Yes Bruce Dickinson is a true British Legend I wish you would have left the band The First Time is a singer or two that they had after him really sucked I am glad that he's back I'm glad that he's survived that cancer is cancer is not an easy thing to survive I lost my sister and my best friend do that that shitt disease I'm just glad that he made it through and you still singing and performing I love Iron Maiden
mickor you cannot say that book of souls or final frontier is written by a band in a rut, theyre vastly different from killers, virtual or even powerslave but you cant compare them, iron maiden are THAT good you cant compare their albums
Maiden fans (including myself) think they should've been in it 20 years ago. Someone pointed out though is metal really rock n roll or what was created cause rock n roll wasnt good enough?
Matthew Macrow To be fair, Maiden only qualified to be considered 14 years ago. Performers qualify for consideration 25 years after their first record. It may be that for Maiden with Dickinson to qualify, they might only have qualified about 12 years ago.
@@Eagle-eye-pie AFAIK, lineup changes don't matter - it's 25 years from the release of a band/artist's first record. Metallica got inducted in 2009, and then Rob Trujillo had only been in the band for 6 years.
Justin Bieber : I have a private jet Iron Maiden : Well That's cute.... Flies a Boeing 757 across 13 countries doing 23 shows in 45 days.. Also flies a boeing 747 for the book of souls tour. No band will ever reach this level of epicness. Up the Irons!
5:25 As someone who's a big fan of Iron Maiden, and who's played guitar for most of his life, I can honestly say that the magic in Iron Maiden's sound is more in their hands than in their gear. Every single member is insanely skilled at their instrument, and their ability to combine all of their individual styles to create a single unified sound is exactly why they're so revered as a band.
As a fellow guitar player, you're spot on with your observation. I grew up on Maiden, Priest, Def Leppard, and AC/DC before hitting the pinnacle of metal with Slayer :) . The amazing thing about Maiden that I learned from covering their songs in the band I was in during high school...is the harmonies between guitars. It's so perfectly synced one plays high and the other low...and VERY difficult to play together (the song itself isn't difficult...it's how tight they are as a band). It took a lot of practice to play this song fairly well (as opposed to Flight of Icarus, Hallowed be Thy Name, etc). They other thing is that they're not married to 4/4 time that you hear in most metal. Funny thing...the bass player loved playing Steve Harris' bass lines... Of course, the flip side of that he HATED when we played AC/DC. LOL
@@slayer99199 Yeah they had all the guitars mirroring each other playing lead, no rhythm guitars really. That was left up to Steve's galloping bass parts.
@@slayer99199 well said my friend well said Iron Maiden Slayer Judas Priest old ACDC with Bon Scott that was a ship back in the days and you can't forget Mercyful Fate and King Diamond totally fuckingawesome
@@MichaelRCarlson what the fuck are you talking about you can't be a perfect band if you don't have fucking Rhythm and your guitar work and Ian Smith and fucking Dave Murray are fucking Guitar Gods and they have plenty of Rhythm and style to your ship and yes Steve Harris is a base God
What I admire of Bruce is that he doesn't stop running from one side of the stage to the other the whole show... and he still had breath to keep singing.
I seen them and I was right up against the stage and let me tell you, it's two show one of Steve Nico Adrian Janick and Dave doing the music while in the second show of Bruce bouncing around and screaming like he does and I was surprised my neck didn't hurt as much and I didn't get whiplash the next morning from fallowing him 😂
@@Alexander-ck1up nordic metal is my favorite! sweden and norway def lead the way, but you can't leave out the bands from finland, especially amorphis and children of bodom.
The Trooper was a song about the Charge of the Light Brigade. They are great at historical themes from Britain. Aces High is about the Battle of Britain in WW2, Invader is about the Viking Conquests...really cool subjects.
@bethroars, The Trooper is about the Charge of the Light Brigade during the Crimean War. Read Alfred Lord Tennyson's "The Charge of the Light Brigade". Over half of the brigade was killed during the charge.
And a world class fencer who got invited to the olympics. He also hosted a train show for a bit on one of the education channels about high speed trains. I randomly saw it one day and was like wtf thats bruce!
Agreed, I've seen them two times for sure, maybe a third, I can't remember anymore lol. All in the last 15 years. The shows are an energetic and amazing experience. I also saw Judas Priest on their anniversary tour for British Steel. And not knocking on either, but Rob Halford put his energy into his voice and presence, both still demanding and amazing. But, at the same age you have Bruce, similarly aged, but he still runs around the stage, does multiple costume changes, and still belts it. Two different methods that still put on impactful shows.
