The song is about drug use the first part is when your searching for a fix then it hits that slow melody like you just got high then you're left wanting more so the hard part comes back and the entire time it's the drug that's controlled you the puppet and the drug is the puppet master

I was rooting for ya man. I really was lol. I was sooo rooting for you to get the full meaning of the song on the 1st listen. Don't feel bad tho.. as not everyone does. I am sure someone probably beat me to this.. but the song is about addiction.. specifically addition to drugs. The main hint is the 'chop your breakfast on a mirror' verse. The song is structured to be speaking from the point of view of the drug itself (the master) taunting the addict. The middle section switches to the point of view of the addict.. speaking back to the drug/master... then switches back to the point of view of the drug/addiction as it now 'rules' the addict. Either way.. glad ya liked the song. ;) Peace

Dave still can’t get over it. It’s been 35+ years and he still says “in my previous band”.

This was the album that made me a fan. My best friend turned me on to them. She bought over a cassette and a tiny walkman style player that would play with and without headphones. Even with those tin can speakers, I was in love with the sound.

Yea dude, this song is about drug addiction. Listen to the song again (not necessarily on camera) with that knowledge-it will make a looooot more sense.

You weren't kidding multi purpose channel lol.... Bill Burr, George Carlin, Louis CK, Metallica, Eminem etc... so much greatness. I love how Metallica's music is judged fairly nowadays, back then they were considered satanic/evil lol. Also i noticed how you hip-hop fans seem to truly appreciate the seamless and numerous transitions when reacting to, for example, Metallica and System of a Down. Great reaction to this masterpiece! by the way the song is about drug addiction and the middle softer part where you were wondering if it was the same song would represent the part where a drug addict would get his fix. ''Metallica - One'' next, it's been done a lot, for good reasons, i suggest just a lyrics video. There's also an official video but it's busier. You should read the backstory if you do the clip or you'll spend half the video wondering what it's about.

@@charleshendrix3137 Actually, "Sucking darkest clear" refers to the darkness of the straw or dollar bill when snorting a line of coke. "Taste me you will see" also does this, because the way you ensure that you're getting actual coke and not powdered sugar was to dip the very tip of your finger into it and tap it on your tongue - if it went numb, you had the real deal. It could, however, also reference alcohol, which is why Metallica's lyrics are so fucking incredible. It could be used in any fashion, truly, but if you look up the specs on the song, you'll see wtf Metallica was talking about in reference to this song. www.songfacts.com/facts/metallica/master-of-puppets

React to The Four Horseman or No Remorse.

"chop your breakfast on a mirror" means chopping up your cocaine on a mirror for breakfast because it is an appetite suppressant and it is the first thing you think about in the morning when you're an addict. "come crawling faster. obey your master (cocaine). your life burns faster." then it goes into "all i see is laughter. laughing at my cries (withdrawing). FIX ME!!! (he gave in and did more coke)" *mega guitar solo*

I'm nearly 50 & this album was my favorite ... 30 years ago!!!! :-) You & No Life Shaq have brought it ALL back for me!! Thank you for appreciating this music so many years later!! Loving the jam down memory lane!! Thanks again~ jenn:-)

Seeing other people's reaction really takes me back to my reaction when I first heard it. And I didn't even hear it until it the album was about 8 years old. It's a timeless classic with a perfect mix of heavy, melody, harmony, and the way it breaks down and builds back up is just awesome. Love your reactions. And yes I'm subscribed.

Same song dude , its played thro the trails of a drug addict from scoring to the high to the come down in all a song about addiction an the battle within that we go thro Once an addict always an addict . Everyday is a battle . For those that need to hear this the first step is admitting truly to yourself their is a problem an allowing yourself to get that help . You can come out the otherside

I have been a Metalhead since 87' it's great when anyone discovers there classics and is like WOW.

This is the Holy Grail of heavy metal! Very cool react, dude!

Yo is that a Bills hat ur wearing? Bills Mafia! Love it!

