Janick lives in my town, I often see him in the local Sainsbury's just getting on with his day. He's quite friendly with my mother too, you'd never think that he was part of such a famous band.
***** Not best friends but close enough that they sometimes have a drink with each other and say hello to each other when they cross paths out and about.
The thing that I love about the Iron Maiden songs is that its not all about getting drunk, having sex with girls/ love problems, partying, drugs, and all that social stuff that many artists nowadays write about. Its historical ,adventurous and filled with literature. That's what i love about their music
Sam Hartley - There are plenty of bands that aren't about that... Don't make it seem like Iron Maiden is so unique in that aspect... Every heard of Rainbow, Dio, Metallica, Sabbath, etc, etc... So many of these storytelling bands that are NOT about sex and drugs... And not just back then, they still exist plenty. - The problem is that they don't tend to become big and popular anymore, and the "'music" industry promotes garbage.
Janick is such an underrated player. I'm glad Iron Maiden kept him around when Adrian came back. Janick, Adrian and Dave are such great such guitarists.
Only band in the world that can get away with 3 guitarists and not get worse trying to fit them all in together. Everybody has their chance and everybody plays their role. Long Live Maiden \m/
at this point, he's been with iron maid over 1/2 the years they've been around and he's on 1/2 the albums but i still don't see him as a member. He's still a hired gun who happens to be on stage with the band like a dancer.
If by underrated you mean sloppy and barely playing a recognizable note on the classic songs, yes he very underrated. Nice enough bloke, but, well, c’mon.
@Samí Warrior Couldn't disagree more. A very sloppy player compared to the other 2. Better writer than Adrian? Lol, well that's a joke. The only credit i'd give him is in his energy live.
it is even possible to not like this band? like everything is perfect, the lyrics, the melodies, they sound even more good in stage than on the albums, they’re really incredible.
What class acts and very intelligent. Interesting comments on the music industry as a whole. Will always be my favorite band. Book of Souls can't come soon enough. UP THE IRONS!!
… „putting out records for another 20 years“… Bruce: „yes we could, but not with me!“ Well, at least it’s 16 years now, and they still putting out records and tour. I saw them live this month and it was still killer, like I saw them 20 years ago. Up the Irons!
Bruce nails it on the head when he said (crappy) music is everywhere. It's so popular now and yet musicians are not making a living out of it...don't u just love technology? FUCK!
This is the most poised and cool I've ever seen anyone who has interviewed Iron Maiden, or especially Bruce. Instead of listening to their answers, I was marveling at the ease with which he interacted with these superstars. This was a pleasure to watch just for that reason. Am I alone?
Seeing Jannick brings back good memories - when I first saw him he was still with Gillan playing at Donnington. I have never heard a guy cranking up his amps that much during their Smoke on the Water version!
Not about the band. But their security is bunch of assholes. In 2008 when they came to Budapest, I had a chance to wait for them at the airport before they got through the passport control. Only a few people could be there so it was a perfect chance to meet my very favorite band and have my vinyl cover signed by all of them. As soon as they got to the gate their security formed a chain not letting anyone near them and kept on repeating "back off, back the fuck off". (There was about 10 people all together, so it was not a typical crowd that awaits them after they get out of the airport terminal).If was so dissapointing seeing all of them pass right front of me and not being able to ask any of them for their signiture. 5 of them passed me because of the security. The 6th one stoped and told the security guard "let me sign it for him" and pushed the guard away. It was Steve Harris.
Which is why Maiden still Rocks. Iron Maiden has always been about the music metal with style and harmony and fun. Always about the fun: even after 37 or more years they're still new and exciting. Up the Irons forever.