I went to M.E.N.A to see them and the band was amazing but the sound was down right awful in the arena. It sure wasn't the acoustics because AC/DC were amazing from the mosh pit to the back wall.
"There's something so specific about that Iron Maiden guitar sound." It's how the two guitars have perfectly meshed harmonies, while Harris' bass is providing clanky syncopated rhythm.
Yes he's more controlled now. This past tour he was perfect. Gotta also remember he's way into this gig, running around non stop, all full of energy/action and still maintain his breath and control...Not bad for an old man..
This was from the Maiden England tour in 2012. I was in the crowds in calgary, and it was the most amazing concert I've ever been to. I still remember they started their set with "Moonchild", one of my favourites. Bruce is a role model for singers to aspire to. Cancer survivor. Hes 62, and yet he has his commercial pilots licence (he flies the band's Boeing 747 from city to city for gigs.) Hes never had formal voice training, and yet he can still sing like he does. Nothing but respect for this man! Up the Irons! \m/ \m/
I'm going to see them in September. The guitarists have some of the best and simplest uses of harmony in metal. Their ability to play off each other, knowing when to take the lead and when to back off is key to their sound and longevity.
Bruce is a legend, even with his age and after recovered from throat cancer, the guys runs back and forth on the stage holding a huge flag and stay singing at full power! Amazing!
Even ignoring that he'll be turning 61 this year, Bruce's voice has aged gracefully. Like you said his timbre has changed, but it's not a deterioration. Most importantly, his energy remains unmatched.
Some bands produce great albums, some still can recreate their album sound live, then there's Iron Maiden who does both but adds theatricality into their live shows, meaning that there is an element to enjoy in their show for absolutely anyone to enjoy. Hands down the best band I've seen live.
@@hv1225 first of all, try to write correctly. Now, I stated that this song has nothing to do with politics not a war. If the song is about war doesn't mean it is about politics. This way, you can draw analogy just to basically anything you want, because it makes no sense thinking that if one thing relates to another, it must relate to other one that last relates to. If you actually start giving me some facts and we are gonna have appropriate intelligent discussion, in down for it. Right now, you just misunderstand what I say (I literally used the easiest language I could) and try to assault or offense me for no reason
The song was only inspired by the poem 'The Charge of the Light Brigade' by Tennyson who wrote it about the Battle of Balaclava during the Crimean War.
guitarists, like singers and other soloists, phrase things in their own way and Maiden have a definite house style. Aidrian Smith is quite blues based, Janick is very much a "let's see what comes out" kind of soloist and Dave Murray is one of the most underrated solo guitarists in metal. flowing style and a perfect sense of melody.
Iron Maiden is the definition of TIGHT... Musicianship, vocally and amazingly crowd participation, their music among their huge fan base is so well known that the crowd of many thousands are so dialed in there in perfect time. It's incredible...
You want to hear some clean vocals listen to the fucking King Diamond that's incredible quotes for you and Rob Halford of Judas Priest that you guys are awesome
Thanks Beth, it's always truly amazing to see your glancing eyes and real happiness to things that are great like this. Bruce is definitely a human monster of a singer, human being and entertainer. He is in the 60...that is unbelievable.....running, screaming, singing, entertaining, flying a 747, becoming a honorary Citizen of Sarajevo, author....what else...seeing this video reminds on the Iron Maiden concerts I had the pleasure to visit and later together with my son. It also reminds to not forget to see them again...yes the voice might have changed but it is 1000 times better than anybody would expect, keeping in mind what he made through, i.e. the tongue cancer, and what he is still doing. Thanks Beth, you are amazing and he is a legend, as well as all the others from the band....cheers from Germany
That concert was in my country... Chile 🇨🇱 🤘... This year they gonna play again but I can't go because the tickets are sold out, even gonna make a second concert and the tickets was sold by web in 30 mins...
The first time I saw Iron Maiden was in 1982. It was Bruce Dickinson's first tour with Maiden and they opened for the Scorpions. I sat 4th row dead center and can still vividly remember being floored at how good they were. And seeing the original Eddie come out on stage was insane! I'm old now but that just means I was young when it counted! 🤘
I was at this show, live at the Estadio Nacional in Santiago de Chile...absolutely amazing performance, Bruce shined throughout the show. I will be there again this year, can’t wait!!
