This. Right there. That's how you do a reaction video. This right here is the format all (ALL) tubers should be following. It happens in real time and the people react. Thank you both so much for not cutting the song 15 times to say "wow" or something equally worthless. Everyone else, take note: Intro, the whole damn song, and then discussion. Yes, please. Liked and subscribed. Thanks

This song really hit me two times in my life, when I went through a divorce, and when my daughter died three days after she was born.

That dude has a hell of an air guitar.

Sistah, I read that James stated in an interview - band went thru some issues like having their equipment stolen or get kicked out of their manager's house after band went crazy like breaking stuff or drinking his liquor. Here's the summary by James Hetfield during an interview from Guitar World: "That song was a big step for us. It was pretty much our first ballad, so we knew it would freak people out... Recording that song, I learned how frustrating acoustic guitar can be. You could hear every squeak, so I had to be careful. I wrote the song at a friend's house in New Jersey. I was pretty depressed at the time because our gear had just been stolen, and we had been thrown out of our manager's house for breaking shit and drinking his liquor cabinet dry. It's a suicide song, and we got a lot of flak for it, as if kids were killing themselves because of the song. But we also got hundreds of letters from kids telling us how they related to the song and that it made them feel better."

And RIP, Vinnie Paul. Panteras drummer, brother of Dimebag Darrell. At least they're together now. We will miss him immensely.

Thank you for this. My best friend in 7th grade killed himself, I walked to his house every morning to walk to school with him and we’d walk home together everyday. I went to his house just like every morning and found him and what he had done to himself and this song was playing in his room on repeat. I’m 43 and still think about him all the time. This was a hard one for me but thank you. R.I.P. David Daniel Fuller. I’ll see you again someday and maybe we can start off where we left off.

To Live is to Die is the right choice, 😉

Hi, my loves! You know... I have been listening to this song, ever since we did the reaction and I gotta say... this song is so beautiful! I am enjoying it so much more, after the reaction. One of my souljahs stated in a comment that this is the type of song to listen to alone; well, I kinda agree. I enjoy it so much more, on my own. I still don't cry, but oof... it takes me to another place. Thank you all, again, for suggesting this beauty!! :*

My money was on "I was me, but now he's gone"

This song saved my life a few years ago. I was in a low point and wanted to end it all, then this song came on the radio and made me realize, "I'm not alone... I'm not the only one who feels this way." Just remember people, you are not alone you beautiful people! \m/

I think it is meant to be listened to privately, its an 'Alone Song?' Does that make sense?

Fade to black has really stood the test of time... this song was back in the 80s and it still hooks people in... that's how powerful Metallica was and still is

10:32 “I wanna be moved by the music, not the imagery.” Please tell that to some of the metal core bands nowadays

I cried now. I sometimes cry to master of puppets's mid-section (slow down bridge) part when I miss the song a lot. Cool reaction lovely guys.

This song touches the soul. If you don’t have one you will find out after listening to fade to black.

Can you do “To Live is to Die” next? I think it has a high chance of making her cry, especially that clean part in the middle that sort of imitates a radio transmission

The greatest song ever made ! Back in the day Metallica got heat for this song saying it was condoning suicide, but it wasn't and lots of kids came forth saying the song saved them from killing them selves.

I’ve listened to this song millions of times. And when I’m feeling down it always gets me.

guys, love your vids just found you! God bless you both, great choice of song i enjoyed watching you both and dude your air guitar is on point! this song has taken me back from the ledge many times over 30 yrs seeing it live is like nothing else on earth that i've experienced! keep it coming, i think sistah will appreciate nothing else matters as well bc it's so positive, it's so cool to see how much you love Metallica my guy, awesome how you're so hype speaking about their music ✌🏼 y'all 🤘🏼 /m\ edited for typos after the fact

Watching Sistah experience songs that I have loved since my teens makes me appreciate them in a way I haven't for years. Thank you. Also I love the two of you together, such a sweet couple.

Songs like This help through deep dark times it helps u see that others feel the pain that sometimes u think u feel alone but in pain we can find the strength to push fwd

I love love love how dude man sits there with that smug grin like he made the music... 🤣 It's fucking awesome. That's how I feel when I show someone great music lol

Sistah I just love your reactions to good music. You get it. The meaning of the songs and you appreciate the artist and the art! Not everyone gets all of that. You're my new favorite for honest and heartfelt reactions. I wanted to say these things because too many people are quick to tell others what they dislike about them and very slow (if ever) to let them know what they like, respect or appreciate about them. This was a New Years resolution of mine years ago and so far I've done really well about keeping that one. I hope you don't mind me saying all of this! Keep on rockin!

