Meaning of the lyrics: Just for a bit of background. James grew-up in a Christian Scientist family. His Dad left the family when he was 13 or 14 and never came back. And part of the reason why was his Mom's devotion to Christian Science. And the cornerstone of that religion is they heal through prayer only...and his Mom got breast cancer when he was 16 and never was treated by a Doctor. From ages 16 - 17 James watched his Mom basically rot away. And even though James's Dad was still alive, he never even came back and was adopted by his sister as a 17 year old minor. His Dad came back after he became famous.

James Hetfield was asked a few years ago in an interview if there was a song that he was most proud of writing, and without hesitation, he said, "The Unforgiven".

When I saw it was you and the song was Unforgiven I couldn't click fast enough! I knew you would appreciate and love it! I was surprised you'd never heard it. It was all over the radio back in the early 90's. This is off of their very successful and commercial "Black album". I'm guessing you were too young and since haven't really listened to much of a Metallica based radio station, lol! So glad you appreciated it. It's very personal to James. It sounds so good cause they had the famous producer Bob Rock produce it and he wanted it perfect. Him and all the band members fought and fought making this album. Tempers were high and tension was everywhere. Bob said James worked very hard on his vocals to sound good and it shows. Here on KZread you can watch "A Year and a Half in the Life of Metallica ". Its all about making the Black Album and all the struggles as well as the highs from accomplishment. Once again, so glad you liked it!! I knew you would!!

"The Unforgiven" is James Hetfield's most personal track of all Metallica songs. The song explores James' tumultuous childhood. His dad left the family when he was thirteen for no apparent reason.

My condolences may you have have peace mentally and emotionally

The lead singer, James Hatfield was raised in Christian Science, an ultra religious atmosphere and forced to follow very strict rules. If I remember correctly his father left at an early age and his mother died as a result of refusing medical care. Very tragic story, this song is the story of his childhood pain and how he has had to struggle his whole life because of it.

I'm a 45-year-old female who was raised in a cult family that i left a decade ago. Recently, my mom had two strokes and i tried to re-establish a connection, only to be reminded there was never one there to begin with. This was one of my favourite songs as a teenager, and i'm only just now really beginning to deal with the fallout of that reality--they adopted me to be 'good Christians' ('good' is relative, and 'Christian' meaning 'automatically righteous', which is specious as hell), but my prior circumstances meant i would never reach their desires, and they effectively abandoned me. Listening to this song hit me in the feels, but it kind of helped me remember that i CAN deal with this--i've really been doing it my whole life, so i don't need to see it as this big struggle so much as just accept it and let it roll. I forgave them my whole life, but they really didn't deserve that. So they'll just have to fall into that category of 'Unforgiven', and i can move on. Sorry to be so personal. This just kinda got me. I used to do lots of Metallica and Crue and Poison and GNR on the piano. Might be time to dust one off and upload a cover...

Stank face Maximus returns, and my head was nodding in time with every nod of yours. I love how much you what James is singing, because he puts his heart and his soul into his voice, you can hear it and you can feel it; it’s a real gift that he shares it with all of us.

i watched my kids go through the same emotions when their mother abandoned them -- asking me "why doesn't mommy love us any more?" and me not being able to give them an answer, because i didn't want them to think she really didn't love them /// crying themselves to sleep every night /// running to the door when someone came to visit and then crying when they saw it wasn't her

Something I love about this song is how it flips the typical structure of chill verses and epic, banging choruses. .... comes in strong and heavy with the verses and bridges, and drops down to the quiet, powerful chorus. Love it.

Kirk once said in an interview that the solo on The Unforgiven was the solo he forever wanted to write and create. Very underrated guitarist in my book! The soul and passion he put in this solo is truly brilliant!! Then again, I wouldn't expect anything less as being a student of Satriani.

I really appreciate you taking the time to read the lyrics of these metal bands. They’ve been so misunderstood forever and so many are missing out on some amazing talent.

Jamal, I have definitely got to listen to you more. You also appreciate the songs because of the quality lyrics - the depth of thought involved in so many of the older songs. That's great Jamal - really appreciate that and appreciate you. You are refreshing! Thinking is not so common anymore.

Sadly THIS SONG relates to me on a VERY DEEP LEVEL!! Growing up my parents "beat me" and called it "discipline"!! THEY DEMANDED I constantly be polite, THEY DEMANDED I show them respect, and THEY DEMANDED I be honest with them at all times!! Before you think I am an ungrateful jerk.....understand ME CLEARLY HERE!!! I am the oldest of two boys, and in my parents eyes I could NEVER do anything right, while my baby brother could NEVER do anything wrong!!!! So when I made a mistake I was beat up for it......and when my baby brother made a mistake....I WAS BLAMED FOR IT AND BEAT UP AGAIN FOR IT!! All while he "skated by" NEVER made to be responsible for his own mistakes!!! No I was always punished for both his mistakes and mine!! Still further (to this day at the age of 56 years old now) my parents have labeled me as "stupid", "worthless", "a liar", "a drunk" and "crazy" as well as an "idiot"! So since the age of 5 years old (like I said I am 56 years old now) I have basically had to "raise myself" and "protect myself" all my life, and frankly I could never depend on OR trust my family for a damn thing at all other than the foreknowledge that they would fail me every time, all the time!!! Then when I was 15 years old I began to question why I respected them, when they NEVER showed me any respect at all!! And the older I got the more I questioned things like "being honest" when they STILL call me a liar to my face even when I am being TOTALLY OPEN AND HONEST WITH THEM!!! In fact my brother lies to them all the time and they buy into his lies constantly without questioning his integrity or character or motives!! My baby brother in other words plays them (our parents) like a cheap fiddle, and they buy into it with every word he says!! Little do my parents KNOW how many times I saved my brother's life!! I beat bigger kids up (and got beat up by bigger kids) to protect HIM!! My baby brother was allergic to bee stings and I must have gave him his medication more than three or four DOZEN TIMES, because of fear that I would be some how BLAMED if he'd died!!! AND STILL my baby brother "thanked me" by doing things TO ME, then blaming ME for hitting him for stuff that HE CAUSED to begin with......and I was punished and beat up some more for his lies and deceptions!! But like I say in my family I was ALWAYS AT FAULT AND ALWAYS THE ONE WHO WAS BLAMED AND BEAT UP FOR IT!!! Today I have no ties to my own family!! I have no trust of most people and very few friends because of how people have treated me most of my life (I used to get beat up by 7 members of my high school football team as well when I was a kid too)!! So I have no trust or faith in people in general.........but my only comfort is my taste in music!!! And music has been my only release from the real world.......and for me I AM........The Unforgiven!!!! Because today I am the bitter old man who has more regrets than anything else in my life!! I have never really known love, joy, bliss or true happiness, and most people tell me to my face I that I am rude, cold and bitter in my views of people and the world around me!!!! Some people want to see the world burn.......and in some respects I am one of them!!

That's something that many huge fans even miss because the title is 'The Unforgiven' (the one who fucked him up as a kid, I think his dad) but when the line is written, it's like when a King or Queen is giving someone a new title "I dub thee___", so he is saying it in this way.

YES! I was looking for this comment.

I call this my theme song. Got news for the rat bastards I was made to call family: IT DIDN'T WORK. In all my failures, I have success. I am my own and I have no family.

The beginning of this song sounds like an old spaghetti western theme..... and then the singing and metal guitars. Oh, man. This song is great .... and brings back so many memories.

I was hoping you might discover this album. Looking forward to it. Jamel I love the joy you bring to me and the world through your love of music and thoughtfulness!

They have the longest intros

@@jamelakajamal thanks my brotha, Im still catching up on all your vids!!!!

that song talks about millions of kids like us who he is talking about in school....most people see childhood as a great life ..remember a lot of kids hide in shadows....

this was the first Metallica song I ever heard, I remember my two older sisters playing it on the tape deck in the living room, they were no older than 10 years old, I was maybe 6...I was walking through and had to stop, this song hit....and to this day, still one of my favorite songs ever m

"When i think of metal, I think of Metallica". You're not wrong. But give Megadeth a try. Dave was kicked out of Metallica because he was too much metal for them And we love your stank face

No, get it right: Dave Mustaine was kicked-out for being a violent drunk who punched-out James Hetfield in a drunken rage.

