Please check out "The loneliness of the long distance runner." Phenomenal song and the vocals are just deep soul stressed. Amazing
yes he flies the tour jet but insurance company says must have a company pilot on board
I'm Glad you've been introduced to the gospel of Bruce....
Honestly if you enjoyed this listen to the original recordings.... it's enlightening.
Also, SEE THEM LIVE! Seriously that experience is life defining!
Hallowed be thy name pretty much speaks for itself. Also strange cricket noises?
Nevermind about the cricket, you explained at the end.
Go little metal cricket, go go my metal friend, may you find a metal gf :)
The worst part about listening to Iron Maiden for the first time ever is that you can never listen to Iron Maiden for the first time ever again.
Especially if it's Hallowed Be Thy Name or Fear of the Dark.
ooo... that's very deep
@@shrineofbeats6447 ...That’s what she said...
@@Blackinterceptor999 😂
@@rickwaters3592 At least one person appreciates fine humor ;) haha
Remember this is a guy who BEAT throat cancer and STILL sings like this!! Massive respect
Man, I'd almost forgotten about that! Brought me back to some tearful times when I heard that news, because I thought we'd lost him, or even if he survived it his voice would be screwed. So thankful! 💙
Iron maiden has been shunned by like every radio station they are better than most AAA rock bands and outsell them but for some reason the music industry hates them.
@@frking100 Music industry loves them because they make money out of their touring, but radio hates them, can't have Mrs Smith from a village in the Cotswolds choking on her iced bun if Iron Maiden suddenly appeared on Radio 2. Even Planet Rock doesn't play them enough, but they're still happy to play country rock ten times a day. Absolute legendary band who should all have Knighthoods (most are Brits).
They're still great but vocally the best version I've seen Bruce do of this is the Live after Death version, sustaining those lines with ridiculous power. He's up there amongst the very greatest vocalists ever, probably the very best because he was able to maintain his voice for so many decades
Yes,awesome Devil Island Media
You wouldnt believe how much fun you would have at an Iron Maiden concert. They blow everyone away every single time. They're legendary
Loudest concert I've attended.
Saw them in Winnipeg on their “Legacy of the Beast” tour! Unbelievable how great they were!
Almost 40 years ago I was about 4-5 rows from the front in the 'no room for toothpicks' section, just moving with the crowd as you have no choice......they just finished a tune and I watched this drumstick come towards me in slo-mo. Ten hands went up and it fell down at my feet. I dropped to my knees shoving others away and ended up victorious!.......................................only for my mother to toss it in the garbage about 4 years later. Yeah. That was one of the things that figured into my non-relationship with her but that's another story no one asked for.
The first concert I ever went to was the Book Of Souls Tour at Madison Square Garden. I've been to a dozen concerts since, and aside from Dragonforce, Iron Maiden was the best concert I've been to yet.
Everyone, even non metal fans should see them live. So much fun and always a great crowd.
Maiden is truly Metal Opera. They are truly one of the greatest bands of all time
they rescued rock by melding Sabath-ish metal with hard punk, only place to go after VINYL 1 & 2, operatic over the top stage show, saw them in 85, only 2,000 in 8000 capacity rink-arena. As a unit they dropped MAYBE 3 notes for the whole show. they were like friggin perfect musically. despite low turnout they gave it all.
And so underrated
They are in my opinion the true metal Rock. Noone to this day comes close to them.
Amen!
“Ooo, that was a really cool transition.” Welcome to every Iron Maiden song! 😀
LOL Pretty much!
YES
Right. I think you could transfer the lyrics to any of their songs and it would work. I'm not faulting them, however. D@mn albatross!
Wait till she finds out what not to do when a bird shits on you (hopefully the Live After Death version)
Just don't be rude and call her "Charlotte"!
Man you gotta love Maiden. No drug or sex scandals, no destroyed hotel rooms or public falling outs. Just pure musical talent and fun since forever.
Pretty sure there was some probably some original scandals when Paul was singing
@@zacnicholson5976 Paul used drug and Steve despised it.
@@flannel306
Adrian, Davey, and Nicko probably partied pretty hard back in the '80s. Bruce and Steve have only ever been drinkers, although Bruce did smoke some weed in the '80s to relax after shows.
@@flannel306 Also known as "no scandals" ;)
And they had a falling out when Bruce first left Steve said Bruce would make a country album if he knew it would sell
I think it also needs to he mentioned that this song is the end of night finale, so he has been belting them out for 2 hours by this point!
Good Memory! I was just going to mention that (but I'm VERY late to the party too).
I was THERE!!!! Awesome concert, just amazing!
That's right
Yes
Listen to the intro in the studio version. Bruce's carrying of the word "low". It just goes on and on and on, totally amazing! Give me chills every time!
or Beast Over Hammersmith where he does it live!
Or on LIVE AFTER DEATH!
