Hello everyone! I have started a new channel called "Roar!" where I take on challenges and push myself out of my comfort zone. You can check it out here: th-cam.com/users/roarrawr
You in a nutshell: Hello, look at me, someone you have no clue about... however, I am listening to this artist that you like and all know already... Please send me a donation on Patreon...
Yay! I have loved this song forever and when I was a baby my mum used to play it so I could sleep, I really enjoy metal, rock , hard rock , death metal, ect
Ive seen Iron Maiden 31 times, never...NEVER!.... have they or the fans let me down. Truly one of the most loyal and passionate fans in the world, and we welcome all.
Youre right.... you can always count on a passionate crowd of fans at a maiden concert. To me, more than any other band, their concerts are basically a celebration of the bands existence and everyone is in on it. 90% of the people in the stadium are wearing their favorite maiden shirt, including the band. Anyone that knows any lyrics is singing them. Its almost cult like... and i mean that in the best way possible lol.
I saw them live in 2016. I was pregnant with my daughter and that was the first time I felt her kick. Bruce, the man who told throat cancer to sod off, still sounds as amazing as he always had, and still runs on the stage like maniac. How can you not love Maiden?
That's amazing. I tear up almost every single time I see this concert. It's the concert that really exploded my love for Iron Maiden when I was a teenager. And even Maiden themselves say that South America is where the best and most intense fans are. Love watching the Maiden shows from South America ^^
It’s definitely a family! Watching the flags of 10 countries flying in the crowd all together is wonderful to see! And they are second to none live! Always bring it.
This new breed of reaction channels on youtube have opened up for a lot metal, and through them a lot of people see metal in a new light. And i love it!
Iron Maiden is and has been my all time favorite band ever for over thirty years. I was around seven years old when I first listened to Hallowed Be Thy Name and it changed my life forever!! I love every era from Iron Maiden. The Paul Dianno era, the first Bruce Dickinson era, the Blaze Bayley era, and the second Bruce Dickinson era in my opinion are all PHENOMENAL!!! Steve Harris in my eyes is the greatest songwriter ever. He has always surrounded himself with amazing musicians. I have been to hundreds of concerts these past twenty five years, and Iron Maiden is easily the greatest live band I have ever seen. There are still as amazing as they were 25 years ago when I first saw them . They are still having fun performing on stage because they love what they are doing. There is a reason why Iron Maiden has the fan base that it does. My second all time favorite band does not even come close to how amazing Iron Maiden is. Iron Maiden has never failed me ever. I even love the albums The X Factor and Virtual 11 which many fans don't care for. The X Factor to me is a MASTERPIECE! I love how dark it is. UP THE IRONS!!!!!
I've heard he was asked to join the British Fencing team in 1988 (although I can't corroborate that), and apparently he was ranked 7th in the GB at some point.
@@arkadye Something like that yes. It was in his autobiography "What does this button do?", which is a great book by the way. He also told there that he was into theatre in school and he sees Iron Maiden shows as plays more than concerts. That's why he's running around etc. so much; he's acting. And his singing is also painting a picture and telling a story. All that combined with THAT voice...
Bruce Dickinson should have an mbe. Olympic standard fencer, commercial airline pilot, driving force for growth behind Cardiff aviation, throat cancer survivor, incredible frontman and singer, beer brewer, philanthropist, journalist, author and all round polymath. I doubt many will have lived such a life and be loved and respected by so many.
Bruce is one of the best frontmen to ever take to the stage. And considering his age, I’m pretty sure they still play their songs in the original keys. So many other bands have had to drop down a couple of steps to compensate for their vocalist.
They still play their songs in the same key, but I feel like their more recent albums are in lower keys and heavier, maybe deliberately so, but Bruce still goes for the belted high notes. He mentioned in an interview promoting The Book Of Souls that he wrote the opening song for his solo work, and the guitars were tuned to drop D, so when he played it to the Maiden lads, they were trying to work out what was going on, Steve Harris apparently said “that’s in drop D ain’t it? We’ve never done that before, maybe it’s about time we did” I know Adrian plays a few older songs in drop D to add a new harmony to what Dave and Janick are playing. So I think there is a natural progression for them to bring the key down in their newer material to compensate Bruce’s voice lowering slightly, but they do indeed play all their songs in their original keys.
@@CoffeeMatt10 - I would say his voice is 'deepening' in timbre more than lowering much in upper pitch range - Bruce almost sings better live than he did in 1990. I'm an instrumentalist so when people say the singer didn't sing the notes they used to, well the math is easy and they can be quite wrong. Even Avril Lavigne has deepened as her voice has matured, but her pitch range is pretty similar on singing her older stuff.
