MAY’Tallica Day 4 – A Perfectly Crafted Metallica Song
So far for the month of MAY’Tallica, they’ve all been barn burners. Today, we take a step back and pay tribute to a song off the Black album that has really grown on me throughout the years. There just seems to be something perfect about the crafting off this song. A song they took a chance on. A song they weren’t sure Metallica fans would like or accept.
Metallica is bashed and praised for that record, but I’m a fan. This song is one of my favorites off of it. Oh, and who wouldn’t like a video where they’re tossing darts at Kip Winger. LOL
Sharla on Twitter said “”Nothing Else Matters” is my absolute favorite, because it’s always gotten me through a lot of tough times.”
Nothing Else Matters
So close, no matter how far
Couldn’t be much more from the heart Forever trusting who we are And nothing else mattersNever opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way All these words, I don’t just say And nothing else mattersTrust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new Open mind for a different view And nothing else mattersNever cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know But I knowSo close, no matter how far
It couldn’t be much more from the heart Forever trusting who we are And nothing else mattersNever cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know But I knowI never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way All these words, I don’t just say And nothing else mattersTrust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new Open mind for a different view And nothing else mattersNever cared for what they say
Never cared for games they play Never cared for what they do Never cared for what they know And I know, yeah, yeahSo close, no matter how far
Couldn’t be much more from the heart Forever trusting who we are No, nothing else mattershttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMguFafuqrg
