The average life expectancy of a spitfire pilot during the Battle of Britain was an astonishing four weeks.
yeah... 6 months and you are a god among man
Still beats tail gunners. The average life expectancy of a tail gunner was 2 minutes, when it hit the fan.
I'm not buying it
That's not surprising. The same is true of infantryman. If you can survive the first couple of weeks in contact, you have become one of the wolves instead of the sheep.
It's the whole point of Red Flag, Topgun, and MCAGCC Twenty-nine Palms.
@@onearthonelegion Look it up then.
Average life expectancy of a soldier in The Battle of Stalingrad was 24 hours.
Bruce's diction is absolutely amazing. His ability to enunciate through this very fast song so that every word can be understood is wonderful.
More like Bruce Dictionson
Well, it's his native language, what do you expect?
The breath control on this man! Recognize that he is jumping and running around the stage in super tight jeans too!!
They open their recent tour with this song. With a full size inflatable Spitfire hanging and turning above them.
Oh yes I saw it with my own eyes! So so cool!
Yeah, that was sooo awesome. Gave me chills everywhere
Every tour in the last years was opened with this song 😂😂
ROLLING
SCRAMBLING
Yup. Saw them in 2018 on their Legacy of the Beast tour and it was epic.
Flight of Icarus... one of Bruce's best screams of all time.
not just Bruce's, but one of the best rock screams of all time. He holds that note for ever.
Check out the Truth Surge cover of that one. He did a great job
Nice, can't wait for Infinite Dreams!
Metal with a history lesson. Love it
Loving the month of Maiden, with the month of June coming up, how about a month of Judas Priest. Rob Halford is another great singer to sink your teeth into. Cheers from Australia!
This ☝🏻️💯
My all time favorite by Iron Maiden. The high adrenalin urgency of this song on every level is so perfect - IMO if anything is missing its a third verse. The song is over so fast!
Bruce has an operatic range. Considering he had throat cancer, he can still hold a note ,👍 Looking forward to seeing them this year. It's great to see how Maiden have gone from a niche NWOBHM band to being a British institution and being on postal stamps. Up the Irons!
You're right. In school when teaching about WW2 and the Battle of Britain you could throw on Aces High. Or teaching about the Crimean War, you could throw on The Trooper. The kids would love it ,😄
Seen Maiden 4 times,worth every penny,they are fantastic live!
Do Rime of the Ancient Mariner, mate! :)
This!
Live After Death version.
Heck yeah. Dudes a vocalist's favorite vocalist in many cases.
I don't get the hype around that song. It is probably the only song I don't like from Iron Maiden :)
@@MikaTarkela To each its own.
I really like the story, the journey the song takea you on and the entire atmosphere around the performance and story.
Makuasioita sano, makuasioita.
The intro speech by Winston Churchill might be the GOAT.
The pace and tempo of this song always put me into the mind of one of these pilots. One of my favorite maiden songs of all time.
I think the average life expectancy for an RAF pilot in the Battle Of Britain was something like four weeks, very brave men. This is one of my favourite Iron Maiden songs, and they all look so young in this video :-)
Yeah, young and beautiful. Especially BrucieL
Hope you get to "flight of Icarus" before the month of maiden ends 👍
Ken you should dive into the somewhere in time album ,you dont have to make a video about it just listen to the whole album on your free time... its a masterpiece
I had that poster in my room in high school. Love that album.
Great reaction Ken! Now it's time for the Talisman, live from El Vivo, please?! One of the best Bruce performances
Yeah man. Whats the hold up? You’ve done enough of the classics already.
Would love to get tour take on their song Revelations. So criminally neglected by reactors.
Agreed! This is probably my favorite Maiden song, Up the Irons!
Its nearly always the 10 same songs!
This is Bruce Dickinson at the ABSOLUTE HEIGHT of his powers as a vocalist.
It was on Chemical Wedding ;)
@@Maverral That was a masterpiece because of fantastic production. Bruce was at his peak until 1984.
I love this song. Bruce sings in a way that make you think that you're in the cockpit.
Ive loved Iron Maiden since I first heard them, when I was 13. You, unbelievably, make me appreciate them even more😀
Have a listen to the Shock Tactics album by Samson. Earth Mother and Bloodlust are my all time favorite Bruce Dickinson songs.