This is from the En Vivo tour prior to Bruce’s cancer and subsequent treatment. It would be interesting to see you look at something from either “The Book of Souls” or “Legacy of the Beast” tours as they are post cancer treatment. Bruce was extremely concerned about the possibility of the radiation treatments frying his vocal cords and he worked very closely with his doctor’s to ensure minimal damage. The thing with Maiden and touring is that they have no intention of slowing down, in fact they seem to be touring more than ever now.
Hi Beth! I've been watching your channel for a considerable time, and I'd like to tell you that I do enjoy watching your reacting videos it's just amazing. I'd love to leave a maiden suggestion here of a song that I personally think that is actually maybe one of the greatest Dickinson's vocal performance ever in terms of vocal techniques. The song is called "Infinite Dreams" from their very classic album "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son" that was released in 1988. I hope to see you reacting to this one on your channel as soon as possible.
Seen Iron Maiden over 40 times (a mate of mine is a sound technician for them and has been for over 20 years) so i've even had the chance to go backstage and meet the guys to. Bruce is the nicest and most interesting fella you'd ever wish to meet, my mate loves working for him, he's a perfectionist but not over the top about it, he is also an inspirational character to go through what he went through and come out the other side even stronger, he is amazing!!!
That performance is said to use some extra vocal tracks to aid his vocals. Basically some of the vocal parts were pre-recorded. Still overall a highly impressive take on Kashmir. The best live version IMO. Don't know how credible this claim is because I only read it on a forum post.
I saw this song live on their book of souls tour in Minneapolis. In the smell of sweat, weed booze and excitement. It felt like I saw the same show all the longtime fans have seen before, and the longtime concertgoers told me the same thing. They bring a steady stream of epic theatrics and energy that can't be replicated.
@ Alex they are both iconic metal singers who have their own unique sound. Range should never be used as a way to indicate how good a singer one is. How well someone works within their range is most important and both of those guys can do that very well. Who you prefer is a matter of opinion....
Rob's range might be good, but his cords aged much worse than Bruce, I still like both but it's obvious that Dickinson is in a much better shape vocally for last decade. And I like Priest more than Maiden. Also, REALLY?! Nicko McBrain over Scott Travis?.. Both men are legends but come on, Painkiller and onwards, Judas Priest has better rhythm section. I love Blaze Bayley and Paul Di'Anno eras of Maiden though.
5 лет назад
@@KasumiRINA yes, nicko is technically better, but maidens music isnt"painkiller" aggresive and that doesnt mean he is better. Ill give you the fact bruce, considering the cancer scare, is in a much healthier state than halford currently but not until recently was he that way. I feel like bruce is a bright light versus halford who is more about the image and industrialism. Not taking any thing away from either band, i love them both so much.
I love Iron Maiden. Their songs are one of the first songs I can remember in my life. I sadly have never been on a concert and would love to. But to be honest, while everyone says that Bruce is getting better with getting older and stuff like that, for me it feels like he sounds like he always is out of breath. But that doesn't mean that I wouldn't love to go to a concert and also it's so amazing that they can still perform so amazing and that Bruce can still sing like that after everything
Hi Beth! I was there, in that tremendous and spectacular concert in Santiago, Chile, april 2011, Estadio Nacional. That concert was tremendous, the wonderful band and Bruce ... here are no words that can describe what it is to see him on stage, they felt the love of us Chileans and they paid for it with a great concert. Best regards.
You should try the songs paschendaele or the longest day Underrated as hell songs but both show his vocal range really well Paschendaele live from 2003 germany is awesome And the longest day dormund 2006 live (it's like phone footage but it's really good quality)
Hi Beth, i was in the audience that day... and it was crazy, what an amazing show they present. Well, this video was recorded when they came for the last time to Chile, and this october they are coming back again and i will be there feelling that energy and drinking their " Trooper beer", cheers!!!!
Iron Maiden is unique in the music world. I've been a fan for 38 years. Because of life and where I chose to live, I've only seen them once in concert. It was epic. My son has seen them 3 times in Europe and America. Lucky bastard.
Hi, Beth, I'm from Mexico and I've been listening rock and roll since ever and I'm a big fan of your channel because I think you respect and enjoy singers we have been listening forever. Thanks.
