@@andrewvanhalen1984 or you could listen to his albums or a show in his solo career. I am sorry that after Maiden his voice became much stronger, more emotional.
@@andrewvanhalen1984 lol... Yeah there is... Ever heard of Raphael Mendes??!?.... Look it up... Of course there is many singers that could sing these tunes... Blaze isnt One of them
Not in the way Bruce Dickinson sings. It’s just a feel and a vibe. It’s not about precision or technicality. That’s something composers and virtuosos do not understand hence why really none make it. Besides rush? LOL. Most of these guys learn off their inspirations and by playing their instrument til it’s a part of them. They don’t read music and that my dear is what makes Bruce’s singing ONE OF A KIND
The fact that Steve, as a real leader, stood next to his musician and simply personified protection and calmness with his figure speaks of what kind of person he is. And Blaze with his furious look, if this spitting animal had come across him on the street, he would have smashed everything for him
Daniel Milla and why should he be living up to Bruce´s vocals ? Blaze has an incredible voice of his own, the major mistake was that they didn´t drop the tuning to meet his vocal range.....
I completely agree. Blaze is a good singer, but not compared to Dickinson. He sang very well on the songs written for him, but he couldn't sing Bruce's songs.
Have anyone of you seen the whole concert ?? Seriously I think you should, feelings were running high right from the beginning and this is in the end of the concert....Blaze is worthy massive credit and respect, for holding up this long, trying to replace Bruce was NOT an easy thing AT ALL....To me this is only another proof of a missed opportunity....given time he would have shown what an incredible singer he really is..
He sings very nice, but was unfitting for Iron Maiden and that it was quite obvious, even he was surprised to being picked by Harris, I really don't know what the heck was Harris thinking
It's kind of sad watching Blaze being forced to sing songs well out his range, these songs clearly weren't written for his voice. He's a good vocalist, but it just doesn't fit in this song.
Amir Kerberos nobody put a gun to his head, he is shit compared to Bruce and Paul, but most Maiden fans are pussies and will never admit it, too scared to offend
On the contrary, Blaze is a great singer, but he's a baratone whereas Bruce is more of an operatic singer. He was hired on and Steve Harris made the executive decision to try and force him to be Bruce 2.0 but that was simply impossible This was during a time where Steve's ego was out of control
TGX Game Reviews and that was a major mistake, I know what an incredible singer he really is, and I bet Steve regrets it somehow, btw have you heard Maidens official video of Afraid to shoot strangers ? Blaze is singing and he took my breath away !!
I don't blame Blaze here. He was put into a losing situation from the beginning. He was just following orders. I blame Steve for expecting a baritone singer to sing in a completely different pitch.
Bruce is naturally a baritone read his autobiography so is rob Halford and Bruces voice is naturally deeper than blazes the diference was Bruce had a girlfriend when he joined Samson that was also an opera singer who taught him breathing exercises and how to hit the midrange and upper range without straining his voice.
Shows you that they cared for the fans, to even finish the song,even as mad as they were.G&R, just quit during a song, because something was whatever not right..MAIDEN will always be a class act and adhere to their fans
This makes me so sad, why they didn´t drop their tuning will forever be a mystery to me.....I´m totally impressed with Blaze for even trying to reach theese notes that was impossible for him...and I honestly believe that Steve´s regretting this major mistake...
Droping the tuning wouldn't change anything, all that would change is that the songs would sound awkward. He is not a good singer, tuning won't make him better
@@thedawnoftheblackhearts2745 Ofc it would have made it better, at least more comfy for Blaze to deliver a good performance! And he is indeed a very good singer but not operating in the same register as Bruce. In my opinion, when it comes to his voice timbre he is a perfect mixture of Dianno & Dickinson!
Think was because Steve bass and the overall Maiden sound. Many bands from Sabbath to Motley and beyond have been playing a whole step down, but some of those bands had just one guitar, so with more than one guitar and altering the tuning, bass comes somewhat lost/diluted in the mix, something Steve wouldn't allow in HIS band🤷♂️😒
@@thedawnoftheblackhearts2745 He is not a good singer? There's even a song released in Bruce Dickinson era that, during this period, Blaze sang it better than Dickinson: Afraid To Shoot Strangers. Droping the tune would've been an excellent resolution because Blaze was an amazing singer and had a strong voice, but he didn't have the technique to sing very very high like Bruce. It was a matter of vocal technique, Blaze is a baritone and before Iron Maiden, he was singing in Wolsfbane in his own style with his own vocal configurations. Nowadays he actually developed the real technique and he could sing almost any Maiden song very well. But in that time, the Iron Maiden offer was something that he didn't expect it before, so when the offer came, he just had to accept cause he couldn't waste a once in a life chance like this. He just didn't have the time. So, if they droped the tune, he would've been able to reach those high notes more near to his baritone range, and that would've saved the gigs and the tours.
that is my feeling too, he is extraordinary, and far better than di anno, but he was in the wrong band in the wrong time, everybody thinks he is the only responsible for the weak albums, but they don't know Harris, murray, gers and nicko was with lot of problems in that time, and he conposed only a few songs, the better ones. His solo carrer is amazing!
The quesiton is what happened during 1:16 - 2:17, who they looking at? Steve doesn't usually stand this still and focus at someone, and ditch the gallops.
Admiro o Blaze por sua attitude e perseverança, mesmo tendo suas limitações (para algumas músicas do Maiden), pois ele é um excelente vocalista, quem conhece o trabalho dele sabe. Ele não merecia isso de alguns mal educados que ali estavam! Tem o meu respeito, esse grande cara!!! 💪🏼
Mas, venhamos e convenhamos, cara?! Não tinha como ser diferente! Um plateia cheia de jovens malucos pela banda! Pelo Bruce! E vem um cara cantando sem 1 pingo do carisma e da potência do cara?! Não tinha como ser diferente! A culpa não é dele. Apenas o Iron estava o seu front Man!
Verdade, gosto da voz dele e tive o prazer de vê-lo cantar recentemente no Brasil (2017 e 2020), ele é carismático e alem de tudo bom caráter. Pedi para tirar foto e ele foi simpático e atencioso. Nota 10, não merecia essa atitude...

Concordo com você, mas essa formação não podia dar certo assim... se o cara não tem a extensão vocal adequada para cantar no tom original, a culpa também é do S. Harris que não manda mudarem o tom, né? Gosto muito do Blaze, um baita cantor, mas era questão de tempo para dar merda.
