I know this is an old video but this is really well done man, im learning how to play guitar and Id honestly love to be able to play this for my dad someday Were both hardcore iron maiden fans and attended their SA concert in 2015 I believe Best damn time of my life and the closest ive ever been with my dad
Congratulations and I can imagine how touched they are hearing your brilliant iteration and celebration of the music that is Iron Maiden. No better honor . Beautiful artisty and pure emotion and spirit.
I'm a die hard Maiden fan and this song almost moves me to tears, also because ten years ago I lost my father and every time I listen to it I remember him. A true masterpiece, thanks for this version, it really touches the heart.
I'm sorry for your lost friend. This song was the one that I going to dance at my wedding with the only woman that I loved and who is no longer with me anymore and I don't know anything about her. This song takes me to that time. This beautifull version makes me feel nostalgic. Greetings from Chile.
I am from Bangladesh....since my childhood i am a diehard maiden fan......one of maidens best touching song ...and such unbelievable cover.. Love from Bangladesh
I can say thousands words, for this song helped me to get my daughter. 2007, June My wife brought me my daughter on 06.06.07. When I heard a phone call from medical, that my daughter was born, I was listening this great song. My tears, forever
First of all, Steve Harris is THE songwriter of all times and Maiden is THE band. Hearing the best songs ever written this way makes you realize even more how fxxxxxg awsome they are!
From the Blaze years I did The Clansman, it's on my album with Blaze himself on vocals as a special guest. From the Paul years I'm currently working on Phantom Of The Opera!
I'm so glad and feel so blessed to have grown up in this era of music, and to see what people like Zwijsen are doing with it today. So utterly inspiring.
Thank you for helping me introduce my 97 year old grandmother to Iron Maiden! I am not being sarcastic I mean it she loved that version of the song and so did I. She did not believe that it was Maiden until I played the original for her. She likes yours better. 👏😀
Thomas, I can´t begin to tell you how emotional I became when I saw your video. Iron Maiden has been a huge part of my life since I was a little kid and you playing this song made me cry and remind me of my young days. Thank you!!
As much as this is arguably the most beautiful rendition of this song, you can't help but LOVE the way his cat tries to jump at something on the wall @ 3:59🤣
my tears drop unstoppable. thanks to steve harris for this priceless song. thanks for the band members who made this song eternally great. and you, Thomas, really did a great job.
Just as this version has no words, such as there are no words to describe the beauty of this. This is just... wow. Beautiful. Well done sir, well done.
And if you're taking a walk through the garden of life What do you think you'd expect you would see? Just like a mirror reflecting the moves of your life And in the river reflections of me … Just for a second a glimpse of my father I see And in a movement he beckons to me And in a moment the memories are all that remain And all the wounds are reopening again … We're blood brothers We're blood brothers We're blood brothers We're blood brothers … And as you look all around at the world in dismay What do you see, do you think we have learned Not if you're taking a look at the war-torn affray Out in the streets where the babies are burned … We're blood brothers We're blood brothers We're blood brothers We're blood brothers … There are times when I feel I'm afraid for the world There are times I'm ashamed of us all When you're floating on all the emotion you feel And reflecting the good and the bad … Will we ever know what the answer to life really is? Can you really tell me what life is? Maybe all the things that you know that are precious to you Could be swept away by fate's own hand … We're blood brothers We're blood brothers We're blood brothers We're blood brothers … When you think that we've used all our chances And the chance to make everything right Keep on making the same old mistakes Makes untipping the balance so easy When we're living our lives on the edge Say a prayer on the book of the dead … We're blood brothers We're blood brothers We're blood brothers We're blood brothers … And if you're taking a walk through the garden of life
quiero decir que es el mejor cover de iron maiden que e escuchado y tambien quengacias a tu musica me impulsaste a seguir con mi sueño de un gran guitarrista muchas gracias
+Thomas Zwijsen Coincido plenamente con Rafael Rove. He buscado acústicos de Maiden y realmente a todos les falta ese plus que digo yo que es el sentimiento, la pasión. Este acústico es excelente y encontré lo que buscaba, deleitarme con una versión espectacular. Mis felicitaciones loco!
Me faz lembrar de quando eu era jovem e meu pai ainda estava vivo. Hoje já sou um homem, e ele se foi. Somos irmãos de sangue. It reminds me when I was young and my father was alive. Now I'm already a man, and he is gone. We're blood brothers.
Amazing talent my friend. I know talent when I see it and discovered you 6 plus years ago. Love you to pieces Robert may he RIP your lifted and brought his light back. Thank you for your beautiful music and the memories you left us!
Wow. Love all the versions of your acoustic Maiden songs, but this is my favorite. Its amazing how, when played in a different style, it really reflects just how awesome the song writing is by everyone in Iron Maiden. Your musicianship only enhances thier abilities and takes it to all new level. Bravo! Up the acoustic irons!
Thanks! Bruce, Steve and Janick have my cd, and Janick told me on the phone that he really liked it :)

Quem diria que teria br aqui tbm
I've listen this song a thousand times, and every time can't help thinking "What a masterpiece".
One of the best Maiden songs and albums.
From the Blaze years I did The Clansman, it's on my album with Blaze himself on vocals as a special guest. From the Paul years I'm currently working on Phantom Of The Opera!
Fucking epic!
Blaze was, are and will be.
I'd like to listen the evil that men do..

