Metallica - Until It Sleeps: Video

[ScL3r0]

musica di merdaaaaaaa

[Cooper25000]

escuchas vosssssssssssssssss

[behindyou123456]

LOL JAMES AT 0:38

[mystro810]

this video was awesome when it came out. total 90's vibe. very Nirvana

[sidKiller75]

I love grunge...and this video remains me the one of "Heart Shaped Box", typical grunge art.......please, old Metallica, come back.

[behindyou123456]

This song sucks, I want old tallica back.

[StrangeFilmsPro]

We all want... if only Cliff still alive...

[DarkwingDuckful]

This video is freaky, plain and simple. Forget the video for Enter Sandman, the video for Until It Sleeps is easily Metallica's spookiest vid ever.

[ROSSYBYE]

Video is scaryyyy lolllzzz

[HarlequinxAristocrat]

Kirk's hair is so...short...

[swdp01]

I thimk he look silly with his hair short. It doesn't suit him at all

[kofkings]

Nah, he's hot either way.

[Rikoporci]

besides the music, what really shocks me in this clip is the clothes and collors... the guy who did it was inspired that day XD

[likemefeet]

this great hit is all because of lars...

[Unonomouse]

lol at 2:46 James look's like an angry Jimp

[BtheManFTW]

Why is this video and song so awesome?

[snakeweirdo]

I don't think they should make such an icon out of Lars Ulrich.

[LuffaSoad]

I love this video and song, Metallica has BALLS for trying something new for a change!

[cuenta66]

true! but sometimes the result isn`t very good....just listen death magnetic

[TheUltimateFailure1]

hello saad it;s me waqar!!!!!!!!!!!!

[livinglegand101]

the song is bout cancer the film clip is bout trying 2 get rid of it showing the pain n suffering u get from it "tell me y u've choosen me" should be enough its dark but it fkn kicks ass!!!!!!!!!!

[Jason11190]

its about cancer because cancer took both James' parents from him during the writing of this album

[livinglegand101]

yer ino people should just read comments on different pages 2 get the picture

[AuntieBanni]

Does snyone know what this is about? takes me back to when I was suffering clinical depression,, the panic... Affects me deeply this vid...

[Crimsonlove18]

James Hetfield wrote this song about his mother who died from cancer. He was struggling with his mother's death and was looking for a way to cope with his loss and deal with the pain. It has come to mean much more to many people, who relate to the message of general internal pain and loss and the inability to make sense or cope with it. the video is based on a painting of adam committing his first sin its also a representations of remorse for ones who feel they have sinned

[Crimsonlove18]

I understand it refers to the inevitability of fate, and how we all are "wash[ed] clean" and face death in the same delicate state of spirit, being that we are so afraid. "Until it sleeps," you feel extreme anguish of so much left undone, so much done incorrectly that we strive to correct, though nothing is ever as good as we want it to really be. "No more" can we be hurt once we've passed on to the other side. To me,

[KillRideMasterAnd]

cancer... James Hetfield's ( the singer) mom died from cancer.. so thats basically what its about

[askura90]

great, I see great Installation art(?) in that vid

[scottishcello27]

0:55 = reference to The Silver Chair in the Chronicles of Narnia?

[Polaris1212]

is anyone else scared to death of that donkey man creature thing at 2:05

[Destroyer858]

lars is a drag queen

[haolepinokidz]

of course they have to have Jason playing in the dirt!!!!!!!!

[TheIllusoryBand]

I love this song its really emotional

[TaxidermyTime]

@TheIllusoryBand Emo kids arent supposed to listen to Metallica.

[TheIllusoryBand]

fuck you man im not emo the song is emotional dumb ass

[NejiHyugaisthebest]

its not emo dumbass

[Metallideth94]

this is weirder than the schism-tool video, check that out and then watch this again, holy fuck

[minderaser1000]

marzo 14 en puerto rico!!!!

[25Rush2112]

his mother was also an opera singer.

[juankazul3]

buen video aun que comercial

[voiceoflogic1107]

Actually James's mother and father both died of cancer prior to the album Load, and at the time James had a pretty bad alcohol problem, so this song (as I interpret it) is about James wanting to rid the pain caused by the death of his parents and by alcoholism. Great song, fantastic video, gotta love Metallica.

[Lotrcollector2]

Actually his mother died when he was a teenager, but other than that your right.

And I agree 100 %

[666CrazyCory]

i think u got a point

[DarkwingDuckful]

You pretty much nailed it. James' alcohol addiction may have orginated as a result of the untimely death of his parents.

[Madcrank123]

hhis dad left at a young age and his mother died when he was sixteen

[DarkwingDuckful]

What I ment to say was the death of solely his mother alone led to his alcohol addiction.