Janick totally right on with his approach to making music. make it together as a band playing together. yeah, sure you can get clips for each member and use protools to merge them into a song and sell it but it ain't the same. Janick right on in his thinking.
Μπράβο Γιώργο! \m/ I'm so glad that i can see many Greeks origin who are famous abroad. Jimmy Kay from "The Metal Voice" is a famous Canadian also like you with roots from Kastoria, Northern Greece. Be always well George, Metal Hails from Motherland Greece!!
Glorious moment of irony regarding what Bruce was saying about music being everywhere: Went to watch West Ham play in London and they play Run to the hills before the teams run out.
In 1999, Maiden just needed Bruce to return. Adrian was a bonus. I still saw crowds in many shows after Janick joined (Adrian lef) but the band became less popular after Bruice was away for 7 years.
Oh I love this album!! When The Last Frontier came out and everybody thought this would be the last maiden album I was like this is so wrong, they should have left A Matter of Life & Death be their swan song. But now that The Book of Souls is out.... :D!!
Maybe others have, I have not, but when Maiden's being interviewed about playing live and or about themselves as a band in general, I've never heard Maiden throw a bone to Michael Kenny.
1992 the catholic church in chile forbidden the iron maiden'show. From that moment, the Maidens chileans fans have nothing but love to this band and them show to them every time they went to Chile... I Love you Bruce, no matter what will happened in the future...
I know this sounds cliche and everyone always says this kind of stuff but as a Maiden fan from the sound house tapes and seeing them open for priest at MSG I can honestly say this album is top 5 maiden albums and before you go crazy debating me just think how appreciated this would be if this came out before powerslave
One of my fav albums by them and wbag a great gang of guys so normal too yes apart of one of the biggest metal bands ever dont take it for granted and shun the celebrity spotlight ok they do interview's wheb they need to but they really do love what they do
Iron Maiden please continue to write songs for the tiny giant hearts of little girls please!!!!!!!!!! Please i want to see more much more !!!!!!! Thank you very much War Lords!!!!!!!! Thank you very much War Lord George!!!!!!! 😇😊
First time I see them was in 1982 at massey hall in Toronto with15 foot Eddie and the 2 demons chasing each other on stage ..with Anvil opening for them ..I was hooked from then on
Janic I do work for him and he’s wife Sandra. I saw him the other at he’s house he had been out for a drive in he’s white Porsche . Really nice person to talk to.
The sound production of AMOLAD is so refreshingly dynamic, especially compared to the brickwalled-beyond-belief Dance of Death. I suppose it was a spontanious decision not to over-remaster it. Unfortunately the next few albums were much louder and AMOLAD remains a happy reminder of the sonically free breathing days of yesterday.
he still has the Hartlepool twang. you can see him at Hartlepool Utd home games stood on the terrace like any other normal fan. always allows photo's and a chat
My criteria for not "cheating" when you're recording a song is that you should be able to play it well live, without voice overdubs and such. So no autotune
They should ditch that way of recording. The albums made with Martin Birch were sonically superior in every way (even the ones recorded in a bloody barn).
especially with how Bruce's voice sounds on the newer albums, sort of thinned out and strained sounding. Yet he sounds awesome live and perfect on his solo albums.
How did you put these two guys together? One screams, on and off stage, like an electron that got kicked out of an atom. The other is charmer now, but when on stage he plays those six strings as if possessed by an IMPISH ANGEL. 😀😉😆
Janick lives in my town, I often see him in the local Sainsbury's just getting on with his day. He's quite friendly with my mother too, you'd never think that he was part of such a famous band.
***** thats why he is called, mr aminotfamousyet

