Gretchen @wokkax3.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Here’s a thing I never knew: Apparently the band hates this song and got pressured into writing it and famously never played it live. (Until 2012.) Am I a rube? Escape is a great fucking song. It’s the Call Me Maybe of Metallica. 220
Gretchen @wokkax3.bsky.social · 25/09/2026I think maybe James Hetfield thought the lyrics were dumb. But like. Doesn’t differentiate it from anything else they’ve done. Not penned by Gil Scott-Heron, we get it. 020
