"Hallowed Be Thy Name" is the final track on Iron Maiden's 1982 album The Number of the Beast. The song was written by bassist Steve Harris and has been acclaimed as one of the greatest heavy metal songs of all time and is also considered one of the band's signature songs. "Hallowed Be Thy Name" has remained in almost all of the band's set-lists since the album's recording, the only exceptions being the Maiden England World Tour 2012-14, and the second leg of the Book of Souls World Tour in 2017. Allmusic describes it as "perhaps the most celebrated of the band's extended epics; it's the tale of a prisoner about to be hanged, featuring some of Harris' most philosophical lyrics." Several band-members have since stated that it is one of their favourite tracks, with Bruce Dickinson describing it as "fantastic" and that performing it live is like "narrating a movie to the audience.
The Number of the Beast is the third studio album by English heavy metal band Iron Maiden. It was released on 22 March 1982 in the United Kingdom by EMI Records and in the United States by Harvest and Capitol Records. The album was their first to feature vocalist Bruce Dickinson and their last with drummer Clive Burr.
The Number of the Beast was met with critical and commercial success, and became the band's first album to top the UK Albums Chart and reach the top 40 of the US Billboard 200. The album produced the singles "Run to the Hills" and "The Number of the Beast", the former of which became the band's first top-ten UK single. The album was also controversial, particularly in the United States, due to the religious references in its artwork and the title track's lyrics. Since the release of The Number of the Beast, "The Beast" has become an alternate name for Iron Maiden and was later used in the titles of some of their compilations and live releases, including Best of the Beast and Visions of the Beast.

@James_Russell 11 месяцев назад

This is it, man. You found the holy grail of "HBTN" live performances. 😆 For a recommendation of a rather obscure gem from Maiden- "The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg" This really doesn't get the play because of the era the song was released, but when one listens to it, you simply cannot only listen once. You have to put it on loop. Really one of my favorites from Maiden. Catchy riffs, amazing solo from Dave Murray (song was even written by Murray) and transitions that will put a smile on your face. Bruce's vocals are just amazing. He really delivers this one with deep lyrics... I could go on but I'll stop. 😉

My favorite performances of this song would be the ones I have attended, hahaha. If you wanna check some crazy audience engament, check their 2000 Rock in Rio, with quarter million people as audience (1985 Rock in Rio was 350.000 people); some tracks to check from there could be "Fear of the Dark", "The Clansman", "Dream of Mirrors", to name a few.

The song writing, musicianship and talent of ALL of them is crazy. Bruce is the best frontman in metal IMO. Ozzy, Dio, Rob Halford and Ian Gillan are up there. Check out Rime of the Ancient Mariner, live in New Jersey. Dance of Death live in Chile, The Clansman live in Rock in Rio 2001, Wrathchild live at same concert and Paschendale live.

@wm-nu1yf 11 месяцев назад

This was recorded at the Hammersmith Odeon in London, March 20, 1982. Not sure what the social climate was over there at the time. I was 10, but still remember certain people here in the US freaking out about this album and calling them satanists and all that. Not usually a fan of live versions of songs, but Iron Maiden are frequently the exception. Live After Death was also a really good live album from them.

@HarryFlashmanVC 11 месяцев назад

I was 12 in 1982, in Edinburgh Scotland, we didn't have the 'Satanic panic' here, the UK doesn't have the religious puritanical history of the USA, in general. I rember 1982 and I suspect most parents were quite OK with Metal, they were more worried about punk! Remember, we'd just had the Sex Pistols

@HarryFlashmanVC 11 месяцев назад

@wm-nu1yf I'm a practicing Catholic, having said that, those who lost their heads over this probably think that I'm a million times worse for being Catholic! Incidentally, Nicko is a devout Christian. The medaevil church banned the use of tritonic intervals and labeled it the 'devil's interval' purely because it sounded spooky. The 'Satanic sounds' panic of the 80s was a great example of mass hysteria which had real world consequences because it led to the Satanic abuse trials, the nearest thing to a witch hunt we have had in recent times and which was ironically most aggressively pursued by atheist social workers and courts. Public hysteria is a real problem in our society, especially where we have made the media our priests and social media the pulpit.

