James Hetfield - Dont You Think This Outlaw Bit Has Done Got

[MrBurney12]

He should have brought the whole band

[urtismcdona13c]

Your video went viral on Leste)Dili

[principlesoflust111]

he's hot ;)

[dino4steelers]

I saw this on cmt and it was the best song and performance of the show James rocks !

[xskater589x]

So fucking gay wtf james stop being a stupid redneck and stick with metallica

[1Sifting]

ahaha bob rock sucks.

[vxxChristinaxxv]

ORGASM

[WaylonX76]

Yup, that's Bob.

[DisposableHeros423]

I'm a die hard Metallica fan and I love that they branch out to other types of music and not just stick with Metal.

[TheYeldarbinator]

Is that Bob Rock on bass guitar? :L

[brucewaechter]

have to say this is one hell of a kick ass tune

[prastareOpowiesci]

this cover is amazing ! james rock!!!

[alexuldahlofficial]

i am the table

[apocalyptica003]

Older country like this song (original) is my second favorite to metal (and subordinate genres). This is like awesome squared. Nothing like today's country, which is just light rock.

[Cheripie569]

I wanna bear his children!!! His voice sends chills up my spine EVERYTIME I HEAR IT!!!!!

[JohnnyCashfan94]

there should be more songs like this!!!!! BADASS!!!! country should make metal covers and metal should make county covers... thats whats wrong with this world, cause theres not enough of this kind of music !!!!

[alexuldahlofficial]

I AM THE TABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[amylou604]

Metal fans hate country music. Country fans hate metal But, we James Hetfield covering Waylon, and Johnny Cash covering NIN. Just goes to show you. The greats musicians love all great music.



[Death66reaper6]

@amylou604 i love both Genres. :)

[darkahnubis]

Now it's Mike Ness's turn!

[tazztower44]

didnt think i would like anything but waylon's version..quite impressed..hetfield pretty much nailed it with a twist

[Hezkorpeom]

METAL+COUNTRY= CHUCK NORRIS MUSIC

[tedwilson79]

More proof that Metallica is all JH.

[demetanne]

i should of count how many times i heard this tune, I LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE IT....the best.

[MySeasideRendezvous]

I really don't like covers, but James does them all so well. I can't help but LOVE them. =] He's AMAZING!!

[marceltherocker]

Why didn't james use that riff on death magnetic. Anyway, this mashup of metal and country is really good

[hairballhead]

james hetfield is so fucking metal

[hu4lusmc8762]

He can sing metal and COUNTRY!!!! Oh he's so talented haha. He did amazing with song. Waylen, I grew up on that shit along with Metallica hahaha

[metalnut4life]

Hetfield proves it again.. F*ckin awesome!!

[aaronstormspeake]

I think james and kirk n lars 2 for that matter are as bad ass as they come. the lulu thing w lou reed was shit. but metallica on their own is 2nd to none. sold more albums n made more $ than ANY METAL BAND OF ALL TIME. GO METALLICA N JAMES WAS JUST NAMED 46TH BEST GUITARIST OF ALL TIME

[kindofmonster666]

God damn,this is fuckin' excellent!!!James is a God!

[prevenge91]

I'd rather metallica did a country album than the shit they've just put out with lou reed.

[affrothunder93]

shit is that bob rock on the bass? does that mean this was before rob joined?

[throughTHEnever044]

@affrothunder93 no this was 2006 rob joined 2003

this isent metallica its a waylon jennings tribute thing with artists singing his songs

only james was there not members of metallica eg.lars,rob,kirk

[wwfoleyfan]

nice!

[LimaUnite]

I swear i called the Genre Out in like 96-97 for what is now , People said i don't hear it , i don't see it , Country sucks , As a metal guy what happened? IT HAPPENEND , Rebel Meets Rebel in my book is the very First Metal/Country Album that fused the two Genres finally on a big Level...

[TheMetallicaguru]

@chubbychaysa James hetfield sang that perfectly in my opinion he rules!!!

[chubbychaysa]

Someone should decapitate this fuck with one of Waylon's platinum albums. What a douche

[MrSkully99]

@chubbychaysa i think someone should decapitate you, james hetfield rocks!

[Bupiville]

Is that Bob Rock in bass?