One of the most beautiful songs ever composed
This is surreal...
You sir are Amazing...

excelente melodia e arranjo, dos melhores covers que escutei, parabens.
Absolutely fantastic!
As much as this is arguably the most beautiful rendition of this song, you can't help but LOVE the way his cat tries to jump at something on the wall @ 3:59🤣
listening to this beautiful version you understand the level of composition that maiden musicians have.
Thank you!!
I can't stop asking myself why someone would downvote this guy...
He's great!
The most beautiful music in the world. This is unbelievably amazing.
Great job....i love maiden and i began to play guitar 1 month ago.

my tears drop unstoppable. thanks to steve harris for this priceless song. thanks for the band members who made this song eternally great. and you, Thomas, really did a great job.
Amazing... Can't believe it's the first time I'm listening to it.
Gratz.
Thomas Zwijsen
You are the best. I'm your fan !!!
Amazing arrangement of an amazing song by an amazing guitar player (you, Thomas..).. thank you for sharing your art.. ciao
Just as this version has no words, such as there are no words to describe the beauty of this. This is just... wow. Beautiful. Well done sir, well done.
6:33 what a nice sound of strings $-$, simply amazing (:
Probably the most inspired instrumental cover of a song that I have heard.
And if you're taking a walk through
the garden of life
What do you think you'd expect you
would see?
Just like a mirror reflecting the
moves of your life
And in the river reflections of me
…
Just for a second a glimpse of my
father I see
And in a movement he beckons to me
And in a moment the memories are all
that remain
And all the wounds are reopening again
…
We're blood brothers
We're blood brothers
We're blood brothers
We're blood brothers
…
And as you look all around at the
world in dismay
What do you see, do you think we
have learned
Not if you're taking a look at the
war-torn affray
Out in the streets where the babies
are burned
…
We're blood brothers
We're blood brothers
We're blood brothers
We're blood brothers
…
There are times when I feel I'm afraid
for the world
There are times I'm ashamed of us all
When you're floating on all the
emotion you feel
And reflecting the good and the bad
…
Will we ever know what the answer
to life really is?
Can you really tell me what life is?
Maybe all the things that you know
that are precious to you
Could be swept away by fate's
own hand
…
We're blood brothers
We're blood brothers
We're blood brothers
We're blood brothers
…
When you think that we've used
all our chances
And the chance to make
everything right
Keep on making the same
old mistakes
Makes untipping the balance so easy
When we're living our lives on
the edge
Say a prayer on the book of the dead
…
We're blood brothers
We're blood brothers
We're blood brothers
We're blood brothers
…
And if you're taking a walk through
the garden of life
I don´t know how can you play to this way! is amazing! excellent!!!
fantastic sound, but out, what caught my attention is also the cat in the video background playing with the reflection of light
I can hear this song looping over and over again, great!
I find this the most accomplished among all Nylon Maiden songs....
Anatoly Krast The nylon guitar sound just suits this song so well.
Correct and Rainmaker as well. All credits to Thomas and Maiden of course! Really good works.
Anatoly Krast For sure. Rainmaker was the first Maiden song by Thomas I heard. Amazing stuff.
Absolutely incredible. I shake my head in amazement
3:30 cat tries to catch the light on the wall :DDD
Congratulations when I feeling tired it feels me happy and relax thank u
love it love it love it!! thumbs up!
Thomas, thanks for sharing, you are very talented! From México, thousand kisses for you!

Me faz lembrar de quando eu era jovem e meu pai ainda estava vivo. Hoje já sou um homem, e ele se foi. Somos irmãos de sangue.
It reminds me when I was young and my father was alive. Now I'm already a man, and he is gone. We're blood brothers.
Nesse caso vocês são pai e filho mesmo.

This is what acoustic guitar covers should be like. Not like the two chords Jason Mraz shit you see Filipino kids playing at Church.
46 people have no sense of what is good music.

Amazing talent my friend. I know talent when I see it and discovered you 6 plus years ago. Love you to pieces Robert may he RIP your lifted and brought his light back. Thank you for your beautiful music and the memories you left us!
This proves Iron Maiden is classical music.
A perfect arrangement. I'm utterly blown away.
Wow. Love all the versions of your acoustic Maiden songs, but this is my favorite. Its amazing how, when played in a different style, it really reflects just how awesome the song writing is by everyone in Iron Maiden. Your musicianship only enhances thier abilities and takes it to all new level. Bravo! Up the acoustic irons!
Lo mejor e,e espero escuchar mas canciones tuyas
Absolutely amazing. Actually brought me to tears. Beautiful.
Me alegraste el día. Un abrazo desde la Ciudad de Buenos Aires.
I'm about 15 weeks pregnant, and I've got this playing for baby in headphones. So beautiful.
Just great! How melodic is this song!
Bravo Thomas . Beautifully played . Gives another dimension to a great song . Love the cat antics too !
Very nice job. I used this song for calm my 5 months old son. After that he always nice sleep. Thanks for amazing sound.