@@josemartins8754 não tem nada haver....não fala m...no CHile a galera que fica no gargarejo tem o costume de cuspir nos musicos. kkkkkkk seu comentário é um lixo.
I would argue that the two albums with Blaze are absolutely incredible. X Factor is without a doubt the darkest and most brutal Maiden album.The themes of that album are excellent as well!
Blaze didn't have Bruce's range....but the band wouldn't change the song to a lower key so it would be easier for him to sing. They kept it in the original key.
Very true. Blaze honestly has the range of a defective paper airplane. But when he's in that proper register, he's great. They should've at least dropped the key a half step and slapped some reverb on his vocals.
Ni por Nicko Mcbrain, el no toleraba a blaze, por eso tocaba más rápido a propósito, incluso usando doble pedal y burlas a blaze en las partes donde no tocaba la batería.
It is less a matter of skills than a matter of voice range, guys. Those songs were simply not written for his range. If they had just tuned down the song, he would have sung perfectly. Why they didn't is a mistery for me.
This is is full Octave beyond his range and without tuning down it Wont work but Arry Said no..I partly can understand why he refused, unique sound is one of the reasons why they are so legendary band but then, just drop it and focus on his and Di'Anno material with the couple of less acrobatic Bruces stuff Like Powerslave or Still Life.. would've been great both for Maiden and Blaze era in general! Period!
Blaze bayley es barítono, bruce es tenor. La diferencia vocal es abismal. Es como si pusieras a Marco Antonio Solis cantar Painkiller de Judas Priest..
Completamente cierto, eso es lo que la gente no quiere entender cuando dicen que Blaze es malo. Aquí se nota que fuerza la voz para llegar a cantar parecido a Bruce.
Jose Juan Rivera Reyes te explico Elvis Presley era baritono pero podia llegar a notas altas Blaze es mas limitado tecnicamente Iron Maiden fue demasiado para el
Y pensar que después de ese pollo a Harris es la banda que más veces llena el nacional uno de los mejores públicos del mundo dicho por el mismo y hasta un en vivo grabado aquí, grande Maiden
Painful to watch, why didn´t they drop the tuning to meet the vocal range of Blaze ??? I have the deepest respect for Steve Harris, but in this case he made a major mistake, almost criminal....I know that Blaze has a powerful voice, so why didn´t they ? And in this particular song, feelings really were running high, and not nice feelings, for any of them.....
susanne williamsson blaze has the voice of a dying cat 😻, and if you think Maiden give a shit about " feelings " you are listening to the wrong band, Maiden is for tough ALPHA men that drink vodka get into fights and fuck 5 women per day
susanne williamsson that's because you are a woman, the point is no one forced blaze to be in the band, if he can't sing, it's his problem, he was a bad choice for Maiden
Mark wadd but he´s a terrific singer, there´s so many songs to proove me right, Lord of the Flies, the Edge of Darkness, the Aftermath, the Virus and have you heard Afraid to shoot Strangers with this guy ???
Mark wadd have you ever listened to blaze's solo stuff? Give Silicon Messiah or Tenth dimension a try and you'll see how great blaze is. This song... It's clearly out of range for his powerful baritone voice.
> Listening to Virus "Hey, that's pretty cool" > Listening to Clansman "Also pretty cool" > Listening to Man On The Edge "Another good song! Why is everyone hating on this guy?" > Listening to this "Ugh" > Listening to him singing Hallowed Be Thy Name live "Holy shit this is terrible"
This really sets your mood swinging, Blaze did the best he could, trying to meet theese high notes he possibly couldn´t reach, the audience showing their anger and disrespect, mainly towards Steve Harris and him, and Janick and Dave trying to smoothe down all this anger and bad feelings.....and they did get on with the song, thats what it means to be playing, working together so closeley. I´ll never understand why they didn´t drop their tuning to meet his fantastic voice....
As a fan and writter of the upcoming book about Blaze era in Maiden, I can confirm that Arry was aware of his weakneses but he was afraid of the reaction of the fans! He Said that Maiden fans knows Maiden Sound and If they tuned down, everything would've been even worse..a big mistake.
@@matejukic791 I respect your opinion but I am sorry, I can't ever agree..... If it would have been anything Harry was this afraid of, howcome so incredibly much of the Blaze era still is obvious? We still, after all this time, hear echoes, or even more than echoes of this so called dark era, which to me is and always will be a Golden era....? To even try to explain that...... are you sure that you are up to that challenge?
@@susannewilliamsson8339 For my book, many fans spoke to me who directly spoke with Harris and with the rest of the members so I think I am more than up for that task..but I think you missunderstud me..I Said Arry refused to tune down cause he was afraid of the reaction of the fans and for me that was big mistake, although I can understand his point of view at the time..but what I cant understand is keeping most challenging material from Bruce era under that terms..but if they still wanted to play most challenging material from Bruce, they had to tune down, at least half a step as Blaze asked and that change would've put stuff Like 2MtM, Clairvoyant and The Evil that Men Do Within his range and he would've been allowed to hit all high notes of the songs Like The Trooper, Hallowed or TNOTB in scream and majority of the fans would not notice that change in their sound..read carefully dear what I wrote! ;)
@@matejukic791 you are correct, I misunderstood your point..... I am hoping that you will forgive me and maybe, just maybe, our views are not so different after all.....
@@susannewilliamsson8339 Its ok..I am big fan of Blaze Bayley Carrer, he is my hero since I was Little kid and his era in Maiden is something very meaningfull to me! And the book I am writting is something for him, in the highest possible hope this Will stop massive level of negativity towards someone who gave everything he had for our beloved band! And I belive things would've been completely different with the different aproach.. Better setlist choice and by that I mean more Di'Anno material with the couple of less acrobatic Bruces stuff as a support Like Afraid to Shoot Strangers,Fear of the Dark, Heaven Can Wait, Powerslave and Still Life would've solved everything, Blaze would've been allowed to sing Within his natural range and there is no question, although it would've been Weird at first without classics Like Hallowed or The Trooper Blaze would've been accepted much better by the fans! :)
Blaze Bayley is a good singer but has a deep baritone/bass voice not the tenor Bruce has so he struggled to sing songs like this. Check out his solo work it's good, I recommend the track "Escape Velocity".
