Those Hendrix-esque details by Dave Murray makes em one of the best sections ever in a Maiden song
Imagine having an arsenal of songs so strong that you can decide NOT to play Infinite Dreams. This would be the best song on many bands' catalogues.
Seriously!!!! Craziness 🤯
Yes!
I can imagine it because
..Iron Maiden did it.
It's great to hear that Infinite Dreams is one of your favourite songs, it is my favorite song from my favourite Maiden album. Amazing job Nico, thanks man!
Same here Fellow :)
An amazing song that's rarely, almost never, played. Than goodness we have Maiden England where we can enjoy this masterpiece.
MASTERPIECE SONG!!!!! One of the very best of Maiden!
the way dave-adrian-janick have complemented eachother over the years is just.... i dont know how any band will ever again come close to how they sound together.
It's called modesty, humility, Friendship, respect and camaraderie
They should have gotten rid of janick yrs ago, hes so not iron maiden with his style of moving around on stage.
The "slow" Iron Maiden songs are some of my favorites. This one and "Still Life" are so awesome! Now we also have "Hell on Earth" to add to awesome Maiden songs similar to this.
You should give college classes only about Maiden's songs. And yes, this song is absolutely majestic. I think Maiden is the perfect band to teach and learn guitar. Thank you for this videos from the bottom of my heart.
Glad you're finding the vids useful! Thank you!
This is in my top 5 maiden songs and one of the best Dickinson 's moments .Very underrated song and album
I absolutely love Nikko's drumming in this song. It's definitely some of his best.
Incredible masterpiece. The overall dreamy atmosphere of the 7th Son album is amazing!
love this song…
Infinite Dreams is not only my favorite Maiden song but it’s one of my favorite songs of all time
Great breakdown of one of Maiden's best songs. I've always loved how Dave & Adrian's guitars complemented one another, and not just followed what the other was doing. This song demonstrates this concept wonderfully.
Dave hit the spot with those Hendrixy licks. It's also cool how Dave usually stuck with the neck pickup for his solos, as opposed to Adrian's lead bridge tones. This adds more color and makes the players more recognizable.
Add to that Steve's amazing bass lines, Nicko's virtuosity (his playing on the 7th Son title track is out of this world and builds up atmosphere magnificently), and last but not least the good old Air Raid Siren's operatic prowess.
A truly unique band with unmatched song writing skills. Very few are on the same level as Iron Maiden.
Wow, that was just brilliant, Nico! I couldn’t agree more as when you said that’s something we “can’t” but it’s definitely something we can feel. That’s what Maiden and metal music is for me: feeling.
Thanks so much for this one. Any song you touch, you make it gold. Nice job, mate!
I absolutely love this song. It's an underappreciated gem.
Spot on Nico! Beautiful track. Gives me the chills. The guitar parts in the verse are very Hendrixy I find. John Frusciante from the Chili Peppers uses a lot of that in his playing also. Unmissable. Great channel buddy, cheers from Wales 🏴 UK to you and yours.
My favorite Iron Maiden song
It blew me away when I first heard it in 89, it still blows me away now. Up the Irons!
Amazing song. One of my favourites. Thanks for such an incredibly skillful breakdown.
I love the song the prisoner from the number of the beast album but it seems to get overlooked
I could listen to this song forever.
My fav. Maiden song ever.
The whole album is an absolute Masterpiece! Up the Irons!🤘🤩
This was the best video I've seen în years on youtube. Another song I think it would be cool to make such analysis on it is The Prophecy, from the same album
This was a really good video Chip, I completely agree! It turned out perfectly, I think Nico’s outdone himself on quality here.
Thank you so much! It's a huge compliment 🙏
Prophecy is a wonderful song indeed... Definitely worth a closer look!
Awesome album and song!
I lovw your channel and its contribution to heavy metal history and exploration.
Yes. My favorite Maiden song.
My favorite song all-time from favorite Maiden album of all-time.
This song is definitely a prime example of why iron maiden is brilliant!!!
It is my favourite song. Trooper from indonesia
That Interlude is indeed possibly the best Maiden has ever written.... (beside the interludes / harmonies in the Loneliness of the long distance runner! :-)
I absolutely love your videos, especially the ones like this. I would really enjoy seeing a video about a song from a matter of life and death, its defenitly my favorite album after Seventh son of a seventh son.
Thank you so much!
AMOLAD is one of my favourites as well so I will definitely do something from that album!!
Another thing that stands out on Seventh Son of the Seventh Son is how much palm-muted rhythm work there is and how heavy the bottom end of the sound is. No other Iron Maiden album is more old school heavy metal in terms of rhythm guitar work than Seventh Son of a Seventh Son.
This is my favortie maiden song. my favorite album
Superb analysis.
Id like to see you tackle "Keeper of the Seven Keys" parts 1 & 2. Heavily 'Maiden influenced, Helloween managed to synthesise the speed of Thrash metal (eg Metallica & Anthrax), with neoclassical shred (eg Malmsteen), with nods to both early 'Maiden right up to SSOASS.
