more history but not from a very young Iron Maiden ok thanks, the natives were very war like cutting off other tribes scalps with blunt knives and recruiting blacks and whites to help fight other tribes who they had long vendettas with. White man gave them jobs and like a magnet they took up the better white culture, like how the blacks flocked to the whites in Sth Africa for jobs back in the day.
Mike, I am not,(of native descent) however I am not stupid and I know what happened in north america after us white europeans came over/invaded.(perhaps even some of my descendants) I have talked to and have friends who are native. I've seen the poverty that many live through in my city. I know about the conditions that the people on the reserves go through and the abuse of their children by our government. Any human who lives in my country that even cares a little about other humans and is semi-educated should feel guilty about this. It is not a secret. I know I do. I wish more people would stop thinking about themselves and learn a bit more about the hardships others have faced. Feel some empathy. Please check out a song by Queen from the 1976 album A Day at the Races, it's called "White Man" WOW! the lyrics and musicianship are top notch. Incredible. Cheers from canada.
As a non native American, this song hits the nail right on the head- this is why I like metal and punk rock, these bands lift the veil of media hypocrisy and main stream lies.
I actually had a Literature teacher in high school that played Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Iron Maiden in class, and had a few questions on a test related to the song. She was an older lady but really cool.
If it was nobody would be proud of their history. Because that's the same way every nation was formed. Destroying somebody else and taking what they have. It's just most never even get remembered.
Bruce Dickinson is their lead singer. He has also been a commercial airline pilot for years. He flies the band's tour plane. (Boeing 767 with a giant mummy painted on the side) He's been fighting cancer lately, but he is a machine.
I'm from Scotland, UK, where even we were suppressed and exploited by the English. This song has such a deep rooted lesson for all. On top of that, it is one quality song from Iron Maiden who dont miss a thing.
@@hardtohandleweddingbandent8653 The highland clearances were done by rival Scottish clans, admittedly enabled by the English. It's not fair to act as it was purely English though.
If I am not wrong then The Clansman is about the Scottish War of Independence. The screams of *Freedom* will make William McAulish Proud! Correct me if I am wrong. 🙏
I LOVE IT WHEN PEOPLE SIT DOWN AND ACTUALLY LISTEN TO THE MUSIC AND THE WORDS WITHOUT JUDGEMENT. THESE OLD SCHOOL METAL BANDS RECEIVED A BAD RAP FOR NO REASON. I HAD TO HIDE TO LISTEN TO METAL. THEY WERE ALL THE DEVIL IN MY FAMILIES MINDS. MY 15 Y/O DAUGHTER LOVES THIS STUFF.
Number of the Beast album, released 22 March 1982 making it 37 years old and seeing someone who wouldn't normally listen to it be enthralled is very nice.
I read an article in Hit Parader magazine about a history teacher taken his son to see iron maiden. He was very reluctant to do so, but he was blown away by the history being taught in the songs.
Tasha's is too cute, her new nickname should be Champagne because she's fun, bubbly, refreshing and Classy! Big T you were lucky enough to land her, much respect to you both! Keep up the good work Peace!!☮
The beautiful Tasha has nailed it: It is difficult to enjoy Maiden as simple leisure when their message is so powerfully profound and relevant. When I was younger and really into Maiden, I just listened to the music. When I started listening (really listening) to the lyrics, I had to step away. Now I am revisiting them, and it is amazing to make the journey with you.