You pick a great one, one of my early favorites. Lots of hard core emotions in this one. The song just builds, and builds as it fades to black. Lots of hard hitting lyrics that make you think. I love how you two just get taken away into the music. And if I can say it, you two look great together. I would enjoy going to a metal show with you two, it would be so much fun. But please don't cry.😿🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

I was 12 years old, first time I heard this album, I was probably stuck on the couch a whole month listening to a new world of metal these guys have brought to me. Glad to see everyone still sharing this amazing world of heavy metal :).

Mr. Crowley. Magnificent guitar solo and unforgettable Ozzie vocals.

You might not have cried but I did. I don't always but sometimes. I heard it the day it hit the shelves and now 30+ years later it can still tweak my soul depending on the day. I'm glad you got to listen and appreciate. I love your format, It's a pleasure to subscribe. Thank you.

Ok.....I couldn't resist it anymore.... I had to subscribe!! I love the dynamic that you two have! You 2 are SO beautiful together!! And Sistah.....you're rocking that blouse!! Beautiful!!!

Death - Voice of the Soul!!!

This is the song that got me into Metallica and metal in general

That song helped me through some very rough times as a kid. The most powerful time I heard it was at the Sanitarium Tour in 2000 (I think) at the Cow Palace. The entire damn stadium was singing, and a LOT of folks crying.

Wolf you are a lucky man. Sistah is so beautiful and empathetic. The way she feels the music is contagious. I also respect your music taste from Metallic, Floyd and Tool...plus many more. Keep rocking and introducing Sistah to great music. Thanks from NYC.

whether you cry or not, the unforgiven by metallica is my favourite song of all time, its definately worth a listen

Wolfkain, you and I are so like minded it's nuts! The feeling you get from the instruments, the lyrics and everything are spot on. Keep the good stuff coming you two. P.S. when she gets emotional over great stuff she has never heard, it reminds me of the first time I heard it. Love you guys 😊😎

Holy shit. This video made me cry like a baby. Not just the song, also the discussion. I've never looked at the song the way you did. My godfather commited suicide in december of 2015 and this fucking pulled on my heartstrings.

I love how you both just shut your eyes and feel the music. Great video

I didn't appreciate load and reload first either, but if you go back, they were great. You have to consider they took a 7 year break, and grew up a lot. They changed, but I now love those albums

23 years later... TWENTY THREE FREAKING YEARS LATER... And this song STILL gives me goosebumps. There aren't many songs that develop a true emotional connection to me. I lost the first love of my life to suicide when I was 16. Just before she died, she gave me a tape with this song on it. I was listening to it not 15 minutes before I found out... Great now I need a drink.

More than anything the reason I enjoy reaction videos is they are a moment to just sit down and appreciate music. You know it's good music when it's a song you've been listening to for 25 years and it still makes you stop and just listen to the absolute beauty of it all. This song is probably the one I would credit not only getting me into metal but music in general, and to this day that fact combined with the nature of the song makes me teary eyed almost every time.

This is why i watch reaction Videos....enjoying the Music, when no ones here with me....but to see the pleasure on ur faces.

Pink Floyd comfortably numb! You will love it I promise! Full of passion especially from the music itself...close your eyes and play the song and you will feel it!

Hell yeah. The first time I got my truck metallica came on the radio. The song was ride the lightning

Ok, i love your reactions! Very genuine, you've got yourself a new subscriber :)

You can try all you want to explain the meaning of the song, but you will never know, you will never understand, and you can never tell someone else what it means, until you, and only you, have lived, experienced, and felt the depth of that level of despair, described in this song. You just cannot know it, until you know it. Just as you can't know what love is, until you've known love, you can't know what sorrow, grief, or despair is, until you've known them. This song holds a much deeper meaning to me, because I've known exactly what he describes.

This is what a good song is called... Different levels, different parts, not that monotonic repeat of most R&B or country songs! Top 100 songs all time without a question.

I think I understand halfsista’s sensibilities. You have to do “to live is to die”. She needs to be moved solely by music. And this song will do that. Not to mention, almost no one reviews that song.

