I can't even describe how much I admire Bruce. And even more so because he is not cocky at all, due to his success, just down to earth nice guy :) UP THE IRONS!!
I'd argue that it's because metal music and even rock music focuses more on instruments rather than on lyrics, because of that you can generate fans from all over the world who have no idea how to speak or understand your language but still have a great time because you don't necessarily need to focus on the lyrics like in pop music you can rock out to the guitars, drums, base etc. That's why metal is so world wide compared to other genres.
You can give all the air play you want to big hair bands, but at the end of the day Iron Maiden always made music about things with substance.... in other words they don't SUCK..... big hair bands forgotten, Maiden still around because of it!!!!
Insane charisma and great personality. I honestly don't even like his style of singing quite that much, just not my taste, but he has immense charisma. Wonderful, and multi-faceted talents. He's lived an incredible life.
All the bandmembers in Iron Maiden are such good people. That is the key to their longevity. They always inspire. Watching them live always creates JOY !!❤️💜
Except that Chuck Norris has the twisted politics of a delusional far-right winger. Bruce is an intelligent, thoughtful, talented, and kind-hearted man. So no, Bruce is not the metal version of Chuck. Bruce Dickinson is in a class all by himself; he is inimitable and incomparable.
What a beautiful and inspirational human being. I'm so grateful for all the excitement, joy and catharsis I've had privilege to experience at Iron Maiden concerts (growing up in my part of the world I thought I never would). Hopefully many more to come. Love Bruce
Yeah, and the great thing is that he probably feels similar devotion to you, as a fan.... Well, that is, as long as you are WAY younger than 50 or 60. As long as you are 13 to 25, you can probably count on it! If you are older than 40 or 50, then obviously he doesn't have devotion to you(or me) anymore. This is at least the 2nd interview where he has made that crystal clear......
@@patrickmcleod111 You really should take a joke. He is 60 himself, so he feels he can make fun of his own generation. Taking something like that personally means you need to grow thicker skin.
Hats off to Bruce!! he does not.act his age !!

