I would place a my favorite Metallica Videos here, but well…. they are not so full of sharing with the fans except from the Official Web Site so here is that link. I will tell you as far as I am concerned, the most influential Metallica Album IMHO is the Black Album and the most thought provoking songs from that album are Nothing Else Matters, The Unforgiven, and Sad but True. You can not listen to Sad But True and not have it go deep inside. Nothing Else Matters was to me, a totally romantic song. This album came along at a time in my life when I was just starting to think of matters that were not about ‘me’, about things that were about the how I was connecting to others who were in my life. Yeah, I love that album. ** I still think that they burned their fans not allowing the videos to be placed on websites, I mean that is the whole point of being a band, connecting to your fans right? What ever**.
Glad to see Run DMC on it as Inductees for sure, they were a valuable part of our musical heritage! I would go on abit more about the lack of material for use by website and blog owners but, I don’t want to make the Music Nazis mad at me. So for now, we the fans will just have to be willing to go to the official websites, hopefully these bands and music companies will see that we are far more valuable to them as PR then they realize.
To see the Induction ceremony make a note that it will be televised on Fuse and also avaliable on the Fuse website on April 4th 2009!
And to close for the evening ~ Paint it Black from the Stones
