The perfect harmony of the two completely different version of guitars on a magnificent melody...
The amount of talent to convert this song over to classical guitar amazing. Nita was incredible as ever.
It’s always awesome when you can see musicians enjoy what they are playing when they are performing. Even if it just a silly jam sesh. I have seen Nita perform with Alice Cooper and she always seems to FEEL the song, not just play it. Based on the live videos especially, Thomas does as well. I love that.
Nita Strauss is so beautiful and talented and she really gets so much joy out of playing ....That's the key to life people ...find something that you get pure joy and happiness doing....Rock on Nita much love from N.Y
Great rendition!
The shredding brutality of electric, combine with the elegant beauty of acoustic.
Just goes to show how versatile metal is, especially when it gets HOT.
It's not just that Nita is pretty, it's just that she is always smiling and looks so care free and humble. She will talk to almost anyone and just seems like she is just loving life. She's just here for the ride and she's going to enjoy it.
Fantastic to see both of you having so much fun.
Gives me a smile from ear to ear!❤
That was awesome. Two guitarist I have enjoyed watching on their own coming together to play a song I love. And the duo of classical and electric guitar sounds great!
It's always nice to see people with completely different techniques sit down and throw together something like this! Thomas was always watching for changes and Nita's subtle "nice" expression when he came in with the vocal melodies really made this something else! Thomas has such a casual confidence and mastery that is such a pleasure to listen to and Nita just keeps playing through things that throw me and other players off like when her guitar strap fell down at the end (always unwelcome). Keep up the great work both of you! :)
Wow, you are right! I never noticed that! Thomas is able to keep up with her ferocity and she loved it!
I'm more impressed with that guy fingerpicking that part
Its wild.
Insane fingerpicking technique! Wow!🤘🤘
Neither is really interesting
Nita is absolutely stunning, and a guitar goddes, but she rushed the f out of that song.
Bionic_Marine yeah the solo bit was very sloppy
Beautiful... It brought tears to my eyes listening to my two favorite worlds coming together, Classical and Heavy Metal. Thank you.

Cool to see how much fun you're both having AND how impressed you both are by the other's guitar skills! 😎🤘