What a cool guy. Commercial airplane pilot, lead singer of one of the best metal bands in history, author, incredible soccer player.... Doesn't get much better. 🤘
One day i saw a maiden poster and i thought it was cool when i was 14 and curiously i searched up onRUclips and the first song i heard from them was Hallowed be thy name, i fell i love immediately. i’m 26 years old now and i’ve been loving every song ever since. i’ve seen them on tour twice and to me they are the best band in the world ever.
Started listening to Maiden when I was 12 . Powerslave Album . I’m 45 now . I’ve got a 13 year old son . Favourite band Iron Maiden . Great Band Great Guys . Thanks for 33 years of awesome music Bruce Steve Andy Adrian Nicko Janick and all the others that have contributed to this one of a kind brilliant musical Artistry . Up the Irons 🇬🇧🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 🇬🇧🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 🇬🇧🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🇦🇺
Iron Maiden has been my favorite band of all time for over thirty years and they will always be my favorite band. Bruce Dickinson is one of the greatest frontmen and singers ever in the music industry. I hope that I have half his energy when I reach 60 years old.
Phillip Fry no Philip - his hair has always been thick. His hair is quite real, the evidence has been in front of our eyes without being hidden once. Some people are just lucky - check your jealousy!
"the audience is not 60 year olds" My 2 year old sons favourite song/video at the moment is Number of the Beast. Gone from wiggles big red car, to Iron Maiden....
Parenting done RIGHT! I’m a grandpa. I raised my Daughter on Slayer and Megadeth. She was visiting with her son. Him and his friend (they are 3) Were revved up as kids should be. I put on some ABORTED and the kids went silent and stared headbanging. That’s a win 😁
@@khav11 No need for that. And speaking for myself I find a little personal comment that's related to the subject at hand, interesting. If you don't... just keep your mouth shut and move on, simple.
I'm Aussie and proud to be Aussie and we love Maiden :):)!!!!! Paul d'Anno was a great vocalist, but Bruce Dickinson is one of the most respectful and respected frontmen, human beings and businessmen in the world :)
@i'm only here for the beer metal has so many great vocalists Bruce is definitely up there, great to watch live but my favourite would have to be Ronnie James Dio
@i'm only here for the beer I was just listening to some Queens Reich with Jeof Tate, another great vocalists that I would put up there with the greatest, judus priest, and I think Ann Wilson from heart would be the best female vocalist In my opinion anyway, that's coming from a Drummer from the Gold coast Australia and I'm a proud Aussie to. 🤘
I love that’s he is the vocalist of the greatest metal band of all time but he’s humble like he rescued a local cat from a tree and the local news paper is interviewing him ❤️
I just LOVE Bruce Dickinson!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He's extremely intelligent, fit, handsome... funny... reminds me a bit of my late husband. It would be amazing to have the opportunity to meet him and talk about planes/flying. My Dad was a pilot, and I've had a life-long love of aviation. I've listened to Iron Maiden off/on since I was a teenager, and they're one of THE BEST metal bands ever. Rock on Bruce - I'm glad you survived cancer. You have one of the best voices I've ever heard.
Pilot, musician, fencing (swordsman), brewery specialist, football (soccer) player, and we should add a comedian to Bruce Dickinson's resume. :) It's great to see all those guys are still rocking.
I'm 50 and I still love them all. The best everything!!! Base, guitarist, drummer and of course Bruce ❤❤❤ I wish they would come to Canada. Your on my bucket list!
Pretty good little segment, was glad they showed him the respect he deserves. I was at that gig at The Palais in Melbourne in 1982. Had to be dropped off and picked up by mum 😂
@@markuse3472 how yeah! go and have a listen to "Ace of Spades" or "No Sleep til Hammersmith"or "Overkill" albums and then you'll agree. At that time Metallica weren't even around or playing ( badlly) other people's songs in a garage.
I met this man in Montreal at my fencing class he showed up and was fencing with our instructor and drinks till 3am night before concert at the forum back in 90’s. Peace
I first heard of Maiden when I was 9 years old and my uncle John put a Number of The Beast poster on his wall. Uncle John also took me to one of their shows for my 14th birthday.
I was 14 years old one day when I turned on the radio and started fumbling around with the radio dial and I happened upon a station in Toronto Canada when I caught the tail end of the Intro to what I didn't know what Number of the Beast. After the Intro, there was a brief silence and out of nowhere, the most amazing guitar riff started and at that point, I was mesmerized....it's like my soul just froze listening to Dave Murray's starting riff. I listened to the whole song and after that, they never mentioned the name of the song and for the next three weeks, I kept on going back trying to catch the name of the song. They DJ finally stated that the next song was Number of the Beast and when the song started....I knew I had it. I am 49 years old now and I've been to five Maiden concerts and I just recently happened upon all of Bruce's solo albums in one visit. Spent a hundred bucks on all his solo albums and I have all of Maidens albums from the days of their first release. Maiden fan in life.....Maiden fan in death.
