Thanks for watching my BIRTHDAY upload everybody!! Enjoy it, and if you did please Subscribe! I have 3 Nylon Maiden albums available at www.ThomasZwijsen.com with worldwide shipping and of course they are also on iTunes, Spotify etc. Cheers!
Absolutely awesome. I like to think that this is proof that others see Iron Maiden the way that I have. They're not just 'some metal band'. Their music is melodic, intricate and beautiful and tells a story that's worth hearing. Your playing is fantastic and offers an amazing perspective on what otherwise might have just been received as metal. Don't get me wrong; I love metal, but it just so happens that I love classical and Spanish guitar. Thanks for doing what you do, my friend.
Yeah! Thats my song...when used to train for the marathon, this song was in my top 10 list along with the Trooper and Hallow Be Thy Name. HBD bro and Cheers from Tijuana Mexico...keep on rockin forever...hup hup!! PS: Te saluda tu amigo Hector Flecha Hernandez!
2:23 I got emotional when you whent into that beautiful middle piece. What a song, what an album! Such an awesome vibe throughout. This is the kind of album that transcends you in a way, and you capured that so well Thomas. Thank you so much, and happy birthday
I agree 100%! Words can't explain the type of feelings that a man feels when listening to this masterpiece and all the others from these legends! Cheers
As a drummer normally I dont watch, let alone search for solo guitar performances. However, I keep coming back for your outstanding performances for years now. I think I'm a fan. Thanks for the unmatched covers
Here is a perfect example that there is a God . He created beauty that we destroy on a daily basis , but then some hold it tight and fly !! Amazing brother you are gifted.
This is the best arrangement of any song I've heard you do so far. Melody, bass, rhythm, its all there. amazing. I've listened 30+ times at this point. Inspires me to learn. Thank you.
Estou tentando achar palavras pra dizer o que senti, ouvindo sua versão pra este clássico maravilhoso do Iron. Obrigado Thomas por você existir e fazer estas versões inigualáveis dos sons do Iron e de outras bandas do metal.
happy late birthday Thomas. Somewhere in Time was the first CD i ever listened to back in the day. Loneliness, still today, is probably on of my most favourite songs on the planet. There should be a setting 11 on every speaker when that intro comes up. I cannot for the life of me figure out how you manage to play that entire song on one guitar like that. Unbelievably awesome . I cannot even tie my shoes, without dislocating a kneecap (which is why they invented velcro ) and you turned one of ( at least for me ) metals most significant songs into a flamenco like orgy that wants me to cook paella and at the same time have a bottomless cup of sangria. Big Respect, awesome what you have done here !!!!
Maiden made 100s of songs. Not all songs can be rated. This is one of best Maiden songs I like. And thanks to Thomas. I was just waiting to hear of your version.
I feel lucky to have grown up from 1960 until now because some of the best music was created in the past 60 year's, of that's excluding the music of Mozart and his classical peers, and the blue's of the early 1900's
This man's musical talent inspires me. I do autobody and painting mostly restoration work on classic car's and truck's,bikes anything I can make paint stick to and shine like the gates. I crank this in my shop as I extend what I believe to be my art/ music bread by my Father. I thank you sir Thomas for your musical genius. True inspiration 🍻
Génial, jouer aussi bien de l'IRON MAIDEN en accoustique c'est bluffant,je regarde cette vidéo en boucle, j'adore ce morceau en plus. Merci Mr THOMAS ZWIJSEN beaucoup en ces temps difficiles çà fait un bien fou.
Increible versión!! Las estabamos esperando hace mucho y Thomas por fin la hizo, y es grandiosa!! Feliz cumpleaños Thomas!! Seguramente lo recordarás por mucho tiempo como uno de tus cumpleaños más raros jejejeje! Abrazo grande desde Argentina
HATS OFF! I can only bow to one of my fave songs, and of course, to your art Thomas, plus the passion you have for Maiden. My bow to you and your true talent that I am sure it comes from great effort and work. Keep on rocking, up the Nylons!
That was so amazing! I loved this song off of Somewhere in Time. It was always so breathtaking to me. And it was breathtaking and dramatic in this take. Epic beyond words.
Tomas esos lugares donde grabas que son hermosos, qu paisajes mas maravillosos de donde seran? Tienes un don con. La guitarra y sobretodo para tocar los temazos de, Iron Maiden, uf que pase la pesadilla para volver a verlos en concierto y ati tomas gracias por tocar los temas de ellos , te vi en Google tocando con tu guitarra la canción.... Sign of the cross., te salio vacan y ahora en youtube. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

6:40 The Happiness Of The Short Distance To The Fridge
As a 47 yr old iron maiden was a MAJOR part of my upbringing. This made my day!
This kind of pure acoustic cover makes us realize once again that Iron Maiden’s songwriting is truly untouchable!
I'll never get to understand random idiots disliking such great performances on RUclips 😕
Magnificent job as always Thomas 😎
trolls and Jealousy
Perhaps just bots 😁 Don't take them on the account. 😉
totally agree. 21 idiots 'til now.
It’s Jamaicans who think it’s the “dis-i-like” button
Didn't you knew the world is full of retards ?!

Same... it’s amazing and that section was.... dare I say... epic.

I've never seen anyone play like this. Classical guitars are so beautiful sounding.

Superb, Master. There is a gift in the shape of pure and raw talent in your execution. Congratulations!!!

Must be self determined and push myself on!

Excellent is the half of this. Genius is the second half.
