[TheFireflyGuy]

Sonisphere 2009 was AWESOME!!! whos with me? :D

[redhard16]

whène i listen this i forget all the world

[Georgeishere100]

wow even better when blazed

[tommyboi9]

why are there justin beiber fans commenting this video?

[freebird1974]

@tommyboi9 No the question should be "Why is justin bieber fan commenting on any metal videos. I've seen them on quite a few. Them pussy little bitches need to get lost and let the REAL metal fans comment

[tommyboi9]

@freebird1974 ye i know

i mean there not exactly treading familiar ground

[playermartin286]

Great

[burnthermit]

what a bunch of crap

[dieselemt]

Anyway u slice it, this song is amazing and will never get old

[surfexp]

comment removed by Chuck Norris

[moshtastic1993]

The crowd that day were fucking amazing!

[MrRokkiKukko]

James sings great!

[Leveer13]

Kirk Hammett with a Les Paul. Never thought I would see that.

[ipnhesbro]

@Leveer13 He had in all the death magnetic tour :O alwsays with this song :o Check Fade to black live nimes 2009

[ajax2610]

@samgee2007 GTFO METALLICA VIDS! :D

[andrewds98]

@samgee2007 yea dont comment that on metallica vids or everybodys gonna give u crap about it y diddnt u say it on a different vid

[jeevsrocks]

@samgee2007 you are mentally retarted. this is a metallica vid. go wipe your ballsack on a different vid, not metallica. Metallica kicks ass

[edzdeman]

Sonisphere 2009 was the best line up ever in my opinion

Metallica , Machine Head , Lamb of God , Avenged Sevenfold (The last one before the rev died) , Bullet for my Valentine , Anthrax , Mastodon , it was perfect !

[jeevsrocks]

@edzdeman don't forget alice in chains.

[gaisar80]

Robert Trujillo is the best element that this band need!!

[ajax2610]

I love the big 4, but only metallica can write songs such as soft and brilliant as this. imagine Slayer doing this? Coz i cant.

[25536467]

the original was much much better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[doomcrue87]

Damn 20 years later and Kirks Les Paul still sounds great.

[Jonas95dt]

1 moron dislikes

[25536467]

@Jonas95dt he must be supportin greenday!

[Jonas95dt]

@25536467 yes he is hehe:D

[ipnhesbro]

@25536467 What a fagg ( but i do like the nimes verison more ) ^^

[25536467]

@ipnhesbro MOTHER FUCKER

[bookworm1138]

i know everyone hates metallica and says they suck, but the live versions of fade to black from '95 onward really brings out the bleak meaning of the lyrics of this song (which is why i associate with this more than 'master of puppets', 'god hates us all', 'last in the line' or 'the trooper' or whatever songs you say are "good")

[chavkiller1035]

@bookworm1138

Everyone Hates Metallica?! What Fucking planet you from mate?

[donmestrinho]

Metallica has NAILED the "Test of Time"

[taboo79ley]

i was listening megadeth, anthrax and slayer b4 metallica, and the other 3 are heaviest than this crap

[chavkiller1035]

@taboo79ley

Yes you asshole, most of the other 3 are heavier yes, but could they write such a beautiful song such as this? I dont think so. I listen to all of the "Big Four" they're all amazing but all have their own styles, its not all about heavyness.

[sdbassplayer]

@taboo79ley Your a motherfucking justin bieber cock sucker. and besides, metallica's a different kind of metal. a waay better one.

[shrimpy20]

best performance of sonisphere knebworth 2009

[GJRM18]

The 1 person that disliked this video was justin bieber

[LJVC91]

@GJRM18 Maybe Dave Mustaine...

[bigcatroberts]

I think the one person that disliked this slipped off the thumbs up

[TheFireflyGuy]

People say rock music is about getting recked all the time and doing hard drugs, well yes some of the greatest rock bands do that but rock is about PLAYING FROM YOUR FUCKING HEART! Thats what Metallica do and thats why theyre so fucking awesome!

[donSparda]

@TheFireflyGuy

nicely made point, Rock and Metal=ambition, soul and heart, Rap=a computer, ability to talk fast and a short vocabulary consisting of dumb words where bitch, fuck, rape, shoot are the most used words.

