[Metallica is asked to record a radio promo]
Lars Ulrich : Hey it's Lars from Metallica. I'm about to stick 50 grand up your ass...
James Hetfield : ...One dollar at a time.

James Hetfield : What? Who?

Lars Ulrich : When I was running this morning, I was thinking about seeing you today, and the word "fuck" just comes up so much. Seriously, it's really true.
James Hetfield : Is that in anger?
Lars Ulrich : No, just, "Fuck!" "Fuck." I just think you're so fucking self-absorbed. And what makes it worse is that you always talk about... You always talk about me. You use the word "control" and "manipulation" a lot. I think you control on purpose, and I think you control inadvertently. I think you control by the rules you always set. I think you control by how you always judge people. I think you control by your absence. I think you control all of this even when you're not here. I don't understand who you are. I don't understand the program. I don't understand all this stuff, okay? I realize now that I barely knew you before. And all these rules and all this shit, man, this is a fucking rock 'n' roll band. I don't want fucking rules. I understand that you need to leave at four. I respect it. But don't tell me I can't sit and listen to something with Bob at 4:15 if I want to. What the fuck is that? You know, I don't wanna end up like Jason, okay? I don't want to be pushed away. I don't want it to happen twice. Let's do it, and let's fucking do it full-on or let's not do it at all. Fuck. See? Fuck. Fuck!
[screams in James' face]
Lars Ulrich : Fuck!
