- This was a challenge. But I think I did a good job. Some parts are really close, a few are off a bit. But man, Dickinson has a high range and wide vibrato and I just didn't really try to hit those end high notes and backed it down to the root note instead. It was blowing my pitch software up when I tried that higher note. hehe
Grandson: "Can you tell me a bedtime story grandpa"
Grandpa: Start singing Flight of Icarus \m/ \m/
Epic
Poor kid will be mesmerized. Won't sleep all night.
is a minus affraid .... when sing no present for chrismas .......haaahahahahhaha T t T HIHIHIH
Hahahaha that's awesome! Reminds me of Manowar's "Grandpa, tell me a story!"
@@rockzilla5150 *mesmerized
I always imagined Socrates singing in this style by a cliff overlooking the sea.
Wow!
@@eldibujador lol
lol
Epic comment 🙏⭐
😂😂😂you read my mind
Me: "Nobody can sing Flight of Icarus better then Bruce Dickinson!"
Gandalf: "Hold my beer!"
Beard* lol
true
he did not say he did.

I never imagined that ANYONE could do justice to an Iron Maiden cover. I've never been so pleased to be wrong. Well done, sir. We are not worthy. 🤘
search for Raphael Mendes, its a great cover too, he sings just like Bruce
A woman Iron Maiden fan who is cute as heck...
@@FergusScotchman Really? FFS dude.
@@faluntomelanis168 Who the heck asked your opinion? Or do you just pop off at random to bless others with your judgment and white knightness? I swear, simping thought police are around every corner nowadays waiting to pop off and point fingers.
Dude, your singing is as epic as your beard! I wanna be you when I grow up!!
P.S. I'm 46yo.
...but you have got the beard already...hihi
Awesome picture mate
@@astrasunshine5374 google "dead again"
Sir, you're definitely the kind of grandpa every metalhead would love to have.
I'm 51 years old. I'm old, but not that old. I don't consider this guy old either. Older than me, yes, but not by much. The people that keep calling him Grandpa act like he's in his 80's or 90's or something. You can tell when he's playing guitar in this video and others, when he is shaven, he looks like he could be between 55 and 60. He's a middle aged man, not a 85 year old in a nursing home. Keep On Rockin' Mr. Truth Surge!
Hes definitely the grandpa I d love my kids to have.. let's see, outgoing , enjoying things hes great at,and , showing my grandchild that opinions are like ASS HOLES!! EVERYONE HAS ONE
wdym, he is in his 20ies... He just died his hair and cut it weird... Right...? RIGHT?!
At the time Piece of Mind was relleased he probably at his 20s. He could've been around 50s nowadays. Just guessing.
Man... Zeus singing Iron Maiden! That's EPIC!!!
kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Up the Olimpic Iron's!
Mind the fact that it's Zeus singing a song about its own culture's mythology
My father used to listen to Iron Maiden. However, he only listened to it when he was three sheets into the wind. He always had an affinity for I.M, but I never really understood why. I'm 31 now, and here I am. There is something special about Iron Maiden, and you've done a wonderful cover.
So this is what Santa do when he's not delivering Christmas gifts. Very nice.
Sir i am a heavy metal man. 3days now i cant stop listening to your covers. Well done and i admire you for your passion. Keep going and never stop doing what you really love beacuse this is a real Rock spirit! Greetings from Greece!
Well said, we can only hope to keep the spirit alive when our beards are long and grey.
And just to let you know, the word is spelled passion. Not trying to be a jerk, just want to help. \m/
@@lindyfd1606 Keep on Rocking!
Exactly, man,!! Its very cool!!!
You're totally right about that my Greek brother! A grandpa is one of the most talented voices I ever found over the internet for sure!
Many greetings from Serbia.
God bless you!
Found him by accident amazing covers I"m a die hard Maiden fan. All I can say is amazing. Are you on any of the maiden fan sites on Facebook ?
Official Maiden needs to see this!
what for? you think they are eager to watch tons of rubbish on youtube?
Alexander Smagin lol. Fuckin loser.
It sure would put a smile on their faces.
@@kurtmcmanus5128 It sure would. Especially on Steve's and Bruce's faces. 😊🤘😊🤘
@@alexandersmagin4769 we'd all love to hear your vocals
captain douchebag.
Amazing performance ! Love it ! Scream for him Long Beach ;-)
\,,/ YES !!! \,,/
I ALWAYS say that when listening to Maiden lmao...SCREAM FOR ME LONG BEACH !! Love it...
Haha!!! 👍😊
Perfect reaction!
Man, you brought back my childhood!! 👍😁🤘✌️
ah ha ah ha haha........you are a true Maiden fan if you of the "scream for long beach"....right on metal brother
Haha only a true maiden fan would get that.
Well thanks for your kind support friends ;-) Yes i'm 45 and his performance reminded me of "Live After Death" tour. But right after Bruce said this he also announced "The Rime... Of The Ancient Marineeeer..." if you read this TruthSurge: please sing this song and Up The Irons ;-) Who's with me on this ?
It’s official: Old Dudes Rule
Peace. JR
Talento
WTF jaw drops..
. the big question. Why are you not singing in a metalband already ?
How is he not singing for Iron Maiden? 👀
My initial thought was "bold move trying to cover flight of Icarus" and then I sat the fuck down. My god man you have an amazing voice.
Jesuschrist, simply incredible.
My mind just got blown. Can’t believe the power in this dudes voice
This is my first time watching video. You're fuckn awesome. Great job!
Welcome to video.
@@jamesragsdale8202 It's a bit sad that it killed the radio star though.
I must admit, when I clicked play I wasn't expecting much but you rocked my socks off. Great cover of a classic tune.
You think that you did a good job?
No you didn't you did an epic job! So much talent!
thx!
Holyshit old man I think you might be my age but you've got some great vocals and iron Maiden is one of my favorite bands God bless
Great comment, Tim Funt!!!! Up the Irons!