Their harmonizing guitars always amaze me. Rhyme Of The Ancient Mariner Live in NJ, The Clansman and Fear Of The Dark Live in Rio.
more iron maiden please
Love these reactions, Don´t Stop doing metal, have been a subscriber since you didnt even have 20,000 subs
That first Aces High at 3:31 still gives me good bumps after 30 years.
Hey ken...thankyou for the honest reaction...i'm very happy and impatiently waiting for the next maiden reactions
Aces High is my favourite Maiden tune and you are so respectful, I love it. Great react!
Bruce Dickinson - Tears of the dragon
I think, this is his best work ever.
Nah! Omega
It is one of his best songs for sure. Would be nice to see a reaction to it.
Yesss! Live version form 2005 is incredible!!
th-cam.com/video/z7UhZZLD1vY/w-d-xo.html
Yes, the Live Version from Tribuzy Concert!
Definitely Tears of the Dragon live from São Paulo 1999
Yaaay! More Iron Maiden. Thank you ❤
One of my favourite riffs ever
Perfect reaction. Yes I agree, Maiden should be a fun teaching tool for history. Well done!
Banger,classic!
Thems Maiden boys ..always got me scowls from grandpa..Fly to liiiive,..Aaacesss Hiiighh!! Glorious!
loved, just loved, one of my fave song
I remember back in the early 80's when I was first getting into music. I had heard the band KISS back in the 70's and liked them though I only had 1 album (Rock and Roll Over) by them. I was mostly a fan of top 40 pop music. Madonna, Cyndi Lauper, The Eurythmics, Thomas Dolby, The Cars, The Police, etc. Stuff you would hear daily on the local radio station. I had been introduced to Def Leppard by 1982 or 1983.. whichever year the video for 'Rock of Ages' was released from their Pyromania album. By the end of 1985 into 1986 I was introduced to heavier music by Black Sabbath (with Dio on vocals), Motley Crue (Shout at the Devil album), Dio (The Last In Line album) and my tastes went from pop radio to rock/metal. Somewhere along the way I was also introduced to AC/DC with the Back In Black album, the Fly On The Wall album, and the Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap album.
The reason for this wall of text is to explain that my musical exposure to metal was still in it's infancy.. so to speak.. when I encountered Iron Maiden.. and this song was the very first song from Maiden that I had ever heard. Bruce's vocals and the high-pace gallop of the music on the majority of the Powerslave album was pretty new to me. It combined the best elements of Sabbath, Dio, Crue, Def Leppard, and AC/DC. I was an instant fan and literally wore out as many Maiden cassette tapes as I wore out Dio tapes.
This was all, of course, before I found Metallica with Master of Puppets, Megadeth with Peace Sells, Slayer with Reign in Blood, and Anthrax with Among the Living in 1986-1987.
Somewhere in there after Iron Maiden I found Judas Priest with the Turbo Lover album and in 1988-1989 I found Mercyful Fate with the Melissa album and King Diamond with the Conspiracy album.
It is always fun to travel back in time and relive the journey. I hope you enjoy yours.
I am a little older than you. My journey took the opposite route; from harder to softer music. The joy was (and still is) the same, though.
Best concert opener! In the last tour they had a WW2 replica plane on stage for this song, which they opened the concerts with! Amazing stuff!
One month is not enough.
Love your videos 👍🏻
Bruce is still singing this song with flawless skill! Amazing!
Rolling, turning, diving, doing it again! Damn I love Iron Maiden even more now. I actually watch Doug Helvering on his channel as he does the daily Doug since he's a classic music composer and then I start understanding the keys and other things of the music component.
Full of energy
That last effort of octave by Bruce was beautiful....great end to a great song!
Great reaction! Please do more than a month of Iron Maiden! They have so many good songs!
The Clansman i would definitely recommend that
Iron Maiden - Music that breeds heroes
outro always giving me the chills
Love your videos... g'day from Australia
nice reacts! wasted years and fear of the dark, two lncredible songs of maiden for your next reacts. regards from 🇨🇭
"Yet another reason Bruce Almighty Dickinson is a vocal GOD" More specifically He is THE vocal GOD!!!!!!!!!!! UP THE IRONS!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
I loved my Aces high concert tee! This song was early morning prep kitchen music back in my handsome days. Hah! I'm going through your library of reactions to Maiden and if you haven't checked out "Revelations" yet, I highly recommend it.
Good reaction... please do some more maiden. Anything is great. Up the Irons
Bruce is a history teacher !
