There are plenty of songs that modest chart success when they were originally released but got a significant boost later when they were featured on a TV show or in a movie.
When you think of Metallica and cover songs, certain bands immediately pop into your head: The Misfits, Motorhead and Black Sabbath, just to name a few. A band you might not think of is actually responsible for one of Metallica's most popular cover songs.
