Conquissstador my respects to, and he really did immortalize it.....

For sure!

@Anonymous Alcoholic bruce is amazing at the high...

Blaze was a descent enough singer, he was good on a few songs. But no Bruce

Epic song! 🤘🏼🤘🏼

+MAD中毒222 Agreed!

+MAD中毒222 Childhood's End

MAD中毒222 lightning strikes twice. not only is it a great song but in my opinion it has the best guitar solos of any Maiden song.

Holy smoke, No prayer for the dying, From here to eternity, Be quick or be dead, Wasting love, Lord of the flies, Fortunes of War, Sign of the cross, Man on the edge, Futureal, The clansman, The educated fool are all 90's tracks that should be played live again. They should also play some great tracks they never even played live before such as Flash of the blade, Deja vu, Fates warning, Childhood's end, Judgement of heaven, Como estais amigos, The thin line between love and hate, Age of innocence, Face in the sand, Gates of tomorrow, The man who would be king and Isle of Avalon. Such a shame these great tracks have never been played live.

Would love to hear Bruce tackle Fortunes of War. My favorite song from the Blaze era.

Very sad how Ripper was ignored out of the legacy.

Also, when Adrian came back, they kept Janick Gers and have 3 absolutely amazing guitarists. SOOOO much respect for that. I swear have seen vids where Blaze did a few shows with Bruce. I know they all left on good terms. And yeah, I dunno what happened with Ripper being forgotten.

Bruce has said in interviews that he enjoys singing songs from the Blaze era. He likes those songs and the band enjoys playing them, unlike Rob Halford and Judas Priest who refuse to play any songs from the Ripper era.

@@tjs19762000 it's not exactly Halford, who already stated that would love to sing songs from Tim Ripper's era... I think the problem is the other ones from the band

Sabbath too they refuse to play Tony Martin era

People is like women it is impossible to understand

For me like this is very epic

I didn't listen to the Blaze era but Maiden isn't Maiden without Bruce. But I have to say I heard him in concert and the voice is 60% gone now.

Yes, love the way he did that!!

They modulated the whole song to adjust it to Bruce's range, a favour they wouldn't do to Blaze with the Bruce era songs.

@@BarelloSmith yup

@@BarelloSmith At the time, Harris Said Maiden fans knows their sound and If they downtune everything would've been even worse..but for Bruce was not a problem..Way to go, Arry..

I don't really understand the love for Bruce. His voice sounds strained and unpleasant. I've never heard an Opera trained singer who seems to be struggling so much...but that's obviously just his voice. Maiden would be better with many other singers.

yeahhhh

YEAH! The bass and power of Blaze’s voice combined with the air raid siren vocals of Bruce would make for a fantastic combination

but why, Bruce is more than enough and is better than Blaze in every aspect, he owns the song. I would rather have the best tracks of The X Factor re-recorded by Bruce and pretend Blaze never happenend.

Onlus Bruce....

@@juansalas2882 Nah

Well said!

Indeed. A great album with a majestic atmosphere.

I think both bailey's albums were good, but only got 4-5 tracks that were of Maiden standard. Similar ro No Prayer for a Dying, which in my eyes remain their worst album. Just behind VirtualXI ( yes i do prefer it to No prayer ) Xfactor got a lot of heat for bringing a different sound, but i think it is a far better album then Fear of the dark.

@@DownMemoryLaneParis Agreed. Much better.

ahha, bruce, give it up already, you sound like a girl, you cant change that :P

actually this song is still in standard tune they reversed the keys instead of starting in the key of e like the blaze version they started in the key blaze sang in then went to eye as for anyone still debating Bruce versus blaze I am sorry Bruce kills it on this song he opened up the ranges and made it sound more maiden like as for the comment about Bruce not being able to sing it in blazes key wrong again Bruce could do it but the vocals would sound too high if anything Steve and janick altered the keys so blaze could sing where this version with Bruce was the original arrangement of the song and was probably left over from the fear of the dark sessions as for brave New world their are four tracks left over from vertiul x 1 the mercenary dream of mirrors blood brothers the nomad so are we going to say blaze would have sounded better you guys are out of your mind

Dan Horvat guitars are not detuned to d still in standard tune I play guitar keys are reversed to e minor instead of g major it is possible to transpose without detuning the crap out of everything and this song was written during the fear of the dark sessions

Bruce kills it on this song? I hugely disagree, bruce has a tendency to over theatricize songs, this is the perfect example. I remember seeing examples of bruce trying to do dianno's work, and he struggles on any of those songs where he needs to put some nitty gritty into his voice, he just doesnt have that sound, hes more of a schooled a singer (textbook).

