El irascible y malhumorado jovencito Dave Mustaine presenta en 1985 su placa Killing Is My Business... And Business is Good en sociedad tratando de dejar en claro que Metallica es sólo un copy/paste de su mente creativa, sarcástica y violenta llena de talento musical que sería uno de los pilares del Thrash Metal.
Sin embargo, su ego y ganas de revancha sólo lograron que Metallica fuera aún más famosos frente a la audiencia y los nuevos seguidores. Incluso, críticos y hasta los auditores casuales hicieron que la otra banda fuera la más grande de la historia y eso no cambiará aunque Metallica haga 5 discos de cumbia villera y 3 de Reggaeton.
Esa mala suerte se plasmó en la primera canción de aquel mítico disco de 1985. El tema Last Rites / Loved to Death es la historia de un jovencito friendzoneado que al no tener el amor de la dulce e inocente chica que ama, no encuentra mejor forma de desquitarse que matándola. El problema, es que cuando llega al infierno a pagar por sus pecados se la encuentra cara a cara. Y se da cuenta que ella no era tan santa como pensaba, sólo era una chica que se acostaba con todos menos con él. Pero como dice el dicho, los errores se pagan caro aquí y en la quebrada del ají.
Letras /Lyrics
Your body's empty now as I hold you
Now you're gone, I miss you but I told you
I remember bad times more than good
Oh, there's no coming back even if we could
Now you're gone, I miss you but I told you
I remember bad times more than good
Oh, there's no coming back even if we could
I loved you to death
I loved you to death
I loved you to death
If I can't have you then no one will
And since I won't, I'll have to kill
My only love, something I've never felt
Now you've gone to heaven and I'll burn in hell
And since I won't, I'll have to kill
My only love, something I've never felt
Now you've gone to heaven and I'll burn in hell
I loved you to death
I loved you to death
I loved you to death
I loved you to death, oh
I loved you to death
I loved you to death
I loved you to death, oh
Oh, and now I'm down below, what do I see?
You didn't go to heaven, you're down in hell with me
And now you're coming back, baby, take me please
I really think I would if you weren't such a sleaze
I loved you once before, you kept me on a string
I'd rather go without than take what you would bring
You didn't go to heaven, you're down in hell with me
And now you're coming back, baby, take me please
I really think I would if you weren't such a sleaze
I loved you once before, you kept me on a string
I'd rather go without than take what you would bring
I loved you to death
