Enter Sandman-Metallica

If there is one Metallica song everyone should know, it is "Enter Sandman". Its throbbing rhythm and catchy melody have earned it a place on top of many lists. Departing from Metallica's traditional thrash-style metal and theming the lyrics more as a fantasy story as opposed to their usual ranting against the dark side of humanity, "Enter Sandman" is more friendly toward casual listeners than most of Metallica's other pieces. For this reason, I place it above of "Master of Puppets" as the Metallica song everyone should know.
