James is such an introvert . He is a deep thinker for sure. Even those less appreciated albums because that I still like so much because it kinda dig into your soul, and it can let you feel vulnerable sometimes, and not just cover youself with more and more layers. I grew up listening to their music, and I still do now with every album that come out, I have. It is a music for the loss soul and you can find the spot that you fit right in. That is why, I am a fan since 92'..ish. through high and low with them. Awesome journey!

Im agree, I love that interview too

And this interview shows how James is one of the best lyricists in history. An artist indeed.

Will never get bored of James speaking, from talking to his lyrics its just mesmerising

He has such a great speaking voice.

James really does seem like a down to earth dude. Much respect.

this is such a calming interview...

"Poor Kirk" pretty much sums up my feelings watching Some Kind of Monster

Love the analogy of him and Lars both driving the car while Kirk and Rob are happy in the back. When Cliff was with them, the dynamic was different. Cliff wasn’t driving, and he was happy in the back, but he also showed the other guys some amazing scenic routes they never would’ve taken without him. Jason of course had the impossible task of taking over from their brother Cliff, so any scenic suggestions he came up with were usually shut down. Bless all of them, their collective journey and their individual journeys.

Perfect example of money can’t buy everything. James had a hard time like all of us. And I’m sure he still struggles.

And my god he's one of the best people to interview...he really makes the Interviewers feel comfortable..... Thanks James you are amazing person and have helped me in so many ways ❤️🤘

Thanks for uploading!

kirk hammett not complaining and demanding something more after not having many contributions to their song making only shows how humble he is. Many musicians have left their band because of this issues including sad to say jason Newsted and in megadeth marty friedman.

For so many reasons the timing of Death Magnetic, the music, lyrics, vocals... was so fkg great. A great Metallica album, meaningful..

I LOVE this man! Love THAT voice Metallica ever \m/ yyyyyeeeeeeeeaaa

He is very intelligent compared to other metal musicians. He stands out. You can see that mostly in his Lyrics and Interwiews. Followed by personal demons throughout life, as it is the case for most brilliant people.

I love his deep voice, his laugh, and his honesty. I could, and have, listen to him sing or talk all day long.

*My idol, I wouldn't be alive right now if it wasn't for Metallica, James Hetfield & Dino Cazares is the reason* *why I picked up the guitar.*

Love this band

I could listen to this man everyday of my life. I Wish my Uncle was around to have listened to this interview, it may have helped battle some Demons.

There's a wealth of lyrics to a hundred songs from this interview.

So handsome

I LOVE YOU MR JAMES HETFIELD AND I LOVE YOUR MUSIC, METALLICA, YOU ARE THE BEST.

His choice of words sounds like that of Brian Griffin.

I love how James handled the torture question. As well as all the political questions. If you know Metallica, you know they aren't (publicly) political. What I wouldn't give to go hunting with him.

God, how much I love this man! Excellent interview, James gives really profund and smart answers. His simplicity and sincerity are just wonderful. And that voice and laughter are mesmerising and so damn sexy!

Great video 🤘💀👍

Welcome to the path Brother James.

"Wherever passion lies that's the answer.." I'll need to go and process this now. lol

I thought asking him about using their music to "torture" Guantanamo detainees was a stupid question. He has no control over that. Interrogators also used Barney the Dinosaur, so...

I know that few fans are interested in the personal life of James, but for me the truth is I appreciate James, I know that he has suffered a lot and I pray to God for him, God bless him not as an artist but for the human being that is

this man changed my mind into up levels!!

James is so honest and very polite.

Such a beautiful soul.

I adore what he says about political matter. I agree, totally.

RESPECT 🤘

5:25 When he said my mom, you can see it was hard for him to that. I know how it feels because I lost my mom as well. It can be hard to talk about her at times.

I luv the Het! 🤘💚

James is the glue that holds metallica together

Love James!

I don't want it to stop...in otherwords..james isn't a snowflake

Ran away into the back yard, under some dirt 😂

"exposing your weaknesses is a pretty strong move" hmm. Yes James I agree.

i love you james

People believing pop artists' political views are more important just because they are popular. He nails it right there. That belief is so fucking wrong and that is partly why I hate the likes of Bono and all those activists. This guy right here, that's why he fucking rules. Hail the great James fucking Hetfield.

@smkxodnwbwkdns8369

I don’t think most pop artists believe their political views are more important, they are just self-aware that what they say reaches a lot of people-more than the average person. It’s that way regardless if they want it to be that way. Some choose to use that power for good, like Bono. I never understood the hate he gets. I don’t like U2’s music but I respect that he doesn’t use his fame for just selfish and shallow things, he actually is trying to make the world a better place through humanitarian work and political enlightenment. The problem with James is he’s secretly a bone headed right-wing nationalist. His views are wrong and ignorant and as the spokesperson and lyricist of the band, it wouldn’t work to be political so the others in the band are inclined to be apolitical.

I wish he had more of an evolved point of view on torture. That aside glad he could get sober and keep his band together. Something I couldn't do.

He must have the benediction of tibet monks. Throughout the years he's become a wise man. Tons of respect. 🙏

If he put on a hundred more lbs, he would be a fantastic. Santa

The interviewer sure does seem like he sure is trying to elicit a negative reaction from James further into the interview especially talking about “torture.”

Who gives a fuck if their music hurts terrorists? They lost their right to not be hurt when they dedicated their lives to hurting others.

Nice softball question to start out the interview🙄

I personally agree with the quick burial part he mentioned. Some religions don't even believe in embalming the body and conduct a next-day burial.

Metallica borrowed less than arnold but are way in debt still to chuck taylor

Think about it, James has Metallica and really very little else. I mean money is made and lost but the relationship of James and his band is tangible and you can hear that through his conviction in everything he talks through.

Great great interview ! Best part for me: 12:21 - 12:29 (except the Guantanamo subject where he had no idea what he was talking about, he got lost there :-)

Did James become an old man in just 10 years?

James's comment about his childhood religion not having any funerals is really the way it should be. Bury your dead and move on. Sounds cold, but there's no need to draw someone's death out for a week or two with the funeral business. It can cost close to $10,000 to bury someone, if not more. That's just plain greedy. "We're sorry for your loss, but don't mind us as we turn you upsidedown and shake you til your pockets are empty. Thank you! Next!" Hell, I just may write a will of my own stating that I want to be buried the very next day. Don't draw it all out and make the grieving process even worse than it can already be. The most common phrase I've heard from friends and family after suffering the loss of a loved one and burying them two weeks later is, "I'm just glad it's over." I think they mean the whole drawn-out process of burying the deceased. That's just my two cents. 🤷‍♂️
