https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIf1uMZ7WRw But will you? 2003's Bikerboyz movie saw the band team up with none other than everybody's favourite pitbull-faced rapper Ja Rule to deliver the spectacularly terrible We Did It Again, along with the help of awkward-socialites Swizz Beatz. The result was something that's been received positively ever since, but not from the song itself. Instead in a more hilarious retrospective, the behind the scenes footage of production shows 'Tallica producer Bob Rock sitting - clothed in a lovely cardigan - as Swizz Beatz get their gangster-rap head-nods on and throw out some beatbox'd soundbites. It's like some parent walking in on their child's awkward high school rap-phase, except with millions of dollars behind everything.
3. Metallica By Request Is Yet To Reach Its Potential
The band's latest touring regimen of 'By Request' allows fans to choose entire setlists for the entirety, but so far due to their incredibly diverse fanbase - and the fact that with an act so big it's the general public that are voting for the most part - the songs that have been requested are essentially what the band would have played anyway. It's a pretty risky move for the band being that all the way up to the hours before the gig votes are being counted online, meaning that anything from Dyers Eve to newly-released Ronnie James Dio-tribute Ronnie Rising could be on the cards. But no, we've still got Enter Sandman, One and Sad But True topping the ranks, meaning that unless the people who know their Unforgiven III's from their Thorn Within's get stuck in we'll be getting essentially the same set we always would have throughout the rest of the year. However that change does seem to be happening slightly, as the recent gigs have seen the revitalisation of Thin Lizzy's Whiskey in the Jar alongside Fight Fire With Fire, much to the chagrin of Lars as he has to relearn them again.