Was? He still is I guess?

+Mr John Smith Indeed.
That's what I love about them as well. All the members of the band are quite friendly and personable; it's an act they put on!
M effin Patriot yea same, opeth's lyrics are good too!

You say that as if they're the only band who don't sing about that stuff.
I'm honestly glad they kept Janick after Adrian returned, he's got some killer solos up his sleeve. Having three guitar players is metal as hell.
I take upon you. He is not only a great musician but also everyone
likes him in the band.
I agree. He is a really good addition to the band in my opinion, especially live, very entertaining!
They should add Roy Z to the band as well.
The more the metaller…
I think he’s the glue to that band.
Yeah and everyone loved his splits on stage too
Bruce is a regular at the pub I work at in London, see him every week. Nice fella!
+Louis Clark What pub is that?
don't answer him
Louis Clark which god damn pub is this??
What's his preffered drink? Is he a lager or ale man?
Jonah Fuerstenberg Ale definitely. He's a thinking man.
Janick is such an underrated player. I'm glad Iron Maiden kept him around when Adrian came back. Janick, Adrian and Dave are such great such guitarists.
Only band in the world that can get away with 3 guitarists and not get worse trying to fit them all in together. Everybody has their chance and everybody plays their role. Long Live Maiden \m/

“Even some of the best bands don’t do it that way “
You’re looking at the best son.
yes i havent seen anyone match them live. even hip hop artists said they cant achieve what they do live. he prolly didnt do his homework.
Yes, Bruce said it right. They sound BETTER live than they do on the record. How rare is that! It makes the albums a teaser to their next tour.
Maiden are one of the best bands in the world!!!!
I second that emotion
it is even possible to not like this band? like everything is perfect, the lyrics, the melodies, they sound even more good in stage than on the albums, they’re really incredible.
I always like hearing what Janick has to say.
What class acts and very intelligent. Interesting comments on the music industry as a whole. Will always be my favorite band. Book of Souls can't come soon enough.
UP THE IRONS!!
Indústria brasileira!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DE onde vem essa camisa? Ele usa ela no clipe de Brighter than a thousand suns no abbey road

This is the most poised and cool I've ever seen anyone who has interviewed Iron Maiden, or especially Bruce. Instead of listening to their answers, I was marveling at the ease with which he interacted with these superstars. This was a pleasure to watch just for that reason. Am I alone?
"even some of the best bands in the world don't do it that way"
DUDE they are one of the best
Mater of Life and Death was the album that brought me back to Maiden. Up the Irons!
I missed this interview a few years back. Another great Maiden album, another cool interview, I LOVE THESE GUYS! UP THE IRONS! \m/
Seeing Jannick brings back good memories - when I first saw him he was still with Gillan playing at Donnington. I have never heard a guy cranking up his amps that much during their Smoke on the Water version!
Bruce vestindo uma camisa da Indústria Brasileira não tem preço.
I love what Janick said at the end
So old school and amazing. Ugh Love this
Is there literally anything bad that can be said about Iron Maiden?
LureScape only thing that comes to mind is the confrontation with Sharon Osbourne.
LureScape Yes . They're too perfect . They don't let any chance to any others heavy metal bands to be better ^^

TheProgRock Steve ! \m/
You arrogant idiot fuckhead. There was about 10 ppl. As I wrote.
Doesn't the interviewer know that Bruce was a commercial pilot ?
He is now qualified to fly and Boeing 747. That's one tough gig to get.
And that was over 10 years ago. They're FAR bigger now than they were even then.
I like Bruce Dikinson
Me too.fab
Who actuallty doesn't like such a incredible bloke? Just an insane person.
I'd love to be taken on a flight piloted by the great bruce dickinson it would be frickin awesome.
A Matter of Life and Death, my favourite album and live gig...
2026 isn't that far off iron maiden is still killing it!
1:07, what does he mean "even some of the best bands in the world don't do it that way" as if Iron Maiden ain't one of them. ?
Ha I know. He said it like Iron Maiden were a new up-coming band!
@zxxXMETALLICAXxxz 1:08 actually
That's what weak and pathetic reporters do . He is a weak and pathetic reporter 📢
Bruce com a camiseta "industria Brasileira" kkkk
up with the irons!!!

Bruce Dickinson is a brilliant man,he is a smart business man
I have the biggest crush on Bruce and Janick 😍😍😘😘
bruce's voice seems to have changed more at giving interviews than at singing.
Was he about to get sick at this time perhaps? I hardly recognized his voice here. Deep rumble. I lightened up after I'm sure.
LOVE This Album!!! :)
Hey 👋

