What an amazing performance. The solos hit hard - they played them basically note for note as in the studio version which is simply amazing. This has always been my favorite maiden song - the melodies are pure beauty - still can’t believe that I have seen it live finally. Thanks for sharing!
Well, Adrian had to changee the middle solo, 2 have different pitches, which is a shame, but necessary because it's not always audible, being so delicate. If youu want to Here, closer to the album - he played it in Norway on 1 UA-cam Smart phone recording, but on another Phone from the same performance in Norway, part of it is Inaudible, demonstrating the problem
@@Mawa991 I actually really like the new middle section from Adrian, the studio version has it's place but this version is much better for a live arena setting!
@@Gareth_J Come on guys, those changes are details. What I meant is that they didn't completely divert from the studio. I am not a Janick hater at all, but the idea that he could play Adrian's solo and basically completely change it made me feel a bit anxious before seeing them. Alexander the Great is a very delicate song for me, it has a certain feeling of being heavy and light at the same time which I have always loved. They nailed that feeling perfectly.
I love how Bruce doesn’t move at all during this performance he just wants to nail it and he does. Simply amazing in Dublin and this video rocks. Amazing tour and performance from them as always
As a Maiden fan of 36 years standing I was sure there was no chance I'd ever see this song live. If Maiden don't play a song on the initial album tour then they never play it afterwards. But,here we go. As far as I can work out now, the only classic era Maiden songs I haven't heard live are Still Life, To Tame a Land and Infinite Dreams. Come on Maiden, To Tame a Land next time...
He's probably knackered, because not only did he play, Virtually everything on SIT, but for some reason they chose songs he performs most of the rhythm and lead in other tracks e.g. the prisoner. *They should have chosen 1 more track off SIT, e.g: sea of madness and then all of The tracks, Not on Senjutsu should have been chosen from when Adrian wasn't in the band, e.g.Where Janick is more involved
How you define tyrant and war criminal? Yes he was a king... In an era with wars...Filippos married many women and probably Olympiada was the one who ordered his execution. Why blame Alexandros. He knew that he was Filippos' choice for his throne consecution. He had the proper education and training

Thanks for such imaginations and pattern to follow 🙂.
@@VictorSilva-qf2tu And the tune, btw, musically is good (but Maiden's got way better tunes than that one) and the band is one of my favourites. Anything you wanna know yet?
Adrian the Great stars in a song about Alexander the Great. Simply awesome!
bravo à Steve d'avoir composé un morceau épique et très évocateur.
🇬🇷🤟UP THE IRONS! WHAT A CLASSIC 💥

The boys played it brilliantly - I absolutely loved it. Watching them up close playing it live was superb - I’m still smiling.
Adrian mf'ing Smith!!!!
Hell of a performance.. wow. Adrian and Dave playing beautifully
I love how Bruce doesn’t move at all during this performance he just wants to nail it and he does. Simply amazing in Dublin and this video rocks. Amazing tour and performance from them as always

DAVE MURRAY IS GOD.
Great Video, great performance but Adrian looks a bit sad.

Why can't they just make a live recording of this song?
they recording everything from last 30 yrs :-)
Is there an official video of this song somewhere?
Btw, song about tyrant,war criminal and one involved in murder of his own father 🙂

You criticise someone you can't even reach with your imagination, sitting behind your phone🙂

The crowd’s vocals were pretty weak. Flat, sharp, completely chaotic. If you’re going to sing along, sing in tune please.
LIKE YOU RIGHT???