I’ve Done Some Megadeth 👍🏾just search my name and the band

I was 15 when this song came out, and I was O.B.S.E.S.S.E.D. with it. Couldn't get enough. One of their greatest, and by far my favorite song of theirs. No Leaf Clover from the S&M album is high on my list too.

I love how the guitar solo sounds so angry and bitter- perfect for the lyrics.

Man to go back and hear these great Metallica songs for the first time again would be awesome!! Love your reactions dude, keep up the good work

The beauty of watching Metallica is watching Kirk Hammett, when he was in high school Kirk entertained us with his guitar playing at lunch time. For a teenager watching him it was awesome. But Kirk also played accustic guitar and he also played on local tv with other guitarist from our schools music class. You knew by watching him, his playing was special. He isn’t the only famous musician that came out of our class. But Kirk is the most recognized

Man! Memories of listening to this tune as a young teen. Thank you!

Man, I love your reviews

This music is soooo good. One of the best of Metallica. and this is my fav. No matter what the text is. It touch the heart with the music.

This is the song that got me into Metal. My friend sang this acapella in a soft voice, but the lyrics made such an impact that I went down a bit of a rabbit hole. Ah, the 90s...

I can still vividly remember going to see Metallica at what used to be called The Hoosier Dome, during their And Justice for All tour. It was incredible!

I was in first grade when this album came out. I still remember hearing this for the first time. Never gets old!

This song touches me deeply, it feels like they're describing my childhood in exact detail.

Saw Metallica at Petco Park in August 2017.... one of my best concerts I’ve ever attended.... on the floor, general admission, close to a few mosh pits... need to see them again.... Such a rocking, kick ass show....

You and lost in Vegas are my two favorite channels for music reactions. You guys really respect and enjoy all kinds of music which is great to see.

This is my favorite Metallica song. Loved it even more when I heard the backstory and what the song is about.

Brother im a 46 year old metal head a father of 5 and grandfather of 4 and you nailed it big time I have taught my children to have free will and never fell they have to depend on me or my wife unless its dire plus never forced them or influenced them on religion or belief always told them to find their own path... great message and reaction hails 🤘🍻

This is a powerful song. Teenage me heard this, and something clicked. My entire life, I had been judged and derided, held down by my parents, teachers, and classmates. This is the song that inspired me to raise my head and tell them all "You judge me? I'll judge you right back. Try and stop me." Because sometimes? Sometimes people don't deserve to be forgiven.

I would like to say Metallica is my favorite band ever and out of all the reactions I’ve watched I must say you always have a clear cut knowledge of the message in these songs and it brings joy to me sir. Well done!!

I've probably heard this song 3 thousand times and that snare is still the best thing ever recorded in metal.

Your reaction is amazing! I have seen people react and like it but you feel the message as well, beautiful 😊 oh- and I truly love your shirt!

I feel you, Jamel. I am giving my son the foundation to be a good human and with that; there are rules. However, when I see that he has his conscience built, I will be there a guide and let him be who he wants to be.

Loved this band since I was a boy back in '98. I'm half Native and I really appreciate this interpretation because it was my own. In school I use to use the computers for the internet to try and look up the meanings of their songs. Then I learned that's up to me. Which I'm glad.

Their songs will take you to another place but it’s not here. Pure Genius

They are such good musicians. It just blows me away that they created this at such a young age.

Thank YOU Jamal! Thank you for keeping it alive and reviewing great music!

I used to once think the lyrics in this song were, "So I done the unforgiven" which made sense to me too, but it was years before I realized he was saying "SO I DUB THEE UNFORGIVEN" and that hit even harder and brought chills. Basically I understood the jest and even related to the song, but it's crazy what a difference of impacts between those few words changed around in that one line made! Although it's a a powerful effect either way!

Excellent reaction Jamel . Love Metallica, seen them in concert a few times now and what power houses of concerts they are. 👏👏👏🥰
