God bless you Clive, it was an honour to watch you! You are one of my hero's and you will be remembered! My condolences to the family & his friends, he was an exceptional person!
Bass players are the tits bud. The bassist and timekeeper are the most important pieces to ANY ensemble. And I'll throw hands to anyone who says otherwise
@@mauromartyn7941 Nicko has some excellent moments too, they’re both great drummers. Caught Somewhere in Time is one of the best Nicko tracks in my opinion.
It's also a little known fact that it was Di'anno who sank the Belgrano, he had to leave Maiden because Her Majesty's Government needed him as a sonic weapon.
+maidenrulz73 Yep. Nicko is vastly inferior and doesn't hold a candle to Clive's savagery. The stated reason for kicking him out was bullshit too. "Substance abuse problems" my ass. Everyone was going through shit like that, even Bruce has stated it himself. To this day, they haven't given a proper explanation for why they sacked the poor guy.
+ShadowStrangle55 The greatest tragedy in the history of Metal. Nicko is a joke compared to Clive. I saw 2 nights of the Powerslave tour (the nights they recorded in Long Beach for Live After Death) The drumming on Clive's songs was pathetic. Nicko can't pull off any of Clive's songs. I don't care how many fucking albums they put out, the first 3 with Clive were vastly superior to anything since.
+György Hirschléger Yeah, Steve is the overlord of the band. Him and Rod Smallwood most likely came to a collective decision to replace Clive with Nicko. I'm also suspicious that Nicko may have influenced their decision as well, since he was their roadie at the time. Of course, they all blame it on "substance abuse".
In memory of my brother Michael's 1st anniversary today taken so young from the evil that is cancer. The power of music hits extra heavy today, a huge old school Iron Maiden fan he was and am so thankful he introduced to me to such amazing music many years ago when I was a young kid. R.I.P big brother until the day we reunite and rock again 🙏❤
I Totally agree. This IS Iron Maiden. They should be always in their twenties, but unfortunatelly, years pass on for them and for all of us ! I've also listened this song at least hundreds of times
that would be 2000 for me then, hum it walking the dog among many other great songs. People probably think I am nuts doing air guitar with no headphones. What is that guy hearing? Enjoying memories
Yep. The way I see it, nobody can sing the songs on the first 2 albums better than Paul and nobody can sing the rest better than Bruce. Just my opinion. Although, I have seen a live version of "Killers" that Bruce nailed pretty well, but Paul still owns it!
I have to agree, some, not all versions but ones with Bruce were he screams all over it are just unnecessary, I know screaming is his thing but there are times when when Bruce needs to just hold back on the screams, especially on the Paul era stuff.
I hate the fact that nearly all Maiden compilations that include songs from the DiAnno era are LIVE versions with Bruce on vocals. These are the DEFINITIVE versions of the songs.
I can't believe people waste their time by deciding who was better. Bruce is brilliant, but Paul absolutely killed this!!!! And Clive was phenomenal on the drums too!!!
People often forget about Steve Harris, but he is/was significantly more important in the history of iron maiden than any other member of the band, without him, there would be no iron maiden Steve Harris=Legend
absolute gold! Dianno was awesome, debut album and killers right there with number of the beast and piece of mind as the best MAIDEN albums imo

I once saw an interview in which Bruce recalls his days in Samson. They were playing a gig with other bands and he says that when Iron Maiden played this song, he was speechless. Definitely one of Maiden top songs ever. A masterpiece!
No Maiden performance will ever top this. There is just so amazing energy in it, an air of anger, ambition, violence and hope. No theatrics, no huge stadiums, just pure heart and great playing. And, of course, Paul Di Anno whose voice I consider among the best rock voices ever, plus the impeccable drum machine called Clive Burr, may he rest in peace. Bruce is an excellent singer and Nicko is a good technician (although rhythmically somewhat unstable), but that line up was just the best, the true Iron Maiden. Harsh, dirty, punky, street metal - and it has aged so much better than the Bruce stuff of the stadium era.
