His career of nice tunes is so plural that is hard to pick out one or two songs as the best. Here it is a real great artist of the showbizz that we will miss a lot when he is gone. We headbangers, course!
man... This song is from Bruce's last solo album before he re-joined Maiden... he left maiden in 1993, back in 1999, he wouldn't know if he would be back to Maiden... And the guitarrist IS Adrian Smith... he joined Bruce in 1997 and made 2 albums together, in 1999 they were back to Maiden, also together... Bruce once said that he wouldn't get back to Maiden if Adrian wasn't there... For that and so many reasons that Adrian is my mentor...
@arkansasbean There are several passages from the lyrics that seem culled directly from the books... but I won't give anything away if you're thinking of reading them. Only thing is this song was written before all seven books were complete, so whatever inspiration the books provided, it had to come from books one through four.
Bruce was and is the Best singer when it comes to Maiden, Solo even better. Paul Di'anno was brilliant in his own way, the first two albums had a different sound compared to NOTB Onward. Blaze could sing, he just couldn't hit those high notes and he did have vocal problems, especially when it came to live performances but some of Maiden's greats come from the underrated Blaze and his contributions. I still think Bruce beats them all though!
Stop talking about small details which don't have much importance.... If He hear wrathchild intro when he listen this song, let him hear it!! Enjoy the music!!! Bruce Dickinson rules!!
@arkansasbean Read Stephen King's "The Dark Tower" series. I'm utterly convinced those books were the Bruce's inspiration for these lyrics. How many other Dickinson and Maiden songs have been inspired by literature?

He is an amazing singer and this song is one of the heaviest and most intense metal songs EVER! Long live Bruce Bruce and Maiden!
MR. ADRIAN SMITH. The man who create the best classics of the BEAST. Powerslave and Somewhere in Time. Bruce + Adrian = amazing songs.
Brings me so much memories, buying my first guitar, the 6th grade...
One of the best song and the best clip ever made!
Adrian Smith and Bruce Dickinson rock! Maiden is my favorite band and I love all of Bruce's solo stuff.
This is one of my favourite songs of all time.
There is a reason my son is named Bruce =]
This is my Favorite song from Bruce...

Bruce . The one and only !

Starting with the solo at 3:00 and especially at 3:19, it is metal greatness!! It gives me chills!!

for me these song and the Man Of Sorrows is the best solo Bruce's music.But he has the best vocals of the world.Fusion it's right
Maidenfans are all waiting for Bruce's new album
the bass intro sounds like wrathchild's intro...
AWESOME SONG!

Good point out, I never thought of wrathchild when I heard this
wratchild xDD !!

Thanx dude
i really love this song it really stands on its own but it reminds me of wrathchild haha

Bass melody at start is almoust like in Wrathchild.
The bassline to this song vaguely reminds me of the one in Wrathchild. Both very good songs, by the way.
A deep song
@ummagumma84 actually the inspiration behind the whole album is the work of William Blake, hence the artwork.
This is way better than what maiden was doing at the time, I still like Virtual XI thou.
that intro is almost the same as the intro of wrathchild, when i heard the intro i was like WTF that's wrathchild. :p
love this song bruce is are fucken legend up the fucken irons...................
search for "Bruce Dickinson - The Tower (1998)" it has a far better audio quality!
Watch time 1:26...totally reminds me of the cover art to Piece of Mind...Up the Irons!!!
Haha, that doll is freakin funny, raising its eyebrows! =P .. Needless to say, but Bruce is G*D
que buen sonido le saca a la viola ese loko y bue ni hablar del canto de dickinson
yeah
Killer tune. The only thing missing is Eddie (and fortunately, the spandex).
i like 'the fool'
lol. what's edison doing there? wrong album. XD
love the music video. strait jacket memories, bruce?
bruce is god!
bruce is awesome for letting people hang him upside-down in a strait-jacket
yeah :P
@husqvarnakias Waaaay more than that, bro... waaaaay more! :D
Let the fool decide :D
Yeah very dioish indeed ( or dioesque?) vid.
anyhow a total rockin' song...
so fucking good!!!!!!!
the beginning kinda reminded me of wrathchild lol :P
Let the fool decide.
i was goin to post that XD..
Bruce has a thing for straitjackets
bruce the beast dickinson

xD
Dickinsonism is my new religion.
can't we find this at a better quality???

3:33 el baile de adrian me mata...jaja
I love Bruce and Maiden. But this music sounds a lot like Wratchild for me. The groove of the frist seconds, and the Adrian's verse riff.
1:23 Puppet ownage!
Hwta an awsome song, the begining it sounds like wratchild: iron maiden,
UP THE IRONS
UP THE BRUCE
UP THE ADRIAN!
Stop talking about small details which don't have much importance....
If He hear wrathchild intro when he listen this song, let him hear it!!
Enjoy the music!!!
Bruce Dickinson rules!!
the start of this song has an uncanny resemblance to wrathchild (just the first 8 seconds)
@tameku no madona hehe
el ke toka la guitarra es adrian smith cierto?
The intro reminds me of Wrathchild a bit
that is because this is based on the life and rituals of allastair crowley, the wickedest man in the world
Bruce and adrian are SOO cute but BRUCE IS HOT!!!
Yeah, it sounds a lot like wrathchild. The guitar too.
Up the irons, mother fuckers!
Heavy fucking metal! \m/
Who plays the guitar?
@davemurray16 First, nice name, love him :).. Allmost
Pleased he decided to hang up his spandex tights back in the eighties.
Real word never was on the chemical wedding album. Atleast at the first version.
Adrian's solo's inspired by Michael Schenker
Its very similar NO LIES from Tatooed Milionaire.
Some of Maiden's best songs were recorded without Bruce on vocals.
Great fuckin' song
By who exactly?
UP THE BRUCE
and the irons
@arkansasbean
Read Stephen King's "The Dark Tower" series. I'm utterly convinced those books were the Bruce's inspiration for these lyrics. How many other Dickinson and Maiden songs have been inspired by literature?
@Aarisure me too. LOL
