The major other snafu of the awards season seems like small potatoes after the Oscars, but perhaps you can still recall how awkward that Metallica and Lady Gaga collaboration at the Grammys was. Unlike the Moonlight creators, Metallica and Gaga, who were derailed by unplugged mics, now have a second chance at redemption: There is existing footage of their dress rehearsal for their Grammys medley, and it’s just been posted to VEVO.
Support them and listen to Gaga and James Hetfield’s snarls as they were meant to be heard; it may make Hetfield feel a little bit better. Watch the rehearsal tape below.