Look Paul’s era is great and he’s one of my favorite metal singers but there’s no way stuff like Running Free and Sanctuary are better than stuff like Powerslave and Moonchild And the theatrics really bring the songs to life
@@davidhooks6325 I bought the 1st & 2nd album when they were released. Saw them live on their first album tour & met band members. D'ianno was the sound of Maiden. Their punk/metal sound something new. After D'ianno left, my interest faded, they sounded very much like many other groups of the time. If i listen to Maiden, its only with D'ianno.
@@Paul-hl8ygShit dude I love Di’Anno too. Both him and Bruce have things that the others don’t Paul has the rougher “street” metal voice, Bruce has a voice for telling epic stories Paul has a more relaxed stage presence, Bruce is more energetic and is bringing the songs to life Paul has more rebellious “punk” lyrics, Bruce’s era has more deeper epic, story lyrics Like I said both have things that the other doesn’t. And I totally understand why you’d like Di’Anno the most; this song got me into Maiden- I didn’t like Bruce’s vocals for a long time
@@davidhooks6325 I presume you are much younger than me? lol. Hence your like of Maiden in more recent years. As i said, i was there at the beginning & liked that Maiden sound, it was very different with D'ianno. To me Bruce sounds like a very typical metal vocalist & in my opinion, changed Maiden for the worst. As i say, i only listen to D'ianno Maiden 🇬🇧
Πόσο τυχεροί είμαστε που τους έχουμε δει,που έχουμε μεγαλώσει με αυτές τις μουσικαρες και πόσο άτυχοι που πλέον δεν βγαίνουν τέτοια γκρουπ και τέτοια μουσική.
Their harmonics are just unmatched.. pure magic.. Dave and Adrian are two of the very best and Clive Burr was so under rated.. He was an amazing drummer.
For me, also the best song ever. Di'Anno wasted his potential. But Bruce is also rocking for 40 years now! That is an unreal, if you had to choose for 2 of 40 years...
Paul Di’Anno … too rebel for this ever best version of phantom ! Life is made of special occasions, this is one of them ! The best musicians with this inspired vocalist ! Best of the best, thanks.
If you never saw Maiden with Paul, you would not understand what a HUGE loss he was. Bruce did okay, give me Paul ANY day of the week. This version of the band wiped the floor with everything around it! Superb.
Still my favourite Maiden song after 42 years. Jaw dropped when I first heard it and even though it's straightforward E pentatonic soloing over it, it is still a tour de force. No wonder they slowed it down a bit, this is about 200BPM!!
Lemme aware you on THE real GREATEST rhythm section ever in metal. Atheist with the Unquestionable Presence lineup. Roger Patterson wrote that album those bass lines before he died at age 22 some even at age 20 and Tony Choy (who recorded Patterson's bass lines) had to omit and rewrite a few lines because he couldn't play them. Steve Flynn had some amazing drum work too. Not to mention around the time of the RAVAGE demo they were already way ahead of many. th-cam.com/video/-jmRLCCSZaQ/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/A7uD9WoTJTI/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/rCcC3AQgKOQ/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/TdgsGhwZgXo/w-d-xo.html
Leandrito Arroz Haha I know. I think Paul did a decent job on the vocals, though Bruce had some amazing perfomances of songs from the first two albums. Anyway for me the vocals of this song do not matter much, the guitar and bass are what made it my favourite ;)
These comments are so stupid...... please explain why he is the best... in fact explain why hes better than nicko..... aside from clive burr bashing the crap out of the cymbals too often I mean....... and this comment also means burr was better than lars ulrich, neil peart, michael portnoy, cozy powell, tommy aldrich hell the list goes on (except dave grohl who is laughably overrated)
"Phantom of the Opera", la canción que a mis 17 años escuchaba cinco veces seguidas antes de irme a dormir.¡Alucinante! Mi canción favorita de La Doncella
Possibly one of the most amazing live performances by anybody at any time in musical history! You could feel the electricity coming out these guys through the computer screen!
I saw this line up and can confirm it was exactly that pure sublime electric. I always go back to this cos not much else can live up to it. This captured a special chemistry a very special moment in time. RIP Clive Burr
The style of Iron Maiden and Judas Priest, twin guitar, amazing synchronized/harmonized solos by all instruments is a lost art. The two masters of metal bands cannot be imitated by anyone.