You are on the top of my favourite playlist. Thank you for memories!
Nita is unreal! She's so young and so good! It's crazy. I've seen her live and she's got the whole package with talent and stage presence.
so good!
What a great guitar player. And Nita Strauss is there, too.
That was some serious skill from both players! Awesome. And the temp was great!
You guys looks like your having so much fun...great song and awesome playing together!!!
Not wat I was expecting to watch. That was a killer version. Well done!
Really, like this acoustic sound a lot.
This is my favourite cover of the trooper and god, I love these pinch harmonics - amazing!!
I can’t stop watching this!!!! You are both so good!!!! Thank you for sharing this!!!!
I wish they'd do more pieces together. This classical/electric combination is insane!
+Pawel X we did Aces High too, it’s on this channel!
Yeah, I know. But I'm hungry for more ;)
Leuk man!!!
The beauty and the beast!!! Couriously the beast is Nita
Then call me Emma Watson, because I'd do pretty much anything for a chance with Nita!
Leslie Forsdyke there's no doubt you like her. Up the nylons
No doubt i'd love to watch a beauty and the beast movie with Emma and Nita
Both are the beasts on guitar
ABSOLUTELY MIND BLOWING(!!)... BOTH, NITA'S "IMPECCABLE PULCHRITUDE".. AND "SONIC RIFFING".. A "DOUBLE WINNER" HERE.. CAN'T ARGUE WITH THAT!!
You're both incredible, I love you guys!!
mistura perfeita! Parabéns. 🎵🤘🎶
Everyone that covers this song plays it much faster than the original for some reason
because is epic.
set to 0.85% ... sounds perfect
@@flowrepins6663 That not a reason.
So true. Even Maiden itselves play it faster
True. Rage Against the Machine do it quick.
Au top les 2 ... guitares électriques et classiques un super complément !
WOW That's so awsome, the combination Classic guitar/ e-guitar kicks me away and Nita ist the WOMAN! Love her so much.
Dam cool!! Well done guys
Hello Thomas , and Nita .......This two sounds together are absolutly fabulous ! Great !! Up the 12 strings :) ...The finish is incredible ! Congratulations and thanks
My brain melted at this epicness!!! 🤯
Awesome rendition. Love the tempo. Love the contrast between the acoustic and the electric. Fantastic stuff.
I must be getting old, if i find classical guitar more impressive :)
He is a way better player .
Well... The same thing I was thinking... I found the acoustic way better
Didnt like the guy. Boring most accoustic is. Song isnt good either. Rather hear someone on melotron or something...no percussion, no electronics, no keyboards. But everyones diff. Nowadays im over classic rock. Burned out rather hear Radiohead or Daft Punk or Gorillaz or Arcade Fire. Violins, keyboards, keytar, bongos, drum machine, melotron, odnes mardonet, a mixing of instruments...more interested in music borne out of computers. Industrial (Trent Reznor) or Joy Division, or Massive Attack. Synth work, etc. I want more then just guitar.
@@Itzsfo0 look up Geosmin by hnrk&Kodyak
Yup he is lol
Ela acelerou muito o tempo da música, mas foi uma versão interessante. Um Iron speed metal kkkkk. Parabéns a dupla!
Great duo! I love Nita Strauss, a heavy metal angel. Just saw her last month perform with Alice Cooper in Utica, NY. She's extremely talented and keeps the 80's metal tradition alive. The best guitarist I've come across in years. Alice and Sheryl should not give her up until they retire! The acoustic and electric guitar was wonderful, a great combination and added a beautiful touch on this classic Maiden song.
that was super awesome. I loved how the electric guitar sounds with the classical
CARAMBA que show... Ela toca demais! INCRÍVEL! PARABÉNS!
Fantástico!
Absolutely love it! Great song in the first place, but your interpretation is amazing, thanks for this!
2 people doing a great cover and really enjoying themselves, great to see
👏👏👏 sem palavras, faltou até o ar.
Just watched your "Aces High" with Nita (which was awesome) ... But this was so much better mixed, your guitar is clearer here
Awesome (Y)
yeah aces high was meh
I do not dare say "meh" ... but yeah xD
Wow just wow! Amazing!
Wow.... speachless..
Amazing.Thanks for watching
You're welcome
I Love Nita
My most favorite song which I often prefer hearing when it comes to maiden ...well done amigos you rocked
Great combination of classic and electric guitar. Well done both!
Thomas is amazing player. And i love that he has the smile of pennywise (Bill Skarsgård)
Something is off with the timing ...
It's too fast at some parts
One is finger picking and the other is fast picking, that's why it sounds a bit off. Personally I think Nita is downtuned a bit.
Definitely too fast at times
it was a bit sloppy on the solo part.
she is trying too much... just look and sounds premade and off and not real at all
Holy Mother of God that was awesome!
you guys r just incredible.... no words!!! A real honor for my ears, my eyes , my heart, my soul.. I pretty much think Iron Maiden felt the same if they heard you. Wish you the best !!!!💪💪💪
Thank you so much for the lovely words!
This was the best Trooper cover I have ever heard. Many moons ago in a thrash band we would do this cover, and it would generate an insane pit every time. I still wonder why it has that power, though this cover can help me with my confusion.
I dont know why is everybody complaing about speed..its their way of playing song and its awsome
Love this! Never bored watching Nita..😍
Oh man that was EPIC!! Rock on guys!!
A bit too fast but overall pretty dope
Listen to "Live After Death".
Mach 2.
EPIC! My god Nita is so beautiful and man can she play \m/
how can you tell with all that make up on her face ?
David Haney each to their own bro! Everyone’s beautiful to someone
Without the makeup he is beautiful too dude =)
Okay goober, thanks for the observation
PearsAreOkay you talking to me?
Wow!!! Such amazing vibe!!!
amazing combination - sounds great!
Really awesome! Not being negative, but this song is nothing without the amazing bass line. Still really amazing arrangement like this tho.
Ricardo H. i agree.. steve harris is 1 of the best bassist
Well, it's steve we're talking about, he's spoiled us
Nita self adjusted the sound to hear Thomas better. Pro!
Perfect combination of electric and acoustic guitar!
This was great! Also makes you realize how unique dave Murray is - she did an amazing job but no one can replicate his playing!!
Nita has skills. Plus her attitude, confidence, and personality makes her easily one of the sexiest women on the planet.
Skill doesn't come with sexiness. Unfortunately. And here's the proof. Overrated as fuck. The sloppiest guitar player at the moment and here just because she's sexy... fair play at its best.
That is hér job tó Play
@@sanimoze31 dude she got her big break by being part of the Iron Maidens. A female Iron Maiden cover group. I think she knows what she is doing. If she did not Alice Cooper would have never hired her.
But the solo sounded like shit
@@sanimoze31 I totally agree she is super overrated and sloppy and in my opinion she ugly asf
Nita is a GODDESS
great cover your are a great classical musician and with nita strauss whos a new legend in guitar nice cover of the great iron maiden
Beautiful combo!!
BEST VERSION
EVER
we thank you!
I think I just fell in love with that girl....even if the solo wasnt the best.
You both ROCK!!! Respect!
My god! Besides you're playing this music, the rythim of the right hand of Nina Strauss is mind blowing! Wish I had a rythim like that! Up The Irons!
Isso sim hein...
0:47 hermoso ver como la dama está fuera de sí un momento y comienza a agitar su cabeza...epico.
acoustic guitar has never before sounded so badass !!!
Acoustic sounds so good..love it... Just wow.. 😍😍😍❤️❤️
Mind blown. Seeing the descendant of Johann Strauss playing Iron Maiden.
tim27177 I didn't know he's a relative of Johann Strauss. Very cool
She rips a guitar but she's playing that song wrong
It's a cover not a performance bud
@@usmanrind9648 still the amount of unnecessary bends makes anyone uncomfortable
Says some random internet guy about someone who professionally played that some for years with the Iron Maidens
@@danielmccormick3611 not just some guy on the net. I played for years and when we did a cover we did it right. She rocks no doubt about it.just saying
@@danielmccormick3611 you do not have to be a professional to observe the obvious rhythmic mistakes that she makes, and the jumping over some notes to cover up and keep the tempo.
Didnt expect THIS! Loved it
Wow I love this. The acoustic sounds sooo good. ❤️
TOOOO FAST ...
Demasiado rápido para disfrutar, cualquier buen guitarrista puede tocar rápido, pero no cualquiera puede transmitir la euforia si se hace con su tiempo
Way too fast.
The play it fast live
Amazing i love it. Nita you rock girl😎🤘🤘🤘
I didn't know I need this in my life... until now.
Half a woman, half a fire!
Vladimir Ranisavljevic do jaja brate!
Both of them are amazing musicians but the one on the right is definitely better looking.
How can anyone dislike this? Its Phenomenal.
Wow stunning and not just the playing which is amazing.
onde consigo uma guitarrista 👱 dessas pra mim? 😚
Qualquer loja de instrumentos,stratocaster
@@hegelarthur ele se referiu a mulher kakakakakakaa

Just beautiful
