[edit] This recorded date is wrong impossible

There's no way it was released 4 years before it was recorded. Either it's completely irrelvant, or it references a different version. According to their site [1] it was released in 1991. I don't know the recording date.

[edit] Progressive Metal?

I'm not sure I understand why this is called a progressive metal song. Could someone please explain this classification? Cronos12390 09:24, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

What would you call it?

--Rock Soldier 01:50, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

I'm not entirely sure, but I suppose if it were my call, I would just call it a heavy metal song. It isn't a power ballad, and it isn't completely like Metallica's other ballads, so I don't really know. But I wasn't debating classification, I was asking why this was considered a progressive metal song. I can only really think of a few elements (acoustic parts interspersed with distorted parts several times, alternating harsh/clean vox, etc) that might qualify it as a prog song, but this was present in all of Metallica's ballads. I actually just checked, and apparently Sanitarium is now a progressive metal song. I can't really say I completely disagree with this definition, but it seems odd to name it like that.

[edit] prom mom

[edit] For A Few Dollars More

Would somebody care to explain exactly where the sound is in the movie "For A Few Dollars More" that is similar to the opening to this song? "The showdown" is very vague, and I'm very interested in hearing it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.212.39.92 (talk) 02:06, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
