He sings it "in pure phonetic version" for copyright issues. He is not at all drunk to the point ... but do you really believe that after 35 years he has completely forgotten the lyrics of the song?
@@LeLapinAgile OMG you are so RIGHT!! This was rt before Dennis Wilcock sued them and u notice on the slow part he's very clear.... I'm pretty sure he rewrote those lyrics because the clip I heard with Dennis from '77 has totally different lyrics! I wonder if he knew what was about to go down.... ;-)
They don't match. When I hear a song for the first time, I often misunderstand the lyrics. It's like pareidolia : you think you hear/see things that seem familiar. There's been plenty of vids mocking the phenomenon. Anyways : I don't get the impression he was drunk, he just couldn't be buvvered. And rightfully so.
I don't know why, despite Paul's drunken vocals, I still can't help but love this. The band he's with is so good at playing, and his vocals.... yeah they suck hahaha. Although I love Iron Maiden and Bruce Dickinson, I couldn't have the Killers album any other way without early 80s Paul Di Anno singing on it.
I’d heard Iron Maiden had taken Paul to court in order to stop him singing Iron Maiden songs. The judge sided with Paul as this was not considered singing😂
Ca m'a foutu un choc d'apprendre son décès aujourd'hui . R.I.P Paul . Merci merci et encore merci pour ces 2 albums incroyables qui me font encore vibrer 45 ans après
I think were missing one key point here - despite all the years that have passed since the first 2 Maiden albums, and despite the fact that he's abused his body for all of those years, and despite the fact that he's clearly pissed here - his voice still sounds fucking great!!!!
James from Metallica got drunk and sang fine, Lemmy got drunk and sang fine, Dave from Megadeth sang fine, its not that hes drunk hes just speaking diannish.
Make no mistake iron maiden was going to be a punk metal band originally! They became better and worthy of being a heavy metal band later. Bruce was a much better fill in for that. Paul's earlier solo stuff from 93 and battlezone was dope as shit.
To be fair, they took advantage of him being so completely addicted that they could get him angry enough to leave and agree not having any royalty rights, even for the things he did with them. He was a douche and blew it all, sure, but he would probably have fared better if they would have treated him ok after the breakup. I mean, the guy had to go on welfare while to albums get repressed every other month and sold in the thousands.
Thought this, he remembers a larger proportion of lyrics for the middle section too (that is: more than ¼ of the lyrics this time, lol). I reckon that breakdown might be one of his fonder parts
Before and after pictures of Di'Anno are enough to get me motivated into taking better care of myself. It's really hard to believe that is the same person.
He was supposed to be much more successful, much more brilliant, much more famous, richer and with much more acknowledgment and respect. Due to his drug abuse, alcohol abuse, carelessness, sloppiness and a bit of ignorance, He threw everything out. That’s just my opinion.
Little judgement there ...never judge a man's walk ...you know nothing...maybe money and fame wasn't for him also you don't know anything he might of been dealing with at the time jackass
I think that in addition to being completely drunk and stoned on everything, having his brain muddy from all the shit he's taken, he doesn't remember a damn thing about the words, so he mumbles at random ... withdrew Paul you've become a caricature of yourself.
I was expecting a lot worse. I'd take this over Vince Neil any day. The odd thing about it, he can very clearly sing still. There's a lot of strength in that voice. Amazing considering what he's done to himself.
as hardcore maiden fans know back in the day paul had a great voice and was very suited to maiden, lets not forget he sang maidens anthem phantom of the opera. i wont go into his departure of the band but it's no wonder he is how he is today after seeing the success maiden have had. i saw maiden back in 82 burr on drums in derby! \m/ up the irons \m/
Well, now that Maiden are being sued over the lyrics to Charlotte by Dennis Wilcock, Bruce is going to have to start singing the song exactly like this live as he won't be able to sing the actual lyrics due to rights issues. :/
Those subtitles were fucking genius! "Many other guitar notes" outstanding work. Though on a side note, this is why I have a 2 beer limit before performing. I don't think it's fair to people who have paid to see a band, to get this kind of performance.
hhahahahahahaha i had to pause this video half way through cos i couldnt see through my tears of laughter. those subtitles are literally hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Meanwhile the Rest of the Original Band With Bruce Dickinson Releases one of their best albums ever. This is a sad sight Paul Di'anno was fantastic on the first two cd`s
Right there, that is the reason he's not in Maiden anymore and why the band would never be as big as it is now with Paul. I respect him for what he acomplished with Maiden, but everything else is just too sad to me.
