Which Metallica song from The Black Album reached number one in Denmark?

"Nothing Else Matters" was the Metallica song from The Black Album that reached number one in Denmark.

Released as the album's third commercial single in 1992, the song became one of Metallica's most internationally successful recordings. It reached number six on the UK Singles Chart and placed in the top ten in several European countries, with Denmark giving it the top position referenced here.

James Hetfield wrote the song while touring, initially treating it as a private piece rather than a planned Metallica release. Its open-string guitar introduction, orchestral arrangement, and intimate lyric made it markedly different from the band's more aggressive material. Producer Bob Rock played guitar on the studio recording, and Kirk Hammett does not appear on the original track.

The song's popularity sometimes leads to a mistaken assumption that it was the album's first single. That distinction belongs to "Enter Sandman." "Nothing Else Matters" instead became the record's major ballad and one of the band's most recognizable songs.