@@Terk131 I like both albums from the D'ianno era, and I hate the fact that I was too young to see Maiden in those days, but I think Dickinson is a much better vocalist. Not to mention poor Blayze. Everyone hated that era, but I didn't mind it. Blayze kept Maiden going while Bruce was gone.
Cut my teeth on a lot of these Albums growing up as a young man. Real live and Real Dead one has to be an all time fave shits AWESOME sounding!! Rebuilt my Chevelle listening to them during one summer.
20-25 years ago I had a CD on. My mother came into the room and I was expecting her to complain about the song. The conversation went something like this: Mother: i like this song, who sings it? Me: you like this song? Mother: yes Me: Really? Mother: yes, who sings it? Me; Iron Maiden. Mother: I'm being serious. Me; So am I. I can't remember which song it was now; it was either Running Free or Remember Tomorrow.
The *Air Raid Siren* I love listening to this guy talk, Bruce Bruce is super intelligent and so prolific. Anyone ever see the movie he wrote called *Chemical Wedding* (Crowley in the US)? Great movie. Bruce even makes an appearance in it.
Maiden is the BEST METAL BAND EVER!!! Saw them at the Coliseum in Portland, Oregon USA in 1984. My favorite concert ever. You're the best Bruce thanks for the metal mastery.
Amazing band , got speeding tickets listening to Iron Maiden and I was silent until I heard the legendary band I was 14 Rock on!!! Forever will sing to my death
Been a huge Maiden fan since 1981. My first concert was Maiden during the World Slavery tour. I took my then 14 year old son to his first concert the Book of Souls in 2017 and we are going again in two weeks to see them and taking my 12 year old daughter to her first concert for the Legacy of The Beast. Maiden is simply amazing. All of them seem to have such a wonderful attitude about life and they never seem to slow down. I can't fathom how Nicko can do what he does and he is 67 and Bruce is almost 61 heck all of them are in their 60s and have as much energy as they do shows what a healthy life can reward you with. \m/ UP THE IRONS \m/
This is the hapiest man in the world !!! He is the band leader of the best metal band and at the same time he is the pilot of their airplane !!! The best jobs at the same time ! Bruce is a legend ! Long life and up the irons !!!
Even when technology dominates,WORD of Mouth will never die!!! I remember seeing the video for Run To The Hills for the first time and my friends and I were awe struck!
I hope I have a chance to take my kids to see the Maiden!!! My wife and I saw them and as old as he was and having beaten cancer he had more energy than me, and I’m a Marine, and 20 years younger!!! God-metals bless this man, and the band!!!
I am still a huge fan and l am 47 years old....lol What a great man he is, it's absolutely amazing how talented he is... Up the Irons!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What an awesome question: "How did they do it without radio play?" By being totally fuckin awesome, unique, and inventive. I first found out about them in High School in 1984 when I had to do a book report on Coleridge's Rime of the Ancient Mariner. I was bitching to all my friends it made no sense and I got told about the Maiden song (which got me an A). UP THE IRONS! Can't wait for the next album!
He was employed as an airline pilot while with iron maiden. He said he would go on unpaid leave when on tour and worked when he wasn't rocking out! Truly an incredible man!
I grew up also listening to his music and people of my age now (adults back then) used to say “this music is crazy” !!!!!! Yea, this music is crazy beautiful 🤟
Maiden, Motorhead, ACDC, Priest, Megadeth, Bad Religion, Social Distortion etc they have always just played what they want without conforming to anyone or anything. It genuine and honest and this is why they are timeless.
I seen Iron Maiden at Sydney Soundwave in 2011, they was the last band who were playing for the night. It was an impressive show, with many energy. Greetings from KUNAMA !
Bruce does not make Maiden fans regret Paul D'Anno. Anyway, both singers made Iron Maiden what It still is today,......the greatest UK metal band out there !!!!!
Maiden did it the old fashioned way : they toured like crazy instead of sitting on their asses....this is one of the many reasons that Maiden is respected & loved ..
One of the most amazing and interesting men alive, Bruce is a true living legend.
I can't even describe how much I admire Bruce. And even more so because he is not cocky at all, due to his success, just down to earth nice guy :) UP THE IRONS!!
How was Iron Maiden successful without radio airplay? Because Metal fans are the best. Period.
I'd argue that it's because metal music and even rock music focuses more on instruments rather than on lyrics, because of that you can generate fans from all over the world who have no idea how to speak or understand your language but still have a great time because you don't necessarily need to focus on the lyrics like in pop music you can rock out to the guitars, drums, base etc. That's why metal is so world wide compared to other genres.
We take money with everything in my neighborhood to buy the cd to everyone listen.. We are the best..
You can give all the air play you want to big hair bands, but at the end of the day Iron Maiden always made music about things with substance.... in other words they don't SUCK..... big hair bands forgotten, Maiden still around because of it!!!!
I'd say 99.9% of people got into metal through either seeing album art in a shop or heard someone else playing it on a tape/cd/whatever
Real bands make great music it speaks for itself.
love that he's growing out his hair...
Looks Great imo
Not too common among short haired rock icons, I would love to see Hetfield growing out his...
Look so cool.