I´ve seen this a zillion times, and I still don´t understand why you think this guy´s crap. I love the Maiden, their music and mindblowing lyrics, but to be honest I´ve actually become a Blaze fan aswell.....Maybe he couldn´t sing like you expected in those higher pitched songs, but he´s a really brilliant singer......Anyway, he had a tremendous impact to their music, and we still hear echos of this era in their new material, so all I can say is BRAVO.....
Blaze has always sounded like a tone deaf pub rock singer. Barely fit for local battle of the bands contests, let alone a world class act like Maiden. They could've chosen Russ North (ex Cloven Hoof) as a replacement for Bruce but instead went with this clown. The result of that can be seen in videos such as this one.
No, if you actually watch other songs from the show, Chile absolutely loved Blaze and Maiden. It was a dispute between a few fans and Blaze/Steve, something that happens rather frequently for big bands.
Regardless of whatever the popular opinion, personally I think Blaze is a great vocalist, his 2 albums with Maiden kick ass. I have a ton of respect for this dude for keeping at it during his years with the band despite how negative a lot of people were.
Tordsworld I completely agree and I´m totally impressed with him for even trying....I´ve seen almost everything with Blaze available on TH-cam and especially the show : The night that will not die, it´s just as Blaze says " absolutely fucking magnificent "..
Bruce is a panther!! Right at the lip of the stage, shoulder to shoulder on united stance! And the professionals that they are, the finished the song before pouncing!!
Resulta increible como Steve Harris no previó que no solamente tenía que cantar temas de los discos con Blaze sino que en vivo tenía que cantar los clasicos de la banda. Y la verdad la pasaba bastante mal
Tirar escupos en los recitales en Chile se remonta a una mala costumbre de principios de los 80, muy larga por lo menos de contar, (pero todo metalero Chileno sabe el origen y el porquè) viniese quien viniese los llenaban a escupos, lamentablemente ni la doncella se salvò. Afortunadamente habia mucho respeto y los que hicieron eso fueron unos pocos......Afortunadamente y como sale en el video les sacaron cresta y media (golperon y sacaron a patadas)...Se los digo por que yo fui a ese recital. Up the irons....
Le da color el mono ql de Bayley, si es un pollo la wea no mas. Por otra parte, me parece sumamente irresponsable encarar de esa forma a un wn del público en un recital lleno de metaleros unineuronales, podrían haber matado al pobre wn sindicado como el q tiro el pollo, no siendo necesario y probablemente él....a Mike Patton lo llenaban a pollos y pa q decir Ozzy q el mismo se paraba en el escenario para q lo tapizaran a pollos...Bayley ql no tenis niun brillo, y la Srta., de Harris se puede meter el bajo x la raja....
Blaze had the impossible job, not just in vocal range but even in dealing with idiots in the crowd like this. Bruce would have simply just dealt with this situation in seconds. But this one idiot encouraged Steve to stand right next to his singer (loyally) and totally railroaded the song. In the nicest possible way (I love maiden and Blaze) but as an armchair pundit years later, this video really demonstrates all of the variables that maiden hadn’t considered when choosing Blaze. Much love to Blaze though, I don’t know if anybody else who could have done so well with the deck of cards he was handed. And to this day, he carries himself as a great human being. Respect doesn’t even describe the admiration that I have for Blaze and his character, and talent. And unsung true hero.
Aquí es como cuando Dio cantaba canciones de Ozzy, no importa la voz, si es mejor o no, la voz original siempre será parte de la emoción de la canción. P.D. Blaze no es malo, simplemente no es Bruce :v
Angel guzman estas cosas no hubieran pasado con Michael Kiske en la voz, de acuerdo Blaze no es mal cantante pero no le quedan para nada estas canciones
Blaze maybe could've done this better if that fucker in the front row didn't spit in Steve's face. Look at Blaze and look at Steve, they just wanted the fucking song to be over with. That death glare in Steve's eyes though...
I actually am a little surprised that one, or even both, of these guys didn't launch into the crowd after this spitter! I'm waitin' & I'm watchin', and I'm thinkin', "OK, he's gonna dive off the stage after this douche'...right....now... no ....Now!..... no....." And then Steve threw his Axe on the floor, and I'm all, like, "Oh shit!, Here we go!" But, no. Yeah, I am a bit surprised. I know if I gotta take my Bass off & toss it to the ground like that at the end of a song, it is because someone is gonna get their ass handed to them in little pieces! I would be fukkin' somebody's stupid ass up!
El hizo todo lo que pudo vocalmente y demás, pero los fans no lo aceptaron, los discos que hizo no eran malos de hecho me gustan mas que los discos que hizo Maiden con Paul D'Anno sobre todo el X Factor con esa atmósfera oscura. Virtual XI es mas futurístico aunque hay temas que son monótonos, en directo si reconozco que carecía de la esencia front man de Dickinson. Ví algunos conciertos de esa época y solo se limitaba a cantar, no transmitía ese mega carisma de Dickinson...
The dark aera of maiden, although they had one good record with Blaze! I love the X-Factor! Bad time for them, but it was good for the fans i think! If they had a good replacement for Dickinson, there probably wouldn't be brave new world, matter of life and death or book of souls and he and adrian would have never rejoined the band! Maybe they would have had some other good albums, but they wouldn't have these awesome tours with their own airplane! So i'm glad that smith and dickinson returned....
I’ve got a lot of respect for Steve but the fact he wouldn’t tune down these songs for Blaze will always put him down ever so slightly in my estimation. He has history with not quite grasping the difficulties of singing considering during the 80s he dismissed Bruce’s voice starting to go due to being over worked.
Dave Murray solo!!! GOD-Like. Epic! 😍😍 Those deathstares tell a lot. But they play the song. Pros. Huge respect. But yeah, Di Anno songs are needed more. Trooper is about solos amd guitars. So it's ok for Blaze vocals. If you see someone spitting etc. Make sure that HE/she leaves the venue a.s.a.p. My respects for not stopping the song. Madness after is more than fine. Yeah, he's not Dickinson. But it's not his fault that ex-singer aborted the band. Posers leave the scene! Stay away. Blaze got so much shit for nothing... Harris picked wrong setlist for him. This tour and the next. Heaven Can Wait is fine. Clairvoyant + Evil That Men Do NOT! Harris wtf?!? He's range is where? Anti-professional. And he gets spitted...like every show? 90% of shows? Bootleg data is not positive about that. Here it's so disgusting. Posers, support or leave. Damn. Bayley's solo until 2010 was very enjoyable. For me, positive+++!
