I found out they’re from London at the end of the reaction!! I thought they were American!? 🤯🤪😂🔥
No sir, one of our fine English bands along with Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath and Deep Purple ✌️
There is an American tribute band called "The Iron Maidens", just trying to give you a get out clause 😅.
No prob. I know american people who think Porsche and Mercedes-Benz are american cars.
There's a cool 2 part documentary on iron maiden on UA-cam, there have been a lot of member changes in the band throughout the years, and you'll find out where the skeleton came from.
maiden will be in indio soon and canada, the singer has a solo album due out in 2024.they just finished a tour. ages born 52-58. the 71 yr old drummer had a stroke in jan, paralyzed his whole side but back in rehearsals in may and on the tour and will have his dec rock n ribs party in florida.
They are on tour right now with their most loved lineup ( fun fact: The singer was flying the plane at the beginning of the video!!!) . The drummer had a mini stroke in Jan this year and still started the tour in May. For audiance participation try:- Fear of The Dark (Rock in Rio 2001) it will shock you
South American crowds are insane, so much energy.
@@HasPotatoAimI was there at in Rock In Rio 2001, but I think the audience of Rush in Rio was even more insane... singing along to YYZ, an instrumental.
Bruce the pilot!! ✈️
+1
Maiden released world tour dates for USA in 2024. You better be quick to get your ticket. I've seen them headlining Wacken Open Air this year and they still nail it! 🤘🏼
not only is Bruce a phenomenal singer - he was an Olympic-level fencer and he flys the plane you see at the start 😎🤘
Also runs marathons.. At least until recently
Heard that he has boiled an egg or two at times.
@@FrancoUnAmericanounder two minutes so the legend goes..
and has flight plane full of fans going to gig. 😎
Don't forget he survived throat cancer and still sounds amazing
The mascot’s name is Eddie. He’s absolutely iconic and just as beloved as Iron Maiden. You’re in for a real and true journey, BP. Iron Maiden are one of the most notable bands from their era. Steve Harris, the bassist, writes their songs. He’s known as a godfather of bass playing and Bruce, the vocalist, is in a place all his own. An absolute powerhouse. The whole band is straight 🔥.
Bruce is a great singer he's also a top tier pre-madona that likes to berate his fans, I personally think Paul was better then again ive never been a huge maiden fan seen them a couple of times but the b.d was treating people for smoking pot and stuff just kinda tuned me off of them who talks like that to the people that got him were he is.
Glad to see you discovering Maiden. They’ve been my favourite band for 40 years.
You asked how old the singer (Bruce Dickinson) was. If this was from 2008, he was 50. I saw them two nights ago, and he still sounds amazing at 65-he’s lost a bit of range, but still has impressive power and stamina.
Their mascot is a zombie. His name is Eddie.
I'm a 40 year old metal chick but watching you react to this in particular made my fuckin day!!!! I'd love to introduce you to the greats from a metal chick to a hip hop king. I also have plenty of stories from touring with these bands like maiden and Motorhead and doing merch etc even some good old fashioned groupie times. So happy you're stepping your toe in the waters of theatrical metal....old school. Love Rammstein but I've been waiting for you to get here
you know your legends of rock. I missed out on way too many concerts
There's Maiden, Sabbath and Judas Priest, then there's everyone else. Still touring at a high level.....just incredible.
You've hit the jackpot for lyrics and writing. And learning history. You'll never stop watching and listening to maiden now
I love that you love and appreciate this. This is coming from a 51 year old metal head who Maiden born and bred.
I first saw Iron Maiden live in 1981, that was the first of eleven IM concerts I have assisted to. They are still well alive and kicking and they are currently on the "Future Past" World Tour. The line-up is still the same as you can see in this video from 2008, 15 years older and still running on the stage like crazy. For the next reactions, I would suggest anthems like "Fear of the Dark" or "The Trooper". For an amazing experience, I would also check "The Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner".
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
On earth
As it is in heaven
First live band I ever saw in 1977 at Axminster Village Hall, the last gig before Bruce Dickenson took over as lead singer , I was 7 years old !
