"Sad but True" is a song by American heavy metal band Metallica. It was released in October 1992 as the fifth and final single from their 1991 self-titled album. The music video for the single was released in October 1992.

Music

"Sad but True" is in D Standard tuning, however the song was originally written and demoed in E Standard. Bob Rock, who produced The Black Album, recalled to Musicradar.com: "We were in pre-production, which was uncomfortable because nobody had ever made them go through their songs in such a deliberate way before, and six songs in 'Sad But True' came along. Suddenly, I realized that every song, including this one, was in the key of E. I brought this to the band's attention, and they said, 'Well, isn't E the lowest note?' So I told them that on Mötley Crüe's Dr. Feelgood, which I produced and Metallica loved, the band had tuned down to D. Metallica then tuned down to D, and that's when the riff really became huge. It was this force that you just couldn't stop, no matter what."^[3]

Rock, Hetfield, and Ulrich are all credited as producers, and Randy Staub and his assistant, Mike Tacci.^[4]

-'''Sad But True''' is a [[Metallica]] song of the eponymously named album, ''[[Metallica (album)|Metallica]]'' (also known as ''The Black Album''). The song was released as a single in 1992 with an accompanying [[music video]] to support the band on its then ongoing [[Wherever We May Roam Tour]], and was composed by band members [[James Hetfield]] and [[Lars Ulrich]].
+"'''Sad but True'''" is a song by American [[Heavy metal music|heavy metal]] band [[Metallica]]. It was released in October 1992 as the fifth and final single from their [[Metallica (album)|1991 self-titled album]]. The music video for the single was released in October 1992.
+== Music ==
-The song is based off of a 1978 movie directed by Richard Attenborough starring Anthony Hopkins, entitled "Magic". The movie is about a ventriloquist who is at the mercy of his vicious puppet.
+"Sad but True" is in D Standard tuning, however the song was originally written and demoed in E Standard.  [[Bob Rock]], who produced ''The Black Album'', recalled to Musicradar.com: "We were in pre-production, which was uncomfortable because nobody had ever made them go through their songs in such a deliberate way before, and six songs in 'Sad But True' came along.

-A focal point of the song is its consistent bass riff. It is accompanied by heavy and sludgy, yet melodic guitars, and steady, booming drum beats alongside Hetfield's (at times) harmonious vocals. The guitars are tuned down a full step from the conventional "EADGBE" tuning, adding to the deeper, heavier sound.
+==Track listing==
-Sad But True is one of 5 songs released as a single off the Black Album, and moves toward a power metal groove, rather than the thrash/speed metal scene. The song was included in Metallica's live collaboration with the [[San Francisco Symphony Orchestra]] (conducted by [[Michael Kamen]]), entitled ''[[S&M (album)|S&M]]''.
