So, What’s Better Studio Version On Metallica Or Live?

To actually take this song in to its fullest is to listen to the studio version so you could hear how Cliff played it. Rob is good but the reason this song is so great is Cliff on the bass, it is truly a masterpiece.

This sounds great for a live version, and Trujillo is a beast, but y'all need to check out the album version, with Cliff Burton on bass. No one compares to him.

Cliff Burton enjoyed and studied classical music, and it influenced his writing. Orion is proof. RIP Cliff.

Orion is the best instrumental of the 1980s. You guys have to do Dyers Eve next!

Definitely listen to the original studio version, thru some good headphones, in a room by yourself with your eyes closed. Y'all might not find anything about the meaning of this song online, due to the lack of lyrics, but listen to it as I described above and you'll find meaning in it. Remember, Orion is The Hunter. FWIW, this is my favorite Metallica song.

Cliff wrote most of this song. This was his swan song, released roughly 6 months before he passed. He never got to perform it live. I’m glad you guys noticed the “Cliff Burton Day” sign and bothered to look him up. He’s my favorite Metallica member. 🤘🔥🔥🤘

Studio version is a must for this song. One of the most beautiful and rugged pieces of music imo 🔥

Always a moving tribute to Cliff when they play Orion live in concert, Robert Trujillo does the bass parts justice but the studio version is a masterpiece and Cliff Burton's swan song; he was killed in a tour bus accident in Sweden in 1986, their tour bus swerved then rolled over, Cliff was thrown out a window and the bus landed on top of him...hell of a way to go

This songs always gives me chills. Hell of a masterpiece

"For Whom The Bell Tolls" live, Day at the Green, Cliff Burton at his finest

This song will be played at my funeral.

You should listen to the studio version to really appreciate the song. Cliff Burton on bass makes a huge difference. Plus check out Cliff Burton playing the bass solo Pulling Teeth live. Cliff will blow your mind on the bass

Still my favorite instrumental of theirs. Such a dynamic song.

I like the one who always looks up the lyrics and meanings. He’s good at steering the ship.

Guys you aren’t supposed to watch this live you miss out on the whole musical composition of the recording from the studio version on the album.. it’s a musical masterpiece and you’re missing out on so much watching this live

You can tell Tae is really into the music. It's so awesome to see! Cliff was unreal, he plays on the Kill em all, Ride the Lightning, and Master of Puppets albums. Brandon's fav "for Whom the Bell Tolls" is Cliff on bass. Such a legend. Gone too soon.

RIP cliff he had such a huge influence on the sound they had when he was with them

I love how much you guys love and appreciate Metallica.

I've heard this song a million times but Kirk's guitar at 8:43 in that section gave me the most huge goosebumps in this version.

Cliff Burton is arguably the greatest metal bassist of all time. I know he’s my favorite. RIP Cliff Burton

I seen them live in 81' when Cliff was still alive. He was awesome.

Goosebumps everytime i hear this... People bash Lars for his outdated drums technique but miss the point that he is like the maestro of the band.

When you get a chance listen to anesthesia pulling teeth on kill em all. Then check out the video on S&M2 where the guy from the symphony gets to play it. You know that dude waited his whole life for that moment.

Metallica has so many bangers especially early on

Crazy to think, a crowd can sing with a song with no lyrics. That's how you know it's an amazing song.

Please do the studio version of this for the fullest experience lol

We gotta get these boys to a Metallica show

Cliff wrote most of this song but never got to play it live :(

Really wish y’all would’ve listened to the studio version

Yall Mettalica and eminem reactions always got me geeked bro, congrats 👏 on all the 🎓 graduates in the car fam

This is the one of the best if not the best songs on MoP and the best instrumental in the 80s Also it’s called Oh Ri Yin Orion

Always a classic. But damn its tough to control the emotions when the bass solo kicks in. RIP Cliff

Ya'll should check out some Pantera. This is all preference of course, but I prefer Dimebag Darrell's guitar playing over Kirk and James. The mainstream intro to the band would be "Walk" but there are so many great songs to choose from by them. Personally, I would highly recommend "Domination" but you guys already did it 3 months ago. That breakdown at the end fueled my love for breakdowns early on in my metal journey. Maybe check out something like Cemetery Gates. It has some soul in it and some heaviness R.I.P Dimebag

You guys should definitely start a band. If you don’t give up you’re bound to succeed! With consistent, intense practice over a lifetime, talent is revealed.