@@cjbrett89 aye Hammersmith as a whole shits all over Live After Death
When you're 30 years past your prime and still make opera singers say "wow".
Agree - he can still bring it now - and this is 10 more years after this video clip. Sure, he cuts out a 1-2 of the screams (Children of the Damned) per show, but other than that he can still sing songs they did 30 years ago without having to slow them down or have electronic help. He is still better than 95% of the vocalists out there.
Let's be precise: there was a "wow, wow", too. :)
When you go through cancer, and come out the other side.......but no he hasn't lost it.
He may not be the same belter he was in his youth, but I'd say he's actually a *better* singer now. He adds so much nuance to an already absolutely shredding song and takes advantage of his incredible range in the lows as well. Like his "strange illusion" in this is on another level. The dude stays in shape, trains his vocals, and has honed his craft. Mad respect.
Yes. He and Halford could make an opera singer blush.
She makes me feel like: "dude you have been listening the right music your whole life..."
'cause you have
Agreed, because you have. This girl needs to see old Maiden
Me too!!! After 40 years of hearing "that music doesn't require any talent" from parents and family, it's wonderful to see Elizabeth's reactions and hear her analysis as a professional!
face it... there is not much tone quality or actual singing melody to rap or modern pop. there wouldn't be any if it weren't for auto tune ... we never had or needed auto tune ;)
YES! Why do I feel so validated by her somehow it feels great
The truly amazing thing about Bruce's power, range and enthusiasm in this live video is that they did this as the finale to a whole headlining set - which means he's _already been singing for _*_a whole set_* before he gets to this point. I honestly believe that the reason for those long guitar solos in the middle is so he has time to stick his head in an oxygen tent backstage, plug into an intravenous drip of Red Bull and switch out a couple of spare lungs and a new set of vocal cords before going back out.
or a very refreshing Cola 😁
No Red Bull or anything like that, just water. When he disappears during the guitar solos, he downs a bottle of water. Saw this when they were in Tampa, FL. years ago.
Doesn't matter where they are playing or what he actually says - I always hear "Scream for me Long Beach!" The 80's were an amazing musical decade. UP THE IRONS! I absolutely love watching your reaction to high quality metal.
Yes! I was there, Long Beach, for two shows as they recorded their double album and that great live show video! 80's metal was the scene!!!
I hear that too. Lol
Same here. 😅
I was at that concert!
Yes, yes and yes!
My Live After Death cassette started with Winston Churchill onto Aces High: WE WILL NEVER SURRENDER!!!
Bruce Dickinson is a licensed pilot, olympic-level fencer, has a doctorate of music, rescues endangered turtles, is a screenwriter AND a radio DJ.
and published novelist.
Isnt he a bartender or something like that aswell?
And he collects WW2 tanks
He needs a hobby xD
He also owns a Fokker DR1 triplane replica which he had a mock dogfight over Sonisphere in 2014
In truth, in Bruce's earlier days, he could hold those notes out even longer. He's been called the human air raid siren more than once!
That's why founder, Steve Harris hired him after Paul D'anno was forced to leave the band.
I think Elizabeth need to analyzed this song when Bruce was younger in 1982's version.
@@MrTech226 I prefer the Rock in Rio III version, that note he holds at the end is just mesmerizing!!
Up the irons!!
lml
I'm really surprised at how well his voice has held up. Very few metal singers can hold that quality for the duration he has.
@@llulisesll he holds it for 26 seconds. Unbelievable
Couldn't have picked a better maiden song to start with. Bruces voice gives me goosebumps everytime I hear this song. EVERY. TIME.
They have so much energy because they are the only rock band that isn't drunk and on drugs:) Bruce is also a commercial pilot and has participated in the olympics and won two silver medals in the world championships in fencing. A true professional in everything he does.
What about 'system of a Down?'
composers, think of them that way. Even the 1 & only greatest, Rory Gallagher covered moonchild. on da tube somewhere.
Did anyone else grin like a loon when she said "I haven't listened to this" and just think "She is in for a treat"
Ummmmm, yuuuup!!!
Hell yea, She should have heard him back in the day.
My immediate thought was: she's gonna have to pause and have a talk after that "running looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow" line. Then she does it after the *first* one and it's gonna be even better because he's gonna do it *again*.
To coin Bruce......YEAH-E-YEAH-E-YEAH!!!
I thought she lived under some kind of stone.
I love watching people listening to Iron Maiden for the first time. They way their jaws drop is adorable.
Agreed! It reminds me of the first time I heard them, it’s like going back to my childhood!!
Reminds me of my first time hearing them. It was wasted years, when I was 10, and could only ask “who the fuck is that singing”
Yes... I love it. She needs to check out queensrych and singer Geoff tate. It will blow her away
I know my dropped [edited to add:] dropped[/edit] when I first heard Maiden, in a catechism class in 1983.
