    ABOUT IRON MAIDEN:
    Iron Maiden are an institution. Over the course of six decades they have come to embody a spirit of fearless creative independence, ferocious dedication to their fans, and a cheerful indifference to their critics that’s won them a following that spans every culture, generation, and time-zone. A story of gritty determination and courageous defiance of the naysayers, theirs has been an adventure like no other.
    The band’s immense discography includes the studio albums ‘The Number Of The Beast’, ‘Piece Of Mind’, ‘Powerslave, ‘Somewhere In Time’, ‘Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son’, ‘Fear Of The Dark’, ‘The Final Frontier’ and ‘The Book Of Souls’ which have spawned many classic hits as ‘The Trooper’, ‘Wasted Years’, ‘Hallowed Be Thy Name’, ‘Wasting Love’, ‘Run To The Hills’, ‘Aces High’, ‘Rime Of The Ancient Mariner’ and ‘2 Minutes to Midnight’.

    • @onlyguitars
      @onlyguitars Рік тому +7

      I love this album! The thing about this album I think that doesnt rank as high as TNOTB, Powerslave, SSOASS is that just like Piece of mind (that is also one of my favroites) is that overal doesnt flow as good as the other ones as an album, not that is bad, is just that the others, in particular SSOASS flows perfectly as an album.
      The 2nd thing, and thats also in the context it came out, the tone is not as raw as the other albums. the more synth guitar tone makes this one a bit less heavy metal.
      But if you ask me I love this album, and I love each album as their own thing.

    Steve Harris is a bass god. The perfect timing and driving just keeps that engine running. What a band and what a song. Steve was the reason i picked up a bass and adopted his style, 29 years later and he signed my bass on the Book of Souls tour Sout Africa. Maiden for life.

    This song was played at my mothers funeral, I was only 11 at that time. But me and my brother grew up with my dads metal CDs. This song really related to my mother, as she came from Romania to here in the Netherlands, but never could find any connection to the people here sadly, she passed away from suicide unfortunatly... Strangly this song always brings a smile and a tear to my face, as it's such a masterpiece but it also has many sad memories. I know my mom is now in a better and peaceful place❤ RIP

    Was many years ago that I left home and came this way
    I was a young man, full of hope and dreams
    But now it seems to me that all is lost and
    nothing gained
    Sometimes things ain't what they seem
    No brave new world, no brave new world
    No brave new world, no brave new world
    Night and day I scan horizon, sea and sky
    My spirit wanders endlessly
    Until the day will dawn and friends from home
    discover why
    Hear me calling, rescue me
    Set me free, set me free
    Lost in this place, and leave no trace
    [Chorus:]
    Stranger in a strange land
    Land of ice and snow
    Trapped inside this prison
    Lost and far from home
    One hundred years have gone and men again
    they came that way
    To find the answer to the mystery
    They found his body lying where it fell all that day
    Preserved in time for all to see
    No brave new world, no brave new world
    Lost in this place, and leave no trace
    What became of the man that started
    All are gone and their souls departed
    Left me here in this place
    So all alone

    What became of the man that started
    All are gone and their souls departed
    Left me here in this place

    I always loved the futuristic sound of the Somewhere In Time album. The guitar, bass, synths drums, and everything about it was damn near perfect. Adrian Smith was definitely the highlight musician on this album. Every song on the album sounds like it could be on a best of or greatest hits Maiden.

    Was many years ago that I left home and came this way
    I was a young man, full of hopes and dreams
    But now it seems to me that all is lost and nothing gained
    Sometimes things ain't what they seem
    No brave new world, no brave new world
    No brave new world, no brave new world
    Night and day I scan the horizon, sea and sky
    My spirit wanders endlessly
    Until the day will dawn and friends from home discover why
    Here me calling, rescue me
    Set me free, set me free
    Lost in this place, and leave no trace
    Stranger in a strange land
    Land of ice and snow
    Trapped inside this prison
    Lost and far from home
    One hundred years have gone and men again they came that way
    To find the answer to the mystery
    They found his body lying where it fell on that day
    Preserved in time for all to see
    No brave new world, no brave new world
    Lost in this place, to leave no trace
    What became of the men that started
    All are gone and their souls departed
    Left me here in this place
    So all alone
    Stranger in a stranger in a strange land
    Land of ice and snow
    Trapped inside this prison
    Lost and far from home! ..... "

      It's as if bands don't even sit down with the producers and engineers to create a sound for each instrument and make them come together these days. It feels like there's now a golden standard for how a heavy metal album is supposed to sound, and everybody uses the same "template" for everything. Definitely not as much variety between different bands' sounds these days.

    Εκτός από την έκσταση όταν ακούς μέιντεν..τα συναισθήματα που ξεχειλίζουν...τι σκηνική παρουσία είναι αυτή...γεμίζει τον χώρο...γεμίζει την ψυχή σου...δεν υπάρχουν λόγια...απλά μεγαλειώδες.

    One of the best guitar solos I've ever heard - the way it builds.... Adrian showing his sheer class and mastery of the guitar - mind blowing!

    This song has such class, it is so elegantly build up... So much good taste in all its construction.
    The intro, the pace of the verses, the chorus, the interlude to the solo... The solo, the closing absolutely one of their top songs!

    Ah, a nice piece of classic '86 Maiden. They were the days, of course you have to be at least 40 to really appreciate the era, and say 'I was there'!😃😊👍. Up the Irons

    I come for that bass solo every time and leave happy every time. So melodic and beautiful. That is what I imagine paradise to sound like.

    Somewhere in time and 7th son are my two fav Maiden albums, and that is much credit to Adrian Smith. They never get old and still sound fresh.
