Best live perfomance from the best band ever walked at earth . period.

A band that sounds much better live even though their studio albums sound magic... a rare quality in musicians nowadays. Up the Irons forever ❤️

Iron Maiden's guitarists were great at harmonizing together. One would play a low scale and the other would play the higher notes.

I listened to this song a few hundred times and it still gives me goosebumps.

I don't always listen to Hallowed Be Thy Name live, but when I do, so do my neighbors

They're on tour... again.... still.... and their shows are still high energy and a killer show!! See if they're playing near you, maybe go and record your reaction of the concert immediately afterwards. Idea

Hey guys, just wanted to say that you are my new favorite reactors! I watch about 5 or 6 regularly and the fact that I'm so old and have experienced all these bands live and watching you youngsters discover them and appreciate the talent they have just make me so happy! Thank you for your honest and opened minded attitude to toward old school metal, rock, and blues! That's the solid foundation that all things now are built on, but I do have to say that sometimes the foundation is better than what's built on top nowadays! Good luck to you!

Saw them in Newcastle City Hall in 1983, they were very good, we was in the balcony front and centre and me mate made a paper plane out of a flier we was given and it drifted across the whole of the stalls and landed right in the middle of the stage, great times

This song is so iconic !

This was recorded at Hammersmith in London in March 1982 as part of the Beast on the Road Tour days before the album (Number of the Beast) was officially released. This was one of the new album tracks and was only recorded in January/February. Unless anyone in the audience had been to a previous show on this tour (it started late Feb), it was the first time they'd have heard this song. If you notice at the beginning, you can see Bruce signal to the monitor engineer at the side of the stage to turn up his vocals. Probably the best live version of this track ever recorded IMO.

One of the best bands ever

Try to picture this as a song from the warm-up band, because that's what Iron Maiden was in the States when this was first performed in 1982. Had the good fortune of seeing it in Worcester and New Haven. To say they blew Priest out of the building those nights would be an understatement. Their rapid ascension started right about this time.

Iron Maiden live is still AMAZING!!! Check out their tour info, and go see them live. You WILL be impressed!!!

Up the Irons, you two. *UP THE IRONS!* 🔥🔥🤘

I had the opportunity to see them on this concert tour,andTHEY Completely Blew my Mind!!!🤯

One of the great live performances. Up the Maidens 🤘

Everyone talk about Bruce’s vocals, and rightly so, but until you see him running from one end of the stage to the other, REPEATEDLY, while carrying a massive Union Jack and still hitting every note,that hammers it home

I saw this Tour, and saw them 6 times since including September '22. They are all in their mid-60"s now and have the same energy.

Sat 4th row in 1986. Never forget it.

Go see them live, they're still performing, but pushing 70, so won't be around for long, catch them on their latest tour The Future Past Tour. You won't regret it. Great reaction! 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻#UpTheIrons

I really think you guys should check out their performance of this from 2015 in Toronto. Its like 35 years after this and it is obvious they have not slowed down but show even more energy as they age! I saw them in 2019 in Tacoma Washington and they still put on a hell of a show. Up the Irons!

It took a while for your feet to touch the ground after seeing Iron Maiden live during this era.

The best (live;) BAND in the world!!! Up the mighty Irons🤘🤘🤘🤘

Hello, my name is Brian from White Bear Lake, Minnesota. Loved the reaction to 'Hallowed Be Thy Name', it is my favorite video and Bruce Dickinson is my all time favorite singer. That video in my opinion is why i think every other rock singer secretly wishes that they could sing like Bruce...Just Say'in !!! Anyways, another great Bruce Dickinson song in which he sings his as* off is the song 'Rime of the Ancient Mariner'. It was written about the old poem from the 1700's by 'Samuel Taylor Colleridge' called 'Rime of the Ancient Mariner'. It is the 2nd best live video next to 'Hallowed Be Thy Name'. You can really hear Bruce's opera like voice in this song. Except this time just watch the video first not the studio version. Pretty much every Iron Maiden song with the exception of a few songs are about some sort of important event that has happened in history, so it is like having a little history lesson in almost every song. So check it out. I promise it will be your second favorite video/song. But you might want to follow along with the lyrics because he sings the song kind of fast. Thank You, ~Brian~ White Bear Lake, Minnesota🤘🤘 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fr6Djc6QqtaomaM.html&feature=share

Once you hear Iron Maiden live you can't unhear them 😁🎼🎵🎵🎶🎶❤️

I saw them on this tour in 1982 The Beast on the Road Tour at MSG when they opened up for Judas Priest. See them live and you wont be disappointed.

