So much Fade to Black in this song. Definitely heavily inspired by their previous ballads. Decent guitar work, though it sounds a little lacking. James voice is pretty unique here, but still mixed in with a bit of his early 90s style. The drums aren't very Lars-ish at times, but they fit the song well. Rob's bass really has nothing complicated, but it doesn't need to be for a ballad like this. This, so far, is my favourite song on the album, and it's probably the least metal lol. Odd.  |

As for the lyrics? Well they're certainly a lot better than Cyanide.  |

I liked this song very much. Thanks for the link. I didn't like their last album much at all. I guess I didn't give it much of a chance though.  |

Screen Writer: Even for those of us who gave St Anger a chance, it was a horrible album. Their spirit was gone, and I blame Bob Rock and all that trash with the therapy and blah blah blah.  |

I agree with Nanaki, Bob Rock ruined them in a way. I think therapy was necessary though, as well as James' rehab. it saved the band from breaking up  |

It softened them to the point that they were no longer Metallica. I would rather they had broken up and not made St. Anger.  |

James needed rehab other wise he wouldnt even be here. So I am happy for that I havent liked their stuff since the Black Album but hope this one changes my mind! :O)  |

Oh yeah definitely he needed rehab. I only meant the therapy softened them.  |
