You have to check out "One" with the video, For Whom the Bell Tolls is another great Metallica song.

Song is about addiction. Drugs are the master and the user is the puppet. Saying drugs control you.

4:22 "This is the only time in the history of life I'll let a white man yell at me to obey my master" Sir, you owe me a new keyboard due to all the Coke Zero that just shot out of my nose.

BRO THE PURE SHOCK ON YOUR FACE WHEN THE SOLO HIT THE REACTION WAS PRICELESS

This song changed my entire life. I wore this album as a shirt I asked what to listen too on it. My mother and Father said "the entire album". On the way home, Master Of Puppets got me into metal and my mind was completely fucking blown!!!

I've had the pleasure of seeing Metallica play this live in person. This song, no pun intended, is a masterpiece. However hearing it with 50,000 people screaming "MASTER! MASTER!" in unison is a whole other level.

Song describes addiction in intimate detail. I was a puppet to alcohol for years. Homeless, imprisoned, deathly ill, and debasing myself for years until I cut the strings. Thank God!

I think the biggest appeal of these metal reaction videos is the viewer also feeling like they're listening to it for the first time with someone who also enjoys it. Respect

So this song is about addiction told from the perspective of the addiction itself. The first part is the anxiousness and need with its repeating melodies and lyrics. The second part is the "High", the addict gets his fix and is floating but it doesn't last long as the beat increases. The third part is from the addicts point of view, his realization that this is ruining his life and his hopelessness in breaking the cycle, and the chaos that is his life as we move into the fourth part. The fourth part the addiction has taken over once again and the cycle starts over. It ends with his inner demons laughter. Truly a masterpiece.

Needlework the way……chop your breakfast on a mirror, the song is about drug addiction, the drug being the master and you being the puppet. In the 80s parents were screaming this music was evil while Metallica was telling us to stay away from drugs. Lol

I saw them live in 87 the bass drum actually pushed me in the chest.

His reaction to Kirk’s solo is gold lmao 8:18

When ole boy completely STOPS when he hears that solo...that's why I watch youtube videos.

“This is the only time in the history of life that I’ll let a white man yell at me to obey my master” I’m dead bruh😂😂 Btw love to see ya wanting to play the guitar! Play it however’s comfortable🤙

It's so pure and enjoyable getting to see young bloods like you discover staples of metal for the first time. It was a pleasure.

I'm 47 year old black man. I discovered Metallica when I was your age. They changed my life. Get into them

The song structure is like the simulation of addiction. It’s all happy and then goes into a laid back high feeling. Then slowly gets more and more chaos until complete carnage

This dude had his hand over his heart for Hetfield's solo like it was the National Anthem. Now that's metal.

Fear not my dude, Jimi Hendrix was a lefty player with a right handed guitar. He was a legend! You should absolutely check out his cover of The National Anthem.

One of my favorite songs ever. Something about it hit me hard from the first time I heard it so many years ago. Sadly I lost my brother to an overdose Christmas of '21. I know how it controlled him. It was his master. Now this song brings a tear to my eyes. I still love it, just for different reasons.

When it says "chop your breakfast on a mirror", what do you think that means? Razor blade...white powder... I think you get it. The song is about addiction.

You were close. It wasn't white guy screaming at you. It was white powder.

One thing that makes the riff difficult to play is it's all down-picking. James is not only the riff god but the down-picking god as well. The only way I can down-pick rapidly and for long periods is if I'm on a sugar high XD

Music transcends politics. It transcends skin color and gender. It brings people together no matter their ideologies or backgrounds. And I am very happy to see you rocking out to it, bro!

That “acoustic guitar” part on the song is actually a clean channel guitar. It’s an electric guitar that runs through a clean channel (also, an electric guitar isn’t always gonna be distorted when you plug it into the amplifier. You have a clean channel, a distortion channel, and other effects like chorus, tremolo, etc.) that makes it have that sound.

His reaction on Kirk Hammetts solo is absolutely amazing he's like WTF lmaooo 😁😁

La primera vez que escuché ese solo de Kirk Hamet (cuando recién entré al mundo del Metal) sentí una descarga de adrenalina que nunca había sentido en mi vida. Lo único que se le pudo comparar fue cuando me asaltaron días después. Esa sensación me hizo amar este género musical.

Yo, this is what I live for. Music transcends generations and cultures. This is by no means the best song ever even for metal, but there's always a common ground and it's hella cool seeing someone experience and really feel what the music was supposed to be about.