You guys are fast we become in my favorite channel. You play my favorite bands and give great reactions and insight thanks very much. And you see Bruce is one of the consummate metal voices in history. His voice and screams are legendary. Keep up the good work my friends.

Its the best SELECTION OF THIS SONG....The sound is awesome

These guys, are masters at their craft !

greetings and love from Köln/Cologne, Germany....wow, thank you guys for keeping your promise of watching the live performence after youve done the studio version...you were so right to do this in order to enjoy and appreciat this song with them on stage...absolute amazing reaction, one of my three favorites actually, great job...I (51years) am a maiden maniac since 1985 and so happy to be able to see reactions like yours...hope you try some more Maiden....thanx again and stay safe, you beautyful people......PEACE & UP THE IRONS

They have a live recording of this song like 25yrs newer that is also badass. It has a ton of views. At the beginning of the vid they show the big Iron Maiden commercial airliner into a show. He's the pilot they also show. The vid is also good cuz it shows how awesome they are even decades after this great performance. Easy to see why their crowds had fans ranging in age from 18 to 50 yrs old. Few groups have stayed popular spanning decades recording and touring.

Bruce Dickinson has the best metal voice ever. This is epic . 👍👍👍🇸🇪😎💕

Everybody should experience an Iron Maiden live show. You're missing out if you don't.

The word that comes to mind when i hear Maiden guitars is: EPIC

Fear of the dark at rio is mesmerizing because of the crowd engagement and dance of the dead is just the whole band showing iff

This song was so much fun to play when I was 17 years old. Our bassist was huge Iron Maiden/Steve Harris fan, and sounded just like him. Unfortunately we didn't have singer who could have sang this song (or any songs at decent level 🤣). The thing with maiden is, that they have pretty easy songs for guitarists, but they have awesome feeling and energy, so they are very much fun to play.

I went to this tour. Day on the Green. Oakland, Ca July 1982

It's still great to see them live.

Saw them in 1983 in Seattle. I was only fifteen at the time and it was my first concert.

Iron Maiden is the meaning stick for how any band,especially heavy metal or rock and roll ought to sound live. Simply one of the greatest bands ever,period.

Dam... good job Guys !!! In 1982 (i was 17 YO) by this album, i was mindblowing by Steve Harris Bassist Style, and i decide to play Bass Guitar... and since 41 years, i never stopped to play... Thx so much about your funny Reaction Salute from France Dears...

Hammersmith was the show i was there 😀

Watch them now, even more energy. Thay are incredible.

I just love how he keeps asking for the sound engineer to increase the mic volume so many times.

Nice reaction to the greatest band. They have over 200 songs in there catalog, including B-sides collection. Fear of the Dark live should be next, from Rock in Rio

Love that thing clive does with the sticks simultaneously as hitting the drums

One of the GREATEST Rock bands ever ! Bruce Dickinson was untouchable back in the day. You guys missed the Greatest Rock generation ever! So much passion in what we did. Unfortunately it's gone away.

Legendary and iconic- one of the greatest metal bands of all-time that influenced so many others after them. Great writing, storytelling, arrangements, and one of the greatest metal voices ever.

This video was done before Nicko McBrain became the drummer for Maiden and Clive Burr was still the drummer, RIP Clive 🙏. Another great Maiden song with Clive on the drum kit is Run To The Hills. 👍✌️

You should check out some of their more recent concerts. Somehow they have more energy as they age. Up the Irons!