I'm about to watch this. And lemme tell you...I've cried like a baby many many times to this. Nowadays, recently, it warms my heart, and makes me feel free....I got through whatever I was going through thanks to this song. And now that song is gratitude and joy for having gotten through it. There is no right or wrong way to be moved by it.

Crying is more than emotions sometimes. I think it's wonderful that you can on occasion. 😊 It gets stuck in some of us. Really enjoyed both of you and your conversation.

I like how sensitive you are to music. There's nothing wrong with that. This song instills a sense of melencholy, which exists in everyone from time to time. Its regret, disillusionment and doom that some people can't find the strength to bear. I almost want to cry thinking about it.

ok here is one to cry :) Nightwish - Dead Boy's Poem

Dude and Dudettes...Metallica is a legend for a reason. Agree with Petgeek...this is how a reaction video is done. Ya'll killing it in every video I see. Love it. Keep up the good work...every video from ya'll i see just makes me more of a fan. Can't wait to see you with 1 million subscribes and more. Stay Blessed and Stay Well.

The way you reacted was completely appropriate for you. You felt what you felt in the way you did because of who you are. I believe that if one expects something different than that, they misunderstand the nuance of another person as separate from themselves. Certainly for me, it is nice when someone reacts similarly to me, but it is also insightful when something new is brought to the table. Thank you for your honesty😌🙏

No one could hate Fade to Black

I just want to thank you all so much for the continued love and support you give to our channel. I appreciate you all for accepting me and understanding me, as a (sometimes) overly emotional being ^_^ There is NO BETTER feeling in the world, than to feel accepted and understood. Some people come across my channel and over criticize me for being the way that I am. They do not understand me. But, thankfully, the majority of you, who watch our reactions and have subscribed to us, do. You understand and accept what we have to offer to this youtube world of reaction channels. It feels so wonderful =) You are all so beautiful. virtual hugs and kisses on the forehead to all of you. Peace. Love and light.

Thank y’all for reacting in a reaction video. You’re very genuine, and we all appreciate it.

I still remember 10+ years ago when I discovered this song on the radio and I only heard it from when he said "Goodbye" with the solo onward. Took me about a couple of weeks to a month find it based on that going crazy. Well worth of effort thought 🙌🏾

CALL. OF. KTULU. A must.

One last thing is that the beginning of To Live Is To Die is that it is heavy at first but then becomes soft towards the middle and sort of the end.

ive listened to fade to black quit a few times. ive maybe cried once to it, but it was because of how I was feeling at that time from things in my personal life when I heard it. much like any song that's brought up emotions like that. great song for sure \m/

Many folks have lost someone close - whether suicide or not, think PTSD , drugs, etc, where those unfortunate individuals who have lost themselves truly have an affect of the people around them . . . . and the helplessness & angst that these folks feel ( the " fuck , that sucks ! " ) is what Fade to Black is about , especially the build at the end. The raw headbang is why SO many people rate this song as top notch. It's not only for the actual victim , but the secondary folks , the families & friends etc that the song is written for / toward.

She reminds me of the radio D.J. in The Warriors.

*Disturbed- sound of silence*

Cliff Burton is the reason I played the bass and still do . That was a sad day in 1986 when I heard about his death

gorgeous as always sis 😍, incredible reaction as always, keep it up guys ❤️

To live is to die 🤘🏻🔥

"I Died For You" by Iced Earth. That will put tears in your eyes.

I appreciate your heartfelt reactions so much! I'm a new subscriber, I literally just clicked the subscribe button after your Nightwish reaction (and I hope to see more from them with their current Goddess of a singer, Floor!), and I saw this video in my suggestions. I don't know if you've reacted to, or if anyone has suggested, Disturbed's cover of "The Sound of Silence" yet, but I would like to toss that suggestion out there! It makes me cry every single time I hear it. :)

I do cry when I hear this song, because this song hits home so much. I struggle with depression, and suicidal thoughts everyday.

Love it. Please try 'To Live, is to Die'. Another instrumental but it was written for Cliff and uses his some of his poetry. Beautiful song, has made me tear up in the past. Metallica is for everyone, Metallica forever. Thanks guys!

To Live is to Die is much more of an emotional song and should definitely be the next Metallica song!