She might go down as the best metal singer ever. I say this as a former metal singer. I don't know if I'll ever be able to sing like that again. It's good to see someone carrying the torch.
Can confirm that the average life expectancy of a Battle of Britain pilot was 4 weeks. Some only had about 10hrs of flying time under their belts
Legends
Possibly my favourite Maiden song.
Bruce's KGON shirt. Oregon radio baby. Back in the day when music was actually music.
One word wow
Powerslave, powerslave, powerslave, powerslave.....
🤘😎🤘
As Richard Burton says in The Longest Day, "The problem with being one of the few is that we keep getting fewer". The problem was new pilots. At the height of the Battle of Britain, pilots with as little as eight weeks' training were thrown into the heat of battle. Spitfires and Hurricanes were fitted with 303 machine guns. The German planes had large calibre cannons. The 303 went through ammunition quickly so a Spitfire would have about 30 seconds worth of ammunition on board. Inexperienced pilots would fire all their ammunition in one go whereas experienced pilots would fire in one or two second bursts. Without any ammunition, the new pilots became sitting ducks
If you're ever in Miami, I recommend visiting Rock N' Roll Ribs. It's the drummer's restaurant where he performs live with local and famous musicians as often as he can. There are tons of videos of the performances on TH-cam.
as a teen i was really stoked to see bruce wearing the tshirt of our local rock station.
next tour he came back tio town wearing a competitors shirt and ranted about kgon going pop :D
LESGOOOOOOOO
Do Children of the Damned and 22 Acacia Avenue. Bruce is THE metal singer.
While Dio was alive he wasn’t THE metal singer
One of the best books on the subject is Marcel Julian's "Battle of Britain". What the RAF and the people of England faced and eventually overcame against Germany is nothing short of miraculous, and a huge strategic blunder by Hitler.
Glad you did the video and not a live version. I love Bruce but he has a really hard time pulling this one off live. Anyone with good links to live versions leave them here please.
No more lies, Dance of death, Wasted Years - this need to happen, please (live , modern versions )
Nice choice, one of my top Maiden songs (having been in the RAF I am bias) Some of the new pilots didn't make it more than one or two sorties and had only hours of flight time in a hurricane or spitfire.
Quick search suggests that life expectancy was about four weeks, which was an improvement over the First World War. One advantage the British pilots had is that if they were shot down and weren't hurt too badly, they could get right back up into the fight. It wasn't uncommon for a pilot to be shot down in the morning and be back up in another plane by mid-afternoon. As terrible as it was, I think I'd pick being a fighter pilot over flying in a bomber.
@Ken, I would love to see you look at some newer stuff. Check out The Red and the Black or Tears of a Clown (about Robin Williams) from Book of Souls (their most recent album). There are good live versions from Wacken Open Air in 2016 or 17.
Maiden classic! Anotherbhigh energy song for sure, the Winston Churchill intro always gets the blood pumping for us Brits 😁
This is probably the most beloved fighter pilot Iron Maiden song. I prefer "Where Eagles Dare" and I was ecstatic when they played it live on their 2018 tour.
Iron Maiden are a "live band" but the majority you've reacted to have been studio versions, and tracks that have been reacted to over and over! 'Infinite Dreams' live at the Birmingham N.E.C 1988 is an amazing live performance, faultless vocals from Bruce, faultless guitar and drums, it deserves a reaction yet nobody (as far as i know) has reacted to it!
Rime of the Ancient Mariner - Flight 666 performance is excellent- need more live Bruce!
i love that intro so much, even as an american the patriotism gives me chills every time.
You should really really really listen to Helloween, latest tours after 2017
"Helloween" or "Keeper Of The Seven Keys" or "How Many Tears"
They "invented" power metal and before imploding for various reasons in 1989, they were about to become as big as Iron Maiden
I recommend ‘losfer words’ . Great vocals
When I was 14 Inwas asked to be the singer for some mates at school.
I apparently was chosen because the guitarist had heard me singing Aces High and nail the final scream. I joined the band and 2 weeks later my voice broke and I ended up a bass baritone.
Still can't hit that final note anymore.
Bruce “Air Raid Siren” Dickinson!
Come on, let go! I can see you holding back... if you want to head bang, then fully head bang 🤘
Caught Somewhere In Time by them 🤘🤘🤘🤟🏻🤟🏻🤘🤘🤟🏻🤘🤘
This was my theme song as a teenager. (In the insanity of my youth my life's ambition was to be a fighter pilot.)
