We need a garage album again 🤘
We definitely do 🤘🏻😁🤘🏻
Garage inc 2.0
Yes
Garage Inc. Revisited
The Garage Days Re-Re-Revisited
As always Metallica doing covers is GOLD.
Indeed! Magical 😊❤
Tara’s.v
OH yes...!!
Fr bro I love the covers, Am I evil and just the whole Garage Inc. album is gold!
That was tight!
RELEASE THIS AS A SINGLE!
if you want a metal cover of Love lies bleeding there is one on Spotify by Dream Theater
Release it as a single and give all the proceeds to Elton's Aids foundation.
@@Maggi9909 The DT one is terrible.
Doesn’t exist after this
@@Maggi9909 because that's the same thing?
Why is no one commenting on Lars here?!? He’s fuckin’ killing it!! Go Lars!!
You know you're doing a good job when Elton and Bernie are singing along to their own song!
Yeah, it must have been an honor for them! Actually Elton called Nothing else matters one of the best songs ever, and James even got teary-eyed
He yelled "THIS WAS AMAZING, I'm deaf and I can read lips and I saw that❤❤❤❤❤
When James is playing the keyboard part on guitar... That just blew me away!!!
Me tooo
Loved it!!!
4:23 no thanks.
40+ years in and one can't help but still be amazed at Metallica's ability to take other artists' songs and make them uniquely their own. This is simply great.
They should totally play this in concert too. Amazing cover all around.
Absolutely
Agreed. I didn't think they'd measure up to the cover of the same songs that was earlier done by Dream Theater, but they did.
Gotta disagree, the intro had me cringing for the audience, drumming was way too aggressive for Funeral, made it monotonous
@@brettenator Congrats one not knowing jack about music.
@captainjefferies9047 what makes you think I don't know about music? I used to teach it!
The way james turns those piano melodies into riffs shows why he's the goat of riffs.
The evolution of Metallica is nothing short of miraculous. I wish some people respected that growth more. They are not just the best metal band on the planet, they are the best band full stop. This arrangement and performance is incredible. James looks so happy and Sir Elton and Bernie were thrilled!
Put down the crack pipe Nancy... they're not even the best of the big 4.
metal? jejejj😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Here here...the greatest band ever. Everything they do is quality work,whether or not it is your preference is not relevant...they are unmatched as a unit.
Last time they were good was in 1989 but okay dude. As a Metal band, they completely suck now. They aren't even metal anymore. It's like the family friendly version of metal. It has no soul and no talent left. And I know you fanboys will come to say otherwise, but I don't give a shit you're not even metalheads.
@@QUENTINBIB1what's the last time you were good and not butthurt, then? 🙄
Good GOD that vocal performance is UNREAL!
Here we go: “god”
@@jurgencuypers8350 ?
Finally it's on the official channel! Hopefully this comes to Spotify soon as well! New cover album incoming soon
I haven't heard anything about an imminent release of new cover album. It's your desire or have rumours surfaced?
Love this! I did my own guitar cover! Check it out if you can! 🤟🎸
@@ilyatoropov9926 No rumors that I've seen. If there are its from before the Metallica Blacklist that released a couple years ago and that turned out to be the cover album that was rumored. There are rumors of a live show release for an upcoming show at The Sphere in Vegas but who knows when that's happening since they're going back on the road for the second half of the 72 seasons run.
@@ilyatoropov9926 no rumours, just a somewhat common desire
Elton John just classically bopping to Metallica
whole bunch of oldtimers headbanging in there.
Next we'll see Elton in the mosh pit at a Metallica concert when they play Fight Fire With Fire just laying fools on their ass
finally official video
what is this song bro? cover?
@@leandrofg04 yes, it's a cover from Elton John from his 1973 album Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. The name of the song is on the title...
@@leandrofg04 elton john cover
@@wiktorz8524 Well I never thought I'd see Metallica cover Elton, sounds bad ass
Metallica they a huge fan of Elton John. Who can deny it, Elton is a great influence on music
Best band of all time!!
Second is AC/DC
La tercera Iron Maiden...
After Judas Priest and Iron Maiden
Let's see maiden or Sabbath play disposable heroes or damage Inc. They were surpassed in the 80s.
@dominicmedina6205 And Metallica were surpassed in the 90's. They haven't made anything good since the black album.
I don’t know how after at the least 20 years of my 33 years life of listening to this band and 43 years of being a band in general they can release 1 song and it still moves me like I’m 5 years old. Absolutely amazing cover and I hope to get another garage inc in this lifetime
Sometimes I think Metallica's level of musicianship doesn’t get the recognition it deserves . Not many other current bands would be able to preform a cover with this level of dexterity.
True.
Thrash fans can only shit on them out of spite. Metallica can do it all! They are True and play through their Soul!!!
Like Sir Elton John said….Amazing!
The Rolls-Royce of metal!
Robs bass in this was soo good.
It's funny people acting like bass has any real significance in any audio production based on thrash metal. Over half of its registry is obscured by the guitar
@@tucate3901 can you not hear the bass? If you were to remove it you would instantly notice.
