Couple Reacts to Metallica - Sad But True (Official Music Video) 

The Black Album has been an essential ever since it came out, when I was in 8th grade. The first time I heard it I was speechless! ❤

The song “Sad But True” by Metallica deals with themes of addiction and betrayal. It’s about the struggle with one’s inner demons and how those struggles can control one’s life, much like an addiction. The lyrics suggest a presence that is always there, no matter what, which could be interpreted as the addiction itself. James Hetfield, Metallica’s lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist, has been open about his own struggles with addiction, which adds a personal dimension to the song. The most recent estimates suggest that Metallica’s “Black Album” which this song is from has sold more than 48.5 million copies worldwide as of March 2023.

Whoever does Metallica's recordings is top notch you can hear everything on the highest level no distortion I find that amazing.

They will always be the GOATS to me, no matter what anyone else says

Flaws Fade To Black is the deepest song to me and the hardest riff love Metallica since they came out R.I.P Cliff😢😢😢

The Black Album was the first CD I ever owned. Christmas present from my dad. Exposed me something other than country and I'm forever grateful.

Dude, the cat analogy is the best explanation of the song I ever heard :D Now every time I see my cat enters the room I'll imagine it's the WWE champion walking in with Sad but True in the background

These men rock!🤘

Anyone else raised on Metallica? Shit these guys had a huge impact on my life. Never had a father so many life lessons and hard times... Metallica raised me. Made connections in my brain with certain things. Especially the song "my friend of misery" and that era of metallica. And yes i had a addiction problem too. lol Kinda funny... Grew up on Eminem and Metallica. No leaf clover is another amazing track. Metallica doesnt actually get enough credit for their lyrics. They are really great writers in everyway.

Kid Rock samples/covers this song in "American Badass" WWE Undertaker's theme in his biker persona

9:48 🤣🤣🤣now I feel oooooooooooooold AF.

Love you guys 🙏🏼

It's More of a mental health song then drugs. It's in your Head. It's the person in your head. You blame others for your life but it's nobody's fault but your own. If you don't like your life it's nobody's fault but yours. " I'm inside open your eyes, I'm you.

Yes! One of my favorites!🤟🔥

My First Ever Concert was THIS ACTUAL TOUR...HAWAII 1992...Iwas in 5th Grade

Amazing ❤

Ah, the album that started the Metallica hate. I always liked it and never understood why people flipped out, it’s not that far off from the earlier 3, they just had more money for production from being successful 😂

You've probably heard this sample used by Kid Rock in the song "American badass" that The Undertaker also used as his walk in song when he had his "American Badass" face of his career!

I've listened to this song a million times - I've played it a millions times (guitarist here)... I never broke it down. A lot of people can knock Metallica - but they are always meticulous songwriters.

That's hilarious bro !!! Great job guys

Black Album was my intro to metal and the first metal album i bought as an 11 year old kid in 1992. Check out Gorefest - The Glorious Dead. Incredible song. It's from the Gorefest album False also from 1992. The album cover is my av. My favorite Death Metal album of all time. Can't recommend it or praise it enough.🤘

Heaviest Riff of all time in the opinions of MANY

there’s a reason they’re the g.o.a.t.s this is one of them

The notable reaction to a sad truth is the beginning of the recovery.

James Hetfield (vocals/ guitar) of Metallica struggled w/ alcoholism since the early days of the band... Other members of Metallica had also struggled w/ drug and alcohol addictions, so 'Sad but true' was a song that the band could relate to personally... James' addiction would cause him to get into fights... cause problems in his marriage... and within Metallica itself. If u watch drunk drivers busted by police, they never accept responsibility for their actions... They have to drink, no matter what the cost to others around them. And they've done nothing wrong in their minds because it wasn't them; it was the booze... But it is them - just another aspect of their personality that emerges while intoxicated... That's what addiction is: a selfish disease of self-medicating to cope w/ everyday life... simply because of their inability to tolerate reality and the truth that is in their faces... They want the lie to be the truth and that is what alcohol and drugs do to people - they make them believe that they are better off intoxicated when they are clearly not well.

this is my jam, itsd my life story

I now need to see you react on Nick Thurl's new song end up dead 😍

that's an interesting tattoo your wife has the word valuable in greek that's cool!

