Metallica – Sabbra Cadabra

• +1
  General Comment:I like Black Sabbath... but Metallica adds to any cover their ever legendary touch.
  I duno maybe it's that southern accent which James has...
  Anyway the first part of this song has a clear meaning... it's the second part
  probably talking about death is not the end... and there is a second life after this one
  "Well I know its hard for you
  To know the reason why
  And I know you'll understand
  More when it's time to die
  Don't believe the life you have
  Will be the only one
  You have to let your body sleep
  To let your soul live on"

    In all the other part not resembling a love song they may be talking about god, actually: "destruction of the empty spaces is my only crime", "I am the world that hides, the universal secret of all time", "I found out what it means to be believed", the other two strophes even talk in a sort of patronizing way about death... What's funny though, or intriguing, is the mix of topics... that mix could also have different meanings.

  General Comment:Quit bitching Black Sabbath fans. You know this version rules, and it even though you think it's not as good as the original, don't down talk the Kings of Metal.

    Kings of metal? Metallica? Sure. *Looks at Load, ReLoad and St Anger* all Metallica are king of is shitty mediocre sell out albums such as those.
    
    Black Sabbath > Metallica. Forever.
    Oh and Slayer > Metallica.

  General Comment:I haven't listened to the Black Sabbath original, as I have none of their music but this is probably my favorite of the Metallica tribute songs, along with the hilarious So What.
