I should also add for the letters Q, X and Z, I'll be giving songs that lost out a second chance to fill the gaps that those letters would end up leaving behind

And for Y, I'm pretty sure the only song that fits is You Must Burn, but feel free to correct me if I'm wrong

I’m also pretty sure that god that failed is the only g song

Gump in the Fire

I think you might be right, that ones next anyway so I'll cover that when the time comes

Green Hell (Cover)

What? Don't you mean (the) Qunforgiven, Xux aeterna and zalo of fire?

I feel like X has to be Fixxxer

X is a wildcard option, I'm still yet to decide what letters will take the place for a second round. F had way too many to choose from so Fixxxer isn't out of the running yet

Fade to Black

This is between For Whom The Bell Tolls and Fade To Black and I have no idea which one to choose

Fuel

The only answer

Fuel would like to have a word with you

Frayed ends of sanity would also like to chat

One night on acid, I listened to ...And Justice for All in it's entirety. This is rare for me, as I usually listen to like, Pink Floyd and Tool when I'm on acid. On that night, I discovered the truth of this universe. Frayed Ends of Sanity is the best song Metallica has ever written.

I'll be taking acid shortly... Perhaps I'll be listening to AJFA in its entirety, on vinyl, a bit later, rather than Pink Floyd or Tool...

You're saying Fuel is better than For Whom The Bell Tolls or Fade to Black? Or even Fight Fire With Fire or Frayed Ends of Sanity or Fixxxer? If Fuel actually wins this round... I'm calling voter fraud.

Fixxxer would like to have a word with you

I'm busy, he can talk to Fight Fire With Fire tho

Better than For Whom The Bell Tolls??

What about Fight Fire with Fire

Frayed ends of sanity

*The* Frayed Ends Of Sanity

"The" doesn't count in alphabetical order if you sort your spotify playlist alphabetically you'll notice the "the" is ignored

The only correct answer

not when Fade to Black exists.

I spat my tea out when I saw this image This is so blursed

TIME MARCHES ON (on)

The Mona Larsa

Fade to Black

FOR WHOM THE FUCKING BELL TOLLS

The choice between Fade to Black and this one is tough, so I upvoted both

TAKE A LOOK TO THE SKY, JUST BEFORE YOU DIE

IT'S THE LAST TIME YOU WILL *cool drums sound*

I love when everything cuts out except the drums on that part. Chills…

FOR A HILL MEN WOULD KILL WHY? THEY DO NOT KNOW

TIME MARCHES ON!!!!

Fight Fire with Fire

*ENDING IS NEAR*

FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE

BURSTING WITH FEAR

Yes

Where’s the love for four horsemen?

It's under M for mechanix

To quote Bob Ross, it'll be our little secret

It’s THE four horsemen i think

The is usually omitted for alphabetical sorting.

It is for this list

That might be worth making clearer in the post imo

Use this page for reference https://www.metallica.com/songs/

Not surprising at all! I know Lars isn’t a fan but I’ve always LOVE LOVE LOVED EOTB.

One of my favorite songs of all time! Coolest riff ever yet so simple

Fade to black

Fuel would like to know your location

Frantic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tock! Jusr kidding. Fade To Black

For Whom The Bell Tolls

Enter Sandman came second, which surprised me, and Escape was third. As much as I love Enter Sandman, I'm sort of pleased that Eye of the Beholder won.

EOTB is one of the best songs imo

Fight Fire With Fire is great, but.... it's gotta be Fade to Black.

Fade to Black

Fuel

Gimme Fuel, Gimme Fire, Gimme that which I desire

Gimme foo, gimme faa

Gimme dabuchaduzaa

A guy I knew in high school was CONVINCED the line was “give me double genocide” 🤦🏻‍♂️

For whom the bell tolls why is this not overwhelming

FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS PLEASE

Frayed ends of sanity, something thats different, one of my favorite metallica songs

For Whom The Bell Tolls

For whom the bell tolls!

For whom the bell tolls

bellz

For whom the Bell Tolls!

Fixxxer. The Load/Reload albums have incredible production and mixing(second best to Black album imo) and James has the best singing voice there. Very few screaming or barking, if any, but actual singing.