She is right, this song shouldn't make you cry. Emotion comes from the melody and how it hits you, not some stupid lyrics that force it out of you.

Okay now I'm 43.ive been listening to this middle school.and let me just say yall made me cry! A first! Between both of your reactions!he made me relate to the nostalgia and she made me though the new reaction and emotion!

Roy buchanan "hey joe" live. Its a very strong feeling cover that will hit anyone who listens deeply. Keep rockin, love yall!!

I can't stop staring at the beautiful lady

This song changed my way of life back there when it was released.....thanx for reacting...

This song always helps me through my depression ironically.

What a cool couple, seems like they would be fun to know.

Voice of soul by death. That Song is a masterpiece!

I love these two. 💕 Great reaction to probably one of the most darkest yet beautiful songs ever written.

Every time I hear the solo at the end all I can picture is after the deed is done the last fragments of memories are being called upon one last time as an e.m.t. worker tries to resuscitate the victim. The memories play out and slowly fade away as the e.m.t. starts realizing that the time of death needs to called.

I have to agree To Live is to Die is the only choice, one of the most emotional songs ever ans also happen to be a tribute song for Cliff Burton .

That's ok, I cried for us. Makes me cry every time. Makes me think of a dark time in my past.🤘

Actually, if you cried each reaction I would be skeptical of the authenticity of your reaction. Loved the video. This song helped me through dark times when I was a kid. Helped to ease loneliness knowing somebody else could feel the same as I had.

In 2010 my sweet baby boy was stillborn..this song was my go to song..I cant even count how many times I had listened to this beautiful song and how many tears had poured down my face from heartbreak and desperation..this song was the best outlet I could have had...I will cherish this song till the end of time.. "Missing one in side of me...."

A tout le monde - Megadeth So far away - Avenged Sevenfold Those may hit the spot.

To live is to die.......you just gotta! ☺️ Keep up the good work guys 👍

I've got one or actually two. Before I reveal, understand that I'm 50 and a hard rock/metal fan for a long time. I love and respect your reactions. The 2 songs I'm about to suggest have not only renewed my "faith" in metal but have secured it. PLEASE, not only listen to but react, both of you to Jinjer. Specifically to Pisces(live studio) but the official video of their song entitled," I Speak Astronomy". Not only is the band talented but her voice gives me goosebumps! Especially after the silent breakdown in I Speak Astronomy. I think sistah would really enjoy, even if she doesn't cry. Please consider! Keep rocking and thanks for your reactions! Much love!

I remember in 1986,listening to the radio, keep in mind Metallica was never on the radio in those days, atleast to me,I have NEVER heard Metallica on the radio before this ...... and I hear the Dj come on & say something about a terrble accident & I heard the name Metallica & I immidietly turned up the radio, they said The bassist for Metallica & said his name & said had died at the scene .... And while Im trying to digest this I hear the intro to Fade to Black starting up ... Because of this I always connect this song to be about them Losing Cliff, even though The accident didnt even happen for another year or two after tis song, but to me it was a huge moment when the Dj Mentioned the accident & then played this song.

You should try Disturbed’s cover of The Sound of Silence. Also Metallica’s Unforgiven/Unforgiven Too (good combo)

Sistah, apparently you feel power-metal better...try synphonic metal: Nightwish - "Ghost Love Score" (official live at Wacken 2013 with Floor Jansen fronting...).

Crazy, I was a High school kid back when this came out...I knew it was kick ass back then...Glad you guys liked it...

This song makes me cry enough for the both of us. I lost my little brother to suicide on Christmas day 1996. We were both huge Metallica fans and one of my greatest memories of him is being front row seeing Metallica together.

"Wrong side of heaven" Five finger death punch. That song hits home for alot of us vets. Must watch video with it.

Sound of silence by disturbed will be sure to make some tears come out!

YES SISTAH ENJOY THIS ALBUM so glad you are so open minded keep on posting im in all the way

That double guitar riff at the end is all I want to hear on replay outside of the solo.

Metallica-one

She might need to identify with it more to be able to cry. She might need to know deep despair or know someone in deep despair. I cried but I had severe pain at the time.

Now imagine this in 1984 and thousands of teenagers listening to it. This was strong then and is now.

This song is how I feel many days. I've loved it for as long as I can remember. It's a beautiful song but sometimes also a painful reminder of how some of my days go.