@langdalepaul 11 месяцев назад

I think my parents were a little worried that I was listening to a band called Black Sabbath, but there was nothing approaching that kind of satanism hysteria here in the UK.

@@langdalepaul My parents understood that a lot of that was just marketing. They got me Motley Crue's Shout at the Devil album for my 12th birthday in 1984. It was the original run with the pentagram on the cover. They were somewhat religious, but weren't the lunatics who were freaking out about everything. Even in those days in the bible belt, it was really a minority of people who were just loud about everything. Same thing now. Most people don't care about whatever, but you have the "hey look at me, I'm outraged" crowd which get all the media coverage, making things seem worse than they really are.

Well... at least until the social serviced, police and courts initiated a modern witch hunt in the Satanic abuse scandals of the late 1980s which saw innocent parents arrested, kids seized and jail sentences handed down until years later it was all debunked as utter nonsense. Interestingly perpetrated by secular and mostly atheist authorities. It was a disgrace. It took over a decade for one family to be reunited. The worst examples were on Orkney

Great reaction! This IS the best version of IM-Hallowed be t n. I would guess this is one the earliest shows for IM after the release of the album The number of the beast. They play it very close to the album version, because that's what they have rehearsed. It's when the band played the song for many many times there is some small addings and and differences developed. This song is used to be played at a redicilous high tempo, especially close to the tour endings.

@talismanmia2537 11 месяцев назад

When you consider body of work stretched over 40 years, I don't think anyone compares to Dickinson (or Maiden). If you don't put a lot of merit on total body of work, then I guess that's a different discussion. Saw this song performed in fall of 1982 a few shows before they were done warming up for Priest, and saw Maiden a few weeks back in Prague. Completely blown away by how well they've held up individually and as a band. Might have been the best I've ever heard Dickinson sound, and I've seen them 20 times.

For me, Bruce is the Freddie/Michael of metal. There are equally great voices. And there are equally great performers but to have both is unbelievable! His energy, he’ll the whole bands, is unmatched. Now you’ll have to do a later Live performance of one of their songs. Rock in Rio, Flight 666, Toronto ‘08. I would recommend Fear of the Dark from Rock in Rio!! Or maybe Rime of the Ancient Mariner from Flight 666. They may have more energy now!

On this tour in Australia, they were the headline act. Supported by an Aussie band called The Boys. Myself and 2 mates travelled 3 hours by train to see them. We were 14. It was at the Capital Theatre in the middle of Sydney. We got there and walked up the steps and stopped to survey the scene. There were a lot of bike gang types dressed in black with plenty of leather and hair etc. Beer in every hand and very dank smoke moving in clouds. 😂 I said to my mates “if just one of our mothers were here we’d be dragged home”.😂 Maiden blew us away, red hot show, they played multiple encores, just about every song from 3 albums. The energy was amazing. I lost my voice for days from singing along. This clip just takes me back.

1982, this was the second album that Bruce did. My brothers were major Maiden fans, which made me a Maiden fan. Now, I did not get to see them on this tour. My dad said I was too young at the time at 11, but I would get to see them live in 86 during their Somewhere on Tour Tour. Iron Maiden had put out 4 albums at this point, so we knew Iron Maiden very well in the US at the time. You have to understand in 82, many bands showed up. The big concert in Cal. With Motley Crue, Quiet Riot, Triumph, Judas Priest, Scorpions, and Van Halen took place. Also, this is the time Ozzy and Randy Rhoads were touring and his passing. So Metal was exploding big time. Was a great time to be a kid with older brothers at this time.