@@louofm1 Absolutely. Suite Sister Mary when he sings with Pamela Moore. Frickin phenomenonal. Dark but amazing. The whole Operation Mindcrime album was(is) dark and amazing. Just as applicable today as it was when they wrote it.
I still hope Elizabeth would listen this song performed at Hammersmith year 1982. That version is sublime and perfect in all ways. And you would go nuts with that ending ”…naaaameeeee”, it gets me still every time. Amazing. I need you to hear that, Elizabeth.
100% agree. Its my favourite live performance and his voice had kind of different skills and qualities
Yes please
It really amazes me how can Bruce sing out of his mind while he runs through the stage for 2 hours non stop at age 60. He's just a beast and my favorite metal singer
Fun fact: During the show, the whole building, stage, and music gear are powered by Bruce Dickinson running everywhere and jumping up and down.
"fun and true
xD
We oughta dub hee, ‘The Hamster of heavy metal!’ 😆
😭😭👍🤟🤟 THIS COMMENT WINS THE INTERNET!!!
This isn't where metal began. That would be Black Sabbath. But Maiden absolutely took it to a completely different level
Hey thanks everyone for the thumbs up!
Bruce is quite the renaissance man; he is a pilot who flies 737's, 757's and 747's. He also has a couple of other planes, including a German Fokker Dr1 Triplane. He is a world class fencer, winning many competitions, and early on, scheduling tour dates around competitions. He owns Cardiff Aviation, a heavy maintenance facility in England. He is an author, writing many books, and he also is a radio and TV personality. He did acting in school as a kid, and that lends a lot into this stage show. He also helped create Trooper beer.
And when he has some free time, he is the lead singer for one of the greatest metal bands ever.
At one time he was a professor of history I don't know what college?
He flew a dc 3 and an Electra on ice pilots, and I saw him on a British train documentary, he's quite the train expert as well
Bruce Dickinson is the man, his voice is phenomenal hence his nickname " The Air Raid Siren " :D :D
He's also a cancer survivor
That is so sick
Best live band in history ...hands down
Kagagoogoo enters the chat .
The best part of any Maiden performance is the silent,yet awesome backup vocals of bassist Steve Harris. . He sings every word without being mic'd . It's the best
Cuz he wrote them
@@futurenoww9899 no shit. Thanks for that unknown tidbit. .lol ...
@@nunya9068I didn’t know that:)
Steve really is the driving force behind Maiden, in every way. He is incredible - much like Malcolm Young. Both really set the tone for their bands and drive the music on stage.
"Nicko, how many toms do you want on your kit?"
"Yes"
#winning
And how many are you going to really play ?
**Confused face**
Um......... YES !!!!!
check terry bozzio, he made drums a melodic instrument
@@mkall
T. B. Is a monster 🤘🤘
@@jonny555ive - Tommy Lee was watching Nicko play from sidestage in the '80's, flabbergasted he said 'a lot of other drummers have these huge kits too, but Nicko uses ALL of it, he's like an Octopus!'
I wish that lady would go back in time and explain to my parents that my heavy metal music was actually fine art.
I warn you now, that has surreal effects. I shared one of these with my 67yr old Mum a few months back. Walked in on her listening to one of my old heavy metal playlists. I thought someone had slipped me LSD for about 10 seconds while my mind tried to process it
@@andrewmoss3681 lol, I accidentally made my mom into a musical weeaboo that way. I had shown her X Japan's Endless Rain and now she has more merch of tbem than me
Yep, great musicians and great singers, but they called it noise and just head banger music.
My mum was a music teacher, and commented on the key changes and timing changes on 'Powerslave', but followed that with , BUT STILL TURN IT DOWN!! 🤣
LOL. A few years ago I showed my Mom a Within Temptation concert DVD - she was about 80 yo at the time - and she absolutely freaking loved it. Even "The Other Half of Me" which was the one song I thought she'd hate because of the death metal growls. Sometimes our parents are just cooler than we think they are.
Two amazing rock singers in my life are Bruce Dickinson and Geoff Tate. The range these gentlemen have is mind blowing.
I know this is 2 years old but Iron Maiden is one of the most successful acts to have little to no radio air time and selling out stadiums for over 40 years
You're hearing him a bit past his prime, and after throat cancer, and he's still terrific. He held that "low" twice as long back in the day.
This is 7 years before the throat cancer. Somewhere back in time tour 2008
The live after death version is just about perfect in my opinion
Yeah, this was way before his throat cancer diagnosis. Check out their cd Night of the dead, they play Hallowed be thy name, with Bruce post cancer treatment. He still belts, but it’s more of a screech now. A hoarse voice. It’s still bloody fantastic mind you, it’s just not at the same calibre it used to be.
@@khufsa2048 Seen them in 85 then again in 17 Bruce is still incredible
@@chamisi i agree:) seen Maiden 12 times since 2005. They always deliver! Bruce is a powerhouse
Elizabeth looks like a kid entering the gates of Disney World for the first time...magical awe!!!
I little offended at first. Who raised that girl??