im loving your musical trip

You know...Awesome...When you guys did Nightwish's Ghost Love Score and had the question about the symbolism behind the Bullhead, apart from every metalhead's immediate thoughts of Ronnie James Dio and the Malocchio ward, I personally immediately thought back to a conversation I had with my strict Irish Catholic mother in the mid-1980s about heavy metal music, during which she called it “devil music.” When you asked about possible satanic symbolism related to the bullhead, I immediately thought of this song because Hallowed Be Thy Name is the song I used to counter my mother's belief that Metal was all about the devil. You can Understand why she thought that way, especially as a late middle-aged mom in the 80s. I mean, look at the imagery Iron Maiden themselves were using. No one ever said prejudice always comes without reason. But my mother would listen to an argument, so I told her about the song and walked her through the lyrics. Hallowed Be Thy Name starts slow and mournful with an unnamed convict in his cell facing the last day of his life, as he’s scheduled to be hanged today: I'm waiting in my cold cell when the bell begins to chime Reflecting on my past life and it doesn't have much time 'Cause at 5 o'clock, they take me to the Gallows Pole The sands of time for me are running low Running low, yeah! The song picks up pace as the priest arrives to administer last rights, and a side-by-side journey begins for the condemned - on one side his physical walk to the courtyard to face the hangman, and on the other a spiritual journey from terror to anger to serenity to acceptance and finally - joy. In that second journey, especially in its conclusion, the “devil music” assumption falls apart. It begins as the priest arrives, and the music picks up in force: When the priest comes to read me the last rites Take a look through the bars at the last sights Of a world that has gone very wrong for me Can it be that there's some sort of error? Hard to stop the surmounting terror Is it really the end, not some crazy dream? As the Convict tells us what he’s thinking, the music becomes an inexorable march. The Convict’s terror comes through in denial, but the beginning of peace begins to creep in as he professes his faith Somebody, please tell me that I'm dreaming It's not easy to stop from screaming The words escape me when I try to speak Tears flow, but why am I crying? After all, I'm not afraid of dying Don't I believe that there never is an end? He’s not there yet. He still has some anger and frustration to work out: As the guards march me out to the courtyard Somebody cries from a cell, "God be with you" If there's a God, why has he let me go? The music continues its forced march forward as the Convict examines his life and begins to arrive at serenity: As I walk, my life drifts before me Though the end is near, I'm not sorry Catch my soul; it's willing to fly away From there, his faith takes over, and he feels genuinely prepared. His early declaration that he’s not afraid is given reason and conviction: Mark my words; believe my soul lives on Don't worry now that I have gone I've gone beyond to seek the truth When you know that your time is close at hand Maybe then you'll begin to understand Life down here is just a strange illusion The Music continues its seemingly unstoppable pace, but as the song progresses, you can hear it become more and more uplifting; by the end, it wouldn't sound out of place in the middle of a Tchaikovsky symphony carried by violins and cellos rather than electric guitars. By the time the music’s physical march leads the Convict into the courtyard and up the steps to the gallows, he’s no longer afraid, and he’s gone beyond serenity into the realm of true joy. His voice is raised in ecstasy as he joyfully begins to sing the only thing on his mind at the top of his lungs - The Lord’s Prayer: Yeah-yeah-yeah! Hallowed be thy name!! Yeah-yeah-yeah! Hallowed by thy name!! The music takes you through to the end, and you know it’s the end, at least of the story, But by the end of it, you can’t come away feeling like it’s anything but a hymn. My mother agreed. That preconceived notion gave way to what prejudice always has to give way to - the individual example which breaks apart the perception of the absolute. She didn’t suddenly turn into a raving metalhead. But she did come away with a different point of view. I've always appreciated Iron Maiden, and especially this song for helping her see that.

They are still touring and better than ever.

Great job. Now traditionally it s time for Fear of the dark live in rock n rio

Hell yeah! 🤘Up the Irons!🤘

Yes, you guys did the best live version of the song. You notice Bruce's finger pointing up in the beginning telling the sound guy to turn up his vocals in the mix? It's crazy that I was listening this over 40 years ago. Others to check out: Phantom of the Opera (Live at the Rainbow 1980 - with first singer Paul DiAnno Rime of the Ancient Mariner Flight 666 DVD Fear of the Dark (Rock in Rio 2001) Alexander the Great w/lyrics Flight of Icarus (Official video) The Clansman - (Rock In Rio 2001) Dance Of Death - En Vivo!

Bruce is considered a Polymath someone who is successful at multiple things at the same time like a great heavy metal singer, Olympic caliber fencer, Airline Captain, author of several books, on the teaching circuit , runs a cargo plane company, and owner of Trooper beer and other alcohol beverages.

