Metallica‘s “Nothing Else Matters” has surpassed 1 billion views on YouTube, becoming the metal legends’ first track to reach the milestone.

The video for “Nothing Else Matters” was uploaded to YouTube in October of 2009. It was directed by Adam Dubin and edited by Sean Fullan and is made up of clips from the 1992 Metallica documentary A Year And A Half In The Life Of Metallica.

“Nothing Else Matters” originally appeared on Metallica’s 1991 self-titled album, also popularly known as The Black Album, which is being re-released on September 10 as a remastered deluxe box set via the band’s own Blackened Recordings.

The band will also release a 53-artist covers album, dubbed The Metallica Blacklist, on the same day.
