      Perfectly said. I just saw them in San Diego last weekend and Bruce told us how we are blood brothers and sisters despite coming from all different countries and areas, then they led into "Blood Brothers". One of the coolest moments of my life ever. Iron Maiden forever! 🤟

      @David Terhune - true... so true. My god... so true :)
      Just wait until she will hear about Bruce and his flying experience, with Ed Force One - Boening 747, and his experience being a captain of Boeing planes.
      I cannot remember when he got his license, but I think he gained a proper commercial pilot's license after learning to fly in the 1990s (and he was always interested in flying). He also had quite a lot of commercial hours, under his belt - enough to be a pilot of 747 with a proper crew, and passengers. All in all... a person living his life, going all the way in every way. And this is hopefully how we all can approach the life as is - as long as we can :)

    Absolutely is Bruce, this is over 15 years later so his hairs shorter, all the same members with the exception of Janiick Gers the third guitarist they added, still kicking ass, still a force to be reckoned with, showing the young bands today how it should be done!. Great job on the vid reaction Aileen, love seeing a new Maiden fan being born, i suggest Dance of Death or Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner, the bass in the latter is amazing, especially when the song slows, Up the Irons!!

  • @metalmark1214
    @metalmark1214 2 года назад +85

    Highlight of songs I'd recommend are:
    From Iron Maiden------
    Phantom of the Opera - A must for live version
    Strange World (this one will be totally different Iron Maiden)
    From Killers ------
    Murders in the Rue Morgue (Very loosely influenced by Edgar Allen Poe's short story, a story of a fugitive being sought for murder)
    Genghis Khan (an instrumental - perfect for air drumming)
    Innocent Exile (continues the theme of Murders in the Rue Morgue of an unjustly accused fugitive)
    Killers (A journey into the twisted mind of a deranged killer)
    Prodigal Son(about a repentant man reminiscent of the prodigal son parable found in Luke 15 of the bible)
    Purgatory(lyrics of song read like a poem)
    Drifter (focuses on the possibility of new beginnings)
    From The Number of the Beast------
    Invaders (It graphically depicts the violence and horror of a defense against a Viking invasion)
    The Prisoner (based on the UK television series that ran briefly in the late 1960’s)
    22 Acacia Avenue (The continuation of Charlotte the Harlot)
    The Number of the Beast (Inspired by a dream Bassist Steve Harris had after watching the movie the Omen2)

    Hallowed be Thy Name (about a man who is about to be put to death and what he goes through) ***You have done
    From Piece of Mind------
    Where Eagles Dare (based on an Alistair Maclean novel, (1967), and film (1968) about a WWII rescue of an American general from a Nazi stronghold in the Bavarian Alps
    Revelations (Starts with the Hymnal from Oh God of Earth and Alter, the next two verses on the Hindu philosophy, the third verse in Yoga a snake called Kundalini that lives at the base of your spinal cord, during meditation a spiritual entity is created symbolizing the transcendental union with God)
    Flight of Icarus (loosely based on the ancient Greek myth of Icarus)
    The Trooper (based on the Charge of the Light Brigade at the Battle of Balaclava 1854,which took place during the Crimean War)
    To Tame a Land (the song relays the story of Paul Atreides, Paul Muad'Dib, from the book Dune by Frank Herbert)
    From Powerslave------
    Aces High (about aircraft dog fighting between the British and German fighter pilots of WWII)
    2 Minutes to Midnight - About the Doomsday clock for the End of the World

    From Somewhere in Time-------

    From 7th Son of a 7th Son (a concept album)------
    Infinite Dreams (Detailing someone who is tormented by paranormal dreams and nightmares)

    The Clairvoyant (relates the reflections of the 7th Son of the 7th Son on his life and his powers)
    From Fear of the Dark------
    Wasting Love (About the emptiness of relationships without love. Another Maiden ballad)
    Fear of the Dark (About being afraid of the dark and the things in the dark that might be there - absolute a live performance for this one)
    From Brave New World------
    The Wicker Man (about the apathy of our modern society and our egotistic disinterest of what is happening until something happens to us)
    Ghost of the Navigator (The lyrics are a metaphor of life, with the ship sailing west towards the setting sun representing death)
    Brave New World (Loosely based on the 1932 novel by Aldous Huxley)

    Iron Maiden is one of the few bands that you absolute MUST see live (and in person, not just a live recording). Every fan, of the sometimes 100,000+ in the crowd knows every word to every song and joins in. They have such a stage presence, you feel like you're a part of the show. It's hard to describe the energy that permeates everyone and every thing in the venue. It's incredible.

