"Nothing Else Matters" is a song by the American heavy metal band Metallica. It was released as the third single from its self-titled fifth studio album, Metallica. The song peaked at number 11 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart as well as top-ten positions on many European charts. "Nothing Else Matters" was featured as a playable track in the music video game Guitar Hero: Metallica. The song has been covered over forty times.

Singer and rhythm guitarist James Hetfield wrote the song (credited to Hetfield/Ulrich) while he was on the phone with his then girlfriend. Since he held the phone with one hand, he plucked the four open strings of a standard E-minor chord with the other, which eventually made up the first two bars of the song. The lyrics were also dedicated to his girlfriend, which talk about being "so close, no matter how far", indicating the bond they shared even when Hetfield was on tour. Initially, the song was not meant to be released, as Hetfield had written it for himself, but only after drummer Lars Ulrich heard it, it was considered for the album.He is the best ballad of all time in Rolling Stone and is the number one greatest song of all time in Kerrang.

Its intro is an E minor arpeggio beginning with the open low E followed by the open G, B and high E strings. It was first rumored, and then confirmed by Hetfield on Classic Albums: Metallica -- Metallica DVD, that he started composing it while he was on the phone with his girlfriend and only had one free hand.

It is one of the few Metallica songs in which Hetfield, not Kirk Hammett, plays the guitar solo, given that Hetfield recorded all rhythm and most harmony tracks on the band's first five albums. Hammett does not play on the studio recording, making it one of two songs in the whole Metallica repertoire, along with Cliff Burton's "(Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth", in which he does not appear.

I thought that perhaps I should search for answers, but I know precisely what is happening to me, it's the most natural feeling in the world, and could be the most important, that is to know what real love is, others try to give their simple advice 'just move on" yeah, it's easy for them to just say, but have they truly lived it? Do they understand that the feelings just don't go away, We keep busy, and time passes, but there are constant reminders, and incredibly vivid dreams absorbed often, and you know you simply cannot lie to yourself, the heart wants what it wants, and no matter how often someone looks to take different steps, if the love was truly real, nothing will ever be the same, that's why its so important to keep your dreams alive, Perhaps the MOST difficult thing to do is miss somebody entirely from within, their heart, their voice, the scent of their body, & taste of their skin, the fun & comfort, their laughter & the emotion shared, It's one thing to be away in your travels, there's always a homecoming, and with that the anticipation alone fuels your energy in dynamic fashion, but to not be with someone whom you share the most incredible & natural connection with, so gripping mentally, physically and emotionally, to have no access to the greatest feeling you know, could be the hardest feeling to absorb, When someone is lost through death, it's painful for sure, but the reality is; they are gone, and your fabulous togetherness lives on in memory and in the steps you take going forward, but when there's such an incredible bond, and connection shared that others just can't understand, nor will they ever, but in fact only you do, and "Nothing Else Matters" to be restricted from something so dynamic, so natural, so comforting and so fulfilling, could be the worse of feelings. "So close, no matter how far" is true, the heart stores everything, "Forever trusting who we are" is compelling enough, there are no substitutes and nothing compares to the amazing captivating effects of the love of your life, and it's something that should be felt in the living years, and as often as possible..~Georgio