[9875a]

@Bupiville Yes sir, it certainly is.

[caspers52]

Tabs. Want em. Anyone know where i can find em?

[cowcrap43]

RIP james

[Foted]

@cowcrap43 he isn't dead, fucktard

[skyhighmaintenance]

I never get tired of watching this video. James doing Waylon...it just doesn't get any better than this.

[neverdullboy]

I really like this video. I just try to keep it in perspective. Would Waylon sound a little odd, singing Ride the lighting? Would James Hetfield sound a little odd singing this? Yep. Right on both counts. The point of this to me, is the respect he showed by doing it in the first place. Hats off to James. Funny, I bet Waylon would have done the same for him.

[MorrellXx]

he just cant do it, no one can beat waylon

[Waylonstillthebest]

Got to love how the steel guitar fits into Hetfields version nice melding of two styles.

[pivetlord13]

who else thinks metallica as a band should do a cover?? i think it would be pretty bad ass.

[rawkgawdez]

@pivetlord13 -- they have covered plenty of songs hahaha are you crazy? or kidding? or..new? \m/

[pivetlord13]

@rawkgawdez what are YOU talking about. yes they have garage inc. full of covers. theyve also done others live.

[GregoryJohnsonJr]

@pivetlord13 NOOOOO Lars sucks....

[pivetlord13]

@GregoryJohnsonJr there are plenty of worse drummers out there...

[GerMaggot555]

@GregoryJohnsonJr lars isn´t a bad drummer he became one

[MsMetallicaFan1996]

James stole the show right out from under everybody's feet once he got up on this stage! I watched the whole concert, watched every artist perform there songs along with Hetfields set, and he was the best one out of them. Each song performed from everybody was great, Hetfields was just better.

In simple terms, HETFIELD WAS AWESOME AS USUAL!

[zwareshag]

@MsMetallicaFan1996 Everyone: normally great. Hetfield: USUALLY AWESOME! \M/

[vxxChristinaxxv]

ΚΑΒΛΑ λέω και πάλι!!! ^_^

YOU ARE THE MAN JAMES.

[killerdwarf7]

hetfield...is a frontman with grit

[empreme]

Loving Bob Rock on bass.

[bowlish45]

James Hetfield doing folk rock. My life is complete <3

[albabhoy81]

I LOVE metallica but I think it's time for Hetfield to move on. His voice just can't keep up with what metallica want and think they should be.

I'd love to see hetfield take it down a notch.

[johnwaynejohnson]

@albabhoy81 its not realy the voice, he lost his grit after throwing out his voice on the black album, he can actually sing better know its just cleaner

[zacmetalfan]

@albabhoy81 Buddy James is Metallica. Stupid fucking comment.

[aaronstormspeake]

i love james and hes an artist pure and simple he can play the hell outta any instrument bass lead rhythm keyboards drums etrc he can do it all. lars struck gold when he picked him up in the bay area then getting kirk and gettin rid of dave. i miss cliff jason was good but robert trujillo played fro ozzy osbourne so hes no slouch. face it they all been around for 30 yrs and still doin what dey do. only thing metallica EVER done i didnt like was st anger.

[Heavymetallord1]

@aaronstormspeake load and reload were crap as well

[empreme]

@Heavymetallord1 Nah, they are great albums. Open your mind! :D

[johnwaynejohnson]

@Heavymetallord1 they were great albums if you seen them for what they were, they were more rock songs than metal and had a few big hits.

[aaronstormspeake]

i love james and hes an artist pure and simple he can play the hell outta any instrument bass lead rhythm keyboards drums etrc he can do it all

[HABILUSJIM]

Pompous - self important cry baby that movie where they all fight and go through therapy  get the f--- out of here lost me hard with that shit

[spartandude0117]

Metallica have a song for every mood I'm in... Never left disappointed. Great band. And still have no idea why people take the crap out of them. If you love the band, cheer them on. If you don't, keep your opinion to yourself. Cause in the end its only an opinion of a successful band.

Keep up the good work metallica.

PS. Hope they keep doing what they're doing (y)

[GerMaggot555]

metallica should make an album with more country influence ... not a album with lou reed

[ihateyourface121]

what show was this??

