LYRICS
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
When the priest comes to read me the last rites
I 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 an error
Hard to stop the surmounting terror
Is it really the end not some crazy dream?
Somebody please tell me that I'm dreaming
It's not easy to stop from screaming
But words escape me when I try to speak
Tears they flow but why am I crying?
After all I am not afraid of dying
Don't I believe that there never is an end?
As the guards march me out to the courtyard
Someone calls from a cell "God be with you"
If there's a God then why has he let me die?
As I walk all my life drifts before me
And though the end is near I'm not sorry
Catch my soul 'cause it's willing to fly away
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 there is just a strange illusion
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Hallowed be Thy name
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Hallowed be Thy name

We can see such respect and admiration for Iron Maiden in this, it gives me goosebumps. Best Maiden cover in my opinion.
Take a listen to Testament's cover of Powerslave. Tough choice.
You should listen to cradle of filth cover of this song
I completely agree!!
MH is the best cover. 8/10
CoF 4/10 at best
It is a beast of a cover. Music pretty much the same but the vocals suit the lyrical content so well...
It takes guts to cover these timeless songs. Gutsier are those who do this their own way. Great going Machine Head !
Just a fantastic job and you are dead on correct.
I'm a die hard Maiden Fan and I must say this is well and truly phenomenal. fabulous stuff from machinehead
Love it!
Love this
Huge Maiden fan too. This is actually the first cover of the song I've ever heard...and it is bloody good! I reckon Bruce and the guys would give this the 👍🤘
@Dr S4T4N Are you trying to use the word “gay” as some kind of insult? I think that says a lot more about you than you think.
@Dr S4T4N what for a Bullshit
I was lucky enough to see them perform this not too long ago. Machinehead is so under-rated. One of the best metal shows still performing. My 50 year old ass even jumped in the mosh pit
Same here dude... I'm 49 and been following Machine Head since burn my eyes. And yes, they are insane live
I’m 50 also, first concert I ever been to was Maiden, I was 14 years old at Radio center music hall. Machine Head nailed this.🤘🏻🤘🏻
I saw them during the touring cycle for this album. They sounded amazing!
Glad you survived!!!
I'm 58 & I saw Machinehead open for Slayer (Seasons in the Abyss tour) & I had never even heard the name "Machinehead" before. Had no Idea who they were but, I was BLOWN AWAY by how good they were! They didn't blow Slayer away but, they probably stood on equal footing when the show was over. I went out the very next day & picked up the "Burn my eyes" C.D..
I think this is the best cover I've heard. Absolutely brilliant.
Perhaps second best, Orgasmatron by Sepultura #1
What about Craddle of Filth? I don't mean machinehead is bad.
Iced earth for me n.1
This would be the National Anthem if Metal had a FLAG...
@@Rokvtm It's true! Hallowed...,if anything, should be the hymn of Amnesty International
We have the BLACK FLAG
@@onearthonelegion ...which is punk hard core in the first place.
@@assurdo8888 Don't be nitpicky now, Rollins would twist your neck for that kind of jerkoffery. Np. Arch Enemy - Under Black Flags We March
The British flag? Yeah, maybe, but there's better maiden tunes. No chance a maiden tune could be anything other than a British flag.
For the last two months I am listening to this every morning and my life has improved significantly!
You are getting ready for the gallows pole!! Its a strange illusion.
Its my work break hype song
A direct quote from Wikipedia about this song, "It has been acclaimed as one of the greatest heavy metal songs of all time."
What it should say is, "Best Heavy Metal song -- EVER!!!!!"
No, that distinction goes to War Pigs by Sabbath.
Mark Andersen you clearly should stfu
@@markandersen793 who the fuck is sabbath?
I listen old metal bands like iron maiden,judas priest,megadeth etc.
And i never heard about sabbath but everyone talk much about sabbath
WHO THE FUCK IS SABBATH???!!!
"It has been acclaimed as -one of- the greatest heavy metal songs of all time."
Me and my younger brother. 1985 NBC Arena, Honolulu, Hawaii. We make our way through the crowd near to the front row, people passing out joints like there's no tomorrow, smokin and chokin that good Hawaiian Shit, and Maiden starts playing this song. Best Cover Ever.
Might be the best cover of any song I have ever heard. Rob Flynn is a great guitarist, and Machine Head rule! It can't touch the original version, but no song really can. This is still absolutely beautiful.
I just want to hear Forbidden or Vio-Lence cover it.
I prefer this version, it's heavier than the original.
Cradle of filth did better
Definitely
yes one of, check out Tools cover of Led Zepplins no quarter, amazing, ua-cam.com/video/_ZKIfCJZvZo/v-deo.html
believe it or not I'm a huge Iron Maiden fan, ran across this and decided to take a listen, these guys did a outstanding job, very nice work over all !!!
