This is always what Metallica has been about taking risks and doing it THEIR WAY. This is not for everyone for sure but if you enjoy stuff that isn't the NORM this is for you... If you hate anything other than speed/thrash metal then sorry this isn't it. I love this song as this was my intro to Metallica way back in 1988, and now to hear this its still as brilliant as ever even with a drowned out piano. Times and music have changed, and its great to see Metallica evolve and invent new styles.

Not good...

very horrible

This song, not unlike Lulu, is like finding an onion in your ice cream. It's awful, makes you question your judgement in ice cream selection, and leaves a bad taste in your mouth for days.

This is a great version it is not horrible 5 star rating! This is my all-time favorite band and song.

At best. Embarrassing. James sounds terrible, and the band sounds like a bad cover version of itself. The piano is useless on a song like this. I'd rather pay someone $1.29 to punch me in the face.

It ain't easy being a Metallica fan sometimes.

Don't waste the money. Ruined this amazing song

They seem hell bent on destroying the credibility they once had. Who's making these decisions?

I'm not going to lie, I'm 29 and got into Metallica in 1997. I actually enjoy Load and Reload. I eventually worked my way backwards over the years and discovered the epic masterpieces that are their first 4 albums. With that said, this sorry excuse for a performance is proof that they need to retire and stop embarrassing themselves.
