Still sampai skang aku suka giler dengar lagu ni...one of the best song in my life.I consider it as one of the song in my soundtrack of life.Lagu ni la yang buat aku minat metallica.
"No Leaf Clover is the eighth song on Metallica's S&M album. The song (along with Minus Human) was one of two new pieces completed for the band's collaboration with the San Francisco Symphony in 1999. It begins with an intro section played by the orchestra, before entering into a clean guitar part by James Hetfield. The rest of the piece alternates between clean verses and choruses backed by heavily distorted guitars.
No Leaf Clover consists of many riffs which Hetfield had created over the years but never used. It wasn't until Michael Kamen approached the band about the album that James completed it.
The term "no leaf clover" is a play on the four leaf clover, which is said to bring good luck. Conversely, Hetfield's lyrics speak metaphorically of believing you have almost reached your goal only to be confronted with another problem:
"Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
Was just a freight train coming your way"
Despite being completed especially for the S & M concert, the band adapted the song to be played without an orchestra using a taped intro section. It was performed without an orchestra for the first time on December 28, 1999 during the kick off of the "M2K Minitour" at the Orange Bowl in Miami, Florida."taken from wikipedia "No Leaf Clover"
