands jsut shouldn't be covered. And it's funny cuz this sucks and motorheads version is much better and like wise motorheads versiohn of entersandman sucks ass too .

[MephistoMun]

@killahsockenkerl totally. \m/

[papstbenni]

the bass and the vocals suck!

long live motörhead!

[gingerlad8000]

@papstbenni motorheads covvered metallica aswell it sucks, but they pay respect to each other so stop complaining and enjoy

[papstbenni]

@gingerlad8000 haha motörhead got a grammy for their "whiplash" cover, it's better than the original

[dracidus10]

@papstbenni When a band gets a Grammy for a song that isn't theirs, then there's a problem with your originality as an artist. It practically means that you're good for nothing. But it's better we already know it's Motorhead we're talking about, one of the best bands out there. Therefore, stop saying shit about the original version, both kick ass:)

[Gravelgutband]

@papstbenni I prefer the original Whiplash. But i prefer Lemmy over anybody in the world

[timuss]

I was there it was awesome!!! Lemmy ws supposed to be with them apparatntly = ( But couldn't make it i belive.

[Akryn]

@timuss

We were supposed to have this song in Newcastle, but Lemmy was ill again so they didn't even bother playing it at all for us. :(

[MetallicaTheBest1000]

The best band!!

[6sixpounder6]

its a cover of course it's not as good as the original. Still good though, go ahead, be a predictable contrarian, metallica is still a good band even if they aren't the best.

[MrRichdo]

LONG LIVE TO MOTORHEAD!!

[redmushroom92]

@MrRichdo And Metallica too !

[IIIBloodIII]

I think the reason it was slower because it was an encore.

I was there :P

Was fucking awesome.

[IchMaagBlumeen]

metallica's version of overkill sucks!

MOTÖRHEAD !!

[MasterOfKthulu]

@IchMaagBlumeen

No it kicks ass

BUt MotÖrheads version kicks more ass

[jaalacba]

well metlivedownloads

they are alwais in london!!! 24 times in london and just 2 in COLOMBIA¬¬

[theripparob]

whats the name of the jam intro son??

[SouthWestStuntMen]

@theripparob the song is an old NWOBHM tune called 'One of these Days' by a band called Trespass.

[theripparob]

@SouthWestStuntMen oohh thank you for the answer

[tallica4life1995]

what was the encore jam song?

[zedyago74]

Original Motorhead Overkill has 260bpm

But this i dont know but its slower

[aassyr1111]

\m/

[maidenslayer]

I was there!

[LeBart021]

It's not about kickin' somebody's ass you stupid fucks. It's music not football..

[92JinKazama]

Very nice, I like it.

[gazibakkal]

lemmy kick james 's ass.!!!...lemmy kilmister ownz...however,he is very old but he's rules still alive.

[curlywoodson]

bass needs to be louder an the vocals more dirty an rough!! i still love METALLICA but MOTORHEAD are my favourite!!!!

[TheRealAxelFury]

good execution, but a bit more faster, would have been better, the original version is still unbeaten.

[cheeseham15]

i was there, it was phenomenal !!

[Adamthebarsteward]

BLOODY HELL!!! I cant believe Metallica stayed perfectly still and through the whole song and still sounded spectacular!

[maganashi]

@Adamthebarsteward lol'd so hard

[maganashi]

@Adamthebarsteward Made me lol so hard.

[Zephyesa]

@Adamthebarsteward its only when a band attains true greatness, that they can do this.

[MFHCFH]

That was a killer night, Especially when MH debuted slanderous!

[TheBmxrocker91]

RESPECT LEMMY!!! YEAHHHH

[TheBmxrocker91]

doesn't rob usually play 5 strings?

[MFHCFH]

Good spotting, i just realised that, that is a 4 string :/

[jmclmets]

@TheBmxrocker91 he plays both... just changes depending on the song but yeah he usually does

[Fabcfab]

@TheBmxrocker91 He used to play a lot on 5 string-basses at his beginning with Metallica, but he has kind of got back to 4 strings recently for most of the songs that they play live. You may wanna check the "Français pour une nuit " DVD.