I check your channel everyday to see if you guys did any more metallica........you made my day by doing this one

You should check out, “Spit Out The Bone”. It’s off their 2016 album and FULL of energy throughout the entire song. Also a GREAT song to work out to with insane instrumentals

'Orion' was the instrumental on the 1986 album 'Master of Puppets'... (Metallica was from the 80's) It was largely the work of bassist Cliff Burton, who was killed in a tour bus accident in 1986 at age 24 and he was a schooled musician. If u listen to the studio version, there's the quiet section w/ bass that sounds like a cosmic soundtrack and a very sad, mournful solo from Kirk Hammett... It was almost like Cliff Burton had an inkling that he was not going to make it and this piece of music was him saying 'goodbye'. Cliff's sister Connie Burton said in an interview that her brother was not religious (as far as she knew... he loved smoking pot 😁) but often, she would see Cliff up every morning in their parents' house watching Bill Graham Ministries on TV and repeating a line about "the kingdom of salvation"... The members of Metallica also recalled Cliff would be talking about 'the kingdom of salvation' from Bill Graham ministries and wrote a short poem while he was alive. After he died, Metallica recorded 'To live is to die' in 1988 and added Cliff Burton's poem as a spoken word in the instrumental track.

love that you guys have such a wide variety of reactions. it’s not just rap, but y’all really stretch out. great video!

Ive never seen this love performance. This was incredible. I absolutely love this song

You guys should definitely check out the studio version of this. It's one of Metallica's best ever songs and the live versions, while great sometimes, just don't compare to the original studio version's sound quality imo

I've been listening to Metallica for over 30 years. There are a lot of great songs to choose from in their catalog. I would say check out the videos for "One" and "The Unforgiven." Both songs have powerful videos that go along with the thought-provoking lyrics. Thank you Cartier Crew💕

You Rock guys!🤘🔥 Love u , more tallica reactions!

You guys rock. Thank you for this channel.

It's 100 times better the studio version, the song that never star and never ends, and orion gives you only 8 minutes of the song but enough to a human. The studio version has the cliff burton's ingenuity, a masterpiece that culminates the máster of puppets álbum. The Best disk of metal ever written

Rob did a killer job playing this song

i was born and raised on these guys. i appreciate the reaction! be keeping an eye out for more reactions

RIP CLIFF BURTON!! The master bassist and composer of this song and to be honest it’s something Metallica hardly plays, it’s just a beautiful memory of the genius of Cliff Burton. He actually studied musical theory, and he’s a major part of the Metallica growth in how they wrote their music, REST IN POWER CLIFF 🌹❤️ When Metallica was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Metallica brought up RAY BURTON who is Cliffs father, and he was so gracious to Metallica and the fans, truly shows how the band takes care of “family”

The live version is fire but y’all have to check out the studio version

Love love love!! Orion. It's mystically beautiful.

Shout to you guys from London Ontario Canada...keep up the good vids!

Gotta do the studio version first, in order to appreciate the live version

Haven’t seen this video but I hope you can appreciate the artistry of this song.

Love watching you guys discover these legendary songs. Metallica has been with me all my life. I’m happy to see them join yours

you guys should totally do slayer soon, south of heaven, raining blood, dead skin mask are some of my favorites

Cliff Burton was a musical genius, you HAVE to check out some Cliff solos. RIP Cliff.😢😢

Lars is a beast. Always gets a lot of hate but he is the conductor to the Metallica train

Good job guys, keep killing it!

Cliff is one of the best bass players in history. Look, if you take the same song - Orion performed by him, it's just a masterpiece. Also check out the song - For whom the bell tolls (live) Cliff'Em All.💪

Y’all gotta react to anesthesia, another Metallica instrumental, specifically the 1983 live at the metro version

This is a GREAT studio song!! Our son's middle name is Lars (the drummer)!!

I love you guys so much. For real. This gives me faith in humanity. Y'ALL Brothers actually get the brilliance and majesty of basically the greatest heavy metal band of all time - MetallicA I am a 48 yr old white dude from Seattle, and I have seen a lot....A LOT of rock music in my days and you guys attention to the mighty, the legendary Metallica....it just makes me happy my friends. I love you guys, and I only wish good things for you all. Much love, from Dave, in Seatlle. Go Sea Hawks......

You know you're doing well when a stadium sings along with your instrumental song

Metallicas instrumentals are next level. You dont see many other metal bands doing it and all of theirs are bangers. Rush is more rock than metal but they are next level, incredible musicians. YYZ by Rush is one of the greatest rock instrumentals ever, you should check it out!