GOAT

Try ¨¨Wherever i may roam¨ next time if you love this kind of vibe!

MoneyBagg Yo & Morgan Wallen Whiskey Whiskey Let's Go!!!

Misheard lyrics (that work especially in the social media age) 🎶 SAID THE TROLLLLLLLLL 🎶 I recall lifting weights in the basement to the cassette tape of the l Black Album including this Song O-L-D

Metallica “disposable heroes”

Love Metallica ❤❤

Oh man could you guys do either fade to black from the 1.6 million people Moscow show or battery from the 1989 Seattle show please and thanks!

The Kings 🤘

Let’s go!!!

I think it's about our awful instincts, our deepest and darkest thoughts and actions. The worst part of us, we've all had some evil thought at some point or other, anyway that's what I thought it was about.

I think you guys will love some Avenged Sevenfold 🤘🔥

Metallica is my shit 👌🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤟🏼🤟🏼

So you get 100k views and haven't returned to XG? Two recommended options: (1) if you want to stick to rap exclusively, watch 5 short XG Tape #4s (from rap line Harvey, Maya, Cocona & Jurin, and "Trampoline" group song), or (2) for more of a fusion sound, do very short Hesonoo & X-gene Performance Video (with drill beat) and then Offical MV for GIRL GVNG (short), followed by (dance) performance video of GIRL GVNG which is amazing chair choreo and includes missing rap verses from MV.

Can you guys please react to “I Believe in a Thing Called Love” by The Darkness?! Their lead singer, Justin Hawkins, started a RU-vid channel fairly recently and he digs the reactions and gives love to covers. (JustinHawkinsRidesAgain - channel name) 😉 Oh and fun fact, the drummer for The Darkness is the son of the drummer for Queen. It’s such a fun song and the video is… definitely interesting. 🤣

Great!. :)

I was just listening to them. In my Em skin🤭

I have never heard sad but true described quite like that before lol

I mean with the narcissist comment you’re not exactly wrong, because drug addiction is like a narcissist. It’s all about feeding the drug addiction much like it’s all about feeding the narcissists ego

Hog bless you ❤

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

It’s actually about religion.

How about some Layne Staley

#HOGZILLA

🔥🔥

Don't Tread on Me is another good one.... Volbeat also did an excellent cover of it.

Get your lighters out 🤟😎🤘 One mean 🎸 riff

Definitely about drug addiction not a cat😂😂😂😂

This song is all about drugs your right.

It's the drug talking to him

😅

White girl is in love with a knock off DJ Paul 😂

Back when they had hair and fucking ROCKED..........

Jesus of Suburbia by Green Day

Love the flag in the background hell yeah fuck Biden. Sad but true by Metallica what else can I say about this song that has already been said. Not to mention overplayed as hell, but certain songs are overplayed for a reason because when it’s that good, it deserves to be overplayed.

So many better songs. This is too Comercial but still a popular favorite. Right around this time they lost most of their fans lost that edge they had

React to megadeth holy wars

Everything after injustice for all was is CRAP

every one of us humans is a pressure cooker full of deceitfulness, selfish desires, and ulterior motives. we cover it over with a thin veneer of civility, but at any moment sin can come bursting out like a volcano. dr jekyll and mr hyde are inside all of us. this song makes me think of the emotional state of someone like ted bundy, during those times when he wasn't killing women and he was just living the normal part of his life. can you imagine the paranoia? imagine having to put on an act every time you interact with people in public, because you're trying so hard to deflect their attention from what you really are. "sad but true" is a psychological deep dive into the masks that people wear.

Is that a Biden banner hanging??? 😮😮😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

About satan being your puppet master

Also, I know they are talking about addiction, but this song has gotten me through one of the most toxic relationships I had ever been in. To me the lyrics were just a reminder of what type of person he was.

🤘👍👍🤘ed

I like what's behind yall BTW💪

Metallica was also just brought on to Fortnite lmao

This is one of the best rock songs ever
