My favorite song is gettin it by too short. But after he says “keep making them funky sounds” there’s a big fart noise. I won’t judge cover bands.

Grim. I'm glad I'm around in a time where artists for the most part write their own material.

This is why I always thought the Byrds were uninteresting. Beatles with a 12 string guitar that never evolved their music or could write their own songs well enough

back then people generally didn't write songs; a cover meant you weren't the first person to record something

Besides Nothing Else Matters it's the only song that gets regularly played on my local mainstream rock radio station.
It also has the most viewed live performance video on the band's Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@metallica/videos