Gabriel Stern somebody’s actually making sense in the comments ! Can you imagine Blaze singing Nomad Mercenary or Bloodbrothers ? Eewwww

EDDIE rules! Up the Irons!

but I thought we have to hate one? :)

8o86 nah

***** de nada, e a gente vai fazer um curso em contato com o

only Bruce

Don’t forget the sideburns.

Exactly!

Meh... gimmie Blaze

Comparto plenamente!

Né mano, cantou uma oitava acima, humilhou demais

po q foda, nao sabia que isso era um livro, vou pesquisar. estou terminando de ler Holy smoke, Maiden na década de 90. Conta toda a historia dessa epoca, a mudança de vocal, os cds, o autor comenta detalhadamente sobre as musicas, produção etc etc. voce baixa totalmente a guarda e passa a ter outra visão sobre Blaze vs Bruce. X factor é um ótimo cd, o Blaze fez um ótimo trabalho dentro do q ele é como artista e o maiden fez tb o melhor q pode dadas as circunstancias. Mas eu ainda n tinha escutado o bruce cantando essa. Apesar do maiden ter composto as musicas junto com o Blaze e ser mais fiel ao vocal dele, o Bruce é um monstro mesmo. Se voce escuta a original parece outra banda, escutando o Bruce vc ve a diferença de vibe, nem parece q foi produzida com o Blaze.

@@kahapora1665 lê o livro que a música se torna 10x melhor, com muito mais significado. Eu já amava a música, agora acho uma obra prima.

👍❤

Buah, es que son, no se, no hay palabras. Maiden es eso Maiden se sale de toda escala.

Up the irons

Yeah, Rammstein did the same thing with Rammstein Paris. So stupid

Rush in Rio. Great sound but unwatchable

You know its bad when the dvd starts with a seizure warning

2022 Bruce los lleva a otra dimensión !!!!

Maidenize666 well janick sucked but adrian played the song really awesome.

Fuck yeah

Maidenize666 fuck yeaj

Maidenize666 fuck yeahhj

Maidenize666 fuck yeahhhh

even if you prefer his voice overall you have to admit Blaze sings this song better. His voice is so fucking powerful, especially his performance for lord of the flies in the tour that would not die gig

Justin Rudolf I´m not talking about replace Bruce, not at all, but for the rest of your comment, have you looked at Iron Maidens offical video, with Blaze ? That one is a total blast !!!

Anderson mendonça então ele faz o original parecer cover?

Acho que foi isso que ele quis dizer. Parece que a versão original é do Bruce (que fez o cover) e o cover do Blaze (que fez o original).

Com blaze e bem melhor ,pois a música foi feita para voz dele

Песня с альбома 95 года. 98 это Виртуал 11.

@@sergn3114 так точно, ошибся)

totally agree

I was thinking the same, I LOVE Bruce's voice but this bland-depressed style is much more suited for Blaze's timbre. There's a lot more colour and depth in Bruce's voice imo. That's not to say Blaze's is bad, on the contrary - it only goes to show how much it matters who sings which song.

That's because you are very used to Blaze singing it that you automatically link the song to him. If it was Bruce the one that started to sing it from the start people would be saying the reverse, how Blaze doesn't fit the song.

@@okagron still doesnt change the fact blaze fits better. the only time i said "wow" was clansman (rio 2001). Bruce was on par with blaze if not better.

Exceto Man on the Edge, que encaixou perfeitamente na voz do Bruce.

No la canta mal Bruce pero hay diferencia y mucha en la entonación agudos buf mucha

concordo q combina mais com o Blaze, mas na voz do Dickinson ficou bom também, tem outra característica e cai bem, só que do jeito do Dickinson

Agreed!

Exatamente, deixou a música muito mais empolgante subindo uma oitava, tem gente que ainda fala que o Blaze é melhor

George Vrachliotis then why does blaze's version sound better

X Factor with Bruce would have been epic!