The late 80's were awesome for metal and musically, Donington MoR 1988 was an absolute pinnacle of the genre.
Love that song
This is definately best Maiden song.
In other words, Adrian and Dave are far more genius on the guitar than many of us realize? Thank you for the amazing breakdown of all this.
Such a cool video, and what a song, indeed!
I was happy to hear you point out Dave’s Little Wing influence, because I love those parts.
Infinite Dreams perfectly showcases that chemistry between Dave and Adrian that made Killers through SSoaSS so iconic. I remember Adrian saying that he couldn’t imagine having that kind of connection with anyone else. SSoaSS is such a magical album, and was perfect with which to end the 80s.
Ah yes that mental thing ☺️ You're absolutely right...it really was a perfect end to the 80s. Like a culmination of everything they built up until that point, before moving towards a different sound and approach. Glad you enjoyed the video 😊
Cool comment C B. I hadn’t heard that about Adrian’s statement about playing with Dave, but I totally believe that one for sure. Real cool, thanks for sharing that. Have a good one!
And oh yes, that Hendrix influence is so cool!
@@CC-qb9sm 😊 Nico actually got his quote more accurate. Adrian said “mental thing.” So cool! If I can find that interview I’ll link it! Cheers! 🤘
Fave Maiden song, no arguments. Brilliant breakdown mate.
I love the whole song and especially love the drumline. Or any instrument in it I concentrate to with all my nerves.
I never paid much attention to this song until I heard it on Maiden England live VHS. It’s so well done
Esta fue la primera canción que escuché de Iron Maiden y desde allí quedé enganchado. The best. Saludos desde Panamá
Your breakdowns of how intricate Maiden songs are is amazing! It really shows how brilliant Maiden is and how talented you are as well to break it down and show everyone! Great content, love your channel!
Just love this song.....
The way that both Dave and Adrian merge and melt their styles into this infinite build up that finally ends up in that scream is just beautiful and perfect!!
one of my favorite Maiden songs too. So many layers, such a beautiful melody. Great video Nico... Looking forward to getting this song down...
1000 thanks!! It's definitely a fun one to play along with once you get some of those little nuances in there. 😃
@@LicksOfTheBeast and nuances are the name of the game with Maiden..
Great song, amazing playing.
This is my all time Favorite Maiden song ever. I sang it to my daughter at bed time every night after story time.
That's amazing!!
My fav Iron Maiden song without a doubt! \m/ the reason: I think this song encompasses all aspects of Iron Maiden, fantastic solo, melody, dual guitars, rhythm guitar! Killer song!
My absolute favorite Maiden song, great video Nico!! UP THE IRONS 🤘
Another highlight of the Seventh Son of a Seventh Son album is actually the GK 250ML guitar amp. The three-dimensional crunch, the huge bottom end, and the gorgeous chorus on that amp make the album as much as the songs themselves.
Was wondering when youll talke this one. I think it really stands out a lot in their catalog very Hendrixy sounding in the verse.
Phenomenal breakdown my man 🎸
Thanks, Niko, fantastic. One of my favourite Iron Maiden songs. Love your playing and your channel.
Still my favorite Maiden song. Thanks for this breakdown brother!
Simply (for me) the best Maiden song.
You just played an Iron Maiden bass line........WITH A PICK!!!! You should be Expecting Eddie to show up at some point and have a little "Talk" with you. Good luck my friend. LOL awesome breakdown of a song that really represents everything great about this band.
Well it was between either playing it halfway decent with a pick or totally butcher it with my horrible finger picking so... I went with the lesser of two evils 😄
Glad you enjoyed the vid, man!
Cheers 🤜🤛
Wow! That's so awesome that you partly explained all that great riffs! Love this song so much, but you did great work! Thank you!
another classic guitar harmony song, i do end up jumping from my faves albums, Piece of Mind, Somewhere in Time, Seventh Son, i listen to these 3 in particular and each is my favorite at that moment
My all time favoruite song. Love it.
Thank you for this video, Infinite Dreams is probably my favorite song ever.
gracias por tu análisis..... SIT es también mi album favorito de Maiden
Man , these breakdowns are NEXT LEVEL! Amazing Nico
Would love to see a breakdown of ... THE THIN LINE BETWEEN LOVE AND HATE
Maybe my favourite Maiden song from my favourite Maiden album. SSOASS represents the time I rediscovered the band after drifting away during the Peice Of Mind period. I'd discovered a liking for prog and when I heard this album I was overjoyed to find the band incorporating more progressive elements into their music.
This is a song that I tried to learn in every detail. It’s not easy for the way the guitars “talk” to each other. Also, your version seems the most precise. I know it’s a lot of work but a tab would definitely be useful! I’ll use this video to perfection my playing anyway! Up the irons
My favorite Iron Maiden song! Thanks for the analisys!
Nico, you put a ton of work into this. Thanks for your efforts. Awesome channel!!
Absolutely one of their best, IMO.