[metallicagreatestfan]

@ihateyourface121 This was some "Outlaw" concert in 2004. I don't know the exast details, but it was something to do with the word Outlaws and he also performed Mama Said there (which is I think the 3rd and last time history so far)

Hope this helps a bit =)

[ihateyourface121]

@metallicagreatestfan

yeah. and dig the name. except im the greatest Metallica fan of all time :P jk dude lol. but i love em just as much as you do. so Cheers mate :)

[cappsoutlaw]

77 people don't know how to raise hell

[bossHyBRiD]

AMAZING MAN!!!!!!!!!!!! 

[Nomis213]

if james hetfield dies one day i will cry not only cause a great person leave us more cause of all the music without him !!!!!!

sorry for bad grammar cheers from germany !

[commonsense5308]

I love this. And yes, I am pretty sure that is Bock Rock on bass

[dantonage]

THIS IS BETTER THAN PORN!!!!

[only1brownmagic]

@dantonage no

[AgusMetalex]

puede ser que el bajista sea Bob Rock??

[cincminutos]

@AgusMetalex Si tio,el puto bob rock...xD

[ozena52]

Can someone give me some context on this? What's it for?

[187666coffee]

@ozena52 Waylon Jennings tribute. Waylon Jennings was a friend of james father he appeared on the tribute to waylon

[metallic773]

@187666coffee

I didn't know that factoid...thanks..



[throughTHEnever044]

[donttreadonme1751]

Everyone chill out the man's going to do what he's going to do, so if y'all don't like shut the fuck up. plain & simple.

[hankIIIfanfromPA]

waylon jennings and metallica. perfect.

[laslos3]

waylon meets Metalica...WOW cool

[orcun88]

James is Metallica. He definitely should do independent projects as well.

[mjaym23]

Hey dumbass wildwolf, Waylon is an considered an outlaw because he created music HIS way,went against the music industry standards, just like Metallica!!!

[KhaosOdensland]

OK they say hetfield dont know nothin about being an outlaw, he made metallica...is jennings an outlaw, NO He's a musician, so now what

[MetalHead9140]

Damn i love Waylon jennings and metallica

[MrLennybach]

what fuck you buddys this on CMT so people had to asking to do this. Tallica Sr. did a good job!!!!!

[dantonage]

ELECTRIC GUITAR-the greatest invention by humans ever!!!

PAPA HET-the greatest human ever!!!

[budboy1988]

@69wildwolf Metallica isnt outlaws? seriously? your a fool.

[TheHeavy666Metal]

@69wildwolf What the fuck do you know. Your name is appropriate because you are probabely 69ing with a dude right now.

[PvtRichardCranium]

I'm more of a Megadeth kind of guy, but this is fucking amazing.

[saldarriagavelasco]

Excellent

[steelpulsing]

Bass player looks like Bob Rock :)

[AleexHet]

@steelpulsing Is Bob Rock XD

[wta21080]

Came across this looking up Waylon stuff. This song is now ruined!! Pathetic!!!

[J4mezHetfield]

Happy 48th birthday Mr. JAMES HETFIELD!!! \m/

[sludger79]

Birth School Metallica Death....

[The80Cruiser]

[TallicaTyOh]

@The80Cruiser

Yes,He is.

[myselflucas]

@The80Cruiser  yeah ! cool !

[Pakulia1]

love his eyes, I'll always have a weak spot for him :3

[kevinxh1]

75 people dont know good music when they hear it -.-

[mihalis1010]

Thumbs up for Bob Rock on bass in the background. :D

[freeridergarrett]

this isn't country like people are saying its metallica james turned a country song into metallica

[pangodwangojones]

metallica should have called it quits in 2000

hetfield should have pursued a career in country rock

he obviously has a killer country voice

well its never too late he should quit and go solo

i mean he carries those other 3 lazy fucks virtually alone

Stop trying to write songs about shit and sing about the south

and dont theres still plenty of cash in country music

[Guitar4life97]

@pangodwangojones fuck you man, metallica lives!