Love that you got around to the live version the energy is amazing! Plenty more Iron Maiden songs that are so iconic. Also if you never seen Randy rhoads play you need to check out a live version of ozzy osbornes mr crowley that dude died way before his time

So Top, the basse is killing it!!! 💪

If you listen to the beginning and watch the time when he starts that long note, he holds it for about 15 sec. He tank a breath and hols the next one for about 10 sec (including the yeah). He has such awesome control

This is from the Hammersmith Odeon in London - I saw them for the second time a few days before this when they played in Bristol in the UK 🤘

My son and I went to see Maiden in the week that Bruce turned 60. He's still the energizer bunny

Right after the song ended I saw Randy Rhodes pop up on the screen for a second. He was the guitarist for Ozzy. He is considered by many to be one of the greatest of all time. I would love to see your reaction to Mr Crowley. I know you do the studio first which you can hear how good he was. When you do the live performance you will hear and see how great he was 😊

These guys are fire in the studio but Iron maiden are one of those rare bands that are even better live!!! The skill & energy levels shown by these guys put 99% of other bands to shame!

I was there.. it was awesome 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘😁

My favorite version of this band. RIP Clive.

Maiden are masters of the craft of Metal. Bruce has insane pipes. He's a diminutive man, but goddamn, he can pack a vocal PUNCH.

Yes!!! Up the Irons!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Bruce was also in UK Olympic Fencing team.

do the live after death 1985 concert...one of the best shows ever

they still have this energy, in fact, Bruce runs around even more if anything

I saw them during this tour I was 15, New Haven Connecticut they opened up for Judas Priest

You picked the right one 😊

Now you need to check out Rime of the Ancient Mariner - live from 1985 ! It is epic and brilliant. xx

Bruce is on top of everything else also a bronze medalist Olympian. In the sport of fencing . He's quite the achiever.

The Greatest Live Performance Of This Song From Maiden The Greatest Metal Band In The World With The Greatest Frontman Bruce Dickinson - Killed This Performance.

Shreding ! !!

le meilleur groupe de heavy metal de tous les temps !

Next Fear of the Dark in Rio live

"Children of the Damned" from this same concert is so good

Im 58, saw this tour in 1982, with Judas Priest. This , by many many fans feel this is the best lineup. This was Bruce's debut, The Number of the beast. Now go back and check out " Killers" with the original vocalist Paul DiAnno. 🤘🇬🇧

I love watching Bruce Dickinson perform 🤘🤘🤘🎸🎸🎸 great reaction 😊

I know your policy is to listen to the studio version first, and that's a great way to do it. Having sad that through the policy out the window with Maiden. They are great live. UP THE IRONS!!!

I saw them do this tour Glasgow Apollo

SICK!!!!!

2023 play Iron Maiden at the Wacken Open Air and this Song is for more than 40 years in the Liveset , all Member are older than 62 years

You should listen to The Red and Black 2015 live performance. About 6 minutes of guitar solos. Iron Maiden was insanely amazing.

There are so many reasons why these guys are a Supergroup

I was 20 years young during this tour was going on seen Iron Maiden 2 time sound better live in their 70's still really incredible musicians live till day I die UP THE IRONS forever

That drummer, Clive Burr was replaced by the current drummer, Nicko McBrain in 1982. He continued to play drums until 2013. Clive was diagnosed with MS in late 90's. Clive died from complications of MS in 2013. Now, you reacted to young version of Iron Maiden. It is time for both of you need to react IM from newer tours from Flight 666 to Legacy of the Beast. By the way, I don't know Bruce kept his flight status updated because Bruce is also a licensed airline pilot who flies band plus equipment on either Boeing customed 747 or 757 nicknamed "Edd Force One" when Iron Maiden do their world tours.

THE GREATEST BAND IN HISTORY

Iron Maiden- " The rime of the ancient mariner " live after death

I saw them live over 40 years ago in Brisbane Australia 🇦🇺 😳 was a great time.

Hey guys, you still have a huge whole in your reaction adventure. ABBA This group is one of the top selling band world wide. Especially when you realize that although they have far fewer albums than other top sellers they rank in the top 5 world wide album sales. Start with Waterloo, their first international hit.

Good reaction guys like how u both appreciate vocals and music keep up the good work UP THE IRONS!! By the way at the end of ur video u mention how the crowd gets involved if u like that thing u gotta check out Fear Of The Dark live from Rio the crowd sound as good as Bruce lol….. 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

❤❤❤ THIS IS THE CORRECT CONCERT! Also Bruce is a cancer survivor 🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾 Up the irons!!!

saw them in Ottawa last year and they sounded just the same.

Also a member of the GB team for the Olympics fencing team hence his agility on stage which is amazing....watch wicker man live.

God, I miss the 80’s!

Is from the Odeon theater in London