[DARKLORDSATAN]

this is one of their best videos ever

[valles666]

yah but it looks like a marilyn manson video lol it dont fit them but non the less its a good video and a good song

[10thmaggot]

The frog = pope, the feces covered man = blast phamies, the gold tailed lady = lu­cifer's serpent, tree person = wiccan life force.

[StrangeFilmsPro]

I like Metallica but... this video... TT'S SO EMO!!!! It's like a "vein-cutter" video... I like the song... but not the video...

[10thmaggot]

what does "Emo" got to do with James making a song about his Mom dying and what he went through at the time. if you notice in the video there holding James and watching him until it sleeps which means until his Mom Dies

[redgibson1]

true. but an unlooked fact about most metal or rock songs is that the artists take all kinds of emotion including depression, sadness, hopelessness and things like that and interperet them musically in different ways. ie. fade to black, sanatarium, to live is to die, and definately (one of my favs) DYERS EVE. they dont sound emo, but the emotions/content are somewhat paralleled.

[MadMudProductions]

Metallica ROCKS

from Portugal

[MagneticXWolfhog]

Metallica #1

[bigbang651]

forever

[pawiis483]

and what's the difference if it's a boy or a girl?

it's a boy because he shows his chest and has no bubs

[10thmaggot]

LOL bubs? you mean boobs

[goodbrit666]

Is the person covered in gold that first appears @ 0:56 is that a boy or a girl

[Samuelsf21]

muito fodaaa!!!

[AlePresz]

Matallica is the best band ever .....

[pofote]

La mejor banda de todos los tiempos. Fantástico el video. Fantástica la canción.

[millec60]

quite possibly best video of all time

[HaloHusky]

agreed :D

[nathanthebassist1]

best song on load, well except for king nothing

[10thmaggot]

try Mama Said and Cure dude those songs own Load

[zZJAKASSZz]

this song was dedicated to james dad

[black666TTT]

mom not dad

[DEND13]

wasn't it both?

[black666TTT]

no i read something about it

[DEND13]

oh ok

[tranceliquido]

This was normal imaginery on this century.

[Valcrow45]

What the hell is the pig looking thing holding the dude?

[tranceliquido]

Valcrow45, most of this video imaginary is taken from early renaissance painting, like Cranach the Older, Hieronymus Bosch and other dutch and flemish renaissance painters.

[arkee71]

@tranceliquido like van dyck posssibly? not sure?

[METALLICA2434]

METALLICA is the best band ever. enough said

[galleti4ever]

dude metallica are awesome but videoclip naaah

[dravenxlt]

Why cant people just agree that metallica is a great band with great music. these days a person cant get a haircut without being labelled "A Sellout". Get over it, you would give up anything to be on stage playing to the sellout crowds that these "sellouts" do.

[TheMissNightingale]

Love this song and the video as well!

Adam&Eve are there- I love it.

I don't find this video disturbing- I think it fits the song perfectly.

[musatyger]

marzo 2010 guatemala estar metallica

[FernAveEnt]

sorry puiulambia and the others brainwashed still thinking metallica is cool and defending them. you should really do your homework on these guys, seriously. you'll find out how much they've effected your life negatively. in my time, i've seen them live and own all their cd's w/ exception to death magnetic (b/c it's crap) i was a bigger fan than ALL of you, then you find out the truth. it's all in this supposed "work of art" if that's what some consider this, wow. do your homework, then talk

[FernAveEnt]

11 total live shows, btw. their live act was great until they got rid of Jason. now, james can't sing worth a damn, and lars is showing how bad he is in reality. buyah

[manballs12]

its made about his dad and mom dieing from cancer but still has that heavy metal/rock to it

[LuckyKill]

wow, this is really a great video..it reminds me of mayrlin manson's videos but this seems to have meaning behond what is shown. I would also like to say that I think that metallica kicks ass, but BLS in my opinon is better by far.

[c0st1nha]

This is one of the many songs made in memory of his mother.

[xx13moons]

I don't know what the song is about - it sounds like addiction, dealing with "demons," memories, etc. But the visual theme is obvious; the myths of Christianity; the fall of Adam, redemption, the suffering of Christ, etc.. the iconography is apparent; the tree, the fruit, the snake, etc.. yeah

[FernAveEnt]

the video is an ode to beelzabozo...

and it's kind of sad to see grown men doing all that bad emo acting. what's with the constant face grabbing? and smothering yourself in poop? this is terrible. i'm done with metallica now...

[dopex89]

it's called a director's decision... don't be so judgemental, please :)

[puiulamiba]

in not an ode to beelzabozo... is a work of art about those moments when you lose your faith in god, about misery and hopeless souls. very deep video.