I made the same remark to my bro when i saw Maiden live at the O2 in August, obviously even longer now, should dye it though imo
looks better now then when he was younger
Proud Maiden fan for 30 years. Bruce is a real live super hero!! Up the Irons!!
Can't listen to this man without an ear to ear smile across my face. He's a legend.

I've taken my kids to Maiden concerts and I first went when I was 15, and I'm now 50. Maiden crosses age boundaries.
Jayson Dudley same here :)
Iron Maiden had the best sound of any band ever back in the 80s.
Bruce Dickinson is the Metal version of Chuck Norris 🤘🏻
Pretty much the entire band is that
Chuck is a looser Bruce is not
joseph malena so when Bruce Dickinson screams, everyone goes deaf 😂
@@BoogieMan568 A looser? What does Chuck let loose other than roundhouse kicks? Bruce lets loose on stage remember.
Except that Chuck Norris has the twisted politics of a delusional far-right winger. Bruce is an intelligent, thoughtful, talented, and kind-hearted man. So no, Bruce is not the metal version of Chuck. Bruce Dickinson is in a class all by himself; he is inimitable and incomparable.

Same here, I managed to become dad to a boy born 060606, whose favourite song is of course Number of Beast.
His name is Dave! NOT Andy!
Only at an Iron Maiden gig have I ever seen a teen, his dad and his grand dad, all hardcore Maiden fans. This band spans 3 generations.
Iron Maiden has been my favorite band of all time for over thirty years and they will always be my favorite band. Bruce Dickinson is one of the greatest frontmen and singers ever in the music industry. I hope that I have half his energy when I reach 60 years old.
Not "one of" but THE greatest frontman and singer ever!!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Bruce's hair looks way healthier than mine. I'm 20 years old.

Lol, It looks natural for sure. But there is probably a little work done too, especially at that age and after his illness.
I listen to iron maiden every day and never feel bored.
my favourite band in 80s. Due to this im named my son a DICKINSON.
The one,the unique, the voice,the legend , mr.Bruce Dickinson .Thank u mister for educating our ears !
Only time Id watch the project
Can a pilot be long-haired?
Forget it. He's Bruce Dickinson, he can do anything
He owns the plane so yea :)
Ken Havens They leased the 747 from Air Atlanta. Most airlines don’t allow long hair. The airline I work for being one of them. 😞
Do they make women pilots cut their hair?
many airlines won't allow it, some do in a pony tail.
I had no idea Bruce had such a natural sense of humor. Multi-talent artist!
He's British, that's why.

Been a huge Maiden fan since 1981. My first concert was Maiden during the World Slavery tour.

"not singing at the moment, but I will be" You heard it hear, there's going to be more Maiden on tour.
Plus the fact that tix went on sale, months before this interview, for the 2019 tour.
Iron Maiden's been my favorite band since i was 11yrs old. Can't Fucking Wait till August!!! I bought my tix months ago.

I first found out about them in High School in 1984 when I had to do a book report on Coleridge's Rime of the Ancient Mariner. I was bitching to all my friends it made no sense and I got told about the Maiden song (which got me an A). UP THE IRONS! Can't wait for the next album!
Wow. You can tell all of them are big fans of Iron Maiden.
Seven minutes is not enough. I wanna see him on Joe Rogan, in fact, get the whole band on.
I usually do not feel inadequate or feel the I have not done much in life; but then I found out about this guy’s achievements.
What an absolute legend
GREAT VIDEO!! Absolutely love Iron Maiden ❤
When i used to call the rock radio stations back in the day here in Houston they would laugh at me
I’m seeing them in August. I’ve been a fan since 1985 I’ve never seen them I will probably cry for the first three songs!
Toblerone " is just an inconvenient shape" Bruce Dickinson , will remember that one lmao!
My favorite story teller. Gonna see Maiden again this summer in Charlotte.
beyond being an incredible vocalist, the dude has his qualifications to fly a 747 and flew professionally as a commercial pilot for a few years.
He was employed as an airline pilot while with iron maiden. He said he would go on unpaid leave when on tour and worked when he wasn't rocking out! Truly an incredible man!
I grew up also listening to his music and people of my age now (adults back then) used to say “this music is crazy” !!!!!!
Yea, this music is crazy beautiful 🤟
Maiden, Motorhead, ACDC, Priest, Megadeth, Bad Religion, Social Distortion etc they have always just played what they want without conforming to anyone or anything. It genuine and honest and this is why they are timeless.
He is simply one of the best rock ‘n’ roll gods, and he’s into aviation which makes him even cooler!
Dude what an absolute badass
The excitement of a new album in the 80s nearly killed me!!🤣 my first concert Powerslave tour, I was blown away
loving the hair~
Seen them in the 80s when I was 18! Best concert ever!!!!
He's truly funny... British humor.
I seen Iron Maiden at Sydney Soundwave in 2011, they was the last band who were playing for the night. It was an impressive show, with many energy. Greetings from KUNAMA !
Hell yea
Bring back the long hair
Awesome 🤘🏻🤘🏻
What a top bloke. I could listen to his stories all night. 🤘🏻
Bruce does not make Maiden fans regret Paul D'Anno. Anyway, both singers made Iron Maiden what It still is today,......the greatest UK metal band out there !!!!!
Wish that we had that kind of respect in Canada. Hats off to The Project!
Maiden did it the old fashioned way : they toured like crazy instead of sitting on their asses....this is one of the many reasons that Maiden is respected & loved ..
I love this guy. I just love this guy. Such a successful and inspiring man.
these two women were hilarious with their openers!!
One of the true gods of metal but its amazing how talented, humble and personable Bruce is!