@@andrewtims9524 Last gig before Bruce - in '77? Nope, Bruce joined 1981 so Paul Di'anno sang on both albums before that: "Iron Maiden" 1980 and "Killers" 1981. But cool story bro...
@@andrewtims9524-77? Bruce came in -81
Been a Maiden fan for over 40 years. I saw them earlier this year. They are STILL AMAZING. They bring soooo much energy to the table. Their shows are something you will never forget! Bruce is the best storyteller. His crowd control is second to none. If you get a chance, GO SEE THEM! Thanks for the reaction! React to ‘Fear of the Dark’ from Flight 666… then watch the Flight 666 Rockumentary… it will give you some insight to the band
One of the things I love about maiden is how freaking happy they always look on stage like they never grew up.
The best part of the "Devil Music" assumption is the fact that this song is practically a hymn.
Hallowed Be Thy Name starts slow and mournful with an unnamed convict in his cell facing the last day of his life, as he’s scheduled to be hanged today:
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, yeah!
The song picks up pace as the priest arrives to administer last rights, and a side-by-side journey begins for the condemned - on one side his physical walk to the courtyard to face the hangman, and on the other a spiritual journey from terror to anger to serenity to acceptance and finally joy.
It’s in that second journey, and especially in it’s conclusion that the “devil music” assumption falls apart.
When the priest comes to read me the last rites
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 error?
Hard to stop the surmounting terror
Is it really the end, not some crazy dream?
As the Convict tells us what he’s thinking the music becomes an inexorable march. The Convict’s terror comes through in denial, but the beginning of peace begins to creep in as he professes his faith
Somebody, please tell me that I'm dreaming
It's not easy to stop from screaming
The words escape me when I try to speak
Tears flow, but why am I crying?
After all, I'm not afraid of dying
Don't I believe that there never is an end?
He’s not there yet. He still has some anger and frustration to work out:
As the guards march me out to the courtyard
Somebody cries from a cell, "God be with you"
If there's a God, why has he let me go?
The music continues its force march forward as the Convict examines his live and begins to arrive at serenity:
As I walk, my life drifts before me
Though the end is near I'm not sorry
Catch my soul, it's willing to fly away
From there, his faith takes over and he feels truly prepared. His early declaration that he’s not afraid is given reason and conviction:
Mark my words, believe my soul lives on
Don't worry now that I have gone
I've gone beyond to seek 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
The Music continues its seemingly unstoppable pace, but as the song progresses, you can hear it become more and more uplifting, by the end it wouldn't sound out of place in the middle of a Tchaikovsky symphony carried by violins and cellos rather than electric guitars.
By the time the music’s physical march leads the Convict into the courtyard and up the steps to the gallows, he’s no longer afraid, and he’s gone beyond serenity, into the realm of true joy. His voice is raised in ecstasy, as he joyfully begins to sing the only thing on his mind - The Lord’s Prayer:
Yeah-yeah-yeah! Hallowed be thy name!!
Yeah-yeah-yeah! Hallowed by thy name!!
The music takes you through to the end, and you know it’s the end, at least of the story,
But by the end of it, you can’t come away feeling like it’s anything but a hymn.
One of the best metal songs ever written. Maybe THE best.
My cousin was in the original line-up in 1975. He's still alive and I helped him celebrate his 70th birthday last week.
Live Hammersmith 1982, the best one.
Wow bro, he's a legend! 🙌
Bruce still doesn't quite do as good as Paul on some of them. it's just a Paul Sound. Kinda like Bon Scott...
Women in Uniform is one of my favorite Maiden songs....@@strawtube72
Your cousin? Cap.
You didn't state his name or what he did, vocals, guitar, drums.
Bass was always Harris so I know it ain't that.
Bruce became theiir singer for their third and biggest album. He is THE singer. He left for a few years in the 90s, and then returned. Their original drummer fell ill in the early 80s and was replaced by Nicko who has been with them since. The guitarists are also original, with some temorary changes over the years. For all intents and purposes this is the OG band since the early 80s. Legends.
Correction: the original drummer was fired as he could not keep up with the heavy touring schedule, due to his heavy drug use, just like the original singer. His illness came on 10 years later. Guitarist Adrian Smith has been with them since their early days but not day one.