You're a genius! How old are you?
@@sebastianfernandez6245 Hey there my fellow metal fan! Thanks for the comment I'm 50 years old.
@@timfunt267 Great man! have you ever recorded an album with your metal covers? i wanna have it!!!!
@@timfunt267 i´m a metal singer too and you are very
inspiring to me. I´m from Argentina.
You are the coolest grandad I've ever seen... Bruce will really appreciate it! Greetings from Moscow, Russia!
That's WTF I'm talking about! 🤘🏼
What makes these enjoyable to listen to. His singing isn't exactly the same as the original. It's not a copy, he just makes it his own, in a very high quality fashion. Bravo, sir, you do a fantastic job.
Gave me chills a time or two. Great job. Its a very difficult song. You are one of the very few to be able to pull it off, let alone attempt it.
George Carlin singing Maiden?😁😁😁
Yes, back from the grave ;-)
Bruce? Holy crap man...I can't stop watching your videos!!! It was a pleasure.
thanks!!!
Goddamn sir, that was spectacular. Massive respect. Simply Awesome cover. Subbed
That was so badass, you can really sing.
Great voice.
Rock on brother.
Your voice is so very powerful !! Blows me away & everyone I share your videos with are loving you too ! 🤟
My god that voice, unreal. 👍
Outstanding performance sir ! Respect from Istanbul.
My favorite Iron Maiden song..I love your cover so much🤘
Greetings from Germany
Wow. Dude, I've watched quite a few of your videos and have to say...you kick all kinds of ass. I get chills with this song. You make me feel like I'm there, rooting for Icarus!
Put a smile on my face. That was major cool. Well done!
Great voice and expression!
Awesome!
You sir are a wizzard. And dude nailed that solo. Well done 🤘👽🤘
Hell yeah!! You nailed this one, too. Fantastic job!!
Bro u actually covered one of my all time favorite metal songs ever made, u did this so much justice
Fuck yeah dude!!! You CRUSHED the vocals AND guitar! You got yourself a new subscriber. That was sweet!!!
Sensacional!
Simplesmente, maravilhoso!
Melhor que Bruce!
Ohoooo lord. My congratulations from Brasil
Loved it,classic maiden track...thanks for sharing
I have watched your videos before and seen 1 or 2 of maiden covers but this is the first time I've commented... iron maiden is my favorite band in every aspect love them dearly, loveeee dave Murray's killer solos, and Bruce's incredible screams and vocal capabilities and man I gotta fucking say it you did this song as well as soo many other songs justice, you are fucking amazing man. Keep up the incredible work!
This does not deserve ANY thumbs down!! This is Awesome, thank you!!
I thought I was going to be disappointed as it was in other Iron Maiden covers. I'm disappointed that I wasn't disappointed. Very good.
Excellent cover! Great song, one of my favorites!!!! Up the irons
Love those cool effects put in. Old man's got power and passion!
So here’s the thing; flight of Icarus is my favourite iron maiden song of all time and it’s also one of the least covered. Then I happen to come across your video, having never heard of you before. To imitate a maiden song is ballsy, but to nail it? Sir, you are fan-fucking-tastic. Subscribed!
Dickinson would be very proud. My fave Maiden song. You never disappoint.
What a performance!!!! Congrats for your vocal application and for the production of this video!!!
You always pick the easy ones, Truth...
WOW! Props on this, man! 3:03 that's one of the reasons why Dickinson was called "Air Raid Siren!"
I never listened to much Maiden. So, I am now getting to appreciate the vocals. They were all really good too. thanks!
That's not the reason why. It'd not take you more than 1 min on Google to find out the reason why he was given that nickname.
@@FoxinTaiwan That`s why he said "one of" ;)
@@FoxinTaiwan
My favorite part is when he said _"one of the reasons"_
Fernando Jara Look at you, hotshot
"Scream for me Long Beach!!!"
HAHAHA Nice. Went to that concert back in the day. Long Beach arena sold out 3 nights straight. Up the Irons.
LB Certified as well
You're amazing my sir! Really captured Bruce's style!
I really loved that freackin' solo though! It was awesome!
Iam a Maiden Fan since 1986 and i prove, this was the best vocal cover i have ever heard! Ask Bruce, if he can today sing these heights.. he dont. Your the Man! Awesome!
man you blow me freaking away every time i hear you sing a song that i know you keep rocking sir just keep rocking until the end of time .... much love from hamilton Ontario canada
That ending “fly as high as the sun” was amazing !
Now we're rockin'! That sounded real good. Love the scream at the end.
thanks!
My whole life has been metal. It entered my blood and soul when I was 13years. Old. I never knew my grandparents they all died before I was born. I 48 years old now. If I had a grandfather I'd wish he was as cool as you are. Your choices in metal are very good. Keep on rocking forever.🤗🙂
God I was not ready. Your voice got me by surprise and shook my soul, brother.
RUclips recommended your channel, so I decided to check it out. Your singing voice is absolutely amazing! As a fan of most of the bans you cover, I lower my head in respect and raise my lighter in support of your incredible talent!! /m\
Damn old man, nice chops. Subscribed
Great cover and you do quilting as I can see hanging in the background!
Sweet
First time watching one of your videos. Not a minute passed and I have already subscribed. Awesome work!
Every video I watch is more and more amazing. This man is talent.
After helping defeat Sauron, Gandalf found a new career singing metal
Nice! I've seen Maiden about two dozen times over the years. That was great!
I went into this with apprehension, as maiden is one of my favorites of all time. I can say you did a good job man, bravo!
This was way too good to not comment. Congratulations, you kick major ass and glad to see you tackle such a hard song. Keep it up!
ty!
Good job man! The scalloped neck is amazing! 👏👏👏