@@CoffeeMatt10 Aye Bruce’s solo stuff often went lower (possibly just to be heavier?) but the majority of Maiden’s stuff is still in E. Considering bands like Bon Jovi are having to drop a few steps down these days. It’s pretty awesome Bruce can still handle the original keys, but then Steve Harris wouldn’t be happy about changing them, which was the issue with Blaze. I assume the increasing use Les Pauls indicates drop-D tuning etc.
Gotta be honest, I am not even here for the analysis anymore. At this point its just the pure, contagious enjoyment of it all ... when they pick up around 4:00 and you just so visibly love it, made me bounce in my chair after a dreary, tired day.
Steve IS IRON MAIDEN! The Bands Sound,Style And Level Of Performance Are Due To Steve's Tutelage And Unwavering Vision! Not To Mention....He Wrote 80+% Of The MAIDEN Music.
Been in the audience twice (in the pit once) for Maiden when they did this song. I get goose bumps watching the crowd reliving my time experiencing it. Bruce trains by singing the entire set for the tour, front to back, while rollerblading around.
En Vivo actually means live...The Santiago, Chile performances are indeed great. I'd like to hear them play more deep cuts on a bigger collection of live recordings.
Maybe in the future she might cover one of my all time favourite bands who were Japanese.............. Vow Wow! Here are a few of their albums th-cam.com/play/PLSpbh2oUvdm-pAZtMtzLPZfBGYN1talJj.html and th-cam.com/play/PLSpbh2oUvdm8dhaFJtKS_3u9000oINeX1.html and th-cam.com/play/PLooO2pnhEkLjoF7cuFKHgArgVSfififng.html
Love this performance, goose bumps every time with the crowd joining in at the start also Bruce does workout to help his breathing, he's an international fencer
This is one of my all time favorite live performances. If a person doesn’t get those goosebumps every time they listen to this especially with the crowd of hundreds of thousands all humming along to the instrumentals you can’t trust them! Great choice! Doesn’t hurt these guys are my favorite band!
Rollerblading has become the forgotten, underrated cardio thanks to its 'passé' generational stigma. It probably really protects the legs and joints and everything from all the abuse of Bruce's leaping around on stage. I say inline skating will soon come back!
@@j_freed rollerblading and rollerskating both got really popular during the summer and early fall! at least here in California. it's definitely under-appreciated as a cardio and full body strengthening exercise
And he takes patronising, b*llsh*tting politicians apart on national radio. They invariably have no idea how insanely sharp witted and intelligent the man is. They always assume because they're suited toffs, and he's a singer in a heavy metal band, they've got the upper hand. Oh, how utterly wrong they always prove themselves to be. :-) An abject lesson in never judging a man by how he dresses.
Beth, I’ve been a Maiden fan since I was 15 in 1984 when I first heard “The Number Of The Beast” album. Bruce’s vocal range floored me along with Dave and Adrian’s guitar abilities. So excited to see your age group along with my 15 year old son appreciate their talent. Maiden’s appeal to me is that it’s like a metal opera and most of the songs have a mythological or historical basis. Thank You!!!
This is my favorite live recording of Iron Maiden, big props to the engineers for the live album. In so many cases the audio is muddy and the crowd is overbearing, but this album knocks it out of the park.
OMG!!!! This is my favorite version of Fear of the Dark, I love it! Dave Murray (second guitar solo) has a beautiful tone live. If you liked the theatrical aspect of this, you should check out The Sign of the Cross (also by Maiden). Idk of any other live versions but the one from this Rock In Rio a delight.
@@palomahout did it ages ago. Thought they were pretty silly in it... which.. anyone taking the film Braveheart as a basis...it IS going to be silly. That said it is a GREAT Fantasy Movie.
4 ปีที่แล้ว
the best version of that song is in Santiago, Chile; days before Rio.
She's done this song already..but she thought Bruce was putting on a Scottish accent,so she wasn't to happy..she got ripped in the comments section,then deleted the video..
This is what got me into Iron Maiden as a young guy. Mowed lawns for two weeks to save up for the double disc at shopko. I was then surprised by my parents with the dvd set for Christmas. Can’t believe it’s been a 20 year journey with this band.
I’ve been privileged to see the band live and the iron maiden hooks are incredible, the melody after you spoke about ‘hooks’ happens every single time and it is magical.
I am glad you used the Rock In Rio, most of their songs live are the best on that album if you ask me. First live album with Iron Maiden for me, but still the best versions of the songs
You haven't experienced Maiden till you've seen them live. My daughters took me along twice to be in the seated area with my grand-daughter. Bruce had the audience in the palm of his hand, and the fans are such an amazing bunch too. The best band I have seen live!
One part Bruce Dickinson + one part Iron Maiden crowd + one part South American crowd = SONIC PARADISE. I will listen to EVERY live recording of a Maiden show. On their worst night, they put everyone else to shame on their BEST nights.
I've only recently found the various "vocal reaction" videos. And I gotta say I love how much Beth seems to get so much pleasure listening to these. You can see her lose herself in the music. Always funny to see these more traditional vocal coaches find themselves headbanging away going "what have I been missing all these years"
This has to be in the top 5 best ever live performances, any category! I'm not a huge Maiden fan, they aren't my favorite band, but this live concert is just insanity! Great stuff!
Iron maiden are one of the only bands that can take 100k people and make them another instrument in the band. There arent many bands half their age who have anywhere near this energy. These guys are all in their 60s. This has to be my favourite maiden song. First saw them tour with it in 93.
Any iron maiden you do warms my heart. Your reaction is so heartfelt and puts some more nuance on what us metal heads feel, but can’t explain haha. I love this
Omg lol within seconds I commented what I said. And then you repeated the word nuance. That is what makes iron maiden beautiful. The highest highs and the most beautiful lows.
Student of the great Don Lawrence here. This is my single favorite live performance ever, and your rocking out/breakdown made me so happy. Excellent job.
Awesome reaction as always :) This is one of my top 3 Iron Maiden songs and this performance is absolutely epic. Love it :) Thank you so much for doing this
4:10 YEAH Beth - rock it out! Love it. I've been a Maiden fan since the early/mid 1980s. So much fun watching you enjoy them. Another awesome video. Bruce is one of the very rare heavy metal singers who has been able to maintain most of his range with age, and especially the intensity and energy. It's incredible.
One thing that's useful to look at for the guitarists and writers: over the quiet intro the guitars are doing picked out bits, so there's always some motion and complexity in the sound, even though there's not much going on. Meanwhile, the vocal line is comparatively simple. When the tempo really kicks in the drums do a lot of the work carrying the complexity and the guitars drop back to just playing chords, without even strumming. Just hit the chord and hold it till you get to the next one (with touches of ornamentation now and then). They get more complex again at the chorus (adding the galloping rhythm that's so associated with Iron Maiden), and when they do this the vocal becomes much simpler, repeating the same lyric over and over again. The additional complexity in the guitars is counteracted by the reduced complexity of the vocals. When Bruce stops singing, the guitars come back playing more complex lines again. Once everyone has heard the various lines in the guitars and the vocals, then they start combining them. This is how they get more mileage out of the music and keep the interesting for longer, but also they can have musical complexity without it overloading the listener. Lots of Iron Maiden songs work this way, and it's a really good technique to take into your writing and guitar playing.
Also, the second chorus has a different rhythm and tempo than the first chorus, and that's where they start with the galloping… not the first chorus. And I thought that's pretty unique for a song to do that. Then the middle melody / instrumental section is more galloping, and there's a few key changes and this amazing melodic and vocal bridge before it mostly goes away from the gallop again.... but goes on to one more galloping chorus with the song slowing right down during the last few bars, before going to a whisper quiet coda. Quiet... and Dark. Masterful. The minimalism in most of this track is perfect, they only add in these changes as needed but mostly maintain a great tension. They let the listener participate and interact with that tension and space.
To hell with Disnelyland - the Happiest Place on Earth is being in the crowd at an Iron Maiden concert!!! They are a live band - they go out and give 110% every show and the crows gives it right back in chanting and appreciation. Even the people in the crowds in other countries that don't speak a word of english - the fans learn the words phonetically to be able to sing along!
I saw them live last year for their Legacy of the Beast tour! It looked to me like they had more fun than the audience did, which is something because I know me and my friends had an amazing time! This song was in the line up and it was great.
From watching Live Maiden shows (I have yet to actually see them in concert, hopefully someday), but from watching their live videos, looking at the audience, I feel like Iron Maiden is a religion. Bands like them and Metallica, people will travel all over the world to see them.