Nostalgia.. Grew up listening to metallica my faves are fade to black and enter sandman.. Love it

Billy: They always go this hard? It's only 30 seconds in! Dude they used to do that for 3 fn hours on stage!!! And I loved all 180 minutes of it! Your reactions are genuine and awesome and you got me as a subscriber, dude. Great video. The song is about drug addiction. The Master being the addiction. The Notes and bit you "liked and really felt" that's the part of the song that represented the euphoric high from the fix, hence the smooth relaxed psychadelic feel. Then it gets all jumpy and angst sounding as the effects are wearing off and the feigning starts and he yells "FIX ME". I think you were starting to figure it out when you pointed out the "Chop breakfast on a mirror" bit, but you were distracted by the camera out of focus. Your face and wide eyes was golden when that Kirk came in with that solo after the bridge. But dude - never pause the solo!! You remember when Smokey told Craig - "you're fn up the rotation You can get killed with somebody else!" Well that's like guitar solos and us metal heads. Dont fk up the rotation! LOL.

Fantastic reaction vid. You like those notes because they’re in harmony, it’s quite pleasing to the ear. The line “chop your breakfast on a mirror” I would have thought was an obvious line to drug abuse. The whole song revolves around that. Keep listening! Great video.

I lol'd hard. Was playing this blindfolded at 17 years old in '92 haha.

It's about cocaine addiction, which was a big issue back when this song came out... the old commercial about doing drugs to work more hours to make more money to buy more drugs guy walking in a circle in a round room era...

It's drugs talkin', brother! Hence the phrase "Chop your breakfast on a mirror"!

The first time I heard this song and really started taking it in, I too had a "corporate" perspective on it. But I was working a dead-end job at the time (Walmart)

Bro love ur channel...keep it real...I like Real fuckers...Keep up the great work !! \m/

33 yrs later and it's still awesome

Here's the Scoop. The songs about anybody's drug of choice. There's three parts. Part 1 is, " here I am, you going to want High quantities of me." Part 2 which is the melodic part is the euphoria. And part 3 is, " I told you so."

Blind Guardian - Mirror mirror | Bard’s song (In the forest) Avantasia - Reach out for the light | The Seven Angels Theocracy - Hide in the fairy tale Kamelot - The Haunting ft Simone Simons Helloween - Straight out of hell Demon Hunter - Not ready to die Demons and Wizards - Fiddler on the Green Powerwolf - Sanctified with dynamite Tengger Cavalry - Cavalry in Thousands

Yes, the song is about addiction and how it mocks the user. The cruel laughter at the end is probably what every addict hears at times.

Best part is.... They still do this..... EVEN FASTER 30 YEARS LATER!!!

The masters of transition. Long live Metallica.

A lot of people have explained already that its about drug addiction, particularly about cocaine, hence the line 'chop your breakfast on a mirror.' The lyrical perspective changes between the point of view of the drug, then the addict (Master, master, where's the dreams that i've been after? Master, master, promised only lies!....FIX ME!), then the drug again.

This whole record is the definition of heavy. Puppets (the song) - two words: “fix me.” It comes down to that.

Okay, now I’ll subscribe.

Came here for your AK reactions a while back, but I'm mostly a geetar guy tbh, so it's nice to see you giving new stuff a try. :) If you tend towards lyrics, coming from a hiphop background, I'll say this.... you really need to convince your brain to switch from importance of lyrics in the majority of rock/metal etc, to the instrumentation & how that makes you feel- basically there are no bars here! (there are exceptions, but not that many). If you like the bounce in old school boombap hiphop or decent R&B, there are geetar bands who go for maximum groove which you'd probably enjoy more than the likes of Metallica & Megadeth. Although having said that, you *must* give Megadeth's "Holy Wars" a listen- it's Epic!! LOL

Hey man I enjoy your reaction videos. You do need to do some more metal. Since you like Metallica so far you got to check out One. Do It!!!

No worries bro, I didn’t catch the meaning of the song either, on first listening. I was to busy being lost in the music. As a 15 year metal musician, I was blown away by there music. I am a guitar player, and some times I focus on chord progression and creativity of the music. It was a long time until I was TOLD, it was about cocaine addiction. Love your reactions bro!