"This is the only time I'll let a white man yell at me to obey my master!" I almost fell out of my chair laughing, no hyperbole

The fact that you DON'T know what it means to "chop your breakfast in a mirror," is a good thing. It means you aren't into things you ought not be into. Good for you, and your parents! 😁👍

I love how u got wrapped in the music but go back and read this songs words.. this is truly one of metal's masterpieces

First time watching one of your videos and I really liked it. Great, authentic reaction to a song that's not "easy" metal. It's a great song and about something serious, but also really full of a lot of musical surprises and changes and ideas. Thanks for taking the time to listen to it.

I always felt the song gave a glimpse as to where the band was at in reference to their heroine and alcohol use. This is the early Metallica that everyone loved, but if they had kept this pace up half of the bad would be dead. RIP Cliff Burton...

Cant wait for this dude to finds Pantera. I think he'd really enjoy Walk.

Man that is classic will never get old. I just got my driver license and one of my friends introduced my to this song when it came out. Man we wore that song out back then. Loved Metallica back then. It was pretty awesome and still is!!

I'm 49, and I've been listening to Master of Puppets since I was 15. Metallica got me into music, guitars, drums, bass, eventually audio recording school, interning at recording studios in Boston, Selling high end home and car audio, basically half of my life and professions.

dude, you are hilarious! 😂 It’s nice to see predominantly hip hop fans reacting to, and appreciating, Metallica...their lyrics are very meaningful in all their songs

You need to check out these Metallica songs: sad but true, the unforgiven, and one

I love how social media and mass media in general nowadays has allowed for so many of us to be introduced to content we wouldn't have otherwise been even interested to delve into. Before, people would stick to what they were used to in terms of music and just deny everything else. I'm glad reaction channels like this exist where people are giving different types of content a chance and allow themselves to enjoy ❤️🔥

These reactions are epic! It's like reliving the moment we heard these for the first time. I love it!

A true metal classic. I enjoyed hearing it with you!

I like what you said about the song having an unorthodox beat! Almost the entire song is counted in 4/4 or common time but the fourth measure of each bar in the verses is 21/32, or really close to 5/8. Metallica aren’t exactly prog gods so they likely didn’t plan it out to be exactly 21/32 but they did purposefully cut the last measures of the verse bars unexpectedly short to give the verses a more tense feel.

Absolutely wild how this song is 8.5 minutes but manages to feel like it's 15 minutes and 3 minutes at the same time. While you're listening it feels so long, but once the song ends it feels like it was so short. Also feels like it's not really just one song, more like 2 or 3 played back to back, mainly because of the interlude section. Fucking amazing. Metallica's songwriting skills are top tier. 🙌🏻

First time seeing a reaction from you and I absolutely love the energy you have! Also, I’m dominately right handed but play the guitar as a lefty. So I play it upside down, so you just gotta learn how to do it like that!

I had to laugh. ' This drum beat is awkward " Jojo, your not the only one who says Lars drumming is awkward

Definitely listen to “One” by Metallica!🤟

Glad I found your channel... 3rd video I've watched today. keep rockin youngin'

I'm late to the party, but I'm glad to see you having a good time jamming to a classic! It's one of my all time favorites for sure! Check out "welcome home" from the same album. Edit: battery is also an amazing one.

Metal is pure... Never fake or pretending. It's the emotions released so I can continue being a good human.

Unavoidable Metallica songs: One, Fade to Black, For Whom The Bell Tolls, Unforgiven, Sad But True, and so much more... Alex Hefner is doing their whole albums, one song per day, because the demand is there.

Dude. They just showed you a whole new way of making music. Good stuff. Love your open mind with music. Awesome sauce!

That feeling you got when listening to the song, it’s why I started playing guitar

"One" and "For Whom the Bell Tolls" next please! "Cemetery Gates" and "Cowboys From Hell" by Pantera are also some good jams.

Love it! I am 53 and loved seeing your reaction to something I started listening to when I was a teenager. Have seen these guys in concert 8 times. Keep rocking!

I love your reactions my young brother from another mother... Good to see you broadening your horizons with some ole school rock!

I want this song to be played at my funeral as my coffin is being sent down into the grave, that’s exactly how I want to go!

This song is about drugs, think of it as if the singer is singing from the point of view of the drugs itself, I know it sounds weird but it will make more sense.

That isn't an acoustic guitar in the melody portion, it's just a clean electric guitar tone, meaning no distortion.

Its such a great song. It can really be applied to anything that controls someone without them really admitting or knowing it. Its great 30 years later.

OMFL I LOVE THIS SONG AND I LOVED YOURS REACTIONS AND EXPRESSIONS LOL, NEW SUBSCRIBER JOJOO

Bro, you have to listen to "sad but true." amazing song. "the unforgiven" is another good one.