@@tucate3901Cliff would disagree.
@tucate3901 What are you even talking about ? Have you ever heard anything stripped down without bass? You make no sense whatsoever.
Uh have you ever listened to And Justice For All remixed with the bass turned up.@@tucate3901
I love how humble Metallica is! While being the biggest band on the planet they still ALWAYS pay respect to their personal heroes. Amazing! This band never stops surprising me
They're definitely not the biggest band in the world lol
@@kuroneko334 Bernie named them during his speech lol
Top five easily
*cough cough* AC/DC is bigger *cough cough*
@@QUENTINBIB1 AC/DC is hardly even a band anymore.
I've watched this about 50 times on the PBS KZhead! Such an awesome performance!!
I also…))))
Epic!!! 🤘🏼🤘🏼 A Garage 3 would be amazing!
I'm sorry....how tight is this band? Anyone who says they peaked in 91 is wrong. They are on fire!!
Agreed
The only album I don't care for is St. Anger, but even some songs on that one were good.
Same here, along with the Load era @johnbess4107 . There's only a few songs I enjoy.
@@johnbess4107St.Anger tunes live kick ass
THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST COVERS I EVER FUCKIN HEARD METALLICA BABYY 🤘🏻🔥
Metallica baby 🤣🤣🤣 Kiss from the boys sweet baby
Ummm.. dream theater?
Do you remember how happy James was, when Elton John said Nothing Else Matters is one of the best songs ever written? I bet when they were asked to perform for him Metallica jumped at the opportunity.
Metallica is, was, and always will be the best band in the world
Hopefully this gets released as a single. This proves the band needs to make another Garage Inc. Metallica is still the greatest band in the world.
These guys can hang with anybody.
James has never sounded better.
🤣Yeah, he sure sounds so much better then on the Damage Inc. and Justice tour.
@@NPK476 It is... Maybe not that raw but so much cleaner and better.
@@Mutikainen87 Yes, because being clean, polished with a touch of studio magic that can appeal to a wider range of people is so important in metal. WHOOOO YEAHHHAA IT'S MASTER OF PUPPETS BABY!
😂liar
yes he has. he sounds good here, though
Finally it's on the official channel! Hopefully this comes to Spotify soon as well! New cover album incoming soon?
Absolutely exceptional! Prime time in the age of 60s? Yeah, man, that’s how it’s done. With the 72 Seasons yellow album tour, they’ve been showing us all they’ve got. Well done. Love your spirit, James. I’m 10 years younger than you, but no, I’m definitely weaker and older. We are blessed to be in the same era as you, witnessing your greatness.
Metallica on PBS. I’ve finally seen it all.
Metallica's versatility stems from their doing what speaks to them, not what othrs expect. That's not selling out; it's genuine artistry.♥️Kirky baby🤘
Ahhh James looks so well!!! makes me so happy.
Ever since he came out of rehab in 2019 he’s been on fire! Looks healthy too especially for a 60 year old
Garage Inc 2 is now needed boys!
3
@@AndrewGrey22 2. First one was Garage Days not Inc.
The only band of the big four that could pull this off in such a tasteful manner to keep all parties involved that happy! Did you see Elton Johns reaction? Amazing performance! Top tier!
Maybe because they're the only band in the Big 4 being sold outs and not being Thrash anymore?
@@QUENTINBIB1 Cry me a river. Any band that only sounds one way for 40 years sucks.
@@QUENTINBIB1 Please tell me in the contract where it says they had to only play thrash music?
I don't think anyone who's ever won a Gershwin award for songwriting has ever called a song written by any other big 4 band one of the best ever written, so...
@@captainjefferies9047AC/DC doesn't suck.
Long live our Metal Gods 🎸🤘
Sorry but the Gods are Sabbath 🤘😉
@@moody-muzicX2 yeah 🤙🏻🤘🏻
🙏🏻 amen to our Metal Gods!
@@moody-muzicIf Metallica aren't the Gods, then it's Judas Priest. Sabbath are the godfathers.
At this point in there career, metallica is to metal as to what Kenny G. is to jazz. That's cool they played an industry black tie event though.
So amazing to see the love from Elton and Bernie! This cover is just WOW!
We need Garage Inc. 2!!!!! This cover is fking awsome🔥🔥🔥
Hell fucking yes!!🤘
Man, other bands in their age range are slowing down, but not Metallica. They sound better than ever!
I wish I was there
Fuck heB I wish I was there!!! 😂😂😂
This is absolutely perfect. Everyone fucking nails it!
Metallica!!!!!!!!!!!
They look like they're all having so much fun playing this! I'd be interested in seeing how a Garage Inc. 2 or an EP collection of covers would pan out.
Fucking amazing!!
Wasn't expecting this to hit. Metallica still crushes!
6:52 DIALLING it in, that fierce energy from the 80s stuck around and came right back out
I was lucky enough to see EJ open with this at MSG on Thanksgiving night in 1978 (and John Lennon came out for the encore). This is right up there.
Gods of Heavy Metal! The FOUR HORSEMEN!
