    This is the difference between music back in the day and now. No backing tracks, no auto tune. Just raw talent. Maiden has had a huge world wide following for 40 years for a reason.

    Bruce Dickenson is the vocalist and had earned the nickname of "The Human Air Raid Siren", for his powerful voice. He has for many years now been considered to be one of the top metal vocalists. I have seen Maiden live 3 times in my life, and what you will always get is energy personified, even at their current ages. You can see it in their performances that they are having fun and also love the fans, as you can also see! They are one of those bands that are better live then studio. Another standout live performance is: Fear of the Dark (live from Rock in Rio). and Rime of the Ancient Mariner (Live Flight 666) which is a long one. But they are great storytellers as you will see in their music!

      In my opinion the version of Live After Death in '85 is superior in speed, deployment of the musicians and accuracy of the sound, as well as in its staging (I am referring to the style of filming the concert, which is more cinematic). Furthermore, the musicians were at their best, Bruce's voice sounded at full strength and it was the tour's presentation of the song itself. But I can understand that so many people recommend Flight 666 because it is more modern (perhaps) and as a curiosity of how the band remained at a very high level to this day (although said tour is already 16 years old since it was carried out). ).

    Great reaction and thanks for sharing. Iron Maiden is an incredible band. I have seen them in concert during 5 decades, 80's to present. Iron Maiden also did the soundtrack to the car racing wrecking game called Carmageddon. They generally don't write songs about your typical stuff. Most is written about history, movies, books or personal events. This song was written about the emotional/spiritual journey a man condemned to death goes thru in his personal relationship with a higher power. With the end of the song being the drums doing the kicking motion after a hanging. Other live songs worth hearing: 'Fear of the Dark' at Rock in Rio. Just a small crowd of 250,000 mostly non English speaking Brazilians showing how a crowd is supposed to physically and spiritually lift a band during a concert. Its jaw dropping and awe inspiring.
    Other notable songs: Phantom of the Opera (not from the musical); Run to the Hills; Children of the Damned; The Prisoner; Number of the Beast; Still Life; Flight of Icarus; 22 Acacia Avenue; Revelations; 2 Minutes to Midnight; Rime of the Ancient Mariner; The Trooper; Power Slave; Stranger in a Strange Land; Alexander the Great; more recent songs: The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg; Dance of Death; For the Greater Good of God; Ghost of the Navigator; The Writing on the Wall recorded just a few years ago.
    I came nowhere near listing all the great and amazing songs. Just listed a few off the top of my head.
    Thanks for finding the rabbit hole that is Iron Maiden. In concert they are the best band I have ever heard. The musicianship is unmatched. Bruce's vocals even now as he is aging and surviving throat cancer are still top notch. Not the same as the 80's but still amazing. His crowd work is also unmatched.

    Hey Stacey. I'm stoked that you liked this song and the band. This is the track I use to introduce someone to Iron Maiden. They do write shorter songs, but are really better known for their epics. The vocalist, Bruce Dickinson, attained his vocals and singing style from studying theatre as he performed in many theatrical plays throughout his educational years. During Iron Maiden concerts on specific songs, Bruce will even make a costume change and portray a character that the theme of the song centres around. He is also one of the rarest lead vocalists that can actually run around all over the stage, whilst still singing perfectly. He is only just starting to slow down a bit now at the age of 65. Most of the bands subject matter for their songs tends to be based on history, literature and the human psyche.

    This was recorded at Hammersmith in London on 20th March 1982 as part of the tour to promote the album this song was on. The album was released 2 days later on 22nd March so it was a totally new song to the audience. The album was only recorded in the January/February so 8-10 weeks earlier.

    One of many Maiden masterpieces and my favorite track of theirs. This particular live version is top too!