[pangodwangojones]

@Guitar4life97 u must be joking

[DanielLoveMetallica]

@pangodwangojones dude James will never go solo, not when metallica is making a new album right now lol :P

[pangodwangojones]

@DanielLoveMetallica oh god they are making another abomination of an album,

thought the album cash cow was over years ago

[DanielLoveMetallica]

@pangodwangojones O_o if you dont want it dont buy it... just download it i wont tell lars lol :P

[pangodwangojones]

@DanielLoveMetallica ah a lars joke bit old, but nice try kid, anyway have a question

the pokemon on your page, are u for real? 16 year old n still playing with pokemon?

i mean gimme a break

[DanielLoveMetallica]

@pangodwangojones what rather me play call of duty? XD yes pokemon is a game for younger people but it was the first game i ever played and i will always remember it, and i know youtubers older than i who play pokemon and there is nothing wrong with that. its quite violent for a kids game

[pangodwangojones]

@DanielLoveMetallica I rest my case, your honor.

[aarontheman9196]

@DanielLoveMetallica hahahahaa! "rather play me on call of duty?" you tell that to the kids at school that beat the crap out of you? how bout a fight? if you listen to badass metal music, why dont you work out and become a badass? i doubt james hetfields a pokemon nerd. just sayin. and those older youtubers who play pokemon all the time probably live with their moms and are still virgins.

[DanielLoveMetallica]

@aarontheman9196 lol you made my day :) thank you for the comment

[DanielLoveMetallica]

@aarontheman9196 also pokemon is not hetfield style but there is a video on youtube of him playing super mario 3 in 96 (no bs) so Hetfield is into mario :D

also i am 16 so of course i with with my mom yeah!!!!! lol and i would rather be a virgin than get some bitch up the duff, if you saw some the girls over hear in northern ireland it would make your dick shoot back into your body *_* lolz

[aarontheman9196]

@DanielLoveMetallica my apologies sir, i understand that you live with your mom. i said those old guys probably live with thiers too. and i bet theres plenty of hot girls in ireland. spend a bit more time lookin and working out, and a lot less time playing pokemon. if it hurts not to play, just keep reminding yourself how good a pussy is going to feel. then you might be able to avoid the fate of every other nerd: sad lonely lives with their moms. seriously, thats really good advice

[DanielLoveMetallica]

@aarontheman9196 Thanks man :D, dont worry i am not that dumb to give my sex life for pokemon, i play more guitar than pokemon any way >:D learing tallica, Megadeth riffs rockin out pissing my bro off hehe. and even dave mustaine said he became a guitar player for " free pussy?! where do i sign up?!" fuck yeah. well there is always the south of ireland for girls (in the north they are crazy :P) i dont dig crazy chicks you know ps that was really good advice

[NaVySealsXx]

whats the intro?

[GerMaggot555]

@NaVySealsXx it´s electric from metallica´s garage inc album, the original is from diamond head

[tallica4651]

is that bob rock on bass?

[MrSadButTrue13]

@tallica4651 Yeah

[j0U5Hb0XXX]

3:56 James "thank you nipples"

[TheLiquidPhantom]

hetfield u crazy white boy

[SmokeThatMoney]

Waylon is rolling in his grave...

[bisusyabisus]

@SmokeThatMoney i bet he is headbanging in his grave

[budboy1988]

@SmokeThatMoney Waylon was good friends with James and was very open minded he even produced one of Metallicas albums so you fail.

[skrimpshidy]

@budboy1988 Very currious statement. Never heard Waylon produced anything of Metallica.

[pappamakeclown]

@budboy1988 Waylon has NOT produced a Metallica- record. Those credits go to that bald guy who paid for Kill-el all, Zazula?, Flemming Rasmussen, Bob Rock and Rick Rubin.

[Videowatcher76]

@SmokeThatMoney , Why do you say that ? this song was co written by James Hatfield and Waylon Jennings they were good friends

[pappamakeclown]

@Videowatcher76 This was never a writing collaboration. This was the reulst of some radioshow where they had Waylon and James meeting, admiring each other and what not. Later Bob Rock produced a couple of songs, originally written/recorded by Waylon, with James singing and so forth. These were, i think, on some kind of compilation-album.

[assasiinii]

/watch?v=k_q5XFm0ahI

CHECK THESE GUYS OUT!!!THEY ROCK!

[superpunisher119]

He did a great fuckin job!! XP

[J4mezHetfield]

Why the hell are there background singers supporting JAMES HETFIELD? I mean, he has like the best voice ever!

