Best Metallica Song?

So I'm not a huge Metallica guy anymore. I've gotten older, tastes have changed, and different types of music are more appealing to me these days. That said, Metallica is one of those bands that left an impression on a lot of us. I remember exactly where I was sitting when 911 happened, where I was when the Indian Ocean earthquake happened, what I was doing when Emmitt broke the rushing record, and where I was the first time I head Kill 'Em All back in 83. It was unlike anything I've ever heard and a prelude to one of the most influential rock bands in history.

Yesterday while mowing my grass in the oppressive Texas heat I decided to cycle through my old neglected Metallica playlist. Again tastes change, and I find myself skipping through songs that I used to really love and being drawn instead to songs that maybe I wasn't as big a fan of in my youth. So as of this red hot minute what's the best Metallica song?

I'm gonna go with...Fade To Black

I love you all like brothers, but anybody saying Enter Sandman is the best Metalica song ever is dead to me.

Master of Puppets is the only acceptable answer to this question, and I don't want anybody to argue with me or I'll have to put you on 'ignore' in my head, forever.

Enter Sandman is a great song, but I agree. Definitely not the best. Master of Puppets is an incredible song too, one of my favorites, but to be honest with you. It's not even my favorite on that album! Battery and Orion most likely are. Hell, there isn't a non-great song on that entire album! Leper Messiah, Disposable Heroes, Welcome Home, The Thing That Should Not be, >>>DAMAGE INC<<<.

That is one of the best albums in history and Ride the Lightning is right there with it. Name a single only decent song on either of those albums. Even their other top albums Kill'em All, Black, And Justice for All, do not come close to those two albums. They are the epitome of perfection.