    The Rock in Rio performance of Revaltions. It highlights Bruce, and it is a love song of sorts. It is a feature if most of their tours. The 85 Rock in Rio concert features Bruce injuring himself in an interesting way, and he doesn't miss a beat.

      My first fave song ever 🤘😎🤘 Piece of Mind was my first record ever. I got to buy it as a birthday present for myself when I turned 9 years old (1984, yep I'm still alive and kicking). It came out in May and my birthday is in June. Revelation became my favorite song right away and it was the first Maiden song that I learned on drums so it's close to my heart and will always be one of my fave. Then I love the drums on Where Eagles Dare on the same record especially the intro. Actually, the whole album is too good not to listen through the entire album 🤘😎🤘 Cheers from Sweden 🇸🇪

      @@jonaslindberg5482 Great memories! Live After Death was my first album, and I got it shortly after it came out. Within a month I had bought both Powerslave and Piece of Mind. The Trooper was my first Maiden song that I heard. Half way through the song, I thought that my life will never be the same again. This music will always be a part of my life. Revaltions was my favorite song for about 25 years. Rime has been my favorite for the past 10. (The Trooper for the rest.) Maiden has contributed to a life well lived. Up The Irons!

    • @Uuusssaaas
      @Uuusssaaas 2 года назад

      @@opticFPV I agree that Bruce's voice is better on other live versions of Revalations. In the early versions Maiden played with a greater hunger that shows through, and the blood trickle on his face is a cool visual for a first time viewer. I think the version of Revalations to play for a first time viewer comes down to a gut feeling about the viewer's personality and preferences. For other reactors, I would pick the cleaner vocals. I thought she would appreciate the more emotional power packed version. Either way, the theater of the mind for her will show through. You really can't go wrong with either one.

    Definitely do Rime of the Ancient Mariner from their Flight 666 DVD, that performance specifically is what I send to people to explain why Maiden is one of the greatest bands of all time. I tend to disagree with the people that always recommend the Rock in Rio versions of their performances, I think Flight 666 has overall better performances, and better audio and video quality. You can hear the crowd better on Flight 666 as well.

    Even in metal you don't always get to see the differences in the fans compared to a lot (most?) of other music, but the last phrase in this really showcases something that I don't think you'd see anywhere else.
    The guitar returns to that slow-ish, clean tone melody, and the whole crowd is vocalizing it along with the guitar. Then Bruce goes into the last two lines *and the crowd doesn't join him*. They keep doing the melody to go underneath him. So gorgeous

  • @aimfuldrifter

    Bruce is their second singer, he's joined them on their third album. This tour is for their 12th album called Brave New World, when Dickinson came back after doing his solo work, so his vocal has changed a little but it was still amazing. When Adrian Smith came back after doing his solo work too (he has a great vocal as well) they didn't kick Janick Gets out but decided to have three guitar players. That's the story in a nutshell. Rock in Rio is one of their best performances of the whole career.

    Bruce had left the Band in the 90s and had become a commercial airline pilot. For that, he had to cut his hair. This show is from their reunion tour. So the hair is still short. That is why you did not recognize him. In later years, he flew the band and crew in their tour plane around the world. Song recommendations: There are just too many. Some of my personal favorites: "The Clansman" from the same show in 2001 is ridiculously awesome. Or "Dance of Death", which came out a few albums later. That's incredible, too.

For the story, Bruce Dickinson is the lead vocalist of Iron Maiden but he's also a fully qualified airline captain. And I remember flying with him as a passenger, not knowing he was the captain of the flight until the unboarding, when I recognized him when leaving the plane. The moment was so short, but it is an unforgettable moment to meet such a legend as an ordinary captain.

    Great reaction Aileen. Iron Maiden are legendary and Heavy Metal royalty. I've been listening to them since "80, yes I'm old LOL 😆😆 The original singer of Iron Maiden was Paul Di'Anno, he was on their first two Maiden albums, Iron Maiden in 1980, and Killers in 1981. He was a very good singer and he deserves the recognition of being a part of this legendary band. Paul had a more "punk rock" vocal style, and Maiden wanted to change directions, so the ended up hiring Bruce in '82 and released one of my all-time favorite albums The Number of the Beast, and the rest is Maiden history. You should check out Paul on vocals though, I would suggest possibly reacting to Killers, (no video only audio) or Phantom of the Opera (music video) Bruce also sings Phantom of the Opera. It's hard to believe that Bruce is now 63 years old, Steve Harris (bass) is 66, Adrian Smith (guitar) is 65, Dave Murray (guitar) is 65, Jannick Gers (guitar) is 65 and Nicko McBrain (drums) just turned 70. I'm gonna suggest reacting to The Clansman, live in Rio, they have the 2001 version and the more recent 2019 version, both are great but the 2019 version will show you just how incredible they still are and that song will give you major chills and goosebumps, oh and no it has nothing to do with those certain individuals LOL, it has to do with Scotland fighting for their freedom. Keep up the great reactions, continue to enjoy your Maiden journey, and as always, stay Metal young lady. 😊😊🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🎶🎶🎶🎶 Oh one last thing, Maidens' original drummer was Clive Burr who did the first three albums, Iron Maiden, Killers, and The Number of the Beast, he was replaced by Nicko in 1983, and has since passed away in 2013. R.I.P. Clive..