And yet Paul was still their best singer...
I want to congratulate you on going outside your comfort zone to discover the pioneers of metal. Iron Maiden IS still touring and Bruce's voice is still AMAZING! I've been to at least a hundred concerts (mostly rock) and I was lucky enough to get to see this band live - in 2016. It was one of THE BEST live performances a person could ask for! I will never forget this show, which is in my top 5 fave concerts. The energy, the crowd interaction, the top notch vocals and the SIKKK instrumentation makes this band THE ONE to emulate. They are almost 50 yrs strong and still going! They are NOT, however, inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!! Can u believe that???!!! Judas Priest (my fave band) just got inducted 2 yrs ago and they have been around over 50 yrs. (and are STILL performing live). If u react to Judas Priest, you should do Victim of Changes. Also, you should check out Pantera's "Cemetary Gates". It is one of the greatest metal songs ever! Oh, and Ozzy is from England and AC/DC is from Australia, though Angus and his brother Malcom founded the band and they were born in Scotland. P.S. I got to see Ozzy, Judas Priest and AC/DC twice each! Rock on Black Pegasus!
Seeing you smile and appreciate Bruce's voice makes my day. Thanks for being such a down to earth person BP. I appreciate you more than you know for being so cool brother.
They are still going strong. In fact they are playing at the Power Trip festival this weekend at the Coachella festival grounds in SoCal along with ACDC, Metallica, Guns n Roses, Tool, and Judas Priest (who are replacing Ozzy because he just had surgery). Maiden are definitely one of the best live acts around after nearly 50 years. I'll let everyone else in here suggest their best songs to react to but..fun fact..lead singer Bruce Dickinson is a licensed airline pilot and has a special Iron Maiden Boeing 747 that he flies the band around in between shows.
I've been a metal head all my life. Having said that, thankyou so much for diving into raw, beautiful story telling heavy metal!! I'm honored & humbled!! My 25 year old son is properly educating me on RAP.
Hey, new subber here! Bruce Dickinson is 65 years old (also my age) and he still sounds epic! I'm a heavy metal rocker woman that's been listening to Iron Maiden for 48 years. Saw them live seven times, and their performances never disappoint. Love your channel.....so glad I came across this. Great reaction!!! UP THE IRONS 🤘🏼
You are entirely correct, Iron Maiden, together with a few other bands from the UK paved the way for what we today call heavy metal in the late 70s and early 80s. And they're still going strong. They are amazing story tellers and entertainers. If you're going to look into more, I suggest Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner, a 13-minute masterpiece. But go through the lyrics ahead of time, just to follow the story 🙂
A lot of Americans haven't even heard most of the European bands despite the music coming from here. The US was behind.
1. Always good to have the lyrics up, metal usually has deep and meaningful lyrics. 2. You may need to pause the crap out of it and/or blur it since the BBC is heavy handed with copyright, but Judas Priest - Dreamer Deceiver/Deceiver live on the BBC is insane. 3. Love your stuff, especially introducing people to Harry Mack, and I wish you continued success and growth! 🤘😁✌️
Judas Priest,, i’ve heard the name but never the music . Let’s get it!
Most all of their songs have a very good story to them.
priest… yes. dreamer/deciever yes. i would say “electric eye”.
@@ryancunningham6852the new Panic Attack sonv that just dropped a month ago is a good showcase too. Atleast for starters, all of these big bands have 3 to 15 songs from their discography that are crucial to getting the feel of the band IMHO
But yeah Electric Eye is a good one too.
There's no hired writers in metal, really, or at all that I can think of. The songs and lyrics are almost exclusively written by Steve Harris the bass player. It's really his band imo, he stands in the middle of the stage and rocks out and hypes up the crowd. He's a legend.
I took my son to an Iron Maiden concert last year, it was his first ever concert...he was floored... good music is good music.
And then there's Maiden music!!
Bruce Dickinson the vocalist is also a commercial pilot, and flies them around on tour in their own airliner.