[EvilPixiProductions]

were these guys on tour with linkin park at this time

[woob1012]

@EvilPixiProductions yeah they were

[metallicafan003]

@AllThatRemainsScape GOOD IDEA!! and give JB more views? don't think so.

[xTheStifflers]

@AllThatRemainsScape Grow up man, your comment is more annoying then every Justin Bieber song.

[panos3132]

@AllThatRemainsScape WHY THE FCK YOU CARE ABOUT JB???listen to that masterpiece and shut up please

[calmy120]

lol 235 likes and 1 dislikes...235-Metallica fans 1-JB

[downikos]

METALLICA..........best song ever.......

[SeekandDewhiplash]

This performence wins, becuz earlier in this festival the Rev from Avenged Sevenfold played live for the last time.

[winstonschannel]

Do you feel it?..

[getsome9256]

orion is best song ever

[Metalfish14]

By far one of the best songs ever written and produced from one of the best bands ever to live. \m/

[TheFireflyGuy]

I was at this gig and if you think this looks like an awesome performance......well it was beyond awesome, best gig of my life :)

[winstonschannel]

@TheFireflyGuy definitely, fucking insane vibe at that show! 

[KBno14]

after this, my new fave metallica song

[mistercrull10]

Lovely solo. Although, i wish Kirk would lose a bit of the wah-wah, i think it hides his skill.

[ozkar0209]

They're gods of metal

[winstonschannel]

wow, memories, that was f***ing amazing!!

[metalgeorge90]

BEST LIVE EVER!!!!!

[HeRaLd007]

i just hope they dont play their shitty new songs when i see them

stick to the old stuff pls

[braddudeguy]

@HeRaLd007 What song on Death Magnetic is shitty?!?! Those songs are amazing!

[dudiaz]

@HeRaLd007

They will play their best songs - which are mostly on RTL and MOP - and perhaps a very good song like Cyanide or All Nightmare Long. But songs like master of puppets, fade to black, creeping death, for whom the bell tolls, and you name it, will always be played.

[HeRaLd007]

@dudiaz thx man

i would hate going to a concert and listening to frantic

[dudiaz]

@HeRaLd007

Hahhahaha so would I. From what I've heard, they barely play songs on the last four albums, with exceptions like Fuel, or the Outlaw Torn or something.

[muppetman666]

@dudiaz they played alot of DM stuff then it was on the DM tour but apart from fuel nothing from load,reload or st anger gets played any more

[1992Paul]

why didn't they record the first sonisphere in nijmegen (holland) instead of this one...

[maiden06660]

metallica and iron maiden should combine to form one band

[loskfes]

colombian flags ? wooooooooooh !!! colombian people were there ( i´m colombian)

[TheGreenIsGod]

My fucking idols.

[caspertje134]

youtube downloader!

[hecknot14]

when kirk played the solo it absolutely pentrated my heart and ripped it in peaces

[jeroenvroom]

no word can describe the feeling a song like this brings to ppl for me is everlasting peace in my self . metallica 4 LIFE

[samdarcy93]

this was so amazing to watch, just such a sick band to watch, songs like this just standing in awe, watching kirk shred like mental !

[GarbagemanRogue]

im going to this in greece on 24/6/2010!!!!! EPIC!!

[criley2254]

I was right at the front also :D best live rendition of any song performed by any group ever!!! every note played to absolute perfection and just yea ... as close to perfection as can be imao!! METALLICA 4EVA!!! \m/ \m/

[simospeace]

Ulrich sould use a metronome....or is it just me ????

[GuitarHewer]

@simospeace Ulrich should be replaced with a metronome lol

[subslaytanic]

@simospeace

Or Metallica could have gotten a decent drummer in the 80s.

[getthepoooffmybum]

Shit Kirk fucking NAILED both solos!

[joshturbill]

kirk hammett plated an absolute stormer at sonisphere!!!!  :) x

[hershysquirts187]

not to many bands can touch metallica live. just awsome.

[MindlessTornado]

Things not what they used to be,

Missing one inside of me,

Deathly lost, this can't be real,

Can't stand this hell I feel..!!!

[MindlessTornado]

Things not what they used to be,

Missing one inside of me,

Deathly lost, this can't be real,

Can't stand this hell I feel..!!!