I don't believe that you're an iron Maiden fan
Same here. Not really an IM fan. This, however, freakin' rocks!
Better than the original
Allmost
ive been a Maiden fan since the late 80s and i would not tolerate a shit cover version of this song! but MachineHead do an excellent job here, really good and very respectful to the original song! \m/
True but this no match to Iron maiden
amritanshu srivastava
your not wrong! the live after death version 1984 long beach arena is a masterpiece never to be matched in my opinion! but still respect to machinehead!
amritanshu srivastava
who is saying tht its matchs?
Talons of the Raven Beast Over Hammersmith: The Best "Hallowed Be Thy Name" version ever.... with a brutal Dickinson.
Cotramjoxxx Live After Death.
Definitely a classic and a die hard cover to say the least. One of the best stories ever told through metal 🤟🔥
Listening to Maiden is like going to history class.
I have I never heard this before. One of my all time favorite maiden songs. These guys killed it. I am impressed as hell. I love how they did this.
rob flynn is really underrated he's so talented and awesome \m/
+patrick cruz he's a metal legend!!!
+patrick cruz Yea hes not underrated at all, he is widely considered a legend world wide lol.
+Michael Scanlan Lmfao. Exactly dude.
Rob absolutely sucks live
yes, here in Argentina they play in small places, he is kinda underrated here, and he is one talented mf. cant wait to see them again. hofully they'll come on 2018. His last show on "an evening with Machine Head" they were fucking amazing
I liked the "thrash-like" vocals on this cover. He does not sing like Bruce, so what? It is actually a good cover ;)
He sing more like matal,while Bruce Sounds more like rock
DamageIncM meetol
Simone Calloni is a good thing , in my opinion, that he does not sing like Bruce....we allready have Bruce to sing like himself :p
Simone Calloni its a cover, so it doesnt need to b the same as original. anyway good cover
qwerty93k It is what I said.
Sitting in my car at a red light...I hear this song blaring out of someone's truck and I immediately know it, but I also know it is not the version I know by Iron Maiden. I silently beg that light not to change to green so I can hear enough to figure out WHO THE HELL IS COVERING THIS SONG. Later that day I get home, this song still on my mind and I google: Cover song Hallowed By Thy Name and THIS COMES UP!!!!!!
tu parle trop !!!!
belle!
trop mimie
en fraçais ?
SITTING IN MY CAR AT A RED LIGHT! I TAKE A LOOK IN MY MIRROR AT THE LAST LIGHT OF A STOP THAT TOOK A LONG TIME FOR ME!
Had no idea machine head covered this, and I have to say. Really good job, gave the song the respect it deserves, put their own twist on the solos but kept them pretty much as close to the originals in doing so. Rob's singing was really good considering how he normally throw his voice out. All in all. Any maiden fan should applaud this cover.
Robb Flynn is a hell of a frontman. And I love how the double bass changes the feel of the song. Awesome cover. Love Maiden and MH. 🤘
Well said
Dave's Drumming for sure takes the song to another level.
This is outstanding the whole time
In a couple of months this song will have been around for 35 years. This song has definitely stood the test of time, something a lot of that cookie cutter, pop music crap can't say. Long live the best Heavy Metal song -- EVER!!!!!
I have to agree. It’s the best. Rhyme of the ancient mariner must be top 5 too.
40 coming up 🤘🤣🤘
40
40 it is!
These guys smashed this cover. One of the best covers of all time hands down!!
Falcao plays the guitar and sings so good omg
Is it actually his name or do you mean he looks like the football player? :D
@@leon-vfonai7931 his name is Rob Flynn
@@leon-vfonai7931 the frontman's name is Robb Flynn.
@@leon-vfonai7931 he looks like Radamel Falcao
r/woooosh
This has got to be one of the top 20 metal songs of all time - underrated song
In your opinion what is #1? Just curious lol
@@andrewdeem5454 That question is one that continuously changes. My mood has alot to do with dictating what my favorite song ever is and I'm a guitar player so I like more than one style of music.
Machine Head own EVERY song they cover! It's a hell of a talent but they always manage to create something that respects the original but is still distinctly their own.
Machine Head is underrated in every way.
It's very rare to find a very good cover of such beautiful masterpiece... but this is amazing!!! 🤟🤟🤟
The most epic metal song ever. Hail 🤟
The most in your face and passionate cover of this song ever made! Definately Machine Head, Definately Iron Maiden, 100% Metal!
4:42 these riffs totally rocks!
Well, what can I say... Can't contain my tears every time I listen to this song, that is my phone ring, too. So listening to it by my favorite band was astonishing, brutal. Can't stop listening
This cover is so clean
This song has been on repeat for about 14 hours straight.... and lets go another round.
