Talk:Nothing Else Matters

message: Not sure if this is noteworhty or not, but her cover was released as a single here in Canada and it had James Hetfield vocals also. I don't know if this was put together electronically or whether Hetfield actually recorded it with her (the album version is just Bif Naked). Just wondering if this notable?   —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.152.156.228 (talk) 00:28, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

message: Metallica had ballads on their albums before, but I think it should be specified that this was a "love ballad" or at least a more typical one, as Metallica's ballads before this dealt with far more serious issues than "missing your girlfriend" (Sanitarium was about insanity, Fade to Black was about suicide, and One was based on the novel Johnny Got His Gun). So, the issue wasn't so much the inclusion of a ballad as much as it was the inclusion of what could be perceived as a "love song". Cronos12390 23:33, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

message: No it's not!  I could play this whole song straight through less than a few months after I bought my guitar.  It's just natural major and minor chords, nothing hard at all.  And I'm going to remove this statement from the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by PearlTheater (talk • contribs) 
:"A few months" means you're not a total beginner. Also, the solo isn't so trivial as you claim it to be. --Army1987 15:31, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Does anyone else think that this song has similarities to Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata? I'm not saying that Nothing Else Matters has anything to do with the Moonlight Sonata but I think there is the same "catch"... --Insist 13:49, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The minuet at the beginnigs of the second movement (labelled "Allegretto" in the score) is indeed in 3/4. However, that's about the only striking similarity I can see...am I missing something? --Klaws (talk) 15:14, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

message: It doesnt make sense to put "Power Ballad" as a genre. There is no such genre.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kgardner1123 (talk • contribs) 23:13, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Power Ballad, No 

message: "Its intro is an E minor arpeggio beginning with E on the D string, open G, B and high E strings. It was first rumoured, and then confirmed by Hetfield on Classic Albums: The Black Album DVD, that he started composing it while he was on the phone with his girlfriend and only had one free hand."
If you only have one hand you can't very well fret the second fret on the D-string. The song is actually played by hitting the open low E. I am changing it. Raistlinx17 (talk) 19:02, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

message: Why does the article only list the chart position of the song in Germany in 2010? That seems only semi relevant to me and is a fact that changes. It's also not listed for the other countries in this way. Shouldn't the highest chart position be mentioned? The following source states that in 2000 the song actually hit position 2 in the German single charts.

message: Since when did Hammett not perform on this song? Is there any reliable source for it. I know the article says that it came from an interview with James Hetfield, but there is no source for that. And anybody could have just made that up and added it. So until a reliable source is found or shown, I am going to remove this. --Blaguymonkey (talk) 23:03, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