I really miss going into a concert...and even more, i really miss watching iron Maiden live, hope we get over this pandemic soon Nice reaction!!!! loved your explanation
Bruce's vowel placement is spot on. His diction and elocution is great. He controls every aspect of his singing with methodical thought, down to how he stands to allow maximum control. Cool vid. Metal forever! 🤘🏻
If an entire body could smile-- It would look like Beth... Great energy! Iron Maiden is amazing because they have always done what ever they wanted to do-- Talent meets Freedom. I grew up listening to Maiden, and could hardly wait for new albums to come out-- They will always be a part of my life.
I love how open you are to music that probably isn't your thing and it shows that you really enjoy it. Before they call it a day, you'll have to see Maiden live once with your Uncle. Oh, and that comment you made about the 'sweet spot' between the British accents and American accents? It's known as 'Australian'..
Its kind of fascinating to see such analytic videos about the music i listen to for over three decades. Its a pleasure even to watch those, if the analyst is obviously enjoying the music so much.
Love the little bits of insight that a layman like me would not normally pick up on - such as Bruce shouting to the crowd just before certain parts in order to get his voice ready. I've been listening to maiden for 25 years at this point and these videos have made me appreciate these performances even more... Which I never thought would be possible. Thanks Beth
The BEST crowds in Metal! Bruce and the whole band are consummate professionals..... loved your reaction to the whole performance and your physical reactions and facial expressions filled my heart with joy......that's exactly how I feel when I'm watching them perform live.....THE BEST!
I love when people focus on every piece of the metal songs especially, not just the vocals, because their great, melodic, powerful, melodious, emotional, epic melodies and transitions!!! That’s why i adore Iron Maiden! Most of their songs are like that! And bruce vocal range and how he uses his voice differently depends on music and topic!! This music sticks in my head sometimes!!! The deep, dark, emotional and beautiful melodies/hooks/ riffs are mind blowing!!!

@@palomahout did it ages ago. Thought they were pretty silly in it... which.. anyone taking the film Braveheart as a basis...it IS going to be silly. That said it is a GREAT Fantasy Movie.
the best version of that song is in Santiago, Chile; days before Rio.
Or Sign Of The Cross
She's done this song already..but she thought Bruce was putting on a Scottish accent,so she wasn't to happy..she got ripped in the comments section,then deleted the video..
This is 20 years old next month.
This along with the videos made my 19 and 17 year old Daughter and Son fan's for life.
And Bruce is 62.
I was there😀🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
This is what got me into Iron Maiden as a young guy. Mowed lawns for two weeks to save up for the double disc at shopko. I was then surprised by my parents with the dvd set for Christmas. Can’t believe it’s been a 20 year journey with this band.
Time is up
This has been my favorite song ever for as long as I can remember. And this version, with the Rock in Rio's crowd, is one of the best.
I’ve been privileged to see the band live and the iron maiden hooks are incredible, the melody after you spoke about ‘hooks’ happens every single time and it is magical.
I am glad you used the Rock In Rio, most of their songs live are the best on that album if you ask me. First live album with Iron Maiden for me, but still the best versions of the songs
It is great to see you having fun.
You haven't experienced Maiden till you've seen them live. My daughters took me along twice to be in the seated area with my grand-daughter. Bruce had the audience in the palm of his hand, and the fans are such an amazing bunch too. The best band I have seen live!
One part Bruce Dickinson + one part Iron Maiden crowd + one part South American crowd = SONIC PARADISE. I will listen to EVERY live recording of a Maiden show. On their worst night, they put everyone else to shame on their BEST nights.
I've only recently found the various "vocal reaction" videos. And I gotta say I love how much Beth seems to get so much pleasure listening to these. You can see her lose herself in the music. Always funny to see these more traditional vocal coaches find themselves headbanging away going "what have I been missing all these years"
This has to be in the top 5 best ever live performances, any category! I'm not a huge Maiden fan, they aren't my favorite band, but this live concert is just insanity! Great stuff!
Iron maiden are one of the only bands that can take 100k people and make them another instrument in the band.
There arent many bands half their age who have anywhere near this energy. These guys are all in their 60s.
This has to be my favourite maiden song. First saw them tour with it in 93.
Any iron maiden you do warms my heart. Your reaction is so heartfelt and puts some more nuance on what us metal heads feel, but can’t explain haha. I love this
Omg lol within seconds I commented what I said. And then you repeated the word nuance. That is what makes iron maiden beautiful. The highest highs and the most beautiful lows.
I love that you can see they joy on her face when she lisen to Maiden 🤘
Pity she doesn’t have the lyrics in front of her to educate herself..
