Yay or nay... the best way to listen to Metallica’s One

I enjoy that version as well but the album version is still great

I say yay. It has always made that song 100 times better and more impactful.

I mean the video is excellent for sure but 100 times better? That’s gonna have to be a “No” from me bro.

Metallica’s first video after years of resisting the concept. I’d say they absolutely nailed it.

As great as the song and video are, my latest obsession is watching black dudes react to the One music video on YouTube for the first time

This times 10. I am now obsessed with YouTube reaction videos of black people seeing & hearing metal & rock songs for the first time. Lost in Vegas & King KTF are the best but there are a ton of good ones to follow. If you really want to be entertained watch black women react to Unchained Melody by the Righteous Brothers. They are blown away that it’s a white guy.

I agree.

But, Cornell's cover/mashup of One (with the music to U2's One) is even better.

On-air personnel at MTV were said to find the "One" video a tough act to follow. It was difficult to segue from something so bleak. "On a lighter note..."

I was barely a teenager when the video was released and it very much contributed to the mighty Metallica mythology. There was nothing as dark or as heavy on MTV as this, not even close.

Disagree. Better without the movie clips

I keep both versions on my phone. Have done so since the early 00s.
