This song literally saved my life... Thank you Metallica! For everything!

Probably one if not their best song ever. Both musically and lyrically

Metallica going on strong as always, regardless of what others say

These lyrics do break the isolation, when you’re going through such a state of mind or soul. Thanks, James.

I loved James' speech 4:09 makes me proud to be a Metallica fan. I have been through that and this song gives me comfort that I'm not alone!

First song I ever learned to play. Has a very special place in my heart. Absolutely love it.

There will never be another band as great as Metallica, we are privileged to be alive at this time!

This song saved my life when my mom passed away and I thought there was no more life to me. This song made feel I was not alone, made me feel understood, listened. It made me feel like Metallica wrote this song for me in that moment... I can't explain it but, I'm pretty sure some of you will understand my words. Thanks you Metallica, you helped me to win depression (although sometimes it still tries to be back). You made me stronger, or... showed me I was stronger than I thought. Thanks you forever Metallica. ❤

5:43 gives me chills everytime I listen to it.

James's talk before that awesome riff was one of the thing that connects them to even more people now. Well said from a dark place which can affect anyone. 👏 Still playing like this after all these years too. Amazing. We're blessed to have 'tallica. ❤

My goodness Kirk’s solo without Wah sounds so good, it shows how good of a guitar player he is, played so clean and well

Man, this might actually be one of my favorite performances of Fade.

First time in the snake pit for me… first time I cried at a Metallica concert - amazing experience and thank you guys!!!

Just lost my son Austin at the age of 23 on 12/01/2023 He took me to this concert and hugged me and cried to the song.. love you and missing my hero.

This is honestly one of the best performances of fade to black they’ve ever done god damn

I cried to this song when they played it in Arlington, this song will forever have a big special place in my heart. Long live MetallicA and the METAL!!!!!🔥🔥🤘🏼🤘🏼

Gotta say on this version Lars and Kirk are the standouts. Kirk with his amazing solo and Lars with good feel and fills with a great double bass ending. Great job guys, kicking Ass as usual. Long live the Metal Titans 🤟🏼❤

Dear Metallica, you save my life. Thank you 🤘🇲🇨

Kirk’s vibrato has really improved. It sounds more controlled, not chaotic and fast as it used to. They sound great 🔥🔥🔥

I have attempted suicide multiple times in my life & I am still considering it, but hearing James say, "You're not alone," always reminds me that there are still a lot of reasons why I should keep going. Thank you, James

This song has taken me many miles through my life, from the first time hearing it as a pre-teen, trying to understand the changes that were happening. This helped me deal mentally with losing both of my parents, allowing me to grieve with a set of headphones on and flash through many memories of them growing up. Now at 51 this is a song that I listen to daily, and when the time comes I want this played as I fade away.... and I already have it set up to be played LOUD at my graveside for my journey home. Thank you to Metallica for writing and continuing to play what I feel is the best song ever!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘 Metallica is life

For those whom walked the fine line between dark and light, this song is why many are still with us. It gave clarity and strength to so many.

One of the best lives of fade to black man.

Waited 17 years to finally see them live... best concert I've ever been to

Awesome. Such a great song, hard to believe it will be 40 years old next year. Love seeing Greeny on it as always.

When fade to black started i immediately started crying this song has saved my life countless times then right when i heard james speach i was sobbing uncontrollably the pain of everything ive been through my life i wasnt feeling well. I was feeling like i should take my life but this moment of the show made me cry so hard it felt so good to cry this moment and james speach has saved my life and has given me a reason to keep going i love you metallica and james you saved my life countless times without knowing it. Long live metallica.❤

This song gave me a spark of light in the darkest hours of my life.

I have felt that inside, and I would have listened to it for sure if not in part due to your music. Thank you, it was an honor to be able to hear that live.

Play this song at my funeral, or else I'm not going.

This song hits hard..awesome message James🤘🏻

METALLICAAAA WE'RE WAITING FOR YOU, HERE IN ARGENTINAAA

Excellent performance, thanks James for the words of encouragement, many people need it!

Metallica so humble, so proud.....

Greeny has absolutely the perfect sound for this song, sounds amazing.

It's so awesome to see Greeny still playing to massive audiences worldwide.

Metallica I can’t tell you how much this song means to me is help me through so many tough times in my life.

Best song ever written by Metallica. The complexity of the music, the lyrics, absolutely flawless! And still, after all these years, they nail it!

This was my first concert ever, long live Metallica 🤘😊

"You are not alone" ! Goosebumps ! 4:34

Kirk's Les Paul rings beautiful as ever, James gripping voice delivers the chills as ever. Rob's bass ripping and Lars' kicks and hits driving the song. Yeah, it's simply a joy to listen and watch this. Metallica

Greatest heavy metal band in the world!! 🤘🤘

One thing about Metallica, they have so many good songs that many will have many different favorites. But vast majority will have this one in the top 5, and it’s cause this song has so much character is which why I love this one so much

How has Metallica been cool for 40 years? It's really amazing. And please visit Korea.

KIRK DIDNT USE WAH

"Fade To Black", forever in my heart. ❤ Pure Masterpiece. 🙏🏼

They were awesome, just like I saw them in the early 90s. AZ loves ♡ u guys. Still going strong and enduring the times \m/

In late 2022 I attempted Suicide. The entire time I was on Psych hold in the ER waiting on a bed in a Psych ward, I was singing this song. I credit this song to keeping me alive. I still listen to this daily. Please, don't hesitate to ask for help. Go seek counseling. Death is not the way out.

that solo could keep going forever

I can't explain the peace, nostalgia and happiness I feel when listening to this song in the middle of 2023. One of my most complicated years and Metallica is there, every day. If only you knew how grateful I am. As they always say, and as James always says every chance he gets, Metallica Family, always together, no matter how far away we are. ❤️‍🩹🤍

I was there, and for my first time seeing them live, I was tearing up when they played this one specifically.