@@TrollingInTheDeep yeah I love their version of it. I just think Danny Filfth would be awesome on the evil that men do. That's one of my favorite songs 👍
Wow, does this take me back to my youth... They've still got it. Actually, they may have more energy here than I did in my youth. lo Oooh, you should do a Motorhead reaction! That would be wicked fun.
This video is from Chile. We love Iron Maiden. This year we have 2 shows that alredy sold out. 100.000 metalheads enjoying like one only soul. I watched Bruce 3 times in my life and it was... Cathartic. Maiden, Chile is your home 💜 Great video!!
@Beth Roars: As a Guitar player for 27 years, aspiring somewhat trained vocalist inspired by Bruce Dickinson, and avid Maiden fan, this band is amazing, they are the reason i'm still here, and now I get to share them with my Daughter when we go see them in August. It is from trying to mimic Bruce that i've grown my voice drastically just trying to be able to sing theirs and others songs, also James La Brie of Dream Theater which i saw you reacted to Under A Glass Moon (from the album Images and Words, which also changed my life and i credit for still being here as well).
Hello Beth, from Fort Worth, Texas. I am so glad I have your videos to watch again and again. I have learned a lot from them. Metal and Rock and Roll are my favorite genres. My friends and family tell me that I sing well. You are a breath of fresh air under the situation the World is going through. My guitars and RUclips are a blessing. Sina drums and all the guitar tutorials. Music is the best, no matter what you listen too.
Saw them live in 2019 and although they don't move around the stage as much as the old days, they still sounded fantastic and put on an amazing show. I lost my voice for a day or two from singing along, so credit due to singers who can keep it going.
They did make a beer! I kept a bottle for posterity. Lol! I was lucky to see them live in the early 2000's... definitely one of the best shows I've ever witnessed.
Let's not forget that Bruce is a cancer survivor. The man really is a legend.
Throat cancer as well. Had his instrument taken away from it and he stole it back like an absolute legend
Yes Bruce Dickinson is a true British Legend I wish you would have left the band The First Time is a singer or two that they had after him really sucked I am glad that he's back I'm glad that he's survived that cancer is cancer is not an easy thing to survive I lost my sister and my best friend do that that shitt disease I'm just glad that he made it through and you still singing and performing I love Iron Maiden

he is also an airline pilot and once brought brits home that where stranded abroad...he flew a 747 at his own expence to help...iv met him great guy
wish him well, Bruce is perhaps one of the nicest singers out there.
How many guitars do you need on stage?
Irons : Yes
How many arms does your drummer need?
Def Leppard: One.
Jannik is cool. Glad they kept him when adrian Smith came back
How many bass pedals do you need?
Nicko: one
3 =)
As many as possible
Not only has his voice aged but he recovered from throat cancer, luckily saw them live again at Wembley last year \m/
Came here to say that. Yep, he's a trooper!
What he had wasn't throat cancer, it was in his tongue and was caused by the HPV virus.
yea you can really hear this was during the time he was still recovering
chesus D Saw him on the Legacy of the beast tour and he was on top of his game again. So thankful for having Bruce!
@@Module79L don't lick those skanky groupies.
Long career, throat cancer, Olympic (definitely commonwealth) level athlete at fencing 🤺, Airline pilot. Legendary voice
He was also a soldier and I believe he has several degrees including one in history.
And that's just the triangle player ;)
you forgot all around nice guy, and beer enthusiast, partnered with Robinson's to make trooper ale, and sun and steel saki lager...
Wow Bruce is an all rounder
A true Renaissance Man!!
It is a CRIME this band is not already in the Rock 'n Roll HOF
Didn't Bruce say he wouldn't accept?
The Hall is a joke anyway.

@Phry3 I saw them on this tour, 2011, maybe 2012?
Yes, if anything, this song is quite patriotic. The holes are more a sign of glory than anything negative.
Exactly - it's a song about war, and the Colours would often get battered on the field.
Isnt war a political statement?
Defeating russians in Crimea will always be a political statement (ruskies won that battle, cannons vs horses, but lost the war).
Nicko Mcbrain is one of the most underrated drummers in the world! Great musician, a legend!
Tuomo Turunen I disagree, I think he gets his due and then some. Up the Irons!
Far from underrated one of the most respected and influential drummers out there.
Every drummer knows the pain of learning run to the hills.
