    Thomas has gained almost 10 million views on RUclips with his arrangements of Iron Maiden songs for classical guitar, making this his most anticipated album to date.
    Zwijsen comments; “in our attempt to choose the best track listing for the most fulfilling, surprising and complete Iron Maiden tribute album, we simply couldn't fit all the songs on a single CD, so we decided to make it a double CD this time. Many of the songs were requests from people on RUclips. If this were to be the setlist at an Iron Maiden concert, I’d be very happy!”.

    This is my acoustic/classical solo arrangement of Iron Maiden's masterpiece "Blood Brothers". I dedicate it to all those people everywhere in the world who gave me great reactions on my previous video's, thanks! I hope you all enjoy it :)

    I'm a die hard Maiden fan and this song almost moves me to tears, also because ten years ago I lost my father and every time I listen to it I remember him.
    A true masterpiece, thanks for this version, it really touches the heart.

      I'm sorry for your lost friend.
      This song was the one that I going to dance at my wedding with the only woman that I loved and who is no longer with me anymore and I don't know anything about her. This song takes me to that time. This beautifull version makes me feel nostalgic.
      Greetings from Chile.

    And if you're taking a walk through
    the garden of life
    What do you think you'd expect you
    would see?
    Just like a mirror reflecting the
    moves of your life
    And in the river reflections of me

    Just for a second a glimpse of my
    father I see
    And in a movement he beckons to me
    And in a moment the memories are all
    that remain
    And all the wounds are reopening again

    We're blood brothers
    We're blood brothers
    We're blood brothers
    We're blood brothers

    And as you look all around at the
    world in dismay
    What do you see, do you think we
    have learned
    Not if you're taking a look at the
    war-torn affray
    Out in the streets where the babies
    are burned

    We're blood brothers
    We're blood brothers
    We're blood brothers
    We're blood brothers

    There are times when I feel I'm afraid
    for the world
    There are times I'm ashamed of us all
    When you're floating on all the
    emotion you feel
    And reflecting the good and the bad

    Will we ever know what the answer
    to life really is?
    Can you really tell me what life is?
    Maybe all the things that you know
    that are precious to you
    Could be swept away by fate's
    own hand

    We're blood brothers
    We're blood brothers
    We're blood brothers
    We're blood brothers

    When you think that we've used
    all our chances
    And the chance to make
    everything right
    Keep on making the same
    old mistakes
    Makes untipping the balance so easy
    When we're living our lives on
    the edge
    Say a prayer on the book of the dead

    We're blood brothers
    We're blood brothers
    We're blood brothers
    We're blood brothers

    And if you're taking a walk through
    the garden of life