Right?!?!!
Yes! Yes! Yes!
You nailed it! What a fabulous synopsis of her emotional sincerity!!
It was interesting watching a new Maiden fan being born, live and in real time.
My husband’s favorite band so needless to say I’ve seen them live 3x. We took our son to see him on the 2018 tour, the shows are magnificent!
Bruce Dickinson has had a wonderful life:
He’s a pilot and flies the Iron Maiden plane
He’s a great fencer (competed internationally)
He owns a brewing company.
He hosted a radio show between 2002 & 2010
He’s authored novels and written film scripts
And on top of all that, he still finds time to be the lead singer of Iron Maiden
Don't forget he beat cancer too!
He also owns a nuclear missile- its on display at the Imperial War Museum Duxford
He´s a PhD in Music.
He also piloted the first and only Flying Motel on an airplane (good times eh Bruce?)
He's captain at 601 Squad. in RAF London.
He was the main contributor for his Fanclubs around the world including funding with materials as toner and paper for printing the Bruce Dickinson Brazillian Fan Club for a while, during solo career.
He's responsible for recovering literature materials doing research for inumerous songs of Maiden (that was the reason of the many PhDs - it was "Doctor Honoris Causa")
He´s Investor in many new tech fronts and active member of Campus Party.
We can keep going on ethernally here, folks.
Bruce ain´t got a lot of energy. He´s MADE off pure energy.
Isnt he also a professor at a uni ? Or am I confusing him with someone else
He also collects tanks from ww2 I think
That energy is why Iron Maiden is stil, after 46 years, the BEST show experience for a metal band.
they are concert monsters... its a whole experienced hearing them live
So true... I saw them at Hellfest in France. I expected nothing from them considering how old they are it turned out they were the most impressive band I saw over the 3 days.
PRIEST, Matalica AND SABBATH WILL GIVE A GOOD RUN FOR $$$$
@@mikeparmley4298 not even close
I’ve been into Maiden from the beginning to Powerslave (yeah, it’s been a while). I remember them taking their roles seriously, not being plagued by alcohol or drug abused. They were in great shape. (Unfortunately, Clive Burr wasn’t so lucky. RIP)
Yeah, that was coming; Bruce is a legitimate _godly_ vocalist. His voice is utterly unreal. On top of that, Iron Maiden on the whole are masters of crafting melodies so good they carry entire songs and stick in your brain for years
I love watching this analysis.. its so cool reliving the first time someone hears Maiden for the first time.
Would love some more from them please!! Run to the hills is one of my faves.
He survived throat cancer that 80% his capacity he's still better than 90% of the artists out there today.
Agree👍👍👍🤘🤘🤘
He is a living legend 🥰🥰🥰🥰
@@tonnymahardika5325 Number five in the 2000 Olympics!!! Fencing. 😊 ❤️
Legitimately one of the most interesting and inspirational people alive in the world today. Bruce Dickinson is the embodiment of: "You can be whatever you set your mind to".
@@MAXsenna00 Pretty sure that's a myth. There were only 3 fencers representing the UK in the 2000 Olympics, James Williams, James Beevers and Eloise Smith - none of whom made it past the Round of 16.
"It's very difficult to enunciate when you're high."
True that, man.
we have all been there :P
I just said "phrasing" when I heard it
HAHAHAHA the things that spew from my mouth...
@@TheCharismaticVoice You're not helping things now. PHRASING!
@@TheCharismaticVoice Bruce Dickinson has performed with Arjen Lucassen's Ayreon, a song called Into the Black Hole from the Universal Migrator album. He's really showcasing his range there, Arjen is getting the best out of him.
Also, please please please do a reaction video on a couple of Bent Knee songs, "Catch Light(live at Big Nice Studios)" and "Sunshine(Live at Hand Forged Works)". Lead singer Courtney Swain is amazing and they deserve a bigger audience.
Loved your feedback, really ON POINT! As an operatic tenor and Maiden fan for life, I can say your insight is very well informed and accurately described, BRAVA!
This video never gets old. I love seeing the pure joy, amazement, and delight on her face experiencing Maiden for the first time. And seeing just how much fun these guys are having on stage, how can you not love Iron Maiden? 🤟😁
Metal - the genre that no one gives credit to.
Metal fans - we'll pack 100,000 people into any venue.
🤘 up the irons
Also, one of the few genres that go beyond surface level attraction and will address hard ideas and philosophies.
@@erichipp1177 oh and purple haze says something?
More positive vibes at a metal concert than any other genre.
Girl, boy, gay, straight, black or white, all are welcome.
The awful truth \m/
“I could not stop him.” Yeah, that sounds about right when talking about Bruce.
No one in good conscience stops Bruce. #TheTrueBruceAlmighty
Not even the deadiets could stop Bruce. #longlivetheking
Phrasing
I’m a HUGE Iron Maiden fan, and a huge fan of yours too. He has that operatic metal voice, and I think he and Ann Wilson are the best voices in rock, maybe all music! Thank you.