Podrían haber bajado la afinación, medio tono por lo menos.... No se tratar de ayudar a blaze un poco... Su registro no es el de bruce, muy difícil para el llegar a esas notas.... Eso también es culpa de la banda.... En vez de ayudar al vocal, le hicieron todo mas dificil.....🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
Another possible suggestion for the crowd being pissed off was because this was Maiden's first visit to Chile, and that Bruce wasn't singing for the show. You must remember people that Maiden tried to visit Chile back in '92 when Bruce was still in the band, but the Catholic Church wouldn't allow it, and fans didn't get what they wanted. Now here's Maiden in '96, and people are pissed that it's not Bruce.
Can anyone confirm what the arguments about? Spitting? Steves holding his neck at the end? Watched this a couple of times going back through Maiden vids and cant get it.
Tinha uma lhama chilena cuspideira no show, que desrespeito... o Blaze estava com sangue nos olhos mas encarou o desafio de tentar levar a música no tom . Bravo!
Tell me why he should have been a " Bruce clone "...he wasn´t, and should never been expected to be...I´m totally impressed by this guy for even trying to sing in their original key, and I´m very disappointed by the ones that don´t understand the tuning issues..Honestly he did the best he could, and we should be grateful to him for taking the challenge ...Give the guy the credit he deserves and not all theese crappy comments .....
Whatever the problem was, Blaze and Steve were both meanmugging someone up front from the first verse onward... Many years later, we get that Iron Maiden was attempting to move on without Bruce or even a Bruce imitator, but for a song like The Trooper that's exactly what you need.
Blaze es un extraordinario cantante, los discos que él sacó con la banda, suenan extraordinarios, pero no se escuchaba bien con las canciones de Bruce, siempre me pregunté por qué no afinaron medio tono abajo, o incluso hasta en D estándard, para las actuaciones en vivo, con su voz hubieran sonado excelente las canciones que cantó Bruce, un tono o semitono más abajo.
Los discos que sacaron en la época con Blaze, fueron producidos por Steve Harris, quien se encargó de la mezcla en sus estudios, y por su inexperiencia, no se permiten apreciar tanto a las canciones, no son malas. El productor anterior se retiró después de trabajar en el Fear Of The Dark.
I hope this is one of Steve’s biggest regrets. He wanted to go for someone who has a different voice than Bruce I get that but goddamn it’s like he forgot that his new singer is gonna have to tour with them. He should’ve downtuned the Bruce songs if he was gonna have blaze sing them because blaze is a very good singer, but he doesn’t have as wide of a range
All these comments on the vocal range of Blaze.... to be fair he was being pelted with coins throughout this performance yet carried on to finish the song!
He can't sing, and he has an ugly timber in his voice. He should've walked off the stage long before The Trooper came along. What an hilarious performance, and how unprofessional it is. No wonder the guy in the audience were a dick, just listen yourself! That guy actually paid to watch this shit!
@@rabarebra yeah but the rest of the band were out of tune. They should have tuned to Blaze's timbre then it would have sounded fine. That's what Wolfsbane used to do and it worked out fine. The guys in Iron Maiden should have realised that's what they needed to do. I would have expected better from professional musicians but then I guess Maiden are no Wolfsbane.
@@rabarebra I've literally had my ears drained 2 weeks ago and they're better than ever. I know what I'm listening to. I'm strictly professional which is why I'm qualified to make the assessment I did. I have a very good ear for these things which why I hold several qualifications with the Chartered Institute of Musicians. I wouldn't be so into rock'n'roll if I didn't know what I was talking about.
@@rabarebra what the hell are you talking about anyway? I thought we were talking about wood. What the hell is timbre? In your opening comment you mentioned 'timber' and I was commenting on that before I made a typo. I don't know what timbre is. You're crazy. I like you... but you're crazy
I don't know who I'd be more afraid of if I was the guy who spit at them. Blaze looks pretty pissed, but Steve looks fucking murderous just standing there glaring. Like he's gonna chuck his bass at the guy as soon as he gets eye contact.
La verdad es que todos estaban demasiado molestos por lo que sucedió, y no quisieron parar la canción pero la tocaron sin ganas. Por eso no hubo sentimiento en los solos
I loved covering these songs. I grew up covering maiden and king diamond. Honestly I could have done better. But I practiced singing to Bruce. Diamond, priest and kiske.
Even tho he didn't do the Bruce sounds good live I've actually went back.to both blaze.maiden albums.and my.opinion o. Them.has changed big time they have some amazing moments
BRAVO BRAVISIMO ESO DEMUSTRA LA CLASE DE GENTE Y DE PERSONAS QUE SON ESTOS CHILENOS ROTOS ESTA ES SU CULTURA EL CHIL,ENO EN TODO SU EXPLENDOR AGREDIENDO Y ESCUPIENDO A IRON MAIDEN CONCIERTO 1996

But in that time, the Iron Maiden offer was something that he didn't expect it before, so when the offer came, he just had to accept cause he couldn't waste a once in a life chance like this. He just didn't have the time. So, if they droped the tune, he would've been able to reach those high notes more near to his baritone range, and that would've saved the gigs and the tours.
felt sorry for him..he tried his best..he's great but Bruce is from another world...
that is my feeling too, he is extraordinary, and far better than di anno, but he was in the wrong band in the wrong time, everybody thinks he is the only responsible for the weak albums, but they don't know Harris, murray, gers and nicko was with lot of problems in that time, and he conposed only a few songs, the better ones. His solo carrer is amazing!
@@1998alexssander26 he is not better than dianno that's for sure
They could've gotten the greatest vocalist of all time, and they chose Bayley. What a disaster.
@@zsjb_ diff singers ... But Bruce was THE man....
@@vedicmetalhead1029 I don't know what I meant by my comment because I always preferred Bruce over Paul 😂. I think I was referring to blaze
Steve Harris = the best heavy metal bassist of all time
I agree.
Easily...
The quesiton is what happened during 1:16 - 2:17, who they looking at? Steve doesn't usually stand this still and focus at someone, and ditch the gallops.
He'd be even better if he learnt how to play with a pick, the lazy sod 😅😍
Over Steve DiGorgio?.
Admiro o Blaze por sua attitude e perseverança, mesmo tendo suas limitações (para algumas músicas do Maiden), pois ele é um excelente vocalista, quem conhece o trabalho dele sabe.
