    all u guys that think that enter sandman is a metallica original WAKE-UP !!!
    How can u credit the riff to metallica when all they did was a cover.
    It is a cover of Motorhead. and this is not the only song that they covered of motorhead they have covered many others.

    hmmm ...
    which motorhead song? ... i admit i have not heard all of 'em ... but i sure dont remember anyone sounding like enter sandmand ...

    hey no one posted Megadeth's - "Tornado of souls" or "Hangar 18" ...
    mebbe the ppl in India need to grow up and listen to variety ...
    every1 seems to be writing "Enter Sandman" ... "Stairway to heaven" ...

    b.t.w. coolone ... I have Motorhead's colection ... i guess it is pretty full (around 300MB) but mostly live versions :( ...

    Dude ! If you are talking about ppl in INDIA and their song variety then I guess even Megadeth's is like so ******* common. What do you know about variety ?
    Everybody has their own taste.....

    If you know variety then u should listen to :

    In flames, children of bodom, converge, cryptopsy, Isis, Dark Tranquility, Blind Guardian, Strapping Young Lad and many other

    Megadeth's no variety.....and as far as I know Motorhead..If u know their live collection has many songs which aren't their in albums,,so don't be so sure that u have heard all the songs :rule:
