The instrumental part and chorus are great, but the beginning sucks and Bruce is trying too hard in that part.

@@VNeto94 You speak nonsense. Greetings from South America where live the true Maiden fans

@@metalero2311 explain how the dragging and repeating beggining is good? (I'm from Brazil, btw)

@@metalero2311 you like it because of the easy "wooooooos".

@@VNeto94 The original "The Red and the Black" is way better, man. You don't need to remove all the sense of grandeur and spaciousness it had. I like the original because it felt like this great rambling yarn you could get lost in - which wouldn't normally be a compliment, except the song's numerous guitar passages are wonderful, and flow into each other in a fun, playful sort of manner. That bass intro is really great - you can feel the weight and size of the song looming, huge as it is, when those ominous first few notes play. And the "woah oh oh" parts help the song. The version you want just would sound choppy and disjointed. Then again, I don't see a point in fan edits of artists' work in any way most of the time. I like seeing what the original intent was. I'm from Argentina.

And not screw up the timing on those sudden tempo switches.

When I was a young boy in the late 1970s the Earth was so beautiful and magical, just waiting to be explored. Then useless control - driven bible - toters tried to tell me it wasn't by trying to convince me the Earth is a very dark place and the only chance I had to get out was some guy that never existed to save me. I never listened to them. I saw how bible - toters were totally Miserable creatures full of Apathy via their needless and useless need of their Ego to ' Control' others.Years later in Ayahuasca ceremonies, Mother Aya showed me all the reasons why that is. "If it's not Shamanic, it's not Spiritually Organic." .. Period. Thank. You Mother Ayahuasca, infinite endless Gratitude !! Infinite Joy !! Nature is my church, and Rock N' Roll and Heavy Metal music (and a touch of psychedelic trance) is my religion ! And thank - you Iron Maiden ! : -

Simply listen to Iron Maidens songs titled ' Dance of Death' and ' Die with your Boots on' . As Eye died loads of times in Ayahuasca ceremonies over the last 12 years. As Death is infinite Liberation and re-integration of the infinite 'Oneness' of Light, as All is One, as there is no such thing as De - a th in reality. So who is that useless and Narcissist control - driven Christ to claim Only 'he' can give eternal life ? That's not infinite freedom and divine love (light), that's control in the illusion of time ( dar - kness). Hence why bible - toters are BY FAR the biggest mass mur - der - ers in history, as nothing is dar - ker than christianity. Hence why bible - toters are Narc - issist control - driven war worshiping monsters that hate all life and humanity (as all they do in their uselesa existence is whip out threats and warnings), and they hate the Earth/Nature (life), as they totally ha - te themselves. Truth !! ;- )

Red symbolizes emotions and Black is the ego mind of thoughts that are blind to everything (as all thoughts/beliefs are at surface level in either past/future in duality in the illusion of time, not unity/oneness - love of the infinite NOW of eternity of SOUL). The only way of light/truth/spirit is to not think and not give into fear (emotions) and go deep within to activate all that is Within you (White = Light) by taking Entheogen plants (Shamanism) that do just that. It's not a coincidence Iron Maiden's Book of Souls album began with the word "Shaman" in the opening track- "If Eternity Should Fail", right in the introduction of the song. As Shamanism is the Truth by activating all that is WITHIN you. Hence why every rel-igion on the p-lanet states the kingdom of Nature/Universe/Heavens is all Within you...By activating all seven chakras within you.

Musical inclined is one thing;an orgasim is another L.O.L 😮❤🎉

That's exactly what I was thinking listening to this. Most songs reach a climax. This song climaxes and keeps it there for several minutes. Like a never-ending orgasm.

Invicta tattoo Never could be...if anything comes close its another lifetime away

Brian Sternett true that,you couldn't be more right about that

Invicta tatoo ultimate truth !!!

Invicta tattoo you're god damn right!

They're the godfathers of Heavy Metal. They literally invented a music genre and completely innovated the metal and rock scene. NOTHING in any lifetime will come close, everything will always be compared to Iron Maiden

And sold out gigs

If I was making all that money for something that I love to do I’d be smiling also

Davey is God.

StalkerMonolith, they should have reatired after the utter shite of a crap album 'Dance of Death'. It's shameful on every level. Never released anything actualy good since 1999 for heaven's sake ! This song is good, but scratching around for the occasional worthy track is just lame for any band's standards, let alone Iron Maiden. I won't even mention the 90's, it's too painful, allthough not as bad as...well, with great pain I must say....Bad, but not as bad as their second half of their carreer. In fact, it's been a longer period. Oh my God, I hate to even thik about it. I am no stuck guy, give us back the 80's like...But yeah, bands stand for something. They kept the lyrics interestingish but really, the music went down the bog. I say FINALLY sack that clown Gers, and start writting some kinky, streetwise, progressive stuff from the heart. I mean clearly they CAN'T go wrong commercialy...What's the worst thing that can happen? Check Saxon as an example. And they aren't half as good as Iron Maiden on their best day.

@@DidacticEditions that's your opinion, I think many will disagree... I think some of their best albums are in the second bruce era, for me the best is "A Matter of Life and Death". Also, I think their latest albums are much more complex then their 80's stuff, and I apreciate that

@@noam4832 We re all brothers in metal and in the Iron Maiden family above all. But with much respect, many can disagree all they want. That doesn't change the definition of music, the complexity and quality of it. Sure there are tastes, but long songs with sudden random changes will match complexity, definetely not in quality, the masterpieces of the 80's. So, I love Brave new world. It's a brilliant album, different to that era, but good. The rest after that...Sorry they cannot compare. Plus, back in the first decade, you had masterpiece after masterpiece album in quick succession, with every single song being perfect...But yeah

@@DidacticEditions Dance of Death wasn't their best, but it wasn't that bad and Book of Souls is their #2 best album ever. I swear guys like you think they should have packed it in after Number of the Beast so they could never tarnish them with any other music they could ever possibly make.

@@Shockeye00 how dumb are you????? They should never pack it up, but 7th son of a 7th son is their last IRON MAIDEN album. Shit hot, no skippable material etc. Guys like my nothing. Get real

An MBE or OBE at the very least for them all would be well deserved , sportsmen/ women get them for less .

Rumor has it that they tried to knight Bruce twice, but he swiftly dispatched them with fencing skills, thinking he was under attack. There is a song called "Flash of the Blade" detailing the incident on the album Powerslave.

+Pedro Reinaldo The Hound: Fuck the queen. Fuck the white walkers. Up the Irons!

I only worship Iron Maiden. The British sovereignty can go & get f*cked

The Guitologist it’s because they don’t care much for royalty. Never have and never will. They actually earned their money but have remained common folk.

Two words: *EPIC MASTERPIECE*

It has strong moments but also weak boring moments in my opinion.. The instrumental parts and the gallop towards the end though is absolutely sublime.

Maiden is a "Shamanic band" of infinite Truths and love and light. That nobody else can see and understand. Only UNLESS you have Be-come " it " and totally transformed your-Self to infinite Truths of Soul and Spirit in higher dimensions of consciousness can you possibly ever totally understand the beauty of Iron Maiden. Because, "If it's not Shamanic, it's not Organic. " Not many people have the ability to understand Iron Maiden, as most people live in the lies of duality of good and evil of the mind and are just walking "reactions", and lack the consciousness. But, Iron Maiden = Easily the greatest Heavy Metal band in music history. No band writes such depth in their lyrics of the overall human condition with such intelligence & wisdom, bringing light, combined with such beautiful depth, grace, and power in their music. Absolute masters of their craft and creativity. They are untouchable. All you have to do is read Bruce's published books to see these guys have tons of direct Spiritual experiences. These guys know truth and fully know and see right through the lies of society's game, and they see right through all the lies of Religion (and when I say religion I am talking about the lies churches teach, not true Spirituality, as spirituality and religion are nothing alike). Maiden is so much better than Metallica in so many ways. Much better musicians, better singer, far better songwriting. Much more melodic. More "pure" energy. Have almost twice the albums of Metallica, far more longevity and have so many more great songs, and Maiden never wrote a bad album ( you could say they had a sub-par album in the 90's, but remember that was with half the band missing doing their solo stuff). Metallica never really had much to say, while Maiden has so much to say that allow you to really question so many things. Maiden never sold out by producing garbage albums like Metallica's St Anger to appease popularity and the current music "trends" of society, that always pass away, are totally meaningless, and are fake anyways., And you definitely won't see Iron Maiden prostituting themselves in silly reality TV shows like Metallica and KISS have done for years. It's just not Maiden's style. They have absolutely no interest in being "celebrities", or any gossip/drama. Drawing attention away from them because as they said, the music is about much more than them. Which is why they have a mascot "eddie" on their album covers, so people focus on eddie and not the "images" of the band members. Having Eddie (which is just a representation of the blind ego-based mind) leaves them alone to be themselves and they don't have to have any fake image of being "rock stars". As Bruce once said, We can continue making music when we're old and ugly and just slap Eddie on the album cover and nobody will mind. And it is brilliant. Inner light doesn't need the spotlight. Maiden always stayed true and original. Always timeless. Eternal. Nobody sounds like them and nobody ever will. Nobody will again write such important and complete concept albums with such atmosphere like Somewhere in Time and Seventh son, with that super high-level musicianship and genius bass and guitar work (and no band introduced synthesizers into their music with such seamless genius as Maiden did on those 2 albums),, as the concepts of those albums are vital to every human being and Spirit- realizing the illusion of time, and seventh's son concept of realizing the illusion of duality,. The beauty and truths of 1984's " Powerslave" album with it's beautiful egyptian theme, and the striking messages that are right in the title track itself (Powerslave). How humans are slaves to death (in other words, slaves to the illusions of Time), therefore slaves to needing power or any control or judgment, the cause of all our deep inner separations, our greed and selfishness and total blindness, because of the Ego false-self. All of our problems come from our absolute stupidity of fear of death, as humans are totally separated from Truths of Spirit and Soul. The more one fears death, the more one is fearful of life and fearful of fully receiving and giving love. Truth is always paradoxical, as at the speed of light there is no time, it's the Eternal Now of presence. In other words no duality of Good and evil, but only "unity" consciousness of light of the infinite Oneness of the Universe, as you are the Universe ( it's not a coincidence that Maiden's new album has a song titled "Speed of Light"). And it's not a coincidence that "Somewhere in Time" was their next album after they produced one of the greatest heavy metal albums of all-time - Powerslave. And who else in heavy metal at the time had the courage to write long 14-minute masterpieces like Iron Maiden's "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" to close out an album?? The answer is nobody else, only Maiden, because it was unheard of before that. And their new album, they just wrote an 18-minute masterpiece to close that album with most of the band over 60. Again, IN-tegrity. Nobody else had a 7-album run like Maiden's first 7 albums. Some bands may put out a couple nice albums in their prime and whisper away into the night, but Maiden put together 7 fantastic albums in a row. And the fact they put out so much great material of those 7 monumental albums in just an 8 year span is unfathomable. Magical. They don't write about meaningless sleaze as other bands do, with the exception of the song "22 Acacia Avenue" in their early days (although the end of that song does have a positive message), and the band said they regretted it, and why they very rarely play it live, even though it is a very good song and fans always ask them to play it live. Speaking of Live, their live albums are excellent. You simply cannot find bands with live albums that can approach Maidens live recordings, and in ways better than the studio albums, and that speaks volumes. And at 60 years of age and 40 years into their careers, they are still pumping out great new material. Unlike Metallica where their last 4 albums they were just looking for something to click with no purpose or direction, just poking around aimlessly, it's blatantly obvious. Just 15 years into Metallica's career they were long done producing shameful music with albums like Reload and St Anger. While Maiden, always progressing itself, yet staying true to their form and originality at the same time, 20+ years into their careers came out with a very good album 'Brave New world' . The band quietly laughing at anyone who thought they were done, with a nice tip of the hat to the legendary psychedelic medicine visionary Alduous Huxley. Many songs on that album like "Dream of Mirrors", and "Ghost of the Navigator" that metallica can't touch. If you want to see what a fraud Metallica has always been, a simple search for Grunge "Metallica's shadiest secrets" will do the trick. And years later, Iron Maiden 25 to 35 years into their careers wrote and produced so many great songs like "The Nomad", " Dance of Death", "The Red and the Black, "The Talisman", "If Eternity should fail", The Man who would be King", "Paschendale", "Brighter than a Thousands Suns", "The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg", "Lord of Light, Isle of Avalon", "The Legacy", "The Longest Day", "Montsegur", "Starblind"", "Out of the Shadows", "The Book of Souls", "Journeyman (and Journeyman being my personal Ayahuasca journey tribute song :-)" .... "Rainmaker", "Coming Home", "For the Greater Good of God", just to name a few songs that metallica hasn't come close to achieving in their mid to later years. Cliff Burton was the heart of Metallica and by far their best and most talented musician. Burton was to Metallica what Steve Harris is to Iron Maiden. Steve Harris is widely considered to be the best heavy metal bassist of all-time, and if Burton were still alive, he'd be right there with Harris, that's how good Burton was. Nobody in Metallica comes close to Burton's immense talent he had as a musician. When Burton passed away in 1986 Metallica went downhill as they lost their true backbone and juice. And they replaced him with mere hired guns to control, just a hired body to fill in, not to have as a real contributor. But let's face it, a major part of Metallica's popularity is just because of the label that they are an 'american band'. Metallica is always covering Maiden songs in their concerts, and they've played multiple Maiden songs in their concerts as Metallica was influenced by Iron Maiden (All you have to hear is Lars Ulrich grovel at Iron Maiden like a lost puppy during Maidens 2008 tour) . But you don't see Maiden covering Metallica songs. Because Maiden IS Maiden. Even if you split the band members into doing solo work, James Hetfield couldn't come close to writing such a beautiful solo album for himself as Bruce did with "The Chemical Wedding", and what a masterpiece album that is. Why don't more people know about Bruce's solo work? who knows, but people are missing out. One thing is for sure, there is so much more love and MYSTERY in Iron Maiden's music. And so much more meaning. And they always truly progressed. Not many people understand the deep Spiritual meanings in Iron Maiden's music, or understand the full concepts of their albums because they're quite deep, mysterious, wonderous, and absolutely magnificent. But once you grow Spiritually to higher levels of Consciousness, Maiden can bring you to weeping tears with their beauty and Truths in their music. Metallica doesn't have that depth, beauty, or power. Real Power is so much more than just playing fast and heavy. Iron Maiden is so much more than just a great heavy metal band, Maiden is much more than the music. As when it comes to the greatest in anything, there is always Much More than meets the eyes (and ears). Eye love you Iron Maiden!!. Gratitude !! Shanti OM . Namaste !

Maiden's "Piece of Mind" album cover from 1983 tells you everything. Eddie is nothing more than a metaphorical representation of the Ego mind, as who the person thinks they are and all their beliefs are total PRISONS. The mind knows nothing. As everything in society and religion is a lie, as it's all illuminati-government manufactured. Ask yourself, since when did the government buy the Earth for you to pay them so they can tell you how to live here ? Exactly, they never bought the earth, it's all a total sham. Satan (or devil) is nothing more than fancy word-play for he ego thinking mind, as all beliefs and all thoughts are outwardly ( not inwardly), therefore all thoughts and all beliefs are all lies and illusions. Don't forget to read the tombstone on Maiden's LIVE AFTER DEATH album cover from 1985 , death is total illusion. People miss that just as people miss the 3rd eye Pineal Gland that is depicted in detail just below the moonlight on Maidens "Somewhere in Time" album cover. Look at the top of the building just to the right under the moonlight. The pineal gland 3rd eye within you that you must activate - Spiritual Vision. Just as Eddie is stricken activating the 3rd eye Pineal gland on Live After Death's album cover. The pineal gland 3rd eye and our chakra system is all over the Powerslave album insert as well. Activating all 7 chakras within you ( via Entheogen plants) is the only way to Spiritual Ascension, as all religions since the first religion the Rig Veda of India come from Alchemy (Entheogens) , in other words, Shamanism. Hence why Bruce Dickinson speaks of that through his solo albums, for example his song " The Alchemist" ( which eye have uploaded on my YT channel). Nature is my church, and Rock N' Roll and Heavy Metal music is my religion :-)

@@robertdemeter5793 best song i ever saw live it shits all over classics like Child in time stairway to heaven black Sabbath

exactly.... i love so much this part

Toda la canción suena en armonía... suben y bajan las vibraciones con subliminal perfección...

I could be wrong but I think it is the only time all three guitarists have played the lead at the same time with no rhythm guitarist. It is just the three leads and Steve on the bass.

Yes Sir, i 'm in love with the second one (part)

Could have been another masterpiece of an instrumental song after so many years! Still, because I know what's coming, I go through the first part of the song just to get to the second part of the song :) This cut reminds me a bit of the song "Virus".

Il en existe pas deux! Ce live est absolument phénoménal!!!!! Maiden est vraiment le meilleur groupe au monde

And let's not forget the age of these elders.Up the Irons!!

No doubt

Agree👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

avec METALLICA bien sur …@@bayadjerroud4693

it was around the 80s. Started sucking since Janick or mid ninetees.

... things people did not say in medieval ages

Markus #283 Lmfao true though!

There is no luck... Only God... Still, it is a purifying music... We were created for this...

Yeah, pretty much. (I’d say the one in ‘The Prisoner’ would be second)

The Duellists

I'd love to hear TRATB without synths! It would be incredible! There needs to be one of those apps or web pages that remove vocals, or isolate vocals, or whatever. Can you imagine if you could remove synths from a song??? It would be incredible!

Amen!

Probobaly the same bass still after all these years

He's a fuckin god, man!! lol

Haunted Machine to be honest, I think they ALL are heroes of real life.......living legends..

susanne williamsson Yes, i totally agree! I love all that guys

entiendo este sr bruce es impresionante

es un mounstruo del rock como toda la banda de iron maiden

Same comment but my favorite part starts at 9m00s... I dont know another band that can reinvent itself after so many years and come out with such epic songs ! (maybe Rush can qualify as this with Clockwork Angels but that's another story...;-) )

Agreed, that part is so fucking epic :D And the energy of the band is pure magic!

Andrei Tise because they are simply the best musicians out there, their musical skills are overwhelming !!

best part for sure

James Thwaite exactly, I´ve always said their music since that particular album have become more ravishing, captivating, complexed and sublime, and I honestly think Janick is mostly responsible for that, all theese soft, gentle intros and outros, mainly on accoustic guitar, the long sprawling progressive tracks. I honestly think we can thank Janick for most of it, I love and admire the guy to bits.....

But let's face it, a major part of Metallica's popularity is just because of the label that they are an 'american band'. Metallica is always covering Maiden songs in their concerts, and they've played multiple Maiden songs in their concerts as Metallica was influenced by Iron Maiden (All you have to hear is Lars Ulrich grovel at Iron Maiden like a lost puppy during Maidens 2008 tour) . But you don't see Maiden covering Metallica songs. Because Maiden IS Maiden. Even if you split the band members into doing solo work, James Hetfield couldn't come close to writing such a beautiful solo album for himself as Bruce did with "The Chemical Wedding", and what a masterpiece album that is. Why don't more people know about Bruce's solo work? who knows, but people are missing out. One thing is for sure, there is so much more love and MYSTERY in Iron Maiden's music. And so much more meaning. And they always truly progressed. Not many people understand the deep Spiritual meanings in Iron Maiden's music, or understand the full concepts of their albums because they're quite deep, mysterious, wonderous, and absolutely magnificent. But once you grow Spiritually to higher levels of Consciousness, Maiden can bring you to weeping tears with their beauty and Truths in their music. Metallica doesn't have that depth, beauty, or power. Real Power is so much more than just playing fast and heavy. Iron Maiden is so much more than just a great heavy metal band, Maiden is much more than the music. As when it comes to the greatest in anything, there is always Much More than meets the eyes (and ears). Eye love you Iron Maiden!!. Gratitude !! Shanti OM . Namaste!

Robert Demeter and I though I was long winded ! Well said my brother, well said.. very true

Flat Earth, All confusion and sadness and pain and suffering comes from the Ego-thinking mind. All thoughts are lies. Hence why satan is nothing more than fancy word-play for the ego mind. Hence Iron Maiden's " Piece of Mind" album cover from 1983. As "you" don't exist. The "I" is total illusion, and the divine light of Heavy Metal music always told you that, and very explicitly. Do yourself a big favor and read all the replies from my wife Simione and eye , our replies to Chris Pinto at the youtube video titled " Tool Fear Innoculum Special Edition Opening and Exploration" .. And read all our posts, there are about 70 replies there, and click all the links to our posts. And you will see in striking detail how all government and religion is a total lie, and how Heavy Metal music always told you that from the beginning. As Rock N' Roll and Heavy Metal music is Gods music. Always has been and always will be ;')

Again, iron Maiden's "Piece of Mind" album cover from 1983 tells you everything. Eddie is nothing more than a metaphorical representation of the Ego mind, as who the person thinks they are and all their beliefs are total PRISONS. The mind knows nothing. As everything in society and religion is a lie, as it's all illuminati-government manufactured. Ask yourself, since when did the government buy the Earth for you to pay them so they can tell you how to live here ? Exactly, they never bought the earth, it's all a total sham. Satan (or devil) is nothing more than fancy word-play for thoughts of the ego thinking mind, as all beliefs and all thoughts are outwardly ( not inwardly), therefore all thoughts and all beliefs are all lies and illusions when it comes to infinite spiritual truths. Don't forget to read the tombstone on Maiden's LIVE AFTER DEATH album cover from 1985 , death is total illusion. People miss that just as people miss the 3rd eye Pineal Gland that is depicted in detail just below the moonlight on Maidens "Somewhere in Time" album cover. Look at the top of the building just to the right under the moonlight. The pineal gland 3rd eye within you that you must activate - Spiritual Vision. Just as Eddie is stricken activating the 3rd eye Pineal gland on Live After Death's album cover. The pineal gland 3rd eye and our chakra system is all over the Powerslave album (1984) insert as well. Simply listen to Iron Maiden's song titled "Revelations", the song is about activating the 7 chakras, the venom up the spine by facing your Dark - Ness, as all spiritual teachings are in the dark. Activating all 7 chakras within you along the Spine (via Entheogen plants) is the only way to Spiritual Ascension, as all religions since the first religion the Rig Veda of India come from Alchemy (Entheogens) , in other words, Shamanism. Hence why Bruce Dickinson speaks of that through his solo albums, for example his song " The Alchemist" ( which eye have uploaded on my YT channel). Gods music. Period.

The greatest Rock N' Roll bands ALWAYS spoke of Entheogen plants, such as Black Sabbath's song "Behind the Wall of Sleep." So then explain WTF are people believing ?! As all religions reference Entheogen plants since the first religion the Rig Veda of India, there are hundreds of books written that prove it. This is something churches will never tell you as government and modern religion is nothing more than a fake tool to control the masses. All religions reference the 7-chakras that you must activate WITHIN you, which is the ONLY way to Spiritual Ascension, which is exactly what entheogen plants activate within us. Hence why every religion on the planet states - " The kingdom of Heaven and God is WITHIN You". As all religions come from Shamanism at their roots. But religions have been completely manipulated since, by man's stupid need for "control". But you are terrified of going deep within millions of times deeper than your Ego-mind wants to go via Entheogen plants, because there is endless darkness and hells you have to face.. That only you created. Words like satan are nothing more than fancy word-play for thoughts and beliefs, in other words your ego thinking Mind. Enemies do not exist in reality, you are always and forever your own worst enemy, lifetime through lifetime through many lifetimes. You will reincarnate in your next life to exactly that which yoi hate the most, as that is how the infinite intelligence of the Universe and Spirit/Nature teaches. But of course, you absolutely hate human spiritual ascension, as it's a reflection of your hatred for humanity. As you hate yourself. Atheists hate direct spiritual experiences, just like a christian hates direct spiritual experiences . Through the devil which is nothing more than your EGO thinking blind mind. The fact that fake society tells you that christians and atheists are opposites is laughable. Hilarious !! As they are entirely the same. Hence why both hate deep questions, just as government hates deep questions. As you are just like the government in reality and created by government as everything you believe and think, they told you to believe and think.

1 million % agree with you! Quite possibly THE best band in not just rock music history but in the whole of history as humankind knows? UP THE IRONS!!!

Stuart Jeffries definitely, theese incredible guys have simply a genre of their own....

