First 2 Iron Maiden albums are my favorite. I bought both their first albums in 1981 and was blown away. A True Metal legend is gone, but not forgotten. Thanks Paul. RIP.
I met Paul Di'anno exactly 30 years ago to this very day. Back in 1994, I was a drum tech for a band out of the bay area called Vicious Rumors. We signed on to do a 6 week tour through Europe called "The Ultimate Power Force Tour". The band were Metal Church, Vicious Rumors, Paul's band "Killers" and Zodiac Mindwarp. The tour started on October 22,1994 but we flew into Amsterdam the day before the tour started. That's when I met Paul and the rest of the guys in his band. I didn't know it at the time but both band and crew members of V.R. and Killers were about to spend every waking moment for the next 6 weeks together. We all lived on a double decker tour bus touring Europe and having an absolute blast! Paul was a wild man but had a heart of gold. Being a big Maiden fan, I was a bit in aww of him. But he was always so cool to me. We had some really great sober and "unsober" times. Dare I say by the end of the tour, I could honestly say Paul Di'anno was my friend. I will never forget that final day when at the airport Paul and I hugged each other and said "I love your brother"! That's a hug I can still feel to to this very sad day. Rest In Peace my friend. Sadly, we have now lost the frontmen for 3 of the 4 bands on that tour. Carl Albert (Vicious Rumors) Mike Howe (Metal Church) and Paul Di'anno (Killers).
Very cool, dude was actually a damn good vocalist, always hurt me that he didn't bounce back straight away, he, Dennis Stratton, Clive could have created a Killer heavy metal band, and in fact they attempted a band called Gog-Magog which included Janick Gers, oddly enough, it would have worked out if they didn't choose that goofy band name...should have just called themselves Killers...alas...RIP Paul Di'anno ~ Up The Irons for Paul!
It's just too cringe, and any story like this is a fan fiction story, not an employee story. Employees work, if ur not working ur wasting someone else's money, and all the millions of solely men who didn't work but just chilled with the band and got paid for doing nothing... You are a dime a dozen as that was the fantasy, never reality.
@@rmac3217 Thank you for your comment rmac3217. In response, all I can say is that It genuinely makes me sad to know that you have to live on this earth with yourself 24/7. What a truly pathetic existence! Best of luck to you.
Gonna go and blast WRATHCHILD loud and proud in memory of Paul. In fact I'm gonna go blast the first two Maiden albums which are 2 of GREATEST additions to what became heavy metal. "CUZ I'M A..... WRATHCHILD!"
A buddy of mine worked at Capitol Records and brought home that first Iron Maiden record. It was Paul Di'Anno's voice that initially drew me in. RIP Paul Di'Anno.
I listened to both the iron maiden and killers album today randomly and sang them out loud while cleaning my house lol. Never knew he died until now very strange how I chose to listen to them as I've not thought about them in many years.....rip Paul
1980, i was 12. I walked the ditches of our town, back lanes, walked the highway to gather pop, beer bottles, aluminum cans, any recycle I could find. 5 and 10 cents at a time, I came up with the $10 to buy the first iron Maiden album with Paul Di'Anno, my very first album. In 2007 Paul played in our city and i got to tell him that to his face.
Thanks for this great eulogy. As an Iron Maiden fan, this means a lot to me. I still listen to the music that he made not only in Iron Maiden, but also in his solo albums. In spite of how underrated he was, he inspired and influenced so many other artists and people are now just realizing this in the wake of his passing. Keep on rocking, brother. Heaven has gained another great.
I met him once and he had a great sense of humour and was really nice talking to. I loved Iron Maidens first three albums and Paul sang on the first two. You will be greatly missed by a lot of fans! 💜
Man those first two Maiden albums are absolutely sacred and colored so much of my life back then. He was only 66 years old too? Damn. Rest in Peace man and thank you. Cue: Strange World.
Saw Paul with my son at the prince bandroom in at st kilda Melbourne earlier this year. I’m so grateful I got to see him play . The place was bouncing when he did’ phantom of the opera’. Rest in peace, Paul, you are a legend.
Bruce and the band had a moment of silence for Paul this evening in St Paul, MN.. Very nice things said and well wishes to his time here and now to his spirt. R.I.P. Paul.