Great breakdown. My fav track on the 7th Son Album. \m/
My favorite song from my favorite Maiden album...Wonderful job on the breakdown/analysis of it.
This is one of the most beautiful Iron Maiden's songs, of course...
One of my favs, no doubt ;thanks a lot for this detailed video!
As always awesome breakdown. When I saw Chapter 3 of the History tours "Maiden England" in Calgary AB, I really hoped that they would have played this live. But they didn't. But at least I got to see "Seventh Son" Live...Dream come true forsure!
Infinite Dreams is quite an underrated song to be honest. I love how the group can bring everything together and create a solid storyline. It's one of many things that drew me to Iron Maiden. Ever since listening to you, I've begun to pick up some of the subtle notes that you talked about; not exactly easy but you can hear them.
Thank you for your videos that you describe iron maiden music,seems to me such some kind of musicology!!
You are a god... I hope the band is in contact with you and covers you with goodies...
You give so much depth into explaining WHY Maiden is way ahead of other metal bands.
Their musicianship is at another level. Not the heaviest, not the fastest, but definitely comparable to prog and classic rock legends in term of brilliant writing.
Maybe my favourite Harris song, along with Caught Somewhere in Time. For all the reasons you mentioned. The lyrics had a huge impact on me. They resonate deep inside of me. Beautiful work Nico and, once again, congratulations!
Thanks for this lesson !! ❤This song encapsulate the essence of everything i love in Iron Maiden. Everything is so perfect in this song, the lyrics, the melodies , the solos..This metaphysical feeling of adventure and mystery..I am so grateful to have be exposed to this poetry when i was young, and i listen to it ..again..and again..and again..
This has been one of my absoulute favourite songs by Iron Maiden ever since I, as a kid, watched my dad's old VHS with Maiden England. Such an amazing song with great arrangements. This is probably my favourite to play on guitar also!
This was an *amazing* breakdown! Bravo! I'd love to hear more like this! Anything from *Somewhere in Time* or *7th Son* would be phenomenal, particularly both title tracks as they're quite progressive.
Thanks a ton!
Now we're talking the album that got me into maiden and one of my favourite maiden tracks great breakdown as always 👍
Love this song and your break down of it.
i have always loved Infinite Dreams. It is sad that they have rarely played it in concert. I think the Maiden England concert video they put out a year or so after SSOASS was released, they played it. Hoping one day, before they decide to call it quits, they decide to play it live, again. Great video here, Nico!!!! Many thanks!!👍👍👍
they rehearsed it in 2012 intending to play it on that tour and they decided against it and went with Afraid to Shoot Strangers. A few of us tracked Rod down after the Atlanta gig and asked him where that song was. It's my favorite from that album.
One piece of art ❤️
Uno dei miei pezzi preferiti dal mio album preferito .
One of the best channels ever!!!!!!!!!
That's so kind of you to say. 1000 thanks!!!
Bravo Nico!!! I've been waiting for this song for months!! Thanks a lot!
Infinite Dreams is a thing of beauty, one of my all time favourite tracks 🤘
One of my favourites for sure. Criminal that it was only played on the SSOASS tour
For a non-guitar guy like myself, you've made this video very educational and entertaining. And also made me be more aware of more subtle changes in this song the next time I listen.
You the man, Nico! 👊
I would like to hear the break down one of my favourites songs of Iron Maiden The Nomad. Great job on this one! Up the Irons!
Nico, thanks! Absolutely killer video! Enjoyed your cover video & this is just icing on the the cake. Looking forward to other videos on breakdowns. May I request The Evil That Men Do, The Prophecy & To Tame a Land. Keep up the Great Work 🙏!
I love this song. What a great album.
Excellent as always. It feel like Dave was the driving force for this song? - oh and Tears of a Clown
Thanks! Adrian was playing the "main" parts and Dave was adding more of the embellishments. But obviously you can't have one without the other. A one guitar version of this song would sound pretty flat 😄
This is the best video on RUclips. Thank you! You made me love the greatest song in history even more!
Thank you! I'm really happy to know you're enjoying it even more!! 😃
Awesome, just awesome!! I was planning on making this my next multi instrument project and your analysis has really helped!
...iron maiden perfection...
Maiden fan for 30+ years, but this song has a different "feeling" and it's been my fav since knowing the band, great vid! Up the Irons!
Awesome video, would love to see a deep dive into Caught Somewhere in Time!
Thank you and awesome suggestion!
7th Son was first Maiden album I ever listened when I was 11 years old and I was absolutely astonished from the title track masterpiece! Infinite Dreams is one of my favourite track off the album and from entire Maiden discography along with The Clairvoyant and The Prophecy...
I recently discovered your channel, great job dude! Maiden was my first metal band and still my favourite one
cheers from Italy
Seventh Son rimane un grandissimo capolavoro. Grazie mille e salutoni dal Canada! 🤜🤛
Infinite dreams is my favourite maiden track.. your dissection and break down just shows how epic and complicated that song is and why it's so good!!! Also you're clearly very talented..
Congratularions from Brazil! You are The best!