I am really enjoying merry month of Maiden Mr Super Mario! 😛
And I think I picked up saying holy sish kebab from you! 🤣🤣🤣
I love this song! It is an Iron Maiden hit of course, very high energy and beloved by all the fans. I also love it because it was the music in the pc game Carmaggedon that I was playing non stop when I was 18! So I've spend many many hours listening to it! 🙂😛
Read Jack Higgins book Flight of eagles. About two brothers. One flys in the RAF, the other for the luftwaffe. Great book and this song kicks it!
This is actually the studio version of this song. The live footage was made for this video and is probably not in front of an audience. Having said that, this song sounds almost identical live.
Greetings from Germany again...please, please..change it..into 'Merry Years of Maiden'...just love your reactions to my No.1 Iron Maiden...🤘🎸🤘🌈✌
Hi Ken! An amazing documentary if you are interested..The evolution of metal by anthropologist Sam Dunn, really starts at the beginning with Wagner, orchestra music to the different genres of metal...Love you reactions as always!!! Sue
Great song choice! Children of bodom did a good cover of this as well, thats how i came to know the song
I'd love see you react to Deep Purple, in "Concert for group and orchestra" in the Royal Albert Hall, specially the part called Beluna. A very small piece with beautiful soaring vocals by Ian Gillan.
If we look at all of the allied aircrew who flew in the Battle of Britain, there were 2,927 (2,353 of which were Britons), and 510 were killed (407 Britons). The BoB is regarded as lasting between July 10th and October 31st of 1940, for just over 16 weeks. While the “average life expectancy” may be 4 weeks, as I’ve seen in some sources, it’s handy to remember that the people who were shot down just a few days in REALLY skew the averages.
Which is to take nothing from the extraordinary bravery and skill of the pilots who fought it. It’s a damn good thing those Spitfires had such powerful engines and advanced wing structures, to help get those men’s enormous brass balls into the sky.
Request: I'd love to see/hear your reaction/thoughts on pretty much any song by "System of a Down", but you'd probably have a lot of input for their songs "sugar", "war" or "toxicity". Thanks and love the channel :)
When Bruce Bruce as he went by in his previous band Samson entered Iron Maiden I was already a fan having seen them with Paul Di'anno open for Judas Priest in 1981 at the Palladium in NYC on their Killers tour. I then saw the two bands co-headlining tour in 1982 at Madison Sq Garden and although I always loved Rob Halford Dickenson and Maiden blew Priest away. They've been my favorite band since although I haven't really been into their last few albums, they always bring it live every time. I saw them at MSG on their last appearance in the area and Bruce even with the cancer scare never sounded better. I love music, particularly metal and great vocalist. Now my knowledge of being a trained vocalist is limited I know one when I hear one.
Plz dont stop reacting to Iron maiden! Is the greatest band ever walked at earth!!!
Bruce's song that he had to song for his audition into the band is remember tomorrow. I reckon this'd be a good one for you.
Maidens absolute numba one opening song!
In high school (back in the 80’s), I got permission to hand out the lyrics and play the song Alexander the Great in my history class. I got at A+ on that test just because of Iron Maiden. (And I would like to think I changed some teachers from thinking all heavy metal is “satanic”. Lol. I did the same in my english class with Iron Maiden’s, “Ryme of the Ancient Mariner.” My teachers loved it! Any way to teach kids….something! I love them to this day and history!
I wore a Sacred Reich Crimes against humanity shirt to school back then, It had the lyrics printed on the back. My teacher liked the message it sent and wanted to know more about the band
@@GodWeenSatan I love teachers like that! Open minded.
In just a few years, the difference in time since this song was made and the actual Battle of Britain will be the same as from us and the song.
Howard Jones needs a true sit through Sion/ The Blade I dont think there is a live version yet but its a great song
You should react to Where Eagles Dare. One of my favorites Iron Maiden songs.
Would love to see you react to some Maneskin, Italian rock band who just won Eurovision.
They have this throwback rock sound that sounds incredible.
Don’t just do the Eurovision song though as they have put out some awesome stuff.
Covers aside they produce their own stuff with the lead singer doing the lyrics which themselves are something not to mention their music videos which are works of art.
They have incredible energy, it’s infectious, the lead singer has a Freddie Mercury vibe about him which you might appreciate, he looks and sounds awesome.