Killers was the first Metal Album I ever heard. I borrowed it from a friend. It changed my life. It was like discovering oxygen for the first time. I had to get all the metal in the world after that. I was 16, 41 years ago. I am lifting a Kentucky Bourbon and remembering Pail Di'Anno .
This bothered me all day today after hearing about it last night. I loved those first 2 albums as my oldest brother Bill got me into Maiden with those albums back in the mid 80s when I was just 9 or 10 years old. RIP Paul and RIP to my bro Bill. If there is a heaven hopefully my bro gets to meet his hero Paul Di'Anno.
Just played my wife Strange world with Paul singing, she loved it "what an amazing singer" Then played her Peace of Mind- she said he's got a great voice but Paul was much better. I personnel think Paul's voice on Iron Maidens first album is perfect -punk, metal and full of soul touched by Angels with some demon in there. Perfect metal singer
I always loved his bands he fronted. Maiden or Battlezone to all his others he graced us with. Just a shame to lose another staple from my teen years that I listened to back then and still do today. Just last week i was cranking Children of Madness by Battlezone on my speakers and Killers from Iron Maiden back to back. Rest In Peace brother..
Still and forever my favorite Maiden vocalist. I remember buying a Maiden concert compilation as a kid and expected to see Dickinson, but was blown away when I saw Di’Anno on stage.
Paul. You were one of my heroes along with Bonn Scott and Peter Steele. For me, as a Metal / Punk you were somebody I looked up to. I even dress like Paul, the black denim, the leather and the studded belts. I hope you have found peace and broken chains from your health problems. I will always treasure your albums. Hopefully one day we can meet and sing together in a better place.
16 years old when Iron Maiden’s album came out blown away posters on my wall with Judas Priest and Motörhead. Tour at the Palladium in NYC was fantastic!!!!!
dude was true to the bone. music above business .. consistent metal heart, couldn't image id get that sad, farewell dear friend, i ve grown old listening to your voice and will go on .. ill give back when we meet in hell sir Di Anno. RIP Paul Di'Anno.
Nostalgic Maiden! I’ll always remember getting the first 2 albums at 14 and feeling like I was on top of the world listening to Ides of March. When disappointments come those 1st 2 albums make me feel like I can conquer the world! Thank you Di’Anno for everything ❤
I literally yelled Noooo when I read the news!! Paul Brought that grungy, punky vibe to maiden that Dickinson, though a legendary vocalist in his own, couldn't quite replicate, songs like Killers, Iron maiden and purgatory with dianno on vocals will always hold a special place in my heart, you were a legend Paul, always were. RIP brother ✌️❤️🤘
I envy him. He is now in a far better place than us. He is amongst friends and long, lost loved ones now. Up there along with Ronnie, Lemmy, Randy, Jeff, Dimebag, Eddie and countless other Heavy Metal Legends. Hopefully we too can join them again somewhere else in better times.
He's Running Free, like a Drifter, in a Strange World that will be his Sanctuary and not a Purgatory. If we meet in Another Life, I will Remember Tomorrow. R.I.P. A true Killer and Prodigal Son. Iron Maiden Fan Forever.
Wtf , just 2 days after i know him as a vocalist of iron maiden before BD . I start searching about him after i heard Remember tomorrow for the first time 2 days ago on 20 oct 2024 And on my fav list song right now . His vocal give goosebumps . Legend
R.I.P. Paul. You will be missed here. The first self titled album and Killers were my introduction to metal. Such a unique voice and style. I still remember being bummed when he no longer was with Maiden. Condolences to his friends and family. Thank you Paul for all the great music you left us.
RIP Paul you Kickstartered iron maiden and there will never be another singer like you.ive seen you live at Dunstable queen's way hall doing the two albums with the band a good night out with the irons will never forget that night.😮😊
Some of my favorite work from Maiden were their first 2 albums. Highly underrated, IMO. I very much enjoyed watching him perform with Gus G recently. Very sad day, indeed. Time to up the irons for Paul Di'Anno. Rust in Peace.
The Master of Metal-Punk ! A great lead singer and front man who defined Iron maiden and had his own career with great albums such as Murder One and Living Dead, a great contribution to music, we will miss You Paul. Iron Maiden, KILLERS, Maiden Japan (Live Album) R.I.P. You Legend.

