Song Facts:
Band members James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, and Kirk Hammett wrote this. According to James, he wrote the song about a girlfriend he once had, but when he looks back at it, he can’t remember why he wrote it. Now, Metallica just considers it a song about their fans, because nothing else matters but their fans.The orchestration in the song was arranged by Michael Kamen, who also conducted the San Francisco Symphony orchestra. This song appears on Metallica’s 1999 live album S&M, which was recorded with the San Francisco Symphony orchestra. (thanks, Nick – Paramus, NJ, for all above)
Hetfield later said this song is about their constant touring, which they wrote on the tour bus and numerous hotels. (thanks, Jon – Bolton, England)
This is one of the few Metallica songs where James Hetfield played the guitar solo rather than Kirk Hammett. (thanks, Bertrand – Paris, France). Show SheetsPiano Music Sheet.