Yes, it does talk about us coming to conquer, to gain "acceptance", to stop tribal wars, the slaughtering of tribal children, to have more farmland than Europe, to fulfill Genesis 9:27, & to get revenge from the *"Indian Massacre of 1622"* ?! en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powhatan_attack_of_1622 www.virtualjamestown.org/phatmass.html *"Powhatan attack of 1622"* popularly known as the Jamestown massacre took place in the English Colony of Virginia, in what is now the United States, on Friday, 22 March 1622. John Smith, though he had not been in Virginia since 1609 and was not an eyewitness, related in his History of Virginia that braves of the Powhatan *"came unarmed into our houses* with deer, turkeys, fish, fruits, and other provisions to sell us". *The Powhatan grabbed any tools* *or weapons* available and *"KILLED"* all the English settlers they found, including men, *"WOMEN, & CHILDREN".* Chief Opechancanough led the Powhatan Confederacy in a coordinated series of surprise attacks; *"THEY KILLED 347 UNARMED CHRISTIAN* *MEN, WOMEN & CHILDREN"* !
Glad to see the music that I grew up with, being analyzed by young generations. Great Rock music is not about race, is about being alive. This is why Iron Maiden lyrics and music are more than just a bunch of guys with long hair playing Rock. Their music will live way after all of us are gone. I have a History Major, I am 19 % Native American and a Combat Veteran.
the song does not promote the exploitation of indians. on the contrary, it points out how our ancestors took this country by force in a heinous manner. this was the indian's country, not england, france or spain's.
Theres the rub though the USA or more appropriately north America wasnt a country it was a land with many warring nomadic tribes were there heinous crimes done yes absolutely but the country didnt exist its a story of conquest brutal and simple conquest
@@christophercombs7561 true, america was not an autonomous nation. but we did systemically take the land and all the resources from every tribe in america over time. and we did by force when needed. so we basically took over several countries/states, not just one. and then we brought slaves from africa to help with all the work. all these things are directly in opposition of the true ideals of the founding fathers.
@@Hollingsworth2781 all true but take a quick look at that slave trade thing when the tribes of africa sold their slaves to the white man theres the conqueror conquered history i spoke of in kther comments
@@Hollingsworth2781 true but im under no obligation to feel guilty as i am an innocent as i didnt participate to suggest that im responsible in any way is to advocate for collective guilt and moght i add is wholly unjust
Anthrax - Indians and WASP - Trail Of Tears have the same theme but use vastly different genres, Anthrax is thrash metal and WASP is a power ballad with some amazing emotional vocals by Blackie Lawless.
I love seeing people giving Metal a chance. It is not all about the devil or witchcraft. There are some great song that really carry a hard hitting message, and story. I wish more people where as open minded as you are.
Powerslave a concept album? I must have missed the parts where farao’s where flitting around in Spitfires, firing albatrosses out of the sky. Sounds epic though.
Ha, that Song! I was 11 years old when I got a radio tape recorder for birthday in '82, Run to the Hills was on the 1st tape I recorded from that radio. That must have been a hell of a mix tape, even I only remember that on this tape was Ron Goodwin's - Miss Marple's Theme as well ;) Thanks for bringing back memories.
Hi guys! Just found your channel and very happy I did. Iron Maiden is in my opinion is one of the greatest musical groups in the world. Thanks for the great posts, and please stay safe during this time. Cheers from Florida!!