Nice! Definitely need to see Fade To Black and One.

Jojo your reviews I am loving! Keep them coming!

Dude.You just got a new fan bro.Love your reactions and you make me laugh.

The song is about drug addiction and how it rules your life. You're the puppet it's the master

LETS GO HE FINALLY DID IT! Keep up the great videos JoJo...another one by Metallica is called One This song is about drug abuse by the way, if you really think about the lyrics or listen to the song again it makes more sense

This is my favourite song of all time. Its amazing. ROCK ON!!

Finnigitlit!! Just found your channel bro. You’re awesome!!

Yes this song is about addiction. Drugs being the “master”

So this song is about Bolivian Marching Powder and addiction. And if you’re a lefty you’d need to invert the strings order like all time guitar legend and fellow lefty Jimi Hendrix.

Yo Jojo-thank you for “you” it makes my heart happy to see our younger generation learning and respecting Many genres of music! I was very fortunate to have been born in the early sixties, so I got some of the best decades of music throughout my life! Keep reacting-you are truly a beautiful soul!!

It was a pleasure rockin out with you!

As a guitarist I can honestly say this song is exhausting to play

I like how your heart just stopped the moment the solo started 🤣

These reactions make me so happy lol thank you for being open minded 🤘🏻

Im a year late but just know this video alone earned a like and subscribe! What a perfect video for what U expect in a reaction video! Glad you tried to understand and connect with the entire song and let it finish. Metallica is one of my all time favs

This is a perfect example of how we old Metal Heads Grew up!! I Apppreciate almost ALL music but this was my first concert with Queensryche!!

The way MetallicA writes a song, the story telling extends beyond the lyrics into the instrumentals, themselves. For this one, close your eyes and imagine someone at work or going around town, looking to get anything for a high. the middle of the song is them getting what ever it is they wanted and getting high, "enjoying the trip" as they say and nodding off to sleep. Then, they wake up, hung over, head grinding as they search for their next hit. But can't find any. the guitar solo is them freaking out about not having it. Afterwards, they're back out on the grind looking for some more...then it ends with the laughter as they find their dealer, the dealer laughing.

Just found your page. Awesome reaction!!! MetallicA for life!!!

I gotta tell you bro! Best react vid ever 🤣🤣🤣 You saw the light!!! So cool to watch man!! 👍🤟🤙

I love how some of the lyrics hit him and hes like wow wait, what kind of song am I listening to here they talking some deep shit here, but just as he's realizing there just might be a deep message to it the beat pulls him right back in so he can hold the message a lot like an addicted person who realizes what they doing is bad but just keeps getting pulled back in deeper.

He said he wished he could play it. Same here currently building up my downpicking for this song.

Outside of every other comment... I LOVE YOUR INTRO! Bum ba dum ba bum BUML! Keep it coming!!!

I am so proud of this reaction I love metallica nirvana ac dc and etc and this is the best reaction so far at master of puppets il sub bc u actually have good taste

Imagine experiencing this wave of energy live.

The song is about substance abuse and addiction, he’s speaking/singing from the perspective of the drug.

Been a Metallica fan for years and I still get the chills when I hear this song! Fun to see you react!! Cheers bro!

Dude. I clicked on this for the solo reaction. I can tell you felt that. Rock on dude 🤘🏼🤘🏼

One by Metallica eases you into and then blows you away. My favorite song.

Please PLEASE react to “One” by Metallica

the light part is when the user is high, and then as the song goes back to the abyss, the cravings come back. Genius.

Words of politicians separate us, but music brings us back together. Keep on playing the music!

Finally LFR Jojo! I was there at that concert Metallica’s “Master of Puppets” tour which was opening for Ozzy Osborne’s, “Ultimate Sin” Tour. Friday June 13, 1986 I got to see Cliff Burton play bass live, before the bus accident that took his life, way too early that September. Jake E. Lee was playing guitar for Ozzy. It was three dates at the Forum in Long Beach. It was history, and you could feel it, as the hair rose on your arms. “The Thing That Should Not Be” is another great song on that album.

You’re enthusiasm is infectious. Great new setup. Also, that’s a right handed guitar but you could roll like Kurt Cobain from Nirvana who played a right handed guitar left handed.

Great review/reaction & you’re hilarious! Ty

this is awesome to see, right on man

Listen to One, The Four Horsemen, or For whom the bells toll

Amazingly enough all of those high-pitched outro noises we're done by the bass guitar.... And that's why Cliff Burton is considered a god

Your face every time they change the pace is so lit

Best reaction to a song I've ever seen. Master of Puppets is such a well written song, that's so different from the others
