Recommendation

Should you sing it?

With Nothing Else Matters, do not count on the room to do the work; it is better for a singer ready to own the lyric’s point of view. The song has a clearly recurring hook and room to shape the lines without cramming them. Crowd recognition should be strong, but its singalong score of 6/10 suggests the room will mostly wait for the hook.