Just saw Iron Maiden live last Friday. Was remembering some points of your analysis while watching Bruce sing. My son is the fan, not me, but your video was great for me to watch ahead of time to really gain some appreciation for the singing and after that concert, I’m definitely a fan, too. It was amazing.
The Rock in Rio concert he held that last note pure for 27 seconds, welcome to the world of Maiden.
This is the old Bruce, imagine if she hears the young bruce
Exactly, lol!
exactly what i was thinking the entire time
Old Bruce still has it tho.
@@TheOnefalcon07 He certainly does, but everyone should hear it both ways. Many times.
@@wiseman5076 couldnt agree more. I have never had the chance to see maiden in concert, but that one of my ultimate goals
Bruce never lets up during a concert. The man is amazing!
I've never been reduced down into a bawling wreck from a first listening to a song (outside of anything produced by the Really Useful Group) as with this one! I've lost my elderly parents over the past two years due to cancer and cardiovascular disease and I've been dealing with deep latent grief. This song helped to release me. Thank you for this review. As I can see by the date stamp, this video was posted two days before my father made his last Thanksgiving dinner for us. Thank you again. My emotional rag has been wrung-out.
As a Maiden fan since the early 1980’s I just loved this. When you see someone breathlessly reacting to something that you have loved all your life is like big high five. Really love the analysis.
In my opinion, Paul Di"Anno was just as good a singer as Bruce
I'm amazed that these old farts that are 40 years into their career are still as sharp as when they were in their 20s. They don't tour on nostalgia and phone in the performance like some others. The fans at the concert demonstrates that they are still bringing in new fans with their skill and energy.
@@loquayrocks Not quite as good, not had quite the range as Bruce.
Had to come back and listen to this one again and read some of the new comments. I agree with you... it's kind of like watching your kids really get into something you enjoyed at their age.
Same here! I saw The Beast on the Road tour in '82. Dare I say this reaction brought a tear to my eye.
"Oooh .... ooooh... That was a really cool transition." Welcome to Iron Maiden
Exactly 😂😂
Yup. I think she gets it. Welcome to her indeed. She seemed genuinely impressed and rightly so. Maiden is truly a World band. There's a reason that's true, and metal deserves to be taken seriously as an artform.
Pretty sure this was the closing song of the tour....
80's metal bands were just completely untouchable musically.
There is no going back now !
A great Iron Maiden song that is derived from from Poet Samuel Tayler Coleridge titled "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner." Bruce's vocal range is incredible and the music will literally take you on a journey through time. I would love to hear your analysis on this particular song.
Alexander the Great to finish off somewhere in time
Really enjoyed this!! My favorite band, and one of my favorite songs from them. Love your analysis, from someone who has never heard if the great Bruce Dickenson. Well done!
And that is the OLDER (age) version of Bruce. React to his younger days vocals. UNTOUCHABLE
Yeah, this is good but the studio version or a live version from earlier in his career really shows what Bruce could do.
Older Bruce is more polished and better. Sure he's sounded older the past few years but I put the early 2000s to mid as his prime
I see a lot of reaction videos to this song, but would love a comparison video from mid 80s and now, by a vocal expert. Bruce has evolved but his earlier range and power was so raw.
I think the same, bro...
I was just thinking this myself. This dude has been around for ages and still can rock with the best. Imagine if she heard Rime of Ancient Mariner!
You must keep in mind that Bruce is 62 , he won a cancer battle and he is from another world. One of the best singers of all time is also Pilot, writer, fencer, director, radio Hoster and Front man of Iron Maiden. The best band ever!! More than 43 Years running through the world.
Fencer is my favourite Bruce Dickinson skill tbh. I have worked with pilots, have heard singers... fencers, however! :D
I believe he also holds a degree in astrology and is opera trained...
The guy is a force of nature! Bruce is magnificent incredible range. Been a Maiden fan from the start and the energy from them decades later is incredible. No other bands out there can match this dedication and loyalty and have a bond with their fans. Amazing!
@@timrubio6592 If I remember correctly, I don't think he was classically trained, I think he mentioned it in an interview with Loudwire, I might be wrong tho
He's that age now, yes. At the time of this recording, he was a youngster at 49 😃
Maiden is such a legendary band, their shows are insane and I’ve seen many. Your video and interpretation of this sing is also amazing. You were so observant of the details that make this song one of their best!! Keep doing your videos, this was great!! Thank you!
I've seen Iron Maiden 3x in the 1980's. I read an article in Circus magazine back in the day and they ask bands "what do you listen to on the bus"?Maiden replied classical, for note structure and configuration. At one time Bruce Dickinson was a world class fencer.
"Where is all this energy coming from?"