@@susannewilliamsson8339 I think 'a genre of their own' as you've just described it is the best way to describe Maiden that I've ever heard, each member a musical legend that's for sure! They're my favourite band and the other 2 bands in my top 3 are Motorhead and AC/DC......with a top 3 like that of my favourite bands theirs never a dull moment in my house and my hifi speakers never get much rest! Lol

@@lordyoda8555 yes most of their songs are amazing but they all seem to belong to their own genre, every incredible band does

Damn

Fantastic post that celebrates the brilliance of all Maiden members and the circumstances that gave them to us. Cheers!

Whats soccer

oh yeah the only football game in the world where you cant tackle anyone

And our mothers could have swallowed us

Good tight bands always sound better live

their phenomenal stage presence and magical charisma doesn´t come through in studio recordings, since I´ve finally seen them live I promise, when the guys entering the stage: a tremendous force of nature suddenly is let loose....to see them live is just....I don´t have words to descibe it, because there are no words great enough....

Yep

Siempre es mejor en vivo...le agregan energía y frecuencia q mejoran la canción 100%....

Maiden have made some really catchy metal over the years. Dickenson rulez, too.

Agreed, he has so much emotion in his solos.

Adrian is so fucking beautiful. No words are needed. Period

My first time getting my ass kicked by Adrian was the Song "Stranger in a Strange Land" back in 1986 as a teen. Adrian wrote that song and all guitar parts. Eye listened to Maiden since 1983's Piece of Mind album. But that solo and guitar work from "Stranger" ripped me apart to pieces and everything Iron Maiden opened up for me. Loads of spiritual truths on that album and all through their fantastic and timeless discography of albums if you simply allow yourself to stop listening ( the lies of effort) and learn how to Hear ( to let go of your ego mind) :-)

Especially during their '80's heyday.

PowerSlave/Caught Somewhere in Time/Heaven can Wait/Wasted Years/Hallowed be thy Name still blows my mind today!

Honk123456789 THAT´s the magic of Maiden....

Mozart + Electric Guitar = Iron Maiden

@@theblueteam6529 I´d say Beethoven nr.9 Symphony of joy...

As always, and they transmit energy to everyone else also ;)

It looks like that bcs they are having fun

the words u used to describe them are really very accurate

Thank you Robert for speeking the Fvcking truth! :-) Wish you all the best.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Thank you for putting into words what I've always felt about these guys. We're lucky to have them at this era.🤘🇧🇷

I couldn't agree more with you. And I also always come back here. This song is epic. Kinda underrated also.🤘🇧🇷

Literally just forwarded this song to one of my friends and told him to play it at 9:25! Funny to see this comment now Haha This solo gives me all kinds of feelings. MASTERPIECE 🔥

So much Clansman-vibe in this part

Love these big bombastic epics of theirs. That instrumental is epic.

Same here mate

I feel the same, fkn nr 1 😉

the same to me!!!!

Adrian is incredible.

Feel sorry for Dave Murray rarely gets the credit he deserves but yes Adrian is a machine and his solos are always brilliant.

@@alex.t76 ... not from this world! I've been a Maiden fan since I was a kid and his solos only get better! I've heard them millions of times and it's still breathtaking.

welcome home dear, UP THE IRONS

Welcome. Back. Enjoy the smell of iron once again

Yeah book of souls is there best album for me hell most of 2015 is peoples best work aside from film but video games and music at there best I bought this album once I finished Undertale because I thought it was a prequel of it lol yes I was that dumb not checking the dates

And I truly mostly agree with you, Maiden fans are far and wide. But the lengths that Phish fans go is truly astounding to me. But, admittedly they are not as big of a fan base, that’s for sure.

I'd love to dispute that but I can't

Rime of the ancient marier

I don't know, there releases are always dividing fans.

metallica is mofe universal band

you can´t ever compare Maiden to Metallica.......they are extremly succesful yes, but they are a thrash metal band, Maiden on the other hand are capable to produce any metal...heavy, classic, symphonic and progressive, Maiden have evolved remarkably well while Metallica seems to be stuck.......maybe somewhere in time ??

@@susannewilliamsson8339 Metallica is stuck? See all Metallica’s work. They made covers of famous bands (Garage Album. 1998). They recorded St.anger's album in alternative style. And now they play (Kirk & Rob) songs from famous bands in countries where they come. They also have two concerts with a symphony orchestra. The black album was totally unique. They even recorded a Maiden cover - Remember Tomorrow. Can you say that about Maiden? They just play heavy metal.

@@terminator6730 Don´t get me wrong, I love so many of their songs and I absolutely love the black album, I´ve also seen the film with the symphoniy orchestra which was sublime.............but, if you listen to their latest albums I think you´ll understand my point of view........

@@terminator6730 St. Anger has a lot of weak songs, the same for Harwired.....cd 2 has one good song, the last one. Death magnetic was a lot better, but the production was bad. Metallica 3 albums in the last 20 years, Maiden 5. Why should Maiden play covers? They have plenty of good songs on their own. The only thing Metallica does better in my opinion is the variety in songs they play live. Maiden is playing the same setlist all tour long.

From iron maiden to senjutsu?

I agree with you. Especially the live version

⁷⁹9⁹⁹⁹⁰

It is amazing how Iron Maiden can provide so consistent high quality. Even in 2020's they are as good as ever.