I grew up listening to Metallica and there is hardly a day in my life that I don't listen to this song. These days, when I'm reaching my forties, I still can't stop listening to it and I can't stop my emotions and tears every time. Thank you Cliff, James, Lars and Kirk for always being with me with your brilliant music. I wish to meet you in Iran one day.

Metallica the best!🤘🤘🤘

Even several tens of thousands of miles away one can feel all the energy of music! Awesome! 🤘

I literally stood in MetLife a few weeks ago with tears in my eyes. Such a beautiful, poignant and powerful song. I don’t care who you are or where you come from, this song resonates 🤘🖤💛

This is the onyl song makes me cry. Hetfields speech before the solo is like a dads advices. I love you guys. You are the best.

This is the best iteration of the solo from Kirk that I have heard in years. I was shocked when he went into the first arpeggiation and he didn’t slap on the wah like normal. Not that I hate the wah, but it was refreshingly clean and tight, with very few modal errors. I don’t think he has ever played it the same live as he did in the recording (even in the old bootlegs from 85-86), however this iteration was pretty damn good.

4:12 - This speech is empowering. It gave me goosebumps.

I think this is the best live version of this song... that was fantastic 🤘🎸❤

Bravo James for the speach in the middle of the song!!!

This was my first Metallica song. I'm 43 and heard this when I was a kid. My mom used to listen to Led Zeppelin, Creedance and many other classics. I only understood the meaning of the song after I learned english. It is deep and raise awareness, but the melody is a masterpiece. Timeless.

This song is amazing !!! but your performance live was out of this world !!! amazing live version from a guy that have seen so many over the years in my top 3 !!!, so glad to see that you guys still deliver music in such qualitie !!! makes me so proud of being a fan since 1984 !!! thank you !!!

Kirk's guitar sounds like heaven

Probably one of their best live performances of this song! Keep rocking on \m/

Awesome that James made that statement in the breakdown of the song.

I love this song and am not sure I would have survived my teens without it. I was fortunate enough to be in the Snake Pit for this show.

This is my favourite metallica song and none will be better in my opinion

i love this version guitar solo so much........

You re not aloneeeeeee!!!

fade to black song always give me positive energy whenever i hear it, thank you guys

the best harmonies of all time 5:44 I love it

Fade to Black a song that pulled me from the dark abyss of depression and loneliness more than once and it still does. listening it live was a cathartic moment that just left me withba tear in my eye without the person next to me knowing how much it ment to me

My Favorite song of Metallica

I’ve never been fortunate enough financially or transportation wise to ever see Metallica Live in concert but thank you Metallica Channel for bringing the energy Live to my home ❤❤

Been listening to them since they started now at 65 years old still loud and heavy

This. This is MetallicA - winning. Holy f this is amazing.

My place tonight is entirely different then when I lost my brother in 1994.... today I am feeling the 2 year anniversary of the loss of my Dad... but it doesn’t change anything... Metallica still reminds me that I am not alone... doesn’t matter the circumstances... Thank you Metallica (seriously, thank you)

Nem parece que já faz mais de 1 ano do show aqui de Porto Alegre... Que banda ❤

This song literally transcends time itself. And it always crushes!

This is the first time I saw this version of Fade to Black. I heard James’ speech during the Dallas concert, but this one was so powerful. I love that he is speaking out for everyone to hear!!! You are not alone!!!

You know the song people claimed made kids take their lives actually saved more lives that they think. Just because it’s dark doesn’t mean we can’t relate. Love Metallica forever

I was at that show, they sound as good as ever !!!! Even in the 4th level the sound was awesome

When I was 8 years old I heard this song, and every time I hear it I am transported to that time. This song saved my life.. Has a very special place in my life.. 🤘🏽Thank you metallica for having created this work of art as well as others that will live forever in the history of rock forever.. 🤘🏽😎

Fade to Black is one of the best Songs they have ever writen 🤘🖤❤🧡

This one's for Cliff!

Was there!!! 💯🔥🔥🥁🎸🤘

This song is amazing. The first time they played it live I almost cry. Metallica delivers as always.

That intro is too good. It will never get old.

amazing solo on a legendary guitar...

This song just seems to get more meaningful and potent with each year that goes by.

A um ano James desabafou em Belo Horizonte, e também teve esse previlegio com essa especial canção.

One of the Best MetallicA song.. with beautiful James message...

I'm 18 and i know Metallica since i was 5..thx to my dad..i love old Metal/Rock songs.. just wanna say..this song is still alive among new gen.. it's just rare to find :)

This was one of my favorite songs they played when I saw them in Arlington. It was such a surreal experience.

Man even playing while sick James can still perform!!! Metal af ! Best song ever made and I’m so happy I got to be there and experience it!

This song is the meaning of that part of life where we don't have, or rather we think we don't have, someone... But personally in my worst moment, I only remember that when I woke up my hand was held by my best friend, and that It is the most beautiful gesture that someone had with me... I get a lump in my throat when I listen to it... It is personally my favorite Metallica song... I am grateful that I woke up at that moment and that I am where I am!! !

I Metallica is awesome, they are the best in my book. I love them.❤❤❤❤

a masterpiece 🖤

Words cant explain how much i love this song

Honestly, it is absolutely stunning to me that in all of the social media world, the comments section is an endless pit of hatred and fuckin stupidity, but somehow, someway, the comments section for metallica live videos on YT is an endless outpouring of love and unity by the whole metallica family...It is absolutely excellent and uplifting. Thank you everyone. And thank you Metallica!

James had COVID that night and yet still killed it. A trooper %1000.