I agree with you, it sounds amazing and these bands specialize in it. Maiden and Priest are two of my favorite bands. If you like that harmonizing guitar you should check out some Thin Lizzy (maybe you already have). Those guys invented the sound and rock pretty hard. They may not be metal but they were definitely a huge influence.
Paul and Bruce, what can I say about them two magnificent singers with their very own amazing style ! I just can't choose between them ! The instuments are also amazing as always !
@@steveharris99it really depends on the era, Dickinson had a more theatrical singing due to the thematic changes of the album , but for early maiden Dianno still the best
Paul, I will be with you forever! When the song of Iron Maden was really raw. Thank you for being part of this special moment of our lives!! I hope your Iron Maden fellows are supporting you as you deserve.
Wow,totally awesome and intense! No other rock band touches this version of Iron Maiden and their unique combination of explosive punk rage and brilliant instrummetal power, that was lost without Paul Dianno and Clive Burr.
Living in the U.S. I didn't discover Maiden until 1982, so I am a Dickinson guy, but all respect to Di'Anno! He was a force of his own. Up the Irons!! *
Still in high school at the time, and living in Queens, New York, I became a Maiden fan in 1980 when their debut LP was released, as I was getting into the NWOBHM scene. The early '80's ruled for heavy metal! When The Number of the Beast was released in 1982, I was blown away by Bruce's vocal abilities.
Same but I discovered Maiden a year ago (I'm a teen that's the reason). Well, I heard things about Eddie and Bruce Dickinson and some songs like Afraid to shoot strangers, Fear of the Dark or Aces High, but I became a fan a year ago. I discovered Iron Maiden with Dickinson and when I listen to Paul or Blaze, I respect them and they're cool they did great job in Maiden but Bruce is Bruce.
Maiden had not completely developed it's sounds yet, which is why I love the early stuff. It's raw with no real rules. They were breaking ground at this time.
This is Paul's song for me forever. Like Killers, Bruce just can't give this song that brutal edge that Paul could. Too bad the Beast fucked himself up so bad. But you have these couple songs that noone can ever replace you. Take care Paul!
Tuve la suerte de vivir en una generación de increíble riqueza musical y variedad de bandas y estilos, que incluyeron las décadas 70 y 80, más lo que ya había del 60, y los 90, que no estuvieron nada mal. Mi vida fue increíblemente mejor gracias a todos esos genios que fueron unos grandes aliados y compañeros de ruta. Hoy veo que se van muriendo varios, y siento mucha nostalgia de los buenos momentos compartidos, pero sobre todo una enorme gratitud de haber sido contemporáneo de todos ellos. Saludos a todos desde Argentina.
Man, this is just perfect.. Great guitar/bass tone, Clive's intense drumming, Paul's rock n' roll vocals. This is how heavy metal is supposed to sound.
I was 13 years old, when I heard this song for the first time and then I bought myself a six string. Now I am 55 years old and I still love to play this song with them as the third guitar payer. THIS IS WHAT METAL IS ALL ABOUT.....
Oi Paulo, posso ver que você gosta da boa música. Recomendo a vocês a seguinte homenagem ao IRON MAIDEN: th-cam.com/video/peAmeGGlQek/w-d-xo.html Você concorda que é a melhor homenagem a essa banda?
Fantastic track...I think Phantom of the Opera really show cases what a classic maiden track should be. Clive, Dennis and Paul all helped get Maiden off the ground and we should not try and air brush them out of maiden history. Maybe one day get Paul, Bruce and Blaze all on the same stage singing together would be epic!!
Di'anno owns this song compared to the way Bruce sings it. The entirety of Killers and Iron Maiden was fit for Di'anno. That being said, Di'Anno could never sing most of the Maiden classics the way Bruce does.
I remember in 1981 buying Women in Uniform on 12" and there was a Live version of Phantom of the Opera on the B side. Me and my mates were totaly in awe.This was the raw iron Maiden that we liked.

I'm a Bruce fan, but Paul was simply brilliant during his time with Maiden.
