Chris Stapleton Turns METALLICA's "Nothing Else Matters" Into A Country Anthem

This is our third post about Metallica's "Nothing Else Matters" in the last 24 hours, but perhaps this is the best one? Another cover from the upcoming Metallica Black Album covers album, The Metallica Blacklist has surfaced from country superstar, Chris Stapleton.

I will say that he totally made the song his own, and perhaps even improved it? At this point in my Metallica fandom, I would say this is the most overplayed song and I actually enjoyed this rendition, so that's something? Listen below.
