Thank you all for watching! 10 years after the first attempt, here's my updated version of BLOOD BROTHERS! If you want to play this, take a look at www.KingOfTheStrings.com for tabs and video lesson, and if you want to get this on CD (or digital) check www.ThomasZwijsen.com You'll also find a version with Blaze Bayley on this channel and on the "Preserved in Time" album. Up The Irons to all Blood Brothers here!
Blood Brothers is an awesome song in every version it is played, and this is no exception. In the future I would love to listen to Lost in a Lost World from the new album (I think the intro and the outro would fit perfectly with a classic guitar); it would be amazing to hear Blaze Bayley's voice on it too!
Being an old school classic era maiden fanatic I never gave the 'reunion era' No prayer for the dying killed my interest in the band but I had 7 classic albums that where in my DNA so you can't complain. Songs that I hated were blood brothers and Fear of the dark... far to musical theatre for me as opposed to the pure metal of the eighties. However, listening to other artists interpretations of these songs especially the finger picking guitar style, the solo piano and violin as well as the full orchestra performances have given me a new appreciation for this era. Senjutsu re sparked me love of the band so I am listening with the later albums with a new vigour. Blood brothers I've come to realise is a beautiful piece of music
Mr. Zwijsen - The first time I heard you play was the video for this song in which Blaze Bayley sang and rode a motorcycle for a rendezvous and a drink. I thought it was a charming video, simple yet powerful at the same time, and that your playing was first rate. I had to write down your last name so as not to forget it by the next morning! I've been a fan of yours ever since (plus you played a big part in my new appreciation of Blaze's time in Maiden and his solo career, so thank you for that!) and seeing this new performance of a favorite song made my day that much better. Thank you for the great music (I own three of your albums; they get played when I need some flamenco metal while I work) and I hope you keep releasing new media for a long time to come. P.S. Love the dogs! They make the videos that much better. Hope Wiki is well and will release some new material soon!
Mr Majestic I am so blown away from the talent you possess As mentioned previously in another of your posts, I never gave acoustic music the respect it deserves, and you Mr Majestic have given my ears the blessing it needed Well Done !!
Dear Thomas, another time, another day, another amazing rendition of one of my favourite Maiden songs! With every revision, the arrangement and delivery of yours is taken to new heights. Thank you for your amazing work, which is faithfully honoring the originals while expanding the possibilities of what can be done with them by a single man, a single guitar and his craft.
Wonderful!!! Absolutely wonderful ‼️💞 Here in Italy 🇮🇹,we miss you (and "my" Blaze Bayley) so much!!! Congrats, dear Thomas. A friendly greeting and a hug!!! 🤗❤️🎶🙋🏻♀️✌🏻💕
Thomas is a legend at this point . following along to all the great music he has produced has been nothing short of a massive pleasure, every single video and song has been awe inspiring and life saving, love every single second! Bravo Thomas we all love you brother!!
This translated so well, even encouraged me to pick up and try. Guess Ill have to buy the tab lol. Electric single string picker trying this did not work out too hot.
Thomas, seriously...do you do anything that isn't amazing 😎👌👏 love this bro and up the irons 😎🤘♥️🔥 you continue to innovate and dominate(your arrangements are masterful)this is now the 3rd version of this I have heard from you...only thing missing here is blaze(I'm sure he would be down 😊👍)all I can say is wow, it's all I can ever say listening to you play. How do I hit like multiple times?
Grandioso. Le das una mistica increíble a un tema ya de por si excelso. Cuando crees que no se puede superar algo muy bueno y llega alguien con mucho talento a demostrar lo contrario. Bendiciones para ti y para todos tus seguidores
Amazing ....simply the Best!!!! Please Thomas could you tell me how the guitar you tuned! Because i try allways in standar tune but the songs don't listening as well. Sorry for my english.
Thomas em 2014 conheci você e o Blaze em Pomerode SC depois disso sempre toco Iron Maiden nas suas versões. Continue nos dando a graça de seus dedilhados 🙏🏻 Queria ter a oportunidade de aprender com um gigante e meu grande ídolo. Saudações!

Wow, that is gorgeous. Maybe your best ever Maiden interpretation. Bravo.
He written this in 2014 I believe. There’s another video.
Я не могу даже представить, сколько труда вложено, что бы так непринужденно играть. Ваша игра делает меня счастливым)

I'm going to need more than the Tab to play what you just played. A lot more. That was fantastic.
Классный кавер. Молодец.
Very nice, i had to watch it again just now...
this one would have been good to have the violinist play along!
got carried away while listening this interpretation, so nice
Спасибо. Это просто шедевр.🤘 Heavy Metal рулит.
Переложения Мейденов для акустики у Томаса всегда шедевральны!
Amazing as always. Your dogs are beautiful !!
Beautiful scenery, beautiful well behaved dogs and beautiful song, what more could a person ask for?
HA gayyyyy