Absolutely one of the best covers ever, of one of the best songs ever! Not only did Machine Head pick an incredible and iconic song to cover, but they also covered it in a way that truly made it their own! This is my favourite Maiden song, and that’s saying something, but they absolutely fuckin destroyed it in a good way.
Got to be one of the best covers of all time... incredible.
I think it takes quite some guts to cover this song, because it has such importance in the history of metal music...Machine Head, in my opinion you have done a great job
I never thought I’d find a good cover of Hallowed Be Thy Name. Cradle of Filth’s cover is filth. This is the best one by far.
cradle of filth sucks ass
@@mmdreza4155 I feel obliged to disagree with you as my profile pic is me and Dani Filth ;-)
It’s not filth just filthy 😋 each to they’re own of course but I liked how cof made it they’re own, that being said I’m loving this version this guys voice is amazing (never followed machine head probably shouldn’t have started with a cover but all things considered I’m impressed)
CoF fucked this song up soooo bad. I will NEVER understand why weebs love CoF so much... Their music for the most part sucks, I admit even I liked a song or two of theirs, but Danny's voice annoys the piss out of me, and they had no business touching this song with a 50 ft. Pole. Their version was worse than filth, it was an overflowing dumpster fire.... CoF weebs will always "claim" it is epic though.....I don't get it either.
Definitely
I have been a Maiden fan since the start and this track has always been my favorite.
This version is actually rather good...!!
Yea same. I'm a die hard Maiden fan and this is great
I really wish Machine Head would get the credit they are deserved. They are fantastic live. I have seen them 5 times and every time they killed it. 🤘🤘🤘
I don’t care what you say. This is the best metal cover of all time.
YES definitely
The best MH’s cover, ever!
What a remake!KINGS!!
Still one of the Best Covers made by Man...
Guys, helped me be who I am today
Came here for a cover and got a masterpiece!
hab den Song gerade das erste Mal gehört. Unglaublich!!! Wow, was für ein Hammerlied.
Best cover ever
One of the very best covers of a Maiden song EVER!!! 🤘🎸🍻🇬🇧
YES definitely
Better than the original. Killer song
Still can't believe it's Robb's voice, he really excelled on this one
lol the one guy in the crowd singing "hallowed be MY name"
I’ve never listened to Machine Head before and was a bit dubious about them covering this but actually wow! They’ve slowed it down and made it their own in a way. Impressed!
Love the" Where Eagles Dare" drum fill at the end!!!
Personaly, Machine Head and Iced Earth have the two best covers of this song!
Thanks brother for mentioning Iced Earth!!!! Matt Barlow rules!!
I just love the voice of Robb! ❤
Best iron maiden cover song ever !!!!!!!!!!
Great cover of one of the most amazing songs in the history of humanity! ❤
Sounds like a tune Iron Maiden would rock. Awesome!
lol dude
I will act like I never read that :O
hahaha xD
did you really just take the time to type that?
psh.. sounds nothing like a song iron maiden would rock.. they arent talented enough to come up with a song like this.
Thought i would never find a good cover of this song
Thought I'd never find a good Maiden cover, period.
+Peter Wiseman if you notice with Iron Maiden covers, most bands only cover the deep cuts, not like run to the hills or the trooper
Check COF version
+Robo Cock heard it, no good
MrCapone1996 voclas are a bit shit but the rest is mint
IRON MAIDEN OWNS THIS 🎸
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.
When the priest comes to read me the last rites,
I 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.
Somebody please tell me that I'm dreaming,
It's not easy to stop from screaming,
But words escape me when I try to speak.
Tears fall but why am I crying,
After all I'm not afraid of dying.
Don't I believe that there never is an end.
As the guards march me out to the courtyard,
Somebody cries from a cell "God be with you".
If there's a God then why has he let me go?
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.
Mark my words believe my soul lives on.
Don't worry now that I have gone.
I've gone beyond to see 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
Yeah yeah yeahh. Hallowed be thy name.
Yeah yeah yeahh. Hallowed be thy name.
Yeeeeeahh!
One of the Best cover songs I've ever heard.
And that's coming from die hard Maiden fan.
I had to edit it the drumming is epic
Goddammit the more I listen to this the more I believe this could be the best metal cover EVER!!!!
Have you heard Jorn's cover of Don't talk to Strangers?
Damn!!!!!!!! Sounds better then the original. 🤘
Machine Head's covers are god tier.
One of the very best covers of an legendary song that few could do justice to. I saw Iron Maiden four times between 1983-1986 and they were at their incredible best! Bruce Dickinson was the master of the vocals and stage presence and Steve Harris IS one of the greatest bass players (nod Geddy Lee) and lyricists (nod Neal Peart) in history! Epic job MH
This is my preferred music of heavy metal. I listen any version of it, some of them good, some of them bad. If I can listen to myself singing it, I can hear any cover. But this one is very good.