Congratulations sir. This was great! Iron Maiden is my favorite band ever! Iron rocks!!

From NYC....l just loved this. Thanks for sharing your gift 😊
Where have you been? Rockin it out with quilts on the wall. Awesome job.
wow..congrats for the vocals and the guitar solo.. you guys rock! cheers from Brazil!
Now I know why I did not get my Christmas gift last year.
You decided to share this gift with every single one of us, who was blessed to find this video, and find out that Santa is much more than a red suite, long long white hair, and long white beard, like we were told as kids.
As a child I don't ever remember seeing or hear you sing like this on those good old TV shows weeks before Christmas? I think I may have missed something. Better late than never.
Amazing.
God Bless, and Jesus is real.
Time to watch more of your videos.
I am extremely honored to have you acknowledge my comment, even a year latter.
You are an amazing watch.
God bless.
OMG!! U are the best vocalist I have ever heard!! U cover Bruce, Ronnie, etc so perfectly!! It's mind boggling!!

Heeey !! congratulations is truly amazing Thanks for sharing the video let's follow the path of rock!
One of my favorite iron maiden songs done by an awesome musician! Thank you for sharing your voice with us!

When I need extra motivation for a really Hard training session I came back to this amazing video. Congratulations from Brazil man

Literally everything about you is EPIC sir.
That Beard is just Awsomeness.
The singing is just another level, some people would give an arm or leg to sound that good .
Good Job...AWESOME Voice !!! 👍👏👌🤘😎
My favorite part is the good use he put his wife's quilting hobby to. Studio Acoustics!
I was browsing for soundproof material a while ago, and never thought about my mom's quilt collection, she probably doesn't need them all, its like 300 of the fucken' things
Harmonies sound good in chorus with your voice👍
NO WAY!!!! One of my favs and you smashed it.
Thanks Pappy!...You just melted my phone and my face... AGAIN!!!