To me he was the best singer yeah it might not look like it in this clip this footage but to me his voice is one of the best when he sang something he did it with good heaviness
Paul's delivery of lyric's were never rushed ! Conveyed with great feel and emotion ! Not so true with those, or (He) who followed ! I only speak the Truth ! Then came such great emotion as with "Children of the Damned" and "Hallowed Be Thy Name " ! Some of which was still rushed ! Damn you for causing me to dissect the vocal history of Maiden !
Well that is largely due to the fact that early Maiden is A LOT better than 90s Maiden even if Blaze is a better singer. X Factor and Virtual XI being mediocre is not Blaze's fault as he didn't write the songs or arrangements, he just sang what he was given.

Rip Paul 🙏 ty for your service to the metal gods 😢
He looks like he just got home from his job of changing oil and remembered he had band practice.
lol
When he says "you know the words to this" it was actually a question for help cuz obviously he doesnt.
Gerald King hahaha
Ha ha thought the same...
He sings it "in pure phonetic version" for copyright issues. He is not at all drunk to the point ... but do you really believe that after 35 years he has completely forgotten the lyrics of the song?

Love how the onscreen lyrics perfectly match Di Anno's nonsensical mumbling. Brilliant.
Penguin?🐧😂😂😂 He can't sing " Hoarrr"
I loved Di'anno Iron Maiden, I would never laugh at there music, but your comment was funny and true 😂
They don't match. When I hear a song for the first time, I often misunderstand the lyrics. It's like pareidolia : you think you hear/see things that seem familiar. There's been plenty of vids mocking the phenomenon. Anyways : I don't get the impression he was drunk, he just couldn't be buvvered. And rightfully so.
I am crying with laughter at the subtitles.
Me too LOL
I don't know why, despite Paul's drunken vocals, I still can't help but love this. The band he's with is so good at playing, and his vocals.... yeah they suck hahaha. Although I love Iron Maiden and Bruce Dickinson, I couldn't have the Killers album any other way without early 80s Paul Di Anno singing on it.
His drunken lyrics kind of add something.
For sure I like even his drunken performance 😂🤘🏻

Ikr
"numerous finger clicks" was the best lyrics of this song. XD
finger clicking rock n roll haha
Many guitar notes.
hahahahahahaha, I fucking love the subtitles.
+Anki Hansen lol take me to beth lol
Peter Criss didn't like that!
CHAAAAARRRRLAAAYYY
He sucks! hes playing night clubs... and Bruce is still selling out Stadiums!!!
@@5tonyvvvv Who cares? He did two of the best Iron Maiden albums, Bruce can't replicate such rawness and badassery from those works!
I think were missing one key point here - despite all the years that have passed since the first 2 Maiden albums, and despite the fact that he's abused his body for all of those years, and despite the fact that he's clearly pissed here - his voice still sounds fucking great!!!!
Absolutely 💥🤘🏼 band sucked ,
absolutely fucking not lol
Are you kidding?he sucks.
he has the voice of a janitor behing fucked in the ass by a dunkey ! CHarl eyyy hooo wath the faaaayy !!
What exactly are you hearing ?
I saw paul dianno live at 2014 at Sweden rock festival and he was fantastic
This video was one of the funniest things I've ever seen!
!!
" UR TACO IS BARAHAHohbabbab...." hahahahahaah lmfao!
Damn, haha. He's singing in Drunklish.
James from Metallica got drunk and sang fine, Lemmy got drunk and sang fine, Dave from Megadeth sang fine, its not that hes drunk hes just speaking diannish.
Copyright thing as a guy said? Might be.
My favorite part is when Paul asks the crowd if they know the words. Yes Paul, we know them. The better question is, do you?
RIP, both an amazing vocalist in his prime and a comedy genius in this.
I'm going to pretend I never saw this. First two maiden albums have a special place in my heart
That's why he's not in Iron Maiden today.
Or maybe he got drunk because he got kicked out from Iron Maiden lol
are you Serious ?
U serious? 1 video that someone has parodied to take the p? Hivocals beat Bruce hands down. Omg
His vocals don't beat anyone "hands down"... and It's not one video, more like all of them, even official live releases.
Make no mistake iron maiden was going to be a punk metal band originally! They became better and worthy of being a heavy metal band later. Bruce was a much better fill in for that. Paul's earlier solo stuff from 93 and battlezone was dope as shit.
In that middle section you can hear the shades of his talent still in there somewhere. Such a shame to see how he blew it away.