[UnjustifiedMetalBand]

This song is from both James's mother and father. They both died of cancer.

[SCARFACE445566]

i heraed it was his father who was dealing with cancer!!

[Maximos11195]

FUNNY VIDEO awesome song

[Rabje1234]

i luv the song, but this is the first time i watch the video.

one word: OMG

[mdf3n1x7]

thats actually 3 words :)

[Rabje1234]

lol i know, but i already posted the comment before i realized that xD

[Cometawa]

omg kirk is so sexy =D

[tzelladelta]

HOW OLD R U? 11?

[makboy101]

i love da song, but the video scared da hell out of me

[1upinya]

the song is about james brother having cancer

[drummingdean15]

his mother

[SCARFACE445566]

this guy probaly 10

[drummingdean15]

ano lol

[drummingdean15]

his father left at a young age and his mother died at the age 15 16 the song mama said for his mother

[jnsbeyer]

god this song is great. the lyrics and everything

[johndolanvincent]

this video is totally 90s, i mean it in an objective way, neither good nor bad (I personally like it very much), look at zombie by cranberries or else charlie big potato by Skunk Anansie, or ven ebreathe by prodigy, not to mention Angry Chair by Alice in Chains, cause maybe I'm moving out of the point...

[skittlezlove07]

I love how most ppl dont know the meaning of the video!

[1upinya]

the song is about james brother dealing with cancer....

[cheatguru2173]

this is pretty much the weirdest metallica video.....but i LOVE IT

[SCARFACE445566]

One of the best vids ever,METALLICA FOREVER

[skatesftw]

damn great vid.

[OzzyTheHamster]

I thought the art pieces in this videos were based on artworks of an dutch artist.. Does anybody know who?

[carneyfex]

Hieronymus Bosch

[joeysnintendo]

Creepy video but I freakin love this song METALLICA FOREVER!!!

[GHeroandRScape]

well i think teh vid is cool they dont even look much like their selfs but still cool

[aeropb]

wow this video sucks. too bad its associated with one of my favorite songs.

[kirk45hammett]

Isn't this song about James's dad dying of cancer? That's what I've heard, also it makes sense as far as the lyrics go.

[Bfmv4Life11]

yeah it is he said it in an interview

[d3athcast3r82]

Kirk had an excuse to wear makeup...lol just kidding this was an excellent video

[thiagonper1]

I'm a fan of Metallica and this song and the video are fantastic, perfect combination!

James Hetfield conveys emotion in this music that to me is the best music video of Metallica.

And this music video came to the history of music!

[deuce2469]

u guys do kno tht samuel bayer the director of this music video is indeed directing the new nightmare on elm street remake

[vinix23]

gotta love the "scream n shout!!!!"

[Maltaskin]

i love this song.i never understood why people started to bash Metallica when LOAD came out....even their covers are better than the originals

[Lyubenov11]

@ Headbanger9000  This is when I become a fan of Metallica

[Headbanger9000]

This is when i began to lose respect for Metallica

[AnthonyDark]

@Headbanger9000 Newsflash nobody gives a fuck!

[Headbanger9000]

Hey news flash buddy nobody gives a fuck that u dont give a fuck! So go back to listining to St. Anger and Load of Shit while i listin MOP and Ride the Lightning cause im entitled to my opinion faggot

[AnthonyDark]

@Headbanger9000 Actually seeing as people have obviously clicked this video in order to watch it i think it's safe to say nobody wants to see a prick like you slating Metallica, there's enough fucking jackass cunts like you all over youtube as it is. You're oppinion means nothing to nobody because you are exactly that... NOBODY so get fucked bitch! Also you show your absolute intelligence by calling me a faggot, congratulations you're a retard!!!

[Headbanger9000]

And you show your intelligence by calling me a jackass cunt and a prick so right back at ya you stupid fuck, your a hypocryte and your fuckin stupid so your argument makes no sense. Im sorry but i debate with intelligent people, not fuck tards like you.

[Met6661982]

yeah look at the views. Obviously about 440,000 others dissagree with Headbanger9000

[RatedRKOEdgeheads]

what about listening to all of those like i do Metallica as always been awesome

[Headbanger9000]

Dont get me wrong dude I loove Metallica but IMHO i think this is where they started to lose it. Everyone experiments w/ different things which is cool, but they sold out bad here. Death Magnetic is a sign of them comming back. But people like AnthonyDark over here want to start stupid ass arguments w/ me because of how i feel abt this album

[RatedRKOEdgeheads]

well thats your opinion i have no prob with it but for me metallica has always been one of the best

but i think its obvious the "old" metallica was the best

[midahai]

OMG !How you`re right.... Sry for my bad english, but i`m from Romania, and i`m a little old. I am born in 1974.