I've been a fan of Iron Maiden for about 30 years and have seen them about 10 times live. I absolutely love them... this is my 🎶
I dare you to do their performance of The Clansman in 2001 at Rock In Rio. The whole thing is electric, I promise you'll love. Those South American audiences are insane! Make sure you get those lyrics pulled up too.
Only now I officially accept you in the 40+ club 😀 Awesome reaction man 🔥
I love seeing people hear them for the first time and getting the hype for this band and why you still to this day see their tshirts everywhere!
Great reaction!! I saw Iron Maiden this past Saturday in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It was my sixteen Maiden concert. Was very fortunate to be with my two adult sons and one daughter in-law. Fabulous show, like all the past ones. They give you 100% every night. My favorite band of all time, and can't wait to see them next year. They have tons of Great songs, from.17 studio albums. The current lineup has been the same since Bruce Dickinson and Adrian Smith rejoined in 2001. Up the Irons!!!
Iron maiden actually does sound better live than studio. Not many bands can do that.
No. That’s not true. They sound good live. Usually - those mid to late 80s shows Bruce sounded bad and the songs were often sped up, which is the case here too. Bruce sounds as good as he can at his age then but no way does Maiden sound better live that studio. The ‘82 Beast Over Hammersmith is the closest they ever came.
The songs sound better live than the albums as they evolve over time playing them live
@@troywilkinson160yes
“Better” is very subjective. The studio versions are, obviously, more clean cut and polished. The vocals are often easier to understand. But, the playing is still excellent live, and the energy more than compensates, imo, for the less polished sound.
They also play at a faster tempo live-that’s not inherently better or worse, just different. I love it, but maybe it’s not for everybody?
Maiden pretty much set the bar for all metal bands that has come since 😊 they are amazing
Priest was before Maiden
@@maryannerazzano7692Maiden wipe themselves with Priest.
If you love Bruce's range check out the same song from the Beast Over Hammersmith back in 1982, the performance was just before they released the album it was on and it was the first time out with Bruce in the band. They are still as energetic as ever and their now in their 60's and 70's and still tour.
That performance was FIRE.🔥🔥
I am 48 and I grew up listening to Maiden. For long time I couldn't find another band that would make me follow them like the Irons, until I discovered Nightwish in 1999. They have a huge discography behind them, and its no wonder that some of their music was inspiration for Tuomas.
They are simply the greatest..
Greetings from Serbia
🤘🤘🤘🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🎸🎸🎸
And Stewe Harris is a wery big fan of Nightwish He have called Toumas a freaking genius
Ditto!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now you HAVE to do Fear Of The Dark live in Rio! Absolutely one of the best live performances of any genre throughout history
Another great reaction! Your astonished reaction is almost the same as teenage me hearing this for the first time in 1982! This album helped lead me into a lifelong love of metal. I’m really happy to see some reactors such as you, Doug H and Knox start to show a deep appreciation for the metal soundtrack of my life.
Maiden were one of the "New Wave Of British Heavy Metal" that came soon after bands like Black Sabbath and Deep Purple. They set a high bar when it comes to lyrics because Bruce had a classical education.
They wrote songs about historical moments such as the European settlement of America with "Run To The Hills", the infamous battle known as "the charge of the light brigade" with the song "The Trooper".
Bruce often refers to classical literature in songs like "Rime of the Ancient Mariner".
Bruce also has a melt-down if he smells anyone smoking in the audience because it may hurt his voice.
Steve Harris is the founder and main songwriter often, others contribute here and there
Saw them live in 2019. Absolutely unreal performance. Bruce sounded as good as ever.
Another song you should react to by them is "Fear of The Dark" live in Rock in Rio or "Wasted Years" live in Mexico (Flight 666).
You should also react to Hells Bells by AC/DC live at Donington.
I last saw them in 2019 in Cincinnati, my kid's first concert, and it was incredible as always.
I just saw Iron Maiden last Monday in Vancouver Canada. The music is amazing. The theatrics/Stage show is amazing. They are the complete package. Very few bands or entertainers can compare to level of excellence they put into every performance.
