Metallica - ONE - Live Seattle '89 | Singer Reacts & Musician Analysis 

In my humble opinion, this show represents the pinnacle of the best metal band that ever existed.

Even though I didn’t grow up in the Jason Era, he’s my favorite. Nobody will EVER touch Cliff, but Jason did what he needed to do and turned it up to 10000000000. Lived, breathed, and embodied metal from start to finish. He had the biggest shoes to fill, and I’d say he filled them all 14 years perfectly. I wish I was alive back then to witness his aggression :(

80’s and 90’s Metallica were one of the best live metal bands in history!

By far the most iconic riffs in metal., no one touches them still even today. And yes I’m old …. And I love Robert; but METALLICA WAS AND WILL ALWAYS BE JASON ON BASS …❤

Wow. Great reaction on Jason💪🏼❤️

Was at their show the next night, this was the closing song of the show. Was 22 at the time, 56 now and that's the best concert I've seen. You should DEFINETLY watch the whole video of the show. Watch the statue when they play And Justice for All

One of the best live bands ever!😉😆😎💥

IMO,Metallica has some of the most iconic openings in all of popular music. You just Immediately know it’s them.

Metallica's boxed set "Live s+++; Binge and purge" was a huge package released w/ 2 concerts on video (1989 in Seattle, and 1992 in San Diego) and 1 concert on CD (Mexico City in 1993) ... It was re-released w/ the 2 concert videos remastered for DVD + the CD's. It captured Metallica at the peak of their powers on tour for the 1991 'black' album and the 1988 album 'And justice for all'. Before that, Metallica compiled live footage from their early years to pay tribute to their late bassist Cliff Burton... it was the "Cliff 'em all" video and it had some of their best performances ( despite the low quality)... Metallica recently remastered and released some of those early shows. Check 'em out on RU-vid... including one in early 1983 w/ Dave Mustaine on lead guitar... and a 1986 Toronto concert which was one of Jason Newsted's earliest performances on bass for Metallica. They also have a Woodstock '94 set filmed... Now, Metallica after 1996 was becoming a different band... Their 'Load' (and 'Reload') album was not the heaviest, and they cut off their hair... They filmed a 1997 concert in Texas and released it as the 'Cunning stunts' concert video... It was not quite as remarkable and the setlist had some of their newer songs that were not really 'metal'... If u compare Metallica from 1989 w/ the band that is performing live today... they are definitely missing some of the intensity, ferocity and volume that they used to have... Having seen Metallica twice (2000 and 2003) myself, I can honestly say I was underwhelmed 🤔 I say this because having seen Slayer in concert over 7 times and Pantera once... I felt that those bands had not lost a step in the concert arena in terms of intensity and ferocity.

My first Metallica concert was during this tour, best experience of my life 🤘 Late 80s early 90s Metallica were untouchable Gods

I love seeing younger generations getting the awesomeness of pre-black album Metallica.

My favorite Metallica song. The words hit deep and so does the music.

The live version of this song is superior to the album for several reasons: more bass guitar, reverb on the lead guitar (and, indeed better lead guitar tone in general), better vocal performance, plus harmonising vocals from Jason. All these things combine to make this a deadly performance. When I was 18, my wife gifted me the Metallica ‘Live Shit’ video box. She didn’t know what she’d done. After we eventually divorced, I put the ‘1989 Seattle’ VHS tape on repeat, connected the audio to my guitar;s amplifier’s clean channel, and blasted it at Earth-shattering volumes whilst drinking cheap vodka from the moment I woke till the moment I passed out.

Seattle is one of best metal concerts ever ...

Kirk is a very underrated guitarist!!!!!

Metallica is the best live band ever. And yeah they are so much better live. Metallica are true Gods of Rock. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Great reaction Millie! You can thank Lars for the those beautiful drum sounds.

Very iconic breakdown here i agree, also with this song live outdoor Metallica always bring a spetacular lightshow.. and it was a highlight for me, when i watched them life in Copenhagen, in the national stadium.. that was right after the release of Hardwired to selfdestruct album, so other moments ti highlight from this concert would be For whom the bell tools, Mout into flames, and of cause Seek and destroy..