Exactly what I was thinking.
To be fair, they took advantage of him being so completely addicted that they could get him angry enough to leave and agree not having any royalty rights, even for the things he did with them. He was a douche and blew it all, sure, but he would probably have fared better if they would have treated him ok after the breakup. I mean, the guy had to go on welfare while to albums get repressed every other month and sold in the thousands.
@@gnoe4815 Nah.
Thought this, he remembers a larger proportion of lyrics for the middle section too (that is: more than ¼ of the lyrics this time, lol). I reckon that breakdown might be one of his fonder parts
@@gnoe4815 Nah. Paul has actually said that Maiden were right to fire him.
I'm happy to see how Di' Anno has not stagnated and continues to experiment in his singing, now interpreting the Maiden classics in the sheep style
2:34 Paul sounds here like Bruce a bit
what i'm gonna doaaaaaahhhh
was gonna make fun of you for this comment but you are actually right. :D
:D
You're right. He does.
Yeah!!!!!!!
The line from 1:11 had me in stitches. Not sure if I'm projecting but I'm sure the bloke with the short hair is trying no to laugh.🤣
Drunk or not.. He is still a legendary lead vocalist! I absolutely love his vocals off the first two IM albums!!! Remember Tomorrow...
hardly legendary
So sad when you see him back in 1981 and now
😂😂😂😂😂
For a second I thought this was going to be serious, until I saw those subtitles
the subtitles are priceless. all good, clean fun.
This is some of the funniest shit I have ever seen. "Chalaaa!"
Before and after pictures of Di'Anno are enough to get me motivated into taking better care of myself. It's really hard to believe that is the same person.
"a penguin evray ride in blahhh....youknowwhaimsayum"
At that point I fell off my chair laughing so hard!
Thanks for the video and the laugh!
When I read "Paul is the best in Iron Maiden"... wait a second, just take a look at this ! Love the subtibles
Many guitar notes..legend😎
Paul DiAnno Iron Maiden is my favorite, still. He was rock and roll to the max.
Don't do drugs, kiddies
"URRR TACO IS BRUHAHAHAHA...."......lolol
ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!!!
lol - I need to have this vid on hand at ALL times.
I sure hope thats sarcasm which im 70% sure it is
He was supposed to be much more successful, much more brilliant, much more famous, richer and with much more acknowledgment and respect. Due to his drug abuse, alcohol abuse, carelessness, sloppiness and a bit of ignorance, He threw everything out.
That’s just my opinion.
Funny how all them bad work, just add alcohol and drugs and they soon follow
You're right bro...
Maybe if maiden had a similar route to diamond head we'd have a non-drunk paul di'anno
No doubt
Little judgement there ...never judge a man's walk ...you know nothing...maybe money and fame wasn't for him also you don't know anything he might of been dealing with at the time jackass
Very tight band! They sound really good!
Paul got enunciation's lessons from Vince Neil...
I think that in addition to being completely drunk and stoned on everything, having his brain muddy from all the shit he's taken, he doesn't remember a damn thing about the words, so he mumbles at random ... withdrew Paul you've become a caricature of yourself.
I tink his vocals very still very fine at the gig, and the lyrics, no - not forgotten, no drunken, it is just his kind of humour
the guitar player at 3.30 looks pretty chilled about the situation and gives paul the whatever look lol
Scott Davey funny 😂😂😂
His highs are actually quite awesome!
Iron Maiden wouldn't be anywhere near they are today without Paul. They all know it and I'm happy to know that they're still in good terms
I was expecting a lot worse. I'd take this over Vince Neil any day. The odd thing about it, he can very clearly sing still. There's a lot of strength in that voice. Amazing considering what he's done to himself.
Charlie the harley
Oh, this a song about a motorcycle...
Too accurately funny! 😂😂😂
@@AJMIckna2010 Everyone gets a ride on Charlie.

"You know the words to this?" Well, sure as fuck does not lol
The best thing i have seen today:'D
Brings misheard lyrics to a whole new level.
Been singing the same ten songs or so for nearly forty years
Excelent job with the "subtitles"
Well, now that Maiden are being sued over the lyrics to Charlotte by Dennis Wilcock, Bruce is going to have to start singing the song exactly like this live as he won't be able to sing the actual lyrics due to rights issues. :/
Paul Di'anno
The Beast
In all his drunk glory
Those subtitles were fucking genius! "Many other guitar notes" outstanding work. Though on a side note, this is why I have a 2 beer limit before performing. I don't think it's fair to people who have paid to see a band, to get this kind of performance.