    The story behind the concert film "Flight 666" was Iron Maiden wanting to tour all the countries that they never got to play back in the day because their managers, etc said it was too expensive to go to these places. Bruce Dickenson has a commercial pilot's license now, due to his love of planes over a long period of time and interest in learning to fly them. So they decided they can fly their own plane(s), one with equipment, one with band and crew and hit all the places they were never able to visit. It's a fun film full of great Maiden performances from all over the world.

    When it comes to "supplements" for live performance, Steve runs the band like a business. So Maiden, for the most part, are one of those clean bands that don't indulge in drug$ for live performance. Atleast from what I have heard/read. 80s/90s Metallica, on the other hand.

  • @jimrupe9991
    @jimrupe9991 2 года назад

    Iron Maiden....one of the greatest bands of the 80s. A few songs worth a listen , "The number of the beast" "The Trooper" "Run to the hills" and many more. Fun fact....Bruce Dickinson , the lead singer is also a licensed pilot who flies the bands plane to gigs all over the world (Boeing 747) which is a huge plane.

  • @Caelestan

    The energy of Bruce is legendary. As the whole Iron Maiden. I had the luck, to watch Bruce during his solo-time as support for the band Helloween in Hamburg, Germany. 😉 It was great. And i also would recommend Helloween with Keeper of the seven keys from their Pumpkins United-Tour. Because there you will have the one and only Michael Kiske singing. Outstanding voice and also a huge presence on stage, but in a total different way. 😍

    One of my favorites live is 'Dance of Death' in particular the 'En Vivo' concert in Santiago Chile ( ruclips.net/video/GoBok1xd93M/видео.html ). This is from 2011 which is another 10 years after the one you reacted to. It is a very dramatic song and Bruce does a lot of storytelling via his singing.

      Why does everyone suggest the En Vivo version over the Death on the Road version? I'm not nitpicking, I just see this recommendation a lot and am curious why this one over that one. The Death on the Road version is much more theatrical.

    Iron Maiden has been around (starting with the release of their first album) for 42 years. When you start diving into Maiden you are going to see major time jumps. Bruce will be young with long hair in one video, short hair in next, then grey hair in another. There is also one major vocal point in Bruce's career: Pre-Throat Cancer and Post-Throat Cancer around 2014-2015. But the Iron Maiden energy remains the same.

    There are no bands I like watching live videos of more than Iron Maiden, a few I like as much but none more. However I really recommend going and listening to the studio version as well just to hear everything Bruce does, that he let's the crowd do live, plus the clarity in which you get to enjoy him & the rest of the band.

    Bruce was back from his Maiden Hiatus I believe and had the short hair. You can thank STEVE HARRIS, founder of Iron Maiden for those absolutely SICK BASS RIFFS!! Unless you play guitar or base or see their music live, you have absolutely no idea how hard he is working that bass! He rips on that thing more than most guitarists!!! It's amazing!!

    The first song that drew me into Iron Maiden as a kid in the early 80's was "Flight of Icarus". Bruce's vocals on that track got me hooked. There is a live video from Live After Death 1985 that would be great to react to.

  • @jingtroc23

    Loved loved loved your enthusiasm! :). In your own time you could listen to the studio version as he was younger, so you can hear both how time has effected his voice plus from studio to live :). I suggested a Maiden song list on your last maiden reaction(which you noticed! thank you, trust me it's a great list), but here is a live solo song by Bruce Dickinson, Tears Of The Dragon (the version you want is "Bruce and Tribuzy Tears of the Dragon live, uploaded by DragontearsCZ). I promise you if you don't like it i will never suggest another song :).. but i know you will like it so :)

  • @insufferablethrashelitist9305

    Probably my favorite maiden song.
    In their older concerts they all just sort of stood around the stage, so they definitely learned to become 'performers' over time.
    Cute shirt, btw.