Metal baby, metal..
hell yeah
I'm a metal head for nigh on 40 years. Speed metal, thrash metal, death metal... you name it, I'm into it. Metal doesn't mean you can hold a note like Bruce. The man is on a completely different level. There are legit world class opera singers who can't touch him.
🤘
The crowd.
And by the way: In the studio version of that song he holds the first "running looooooooowwww" for 13 seconds, only to immediately restart for another 9 Seconds including a change in tone and shifting from "Low" to "yeah"
And I think we all tried to thing along and practiced until we were abe to join Bruce on the "low"s til their end...
Guilty as charged
Yup... Hallowed Be Thy Name and Don't Cry are My all time practice songs since I was a kid. :)
Kinda surprised she's not using the studio version 🤷♀️
@@kaleygoode1681 Few reactors do, especially vocal coaches who want to hear the raw, live version of the singers' voice.
@@alexandrupatru2892 There’s an 80’s live version on youtube too. She should’ve used that one-he was in his prime and amazing
U r hands down the BEST analysis of vocals and reactions I've ever seen.
Went to watch them in 2018 and they were AMAZING!!!!!! The best concert I've been to EVER!!! The energy was off the rail, the atmosphere unbelievable! They truly are one of a kind. True stage animals and incredible artists. Up the irons!!!!!!
To think that he had throat cancer in 2014 and still recorded a whole album, then recovered and continued to produce more with the rest of Iron Maiden is incredible. Bruce is a TROOPER
(hehe get the reference?)
saw him live yesterday, he motherfucking KILLED it still shook, sang flight of icarus too!!
i see what ya did there lol
Ten out of ten pun
The 80s version is wonderful and the amount of time he holds the note is amazing. You have to listen to that version too.
i second that. And have a good listen to clive's drums. ua-cam.com/video/7vP2hFFV57E/v-deo.html
yeah, the 80's version is even more impressiv
I believe she is the first voice coach on UA-cam who didn't react to the original 80's version but I could be mistaken. If she's this impressed with this version id love to see her react to the original 80's version
Yes, the version on Live After Death is the best.
I'll totally check it out!
i have been an Iron Maiden fan since i was 14. Im 57 now and still love them. They are so underratedd.Thank you for the open minded thoughts and critque of them.
Really enjoying what I've seen on your channel so far
“Bruce is conducting the audience”. Welcome to one of the best showmen ever! 🤟🏼
Best showman since Freddie mercury
The answer of: Why they have so much energy: They are Iron Maiden.
Up the irons
Steve Harris doesn’t need God.. God needs Steve! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🙋🏼♀️😝😝🆙 the Irons!
They didn't always have such energy / stage presence......I saw them at the Long Beach Arena in California in the very early 80's on a triple British header featuring Fastway (remember them?) Saxon and yes... Iron Maiden. I was only there for Maiden, but there was no fancy themed stage in those days and they basically stood on stage and played their stuff. Saxon BLEW them away that night!! Times change though....and the Irons rule the stage!!
@@sychambers5440 .. yeah true. Even in Belgium!
What was the real reason? Well their drummer was very sick during the early eighties and Steve and Bruce were so concerned about him coz the number of ... had blown everybody away and Maiden was underperforming!
It wasn’t until their life album recorded in Rio (I think) that their performance was pure dynamite 🧨! True. Greetings 🙋🏼♀️🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻ps: I wasn’t born yet but I saw them on Rock am Ring when I was 13 in 2003 and o man they were dynamite!
Fueled by the metal \m/
This is probably their best song
There's so much emotion, it nearly brings me to tears sometimes.
I flew with Bruce all the way from Egypt it was lovely meeting him after the flight especially as I has seen him in concert a year previously, love Maiden ❤️
If you think that was impressive, imagine a full two plus hours of that energy level! Maiden shows are hands down the best I've ever seen!
1 : 45 mate. every show is one hour and fourty five minutes to the dot, excluding the "doctor doctor" intro and "always look" outro.
Agreed, saw them in 2016 in Sydney and they're true entertainers! Absolutely amazing!
My husband talks about the time he watched them live at Irvine back in 2014 I think? He said Bruce was running all over the stage for two hours, changing wardrobes, running back out... that kind of energy at that age after so many decades of performing?! It's inspiring!
I've been to a lot of concerts before, but Iron Maiden was my first metal show...1984, Piece of Mind... Been a metalhead ever since, '80s metal chick all the way. My favorite band ever, all I wear are Iron Maiden t-shirts. \m/ >.< \m/
Mr Dickinson is a commercial air pilot ❤️❤️❤️❤️
She's thrilled by him this late in his career, she should listen to songs like wasted years, or the album version of this song
She should had listen to Live After Death's version!
Yeah. I saw them on somewhere in time tour. He's lost a little bit, but still one of the best out there.
Yeah he had even better voice back then.
@@phmig 10000000% YES YES YES!!!!!
Yeah, I would not have gone with the live version
Wow thank you for your great analysis! I was there in the crowd during this Toronto show, i will never forget that magic moment! Maiden forever!