"Run to the Hills" was from the Clive Burr days! Nicko plays it great, too, though. I give Burr the edge over Nicko, but both rule.

You should really react to the Talisman from en vivo! Probably Bruce's best performance in the 2000s
I 2nd this
Rock in rio 2001, best performance in 2000 if you ask me.
I just saw them a month ago and they’re still on top of their game, and hands one of the best performances I’ve ever seen
That concert was in my country... Chile 🇨🇱 🤘... This year they gonna play again but I can't go because the tickets are sold out, even gonna make a second concert and the tickets was sold by web in 30 mins...
Wena qlo
The first time I saw Iron Maiden was in 1982. It was Bruce Dickinson's first tour with Maiden and they opened for the Scorpions. I sat 4th row dead center and can still vividly remember being floored at how good they were. And seeing the original Eddie come out on stage was insane!
I'm old now but that just means I was young when it counted!
🤘
Saw them live, unforgettable ❤️
I was at this show, live at the Estadio Nacional in Santiago de Chile...absolutely amazing performance, Bruce shined throughout the show.
I will be there again this year, can’t wait!!
Queensryche - Take Hold of the Flame live in Tokyo 1984
An iconic voice if there ever was one. Good call.
Best moment of my live was seeing them live in Cape Town. I never thought they would ever come here, blew my mind!
This is from the En Vivo tour prior to Bruce’s cancer and subsequent treatment.
It would be interesting to see you look at something from either “The Book of Souls” or “Legacy of the Beast” tours as they are post cancer treatment. Bruce was extremely concerned about the possibility of the radiation treatments frying his vocal cords and he worked very closely with his doctor’s to ensure minimal damage.
The thing with Maiden and touring is that they have no intention of slowing down, in fact they seem to be touring more than ever now.
After the throat cancer his voice recovered very well, maybe it sounds now better than before as you watched the recent tour before corona came in
I saw them live a few years ago, they're still rocking hard all these years into their career
Hi Beth! I've been watching your channel for a considerable time, and I'd like to tell you that I do enjoy watching your reacting videos it's just amazing. I'd love to leave a maiden suggestion here of a song that I personally think that is actually maybe one of the greatest Dickinson's vocal performance ever in terms of vocal techniques. The song is called "Infinite Dreams" from their very classic album "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son" that was released in 1988. I hope to see you reacting to this one on your channel as soon as possible.
"En Vivo", Chile 2010...I was there! I had tears in my eyes while singing along...Iron Maiden IS the soundtrack of my life...UP THE IRONS!!
The Trooper is one in a series of Iron-Maiden themed beers from the Robinsons brewery.
I’ve seen them live on their last 3 Australian tours. He’s gotten better with age, just like a good single malt whisky
Iron Maiden - Dance of Death - En Vivo. can you please react to that one? amazing performance
Seen Iron Maiden over 40 times (a mate of mine is a sound technician for them and has been for over 20 years) so i've even had the chance to go backstage and meet the guys to. Bruce is the nicest and most interesting fella you'd ever wish to meet, my mate loves working for him, he's a perfectionist but not over the top about it, he is also an inspirational character to go through what he went through and come out the other side even stronger, he is amazing!!!
"Rime of the ancient mariner" at Long beach Arena pls next!
Too long and too many long spaces without "action"..would be uncomfortable for her in a reaction video.
The band’s and crowd’s energies make their concerts an experience like no other bands. Saw them twice and blown away both times.
Led Zeppelin's Kashmir live at O2 Arena Celebration Day reunion concert 2007.
Absolutely. Robert Plant's control in that is phenomenal.
That performance is said to use some extra vocal tracks to aid his vocals. Basically some of the vocal parts were pre-recorded. Still overall a highly impressive take on Kashmir. The best live version IMO. Don't know how credible this claim is because I only read it on a forum post.
The best version of Kasmir was at o2 concert ..amazing
I saw this song live on their book of souls tour in Minneapolis.
In the smell of sweat, weed booze and excitement.
It felt like I saw the same show all the longtime fans have seen before, and the longtime concertgoers told me the same thing.
They bring a steady stream of epic theatrics and energy that can't be replicated.
IMO Bruce knocks out “Run to the Hills” with an unmatched vocal range and sound.
