One of the most iconic intros in a metal album, EVER.

@Dylanisa_BasketCase 8 ай бұрын

Yeah you think it's going a really happy upbeat calm song and BOOM complete 180 by Metallica

@HeavyRaiden 8 ай бұрын

@@Dylanisa_BasketCase When that riff comes it's like a fucking atomb bomb falling in a beautiful place, which ties pretty well with the lyrics. Also, that intro is so majestic and classical, Cliff was a genius. He always composed great stuff. Not to mention the rest of the song, with that beautiful guitar harmony in the solo and the iconic double bass part. Simply one of their greatest tracks.

Ive always preferred the harmonizing guitar solo live to the album version because its literally just the bass carrying the rhythm along. The image that always pop up in my head during that part is two dragons of lightning dancing (the harmonizing guitars). The drums are the loud boom of thunder you hear during the dance and while all this ensuing chaos, a mage, in this case the bassist, is in the background orchestrating and controlling the storm of two dragons of lightning. The live version is so badass.
