Chris Stapleton - Nothing Else Matters (REACTION!) [METALLICA COVER] 

I'm so confused at how people their age haven't been exposed to the original Even if they're not massively in to Metallica or Metal. This would have been everywhere I'd imagine when they were younger

Lmao big facts. He sounded exactly like James.

I was thinking the same thing.

+1 here

I've always wanted to hear Stapleton do the theme song. Before I knew what Curtis Stiger looked like, I always pictured someone like Stapleton lol

Kinda slow and boreing. I like Metallica and Chris disappointed.

@@Half.Throttle.adventures. To be fair, I think this song's already slow. True, he made it slower. The absence of James' solo also makes me like the original more, but to each their own. Cheers

SAME

Yes!!!

this and nirvana's ''lake of fire'' where my first :)

@@AmericaFirst-1 lol are you 35 like me? Exactly the same. And come as you are.

100%

I believe u, but he did- his version is a thousand times better.

@@bowinkle8316 you know nothing

You don’t need to listen to any other version to know the original is the best version lol

WICKID? I KNOW THAT YOU HAVE MISSED THE POINT OF THIS COVER ALBUM ALTOGETHER. #1 IT'S A FUNDRAISER FOR CHARITY. #2 IT'S A WAY FOR ARTISTS FROM DIFFERENT GENRES TO PUT THEIR SPIN ON VARIOUS METALLICA SONGS FROM THE BLACK ALBUM. IF YOU PREFER THE ORIGINAL SO BE IT BUT DON'T YOU DESPAIR IF YOU PREFER THE COVER. IF EVERYBODY'S MUSIC PREFERENCES WERE THE EXACT SAME THIS WOULD BE A SAD PITIFUL BORING WORLD. PERIOD!!!!!BTW GREAT REACTION GUYS & ALL PROPS TO CHRIS STAPLETON & METALLICA.

Miley did it the best

@@thegooniverse495 YOU MUST BE 12!!!!!!!!!!!

@@mikebeasley6447 39, but close! I'm just not biased

They have done Jompson Brothers and Steeldrivers

@@kimvoss6600 yes, and both bands were amazing

Absolutely!! Love their album. Damn good!

i still remember buying this album the day it came out, on my mid-day break working at the vet hospital while in HS, laying on a couch in the basement listening to it. when the soft singing part of the unforgiven came on, i was trying to tell if it was hetfield or a guest singer..that was the first time he sang like that on a record, it was shocking to me. then this song.... what a mind F!

I had no idea; still one of the greatest albums of all time.

So true, this song would fit it perfectly

If SOA had gone a different way, with Jax and Opie putting things right with the club and ending with them as President and Vice President. This would have been a great song for them to ride off to in the finale.

He's definitely outlaw country. Kinda a southern rock like CCR, Blackberry Smoke, Skynyrd etc. At least for me.

This is well written! Everything you said is on point and resonates with me. Thank you.

Outlaw country is still a thing

He also does a live version of the Waylon Jennings song I Ain't Livin' Long Like This.

Right? My favorite Metallica song by my all time favorite artist.

Absolutely.

I agree. I know the story behind “hurt” and it’s truely a Johnny Cash song :)

@@skapuleproject2012 Only not.

@@jspriggs9386 lol I can respect that. I love that Music speaks to each of us our own way.

My thoughts exactly..did the original wrong by listening to this first.

or Soundgardens Johnny Cash cover ....

Agreed!! I was gonna say that this version is so DIRTY, but your description is so much better!! Great song!!

You do understand that radio has different channels? It's entirely plausible for someone to go their entire life without hearing a popular song or even an entire genre of music. How much Jagged Edge have you heard? How about Monica? Aaliyah? 👀

^^^ This! i was gonna recommend on their patreon that since Tennessee whisky is their 2nd most viewed they should do a revisit to a live performance of the song from either the ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IBLruNfUqUs.html Austin City Limits or ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-07tL6JahREY.html Farm Aid but they never see me :(

He KILLED that cover too.

So freakin' good!

I'm a bit ashamed to admit it as a ballroom dancer, but I never noticed that waltz tempo until you said something! I bet that was an awesome wedding dance.

I mean James is basically a country boy and a metal head combined into one. Look at him outside of the band he loves hunting and wears cowboy hats and boots all the time, loves working on cars and living a free life. Also makes a lot of sense when you consider Metallica’s discography. Especially in the load/reload era. Plenty of basically country songs on there. But I wouldn’t say his playing style is similar to that style of music. More just that he knows how to incorporate those sounds in the music by taking a chord and picking it in a way that gives off those country/folky vibes when he wants them to. I’d say it’s more of a choice than “just how his style is”. Because most of their songs where there’s picking patters with chords there’s basically no evidence of any country or folk influence whatsoever. It’s just he has an appreciation for that kind of music and knows when certain songs can benefit from that sound and playing style and that’s when hr incorporates it.

Hey certified purist Outstanding is one word.

thank you Webster

@@mr.h.36 lmao

Sad But True by Royal Blood is a banger worth checking out

Sad but true by royal blood and don’t tread in me by Volbeat. By far the best ones I’ve heard. I like the Volbeat version more than the original

I don't like Dream Theater but they did a pretty good job of Welcome Home Sanitarium.

Huh

That's the genius of Lars!

The one I work at plays Cold

@@dylandenney3980 I can feel your pain brother. Where is this be cold location ?

I second reacting to "Cold". That song is amazing!

It seems a tiny bit slower to me. Maybe it’s just my perception of the movement of the guitars. This has a sludgier feel to me. It’s good, though. It’s interesting to hear the blues influence in his version of the song. Then again, Chris Stapleton can basically do anything he wants to.