  • @marcelopessoa4911

    First of all, thank you for reacting to my favorite rock band! Fan since 1983! (this video you've just watched was taken from a famous concert they performed one year before I get to know their amazing music).
    Second, this was a nice reaction and you're smart enough to realize you got a long journey with Iron Maiden, for they're such an awesome band with many great hits.
    If you want to get to know them better, I got some informations for you: nowadays, their drummer is such an amazing one - Nicko McBrain (R.I.P., Clive Burr!); they got no more 2, but 3 guitarists; they've just released a new album some years ago ("Senjutsu" - 2021) and they'll be on tour this year ("The Future Past Tour").
    Basic informations: their leader is the bass guitarist, Steve Harris, one of the greatest EVER in Rock History! And, in my opinion, he is the best heavy metal songwriter!
    He's been the composer of most of Maiden's songs.
    The vocalist you enjoyed so much, Bruce Dickinson, composes some songs too, and he is graduated in History, PHD in Egyptology, and he is also a pilot, having driven many times the "Ed Force One", the plane Iron Maiden uses to travel from one country to the other one when they're on tour.
    Regarding to your next Maiden's reaction...if you want to be surprised and get goosebumps once again, I got a perfect suggestion for you: "Rime of the ancient mariner" (based on a poem by Samuel Taylor Coleridge).
    Some other fine suggestions: "Fear of the dark"; "Wasted years"; "The trooper"; "The number of the beast"; "Aces High"; "Infinite dreams"; "Stranger in a strange land"; and "The writing on the wall" from their latest album (the official music video).
    Have a nice iron journey and...
    Up the irons! 🤘

    The ultimate professionals, still playing for 40+ years. Always on time, always sober, always an amazing performance. Amazing they can play these complex songs decades later in tune and in time every time, every night, on every corner of the globe.

    Bruce, in addition to being a one of the best vocalists and performers in metal, is an author and novelist, a screenwriter, a radio DJ, a TV presenter and producer, a commercial airline pilot flying Boeing 757 and 737, a successful Entrepreneur including building an aircraft maintenance company, a pilot training company, and a brewery. He's also a champion fencer that competed internationally amongst other talents.

  • @WhatDayIsItTrumpDay

    Great that you picked up on the bass early on in the song. That's Steve Harris, one of the founding members of the band. His style of playing is very unique and drives most of the band's songs in such a way. His bass sound is iconic in the Metal World. It's usually very prominent in their sound mixes as you heard here. Don't know if other Maiden fans do this but I often play along with him with my Air Bass.
    Oh, I should add that I've been a fan of the band since about 1988, when their 7th album came out. Seventh Son of a Seventh Son. "Hallowed be thy Name" was on their 3rd album, 1982's "Number of the Beast."
    "Phantom of the Opera" is NOT a cover of what you think it is. It's their own song from their 1980 self-titled debut album.
    A song I think you should definitely check out is "The Red and the Black" from their 2015 album (and tour) "The Book of Souls." It's a long one at about 14 minutes, but it's got some great guitrar solos and harmonies that just showcase their talent.
    Funny little fact abouf the band is that after their 1988 album "Seventh Son", their guitarist Adrian Smith left the band and Janick Gers replaced him. Then after the 1992 album and "Fear of the Dark" tour, the vocalist Bruce Dickinson left too to focus on acsolo career. However after putting out two albums with Blaze Bayley on vocals in the mid 90s, both Bruce and Adrian came back to the band for a new album in 2000 called "Brave New World." But instead of kicking Janick out, they kept him, and Maiden has had 3 guitarists ever since. Janick is a real pleasure to watch too. He's running and jumping on stage, but never misses the beat with his playing. The video for "The Red and the Black" (Live) shows him off pretty well.

    I love Iron Maiden but haven’t had the pleasure of seeing them live. My father had in the 80’s and told me stories about Bruce during the show. He said that he was incredibly energetic the whole time. Running around and hopping on top of tall stacks of speakers like it was nothing.
    On another note, if your curious to hear another version of this song, try watching the cover by Cradle of Filth (Black Metal) 🖤