Remember that not only the native americans of the north, but the central and south suffered with the brutallity! I dare to say even more then the north americans
@@arthurguitarra87 numerically, the natives currently in north america outnumber the amount of natives here when BRITISH settlers arrived (note: 90% had died by smallpox brought by the spanish and transmitted through other tribes by that point, so they aren't near precolumbian numbers). Do you think maybe it's just harder to tell they are still there in central and south america because the terms "hispanic" and "latino" have ended the more useful native, mulatto, mestizo, castizo, european, etc?
@@arthurguitarra87 Not realy. The Central and South Americans suffered but more of them survived in the mix! While puritans were all about keeping the race pure and the native americans, who are the people of the devil, dead.

please don't take as personal, but as a speaker of english as second language i'm happy when native english speakers don't understand the lyrics of songs in english. that makes me feel not so dumb because i also need the written lyrics to understand them. (i'm brazilian)
Iron Maiden have always told stories to their songs. Bruce the lead singer is a qualified commercial pilot and takes the band and equipment on tour in Ed Force One. a Boeing 747 Jumbo jet. In the 80s the bible belt in the USA went mad over number of the beast and tried to ban it, burnt records. They said it was satanic, it was not, it was a story, just like their other songs.
If u listen to it high, you really understand the depth to the melody in the vocals and lyrics. The pitches, rhythm, beat, strums ect. Every part of the music means something and is designed to make you feel the way the artist wants you to. And I'm high rn
You probably know this by now but that 'demon' in the picture with the devil is none other than Eddie, and he's the band's monstrous manifestation of Maiden's music.
Back then parents all around the world tried to stop young people from listening to iron maiden! Because most of there songs are straight to the point about some fairly harsh subjects! Hallow be thy name is about someone on death row, as you know. This is what helped make them famous! Great band great memories 😂 #NZ
Ah bless Iron Maiden - social commentary with guitars [2 Minutes to Midnight is even more searing in its social commentary]. As someone else noted below, the actual music video to Run to the Hills places the song in a stronger contextual position per interpretation. Recommendation for a listen (and a bit of a giggle): Baby Metal - Gimme Chocolate ...
That photo on the album is Eddie. And he is Iron Maiden's mascot. It basically is showing that although Satan controls man, that man controls him too, that we are more of a god than he is & Jesus even said that ! - John 10:34
I actually heard a guy say the other day that this is one of Maiden's worst albums .. what a moron! The first 2 albums with Dickinson (# Of The Beast & Piece Of Mind) are their 2 BEST albums in my opinion (not that they don't have many great albums .. most of them are). people have different tastes I get that .. but I, for the life of me, cannot imagine how one draws THAT conclusion .. anybody care to give their thoughts on this? .. by the way .. great reaction!
Just because the song is about something, that doesn't always mean it's a celebration of the thing. A lot of rock and metal uses sarcasm and antagonistic perspective to bring attention to the subject.
As a native American. I would like to see at least an inkling of some greatfulness for the many lives that Americans today live. please weve been almost erdicated. Show some kind of homage. To the lives YOU LIVE TODAY AS AMERICANS!!! Thats all I ask Please!!!!
Read the biography of William (Buffalo Bill) Cody and Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee. My opinion of who was the good guy and who was the bad boy turned 180 degrees after suggesting those. This song sums it all up nicely.
I think you missed a trick telling her a few facts about Maiden at the end. This is a reaction video after all. She may have been amazed to learn they are from London, with the subject matter of the song for example!
I am Native American. Don't feel guilty. Consider it a history lesson.
more history but not from a very young Iron Maiden ok thanks, the natives were very war like cutting off other tribes scalps with blunt knives and recruiting blacks and whites to help fight other tribes who they had long vendettas with. White man gave them jobs and like a magnet they took up the better white culture, like how the blacks flocked to the whites in Sth Africa for jobs back in the day.
Maiden's always careful to not give too much of a spin on things, good or bad. Like you say, a history lesson.
@@andyb1653 they sing about the truth when not leaning left sometimes with the subject of reincarnation ie the infinite dreams song....
This song tells the story from both perspectives which is a good thing. There is usually 2 sides to a story
What the hell does reincarnation have to do with left or right?
As a native American, I am glad to see that you got it right off the first line, most people don't!
Mike, I am not,(of native descent) however I am not stupid and I know what happened in north america after us white europeans came over/invaded.(perhaps even some of my descendants) I have talked to and have friends who are native.

Robert Lee Blame MEN/MAN
My grandmother was Native American (Choctaw/Cherokee) she was born 1894
she use to tell me stories about her parents not allowed to talk the language. I wished i could speak it myself.
how do people not get it?? its right in the lyrics
30 something years later this tune still gives me goosebumps......
I was just thinking the same thing.
Same
Same here. Good music never die. Never!!
40 yrs !!! next year !!!!!!!!
As a kid getting albums like this the cover was part of the experience.
Yep, this I the first album I bought. I got it because the cover was cool.
As a non native American, this song hits the nail right on the head- this is why I like metal and punk rock, these bands lift the veil of media hypocrisy and main stream lies.
It's that galloping beat that draws you in. It's like parts of it your on that horse. And parts that your running for your life.
I recommend listening to The Four Horsemen by Metallica, it has a rift that also gives you that feeling of riding on a horse.
This is how history should be taught in schools.
Shit... This is how history was learned when I was in school...
I would have paid much more attention if school had an IRON MAIDEN soundtrack...
Maiden songs are History and Literary courses set to metal music.
I actually had a Literature teacher in high school that played Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Iron Maiden in class, and had a few questions on a test related to the song. She was an older lady but really cool.
If it was nobody would be proud of their history. Because that's the same way every nation was formed. Destroying somebody else and taking what they have. It's just most never even get remembered.