Hey there, I’m an Australian 63 year old guy who went to see my favourite metal band in 1982 and saw this very line-up of Maiden, and I’m telling you straight, these guys were the best at what they did. Although they started in 1975 it wasn’t until 1982 when they had the band they were destined to be. Yeah there were certain changes between the years and unbelievably they molded together as though it was meant to be. Bruce came from a band I was really into called “Samson” but OMG, when he joined Iron Maiden they became a World Wide Sensation within the metal industry and genre. Unfortunately Clive Burr, their drummer was suffering from Altzmeimer’s disease and had to give it up. But Nicko McBrain joined the band and they created an amazing legacy for the metal genre. What an incredible band they have always been ✨💪👏👏👏🦘❤🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

@evil_chuck 11 месяцев назад

I agree that most of the public did not know what the song was about, because this concert was held prior to the release of the album. Even so, they had been playing it since December 1981 when they first performed it at the Ruskin Arms in London. You can find the audio of the concert, in which The Prisoner and Run To The Hills also played (all from the album The Number Of The Beast) and in November 81 they played 22 Acacia Avenue and Children Of The Damned, at the Rainbow in London. Two other songs belonging to The Number Of The Beast, so even though they weren't known to the mass audience, I think they were known to the kids in London, because the bootlegs were already scattered all over the city. PS: by the way, if you chose this video because of the definition, I wanted to tell you that I recently found one that I think looks even a little better. Take a look if you want!

Francis, I recently stumbled across your channel, and I appreciate the commentary you provide. It's several steps above most reaction videos. I will suggest a song by a band that is largely unknown, especially in the US. They released their first album in 2002, and they released their 8th album last year. With this album, they are finally gaining some notoriety and have made their first tour in the US. I am pretty confident this song will score high ratings from you on every dimension. The song is Master the Hurricane by Visions of Atlantis. Thanks for the effort you put into this channel.

Iron Maiden are also one of those bands that practice the song until they can play it live in the studio straight thru and rarely record the tracks separately and then add the pieces together. Look at some of their Abby Road recordings for their albums in the early 2000's. Chris

We did pretty good and the majority of the songs off the new album were new to us (except for Aces High, it was hard to stay clear of that one.) The concert we went to was at the Long Beach Arena, where they filmed the "Live After Death" video. Needless to say we were blown away, it was one of the best experiences going to concerts I ever had. Watch the video and imagine seeing "Powerslave" and "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" performed without ever hearing the songs. Gives me chills thinking about it to this day.

@damot1051 11 месяцев назад

The album and this track was recorded January/February 1982. The Beast on the Road tour started at the end of February. The album released on the 22nd March and this was recorded at Hammersmith in London couple of days prior to the album launch so it was new to the audience (unless they'd been to an earlier show on the tour). I think the reason it sounds so similar to the recording is because they were literally weeks apart. This is the best live version imo. I do believe they were support on this tour only in the US and headlined themselves in the UK/

P.S. Within the Rock/Metal Band genre “David Lee Roth” is probably the best example of an entertainer, great vocal performance too, but yeah Freddie, Bruce Dickinson and Dio are the singer’s singers… 😉👏👏👏

I was 14 on release, but in Australia-from England. We laughed at the satanic panic from afar \m/

Also back during dont say no. But nobody was butt hurt, we would party and cops left us alone because we didnt destroy property or block traffic. Just went to the river and had a good time. God i miss the 80s

Dude. Maiden is one of the all time greats and one of my all-time favorite metal bands. I've seen them live many times beginning in the early 80s and as early as a few years ago. You need to go to a show. They are still rocking strong and sound amazing still live. They don't use live tracks for Bruce's voice.

@juanaguirre4833 11 месяцев назад

Just awesome. I'd definitely put Bruce and Dio up there with anybody as the greatest frontmen in all of metal. Bruce is INSANE though, when you consider how long he's been doing it at such a high lever and the amount of running and jumping he does on stage (see later videos) even in his 60's and after conquering throat cancer...the guy isn't human. Oh, and did I mention he is a world class fencer, airline pilot, archeologist, and best selling author as well? Mind Boggling! On a side note and speaking of impressive vocals, you really should check Helloween live from their United Alive performances. They reunited with their former singers and guitarist and now perform with 2 main vocalists and 3 guitarists (who are out of this world good): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XJwuqL0IJqw.html

Bruce is the king of metal and iron maiden are by far one of the best bands out there

@alisonwarren2233 11 месяцев назад

Yes, he is signaling to get the monitors to be turned up, as at the time there were no in ear monitors. Also Bruce still does not use in ear monitors, he only has ear plugs in when he is performing.