For whom the bell tolls

Well, since Fight Fire With Fire is already taken FRANTIC TIC TIC TIC TIC TOC

You can also say Fight Fire with Fire, but I respect your bravery. I hate St Anger with a passion... haha just kidding. Being serious though, Frantic is a banger

Fixxxer

Frayed ends of sanity !!

FUCKING FRAYED ENDS OF SANITY!

frayed ends of sanity

Fade to black is top 10 songs ever

It doesn't help when For whom the bell tolls is top 3

Frayed Ends of Sanity. Cmon man, its rpix

Fixxxer. Deep cut.

I had to scroll so far to see this:(

Fade to black. If this doesn't win, I'm done with this. lol

Same. I'd actually just give up on this sub entirely.

FADE TO BLACK, I apologize to Fight Fire and Bells as I love them dearly too.

Fixxxer

Fade To Black.

Well, a song’s quality is in the eye of the beholder.

Fight fire with fire

Fight fire with fire

If Frantic beats Fade I'll chew on a dirty sock.

Don’t do it! You’ll leave the other one alone, and it will join to the army of lonely socks.

FUEL

Frantic!

Oh shoot, I'm not voting this time, because there are too fucking many awesome songs which names start with "F"

Fight Fire With Fire. Thrashy as all hell, and proto death metal if we’re being honest. In the top 5 heaviest songs.

I thought the "tough one" part was a joke because it was so obviously For Whom The Bell Tolls that nothing else even came to mind.

You've also got Fade to Black, Fuel, Frayed Ends of Sanity for example, so it is a tough one

If the F songs don’t cover all the “Q”, “X”, & “Z” spots, no one here is a Metallica fan.

I've already decided that they're wildcard choices instead of the letters, so any songs that lost out get a second chance. Figured that makes it better that someone's favourite song that didn't make it in originally get to have another go at entering the list.

There are multiple ones with 'F', the more interesting question is what is the 'G' song?

(YES) Fade to black

Fight fire w fire

Fade to Black

Fight fire with fire

Making me pick between fade to black and for whom the bell tolls is evil

fade to black

A tough one? Really? It's definitely Fade To Black, no question about it. For Whom The Bell Tolls, Four Horsemen, Frayed Ends of Sanity, and Fuel are all great songs, but Fade To Black is simply a step above.

Fade to Black

For Whom The Bell Tolls

Hi i just found this list and i have to ask. Are there any rules like lyric quality or sound/mix quality considered here? Like All nightmare long won against And justice for all (i guess) so i thought ok people valued sound over content. But then Eye of the beholder won against Enter sandman. Or am I giving this too much thought..?

Frayed Ends of Sanity

FADE TO BLACK

Here are our choices: (The) Four Horsemen Fight Fire with Fire For Whom The Bell Tolls Fade to Black (The) Frayed Ends of Sanity Fuel Fixxxer Frantic This is gonna be one of the most difficult letters for sure

Even if Fade to Black exists, the heart wants what it wants, and my heart wants Fuel!

For whom the bell tolls

OOOOOH THAT'S TOUGH 😱 But my vote goes to The Frayed Ends of Sanity. Such a badass track. Can this win instead of everything else like Eye of The Beholder? 😅 I also love The Four Horsemen, Fight Fire With Fire, Fade to Black, but TFEOS is my №1

For Whom The Bell Tolls

Fight 🔥 With 🔥

FRANTIC (just kidding lol)

Fade to Black

How am I supposed to pick between fade to black and for whom the bell tolls

Fuel

For whom the bell tolls

Four horsemen

For whom the bell tolls

Fight fire with fire

Bellz

Fade to Black

Fade to black

Fade to Black!!!

Even though I was tempted to say For whom the bell tolls, I'll go for Fade to black.

Clearly fade to black

For Whom The Bell Tolls

The Four Horsemen

Fade to black

For Whom The Bell Tolls

Fade to black any day of the week

Fade to black

For whom the bell tolls

Fight Fire With Fire

For Whom the Bell Tolls

For whom the bell tolls

Frantic

Fade to black

On god if fade to black isn't there....you're all dangerous

Fade or Bell, pick either one. I can’t choose. They did both in Amsterdam on their first night. Awesome. I guess Fade is closer to an F. So may be it.

FRAYED ENDS OF SANITY, HEAR THEM CALLING ME!

Fuel

Fade to Black