[Headbanger9000]

Kerry King said himself that Metallica were a sinking ship, EVERYONE in the REAL metal community knew that. The only people who dont are the crazy Metallica fenattics... All im saying is that they went under w/ these albums. Slayer didnt do anything like this because they know how to keep it real, Metallica didnt at this time they changed their style to appeal to the mainstream and if u like this thats awesome, I love metallica I just prefer 80's not 90's Selloutica

[scufitaverde]

yeah your totaly right i for example like all genres of rock and i like all metallica albums except st anger but of course 80's albums were te great that's wy they play the old songs in concerts nowadays

[canadianman94]

change of image doesn't always equate to selling out, maybe thats how they always wanted it, just because you dont like ti doesn't mean thats not hot they like it

[popcornhorn]

This video always creeped me out.

[MrDiegoBass]

Essa musica é muito boa.

Não sei porque a maioria das pessoas não gostam do album load.

[jospanik]

why do they have "Jesus" on the video clip .... help pls? BTW the Song rules the Band Rules MetallicA Rules the World!!!

[Valcrow45]

I love the song i listen too it everyday and i think it has too do with cancer

[crazyfucker2]

yeah u got it, its about his moms cancer and i think some bout his dad or something but fer sure the cancer part

[emo0908]

this video freaks out but is very very cool...!!

[xxx546522]

why are larses nips peirced

[crazyfucker2]

because they can be ;)

[Valcrow45]

thanks :) i subscribed too ya :)

[valehathar]

very fag. metallica 1986 r.i.p.

[zryjkacapa]

die. now.

[masterpofyou]

disturbing but awsome, looks like what i dream about just without all the titties

[fatutch]

This is disturbing.... Disturbingly GOOD!

[livinglegand101]

the bass is so clear in this song its awsum

[XcorpioChiri]

porke metallica saco canciones como estas?? debio haber seguido por la senda del Thrash, si kisiera escuxar canciones asi escuxaria esos grupos emos, pero soy Thrasher y me encanta el Thrash, por lo tanto no Poptallica sino MetallicA

[logalog4236]

This song is about Jame's mother's cancer right?

It's very creepy, but I like it. One of the good songs from Load. =)

[kingappia]

maybe one of the best metallica's song....and the S&M version it's fantastic

[letekro]

One of the best videos ever!

[juanri21c]

colombia los espera!!!!!!

[slayerizedjh]

No sabes como los envidio. Soy de Ecuador y talvez vaya por alla.

[wiiman250]

This is probably one of the creepiest things I've ever seen in my life. Creepy is a good thing.

[joxomoxo]

best song on Load!

[NadDinky]

I wish i was older than 5 when this video came out.... :)

[JoezVendetta]

Anyone know what this song is about?

[PsaikiMai]

It's about cancer. The vocalist's parents died because they didn't take the medical treatment (They were catholics and prefered to obey God's wish...). So the song is all about human suffering and religion, and the videoclip's based on Hieronymus Bosch's paintings... At least that's what I've read. (sorry for my bad English)

[deumevet]

bueno yo te entendi jaja pero no se los girisXD

[ZackXJ]

but gods wish isnt that we dont seek help from science. science is a gift from god, that might be a catholic thing, but if you read the bible, no where in there does it say dont get medical treatment, because its not gods wish, no where.

[rammie656]

Finally one who admitts it...

[rammie656]

Wrong that's and different song...

[gabrizita]

James is sexy!! :]

[luchoastrozombie]

Metallica: the look that inspire EMO?

(I'm kidding BTW, before you flame me)

[zeroxzzz]

his mom and dad had cancer and died right before the load album his dad died

[kisdy]

Inspierd themselves too much in Losing My Religion from REM

[domshar7]

james hetfields mother had cancer when he was younger, but his family refuesed treatment because they were science christian or something like that

[unrealkingdom]

pretty crazy video...

[corbinftl]

im prettty sure we would know if hetfield wouldve had cancer

[finallife6]

its about cancer

[xXRoflmeowXx]

Yea this song was about Cancer because Hetfields Mother caught it but also i think Hetfield had cancer (listen 2 lyrics it makes sense) but also Dyers Eve is about hetfields parents, buit "Until It Sleeps" is about Cancer.

[luisgalvn]

yeah so is mama said is about his mom dieing

[Nikamoon]

looks like one of them marilyn manson videos...

[matthaiush]

I think it's about cancer? 'tell me why you've chosen me?' etc

[yamahamoto250]

This song makes me think about my alcohol addiction

[locmike21]

i dont understand this video can someone explain it

It's about Bosch's paintings
