When most people think about metal its about that scream shit. Personally i think that shit is godawful. Iron Maiden, Sabbath, Metallica, Megadeth is real metal not that squeeling shit
@@RoyyGn Yeah I have only heard that stuff on occasions. I'm relitavely new to metal and I can tell you that from a person who thought metal was screaming I was dead wrong. It's a shame because I really feel a lot more people would like some kind of metal but the negative connotations of metal being screaming and satanic which are both false, put them off. Pretty much all the people I befriend I tell them to listen to metal. First edge them into it with some classic led zeppelin and black sabbath and then iron maiden, metallica, Megadeth and so on.
the sands of time for me are running looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow!
this performance was actually 2 days before the album was even released, so that audience is hearing this for the first time ever. Absolutely incredible
That makes a lot of sense since when this song intro gets played you hear a bunch of people cheering, but nobody is since this is there first time hearing it.
I really dig Clive’s drumming. Whether it be blink-182 or Motörhead, nothing beats the classic drummers - Scott and Phil! I like how it picks up speed at the end too, I’ve never noticed if they do it in other live albums and I’ve got some on vinyl
Reddit quality commenting... (That is supposed to be very embarrassing, although I guess this doesn't compute for almost anyone. It is of course worthless to debate whether "YT quality commenting", or any other, would have been better, no, but there is no winning in this, although some seem to think they could "win" by being just like something...)
It could be because the spiritual ties it has to it. It has a few scriptures in it. Scriptures are know to give life, light and encouragement in dark times
Clive Burr's birthday and passing. 8 March 1957 / 12 March 2013 My favorite Iron Maiden drummer member ever.. He just drove the Iron Maiden power level to the top. Rock In Peace Clive
This is the one song that you never skip on Spotify shuffle mode. How is it possible to make such a masterpiece. Non-metal listeners who are always complaining about Metal being violent, satanic, angry, loud and only screaming should just listen to this.
@@finismalorum9746da fuck are you talking about?? Yeah Bruce is old but he sounds better now than most rockers in there young prime.ever sounded...take for instance axl rose 1988 and axl rose 2018 ..now listen to Bruce Dickenson 1988 and Bruce 2018 and not much difference..I even believe there's a video of Bruce over the years ..Bruce can still belt them out I've seen him live many times and he always gives 110%
I know! Just discovered this version today. Life can never be the same again! Fucking loving Clive as well. Just an unbelievable version of this song. Nx
@@neiladams4839 this is the best version of this song,the tempo and Bruce's bombastic voice(that is much stronger comparing to the studio version) is making this live performance one of the best maiden had
There is a vocal coach guy who does a reaction to this exact version that caught my eye so I gave it a listen. And to hear another vocal expert break down all parts of this performance was really cool. If you enjoy this amazing version of the best Maiden song and can find that video give it a listen. Rock on my Maiden fans.
This would never be this tight again. Two words. CLIVE BURR!! The pocket is so huge and steady. It's just brilliant but never sounded the same after he left the band. That right hand during the first half of the song was his trademark! Just so perfect and so gloriously powerful. Bruce was untouchable here!!!
I completely agree, and yet, I have to say - while Clive keeps it as tight as a pull of a black hole, Nicko stretches it, bends it and swings it just like you're riding the black hole's event horizon itself. Both are incredibly awe-inspiring when it comes to playing this song. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_ToPD_KDU-I.html - this is absolutely otherworldly.
My dad is a drummer and possibly the biggest Iron Maiden fan I've ever seen (he's made one of their songs my second name), he was barely 11 years old when this performance happened, and today I am 21 years old and I continue to appreciate the band's works from waaay before I was even born, I never cease getting impressed by how timeless and legendary Iron Maiden is, they keep improving and getting better and better even nowadays, I know they'll be in history books for a really long time Iron Maiden was my dad's teenage favorite band, I've been listening to them and to my dad playing since I was born, and I hope someday I get to see them live and pass their legacy on to future generations ♡
During their peak, they were heads and shoulders above just about anyone. I'm surprised more people aren't into them. The only band I'd say had an edge to Maiden was late 70's era Judas Priest (1976-1979) ... one of the most creative streaks in not just heavy metal history, but music history 🤘🤘
"Dad why is my sisters name Rose? "thats because your mother loves roses" "oh, okay, thanks dad" "No problem Iron Maiden - Hallowed Be Thy Name (live)"
A lifelong Maidenhead (well, since 1986) couldn't agree more. My best friend is a Judas Priest fanatic, and I can't fault him for that, but I showed him this video once, and he just whispered at the end, "Well, I can see why you're a Maiden fan."
@@Dragonblaster1 I feel like their performance always has some magic. It clearly attracts you. Superb guitars, bass, drum, voice..Never disappointing you.
This is the song that got me into metal. I used to think it was too much screaming but I heard this song and it was more soft than most metal songs, so I liked this song and decided to check more of Iron Maiden. Thank you Iron Maiden for getting me into this awesome genre.
Still wondering how Iron Maiden is still touring strong to this day. The evidence is clear. Kick as bass, vocals, guitars, drums, writing, lyrics, production, mixing and engineering. Not to mention, Eddie! Can't wait to see them this October 2022!!!