Even a wheelchair couldn't stop him a true Rockstar hail a legend rip 💔
must be shocking for you that Mr. Phil Collins did the same and a longer tour ... and he is still alive... "metal" *lol*
@@dej1971 Not very shocking to know that the last interesting thing Phil Collins was involved in was The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway
@@dej1971still lived longer than Liam Payne
Rest in peace Paul Di'Anno 🤘🤘🤘
Phantom of the Opera is one of my favourite Maiden songs ever and that will never change.
From his era, I really like Wrathchild the most. R.I.P Paul
@@coldblizzard5880 Fantastic song, an absolute ripper of a song for sure 🤘

Conduit for energy, kinetic, power, connection, because the Metal World started playing early Maiden in memory on his passing on
@@mannybravo237 that seems like a pretty plausible explanation my dude 🤘

RIP Paul, we will ALWAYS remember you through your music. You are sadly gone too soon, but you will never be forgotten.
Okay, this one hurts BAD! RIP Paul and thank you for one last album!!

Rest in power Paul Di’anno
Right,and rest in memoriam
Without Paul the first few albums wouldn't have been as good. His singing in those days were amazing and he introduced so many to Maiden. RIP Paul
As we know. Legends are immortal. Rest easy.
Killers is so awesome, my brother who's older than me, played the LP since we were kids. R.I.P Paul.
I love those first two records
Rest in Peace Wrathchild...
He’s running free now
Had the pleasure of meeting him in a pub in London about 30 years ago, RIP PAUL🤟😢♥️

RIP WRATHCHILD!!

Hope he's rocking in heaven
And reunited with Clive!

RIP Paul DiAnno.I will never forget your two fantastic albums with Iron Maiden,but above all your Italian origins
Tragic loss....DiAnno was so underrated. He was the definitive voice of the NWOBHM. Very sad news.
Oh man, R.I.P. what a legend. I don't think I'm ever NOT singing Remember Tomorrow.
That was a really nice tribute Rock Feed.
This is such a sad time. Paul will always be remembered and loved.
RIP Paul Dianno.
And thank you.
Killers was my intro to rock music when i was 13 , bought this album - went to the gig and was hooked - he was my hero - sad, sad day when he died
I never gave a shit what anyone said. The first two Iron Maiden albums were their best. Now, I believe it more than ever.
Brother, it's okay to be wrong. That's what social media is for. Publicly announcing you don't know what you're talking about.
The first two albums can't be covered the same that's how good they are
100%
Bang on!
100%
I always loved his bands he fronted. Maiden or Battlezone to all his others he graced us with. Just a shame to lose another staple from my teen years that I listened to back then and still do today.

Very Nice guy had several nice conversations in the 80s.

RiP Paul... Saw him perform once in the late 80's in the UK. Genuine guy and great performer and singer. 'Another Life' awaits...
I was lucky enough to talk with him a few times. RIP.
Paul Dianno was replaced with Bruce Dickinson in the Fall of 1981. He didn’t “leave the band” in 1982 as you say at the beginning of this video.
I envy him.
He is now in a far better place than us.
He is amongst friends and long, lost loved ones now.
Up there along with Ronnie, Lemmy, Randy, Jeff, Dimebag, Eddie and countless other Heavy Metal Legends.
Hopefully we too can join them again somewhere else in better times.