Ele não merecia isso de alguns mal educados que ali estavam!
Tem o meu respeito, esse grande cara!!! 💪🏼
Mas, venhamos e convenhamos, cara?! Não tinha como ser diferente! Um plateia cheia de jovens malucos pela banda! Pelo Bruce! E vem um cara cantando sem 1 pingo do carisma e da potência do cara?! Não tinha como ser diferente! A culpa não é dele. Apenas o Iron estava o seu front Man!
Verdade, gosto da voz dele e tive o prazer de vê-lo cantar recentemente no Brasil (2017 e 2020), ele é carismático e alem de tudo bom caráter. Pedi para tirar foto e ele foi simpático e atencioso. Nota 10, não merecia essa atitude...

Concordo com você, mas essa formação não podia dar certo assim...
se o cara não tem a extensão vocal adequada para cantar no tom original, a culpa também é do S. Harris que não manda mudarem o tom, né? Gosto muito do Blaze, um baita cantor, mas era questão de tempo para dar merda.
@@josemartins8754 não tem nada haver....não fala m...no CHile a galera que fica no gargarejo tem o costume de cuspir nos musicos. kkkkkkk seu comentário é um lixo.
I would argue that the two albums with Blaze are absolutely incredible. X Factor is without a doubt the darkest and most brutal Maiden album.The themes of that album are excellent as well!
I totally agree with you.

I agree! Especially "Lord of the Flies"!
@@blackenedmagic888 THE SOLO💪💪
Blaze didn't have Bruce's range....but the band wouldn't change the song to a lower key so it would be easier for him to sing. They kept it in the original key.
Very true. Blaze honestly has the range of a defective paper airplane. But when he's in that proper register, he's great. They should've at least dropped the key a half step and slapped some reverb on his vocals.
@@prsenthusiast262 Range? He doesn't even have a good timber in his voice. It just dreadful to hear his voice.
What do u mean, to play it at drop d? It would sound like linkin park
@@thedawnoftheblackhearts2745 Drop D is a different guitar tuning, not a different key.
@@bossfan49 yes u are right, but all maiden songs are in standard tuning, its difficult to imagine hallowed be thy name in drop D...
I’ll never understand why they didn’t just play D’ianno era songs with Blaze. Why force him to sing songs that his voice isn’t made for?
Probably because fans want to hear the "classics" those are the ones that came during the Bruce era.
@@mykeday That's all dumbass fans ever go to concerts to hear and why classic bands are so scared to mix the setlist up.
They could've just downtuned
@@TerminatorZXY True,
Even tuning down wouldn't really change the fact that his voice just wasn't well suited for Maiden. Is what it is.
Steve looked scarier than Blaze... Did anyone see him staring right at that person in the crowd, while the song was going on???
Someone was being a dick or something.
@@rjm_17 Why do you think that someone were being a dick?
I know man I saw that.
@@rabarebra someone spit on Steve I believe and Blaze saw this also. This why both of them were staring down at the crowd.

What did the fan do to blaze bayley to make him furious
@@cristianperez784 A dumb and childish fan who spitted out to Blaze, that made Bailey, Steve Harris and Janick Gers got angry.
@@cristianperez784 lo escupió, eso hizo
Ni por Nicko Mcbrain, el no toleraba a blaze, por eso tocaba más rápido a propósito, incluso usando doble pedal y burlas a blaze en las partes donde no tocaba la batería.
It is less a matter of skills than a matter of voice range, guys. Those songs were simply not written for his range. If they had just tuned down the song, he would have sung perfectly. Why they didn't is a mistery for me.
Rocker Volt you´r right, a major mistake on their part. I know what a brilliant singer Blaze really is.....
This is is full Octave beyond his range and without tuning down it Wont work but Arry Said no..I partly can understand why he refused, unique sound is one of the reasons why they are so legendary band but then, just drop it and focus on his and Di'Anno material with the couple of less acrobatic Bruces stuff Like Powerslave or Still Life.. would've been great both for Maiden and Blaze era in general! Period!
Blaze bayley es barítono, bruce es tenor. La diferencia vocal es abismal.
Es como si pusieras a Marco Antonio Solis cantar Painkiller de Judas Priest..
Como poner a Barry White cantar Painkiller xD Esa diferencia es aún más abismal.
Completamente cierto, eso es lo que la gente no quiere entender cuando dicen que Blaze es malo. Aquí se nota que fuerza la voz para llegar a cantar parecido a Bruce.
Jose Juan Rivera Reyes I just realised I understand Spanish quite good, you guys are spot on.
jajaja c mamut :v
Jose Juan Rivera Reyes te explico Elvis Presley era baritono pero podia llegar a notas altas Blaze es mas limitado tecnicamente Iron Maiden fue demasiado para el
They should have dropped trooper and hallowed and put more Di’anno songs in the set
Y pensar que después de ese pollo a Harris es la banda que más veces llena el nacional uno de los mejores públicos del mundo dicho por el mismo y hasta un en vivo grabado aquí, grande Maiden
Painful to watch, why didn´t they drop the tuning to meet the vocal range of Blaze ??? I have the deepest respect for Steve Harris, but in this case he made a major mistake, almost criminal....I know that Blaze has a powerful voice, so why didn´t they ? And in this particular song, feelings really were running high, and not nice feelings, for any of them.....
susanne williamsson blaze has the voice of a dying cat 😻, and if you think Maiden give a shit about " feelings " you are listening to the wrong band, Maiden is for tough ALPHA men that drink vodka get into fights and fuck 5 women per day
Mark wadd so, howecome I just love them, I´m definitely not an ALPHA ??
susanne williamsson that's because you are a woman, the point is no one forced blaze to be in the band, if he can't sing, it's his problem, he was a bad choice for Maiden
Mark wadd but he´s a terrific singer, there´s so many songs to proove me right, Lord of the Flies, the Edge of Darkness, the Aftermath, the Virus and have you heard Afraid to shoot Strangers with this guy ???
Mark wadd have you ever listened to blaze's solo stuff? Give Silicon Messiah or Tenth dimension a try and you'll see how great blaze is. This song... It's clearly out of range for his powerful baritone voice.
> Listening to Virus
"Hey, that's pretty cool"
> Listening to Clansman
"Also pretty cool"
> Listening to Man On The Edge
"Another good song! Why is everyone hating on this guy?"