Gers is always the permanent guest in maiden for hard core fan's..me included! Cheer's.

what can I say, Janick has been my favourite from the start, and he always will be ........

He brings an energy and enthusiasm to all shows. Love him

@@lindameow4348 so do I, believe me...

You rock...@@susannewilliamsson8339

Because they are GODS no other explanation

@@epnlvr9790 literally there is no other explanation, it is not humanly possible

Pure talent who love what they do

The new album is incredible!

Bruce just his that last "I NEED SOMEBODY TO SAVE ME!!" A lot harder

Christhian Carvajal concordo totalmente...mestres magnifico, supremo, Maiden por siempre y para siempre ...

Es la pasion, la pasion por una vida maravillosa haciendo lo que les gusta... eso los energiza... todos deberiamos aspirar a vivir asi, pero para lo que no podemos... tenemos a Iron maiden para elevarnos cuando estamos caidos

Yo creo que si ya llevas mucho tiempo haciendo esto, tu cuerpo se acostumbra.

Cuando en la vida hacemos lo q realmente queremos toda nuestra energía se transforma en vida y no la gastamos en otras cosas q nos envejecen más rápidamente....

Tengo 60 años y escucho a Iron desde hace 45 años y hasta el día de hoy me pone la piel de gallina....

Franck9476 no it´s not incredible in any way, you´r talking about the masters of music, any genre, any era, any time...

Like a fine wine

INDEED!!!! \o/

Only dave can do such magic tricks

Dave is the only member who appears on every album together with founder Steve. So Maiden has his strong influence .

I just noticed that. Not that it really matters but interesting. UP THE IRONS !!

Hahaha Apparently these are edited from a mishmash of different live performances of the same song.

True brother

That's exacly what I was thinking about.

Red symbolizes emotions and Black is the ego mind of thoughts that are blind to everything (as all thoughts are at surface level in either past/future in duality in the illusion of time, not unity/oneness - love). The only way of light/truth/spirit is to not think and not give into fear (emotions) and go deep within to activate all that is Within you (White = Light). .

Lucky "us" ... / 52 & stilll rockin'

One of my favorites as well

👍👍👍

i agree, so many changes within the song, its pretty F'n Epic. Was so good live!!!

agree it's def one of their best later era classics. absolutely fantastic.

@@ZeZwede 👍

The first seal of Revelation...

Best description of Maiden ever

YES

WickedKnightAlbel ultimate truth !!

And steve the bass god

Martijn de Groot he´s the bass God that´s true, but NOTHING of this had never been possible without him....he´s also the mind and soul of metal music, aswell as the founder of our mighty Iron Maiden........

INDIA MONI LA CHUPA VERGA SUPERDOTADA the dream team, and the EPITOME of metal, NO doubt what so ever !!

THE BASS PLAYER

Geddy Lee is the greatest rock bassist but Mark King is even better.

Same here. I am glad i am not alone. These long and epic songs are core of their work for me. Up the Irons from Czech Republic!

D00mnoodle / Sergeant Purge I second that, I love theese sprawling, brooding progressive songs, theese slow, soft intros and outros, mainly on accoustic guitar.....theese guys musical skills are truly overwhelming, their music and lyrics grabs your heart and souls in a heartbeat and never let it go .....

