Enter Sandman 

Enter Sandman is a song by the American Thrash Metal band "Metallica" released in 1991 . It is the first song form the 5th album called by the community "The Black Album" but the real name is the band's name. The single reached number 16 on the US Billboard Hot 100, and was released 2 weeks as a single before the album came out. The song lasts for 5 minutes and 32 seconds. The community is split on this song, some say its overrated and overplayed. Others say it's a masterpiece and there is no in-between. This is by far the most recognizable song from Metallica.

Sandman = derogatory word aimed at Arabs for the most part
Them Arabs are from the desert, they’re known as Sandman or SandN*****, either term is most definitely very derogatory towards these folks from this part of the world. Equivalent to folks calling Asians chinks, which is bad, however, Sandman or SandN***** is far worse.

The Enter Sandman Effect 

When a band's most successful song (usually not they're best) becomes they're only known song among non fans.
Joe: "Hey what's your favorite Metallica song?"
Alex: "Oh you know Enter Sandman."
Joe: " Really? I think Fade to Black or Master of Puppents is better."
Alex: "I've never heard those ones."
Joe: "The Enter Sandman Effect." *sigh*

BEAT THE SANDMAN 

When you start masturbating as soon as your sleep meds start kicking in and finish before you pass out.
Took 4 PM's last night and "Beat the sandman" to dream world.