OMG i cannot believe it just found you reviewing this lol
This is my favorite song from them lol
I TRULY feel sorry for everyone who has never been to a Maiden concert.
I been twice. Only one word can describe their live shows; amazing! Up the Irons 👊
They came to my country three times and I missed all three, because I lived in a different city further away, was still in school, so my parents didn't let me go any of those times. I wish to see them at some point in the hopefully near future.
They are in the same category as Rush was for me and my buddies, if they're coming to town we're going without question.
Watched them in Virgian in 104* summer heat and they still killed the set.
Man I wish!!! So sad I haven’t
"Hey, listen to this cool guitar melody." - Iron Maiden in a nutshell.
Great video, the way you present the whole theme is deeply moving. Congratulations!!
I would love to see your take on the version of this song from the Rock in Rio live 2001 album. The note Bruce holds at the end is absolutely insane!
yeah that is epic!!!
Also the Best over Hammersmith live, for me the best Halllowed Be Thy Name version ever, he's spectacular in that whole concert
yeah this is not the version I would have suggested - he used to hold that note till I passed out lol :)
Long Beach Live after Death is the tape I wore out :)
@@madboydaz Agreed. That's the one for me. Long Beach.
I think she just had her first metal "Eargasm". Her facial expressions said it all.
Yeah, she’s gushing! 🤘🏼😝
Totally lol!
That is totally why I'm watching this.
69 The number of the beast?
totally agreed, shes in enjoining.........dt
This isn't just heavy metal. This is fucking art. The lyrics still give me the chills, not just dark, also deep and poetic. I love how she liked this, all the postive things, smiling like a little girl and at the same time making a 'scientific' explanation on how technically good this band is, deconstructing it to the atoms. Also, you made a new fan here, Liz. Up the irons, people!
Couldn’t have said it better myself, 100% agree, she’s awesome.
Charismatic voice I love your video’s! You are incredibly beautiful and your insight on vocals is amazing! Iron Maiden is amazing!
Utterly wonderful! Thankyou for recognising Bruce @
Bruce: rest in the middle of a solo?, rest when the other guys are playing their best? NOOO! I´ll run, jump, and perform with the public. Iron Maiden is one of the most energetic metal bands that I ever see.
And that is a performance 30 years after it originally came out. These dudes have been performing for more than 40 years, and always with this level of energy and engagement
Make that almost 40 years. That song is from 1982.
Yeah, more than 30 years old, they played it back in 86 live in Lisbon (first Concert I attended) with the same energy.
Number of the Beast (the album the song was on) was recorded in 1982, when Dickinson was 23; this was recorded during their Somewhere Back In Time tour, during 2008 (26 years later) when Dickinson was 49. After he'd had throat cancer.
@@eruantien9932 Nope. The cancer was treated in 2015.
I love seeing you do this. You first are gorgeous and your expressions are so WOW. Bruce trained as a opera singer by the way. Is like a surreal experience to see them!
Happy New Year to Elizabeth and all the people on this great channel.
I absolutely love the way this woman "nerds out" over great singing!
It's great to look at this stuff through new eyes
Validates my awesome taste in music
He's not only an official pilot, he beat throat cancer. There's no one more of a real badass metal guy than him lol
Edit: Sidenote. I've HEARD (dunno if true) that they are mostly West Ham United fans. Like actually hardcore fans. And they played a private friendly match, it rained, and later they were washing they were in the showers, butt naked washing their WHU shirts. Shows a lot of humility, if true.
There is no One like him. He doesn’t just fly a plane. He actually had a day job training pilots and flying planes. And fenced as well up to national level.

@@fredrikasvik True. There was a post on Reddit a few years ago where a big Iron Maiden fan actually had him as a teacher for a pilots class/lesson. He had a pic of them together and everything. Bruce was in his pilot uniform. He's a professional in every aspect of his life. www.reddit.com/r/Metal/comments/u1yiq/heres_the_story_of_me_meeting_bruce_dickinson/
He also said No to the Olympics to tour with Maiden lol
@@eLWacKaZ yep Olympic level fencer, that's how he can jump and land on monitors like that.
And he's a near Olympic quality fencer.
I love the smile on your face when you watch music from my era. I am a colleged trained Jazz drummer, but still love my 80's metal bands..
I´m so so so looking forward to see them next month live *goosebumps*.
Imagine again, he is in his 60's here and "Hallowed" is a song that is mostly at the end of a show. So he is already 1h on stage for sure. For me, one of the best (metal)singers ever.
Yeah Dude!!!!!!
Its really!!!!!!
Up The Irons 🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼
My favorite Maiden tune of all..
This was a concert from quite awhile ago, he was not 60 when this was performed.
@@orion7741 you're right, this was probably when they were in their 50s
His age is showing. Bruce held that note in the beginning a lot longer, twice, back in the day. Still, he's forever a vocal beast.
