Description

30 second clip of One by the band Metallica, featuring a news interview overlay before segueing into James Hetfield's signature gravelly voice in the song's breakdown. The news interview, highlighting political turmoil of the time, was expected in grunge metal from the late 1980s into the 1990s. The lyrics at the end of the clip move into the breakdown where the stuttering and jagged guitar riffs pair with lines about a soldier wanting to remove the traumatic memories of war he continues to see.