Rime is actually longer by exactly one second. Lol

@@CaptainDeadeye_enderzombie_688 actually is 5 seconds longer🙄

Iron Maiden is a "Shamanic band" of infinite Truths and love and light. That nobody else can see and understand. Only UNLESS you have Be-come " it " and totally transformed your-Self to infinite Truths of Soul and Spirit in higher dimensions of consciousness can you possibly ever totally understand the beauty of Iron Maiden. Because, "If it's not Shamanic, it's not Organic. " Not many people have the ability to understand Iron Maiden, as most people live in the lies of duality of good and evil of the mind and are just walking "reactions", and lack the consciousness. But, Iron Maiden = Easily the greatest Heavy Metal band in music history. No band writes such depth in their lyrics of the overall human condition with such intelligence & wisdom, bringing light, combined with such beautiful depth, grace, and power in their music. Absolute masters of their craft and creativity. They are untouchable. All you have to do is read Bruce's published books to see these guys have tons of direct Spiritual experiences. These guys know truth and fully know and see right through the lies of society's game, and they see right through all the lies of Religion (and when I say religion I am talking about the lies churches teach, not true Spirituality, as spirituality and religion are nothing alike). Maiden is so much better than Metallica in so many ways. Much better musicians, better singer, far better songwriting. Much more melodic. More "pure" energy. Have almost twice the albums of Metallica, far more longevity and have so many more great songs, and Maiden never wrote a bad album ( you could say they had a sub-par album in the 90's, but remember that was with half the band missing doing their solo stuff). Metallica never really had much to say, while Maiden has so much to say that allow you to really question so many things. Maiden never sold out by producing garbage albums like Metallica's St Anger to appease popularity and the current music "trends" of society, that always pass away, are totally meaningless, and are fake anyways., And you definitely won't see Iron Maiden prostituting themselves in silly reality TV shows like Metallica and KISS have done for years. It's just not Maiden's style. They have absolutely no interest in being "celebrities", or any gossip/drama. Drawing attention away from them because as they said, the music is about much more than them. Which is why they have a mascot "eddie" on their album covers, so people focus on eddie and not the "images" of the band members. Having Eddie (which is just a representation of the blind ego-based mind) leaves them alone to be themselves and they don't have to have any fake image of being "rock stars". As Bruce once said, We can continue making music when we're old and ugly and just slap Eddie on the album cover and nobody will mind. And it is brilliant. Inner light doesn't need the spotlight. Maiden always stayed true and original. Always timeless. Eternal. Nobody sounds like them and nobody ever will. Nobody will again write such important and complete concept albums with such atmosphere like Somewhere in Time and Seventh son, with that super high-level musicianship and genius bass and guitar work (and no band introduced synthesizers into their music with such seamless genius as Maiden did on those 2 albums),, as the concepts of those albums are vital to every human being and Spirit- realizing the illusion of time, and seventh's son concept of realizing the illusion of duality,. The beauty and truths of 1984's " Powerslave" album with it's beautiful egyptian theme, and the striking messages that are right in the title track itself (Powerslave). How humans are slaves to death (in other words, slaves to the illusions of Time), therefore slaves to needing power or any control or judgment, the cause of all our deep inner separations, our greed and selfishness and total blindness, because of the Ego false-self. All of our problems come from our absolute stupidity of fear of death, as humans are totally separated from Truths of Spirit and Soul. The more one fears death, the more one is fearful of life and fearful of fully receiving and giving love. Truth is always paradoxical, as at the speed of light there is no time, it's the Eternal Now of presence. In other words no duality of Good and evil, but only "unity" consciousness of light of the infinite Oneness of the Universe, as you are the Universe ( it's not a coincidence that Maiden's new album has a song titled "Speed of Light"). And it's not a coincidence that "Somewhere in Time" was their next album after they produced one of the greatest heavy metal albums of all-time - Powerslave. And who else in heavy metal at the time had the courage to write long 14-minute masterpieces like Iron Maiden's "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" to close out an album?? The answer is nobody else, only Maiden, because it was unheard of before that. And their new album, they just wrote an 18-minute masterpiece to close that album with most of the band over 60. Again, IN-tegrity. Nobody else had a 7-album run like Maiden's first 7 albums. Some bands may put out a couple nice albums in their prime and whisper away into the night, but Maiden put together 7 fantastic albums in a row. And the fact they put out so much great material of those 7 monumental albums in just an 8 year span is unfathomable. Magical. They don't write about meaningless sleaze as other bands do, with the exception of the song "22 Acacia Avenue" in their early days (although the end of that song does have a positive message), and the band said they regretted it, and why they very rarely play it live, even though it is a very good song and fans always ask them to play it live. Speaking of Live, their live albums are excellent. You simply cannot find bands with live albums that can approach Maidens live recordings, and in ways better than the studio albums, and that speaks volumes. And at 60 years of age and 40 years into their careers, they are still pumping out great new material. Unlike Metallica where their last 4 albums they were just looking for something to click with no purpose or direction, just poking around aimlessly, it's blatantly obvious. Just 15 years into Metallica's career they were long done producing shameful music with albums like Reload and St Anger. While Maiden, always progressing itself, yet staying true to their form and originality at the same time, 20+ years into their careers came out with a very good album 'Brave New world' . The band quietly laughing at anyone who thought they were done, with a nice tip of the hat to the legendary psychedelic medicine visionary Alduous Huxley. Many songs on that album like "Dream of Mirrors", and "Ghost of the Navigator" that metallica can't touch. If you want to see what a fraud Metallica has always been, a simple search for Grunge "Metallica's shadiest secrets" will do the trick. And years later, Iron Maiden 25 to 35 years into their careers wrote and produced so many great songs like "The Nomad", " Dance of Death", "The Red and the Black, "The Talisman", "If Eternity should fail", The Man who would be King", "Paschendale", "Brighter than a Thousands Suns", "The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg", "Lord of Light, Isle of Avalon", "The Legacy", "The Longest Day", "Montsegur", "Starblind"", "Out of the Shadows", "The Book of Souls", "Journeyman (and Journeyman being my personal Ayahuasca journey tribute song :-)" .... "Rainmaker", "Coming Home", "For the Greater Good of God", just to name a few songs that metallica hasn't come close to achieving in their mid to later years. Cliff Burton was the heart of Metallica and by far their best and most talented musician. Burton was to Metallica what Steve Harris is to Iron Maiden. Steve Harris is widely considered to be the best heavy metal bassist of all-time, and if Burton were still alive, he'd be right there with Harris, that's how good Burton was. Nobody in Metallica comes close to Burton's immense talent he had as a musician. When Burton passed away in 1986 Metallica went downhill as they lost their true backbone and juice. And they replaced him with mere hired guns to control, just a hired body to fill in, not to have as a real contributor.
