Hey, James LaBrie did nice job here!

[Gilhfree]

There's a reason why bands that are technically superior to Metallica still cover Metallica songs. While Metallica may not be the most complicated band, they had the most balls during the 80s. Metallica Rules!!!!

For the love of metal and Burton stop mixing out the bass!!! Jeezus thats THE most important part in this entire song

bands like dream theater and in flames have exceeded metallica , but if it wasnt for metallica these bands would never be , metallica probably contributed to music more than any other band , in flames may be the best band in history , but its because of metallica that they became that .

its the evolution of music !!!

I'm sorry, the keyboard is great in Dream Theater... but it just sounds wrong in a Metallica song, like really wrong.

@kurthetfield93 bs... dream theater is loaded with oceans of feeling and emotions, music IS feeling... get ur head out ur arse, no offense.

Metallica did the greatest show metal ever done: Seattle '89.

Gotta give em credit for that. Songs Sanitarium and Battery on that performance are just fucking amazing. And I dont even consider Metallica as the best band. Pantera Megadeth Dream Theater Death Cynic and Alice in Chains are first :p

@kurthetfield93 You can't really compare bands when it comes to emotions. Well you shouldn't compare bands in general. You can say that you like one band more than the other,but each band is unique and awesome in their own way and none is is "better" than the other. Remember that music isn't a sport, it's an art. You can't say Picasso is better than Van Gogh! Although I agree, Orion is amazing and Metallica was THE band that actually got me into music :)

@breadfanmgl Metallica live performances and Dream Theater performances are just different, its for different types of people. Being a fan of both, I enjoy head banging, but i also enjoy sitting there and watching the band play perfectly. I would just suggest loving all bands. Dream Theater can make you wanna head bang to, it just takes patience to know how the song is crafted, and also knowledge on time signatures

@ddensu learning to live is a nice song i won't deny it but even being a song with lyrics it doesn't give me as much feelings as orion, but even almost 50 years old fat james hetfield gives me more energy while i see him playing orion coz u can see in his face he is fucking enjoying it and actually means something to him...,and i dindt say technique or complexity are antogonists to feelings, they are important but can't be placed before emotions, when it comes to emotions metallica actually wins

[ddensu]

@kurthetfield93 Sorry, but saying that DT is a "soul-less band" is absolute BS.

Listen to "Learning To Live" and then tell me they don't have a drop of feeling.

Technique and complexity are not antagonistic to the feeling, they are complementary.