> Listening to this
"Ugh"
> Listening to him singing Hallowed Be Thy Name live
"Holy shit this is terrible"
Watching this literally because my mom was neighbors with Wolfsbane in Van Nuys before Blaze joined Maiden, which I just think is kinda rad lol
This really sets your mood swinging, Blaze did the best he could, trying to meet theese high notes he possibly couldn´t reach, the audience showing their anger and disrespect, mainly towards Steve Harris and him, and Janick and Dave trying to smoothe down all this anger and bad feelings.....and they did get on with the song, thats what it means to be playing, working together so closeley. I´ll never understand why they didn´t drop their tuning to meet his fantastic voice....
As a fan and writter of the upcoming book about Blaze era in Maiden, I can confirm that Arry was aware of his weakneses but he was afraid of the reaction of the fans! He Said that Maiden fans knows Maiden Sound and If they tuned down, everything would've been even worse..a big mistake.
@@matejukic791 I respect your opinion but I am sorry, I can't ever agree..... If it would have been anything Harry was this afraid of, howcome so incredibly much of the Blaze era still is obvious? We still, after all this time, hear echoes, or even more than echoes of this so called dark era, which to me is and always will be a Golden era....? To even try to explain that...... are you sure that you are up to that challenge?
@@susannewilliamsson8339 For my book, many fans spoke to me who directly spoke with Harris and with the rest of the members so I think I am more than up for that task..but I think you missunderstud me..I Said Arry refused to tune down cause he was afraid of the reaction of the fans and for me that was big mistake, although I can understand his point of view at the time..but what I cant understand is keeping most challenging material from Bruce era under that terms..but if they still wanted to play most challenging material from Bruce, they had to tune down, at least half a step as Blaze asked and that change would've put stuff Like 2MtM, Clairvoyant and The Evil that Men Do Within his range and he would've been allowed to hit all high notes of the songs Like The Trooper, Hallowed or TNOTB in scream and majority of the fans would not notice that change in their sound..read carefully dear what I wrote! ;)
@@matejukic791 you are correct, I misunderstood your point..... I am hoping that you will forgive me and maybe, just maybe, our views are not so different after all.....
@@susannewilliamsson8339 Its ok..I am big fan of Blaze Bayley Carrer, he is my hero since I was Little kid and his era in Maiden is something very meaningfull to me! And the book I am writting is something for him, in the highest possible hope this Will stop massive level of negativity towards someone who gave everything he had for our beloved band! And I belive things would've been completely different with the different aproach.. Better setlist choice and by that I mean more Di'Anno material with the couple of less acrobatic Bruces stuff as a support Like Afraid to Shoot Strangers,Fear of the Dark, Heaven Can Wait, Powerslave and Still Life would've solved everything, Blaze would've been allowed to sing Within his natural range and there is no question, although it would've been Weird at first without classics Like Hallowed or The Trooper Blaze would've been accepted much better by the fans! :)
Blaze Bayley is a good singer but has a deep baritone/bass voice not the tenor Bruce has so he struggled to sing songs like this. Check out his solo work it's good, I recommend the track "Escape Velocity".
Poor blaze...a great Guy, a good vocalist, a impossible job
I´ve seen this a zillion times, and I still don´t understand why you think this guy´s crap. I love the Maiden, their music and mindblowing lyrics, but to be honest I´ve actually become a Blaze fan aswell.....Maybe he couldn´t sing like you expected in those higher pitched songs, but he´s a really brilliant singer......Anyway, he had a tremendous impact to their music, and we still hear echos of this era in their new material, so all I can say is BRAVO.....
Blaze is an excellent vocalists, he did one hell of a job on the X Factor. That whole album is a master piece!
@@trendmassacre8423 I definitely second that, and to me Blaze is an ACE....
Blaze has always sounded like a tone deaf pub rock singer. Barely fit for local battle of the bands contests, let alone a world class act like Maiden. They could've chosen Russ North (ex Cloven Hoof) as a replacement for Bruce but instead went with this clown. The result of that can be seen in videos such as this one.
@@ultramagnus7037 Let's hear one of your songs then 🤣
No, if you actually watch other songs from the show, Chile absolutely loved Blaze and Maiden. It was a dispute between a few fans and Blaze/Steve, something that happens rather frequently for big bands.
Regardless of whatever the popular opinion, personally I think Blaze is a great vocalist, his 2 albums with Maiden kick ass. I have a ton of respect for this dude for keeping at it during his years with the band despite how negative a lot of people were.
Tordsworld I completely agree and I´m totally impressed with him for even trying....I´ve seen almost everything with Blaze available on TH-cam and especially the show : The night that will not die, it´s just as Blaze says " absolutely fucking magnificent "..
The shows were still kick ass when Blaze was there. Music is about that energy the crowd and music make and it has always been awesome!!
You know they hated Blaze just by the fact that he had to stare down and fight this one guy in the crowd the entire song with Steve at his side 😬
someone did spit at steve so blaze was angry
@@JamezP So was Steve! Never seen him angry like this before.
Dave Murray always happy wkwk
Blaze is amazing! The guy in the crowd deserved every beating he received that day.
poor Nicko wasn't caught in the loop and was starting Running Free immediately until somebody said "NOPE, hol up cowboy."
When someone gets you off your focus you most likely aren't gonna be on your best performance.
My favorite Monty Python skit
Bruce is a panther!! Right at the lip of the stage, shoulder to shoulder on united stance! And the professionals that they are, the finished the song before pouncing!!
bad years with Blaze on vocals...Amazing return of BRUCE and ADRIAN in 1999!!!
Resulta increible como Steve Harris no previó que no solamente tenía que cantar temas de los discos con Blaze sino que en vivo tenía que cantar los clasicos de la banda. Y la verdad la pasaba bastante mal
Tirar escupos en los recitales en Chile se remonta a una mala costumbre de principios de los 80, muy larga por lo menos de contar, (pero todo metalero Chileno sabe el origen y el porquè) viniese quien viniese los llenaban a escupos, lamentablemente ni la doncella se salvò. Afortunadamente habia mucho respeto y los que hicieron eso fueron unos pocos......Afortunadamente y como sale en el video les sacaron cresta y media (golperon y sacaron a patadas)...Se los digo por que yo fui a ese recital. Up the irons....
