This is one of the best albums ever released. You’d be good to just listen to the whole thing beginning to end.
I plan to!
Always loved this song. Great album too.
I'm gonna dive in!
The best album Bruce ever put out. Doesn't matter if you include his Maiden work, Chemical Wedding still wins.
Along with its predecessor, this album spawned the return of Bruce and Adrian to Iron Maiden, since they were SO MUCH better than the albums IM released at the same time
Accident of birth with Adrian Smith
I remember hearing this when the album came out and it was just amazing album.
You need to hear "Tears Of The Dragon"
You got it!
My favorite song.
Bruce could literally sing about tax reform, and it would be badass. He just has one of those voices that is always on point. Grew up with Iron Maiden, and he is iconic. Great song.
HAHHA I love his voice!
Hell Yeah he could.

Yes!! I think millions of people can recognise Bruce Dickinson's voice in less than one second. He's absolutely unique. A legend!
The album cover is a painting by William Blake. The album is structured around the art and poetry of William Blake. Listen to it as a whole.
The Ghost of a Flea
Accident of Birth and The Chemical Wedding. I've listened to both albums thousands of times since the nineties, and they never got boring.
2 of my favorite albums, ever.
Here's a fun fact (or maybe it's apocryphal, but I've heard it so many times, it's probably true, lol)...
The backing band for this album were members of "Tribe of Gypsies", a local L.A. Band.
Roy Z, from Tribe of gypsies was recording in the same studio, but was not satisfied with the demo they had recorded, and didn't want it to be heard by anyone, telling his sound engineer to bury it until he had a chance to re-record some parts.
So Roy walks in later at night to see if he could "fix" it, and there's Bruce at the desk, browsing some of the local talent, listening to their demo, and he thought it was awesome. That chance encounter kicked off a long collaboration, co-writing, co-producing. Tribe opened for Bruce on his Japan tour. Don't get hung up on things being perfect. If it sounds good enough to the right people, success follows from there.
Regarding the song and album content. The artwork is a painting by Wiliam Blake, whose poetry is also featured in some of the songs. The "Chemical Wedding" is an alchemical term for the synthesis of the philosopher's stone, which could transmute lesser materials into gold. This material "purification" was also thought to purify people, redeem the damned and make them holy. If alchemists found the formula, they could create Heven on earth, ridding it of evil, disease, death, famine, etc.
Now, if you want to go off the deep end with Bruce, I'd recommend "Ballad of Mutt", and "I'm in a Band with an Italian Drummer". Just him fucking around when recording, fun songs, not to be taken seriously.
dude thank you so much for the insight and info! I plan on checking out more for sure!
Fun Fact...The Guitar was played with Bass Strings...awesome idea
Chemical Wedding is my favorite album. It will blow your mind.
The whole album is a masterpiece. BTW, Book of Thel is the best song of the album by far.
Bruce solo's stuff is great, dude.
Thanks for reaction.
Yea this was amazing!
This album is gold !!
I love how this chorus comes back in the alchemist at the end of the album.
WHAT a song this is!!!
SO TRUE!
I love Iron Maiden, but I never listened to any solo works or side projects from the band. This was different, but awesome. His voice is just something else...
yea this was amazing!
Dude I haven't listened to this album in a minute, thanks to the Patron who suggested it! Bruce is truly one of my favorite Metal singers!
I'll get to an Iron Maiden request one of these days. Up the Irons!! 🤘🤘
Listening to this song for 22 years, never heard the Phantom of the Opera similarity, now I won’t be able to unhear it. I really enjoy most of Bruce’s solo work. “Tears of the Dragon” is mandatory, but “The Alchemist” is a good follow up to this song.
Doesn't matter if you didn't realise instantly. Bruce is a world on his own. Listen to the whole Chemical Wedding album, its honestly pure magic! Better than anything Maiden have ever put out arguably. Bruce is incredible
Good idea checking this album out man. Amazing album all the way through. Most of his solo shit is insanely good. Better than a lot of Maiden
I CAN'T BELIEVE I DIDN"T REALIZE WHO IT WAS AT FIRST LOL
@@TheWolffAndTheMelody LOL well now you know! After Chemical Wedding listen to Accident of Birth. Both albums are amazingly good. Great lyrics and riffs/solos are top notch.
The album cover is "ghost of a flea" by William Blake
One of my favourite albums ever, but this is not the song I would choose as a first dive. Try The Tower, Book of Thel, Jerusalem or The Alchemist instead. Or the whole album.
hell yea! Will check out more.
Last great album from Maiden/Bruce in general
This album is a masterpiece.. Dive in
chemical wedding is so awesome! you'd do yourself a favour to listen to more of bruces solo career! :) especially late 90's
SOOO GOOD!
suggestion from a Brazilian... listen to "screen for me Brazil" this song, tears of dragon and the tower is fantastic.

Heres a live version from 3 days ago. I cant comprehend how good he is still! Livong legend.
Love to see your reaction to it, or just let me know what you think
Im gonna have ti see some live!
Temazoooooo
Watched him on the Hellfest live stream, he played this too , it was a great gig
Dude I gotta hear more.
This song, It is sweet. Man, he still can compete -- even now in an older man’s clothes. Da, da-da, ditty daa... Da, dum. (-; ••• RAW! MAN!! Noodles!!!
Hell yea!
What a great song!
I'm so glad you like this!
Great song, the refrain is on another level. It's remarkable how good Dickinson's solo material is compared to Iron Maiden at the respective time, except Brave New Word.
I gotta hear it!
You're hurting yourself if you don't listen to the whole thing. Better than maiden
