The intro:
In the intro there can be heard machine gun fire, explosions and a yelling soldier which all represents a war scene. In the end of the intro there can be heard a fading sound of a helicopter. The sound of the machine gun fire seems to arise again in the instrumental parts - replaced by the drums and guitars.
Metallica about "One"
Kirk Hammett: I used a Mesa-Boogie power-amp, an '88 preamp and an Aphex paramatric EQ on this album. We wanted a clean guitar sound fo "One". The first solo went fine, but I had trouble with the second; I just couldn't nail it. I only had eight days to record all my leads because we were heading out on the "Monsters of Rock" tour. As a result, I was never happy with what was on record, and I flew to the Hit factory in New York between gigs to patch up the solos. I did the third solo in a couple of hours. I worked out the first right-hand tapping thing and from there it flowed very well. I think it worked because I was so pissed off that the second solo wasn't working out. When I had to play that live, it didn't feel right because it was so clean. So I started playing it in full volume with full distortion on my neck pick-up, and like it better. In retrospect, I think I should have played it that way on the album. (: subrice!!:D