To be honest he’s not able to sing anymore, but I love this guy.. he’s not corrupted, he’s what R’n’r should be:pure heart. Long live Paul!
Long live the legend of Paul Di'anno!!!
patetico lui e patetico tu
Comedy legend.
Hey but in terms of his voice it's actually quite good!
That and the band backing him is not bad either.
Well when You DON'T Sing for over 35 years-you SHOULD have Some Singing Left in Your Vocal Chords.
Agree. He does sound good
I don't think so...
Ciekawe czy jeszcze do nas zawita.
Must have been free beer all night for this crowd
What a legend! Great video, laughed my ass off!
Because that's exactly what it is - a joke.
Haha haha! Those subtitles are hilarious!
Numerous finger clicks! Hahahahahaha
darksynbios .I. MANY OTHER GUITAR NOTES
LOL @ subs. Can't begin to imagine how long you must have spent unraveling them. A job well done :D
I'LL KISS YOUR BACON...AAAAAAAAA! Greatest line ever!
NOt b4 he ears it!!😂😂🥓
So glad you put up the lyrics, I'll know what to shout at the next Maiden show 😆👍
hhahahahahahaha i had to pause this video half way through cos i couldnt see through my tears of laughter. those subtitles are literally hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Oh my God this is hilarious!
The captions are great!
damn, always liked him. if he could have only kept his shit together
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! Great subtitles!

Meanwhile the Rest of the Original Band With Bruce Dickinson Releases one of their best albums ever.
This is a sad sight Paul Di'anno was fantastic on the first two cd`s
The Song Empire of the Clouds is Amazing. Really interesting and unusual. And its really long without being boring.
+Muck if that's all your brain can process
totally agree with you some people are just stuck in that era if eternity to empire the whole album is awesome
albums, not cd's
I don't think so, that album is boring
WHAT A EXCELENT SINGER IS DIANNO!
Right there, that is the reason he's not in Maiden anymore and why the band would never be as big as it is now with Paul. I respect him for what he acomplished with Maiden, but everything else is just too sad to me.
One of the reasons WHY Maiden is the greatest act today. Bruce delivers!
"A penguin evray ride in blahh" Paul di Anno
I think he still sounds great,really great. I don't think he deserves to be made fun of.
I've been searching for this for so long.
This is the best video on TH-cam.
Thank the good lord for Bruce Dickinson
and your big mouth !!! strong to understand for you... sorry...!!!
no
That classic metal show brought me here. Chaaarrlaaaayy!!
They did my boi dirty here
Subtitles are absolutely hilarious!
He says "Do you know the words to this?" I was Thinking the same thing about him.
After seeing Iron Maiden at the Ruskin Arms when it all began so,so long ago..... it saddens me to see this video. :(
This is impressive - it's good they caught Paul on a good night. You can actually understand a few words he is belching up. BTW - impressive stage!
thanks, not a native speaker, i now have a lyrics sheet for my cover band
To me he was the best singer yeah it might not look like it in this clip this footage but to me his voice is one of the best when he sang something he did it with good heaviness
LOOOL this is epic
I wonder what the band are thinking?... They've pretty much nailed their parts. Can't be fun...
Laugh all you want. I would have a good time at that gig, getting drunk and banging my head
this video just make my day much better :)
the captions are everything
Holy shit, this is hilarious
Awesome! Thanks for uploading!
"thank you very much..[ despite all]".... yes..despite all...
Paul's delivery of lyric's were never rushed ! Conveyed with great feel and emotion ! Not so true with those, or (He) who followed ! I only speak the Truth ! Then came such great emotion as with "Children of the Damned" and "Hallowed Be Thy Name " ! Some of which was still rushed ! Damn you for causing me to dissect the vocal history of Maiden !
Pure GOD! Paul Di'anno i love you so much!
People generally like Paul's Maiden more than they do Blaze's Maiden, but Blaze is doing A LOT better now than Paul is.
Well that is largely due to the fact that early Maiden is A LOT better than 90s Maiden even if Blaze is a better singer. X Factor and Virtual XI being mediocre is not Blaze's fault as he didn't write the songs or arrangements, he just sang what he was given.
Only High Professional Singer like Paul with Years of Singing Bihind His Back Can Allow Improvise with a Vocal and joking like this ..
That was awesome lmao
3:33 You can hear Rob Halford singing.
Screaming! SCREAMING FOR VENGEANCE!
Exactly! Screaming for drunkenness! ;)