Bruce Dickinson💟💟💟💟
Strombo - “That’s a tall order because even some of the best bands in the world don’t do it that way”......Bruce - rolls eyes.
The interviewer asked about billboards?......IRON MAIDEN is too good for that American music chart crap...jja
shut up and pay attention you fucking moron.
bruce's voice sounds different in this interview compared to the recent interview~
Yeah its probably because of aging and cancer recovery
This is ten years old.
I was thinking the same
He kinda sounded like he was recovering from a cold
My wife, aka "Bruce Chickinson", says that he sounds like he's been singing a lot. Probably why he's a bit gritty when he's speaking.
Wow…pretty badass interview… didn’t know much about the band and haven’t heard a ton of their stuff
I love maiden , specially Nicko :)
LAYUCHEBI i love them all with all my heart but Steve and Dave have a special place in it
As a Brazilian I really liked his using the "Industria Brasileira" t-shirt. 😃👍
Oh I love this album!! When The Last Frontier came out and everybody thought this would be the last maiden album I was like this is so wrong, they should have left A Matter of Life & Death be their swan song. But now that The Book of Souls is out.... :D!!

And now Senjutsu! An absolutely stellar album.

I Love you Bruce, no matter what will happened in the future...
To be honest, AMOLAD was my last Maiden physical album. I bought the cassette in 2006.
It came out on cassette???
I like listening to heavy metal music and to me iron maiden is the very best heavy metal band in the world.
Good David St Hubens wig.
I know this sounds cliche and everyone always says this kind of stuff but as a Maiden fan from the sound house tapes and seeing them open for priest at MSG I can honestly say this album is top 5 maiden albums and before you go crazy debating me just think how appreciated this would be if this came out before powerslave
BRUCE DICKINSON is a big fan of the Brazil
Him and Dave Mustaine. \m/ up the irons! \m/
Enyone know the name of the song in the background at 0:38. Sounds really neat.
Different World
INDUSTRIA BRASILEIRA 🖤
One of my fav albums by them and wbag a great gang of guys so normal too yes apart of one of the biggest metal bands ever dont take it for granted and shun the celebrity spotlight ok they do interview's wheb they need to but they really do love what they do
Iron Maiden please continue to write songs for the tiny giant hearts of little girls please!!!!!!!!!! Please i want to see more much more !!!!!!! Thank you very much War Lords!!!!!!!! Thank you very much War Lord George!!!!!!! 😇😊
Bruce Dickinson's vocals sound amazing even when isolated from the instruments.
Janick 😍😍😍
You're asking iron maiden if they were playing thier instruments?? Faaaawkkkk me..these boys are legends kid!
Very Good!!
Industria Brasileira !!!
Iron maiden class act..
First time I see them was in 1982 at massey hall in Toronto with15 foot Eddie and the 2 demons chasing each other on stage ..with Anvil opening for them ..I was hooked from then on
Bruce Voice sounds so different in this video.
Yes! He sounds like Rowan Atkinson here.
Bruce com uma camiseta "Indústria Brasileira"!
🤘🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🤘
What’s not to like about Iron Maiden?? “Throw your suitcase on the plane we’re gonna cruise the globe” is a great way to reach your fans.
eeeita ta escrito "industria brasileira" na camiseta do bruce kkkkkkkkkkk ja vi essa entrevista centenas de vezes e só percebi isso hoje 🤣🤣
Muito bom
That T-Shirt is written kinda of MADE IN BRAZIL in portuguese....(literally translating Brazilian Industry)....🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷 Obrigado man.
Os dois caras mais fodas do mundo do rock!!!
Hi Iron Maiden, want to see your work and what you have for a tiny teenage life in music!!!!!! 😇😊❤🔥❤🔥💯💯💯

agreed
especially with how Bruce's voice sounds on the newer albums, sort of thinned out and strained sounding. Yet he sounds awesome live and perfect on his solo albums.
Absolutely agree
One million percent agree. Studio albums are not supposed to sound live. They are supposed to sound more polished.
How did you put these two guys together?
One screams, on and off stage, like an electron that got kicked out of an atom.
The other is charmer now, but when on stage he plays those six strings as if possessed by an IMPISH ANGEL. 😀😉😆
bruce looks like such a huggable guy! 😂
Marry Christmas
100% agree
Where is deer lake ?
Why the fuck do I never get Bruce as a pilot when I fly out of Deer Lake?
AND we brazillians are big fan BRUCE DICKSON and Iron Maiden
It honestly feels like the interviewer is really trying to pay attention because he struggles to understand the English accent haha