Carlos Moya 😰
Le da color el mono ql de Bayley, si es un pollo la wea no mas. Por otra parte, me parece sumamente irresponsable encarar de esa forma a un wn del público en un recital lleno de metaleros unineuronales, podrían haber matado al pobre wn sindicado como el q tiro el pollo, no siendo necesario y probablemente él....a Mike Patton lo llenaban a pollos y pa q decir Ozzy q el mismo se paraba en el escenario para q lo tapizaran a pollos...Bayley ql no tenis niun brillo, y la Srta., de Harris se puede meter el bajo x la raja....
@@matylyn1 Mike Patton abría la boca para que le achuntaran con los pollos jaja
Y a todo esto por qué lo hacían? me da curiosidad... Saludos desde México.
Eu gosto desse vídeo pra caralho, atmosfera e o pau quebrando, Blaze era limitado, mas o surto dele foi totalmente compreensível.
Eu não entendi, o que houve no fim da música pra o Blaze e o Steve ficarem tão bravos?
@@rodericus4448 tinha um bando de Kids heateando ele ali, dizendo que ele era ruim.
@@rodericus4448 pelo que eu ouvi chegaram a até tentar cuspir no Blaze, passaram dos limites
Sim, estavam xingando eles pra crlh, e cuspindo também, foi ridículo, Blaze tinha que ter dado era uma voadora logo kkk
Blaze had the impossible job, not just in vocal range but even in dealing with idiots in the crowd like this. Bruce would have simply just dealt with this situation in seconds. But this one idiot encouraged Steve to stand right next to his singer (loyally) and totally railroaded the song. In the nicest possible way (I love maiden and Blaze) but as an armchair pundit years later, this video really demonstrates all of the variables that maiden hadn’t considered when choosing Blaze. Much love to Blaze though, I don’t know if anybody else who could have done so well with the deck of cards he was handed. And to this day, he carries himself as a great human being. Respect doesn’t even describe the admiration that I have for Blaze and his character, and talent. And unsung true hero.
Same thing has happened to Brucey and he wasn't exactly a shiny happy face politely asking the guy in the crowd to stop.
Turn down this song in Eb and it fit perfectly with Blaze's voice !
Aquí es como cuando Dio cantaba canciones de Ozzy, no importa la voz, si es mejor o no, la voz original siempre será parte de la emoción de la canción.
P.D. Blaze no es malo, simplemente no es Bruce :v
Pensé que era el único que pensaba así, ambos tienen buenas voces, lo que le faltó a blazer ya fuera de Iron fue una mejor banda
Angel guzman estas cosas no hubieran pasado con Michael Kiske en la voz, de acuerdo Blaze no es mal cantante pero no le quedan para nada estas canciones
Pero el coro de blaze me pareció increíble, no estuvo nada mal
Blaze has another voice bell that Bruce, but the songs of the albums The X factor and Virtual XI are made for the voice of Blaze, not for Bruce
Idk, Bruce sings those songs better than Blaze (Clansman, Futureal, etc)
It's easy to overlook it because of all that goes on in this clip but Davey's solo is fucking great.
steve also got spat on in 1999 in the ed hunter tour and bruce went mental
Dave protests the audience by playing the most boring trooper solo ever! :D
🤣🤣🤣🤣 jacnick too... they are not playing mood even blaze also.
hahaha yea what the fuck was that? funny as shit dude
I have one thought
THANK GOD THEY BROUGHT BRUCE BACK
Blaze maybe could've done this better if that fucker in the front row didn't spit in Steve's face. Look at Blaze and look at Steve, they just wanted the fucking song to be over with. That death glare in Steve's eyes though...
I actually am a little surprised that one, or even both, of these guys didn't launch into the crowd after this spitter! I'm waitin' & I'm watchin', and I'm thinkin', "OK, he's gonna dive off the stage after this douche'...right....now... no ....Now!..... no....." And then Steve threw his Axe on the floor, and I'm all, like, "Oh shit!, Here we go!" But, no. Yeah, I am a bit surprised. I know if I gotta take my Bass off & toss it to the ground like that at the end of a song, it is because someone is gonna get their ass handed to them in little pieces! I would be fukkin' somebody's stupid ass up!
Love how Steve backs him up the whole time. He was the only one to fully stand behind Blaze. Even Rod and Nicko didn't support Blaze.
El hizo todo lo que pudo vocalmente y demás, pero los fans no lo aceptaron, los discos que hizo no eran malos de hecho me gustan mas que los discos que hizo Maiden con Paul D'Anno sobre todo el X Factor con esa atmósfera oscura. Virtual XI es mas futurístico aunque hay temas que son monótonos, en directo si reconozco que carecía de la esencia front man de Dickinson. Ví algunos conciertos de esa época y solo se limitaba a cantar, no transmitía ese mega carisma de Dickinson...
The dark aera of maiden, although they had one good record with Blaze! I love the X-Factor! Bad time for them, but it was good for the fans i think! If they had a good replacement for Dickinson, there probably wouldn't be brave new world, matter of life and death or book of souls and he and adrian would have never rejoined the band! Maybe they would have had some other good albums, but they wouldn't have these awesome tours with their own airplane! So i'm glad that smith and dickinson returned....
I’ve got a lot of respect for Steve but the fact he wouldn’t tune down these songs for Blaze will always put him down ever so slightly in my estimation. He has history with not quite grasping the difficulties of singing considering during the 80s he dismissed Bruce’s voice starting to go due to being over worked.
ca. 1:25 what happened to Janick or his guitar? It looked like he was upset at an audience member or security crew?
Porque canta la cancion a su tono original? pudo haberle bajado 1 tono y habria sonado mucho mejor
es que en Iron Maiden hay una regla no escrita, que es jamás bajar el tono a las canciones en vivo, tampoco he visto que lo hagan en el estudio
That third line in the final verse gets me every fucking time lol
Respect for Blaze !!!
Dave Murray solo!!! GOD-Like. Epic! 😍😍
Those deathstares tell a lot. But they play the song. Pros. Huge respect.
But yeah, Di Anno songs are needed more. Trooper is about solos amd guitars. So it's ok for Blaze vocals.
If you see someone spitting etc. Make sure that HE/she leaves the venue a.s.a.p. My respects for not stopping the song. Madness after is more than fine.
Yeah, he's not Dickinson. But it's not his fault that ex-singer aborted the band.
Posers leave the scene! Stay away. Blaze got so much shit for nothing... Harris picked wrong setlist for him. This tour and the next. Heaven Can Wait is fine. Clairvoyant + Evil That Men Do NOT! Harris wtf?!? He's range is where? Anti-professional.