    I think that for a older man (became 66 years old on august 7 / 2024) and the fact that he has gone through cancer of the tongue and lymph nodes, then he sounds great, don't you agree?
    Bruce Dickinson is an ICON and so is the rest of the band members of Iron Maiden, he has great breath control and voice control.
    One thing that makes his voice even better, that is if you realize that he had cancer of the tongue and lymph nodes. A lump “the size of a golf ball” was found on the back of his tongue and still he can sing like that, wow right?
    Dickinson had the tumor removed in 2015. Since then, he’s noticed a world of difference.
    “When it went away, I guess there's a lot more space for the sound come out!,” the front man proclaimed. “Not to put too fine a point on it, but there's no more obstruction in the way, you know? So yeah, with the high notes I was like, ‘Wow! Whoosh!’ There's a lot more horsepower in some of the high notes, which is interesting.”
    Not to bad by a older guy, you might want to read about his tongue and lymph nodes cancer, right, so here is the link to it:
    faroutmagazine.co.uk/bruce-dickinson-iron-maiden-cancer-battle-im-lucky/
    .
    Knowing that he is over 60 years here and the he already had cancer of the tongue and lymph nodes, that makes his voice even more amazing, right?
    Bruce is also a licesend Pilot and a really good Fencer !!

You need to check out first off. I dare you. Beautiful to listen to the whole album power slave. You could do the same thing with the number. The beastdalbum piece of mind, almum are my 3 favorite, but they've got great albums dating all the way up.

    Once saw Iron Maiden and Queensryche together, back to back. This was before Queensryche self-destructed. I can't even describe it -- such enormity of talent in one place, on one stage. Brilliant is an understatement. Totally exhausted by the end of the night. Thank you, Chicago, illinois, for the best concert of my life.

    I'm glad you finally got around to Maiden! I gave you a pretty long list of suggestions after you reacted to Sabaton. Maiden regularly uses history, mythology, literature, and movies as the basis for their songs. You should do "Fear of the Dark" from Rock in Rio next, or "The Trooper, " from En Vivo.

    Really enjoyed your reaction, they truly are great, and you're a quick study, I actually saw this same tour (yes I'm old) it was the first time Iron Maiden came to Canada, and it was one hell of a show! Also Clive Burr was a great drummer, sadly he died a few years back, am glad I got to see him play. Look forward to more of your reactions.

    Very nice reaction Stacey. Glad you got to Iron Bloody Maiden :) My first listen was in 1984 when a friend lended me his Piece of Mind cassette. First song I heard was Where Eagles Dare. Couldn't believe my ears! Just a whole new and different sound that I never heard before. I was 100% hooked on these guys at that very point. They're a class band too. And smart, well read, more than just metal heads. And by all accounts pretty damn good people too. Have had the pleasure of seeing them live 3 times. They're so good.
    Next one for you, suggestion: Fear of the Dark...live. All the best to you on your Maiden journey. Up The Irons!!! ✌😊🤘

    I don't care how far you have to travel, you need to see them live. This tour featured in this video was my first exposure to them, I must have seen them 30 times since then and have never been disappointed.
    Also when you get to songs like The Trooper (based off the poem The Charge of The Light Brigade) or the musical version of The Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner make sure you do the live version made more recently and keep in mind when listening to Bruce sing he survived throat cancer and sounds even better than he did before.
    Loved your reaction, just subbed for more

    Been a Maiden fan since 1982, and as good as Iron Maiden's albums have been, I always felt that they are so much better Live. This video was from 1982, check out their newer live shows, especially from South America. Those crowds are rabid Maiden fans. And these guys, even though they are now in their 60's, the drummer is 71, their energy level is still through the roof, and are still putting on phenomenal shows.

Great reaction as well))) These guys are so tight when they are on stage it's like you would hear on the studio version only actually better)).. They are without a doubt a 15 out of 10 with each performance video I seen.. I never been to a concert but unforunatelly I missed them 3 times on their Piece Of Mind our. The first in St. Louis in 1985, the second was in Illinois, they played near Chicago I believe the night before I graduated boot camp, then the third times was in Oakland , California they played I found the same night I arrived in California.... 3 times on the same tour missed them... The bad part is I had a ticket for the first one but had to sell my ticket to pay a couple of fines before leaving for boot camp.😭.. You are starting a wonderful metal journey Stacey... Here's a suggestion for future reaction, it's a bit lengthy but awesome song & worth the listen.. Here you go: Iron Maiden 1985 - The Rime Of The Ancient Mariner - Live at Long Beach Arena....