Student of the great Don Lawrence here. This is my single favorite live performance ever, and your rocking out/breakdown made me so happy. Excellent job.
I really don't have much else to say other than I find your channel, fascinating.
Keep doing what you do, Beth!
Awesome reaction as always :) This is one of my top 3 Iron Maiden songs and this performance is absolutely epic. Love it :) Thank you so much for doing this
I was in this concert watching live, 2001, Rock in Rio, it was my first Iron Maiden concert, since then I've being in two more.
4:10 YEAH Beth - rock it out! Love it. I've been a Maiden fan since the early/mid 1980s. So much fun watching you enjoy them. Another awesome video.
Bruce is one of the very rare heavy metal singers who has been able to maintain most of his range with age, and especially the intensity and energy. It's incredible.
One thing that's useful to look at for the guitarists and writers: over the quiet intro the guitars are doing picked out bits, so there's always some motion and complexity in the sound, even though there's not much going on. Meanwhile, the vocal line is comparatively simple. When the tempo really kicks in the drums do a lot of the work carrying the complexity and the guitars drop back to just playing chords, without even strumming. Just hit the chord and hold it till you get to the next one (with touches of ornamentation now and then). They get more complex again at the chorus (adding the galloping rhythm that's so associated with Iron Maiden), and when they do this the vocal becomes much simpler, repeating the same lyric over and over again. The additional complexity in the guitars is counteracted by the reduced complexity of the vocals. When Bruce stops singing, the guitars come back playing more complex lines again. Once everyone has heard the various lines in the guitars and the vocals, then they start combining them. This is how they get more mileage out of the music and keep the interesting for longer, but also they can have musical complexity without it overloading the listener. Lots of Iron Maiden songs work this way, and it's a really good technique to take into your writing and guitar playing.
Also, the second chorus has a different rhythm and tempo than the first chorus, and that's where they start with the galloping… not the first chorus. And I thought that's pretty unique for a song to do that. Then the middle melody / instrumental section is more galloping, and there's a few key changes and this amazing melodic and vocal bridge before it mostly goes away from the gallop again.... but goes on to one more galloping chorus with the song slowing right down during the last few bars, before going to a whisper quiet coda. Quiet... and Dark.
Masterful. The minimalism in most of this track is perfect, they only add in these changes as needed but mostly maintain a great tension. They let the listener participate and interact with that tension and space.
To hell with Disnelyland - the Happiest Place on Earth is being in the crowd at an Iron Maiden concert!!! They are a live band - they go out and give 110% every show and the crows gives it right back in chanting and appreciation. Even the people in the crowds in other countries that don't speak a word of english - the fans learn the words phonetically to be able to sing along!
I've played in bands most of my life. I couldn't imagine playing in front of a crowd that size. The South American audiences are insane.
Me as well. I think I'd freeze up.
I believe the crowd count was 250K!!! That's insane!!!!
And wonderfully so!
Thanks Beth, metal has some of the most powerful singers. I'm glad you recognize it! Cheers
Your face when just the first riff starts is so epic. And I completely understand why. :-)
Crowd participation 1000%, Iron Maiden have the biggest family!
I saw them live last year for their Legacy of the Beast tour! It looked to me like they had more fun than the audience did, which is something because I know me and my friends had an amazing time! This song was in the line up and it was great.
Can't wait to see these guys live again I love iron maiden seen them at download festival !
You really took the best version to react to. I was there. It was just as impressive live. :)
I'm fond of the "A little CHILE in the Dark" version as well (... "Santiago!!" - they all scream, wow. )
Loved your reaction to this! Could see your joy! And great points about the varied techniques used by Bruce! Thank you!
From watching Live Maiden shows (I have yet to actually see them in concert, hopefully someday), but from watching their live videos, looking at the audience, I feel like Iron Maiden is a religion. Bands like them and Metallica, people will travel all over the world to see them.
I really miss going into a concert...and even more, i really miss watching iron Maiden live, hope we get over this pandemic soon
Nice reaction!!!! loved your explanation
Bruce's vowel placement is spot on. His diction and elocution is great. He controls every aspect of his singing with methodical thought, down to how he stands to allow maximum control. Cool vid. Metal forever! 🤘🏻
Good word, elocution!
Then there's half of actors who have no grasp of grammar, pronunciation, style or tone.
Growing up, this was easily one of my most listened records, so this was a real treat! Thank you!
What a treat. Thanks Beth!
