Bieber all good, says Ulrich
By Chris Cooke | Published on Thursday 31 October 2013
So what do Metallica think about Justin Bieber recently posting an albeit very short cover of their track ‘Fade To Black’ online, and telling his fans how much he liked the track, and the metal band’s other song ‘One’.
Well, says Lars Ulrich, that’s just fine, because he’s a bit of a Belieber himself. Asked about the Bieber cover by Kerrang! the Metallica drummer said: “Is it possible to have respect for him without being a Belieber? I think the kid’s really talented and obviously to go through what he’s going through at that early age must be a mindfuck”.
He went on: “So the fact that he still goes out there and does it, I admire that and I think he’s super talented, so I guess I am kind of a Belieber. If he likes ‘One’, and Liam Gallagher likes him, OK, there you go”.
