This song dropped the day I was really struggling with thoughts. My favorite band saves my life again

James' lyrics, or the meanings of the songs he writes, are never hit or miss, this one included. The song speaks on the stigma put on the word 'suicide' itself, not the act of or the shadow of it over you, but the word itself.

The whole 72 Seasons album provides hope and acceptance of human nature light or darkness inside

Bleading me, until is sleeps, no leaf clover, these songs will move you 😢👍

Love this band since I was 11 and so many Metallica songs have got me through addiction and some very dark thoughts and times in my life I can honestly say Metallica has saved my life

Greetings from Portugal Amanda. I'm a huge Metallica fan and I guarantee you that if there is an Metallica album that you should listen to everything single songs, this is it. All the lyrics that James wrote are about mental illness (depression, suicide, etc, etc). Enjoy it and talk about it!

Until it sleeps has great lyrics. I think it would make sense to you. The whole Load album is great and got me through a lot. Helped me get over myself.

Yesss!! You nailed it. I just found this channel among other Metallica reactions. I have no idea of your familiarity with Metallica music. I think your really captured the song meaning and your enjoyment of this song is infectious.

I was waiting on this reaction! This band seems to always have a way to lay out their thoughts in a way we all can relate to it.

I love your reactions your so BEAUTIFUL ❤... Your messages are so inspiring and powerful...Great choices of music too.. love your channel

A Metallica video right after the Megadeth one??? Dave Mustaine's gonna be PISSED! LOL I'm playin' around Amanda. It's so cool of James Hetfield to challenge the taboo and talk about lyrical themes such as the idea of death on the "Death Magnetic" album, as a theme through the entire record, or this song where again he's sort of saying "people don't want to talk about this. Maybe that's the problem." Cause it is. I admire that; that daring, that defiance, in the approach. Cause that's what rock is all about. Rebellion.

Hi Amanda I’m glad you listen and break down the lyrics loved Metallica for years only thing that helped me get through when I was younger ignore the bad voices as much as possible

I really love the positive vibes here, never fails to lift my spirits at least a little

You must react to another song on this album called: "If The Darkness Had a Son."

This song is so cool, I love your reaction to this song and how your feeling ❤

Well said Amanda. The song is still growing on me. A strange but clever mix of a grim title & lyrics but an upbeat sort of happy sound. 🔥🤘✊

This is amazing! Also I prevail - breaking down and the amity affliction - all f*cked up are two amazing examples also, I found those songs to be Eye opening when I was going through the worst stages of my life 🖤

Amanda, your opening there was solid and anyone here that is reading this or heard what she said. That is a place you need to get to. Oh. Very good song.

Amanda's momma bear came out for a second. Threatening someone with some colorful words!! Great job as usual Amanda.

James always delivers, one way or another!! Have you ever reacted to Three Days Grace? I’d love to hear your reaction to I am Machine.

As someone who struggles with my own suicidal thoughts tendencies and actions,this song hits close to home for me. The inner demons I battle everyday get louder and louder and the pain grows, I've learned to just keep it inside just like this song says and I know one day this will be my end but this is the path I walk and I'm just putting one foot in front of the other.

Best song on the new album IMO

The final chorus is the most important lines, "don't you keep me inside, screaming suicide" the message to voice your inner demons need to be more common and not ignored when people manage to

So many Metallica songs have helped me through so much 💩. Metallica has saved my life, countless times. Forever a fan

I don't really know if I will survive, but these videos undo the pain inside me, at least for a while

I'm not sure if you've done a video of "Room of Mirrors" or "Shadow's Follow" yet, but you need to. Room of Mirrors helped me last year during manic episodes from my PTSD. When you cover Shadow's Follow do one of the live shows; the emotion from James and the lyrics helped me during my really depressed/suicide attempts last year.

You are awesome!

Stoicism isn’t really about bottling up emotions. It’s about taking the things you can control and applying them to predicaments that are beyond your control. It’s ultimate goal is the state of Eudaimonia. A balance of emotions and inner peace.

Great song and great reaction! You should do songs by Shinedown. They are big advocates on mental health and an awesome band as well.

I love this band. they have been my voice over the past year of sorrow. their songs have given my pain a voice. I attempted suicide last June. sadly I am facing that decision again now. I am so overwhelmed by life that I can't see any hope of surviving

My past is full of panic attacks, and deep DEPRESSION. I feel the dark.

ive finger death punch coming down is how i have felt often.... i was diagnosed with disassociation and other mental health issues. thank god i live in Canada so counseling is covered. i'm on o.d.s.p so meds is also covered ,when i feel like i'm starting to loose my self i go to that song..i like your content just happened on it today.

not just dopamine, but copium. The substance that allows anyone to cope with anything.

Maybe you should listen to You Cant Bring Me Down, by Suicidal Tendency. Great song, fun band, really opens your eyes.

I'm trying to get out of a rut but I can't get to DC to get the surgery I need that would potentially save the one leg I still have and alleviate a ton on pain.

what a good song that has a very upbeat energetic

How about inamorata.