Check out the live concert from Rock In Rio 2001... any of the songs. "Fear of the Dark" for example.

Yes he is asking that his monitor(s) be turned up. You can sound check all you want, but once you add all of those bodies in there the acoustics change.

The fun fact here is, this is before the release of the album, so most of the crowd are listening to this for the first time ever - Steve Harris said "something unconcievable today".

@ViolentMessiah666 10 месяцев назад

A few bits of context: This concert took place in Hammersmith in West London so not much Satanic Panic. Iron Maiden are from East London & the song is from their 3rd album "The Number of The Beast" so the crowd would have been familiar with them even though they were the opening act because they cut their teeth in the local pubs & clubs in the late 70s before releasing their debut album in 1980. Other live versions worth checking out are "Live after Death" "A Real Live/Dead One" "Live at Donnington '92" "Rock in Rio" & "Flight 666" to hear the evolution of the song over about a 25 year timespan 🤘

Lots of respect to you, that you watch the 1982 version! Thats the real Iron Maiden exp. EDIT: Wrote this in the beginning of the video then he explained. MORE respect.

Eagle Fly Free-Helloween(studio version), it will change your life. As good or better than anything made today. Greatest metal band on the planet. Up the Irons! Oh and Rime of the Ancient Mariner(studio version) will change your life.

@archstanton3636 11 месяцев назад

To answer your question it was ..... Iron Maiden that was on top of the game back in the 80's: Number of the Beast, Piece of Mind, (This is when CD's where invented) Powerslave, even Somewhere in Time. They were leading the pack hands down. I saw them in Long Beach for the Live After Death Tour, and pretty much every tour after that. I've got 20+ legit shirts and watched them get egged by Ozzy's kids, my daughters have their share of shirts too. Up the Irons. When Number of the Beast came out that @#$@ was scary. We loved it.

@carstenhedwig4423 11 месяцев назад

So in terms of Showmanship in the metal genre and being the biggest metal frontman of all times there are just a few that are on par with Bruce... so in no patricular order I'd say the top 5 are Bruce Dickinson, Rob Halford, Geoff Tate, Ronnie James Dio and Ozzy Osbourne...And that leads direct to some Suggestions... Another great song of Iron Maiden is Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner Judas Priest it is of course Painkiller and Victim of Change, Queensryche with Queen of the Reich and Take Hold of the Flame, Ozzy with Crazy Train und Warpigs and Dio with Heaven & Hell and Stargazer... and as honorable mention I'd throw in Michael Kiske (helloween) with Keeper of the 7 Keys and Helloween

While Bruce just became the lead vocalist of Maiden at the time he was previously known and loved on the metal scene as lead singer of the band Samson. This performance was in his native UK which was the home base of both Maiden and Samson so he was definitely well-known at the time. Former Maiden lead vocalist Paul Di'Anno was a very underrated vocalist as well. Di'Anno's bands Racer X and Paul Di'Anno's Killers were hit bands on the metal scene as well. As for the greatest performer on the metal scene it depends on the metal style you prefer, there are so many types of metal choices vary ... Goth Metal Peter Steel of Type O Negative, Classic Metal would be Bruce or Dio (hard to choose between them) and for Progressive Metal I'd have to say Andre Matos of Angra. Of the ones I mentioned only Bruce is still alive unfortunately. We've lost too many of the greats over the years. Oh, and I almost forgot ... for Japanese Metal Hyde (who has been performing solo the last few years was the lead vocalist of L'Arc-en-ciel and Vamps not to be confused with the American band The Vamps) has been Japan's greatest male metal performer for years IMHO ... he's still alive and still performing just like Bruce.

For insane composition, listen to ghost of perdition by Opeth. Fair warning, it's about a 10 minute song. But it captivates you with all the changes. This song has about 5 different genres in it.