[silmarie24]

czekam na czerwiec Metallica rulez :)

[kempo117]

this song fukkin rocks i definately prefer this version to the studio version METALLICA 4EVA

[zperic1]

i don't have an idea at all why is metallica playing together with antrax s....r and megadeth in sofia,metallica is totaly higher level than those pricks...

[Azhardinio]

awesome just awesome

[Steven36000]

Beautiful!

When you know that this song was written by a man who hasn't got his 20 years old ....

[Morinul]

METALLICA!!!!!!

[mistercrull10]

Bands like Metallica are amazing, for one simple reason.

This song was released in 1984. I've probably listened to this song at least once a day since i first bought Ride The Lightning, and every time i hear it, or see them play it, it still feels fresh and new.

It's one thing to write an awesome song, it's something else to keep that song alive for a quarter of century.

[Eestlaneonvisa]

@mistercrull10 There's a name for that. Its called a legend. Legends dont die

[xoom93yt]

@mistercrull10 Agreed! This is something today's music will never accomplish!

[calum07]

This is the best song of all time! keep it up metallica.

[FadeToBlack789]

@DisciplesOfAlliance/@calmy120­. agreed with the both of you. Life is amazing and when stress comes around, just chill for a while and itll pass.

[manilapower]

I was there, I hope they play this song next week at Bogota. The thing I like the most in the UK, is that people sing the guitar solos, really cool

[runescapeundercover]

DO YOU FEEL LIKE I DO? LOL

[StrangeStickMovies]

4:25 is amazing; the crowd was so pumped up we were all humming the notes! Good memories!

[gilgel55]

lars' playing just doesnt sound good at this concert. normally hes aright but it kinda bugs me on this recording of sonosphere. hes trying to complicate it too much with his fills etc. its meant to be a ballady type thing and doesnt require it. oh well, just my opinion. dont hate me tho. im a huge metallica fan and lars inspired me to pick up drums just not a fan of this concert... :)

[gian729]

this song is soooooo fucking sick!!!

[SHIFTYgeorge]

the intro to this song makes me miss a heartbeat, sooo amazzzing

[mrkrobo]

James need to smoke some Malboro Red

[DisciplesOfAlliance]

Why would he do that, so he can get to where he is out of breath after every word.......smoking is dumb!

[Polynoma]

Smoking is a good way to relax and get rid of stress.

[DisciplesOfAlliance]

I don't smoke and i relax just by chilling out, and i have no stress i absolutely love life, smoking is just not smart..

[calmy120]

@DisciplesOfAlliance yes right,smoking is not good for stress,better go to the massage,or just chil out.

[DisciplesOfAlliance]

Thank you for agreeing.

[RevisedTV]

@DisciplesOfAlliance using cigarettes or drugs or alcohol as an excuse for problems are dumb

[Steve24387169]

Good for you, no one cares.

[DisciplesOfAlliance]

@Steve24387169 Actually people do care or that post wouldn't have 47 thumbs up,

Maybe smoking has caused you to go retarded but can you not read? Now go smoke another cig therefore shortening your life and your breath, just because you think it looks cool....

[wildbore84]

please be at download festival this year

please please please!

[sanctuaryfromthelaw9]

@wildbore84 I've got sonisphere tickets. Come back 2 sonisphere!

[hecknot14]

acdc is going to download this year

[PrimaIScream]

@wildbore84 Headliners have already been announced for Download + Sonisphere, looks like the UK miss out on the big 4 tour atm.

[wildbore84]

@PrimaIScream ayye, they wasn't a week ago thou. i'm sooo disappointed :(( which u recon is better this year???

[PrimaIScream]

@wildbore84 Sonisphere has actual metal, with exception of Megadeth Download doesn't. I'll regret missing Megadeth again but Fear Factory, Slayer, maiden and Rammstein are going to be awesome.

[wildbore84]

@PrimaIScream i agree, its much more rock, classic, punk this year. i'm more into that but i haven't seen rammstein or maiden or alice yet and i really want to. have to wait to see more of the line up this year yet i think. billy idol thou :OOO woowz

[son0gostas]

i want jame's guitar!

not another same guitar but HIS GUITAR :P

[sdwth]

Legendary...