[ohmyjeans]

THIS SUCKS. WHAT AN ASSHOLE.

[444Metallica]

James completely owns all opposers

[Canaboy12]

free speech: James is a good little boy/he takes it from the Maniie/the cops and sucks it up...

[TheMetalliholica]

Dude its a tribute to waylon,and james did an awsome job of it,and further more it was done out of respect,hetfield proves he can even do country better than most country artists!!!! Haha

[Bravotango23]

Sorry but playing guitars really fast and screaming loud doesn't amuse me. Metallica is good but they shouldn't ever mess with Waylon.

[Mantistas23]

Papa Het should do more side projects like this, thumbs up if you agree.

[HTJBSpijn1]

@Mantistas23 I dont think you understand the mentality of Metallica. No one is allowed to do side projects. Thats the whole reason why Jason left. Its very sad, since Jason left Metallica has not been the same anymore . 2003 release of st. anger (crap) and Death magnetic 2008 (out-dated) and last studio before 2003 reload in 1997. One could argue that Reload was the last real metallica studio album.They should make Re-re load with Jason as a side project!! I will give you thumbs up for that!!

[madmike81]

I bet this is on the jukebox in Valhalla.

[kix96fan]

have they ever done this on an album would love to find it if it is

[RavenShadowcast]

@kix96fan It was on a Waylon Jennings tribute album.

[madmike81]

Waylon was a musical genius. James does him good service here.

[beyondthegraveRIP]

I'd love to see James do this with the rest of the "Mighty Met".

[JoeStrangler]

I am so very happy that I am a country music fan and a metalhead! This is pretty awesome. more punk than country but EPIC nonetheless

[mikemac71]

This band covers, THIN LIZZY, QUEEN and WAYLON. That's just fantastically cool. I'm a huge fan of all those bands. WAYLON is the icing on the cake for me.

[msrelics]

Honorable remake and I do love Metallica...but this can't hold a candle to the original sung by Waylon

[hellfirethor]

Its still Rock n Roll its heavy and like Lemmy says if its louder than everything else its rock n roll and you know its loud as hell. I couldnt see James doing this in the 80s but its a great cover

[Andokai92]

YEAH JAMES!!!

[daafiedos]

Hahahaha HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!

[Cynni96]

i dont like realy this msuic style.. but this song with james.. is so great..

[jaratt85]

man who is the guy in shades doing backing vocals? also whos the guy playing lead guitar? I know the bassist is Bob ROck, former producer of tallica but the others Im drawing a blank

[Clike666ness]

@jaratt85

Those are former Waylon Jennings band members i believe. This is a tribute concert.

[Skarae]

@jaratt85 They are some of the original band members that played with Waylon Jennings

[subconni]

YEAH! that fuckin rocked! wish metallica would sound like these today! love the harmony-voice that he gets in the background! that is what made me love the load-days!

[ThrowUrHornsUp]

I once read an interview w Lars where he basically said if Metallica hadn't gone through the band counseling and everything that went into making that flop record St. Anger, James would probably be playing country music now, Kirk would be on tour with Joe Satriani, and he himself would be producing films.. Now that I see this I believe it about James!! His country style would be waaay better than any other modern players!!!

[jaratt85]

@ThrowUrHornsUp he also did another sogn that I dont know what it is, and he was on stage with his clear glasses on and it was lal day and they had blue lights on, it was on cmt once a couple years ago, my mother was flipping channels and called me in to freak me out, it was a really good song tho, very old song

[DrZen007]

3:02

That face will haunt me all nightmare long....

in a good way

\m/

[pilartxo]

@DrZen007

Well, from the point of view of a woman ... the most amazing blue eyes of the world.

:) \m/

[DrZen007]

nice haven't heard this before

James = win.

\m/

[taterfamine]

please thank a country solo album.

thank you

[74PRam]

Ain't nobody ever gonna be as bad ass as WAYLON!!! F@cking love it.

[ZorkuAravar]

Holy shit at 3:02 in this... James is a frikkin LUNATIC! And you know what? I LOVE IT!! >XD

[diamondtheater88]

THIS IS FUCKING AWSOME!!! I NEVER KNEW JAMES PLAYED OR LIKED WAYLON JENNINGS
