OMG! I am SOOOOOOOO excited!!!!!! Today's song is The Unforgiven III by Metallica FINALLY. PLAYED. LIVE!! ♥♥
The Unforgiven III is my most absolute FAVORITE song from their new album, Death Magnetic. It's so heartfelt. It almost surpasses the first Unforgiven!! Unforgiven II was a good song, but not a great one. It wasn't up to par with Unforgiven. But, Un3, as it's known to fans, IS up to par and almost better than the original one!
In the 1st and 2nd Unforgiven, the concept was that YOU were the Unforgiven. in Un3, he finally asks if HE'S the unforgiven.
Instead of Un3 starting with the inverted horn, like Un1 & 2, it starts with a piano piece played by James Hetfield! Woo. He got to show off his piano skills. (he took piano for 3 years. Starting when he was about 10.) ;)
Until recently, Un3 has been the ONLY song that hasn't been played live. BUT, on April 14 in Oslo, Norway, it was played live for the FIRST time! ♥ And they did a FANTASTIC job of it! Of course, the Piano part and the orchestra parts WERE tracks, but everything else was real and wonderfully played. Though, it'd be really, really cool to one day watch James play piano.
SO! Without further adieu, The Unforgiven III LIVE! Enjoy!
