Thank you for watching Empire Of The Clouds, our biggest challenge yet and probably Iron Maiden's biggest masterpiece!

I have to ask about the location.. Is the field you shot the video in meant to symbolize the field in France where the airship went down? Or is it perhaps the actual location? Ifcthat is the case, both of you really did this story justice. Excellent rendition!
You prolly dont care but if you're bored like me atm you can stream all of the latest movies and series on instaflixxer. Have been streaming with my brother for the last couple of months xD
Don't know what it is but Iron Maiden songs sound amazing acoustically. Almost like they were written to be played that way and Maiden just plays it amplified. lol I wonder how the guys in Maiden feel about Thomas's rendition of their music. Would be amazing to have Bruce sing to Thomas's playing.
What’s amazing is that Harris has absolutely no musical training at all, and he’s a huge part of the writing on many of their song. Now, he didn’t write this one, this one is just Dickinson. But you’ve nailed it, all their songs could be played like this, especially their later ones. Despite little training among their members, they somehow have that classical influence. Perhaps that’s why it’s called classical. There’s actually studies that show that fans of classical music and of metal, particularly the more “classic” metal, tend to have similar IQs and thought processes.
@@QuietToproll Empire is the best song in their career, their masterpice/magnum opus. Maybe other songs feel more "maiden-ish" in their format and will please the fans more, but this is an universally great song. It certainly deserved better production and mixing as the whole album, and deserves a live recording with orchestra at a theater or concert hall (this would certainly end the debate).
What a great cover you've created here. Would like to hear the whole piece though. I really think this would be a great orchestral track with maiden playing with you on stage as well. It's probably the most accomplished track they've ever done. A real masterpiece.
Oh my Goodness , I wish I had this when I was pregnant and after . This is the sort of music my daughter would point or ask to go for a ride to listen to and in no time was sleeping . Often , something a bit harder . Thank you , Quite Lovely !
Sempre obras primas !!! Atualmente gosto muito do violino nós vídeos e um toque especial demais fade tô black ficou espetacular também. Parabéns 😃🤟🎵🎶🇧🇷👏👏👏🙏
You guys are just so amazing. I love what you do in every single video, but this song gave me goose bumps all over. You really got the vibe of the song just right and I thank you for producing this and sharing it with us!

Up the Irons!
You’re a genius. Absolutely beautiful!
Simply stunning. Soul stirring. As beautiful as the original

@Maison Cory yup, I've been using instaflixxer for months myself =)
He's turning into Dave Murray
LOOOL
Maybe it's just Dave's "Thomas Zwijsen" disguise that's slowly wearing off.... and the violin girl is probably Steve Harris.
Damn I just commented that on his last video, didn't even see that comment, I guess we all agree! Young Dave is around us! :)
Finally an acoustic cover which does justice to this amazing piece!
Damn! If only we could get Bruce to sing over this, it would be amazing beyond belief!
Or Raphael Mendes. That guys Bruce singing style is uncanny. Have a look for him on UA-cam.
Great!
How about at Wacken on the Wackinger Stage? :)
Bad-ass! Great as instrumental, great arrangement and playing of course!
Thomas, are you trying to look like Dave Murray??? 😂😁
Great arrangement and exhibition of this perfect piece of music!
Yo también noté lo mismo ajajajajja
Not trying to show boat not trying to make a point just making beauty appear in our ears. That's an artist.

Blaze did a few song with them, you can check that !

❤️❤️❤️❤️
Very proud of you!!
You definitely add a lot to each other musically thanks a lot for being together
This is beyond beautiful! That must have been difficult to do, but great work. Best Maiden song released in this century IMO
Disagree about being the best this century. It’s not even the best song on the album in my opinion. The Book of Souls is a better song on the album.
@@QuietToproll Agree.

@@VNeto94 If it had better mixing/quality and if Bruce sounded 15 years younger then it would be up there.
@@QuietToproll A better mixing would certainly help Bruce too.
Damn, even voiceless covers of this song make me cry o.O
This Autumn sky with those grey clouds makes the perfect set for this song.
Mist is in the trees,
Stone sweats with the dew.
The morning sunrise,
Red before the blue.
*Thanks. God bless you*
What a great cover you've created here. Would like to hear the whole piece though.

Its a masterpiece again! 🤗 Well done! 🥇
This song was the opening song of our wedding dance. 😁
Awesome!!!!!!!
I'm watch this with tears in my eyes. So I'm crying. Love it ❤️
UNGLAUBLICH schön!!!!!!!!
Mach bitte weiter so......
Beste Grüße aus Hamburg/ Deutschland
Thomas never fails to amaze me with acoustic versions.
Unbelievable cover, not just a cover but reinvention of the soul of the song

Какие же вы молодцы)