Thank you for having Iron Maiden on your show If you still have that Iron Maiden T-shirt, it's worth a lot of money. I have mine from All the concerts I saw .❤ That Mummy you speak of is named Eddie And each concert he would come out as we screamed for him at the end of the Last Song and he would be dressed For each theme of that concert for the album That just came out. Back in the 70s and 80s. You had to buy your Merch At the concert, you couldn't get it at a store. Could you play Run to The Hills by Iron Maiden? That would be nice. Love your show. God bless You and yours. Rock on😀🤘
Been a Maiden fan since the late 80’s thanks to my dad blasting it out in the car on cassettes. Alot of Maiden songs are about historical events, famous tales, mythology etc.
I found you thanks to your Ren reactions, now here you are reacting to my favourite band ever. A great segway band for you into rock/metal is a band called Skindred, they’re Welsh like Ren. It has hip hop/metal/reggae vibes
Fear of the Dark live in Rio. Sick one, happy to see you listen to this legends.
They're at the Power Trip Festival TODAY in Indio CA
Eddie is their mascot. He on every cover of their albums and has changed over the years. And yes.. Bruce and Steve ( Bass player) do most of the writing
Steve not Bruce, Bruce contribute just like the others
@@osamaqtaitatI haven’t broken down their credits in a long time, but I think Bruce does more than any of the others, after Steve. But, Steve definitely does the most.
@@6li8storm40 idk, maybe Adrian is the 2nd
@@osamaqtaitat He might be. I’d definitely have to look into it. I know Dave has done very little writing, and I’m not sure Nicko has done any.
@@6li8storm40 but i always wondered, the drum lines “idk if that’s a word, but you maybe understand” are written/composed by whom?
Been with you all day Mr Black Pegasus 😊 💚💚💚💚 I watched Rock only in my room but don’t think I ever listened to Iron Maiden. I was scared to push the envelope due to being a Christian. The worst I ever got into was Led Zeppelin and did it hiding 🙈 Led Zeppelin from UK. Jimmy Page was amazing guitarist He played guitar with a violin bow
Every Maiden song is a lesson, a lot of them are actual history lessons!! Eddie is the mascot, he’s amazing!! I’ve seen them live 4 times, and it’s absolutely the closest thing to a Religious experience I’ve ever experienced!!! So glad you finally found them, please dive down this rabbit hole!!!! UP THE IRONS!!!! 🤘😎🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
i just saw the a year ago. they're still rocking it hard at 60!! Yes they're still on it, and planning another tour in 2024. Will be going.
This is an amazing reaction! So great to see you discover them. Fun fact, there is an all female iron maiden tribute band called "the Iron Maidens" that are endorsed by the band and perform internationally, they are amazing. You should do a reaction to them
Saw them play in Osaka several years ago after hearing they'd be in town. As a long time metal fan, I believe they know what the hell they're doing. Their performance was excellent and it didn't occur to me during the performance they were a cover band. They had such a great feel for Maiden's songs.
you just made my day, Maiden is my all time favourite band and you had the perfect reaction, here's hoping for a Maiden rabbit hole in the future!!! Keep up the good work BP.
I was blessed that my mother introduced us kids to Iron Maiden when we were young. My love of metal grew from there! Rock on!
Still doing it in 2023! Can't wait to see them again!
"This is what people copy." No truer words were ever spoken. These guys, Black Sabbath, and Judas Priest are generally cited by every band who followed as the originators. Keep in mind, Bruce Dickinson was born in the 50s, and for him to still have that energy on stage (and to still retain most of his vocal prowess) is amazing!
This reaction was great! It was exactly how i felt when I first listened to them, as a 14 year old, in the early 80's 😂
Man great reaction.... go deep you will be surprised 😊
Interesting fact for you; The singer, Bruce Dickinson, is recognised as a living polymath due to his mastery/expertise of so many different fields, such as being an olympic grade fencer and a registered airline pilot, amongst many other things.
Saw them first at MONSTERS OF ROCK, Donington UK in 1988. They were top of the bill and amazing energy. Guns N Roses were only 5th on the bill at that time. There was also Kiss, David Lee Roth, Megadeth on the same bill.
Holy crap! 😱
I was at that show as well! It was EPIC! 🤘😝🤘
Believe Helloween was there as well, if I remember right.