I agree buddy, why people loose time discusing if we can enjoy two versions of the same great band?
To me doesn't Luke Bruce's voice... Paul was the Best and the Beast
and cocaine was brilliiant too excsive
Agree
Kicks ass on this particular version
As a bass player i cant believe steve harris is playing that song at that tempo and dont get tired. He is a legend
And he uses .50 flatwound strings!!!!! That's heavy!!!!!!!
Amazing stamina.
Bass players are the tits bud. The bassist and timekeeper are the most important pieces to ANY ensemble. And I'll throw hands to anyone who says otherwise
Steve is Maiden

Clive Burr was an absolute speed freak on drums, legendary. Tight musicianship on display in an absolute masterpiece.
I know! But Nico plays the 'toms' like a freak!
@@mauromartyn7941 Nicko has some excellent moments too, they’re both great drummers. Caught Somewhere in Time is one of the best Nicko tracks in my opinion.
Nicko is cool but he doesn't sound as good as Clive for early IM songs
@@bbadam19Clive has a really cool swing in his playing, reminds me a bit of Ian Pace

And tickle someone to death

Still in high school at the time, and living in Queens, New York, I became a Maiden fan in 1980 when their debut LP was released, as I was getting into the NWOBHM scene. The early '80's ruled for heavy metal! When The Number of the Beast was released in 1982, I was blown away by Bruce's vocal abilities.
Same but I discovered Maiden a year ago (I'm a teen that's the reason). Well, I heard things about Eddie and Bruce Dickinson and some songs like Afraid to shoot strangers, Fear of the Dark or Aces High, but I became a fan a year ago.
I discovered Iron Maiden with Dickinson and when I listen to Paul or Blaze, I respect them and they're cool they did great job in Maiden but Bruce is Bruce.
Today 18 September 2023 I listened to this masterpiece again and I still get chills!
Ghost brought me here, just want to be sure that this is brilliant and ever will! Up the irons! ❤️🍻
I've probably watched this a thousand times, no joke. Never gets old. 🇬🇧🤘Up The Irons 🇬🇧🤘
Gets better every year!!!!!
Maiden had not completely developed it's sounds yet, which is why I love the early stuff. It's raw with no real rules. They were breaking ground at this time.
This is one of the greatest songs of all time on in my opinion the greatest debut album of all time !!!
Yeah man
Dennis Stratton
I think Led Zeppelin 1 and The Doors are unbeatable in that regard but I will admit, this album is a personal favorite and very, very good too!
Paul voice and dave's guitar rules this song🤘🎸
RIP Clive!!!! 🤘😎🤘
Simply AMAZING!!!! Early Iron Maiden was the best!! Clive Burr was monstrous on drums!!!
Regards from Italy
Clive era davvero il meglio!Ciao compaesano
Sono d'accordo! Ciao a te 😉👍
This is the best version of this song.. Not the current versions.. This is THE VERSION
Who are the 1.8k knuckleheads that didn’t like this?!?
This or else the slightly older live version, still with Dennis Stratton. It's from an EP.
The drumming on this is phenomenal, wow, i love the solos too, just amazing ❤❤
Their best song. Paul and Clive are excellent on this live.
This is Paul's song for me forever. Like Killers, Bruce just can't give this song that brutal edge that Paul could. Too bad the Beast fucked himself up so bad. But you have these couple songs that noone can ever replace you. Take care Paul!
The best version by a country mile! Paul Di'anno was amazing in his day!
I love the raw energy, and Steve Harris is my favourite bass player/musician of all time
Tuve la suerte de vivir en una generación de increíble riqueza musical y variedad de bandas y estilos, que incluyeron las décadas 70 y 80, más lo que ya había del 60, y los 90, que no estuvieron nada mal. Mi vida fue increíblemente mejor gracias a todos esos genios que fueron unos grandes aliados y compañeros de ruta. Hoy veo que se van muriendo varios, y siento mucha nostalgia de los buenos momentos compartidos, pero sobre todo una enorme gratitud de haber sido contemporáneo de todos ellos. Saludos a todos desde Argentina.
The best live version of this song of all time. Recent live performances are too slow.