@Noah Sikorski I mean yall are forgetting that he beat throat cancer which is usually a career ender for most musicians if it wasnt for that his voice would be hitting the notes a lot better.
Man in his sixties that had throat cancer doesn't sing as well as he did in his thirties.
Yeah, that's normal.
@@Rafael-xu9cn I saw in on the last tour, and he didn't look embarassed.
@@Rafael-xu9cn yeah I Saw Them in 2018 and for sure he wasn't embarrassing at all
@@frking100 Woe to that cancer. It picked the wrong gent to mess with if it ever wanted to stand a chance. Cheers to the physicians and UP THE IRONS!
Just saw them a few weeks ago in concert. Old dudes but still rocking out like it’s 1986. Love them.
Love your reaction to this and as always I love the technical analysis as much as just the joy in taking in the storytelling too. I would recommend his autobiography - brilliantly written, great insight into him and also his vision for the band.
Maiden were my intro to metal - my dad would take me to the library music section and I would pick vinyl albums often based on the cover artwork. Their album Seventh Son of A Seventh Son captivated me first with the art and then the music. I also love Bruce’s solo work.
Yes! A reaction to Bruce Dickinson was long overdue and Hallowed Be Thy Name is the perfect place to start. 😊 I just wish you had chosen an earlier concert when he was in his prime. He doesn't reach the high notes like he used to or he dodges them entirely. Also he used to hold that note in the beginning a LOT longer. Although, judging by your face you really liked him, so that makes me happy 😉
I just wonder why people always want reactors to react older stuff from performer? And I'm not speaking only about this song, but in general. The old songs even if they are good and performers are in their prime, they don't reflect how they sing nowadays. It's more realistic to listen songs which represent their current act. And later react to older stuff to get perspective what was their starting point.
@@JanneTarhanen Well this was not nowadays, i guess this was almoust 20 years old consert.
Soo listen to him sing the same song now.
@@oscarn8482 But still this one is much newer than the '82 version. I wouldn't mind if someone would react to the Mexico 2019, his still good.
@@JanneTarhanen ohyea he can still sing, and he will sing for many years i hope.
@@JanneTarhanen A lot of vocalists are dead. If their most recent performance was done, representative or not, the deterioration would have them at their lowest. Going into a new artist, reactors wouldn't necessarily know what to expect, so having them hear an artist at their top form seems more logical than utterly disappointing them in most cases.
One of the things I really like about your reaction videos is that I feel like as a person that's been in this genre for so long, I feel like I've become really jaded. I see this and think "yeah, that's just Iron Maiden." This is the kind of musicianship and performance that I expect out of a good metal band. I need to be reminded that this is NOT normal, that Bruce's vocals are NOT average, that their energy level on stage is NOT expected, that their musical talent is NOT mundane. This genre is so hard to survive in that it's easy to become accustomed to this level of playing being the norm.
We metalheads are extremely spoiled.
same with me I get Very Angry with myself
but their re-action makes up for it
Brilliantly put. Musically and vocally Iron Maiden is crazy good.
Perfectly put. I often think to myself when I do music that if only I had 10% of their talent, never mind reaching their level of greatness.
It's the too much of a good thing phenomena. Too much good wine, sex, music etc. Starts the become meh. Maiden are definitely best enjoyed live 🙂
Extra good that you choose this. Another of those analyses that brings up lots of emotions in me. I was so into Iron Maiden as a teenager. How did you leave it so long to hear them?!
So many sploosh moments when she is listening. She really appreciates technique. I am so glad to find this channel.
Listen to the album version. He was 30 years younger. His range was out of this world
His range was just as good on Rock In Rio 2001
@@marinhrabric6162 His Prime was on RIR 2001. Unbeatable
Older live versions is good too
I think his vocal range isn't as wide as it was 30 years ago. Another thing that changes with age.
I agree... the album version is just amazing!
Lesson kids: Be careful what vocal melodies you write for yourself when you're age 20.
May still need to sing it when you're 3 times that age.
I once saw an interview with older Billy Joel who said he hated Young Billy Joel.
Ask John bon jovi about that high c# on the keychange in living on a prayer.
Aparently you haven't listened to The warning, they're geniuses at playing and composing music, and they're teenagers
@@chewingpiano Let's see if they can still perform the same way when they're 50 lmao
@@ZeroDarknezz trust me, they will. Iron maiden, and some other bands sounded still great and they were like 60s 70s y/o. The warning is the future of rock by far. 3 sisters multitalented, and one of best playing live lmaoooo
Part of the thrill of Iron Maiden is seeing them live. I can't wait to see them again in October. There is a connection between the band and the audience. The energy ebb and flows from one to the other and builds through the concert. You see this type of connection with some of the biggest bands: Iron Maiden, Dio (RIP), Ozzy, Judas Priest, Rush, Ghost and many more. These bands really appreciate their fans and putting on a show for them, one that goes beyond their albums.