No live cover is going to replace the original studio version……ever 😂

ugh ... you guys ... make me experience ... RE-experience my first time hearing these songs ... so many nuances ... thank you for sharing and being open minded to old music hehe. Sometimes i feel like there is hope yet for people in this world. Thank YOU JESUS CHRIST!!!

This is such a masterpiece ❤❤

The version on Master puppets is way better

Studio version is much more powerful

Love all your reactions 😂

Nice playing by Rob especially during that middle section like hearing the fingers on that part

You guys are avid listeners to Metallica, and really enjoy them. For that reason my pick for you guys is Avenged Sevenfold. They are definitely a spirited successor to the sound that Metallica created. S there library is extensive and I’m sure you guys will enjoy❤

Love it when the crowd is louder than the speakers

Love watching you guys. Videos for Halo on Fire and The Day That Never Comes are some more recent epics. Also, To Live Is To Die is an instrumental on their next album after Puppets, and it’s a tribute to Cliff. They’ve got a lot to check out!

Harvester of Sorrow is my personal favorite Pretty much sums up my life

If y’all want insight to who cliff was watch their live For Whom the Bell Tolls from day on the green. Truly one of a kind

Hey guys, love that you guys have been going thru the Metallica catalog. I’m a drummer and it was this band that inspired me to drum. You guys need to do some “Tool” songs review or watches. Keep doing what y’all be doing. It’s cool to see people listen to these songs for the first time. Respect ✊🏽🤘🏽

I love playing this on both bass and regular guitar!

Love you guys ! 🙏🏻🤘🏻

This my favorite song I was at yankee stafium the 2nd time they ever played it in America...crzy and it was my first concert

Next video would love to see you react to ride the lightning or the thing that should not be. Great video as always guys.

I've seen them 12 times starting 1986 all shows were mind blowing...

I love to see these guys feelin it for metal! Way to rep the headbanger bands and rip Cliff! ML&R to you 🤘

You guys should watch For Whom The Bell Tolls Live at The Day on the Green 1985. RIP Cliff

Luv these young cats.

I’m a music instructor, I teach bass, piano, and guitar. Two of my students actually performed this song on bass and guitar two months ago during a recital. Both teenagers. It’s cool to see u guys expanding your musical horizons, mad props. Also what u said was exactly on point. Everybody in the band has a job to do. The drummers job is to make sure the rhythm is solid, the guitar has to provide melody and harmony, the bass locks in with the rhythm of the drums and the harmony of the guitar to make them fit together, and the singer has to look good on stage lol.

Love you guys! More Metallica videos!

if you guys enjoyed that synchronized guitar lead, you should try to listen to Keeper of the Seven Keys, by Helloween, or maybe even Halloween by them too. they really go crazy with those solos. Great video guys, love your content!

Masters at their craft!

lots of Love and drive!!!!

I could tell Tae and Solomon were having an experience! Love these videos.

you guys have the most entertaining convos ever😭 “beethoven, michael jackson, youngboy..” 😭😭

I love yalls channel. When I subscribe to you guys you were only at like 13,000 subs. You always come with a good vibes. Love your metal reactions and your Tom McDonald reactions.. nothin but love.

Orion is my all time favorite metallica song

Im 52 now but i ❤Metallica as a kid, still do, love Orion man!! 🤟

The Kings! We miss you Cliff! 🤘

OMG HIGHKEY I ACTUALLY BEEN KEEN TO SEE ANOTHER METALLICA REACTION COS I KNOW THEYLL GET BETTER AND BETTER (SHOULD DEFINITELY SUS THE WHOLE OF THE FIRST FOUR ALBUMS OR EVEN EVERY!) AND IM ALSO GLAD U GUYS WATCHED IT LIVE ITS THE BEST ESPECIALLY IN THE EARLY DAYS 🤘🏾🤘🏾"METAL UP YOUR ASS"

"Leper messiah"......is another fan favorite.....studio version with lyrics......will blow your mind!

Cliff Burton Was, Is, and Always will be the Thunder of Orion. That song is the peak and culmination of Everything Cliff brought to Metallica to that point.

If you're ever going to listen to the studio version, I highly suggest listening to the 'Orion remastered' version by Ahdy Khairat. It's the best version on youtube and it has the bass sound enhanced properly, so you can hear it well.