[jackdavis11]

compared to lemmy, james makes this sound like a punk cover of overkill

[Terminxman]

Motorhead has punk sound anyways, at least their older stuff.

[bluejeans6]

one of the cornerstones of thrash sound

[journeystarr]

Wow, a very good live version!!! kickass!

[Gittiteufel]

the fucking bass is not loud enough

[TheUnlucky101]

Dang, the entire band's on their game for this one. A+

[StevieGmaster]

James before the solo, at 3:17 "IT'S ME!" :DD

[diack8]

I WAS THERE!!!!! OH FUCK YEAH

[MajorFunk1]

So was i!

it was AMAZING

[diack8]

awesome - whereabouts were you?

i was standing- near the piis

[MajorFunk1]

standing

it depended really, i'd go forward for a bit then go back if i wanted a beer :)

[diack8]

did you see / were you near the man with the snake tattoo on the back of his head and the slayer tattoo on the side?

that dude was scary

[djsims2]

wooooooooo motorhead! this is a very good cover

[Guitargowd]

sounded like ace of spades to a point, with the drums and the leading guitar riff, the verse chords sound just like ace of spades yet, its not...sounds sick

[fillie15]

I was thinking exactly the same, the verse chords and vocals! James sounds superb on this one

[Metaleho]

Jeah it was james at the end he's amazing

[dennismartens11]

song is called "one of these days" by "Trespass" (NWOBHM)

[TimArling]

lars still can do it!! he just needs to be more motivated:P but damn:| what a awesome performance!!!!!

[78061722]

SE OYE BIEN

[titanium53]

I was there! :D it was awesome.

[djsims2]

you lucky bitch :P

[cliff451]

is this song E tuned?

[mitalca35]

it's always cool to hear james do a solo every now and then.

[piginila1]

yea James owns Kirk's whammy abusing

[Fabcfab]

@piginila1 Kirk doesn't use the whammy so much, he only used it during the St anger era & for the madly in anger tour, but not so much nowadays. He's just pulling 2 strings at a time in many of his soli, or he uses quite a lot of wha pedal. I guess that's what u meant.

[555clown666]

whats the song at 0:15?

[brutalfrankieb]

One of these days by nwobhm band Trespass

[DeathTapping]

Maybe an new song ??

No i think they play something improved

[telindius2]

hey dude can u write me which song they played before overkill?? ( i thoght the short jam thnx guys!! )

[bahalason]

Yeah! Lars nailed the doublebass!

[guitarplayer600]

@bahalason duhh cause it fuckin easy lol

[jesse17ful]

@bahalason the only songs he has the guts to double bass are the songs:

Fight Fire with Fire

[gingerlad8000]

@jesse17ful and Fade to Black

All Nightmare Long

Blackened

Broken Beat And Scarred

[jesse17ful]

@gingerlad8000 true that

[brutalfrankieb]

They play a small part of the Trespass song 'One Of These Days' before they kick into Overkill.

[Metallikatz23]

R U sure is One of these days jam?

[brutalfrankieb]

Without doubt. They played it for Trespass guitarist who was a guest of theirs.

[Metallikatz23]

cool, never eared about them. Thanks!

[GrzesMetallica]

omfg!!! Amazing performance from Lars!

[jabronie25]

About time the mixers boost the volume of Lars double bass!

[CliniQm]

"It's me" :D

3.17-3.55

4.08-4.53

Het is the motherfuckin' shredder :DDD

[v00rheed]

YES LARS!

[elcletus]

fuck! love this song!

[1337dav31337]

respect Lemmy :D

[M0t0rBreath89]

Wow such a good cover. I like when James said Lars when Lars came in then ROb when rob started to play the bass.

[Jordanfan908]

Fucking amazing they nailed this cover like i have never heard them do anything before. They are in top form. and lars nailed the double bass part. and same with kirk and the solos. this videos needs more views long live METALLICA

[scotsman1471]

LARS
