though dave mustaine isnt singing in this i still like this more than metallica's verson of it , although metallica is a excellent band , megadeth is just much more good to my ears , that's my personal take on this , people may think my answer is f***'ed up but i dont care :)

[rockinshep94]

[fraenkel97]

[MessiahForce]

@LoboTheBoss failure the singer is sean harris the original singer

[LoboTheBoss]

This voice VS original ?! No chance ,this cover sucks hard (singer).

@thebig4ofthrashmetal Yeah that's a good point actually... I don't know then, maybe James changed the lyrics a bit or something, which is closer to stealing than I thought it was then...

[thebig4ofthrashmetal]

@leerobbo92 okay i see your point but before cliff it was ron mc govney that played bass not james ron was james' room mate and quit because dave was constantly fighting with him

[leerobbo92]

@thebig4ofthrashmetal I'm not disputing that he wrote the song when he was 15 or whatever, but do you really think he wrote the drum beat for it, and the bass in it? He might've wrote the main riffs and the vocals, maybe even the second guitar, but I'm pretty sure he doesn't play drums for a start, or bass... So who couldv'e wrote them? Hetfield plays a bit of bass, and did the bass on a few tracks until they got Cliff in, and Ulrich obviously does drums... See where I'm going here?

[thebig4ofthrashmetal]

@leerobbo92 listen the first song mustaine wrote was jump in the fire when he was 15 he wrote ALL of it and the writing credits on the record say : hetfield , ulrich , mustaine you obviously don't know anything about how ulrich and hetfield screwed dave mustaine over

[leerobbo92]

@thebig4ofthrashmetal It had nothing to do with royalties, Megadeth released their first album with Mechanix on it before Metallica released theirs, so they had to change it. Mustaine got credited on about half the album's songs... Anything that was written while he was there that he's not credited for he didn't write at all (apparently). Metallica wrote the lyrics, and the whole bridge riffs and solo bit, Mustaine wrote the opening riff and chorus, so everyone got credited on the album.

@coleeo23 sorry, I actually don't remember sounding so snobby, so apologies there...

I do know that, it's the copy they handed out to fans in the early days, half of Kill 'Em All's on there...

I suppose it just sounded like it was something you'd noticed, more than that you knew why they sounded alike...
