This is why I love RU-vid comments. I discovered this song through a comment on a iron Maiden live performance of fear of the dark. I love RU-vid for this reason. Keep commenting awesome shit for others to discover guys!
Eins der schönsten und prägnantesten Konzerte auf denen ich jemals war. Ich bin stolz mittlerweile in wacken leben zu dürfen! Noch heute übermannt mich eine Gänsehaut, wenn ich die Version höre!!! @ blind Guardian danke dafür!!!!!
I said it and I’ll say it again. Compared to 2011 and 2016 lives of this song, this just so much better because of the audience, ambience, vocals and sound overall.

@@patriklundsholm514 I remember the crowd doing a back and forth of Spider Schwein and Helga quite regularly. I had a Canadian flag on me so I got a lot of "Blame Canada" thrown my way.
I find in kinda annoying when live singers stop to let the crowd do some. Yeah, I get that they are putting on a show, but I'd rather hear Hansi sing it than the crowd.
I find it an extremely humbling way of integrating the audience - and when the audience performs like they do every time Blind Guardian breaks out The Bard's Song, it's goosebump-inducing. Personally, I think it's awesome when performers let the music unite performers and those that love what they do.
So pull up one of the studio recordings - way better sound quality, objectively speaking, than what you'd get live anyway. Live performances are about more than just the music, it's a whole experience.
I have not cried in years. This single moment, no matter that it was in 2007, reduced me to tears. The passion I felt from this crowd truly moved me. Keep on telling your tales, fellow Bards. PS: Hansi's handsome as hell too!
Quite good job. Don,t care the little mistakes. The essence: enjoy! A work is much better with mistakes with an enjoying musician, than a perfectly done job by a boring, routinly executer (fulfiller).