Any of the songs off number of the beast he shows off his range. One of my favourite Bruce tracks isnt even a maiden one it's off tyranny of souls
Nah sorry he has never been as good as rob halford in range
@ Alex they are both iconic metal singers who have their own unique sound. Range should never be used as a way to indicate how good a singer one is. How well someone works within their range is most important and both of those guys can do that very well. Who you prefer is a matter of opinion....
Rob's range might be good, but his cords aged much worse than Bruce, I still like both but it's obvious that Dickinson is in a much better shape vocally for last decade. And I like Priest more than Maiden. Also, REALLY?! Nicko McBrain over Scott Travis?.. Both men are legends but come on, Painkiller and onwards, Judas Priest has better rhythm section. I love Blaze Bayley and Paul Di'Anno eras of Maiden though.
@@KasumiRINA yes, nicko is technically better, but maidens music isnt"painkiller" aggresive and that doesnt mean he is better. Ill give you the fact bruce, considering the cancer scare, is in a much healthier state than halford currently but not until recently was he that way. I feel like bruce is a bright light versus halford who is more about the image and industrialism. Not taking any thing away from either band, i love them both so much.
Nico playing that kick drum with one pedal. Amazing guys. Saw them back in the 80's. Still amazing.
The Trooper has always been quite "shouty", maybe try something like Sign of the Cross or The Clansman.
I love Iron Maiden. Their songs are one of the first songs I can remember in my life. I sadly have never been on a concert and would love to.
But to be honest, while everyone says that Bruce is getting better with getting older and stuff like that, for me it feels like he sounds like he always is out of breath.
But that doesn't mean that I wouldn't love to go to a concert and also it's so amazing that they can still perform so amazing and that Bruce can still sing like that after everything
Please try King Diamond “arrival” live at graspop. Multi octave singer who uses falsettos
King Diamond is amazing
mike mahoney Or "Family Ghost":) Or anything from "Abigail" and "Them" era...King is one of my favourite,a living legend! Unique and amazing.
Hi Beth! I was there, in that tremendous and spectacular concert in Santiago, Chile, april 2011, Estadio Nacional.
That concert was tremendous, the wonderful band and Bruce ... here are no words that can describe what it is to see him on stage, they felt the love of us Chileans and they paid for it with a great concert. Best regards.
You should try the songs paschendaele or the longest day
Underrated as hell songs but both show his vocal range really well
Paschendaele live from 2003 germany is awesome
And the longest day dormund 2006 live (it's like phone footage but it's really good quality)
Ooo Paschendale
Paschendale is one of my favourite maiden tracks ever. You're right, so underrated!
Hi Beth, i was in the audience that day... and it was crazy, what an amazing show they present. Well, this video was recorded when they came for the last time to Chile, and this october they are coming back again and i will be there feelling that energy and drinking their " Trooper beer", cheers!!!!
You should do The Talisman live in En Vivo, that was a recent bruce performance that was even better than the studio version!
Iron Maiden is unique in the music world. I've been a fan for 38 years. Because of life and where I chose to live, I've only seen them once in concert. It was epic.
My son has seen them 3 times in Europe and America. Lucky bastard.
Wikipedia, for once, is bang on about the beer. It's pretty damn good too.
Hi, Beth, I'm from Mexico and I've been listening rock and roll since ever and I'm a big fan of your channel because I think you respect and enjoy singers we have been listening forever. Thanks.
7:21 in this instance it's correct, had trooper beer, they sell it around europe at least
Trooper beer is the best, i was said as i realised my liqourstore took it out of it's range
If this was taken from their 2008 Australian tour in Sydney, then I was in that audience. I lost it. It was so energetic and unbelievable.
they do make a beer called Trooper, its one of my personal favourites. I was drinking it last night in fact :)
They did a Golden one too!
Yeah. Not a good beer but nice decoration
@@jarlbalgruufthegreater1758 Fr tho. I have 1 for decoration. Awful taste
You should definitely go see them Beth. The energy these guys have is amazing and you can tell that they enjoy what they are doing.
Please next react to Infinite Dreams or Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son live performance from Maiden England!!!please🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Infinite Dreams has been my request on so many reaction channels.
Yep, Infinite Deams from England '88. Doesn´t get much better than that!
That is an amazing song but I would kill to hear Cradle of Filfth cover the evil that men do
@@tonyaviles5308 Hallowed Be Thy Name's cover by Cradle is better!!!