Feels so good to hear from them again! Metallica forever!!
YESSS I LOVE METALLICA
METALLICA FOREVER! 🤘🏻
It’s just so good man! Another full covers album would be amazing
Always phenomenal 💪💪💪
This masterful performance shows that Metallica is the greatest band in history and that they don't owe anything to anyone and have to prove nothing to anyone. Long live Metallica!
Yet they're still trying to prove themselves to the industry establishment by playing black tie events like this garbage. At least they didn't invite lady Gaga thing time 🤣
@@NPK476 the establishment would not have invited mega. This joint is too classy.... Sorry kid...
@@MGM261 🤣
Metallica needs to make another cover album
I love how Hammett respects the song and yet finds a small two bars to throw in a Metallica style riff at 5:16 Killer take on a classic. Looks like Sir Elton John is loving this version too. Rock on!
I cannot stop listening to this. The love, the pain, the feeling in this song fits James (and me) like a well-worn glove. Absolutely epic.
LOVE YOU GUYS _ THANK YOU FOR MY LIFE!!!
ive watched this vid like 50 times already.. it never gets old. this is an amazing cover!!! I hope they play it live on the next tour..
Garage II with Metallica’s unique vision of greats songs out there needed badly this days.
Garage 2? 😂😂😂
What an incredible rendition!! Awesome to see Elton and Bernie loving it.
Metallica family
Sounds heavenly 🤘🏻
Hopefully, this becomes available on Spotify.
those smiles up on the stage!
WE LOVE YOU FOREVER!!!. METALLICA. + ELTON JOHN SONG😎
Elton John was like, that's what I'm talking about! 🔥🔥🔥❤❤❤
This was something!!! Metallica family loves you! These beats, James owns "the voice" of metal. 4 decades of the Metallica Family.🔥🔥🔥
"🌞❤💋"...💪💪💪💪💪voice....Metall✌....
I nominate this as possibly the coolest thing Metallica has ever done. Really shows the level of stature and respect they have ascended to. Elder Statesmen for sure.
I saw the news that Metallica had donated US$ 100.000 to my country for the people who is in need at Rio Grande do Sul. Man, I fckn love these guys! Not only for their music, but also for their big big heart! Thanks for that, and thanks for being awesome as usual!
A nadie le importa Brasil 😂
@@space.midnight.cowboy Come on man why do you say that? There are people dying there and even Metallica showed some compassion to them, you don't have to be an a-hole on the Internet. Grow up.
@@TheItoshii Dude, do what I do about these guys: just ignore him. Let's just celebrate the fact that there is a band like Metallica to help who's in need. Long live to these guys!
Such an amazing cover. Please play this again!
I love that as soon as he took his guitar off; He immediately started blowing kisses to Elton John in the front row. Perfect!
Awesome to see Elton in audience
The best funeral song i've ever heard in my live. You know a masterpiece of music for every situation in live , Metallica ! THIS IS REALLY AMAZING! It is something i never expierienced in any band in ANY OTHER GENRE OF MUSIC!! THANK GOD YOU ARE HERE AND HEAVY METAL IS ALIVE!!! I really hope to see you all in concert near vienna/austria soon for the very first time in my live!!! Till then stay save!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love you , from IRAQ ❤️🇮🇶
So proud of you guys! You are THE BEST!!! 🖤🤘
At last, high quality video
OMG NEW METALLICA VIDEO
When you see Elton and Bernie being entertained by their own song you know they felt the energy. Good shit metallica
Amazing! The purple bass tho ❤ 🔥!
Oh fuck yeah. My favourite Elton John song being covered by these legends !
This seriously needs to be a single. This is badass
They are SCREAMING with mojo! This is one of my favorite performances I have ever seen from them! Please put on Spotify too!
I play this video every few days....absolutely love it!!!
The freaking goats man. Nobody better.
This is a full circle moment, to those who saw James get teary eyed when Elton praised Nothing Else Matters on Howard Stern and covered it with other artists on the Metallica Blacklist. James has always looked up to Elton and it's beautiful to see them honor each others work. ❤
Much love! 🤘
Metallica.. boys... WE NEED GARAGE INC. 2!!! Pleeeease 😩
Such respect for these guys - they don't have to do shit like this - but when they do - THEY DO IT JUSTICE!!!!
This really makes me want a Garage Inc. Part 2, come on it's time!
Yes
Man,still the greatest covers in the world,,only Metallica does it like that🤘🤘
That was AMAZING!!! This has always been my favorite Elton John song ❤
The Greatest Heavy Metal band ever in the world....... Legendary
Alter Schwede, was für eine Performance! 😳🙂🤘🏼🔥
Kirk hammett and greeny... James Hetfield now needs a 1959 explorer guitar to play every time Kirk is playing greeny..😊
If I'm not mistaken, he has one.
This is fucking amazing!
Greatest Metal Band Ever!!!
I've listened to the probably 100 times already and it's definitely one on my favorite Metallica songs ever. It's everything you'd want in a Metallica song. This tugs at my heart so hard ❤