I still have my ticket stub and the huge concert program book thing they were selling.
🤘😎
@@hurricane7479 It was epic. My first proper concert at age 18. 2 people killed in a crush though...a surge for the stage I believe. I remember one of the guys we were on the coach with said "yeah, 2 people died in the crush....they were only able to identify them by their tattoos'. Dark humour but an amazing concert.
@@tunokies That crush was the scariest moment I've ever been involved in at a gig. My girlfriend was just dragged under a load of people and i was just hanging on to the back of her jacket trying to keep her somewhat upright as we struggled to go backwards with thousands of people going forwards. I wasn't at all surprised to hear people had died, I was surprised it was only 2 to be honest. To top it off my mate who was driving fell asleep at the wheel on the way home, careered into the central reservation on the motorway, span all the way back across and rolled it down a ditch. none of us had a scratch on us! One of the craziest days of my life! Apart from that the gig was epic😂
@@StuTheMoose The gods of rock were looking down on you that day for sure. It was my first proper gig too. (I don't count Tpau, who were rubbish BTW 😭). Bruce Springsteen in Cardiff Arms Park a few years ago was my 2nd best gig of all time.
Great reaction bp 😎
Number of the Beast was the first album I ever bought, age 15 .. absolutely love it to this day 🤟
“Hallowed be Thy Name” is a great Maiden pick for a first Maiden review!
welcome to iron maiden black p. bruce dickenson is a vocal powerhouse. iron maiden is one of the few bands that sound the same live as they do in the studio.
Loved this Black P. Your energy was incredible. Love it when music that you haven't experienced before gives you a new outlook on the genre.
Hey. Great video. It’s fantastic to see your first reaction. I took my son on Monday night here in Vancouver, BC. They are all in their late 60s and early 70s now. And wow, they put on an energetic show. It's just incredibly youthful. It will also blow your mind that they have an Iron Maiden soccer team, and the bassist has a second band he plays in. You have just listened to the tip of the iceberg with this song. Iron Maiden has a vast library of incredible music. They have sold over 130 million albums worldwide.
I was at the Vancouver show, too-only two of my four kids with me this time. The boys were both out of town. Fantastic, as always. My voice is coming back.
I saw them in 2019 in Pittsburgh. My 5th time. Fan since 1981. UP THE IRONS!
this was written in 1982. Beautiful songwriting. I suppose thats why us old folks still love this stuff. Thanks for the reaction :)
love that you're expanding your musical horizons. not all the original members. ac/dc is Australian. i greww up on this stuff so...yeah. dint make all my pastors happy lol
it's funny. in my church youth group we had a young pastor, and he encouraged us to listen to all kinds of music. However, he'd also like us to bring our fav songs to group, so we could listen, and try an break down the lyrics to see if we could detect what the message was.
Very little of '80s metal, or metal in general is ' satanic, most of it was a gimmic to go against the establishment for those that used the imagery. The ' Satanic Panic ' of the '80s was crazy, and why we now have rating labels. Because Tiper Gore an her bunch of busy bodies couldn't get music censored like they wanted due to First Ammendment.
Bruce, the singer, is a pilot and flies that bad ass plane 😂. Please do Fear Of The Dark live as well
Bruce has retired from piloting due to aging out!!
“This is the genuine article.” Yep.
Thank you for reading that out, so often it just gets passed over. Sometimes we just have to recognise the reality in front of us
Whatever Maiden songs you choose next, odds are the Rock In Rio versions will be killer. Those crowds are insane down there.
That's a great song to start your Maiden journey
Hope it's the live version❤
Maiden are the truth..........still smashing it to this day
You picked one of the best iron maiden songs to break into. I'd recommend Rime of the Ancient Mariner (any live) or Fear of the Dark (live rio) as your next selection.
Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Uriah heap, Pink Floyd, The who, and Rolling Stones came before. :)
Facts. Ozzy is a legend!!!
@@kaynesheldon4905 What would he say about THAT guitar solo in Pink Floyd - Comfortably numb, live at Pulse?