Hallowed be thy naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeme
No auto tune AND Bruce motioning to the sound guy that he can’t hear himself in the monitor AND perfect vocal delivery. Astonishing, not too mention the incredible band and song.
That's what got me. Bruce sitting on the stairs like "up the monitor man I can't hear myself" while sustaining that "low" flawlessly. Absolutely amazing.
Hell rite hear havent stop try to meditate to bruce fucken evil but insane voice the man sing from his soul with so much passion it just pump me up every time
@@johnd7210 they didn’t get radioplay…that makes their achievements tenfold…how they managed to get the biggest and most diverse Fanbase is beyond me….
I'm 24 and have never really listened to Iron Maiden before, only 'Number of the Beast'. But goddamn, this is one of the best live performances I've ever seen on RU-vid. I'm a new fan, for sure.
whoever says that obviously ain't a true rocker man when I think rock I think of such icons such as Chris Cornell Chester Pennington rob Halford and of course the legendary iron maiden along with Bruce Dickinson man all these guys are legends
I have finally concluded that Mr doctor Dickinson is not human, he must be from a superior parallel universe who can write songs and sing them to such high quality and clarity. Truly truly amazing.
My fucking God dude... That part still makes me tear up and give me the illest chills possible. Bruce Dickinson is an absolute fucking legend, no one will ever be like him.
@Aldo S. Of course you can't forget about Ronnie James Dio! He created more of an impact on music than Bruce did. I still like Maiden a little more though. Bruce is my favorite. ❤
The greatest Metal song ever. Period! It has everything the initial buildup and intro, the crescendo leading to a massive twin lead explosion. The drums and tempo throughout, the bass gallop and the power vocals, and that amazing finish. If there ever was a perfect metal song. This is it.
best live performance ever....remember that I saw them first time in Greece in 13.9.1988. Thirteen years old then, snicked out from my home and went on foot (15 miles walking) paid sixteen hundred drachmas {about 5 Euros today} ( much expensive for a 13year old boy then (didn't spend my allowance for 4 months!!!) BEST experience ever ... Up the irons!!!!!
This video was published when I was 11 days old. And here I’m sitting today 15 years later, and getting ready to go on an Iron Maiden concert in a few hours !🤘🏻
🤘🏽 Wow - time passes by so fast. This song was already twenty something years old when you were born. My son is a year younger than you. Hope you had fun!
I would argue Bruce got better as he got older. The Talisman (En Vivo) and Powerslave (Flight 666) also Tears of the Dragon (Live with Tribuzy) showcase that perfectly.
He's got a better voice by the book these days. Purer tone, smoother pitch transitions, doesn't lose his breath as easily live. But the sheer power in this recording is something else.
Clive Burr. You are living forever because of this. What a marvelous drummer you was. You bring the soul of this song with your mates. Drumming and making your own melody into this masterpiece. R.I.P.
Agreed. I stopped listening to Maiden for a long time after he left. I thought Clive WAS Maiden. I could get over Paul leaving sort of as "Killers" was phenomenal but so was "Number of the Beast". Clive seemingly had absolute control of Maiden in a way Nicko never did.
6:13 I will never not get goosebumps during these final lines. Like the whole song exists only to build up to that final exclamation. And Bruce absolutely destroys it live. I love this version over the recording. From a storytelling and songwriting perspective, this song is unmatched. The instrumentation mirrors the lyrics and the psyche of the speaker as it grows more and more uneasy. If you read the lyrics, if you pay attention to the guitars and drums and bass building and building in their tempo and aggression to this point, you begin to realize how important these final lines are and how Bruce's delivery makes it so perfect. The speaker begins the song afraid of death, doubtful of God's existence, then he spirals into despair asking-if he exists-why God's allowed this to happen to him. By the end of the song he has an epiphany, a revelation, and as he's about to die, he reliquishes all his doubts and accepts his fate, finally wailing in guttural, primal submission: "HALLOWED BE THY NAME!" Goosebumps. Every time.
Wow, you know what? I love this song and have listened to countless times, but your comment opened a new dimension to the song and just adds another brilliant layer to it! Thanks dude, Thanks!
lmfao I shit you not, I get goosebumps during the entire time and the end is just the climax where I can finally die in peace knowing I've lead a good life
skyguitar Thanks! Haven't listened to it in a while in all honesty, but when I was younger it was hands-down my favorite album to listen to on loop haha. Sorry for the late reply, YT didn't alert me for some dumb reason. Cheers mate!
Bruce's tone on the long "name" is just killing me bro. I literally die a little inside because of its beauty. All my efforts in vain and as pale as the moon in the glow of his brilliance.
WE WANT INFORMATION,INFORMATION,INFORMATION....WHO ARE U.....THE NEW NUMBER 2. WHO IS NUMBER 1? U ARE NUMBER 6.....IAM NOT A NUMBER..... IAM A FREE MAN.......AAAAAAHHHHAHAHAHAHA
6:26 OH MY FUCKING GOD!! This never fails to shoot goosebumps down my spine man. The POWER, OH MAN. I can't get over how insanely good this performance is. One of the best I've seen on this website.