I was only 4 when this came out and I remember discovering them in the 90s wish I could have seen them live at least once in my life would have been great.

Metallica is the BEST LIVE BAND EVER!!! I'm seen them in 91 through now and still THE BEST!!!

Hi, thanks for reacting. 1986, Albuquerque, NM. Seen all them albums here. Live was the highlight of my entire life! I have never missed a concert, salt lake, Phoenix, and latest, Denver. I can't wait to spend another 1,000$ a ticket here in Denver! Cutie, spend the money and experience one of the best band that's still making new music. 72! I'm waiting for the dates here in Denver! 🤟👍🏻💪keep rocking!

They're one of the best live bands I've seen, and I've seen a shit ton of bands lol.

Loving channel, awesome reactions.......keep kicking ass!!!!❤

I saw them in Paris in May. Always awesome

Este concierto en seatle 89 es uno de los mejores que Metallica ha hecho. El sonido, la perfección musical, el público entregado en todo momento y el repertorio. Simplemente joder hombre, de los mejores.

...yes, I love Metallica too ❤️❤️

One of their best concerts ever, no pyrotechnics, no big screens, no special efects, only pure hard kick ass heavy Metal at it's best. Metallica at his best. I was in that concert I was 20 years old and better yet I bought the set box with the full concert on VHS 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Thank you. James been my life.

Always have the box with the 2 VHS tapes and goodies! Collector

I was at that show at the Kingdome in Seattle 1989 at the age of 13...😎

Yeah, the box set is definite must to own.

Could you be any more cool Millie? Love the camo. Keep going. Trugillo is cool but I personally miss Jason , especially live. Love it when Kirk breaks out his Rhoades Jackson.

hi millie, love you from Thailand ♥

your song at the beginning sounds a lot like the pillows! check them out, they’re great

Hello Millie if u looking for the most iconic intro of Metallica try Am i Evil ..Kisses from Greece

I was at this concert when they were in a different state. It looked the same. The thing that surprises me is the production of the shows and videos and how good it was back then (80s and 90s) compared to now. Now, well I will be kind and say they do things different today I guess and everything is overdone. If you want to hear some progressive "mad" as they called it guitar work listen to some Seremedy. They will surprise you.

She got the Hofner bass.

🤘🎧🤘

Have you seen or react to Master of Puppets live in Seattle yet? There's an interesting bass line in the beginning.

The best live performance Metallica ever.. Lars Ulrich like a monster

I see Metallica, I like…!

Very few bands could top Metallica live when they were in their prime. They are in their late 50's now. They've lost a step or 2 and they have to down tune to keep James in key, but they can still go pretty hard when they get riled up. James and Kirk are one of the top twin guitar attacks of all time - especially from KEA through the Load albums. Super creative and heavy shit (well, the Load albums were a bit different, lol).

Want to hear(for the first time) a sh!ty version of a great song with a bunch of crowd noise and a singer with a tired voice from doing 2 or more shows a weak without the thrill of actually being there? Then do a live version. 🙄 Do an album version first, then a live if you want to hear what it sounds like in concert. I didn't even bother with your reaction to Van Halen- Eruption. He's great! But when you hear the album version first then you know the basic structure and can hear the ad libs he's doing live. I enjoy your reactions and your voice. Keep it up! 🙂 It's your channel, but I'll be skipping (almost) every reaction to a live version of a song. New sub.

All I heard is that she loves Lars🤣🤣

Please do a reaction video for Periphery's "Satelited" I want you to listen to that song I know you will love it a lot

Nice ....

Hello..Millie..please reaction to AGT Golden Buzze 2023 Putri Ariani receives from Simon Cowell now top boom👍👍maybe u like,i from Malaysia thanks u

¿This?... Sos mas latina que Atahualpa, a ver si mejoramos eso cariño...

The quality of their live performance depends on the time frame. I saw them live in the early 90s and James sounded horrible. Everything else sounded great but I'm pretty sure the singer was drunk.

If you want a guitar god, check out Pantera. Dimebag.

FYI, your song "Silly Millie" became stuck in my head & I kept singing it. The problem was I sometimes sang it out loud. PS not really a problem just love the song.

WTF they kick fucking ass live best live band in the world right now