Machine Head was amazing for a hot minute
paying homage to the best band in the world ! respect
As much as i love the original this is the first time ever ive loved a cover more than the original 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻 goosebumps everytime !!
Listen to Diamond Heads cover of Metallicas No Remorse. So much better its an embarrassment to the original
Considering that the original was written and performed in the previous century (LOL), this is an INCREDIBLE revision. Love the vocal pallette used and the overall performance. AWESOME stuff (and ive been a maiden fan since i was 12 years old, over 40 years). Love this!!!!
Robb's take on Bruce Dickinsons vocal style is actually really good, props to him
The Voice of Rob ist working so Well in this one , love this for Sure ❤
I listen to this over and over, Rob is somewhat mesmerizing... what a powerful voice... really metal, he is beyond greatness.
The other guitarist reminds me of Zykke Wylde, really muscley arms.
Incredible band \m/
This is actually a really good cover. It has the aspects from Iron Maiden, with a modern more heavy touch. Perfect for what Machine Head was going for.
3:37-3:54 breathtaking
"as I walk my life drifts before me though the end is near I'm not sorry catch my soul coz it's trying to fly away!" is so oooo good in this version. True machine head style
...Goosebumps
As an old school metalhead, this is my favorite Iron Maiden tune...and they paid fantastic homage to it with this cover. Their version of Metallica's 'Creeping Terror' is amazing as well.
The circle Is closed Now From The Old heros Too The newwayOf Metal BandsFantasticCover!!!
and they still, I'm much more confident, believed in myself and loved. Noble Price wishes them for all
Heard my friends talk about this band a lot, never gave them a shot. Now I must. Good job guys, awesome cover!
my god its so powerful and chilling in one
Holy shit...I'm Irons through and through...well done and spot on respect 🤘🇦🇺🤘🇦🇺🤘🇦🇺
'If it ain't broke, don't fix it.' Outstanding cover and true to the original. Show's just how great Maiden's songwriting was. Timeless!
Love how it starts very close to the original but slowly turns in a true Machine Head version
Best song of heavy metal ever. Difficult to equalize
Who the hell would dislike this???
This is art
OK being a HUGE Iron Maiden fan ... I went into this with some doubts, but with an open mind..... OMG! THIS WAS AN AWESOME COVER!!!
I remember seeing Machine Head back in the mid '90s with Slayer.
I am a Maiden freak love the way they made it there own not trying to be Bruce awesome
This is why Machine Head is one of my all time favorite metal bands...they make great fire on their own but still treat the classics with such respect! 🤘♥️🤘
Guys you should reupload this video in order to get more views
go back to raider those Christians fucks
omfg!!
RIP you
Yeah, 360p really sucks in 2020.
I completely respect the original but this cover is the bomb! Its heavy layers that Machine Head is know for brings this song to a new level. Its bone chilling
Rob Flynn bleeds molten metal! I love this man so much!
I don’t remember what year this cover came out, but I do remember being skeptical & remember being blown away by the respect Machine Head had for this song. They totally did their own thing but completely did the song justice 100%! Great job fellas!
it is as perfect as the original masterpiece of iron maiden...
YES definitely 💯❤🤘🤘❤
Fab cover and deserves the recognition as such. I do not understand why anyone has to make the UK / USA comparison. I am from the UK and naturally find offence to people criticising music or anything that comes from my home country. However I also appreciate and understand that the USA are our friends and would not say a bad word against them. Music or anything else that comes to mind. The fact is, an awesome American band decided to do a Legendary English band cover. This shows the respect they have for each other and tradition for the past. No matter how you spin it, the best bands today regardless of what nation they come from, will always refer to the greats....Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath etc... Metallica for example are huge fans of DP. How many bands have they influenced over the years? How many interviews have we seen or read about the influence of Ritchie Blackmore, Jimmy Page, (The old greats) to many new musicians today.
Machine Head are an Awesome, awesome band and I love their music. This is a fantastic cover of one of my favourite Maiden songs. So lets stick together in this subject....I would rather listen to a shit cover (although this is not one of them) from a metal band, than listen to anything that is artificial and fake in the other music genres that plague our ears....many spring to mind.....
Regardless of country, bands and musicians will refer to the classics. Hence why we are all on this page to check out a Heavy band covering a classic
Mark my words , best songe ever
Child in time
From a zealot fan , hallowed be thy name , the song is one of their best and hardest and maybe slowing it's pace was their clever mark , doing it this well makes these guys a fuckin royal quality , this is good actually .