@@Alithia451 yooooo😂 for real. Throw some Grateful Dead at him as well see how he reacts to that haha
Or some Motley Crew. Haha
The white stripes. All these good bands man. He needs to check out haha
I first heard them in 1982, I've been hooked ever since. It's good to see a new fan of theirs hearing them for the first time and seeing what they are live. They set the bar so high nobody can touch them. They still perform with that energy and great sound and they are going on tour in 2024. Bruce battled cancer, beat it, released a solo project in 2023 and Iron maiden is still touring right now. Bruce didn't die.
Better to be late to the party than not to go at all 😂. Maiden are rock gods, so happy you found them. Cheers!!
Absolutely the genuine article. Iron Maiden is the greatest metal band ever. Period. Their lyrics and singing are poetic, operatic, historic. The music is symphonic, dynamic, complex. Their stage shows are epic, electric, engaging.
One of if not the best storytelling band of all time
I was at that concert! Still have the T-Shirts from those shows. Up The Irons!
I have seen Iron Maiden three times, mid 80s, 90s and 20s. I plan to see them every time they come to my town. I love their music and their live performances.
Welcome to Iron Maiden!! Try Writing on the Wall, that's a great official video!
Singer Bruce Dickinson was also a commercial airline captain, with type ratings for 737, 757, and 747 , and used to fly their tour plane round the world. He flew commercially for Astraeus, and has piloted airlifts out of conflict zones
Great reaction BP love a bit of Maiden, they were my introduction to the rock scene in the late 90s 🇬🇧
@Black Pegasus, Just found your channel, and first off, I'm an OLD rocker from the early70's on I listened to rock music, and after the army, I jocked FM radio playing Rock, so when I say, always, always have the lyrics handy, when we listened to albums back in the 70's we had the lyrics to most songs on the album sleeves, sometimes they didn't, but once it caught on, it became more prevalant...secondly, always try to listen to the album version first, when it comes to rock, then "go to the concert" like we did in the day, you hear how they wanted to music to sound...love the channel, and solely on this video I sublscribed...Rock on Brother.
One of my favorite reactions to this awesome song! Thank you so much for picking this! I was lucky enough to see them live in Detroit in the 80’s! Such a blast. 🤗🤗
I love it when reactors discover my favourite bands!
Any band that's been around for 50 + years, ya have to respect and have a listen. These guys have been at the top of the mountain the entire time. Legendary just doesn't do them justice, I don't know what's beyond legendary but that's where Iron Maiden reins. One of the best live concerts I've seen was on MTV or VH! years ago - Maiden's Rock n Rio from the early 2000's, these guys tore that place down. The crowd was insane - what a show. There are no words to really describe how good it was.
Legendary and absolute influence on later bands, this is the real deal. And still going. You will be blown away by their 17th studio album, Senjutsu, released in 2021. 40+ years and still touring and going strong!
Iron Maiden are still preforming at this level. This song was the last song of the concert. They still had this much energy after over 2 hours of high energy performance.
Still have my Iron Maiden shirts from the 80s. Amazing band. Great reaction bro!
It's pretty cool to see both your subscriber and musical growth. Really digging it.
Go back and look at an 80's live version! I've seen maiden live twice, once in the late 80's and early 90's. Superior live performances live!!
I saw them Live in 2018, legends tour.. Stunning live band .
I loved Iron Maiden. I saw them in 1981 in sydney Australia and was blown away. Love love love Eddie.
Well sir, exceptional take. Thank you for recognizing the GENIUS that is Iron Maiden.
Thank you Black Pegasus!!!❤
You are a metalhead, welcome brother. Not only is the door wide open, but the seat at the table is already pulled out and waiting to serve you a backlog of awesome new music.
You do many good things. You brought me to Ren. But these videos, where you show genuine curiosity, openness and willingness to listen, react and evolve are mighty respectful
Seventh Son of a Seventh son was my first concert!!! Such a history lesson when you rock out to Maiden!🤘🤘
I'm 52. Been a Maiden fan since 1980. Love seeing new blood getting blown away. People never new unless you listen. They are the real deal. Yes ... People copy them. They are original. They go back to the 70s 12:10
Been a fan for 37 years, the trooper is worth a listen, and run to the hills
