Metallica - /Fade To Black/ Live Nimes 2009 1080p HD_HQ

Francais Pour Une Nuit
10/19/2009

On July 7th of this year we were honored to perform at Arenes de Nimes, the historic Roman amphitheatre in Nimes, France, easily one of the most spectacular venues in the world. We thought it would be a memorable night, so we asked our friends in France to bring along a film crew to document the festivities. The result is "Francais Pour Une Nuit" (translation: "French For One Night"), the DVD of the evening including the full show, interviews with us, and five videos shot by YOU, our buddies in the audience. All this and more will be available starting November 23, 2009!

"Francais Pour Une Nuit" was extra special for us because not only was it filmed in France, but ALL aspects of the project are French as the show was filmed, recorded, and edited with French camera and recording crews, the artwork on the package and special box set (more on that in a minute!) were created by a French design team; even the credits are in French. The only non-French parts: the three Americans and one Dane on stage and the photos shot by Englishman Ross Halfin.

Nimes was one of the greatest metallica concerts in history

[carlo]

The best fade to black live version ever

[mercurius]

Metallica has written so many songs for eternity. And this one belongs to the greatest of all.

[alexandrumihaigeala]

Probably their best live performance..
That double bass, those vocals, that godlike guitar playing.. damn

[multiestonian]

Aaarhhh, this performance was out of this world. It was full of emotion and energy alots of energy!

[brett-spangler]

They're in their 50s and they can still put on some of the best shows.👍🏻

[ICEMANdrake]

Not trying to be a mood killer but this song literally saved my live at one point. I was in a deep depression and when I heard this song, it described everything I felt, I felt like I had no purpose and I knew there was others that felt the same way I did but it didn't feel like it, but this song made me feel it. So thank you Metallica for helping, I'm forever grateful.

[rodrigo-rznu]

I love Metallica, i listen to Metallica since i was 6 when Black album came out.. as a kid i used to spend like 2 hours on a saturday afternoon listening to Live Shit: Binge & Purge on my sofa thinking about my future, i can never get enough of listening to them. They just make sense! God bless Metallica

[midnight]

The last solo gets me everytime, it gives me  goose bumps all over my body <3, epic awesomeness with every meaning the word has .

[Shizuka]

My favorite song, my favorite solo, my favorite band, i love you guys. ;_;

[Jackson-rhdb]

Lars was a beast here! and james' vocals were amazing!

[kutjanus]

holy mother of christ... I went to Nimes in like october 2009... and they were building a stage in the arena and I didn't know what for.. Well now I know...

[shiryu]

This song saved my life, thanks Metallica. Your best song, one of the best song ever, simple is that.

[erikhelkimo]

To all of you who are hating on Kirk's solos and whether this solo is difficult or not:
A solo doesn't have to be insanely fast and doesn't have to be very complicated to be a great solo. This song is my evidence for what I just said.

You are probably just a bunch of jealous idiots who have nothing better to do than saying bad things about a very successful and talented musician.

[rustyduet]

One of, if not the best live shows ever. They were so "ON" for this show. No words can do this performance any justice. Thank you, guys.

[midnight]

The last outro solo 5:29 -- .. is the best outro ever, gets me inside a hurricane of emotions every time i hear it or watch it live, it's beyond explanation, pure genius <3

[HappyMealGiel]

This video 7 years ago proved HD was the superior format. We take so much for granted now.

[TheHmheldinho]

This fade to black is still my Favorit after so many years!!!

[ReeceyBoy_]

James makes it all look so easy the absolute god

[Cubitalipino]

Why are people saying bad things about the solo? He didn't mess it up at the end, it's called improvisation. It happens when you're having fun.