@@TrollingInTheDeep yeah I love their version of it. I just think Danny Filfth would be awesome on the evil that men do. That's one of my favorite songs 👍
It's always so satisfying when anyone 'gets' metal, because not everyone appreciates it. But it's just such a blast.
Iron Maiden - Paschendale (Live Death on the Road HQ) !!!
Or Revelations Live @ Flight 666. Bruce's voice there is just perfect
It's a perfect blend of not only knowing your limitations as well as not wanting to sing a song the same way over and over.
Full studio version of Cemetery Gates by Pantera please 😁❤
Rob H that part when the duo of whammy and vocal starts I was fucking shocked !!
that guitar thing? its synergy. three soloists in sync, taking turns, complementing, harmonising, making simple.. awesome.
Wow, does this take me back to my youth... They've still got it. Actually, they may have more energy here than I did in my youth. lo
Oooh, you should do a Motorhead reaction! That would be wicked fun.
I've been waiting for a vocal coach type person to do a motorhead reaction!
Hey! Check out my reaction to Motorhead - Ace of Spades here: ruclips.net/video/bC2VrU8rd2o/видео.html
This video is from Chile. We love Iron Maiden. This year we have 2 shows that alredy sold out. 100.000 metalheads enjoying like one only soul. I watched Bruce 3 times in my life and it was... Cathartic. Maiden, Chile is your home 💜
Great video!!
Next time Bruce Dickinson with Tribuzy live Tears of the Dragon. The best version of this amazing song.
Couldn't agree more
An amazing version
YES! Great song and performance by Bruce and the band. Someone needs to react on that one!
@@jonasnestander2053 There is a reaction to it online, can't remember the channels name but he says it touched his soul
he schools Ronaldo when they do Beast in the Light together that show as well…..
@Beth Roars: As a Guitar player for 27 years, aspiring somewhat trained vocalist inspired by Bruce Dickinson, and avid Maiden fan, this band is amazing, they are the reason i'm still here, and now I get to share them with my Daughter when we go see them in August. It is from trying to mimic Bruce that i've grown my voice drastically just trying to be able to sing theirs and others songs, also James La Brie of Dream Theater which i saw you reacted to Under A Glass Moon (from the album Images and Words, which also changed my life and i credit for still being here as well).
They made an ALE (not just any ol' type of beer) and it was delicious :D
Not only does Bruce have the amazing energy to perform, he also flies the 747 for the crew as captain. He is also a fencing expert.
I’ve always loved your videos! Anastasia by slash and Myles Kennedy live would be wonderful to hear your take
Love Slash’s riff on that one.
Going to see them in July again.
Stoked!
sarajamus I am seeing them July 17 at the paramount so yes this is me being excited🤘🏼
Hello Beth, from Fort Worth, Texas. I am so glad I have your videos to watch again and again. I have learned a lot from them. Metal and Rock and Roll are my favorite genres. My friends and family tell me that I sing well. You are a breath of fresh air under the situation the World is going through. My guitars and RUclips are a blessing. Sina drums and all the guitar tutorials. Music is the best, no matter what you listen too.
Awakening by Unleash the Archers. Please ma’am
Or Dreamcrusher live (Dr. Light vid)
Test
your
METAL
Saw them live in 2019 and although they don't move around the stage as much as the old days, they still sounded fantastic and put on an amazing show. I lost my voice for a day or two from singing along, so credit due to singers who can keep it going.
Please next Iron Maiden - Fear of the dark live at Rock in Rio 2001 :)
one of the most beautiful shows that you can see in the earth
You need to do Deep Purple - Child in Time.
Most definitely! I have suggested it a couple of time...
Hey! Here is my reaction to Deep Purple: ruclips.net/video/LZwuzxt341Y/видео.html
They did make a beer! I kept a bottle for posterity. Lol! I was lucky to see them live in the early 2000's... definitely one of the best shows I've ever witnessed.
Bruce is an amazing soul. Good reaction!
Have you reacted to Mercyful Fate / King Diamond yet? If not, it should def be on your list.
They have 3 guitarists now, Janek Gers joined them when Adrian Smith left, then Smith came back and they kept Gers as well! Awesome!! True legends
cant wait to see maiden in august. up the irons \m/
efogg3 me neither. In Cincinnati. I’m excited as hell.
@@billy1977ize buffalo for me. \m/
Hey Beth--after the show Bruce becomes the pilot of the 747 that flies the band to the next gig. The man is beyond talented!!!