I'd like to know how Steve Harris' fingers feel about that!
Indeed. Album verision is good, but this is one of those times in which the live owns it all.
When this first came out it was the fastest stuff I ever heard. It blew my 12 year-old ears right the f*** off.
I think Live After Death version is the best
The version on the B side of women in uniform maxisingle is even better, i think.
RIP Clive Burr.
Paul Hanney
He was a monster behind the kit
Seriously, RIP. A real ripper.
Clive Burr was a Legend!!! RIP Clive!!!! I'm only 27 years old and my father, who is a drummer, has taught me and showed me all your art!!!!!
They all look so young And sound absolutely fantastic.
Man, this is just perfect.. Great guitar/bass tone, Clive's intense drumming, Paul's rock n' roll vocals. This is how heavy metal is supposed to sound.
The first 2 Maiden albums are still by far the best albums in Metal history, and no doubt are Maiden's best work
Ryan Thompson Guitarist Im biased towards number of the beast but I'm also a product of 1980s MTV so yeah LOL
Maiden's best work? are you kidding me?
Shut up old geezer
Until The Number of the Beast came out
No Doubt
Oh how I miss the 80s. What a time to grow up and appreciate music.
Maiden never looked or sounded better .!.!.!
Best Iron Maiden line-up and the best song
Paul Di'Anno Masterclass,,,,Long live Master...Long Live Iron Legends.
I was 13 years old, when I heard this song for the first time and then I bought myself a six string. Now I am 55 years old and I still love to play this song with them as the third guitar payer. THIS IS WHAT METAL IS ALL ABOUT.....
Love this era of Iron Maiden
I still think the first two Maiden records were their finest,so raw and full of energy.
A voz do Paul D'ianno era única... Inigualável...
Sem dúvidas!!!
Non Bruce Lanche por merd
Uma mistura de punk com rock
@@fabioc7368 vdd tá, tenho a msm impressão
Oi Paulo, posso ver que você gosta da boa música. Recomendo a vocês a seguinte homenagem ao IRON MAIDEN: th-cam.com/video/peAmeGGlQek/w-d-xo.html Você concorda que é a melhor homenagem a essa banda?
Fantastic Clive !!!
Paul Di'Anno é e sempre será a voz do Iron Maiden...O melhor!!
Nao tem o q falar, Paul é outro nivel...eu comecei ouvindo Bruce, mas quando tocou essa porra com o Diano eu enlouqueci.
Concordo plenamente 🤘
Paul é muito mais vocalista! 👏👏👏👏🎶🎶🎶🎶🎤🎤🎤🎤
eu poderia concordar com todos vocês, mas aí seríamos todos falando besteiras.
@@keltonoliveira4342 di anno combina mais com o estilo meio "terror" da banda
Best version on drum speed for this song. Rip clive.
Best live version of this song ... amazing 🤘🏼
Seeing Steve giving a recording like performace live is just absurd, he isn´t just show, the guy is actully that good.
Best Metal guitar trio going! Nobody really comes close..
Fantastic track...I think Phantom of the Opera really show cases what a classic maiden track should be. Clive, Dennis and Paul all helped get Maiden off the ground and we should not try and air brush them out of maiden history. Maybe one day get Paul, Bruce and Blaze all on the same stage singing together would be epic!!
Di'anno owns this song compared to the way Bruce sings it. The entirety of Killers and Iron Maiden was fit for Di'anno. That being said, Di'Anno could never sing most of the Maiden classics the way Bruce does.
+jtgoheels Exactly, to each their own.
+jtgoheels that's why Steve harris is god
same goes for Blaze, lord of the flies, afraid to shoot strangers etc sound way better in Blaze interpretation
sexpistol66 Sure Paul would have made N.of the best, excellent. just listen to killers, wrath child.
Cesar Benavides Invaders and Gangland maybe Run to the hills, Bruce owns number of the beast and Hallowed be thy name
I remember in 1981 buying Women in Uniform on 12" and there was a Live version of Phantom of the Opera on the B side. Me and my mates were totaly in awe.This was the raw iron Maiden that we liked.
This one is a classic, a masterpiece rock song.👌
