  • Casey from Phoenix, ArizonaIt is not a song scrutinizing Christianity.
  • Jeff from Austin, Tx"Possession" is the other song on that album that Hetfield sang on. It's even more obvious on that one. It's a great song too.
  • Billy from Cresco, PaDamn...I had no idea that was hetfield
  • Baldrick from Beograd, Yugoslaviayeah, Hetfield's obviously a fan - noticed how much Enter Sandman riff sounds alike to this one?