"Tears flow but why am i crying After all im not afraid of dying Dont i believe that there never is an end?" This is so fucking deep and well written i cant get enough
Unfortunately they didn't write it. They stole it from a band called Becket and got sued over it. Really hit me hard, didn't think they would do such a thing.
"When you know that your time is close at hand Maybe then you'll begin to understand Life down here is just a strange illusion" This is the real line from this amazing song that not enough people comprehend.
@@D-Day-fb3pw Can ANYONE dislike this performance? When someone is doubting my taste in music I just show them this song haha. Most of my friends who aren't even metalheads still think this song is awesome. When I met my girlfriend 3 years ago she didn't like metal at all, but when I blasted this song in the car a couple of times she grew to love it. Since then I've brought her to both Maiden and Metallica concerts and she loved every second of it lmao
well I love this song too, but "the best piece of music ever written" is a bit over the top? Aside from that being very subjective I think it is hard to argue that musically speaking there are better written songs than probably any Iron Maiden song or for that matter probably any contemporary music piece.
So this song randomly comes up in the algorithm while I was at the gym today. Ive never listened to metal I'm now a metal fan. Spent an extra hour lifting just listening to Maiden. UK bands are awesome in so many genres it's crazy.
yeah, hes had other great performances but this is hands down the best, both for Bruce and the rest of the band. The note hold on the word low and than the transition scream. Then the final hallowed be thy name and note hold are the best.
I like the 2001 RiR because Bruce interacts more with the ppl and the guitarists seems to having a good time. This version hands down tho, specially at the last part. Bruce absolutely nailed the screams
Everyone can have their opinions but clive kills on the drums in this version, ive never seen a version where nicko does it justice, and i love nicko's drumming btw
I wish every day that I could have been born early enough to see them live! Every singles thing about this performance is perfection. The guitar players all look so chill too even though they are absolutely ripping it up!!
"Hallowed Be Thy Name" I'm waiting in my cold cell, when the bell begins to chime Reflecting on my past life and it doesn't have much time 'Cause at 5 o'clock they take me to the Gallows Pole The sands of time for me are running low Running low When the priest comes to read me the last rites I take a look through the bars at the last sights Of a world that has gone very wrong for me Can it be that there's some sort of an error Hard to stop the surmounting terror Is it really the end, not some crazy dream? Somebody please tell me that I'm dreaming It's not easy to stop from screaming But words escape me when I try to speak Tears flow but why am I crying? After all I am not afraid of dying Don't I believe that there never is an end? As the guards march me out to the courtyard Somebody cries from a cell "God be with you" If there's a God then why has he let me go? As I walk all my life drifts before me And though the end is near I'm not sorry Catch my soul 'cause it's willing to fly away Mark my words believe my soul lives on Don't worry now that I have gone I've gone beyond to see the truth When you know that your time is close at hand Maybe then you'll begin to understand Life down here is just a strange illusion Yeah, yeah, yeah Hallowed be Thy name Yeah, yeah, yeah Hallowed be Thy name
So many people think Rob Halford is the greatest. Don't get me wrong he's good but Bruce Dickinson doesn't go falsetto to reach the high notes. This is an amazing vocalist with all the intangibles a singer wants. Very underrated.
I've listened to Hallowed be thy name countless times, yet every time again it gives me goosebumps. This is my favourite metal song ever made. Bruce's song is insane and I'm happy that I'm able to say i've seen them 7 times already as a 31 year old, yet also making me wish I was born a few decades earlier. If I see what they manage to do on a stage in this decade, I can only imagine what kind of brilliance it must have been in the 80's-90's
My all time favorite band. Metal doesn't get more hard charging than "Hallowed be thy Name" ----Also, the best concerts you'll ever attend where fans go absolutely nuts. God bless these guys for the joy they have shared over so many decades.
Ive been a Maiden fan for 24 years, own every album theyve ever produced, own nearly every concert film they've released and saw them live 4 times ( will be a 5th in November!) and have heard this song countless times: this absolutely THE best version ever performed and that's saying mountains
I'm 21, I saw then on oct 4. It was the best moment of my entire life. Every single time i heard them since, i get goosebumps and my eyes fill with tears. It was simply unbelievable , like a dream u know? Anyway, i know that i will remember that day for the rest of my life!
@@porfiriodev ...thanks for your post. October 4 is the day before my birthday. I am so happy that there are younger people out there that are moved by their music. I hope you get to see them a million more times! Love to you from ohio usa.❣
That last verse when he sings "Hallowed be thy name" just gives me goosebumps everytime. It sounds so supernatural like how is it possible for a human to do that
I know right! When I heard it for the first time, my jaw dropped and even now after many times of listening to it. I am still amazing by his true talent!!
@@RPMCanes: Not dead, it's just moved into genres that don't get much radio airplay. You have to go looking for it nowadays, it doesn't get delivered to you anymore.
This performance is perfection. There is simply no other way to say it. The song itself is a great story but the execution of it is just phenomenal. Iron Maiden is just so good. The bass, the drums, the guitars, and that voice, just blend perfectly.
