Why do people like Metallica?

Opinion 1

For exactly the same reasons anyone listens to any other sort of music, they like it.

Opinion 2

People listen to heavy metal because they are A. goth B. emo C. People with no friends D. People with no lives and who are depressed all the time for no real reason at all. Sometimes there is. But like many humans do they GET OVER IT! So...please do not listen to that overplayed pre-satanic, balistic, evil, stupid, and un rythymatic music. And for your answer, they listen to it because they have no real sense of music. Metal is not music. Its screetching guitar and screams of people with bad backgrounds. Jazz and r&b is music. It has life, rythym, a beat, and soul.

Opinion 3

Agreed Jazz and R&B is good music... but Metal had it's roots from Jazz and Blues... so even Metal has "life, rhythm, a beat and soul"!

- The guitar is not "screeching", it's distortion...

- "Screams of people with bad backgrounds"? are u saying that only people with good backgrounds can be good musicians? If I recall Michael Jackson had one of the worst childhoods in history... he went on to become a legend...

- There are different sub-genres even in Metal... "screams" usually occur in the extreme forms of metal.

Opinion 4

People listen to Metal because it's their choice. Usually Metalheads open up to other metalheads because their ideas, no matter how crazy, are almost always accepted by fellow metalheads.

Metal is a way to release one's anger and frustration without actually harming anyone.

In my opinion Heavy Metal is one of the greatest genres in the music industry.

It talks about corrupt politicians, politics, third world countries and how they are exploited, the way people actually feel, anger, frustration, love, lust, violence, religion, and even death... in great detail!

Opinion 5

I listen to Heavy Metal, and if you saw me you wouldn't think that I'm an emo, goth or any of those things, I believe that you shouldn't say a music is "not music" just because you don't like it, we all have our own tastes in music and that's the way it should be. "So please do not listen to that overplayed pre-satanic, balistic, evil, stupid, and un rythymatic music"what right do you have to say that? and it's not stupid, or evil or in fact any of those things, please think before you type and open up to other types of music. My dad taught me it's not right to say a music type is bad just because you don't like it, all you have to do is not listen to it.

Opinion 6

I have a life, and I'm not goth or emo. I love any kind of music, and this includes: HEAVY METAL AND SCREAMO!

Opinion 7

Personally I'm one of those people who listen to metal and metal only. I don't listen to most other music and I'm not satanic, crazy or have no friends. I go to a Catholic school and believe in god and stuff. Actually I got into this music because of a friend who also went to my school. I also listen to it because I don't feel like being one of the millions of white kids who listen to rap and pop just because its popular. I listen to it because I like it.

Opinion 8

I love heavy metal and also believe in God and stuff! Actually it was my CHRISTIAN uncle and cousin who introduced me to it. They listen to because they LIKE it. I know I do.

Opinion 9

People listen to the music that they can associate with in some way, whether it be with the lyrics or the actual music itself. Not all goths listen to metal, that's a fallacy. And depressed people do not just get over it. Talk to a psychologist and find out how people are affected by depression before making that assumption.

Can you see with contact lenses underwater?

yes, i heard that you can if you keep your eyes closed underwater and rub them after you come up, so no water gets in your eyes. Also another good thing to do would be to wear goggles...im going to try this today!! so good luck with yours...

-No you can not , I have went to the optometrist and he said do not swim with your contacts on . The pool has bacteria even if has chlorine inside and you think it can kill all the bacteria but it can't , the ones it can't kill it will go into your contacts and it will give you an infection . I would not try this , it can get your eye infected and it will hurt .

Yes you can with disposables contacts and swim goggles

What is the song The unforgiven by Metallica about?

It is quite obvious if you listen to the lyrics.So let me explain my interpretation and what I got from the song and it's meaning. I'm your pain when you repay you know its sad but true. Well, have you ever been a person who takes out a loan and now has to pay it? It's Sad but true, you minus well say that now you work for that creditor and they own you to a certain extent which is very true. You go to work for them. Ok, here's more: a scapegoat is someone who you think takes all the blame and pain in life for your actions when they had little to do with perhaps your choices or mistakes. It's not owning up to you actions and consequences and making someone else take the fall. People like that need to take a good look in the mirror. But what is ultimately true is that we all act and do things wrong because we are humanity with faults and no one can be perfect. Sad But True.

However, at least you can listen to this song and enjoy the pain and grief, then you get over it after the song is complete and live a normal life.

What is spritual nirvana?

Answer

Nirvania is just a beatiful magical land in Dharmic religions, which is simply made up a massive ocean of golden souls(atmans/jivas) looking like candel flames. It is the true home,free of suffering and problems for the soul, where it lives peacfully in such great sleep it takes no notice of its surroundings!

Nirvania can also mean when the soul escapes the horrible and fake cycle of life and death in maya,after its human life and is freeded by the sant/Satguru and taken back to its home called Nirvania. Moskah is another word to describe this process.

Source;The journey of the soul by Radha Soami Beas

Nirvana means the release from suffering and rebirth that brings inner peace. The origin of the word Nirvana seems to come from a word that means "blown out" or "cool" suggesting the fires of desire have been extinguished.