If an entire body could smile-- It would look like Beth... Great energy! Iron Maiden is amazing because they have always done what ever they wanted to do-- Talent meets Freedom. I grew up listening to Maiden, and could hardly wait for new albums to come out-- They will always be a part of my life.
I love her eyes 😁
Maiden is hands down THE best live performance I’ve ever seen. I love when Bruce says “or just a FEAR....” and the crowd goes absolutely fuckin nuts
I love how open you are to music that probably isn't your thing and it shows that you really enjoy it. Before they call it a day, you'll have to see Maiden live once with your Uncle. Oh, and that comment you made about the 'sweet spot' between the British accents and American accents? It's known as 'Australian'..
Its kind of fascinating to see such analytic videos about the music i listen to for over three decades.
Its a pleasure even to watch those, if the analyst is obviously enjoying the music so much.
It's about time Beth reacts to some of Bruce's solo stuff. Tears of the Dragon perhaps?
I'm fairly sure she reviewed the official video of tears of the dragon, with the studio version of the song.
@@j_freed Doesn't show up in search.
Love the little bits of insight that a layman like me would not normally pick up on - such as Bruce shouting to the crowd just before certain parts in order to get his voice ready. I've been listening to maiden for 25 years at this point and these videos have made me appreciate these performances even more... Which I never thought would be possible.
Thanks Beth
It´s a curious thing that i can be one of those guys t comment "I was on that concert, it was amazing!"
I was on that concert, it was amazing!
You are so fortunate! How the audience was singing along here was so haunting. Must've been a great experience.
The BEST crowds in Metal!
Bruce and the whole band are consummate professionals..... loved your reaction to the whole performance and your physical reactions and facial expressions filled my heart with joy......that's exactly how I feel when I'm watching them perform live.....THE BEST!
Also you got to love how the intro has its own intro 🤤
The audience is Iron Maiden family! They're always incredible :-)
I really love your reaction and review of this beautiful piece of music
Maiden was the last concert I saw before covid.
🤘🤘
Mine too!
Need to see these chaps before they call it
Brazilian crowd/audience is unmatch. Southamerica is awesome! Greetings from São Paulo, most amazin city worldwide.
Bruce is great singer. But more importantly, he's an amazing frontman.
The G.O.A.T.
He weirdly makes you feel SEEN as an audience member.
It's impossible, but that's what he creates, that total audience connection.
The pure joy on your face is the best thing to see in this covered world. Your positivity is a greatly needed now, more than ever. Up the Irons 🤘🤘✌💚
My absolute favorite moment is Bruce lying through his teeth yelling "I can't hear you!" at all the screaming people :D
He's flirting the hell out of the audience. It's Bruce's superpower.
Your videos help me to get a deeper appreciation of music that I already loved!
Girl, I really like your enthusiasm.
Thank you, thank you a million times thank you! This is my absolute favourite Iron Maiden song... Especially live!!!!
Gotta love them "Uncle Mark"s" teaching the misguided youths about real music!!!
all music is real its always a question if it's real good
And uncle matt's teaching the neighbours lol
I love when people focus on every piece of the metal songs especially, not just the vocals, because their great, melodic, powerful, melodious, emotional, epic melodies and transitions!!! That’s why i adore Iron Maiden! Most of their songs are like that! And bruce vocal range and how he uses his voice differently depends on music and topic!! This music sticks in my head sometimes!!! The deep, dark, emotional and beautiful melodies/hooks/ riffs are mind blowing!!!
Perfect outfit for the perfect review 😻
99%. Its a Belgian patch, for Maiden it would have to be a union jack.
@@aenorist2431 Belgian patch, 99% Dutch jacket
It's burning my eyes out. A belgian flag on a Dutch/Brittish BDU. As a Belgian it is blasphemous to me.
@@bernarddeboeck8405 I am Dutch guess how i feel?
(Zero f*cks are given...) all i think is ''looks good on her''
@@NewSkoolCaveman i won't disagree with the fact that it looks good on her !
I was at this show in 2001, in Rio de Janeiro. It was the best show of my life. Up the Irons!
I think “Blood Brothers” from the same show would be a great reaction. If you haven’t already.
So adorable when you get excited by the energy of the music.
2:01 That's the cutest "heh" i ever heard
I appreciate the fact that you as an young individual appreciate the music from our time.
Bruce when joined Iron Maiden was in the position to be offered a spot on the UK Olympic fencing team.... and thing still dose fence
That man just does everything, some people are just so amazingly talented it’s unfair
Is there anything Bruce can't do? Next you'll tell me he studied neurosurgery.