Hey, so I know I'm an outsider, but I wanna say, I'm not alright. Very much not so. Never actually hurt myself or anything, just drowning a bit. My win, is that before this "relapse", I've made massive progress with how my mental health is overall. I've also opened up to my therapist. I'm getting better. Or maybe worse and I'll need actual medication for it and then I'll find myself in a psych ward, which doesn't feel like a bad idea but I'd probably go crazy from lack of safe interaction and then I'd dle anyway. This is my small baby step when it comes to reaching out or something like that. But it'll get better, right? It has to.

I would love to see you react to the song napalm dreams by fit for an autopsy this was one of the songs that helped me would love see how you view the song. Along with the man i was not they write some of the most heart wrenching songs due too the frontmans and guitarist trauma from childhood.

Good groove too!

this song is about talking about these things... 'keep me inside my name is suicide' aka dont talk about me... yet youtube is basically trying to ban the word

I don't so much as to listen to this song for the lyrical themes, but for the rhythm and beat. But I got to admit the chorus is nice

Tallica boys hit the nail on the head with this song

You should listen to the pain remains trilogy by Lorna shore, it’s very emotional

I teach my son that sadness and such are valid emotions and tears are ok but I not to just cry about every little thing. I teach him that he will be better served to talk to his mother, myself or a teacher about his feelings than just crying to himself or locking it inside. Crying during the death of a loved one is completely understandable. Crying because Dad didn't let you try to skateboard down the roof of our house isn't. If that makes sense?

Amanda, I would suggest doing The Pass by Rush. Beautiful anti-suicide song with a great message. Thanks!

You should do a review of Gloomy Sunday!

I have a reaction request, now the song I would like you to react to is Rise Again by Hardriver now this song was made for the weekend event Defqon.1 and it’s part of the closing ritual but it has some deep lyrics to it but it’s also not your typical reaction because the music genre is called Hardstyle so if you know what Techno is and genres similar to it and you enjoy them then you’ll probably like this one too

🌻

Keep me inside, don't you keep me inside, screaming suicide!!!

🥰💙💙

You are great Amanda!!! Reacts Metallica Room of mirrors please 🙏 I still strugglin with my depression and for some reasons your videos help me to make me feeling better! I think you really know what I'm talking about... Alessandro from Italy❤

You should REALLY do Save Us by Mushroomhead! 🙏 The ultimate depression-anthem. 😪

Listen well!

after loosing both my mom and dad, close to each other in 2021 Sep 19th my dad, 5th nov. mom i love every bit of love for life only live for my big sister...but i´d rather not be around

I'm not sure if that means considering suicide as a solution or moving on

Please cover Shinedown's awesome song 45

LISTEN TO Too Far Gone OR Inamorata by Mettalica

Master of Puppets it's a must in your channel, I hope to see it soon!

you need to listn to "NF - How Could You Leave Us"

I have a suggestion for another or maybe a future reaction to a mental illness song by a band, Dream Theater and the song is titled The Enemy Inside. I suggest reacting to the lyric video so you can read what is being sung about. Take care! - Gene A.

Identity!

i love you

The best apology is changed behavior. The definition of repentance is changed behavior. So repentance is not just an apology, it's a change in your life. It's growth. It's progression towards righteousness.... toward Christ-like perfection. It's a journey, not a destination.

PLEASE REACT...pearl jam black mtv unplugged👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

You need to check out wish you were here by Pink Floyd

Metallica has always been willing to broach tough topics and put them to amazing music.

i love Metallica

My problem is I feel if I talk im seeking pitty,.

AMANDA, can you please react to where’d you go by fort minor? It’s very emotional I bet you would like it and most likely cry as well. PLEASE!!!!!! Please do the live version at summer sonic 2006 Chester sings the chorus for that, you will love it

Not my favorite song, but James really good in putting emotions and lyrics out.

Please do All fucked up amity affliction

Shinedown song 45

Listen to Fixxxer by Metallica 🎸 Like your videos!

Listen psychonaut 4

I highly recommend to watch a Metallica Documentary :)

You should listen to Metallica fade to black good song 😢

HALO ON FIRE.

Like luffy I know who I am. Don’t care what other people think ❤

Um no look in to James hetfield’s up bringing 😢

Suicide is an excuse not an end. I have forgotten of how many friends killed them selves and it’s us that have to live with there memories not them. I bet most can’t live my life and I take it on. I was a mercenary for ten years if anyone had a reason to remove the top of their skull it’s me. I just don’t have the urge to give a self inflicted lobotomy due to the fact it’s no fun. And metal-licka sucked since Burton died. I expect both myself and my son to be strong but not the way you suggested He has no stress and knows He doesn’t have to live up to my life. He actually can’t and I know this so really don’t want him to be a soldier but I don’t run his life or goals. He just knows I will wup his ass if he listens to anything after Puppets 🤣😱😇 He probably has bit is smart enough to not tell me or make me listen. But I also don’t make Him hear my music. My music is all about willing death and just accept the death. Be a Man with no name you never want your child to be one of us