Aka Ed Force One
That 'mummy' is Eddie haha
I wish i have a wife like that. Openmind, funny and strong. You are a lucky guy!
Don't feel guilty. It is important to remember what happened before so that it will not happen again.
hey guys. just a heads up,....im an old iron head from the 80's,.....IRON MAIDEN Lyrics were mostly about History and classical Literature,.....True😊
Maiden fan since early 80's and exactly history literure poems ..oh and UP THE IRONS!!!
"wasted years" is an awesome maiden song that had radio playability in times others songs had been kept off air.
I'm from Scotland, UK, where even we were suppressed and exploited by the English. This song has such a deep rooted lesson for all. On top of that, it is one quality song from Iron Maiden who dont miss a thing.
The English got Maiden, the Scots got Runrig. Ouch. Sorry, only joking. Surprised Maiden never wrote about the Highland clearances.
@@hardtohandleweddingbandent8653 The highland clearances were done by rival Scottish clans, admittedly enabled by the English. It's not fair to act as it was purely English though.
@@TRey-ly4vx Agreed, though it shouldn't be forgotten that the economic and political impetus was mainly English in origin.

THANK YOU YOU GUYS ROCK.. ID LIKE TO SEE SOME DEF LEOPARD IF POSSIBLE?THERE MY 2ND ALL TIME FAVORITE BAND. METALLICA IS NUMBER 1.
When I first heard this song all those years ago I too thought of native Americans. These are very powerful lyrics.
Another metal song covering similar subject matter equally well is Anthrax "Indians"
Manowar: Spirit Horse of the Cherokee
Nightwish - Creek Mary's Blood
Saxon - Great White Buffalo
Robert Norris correct
Europe - Cherokee
You and your wife seem like awesome people, glad i found this channel. Very entertaining.

Storytellers making history fun. Maiden in a nutshell :D \m/
I read an article in Hit Parader magazine about a history teacher taken his son to see iron maiden. He was very reluctant to do so, but he was blown away by the history being taught in the songs.

I wanna smoke weed and listen to Iron Maiden with this woman all night.
Wow! You are a very lucky and blessed man to have such a wonderful wife...
her face says it all when the lyrics click , its ok to be mad at the message and love the messenger -> this one time :) Maiden for All!!
I want to double like your post. Well put!
Dat freeze when you realise the lyrics are brutal... 😱
Then you listen on - and you're left shocked & rocked!
Loved both reaction vids ❤
This is one of my favorite Iron Maiden tracks, ever. Bruce Dickenson's vocals rock and Steve Harris is a Bass GOD! (It's the triplets!!!)
Dave Murray's guitar makes the band.
Their Mascot on the album is
Named EDDIE.
UP THE IRONS.
True that brother UP THE IRONS
Maybe this is superficial, but she's just about the cutest thing I've ever seen
Lovely energy!

fantastic song, awesome album
As a white man this song always touched my heart about the wrong done to the native TRIBES To the land they now call America.
Every Maiden song is a history lesson!
It's always better to listen first. THEN comment.
Ironically this is the song that was their big break in America.

"Aces High" about the London Blitz during WW2
Yes, and the song The Longest Day is about the D-Day in Normandie in 1944...🤔
I like run to the hills because they tell both sides of the story. First from an Indian perspective, then from the homesteaders.
That why we used the buy the albums for the cool cover pictures
She clearly realizes the impact of the lyrics and appreciates the complexity of the music.
God she is adorable. I would love to listen to music with her!
A lot of Iron Maiden songs are very powerful lyrically, discussing history, as well as powerful musically.
My favourite YT couple, great reactors too.
This may be their most famous song but I love it.
Whats wrong with that?????
Some people seem to cut down a bands biggest hits. Not me.
“The universe is hostile so impersonal . Devour to survive . So it is . so it’s always been”
Tool - Vicarious
To help you with describing the beat, it is "galloping" as if on horseback.