And he gets spitted...like every show? 90% of shows? Bootleg data is not positive about that. Here it's so disgusting. Posers, support or leave. Damn.
Bayley's solo until 2010 was very enjoyable. For me, positive+++!
This is painful to watch
Coitado do Blaze, sofrendo pra tentar cantar the trooper
Podrían haber bajado la afinación, medio tono por lo menos.... No se tratar de ayudar a blaze un poco... Su registro no es el de bruce, muy difícil para el llegar a esas notas.... Eso también es culpa de la banda.... En vez de ayudar al vocal, le hicieron todo mas dificil.....🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
esse porra foi macho pra caralho nessa hora. blaze merece meu respeito
I'm late to the party.. can someone tell me what happened here?
Some dickhead spat on Blaze's.
Another possible suggestion for the crowd being pissed off was because this was Maiden's first visit to Chile, and that Bruce wasn't singing for the show. You must remember people that Maiden tried to visit Chile back in '92 when Bruce was still in the band, but the Catholic Church wouldn't allow it, and fans didn't get what they wanted. Now here's Maiden in '96, and people are pissed that it's not Bruce.
The freakout was far more entertaining than the performance. They were dead in the water. Re-enter Bruce and Adrian to reignite the beast
Grande Maiden!!!
Can anyone confirm what the arguments about? Spitting? Steves holding his neck at the end? Watched this a couple of times going back through Maiden vids and cant get it.
Bad times of Maiden...
Bruce returns in 99', only glory days, with DVD in Chile
Tinha uma lhama chilena cuspideira no show, que desrespeito... o Blaze estava com sangue nos olhos mas encarou o desafio de tentar levar a música no tom . Bravo!
I thought blaze did great. No Bruce but who is?
If you wanna blame someone for Blaze been “out of range”, blame Iron Maiden. They should have hired a tenor instead of a baritone.
Tell me why he should have been a " Bruce clone "...he wasn´t, and should never been expected to be...I´m totally impressed by this guy for even trying to sing in their original key, and I´m very disappointed by the ones that don´t understand the tuning issues..Honestly he did the best he could, and we should be grateful to him for taking the challenge ...Give the guy the credit he deserves and not all theese crappy comments .....
Whatever the problem was, Blaze and Steve were both meanmugging someone up front from the first verse onward... Many years later, we get that Iron Maiden was attempting to move on without Bruce or even a Bruce imitator, but for a song like The Trooper that's exactly what you need.
That's when you appreciate Bruce skills!
this song was definitely NOT meant for Blaze
Blaze es un extraordinario cantante, los discos que él sacó con la banda, suenan extraordinarios, pero no se escuchaba bien con las canciones de Bruce, siempre me pregunté por qué no afinaron medio tono abajo, o incluso hasta en D estándard, para las actuaciones en vivo, con su voz hubieran sonado excelente las canciones que cantó Bruce, un tono o semitono más abajo.
Los discos que sacaron en la época con Blaze, fueron producidos por Steve Harris, quien se encargó de la mezcla en sus estudios, y por su inexperiencia, no se permiten apreciar tanto a las canciones, no son malas.
El productor anterior se retiró después de trabajar en el Fear Of The Dark.
I hope this is one of Steve’s biggest regrets. He wanted to go for someone who has a different voice than Bruce I get that but goddamn it’s like he forgot that his new singer is gonna have to tour with them. He should’ve downtuned the Bruce songs if he was gonna have blaze sing them because blaze is a very good singer, but he doesn’t have as wide of a range
God bless Dave Murray
The only one with happiness, Dave is a Nice guy
@@Biodroid11 Dave was borned laughing and soloing!!!
i'm italian...so i'm sorry but i don't understand what happened at the final of song. why Blaze is angry? Please explain me, i will translate.
blaze is a legend
Exacto,toda la razón! Es un caballero.
What happened at the end?
All these comments on the vocal range of Blaze.... to be fair he was being pelted with coins throughout this performance yet carried on to finish the song!
He can't sing, and he has an ugly timber in his voice. He should've walked off the stage long before The Trooper came along. What an hilarious performance, and how unprofessional it is. No wonder the guy in the audience were a dick, just listen yourself! That guy actually paid to watch this shit!
@@rabarebra yeah but the rest of the band were out of tune. They should have tuned to Blaze's timbre then it would have sounded fine. That's what Wolfsbane used to do and it worked out fine. The guys in Iron Maiden should have realised that's what they needed to do. I would have expected better from professional musicians but then I guess Maiden are no Wolfsbane.
@@rabarebra I've literally had my ears drained 2 weeks ago and they're better than ever. I know what I'm listening to. I'm strictly professional which is why I'm qualified to make the assessment I did. I have a very good ear for these things which why I hold several qualifications with the Chartered Institute of Musicians. I wouldn't be so into rock'n'roll if I didn't know what I was talking about.
@@rabarebra what the hell are you talking about anyway? I thought we were talking about wood. What the hell is timbre? In your opening comment you mentioned 'timber' and I was commenting on that before I made a typo. I don't know what timbre is. You're crazy. I like you... but you're crazy
@@rabarebra I personally only tune to oscillations heard in nature. That's why I was interested in your comment about timber.
I keep listening to 3:02 over and over
I don't know who I'd be more afraid of if I was the guy who spit at them. Blaze looks pretty pissed, but Steve looks fucking murderous just standing there glaring. Like he's gonna chuck his bass at the guy as soon as he gets eye contact.
What does your voice matter? They spit on a musician from Iron Maiden, he has no forgiveness
I don't understand why they didn't play the song in a lower key 😩
They played this song faster to boot. That is a common mistake that bands make live.
It was part of the reason Smith was unhappy with the band - he felt they choked the life out of the songs by going too fast live.
я так и не понял. что у них в конце то случилось?
La cara de blaze cuando comienza la canción...los chilenos somos maiden !!!!
La mayoría habla de la voz de Blaze, pero yo lo que más veo extraño y feo es la parte del solo tan horrible que hicieron, lo dañaron completamente.
Pero si el otro wn la canta como el pico en toda la canción, no es como el solo que fue en una parte.
La verdad es que todos estaban demasiado molestos por lo que sucedió, y no quisieron parar la canción pero la tocaron sin ganas. Por eso no hubo sentimiento en los solos