George Vrachliotis I don´t agree, maybe they were written for him, but in compairising this version is lame

False.

FAKE.

kanzerveruskan I completely agree, Blaze owns it !!!!

Sounds a bit like a different song when Bruce sings it. Dont get me wrong, i dig it completely. To be honest, most of the songs Bruce sings from the Blaze era sound better with him. The only song Blaze edges Bruce with is Afraid to Shoot Strangers.

pesima version sin carisma y feeling, no le sale como a Blaze.

@@DeathAndHate sin carisma y feeling??? Jajajajajaja!!!!

@@mauriciomariojouls5905 ni siquiera llega al nivel que tenia Blaze en ese tema, al igual que con los temas de Paul no le da pa Bruce, cada epoca a su cantantes que corresponde, fin.

@@DeathAndHate 🤭

Así es !!!!!!

***** I totally agree with you. X factor it's a great album and Blaze vocals in those songs sounds absolutely fantastic. One of my Maiden favourite albums without doubt. The Chemical Wedding great album too.

***** I disagree, Virtual XI was a great album imo

I agree. blaze sings this better as it was written more with his voice in mind

Craig Lueschow To me the singer is Bruce, but this particular song, no, I prefer Blaze, his powerful, deeper voice actually gives the lyrics a totally different mening..

agreed!

I agree 100& man \m/!!

CeltisManOne 1.0 you forgot one thing ;) this is fucking 2006 tour :) for this song you need to back bruce from Long beach arena :)

+tornike imedadze If we could bring bruce back to his voice in the 1980's, this song would be a classic

think it was 2003. 2006 was the matter of life and death tour

Conserteza! concordo com você!👍

@@juanpablocasillas3906 A Mi también me gusta el virtual xi

En esta cancion bruce no solo mejora la cancion, sino que tambien lo humilla en la ultima parte cuando sube los tonos, lo deja por el piso.

okay thats your opinion i thik OWNS this song Blaze just dosint fit in Maiden

First of all: there is no sense possible in a sentence that features "Bruce's voice is too weak". Sorry pal. You can prefer the original. Fair enough. But... in this version Bruce's voice lacks strength?????? The attack when he climbs 1 octave... the utterly demonic low notes on the verses, the contrast in the bridge.... and the "oh oh oh" part... Blaze is simply humming with blank spaces in between the verses while this guy FILLS the room without gaps. I repeat. if you prefer Blaze that's ok to me. But stating he nails it better than Bruce? Come On... I'll give you an example: I'm a huge Sabbath fan. My favourite era are by far the 70's and my favourite Sabbath singer is Osbourne. But I would have to go completly insane to state that Dio was a worst vocalist and sang the 70's songs worst than Ozzy. Dio was better BY FAR in all aspects. As Bruce is better than Blaze. Nevertheless I do prefer Ozzy's to Dio wich is something COMPLETlY different than saying he´s a better vocalist or that he sings Ozzy's Sabbath songs better (wich is pure nonsense). Same applies to Bruce and Blaze. No hating here: just pure technical vocal facts.

+Edson rodolfo de andrade Andrade A canção foi escrita no tom de voz do Blaze, naturalmente , a gravação original ficou melhor. Talvez, se alterassem o tom, ou se colocassem outros arranjos, talvez....

acho quem nem o bruce e nem o blaze cantam as musicas que não foram gravadas por eles melhor que o outro, the x factor e virtual é para o blaze e o restante é para o bruce, e assim ficam perfeitas.

+Edson rodolfo de andrade Andrade Concordo com vc... com algumas raras exceções como afraid to shoot strangers gravada pelo Bruce mas ficou melhor na voz grave do Blaze e clansman, gravada pelo Blaze e melhor na voz do Bruce

afraid to shoot strangers com blaze ficou animal mesmo, ainda prefiro the clasman com blaze, principalmente a parte lenta da musica, blaze deixa ela mais dark com sua voz mais grave, com bruce tbm fica muito boa, opinião minha, mas gosto muito destes dois vocalistas, em 1998 fui no show do iron com blaze no vocal e gostei muito, tenho toda discografia tanto do blaze quanto do bruce, acho o the x factor com blaze muito foda, e os discos piece of mind, the number, seventh son e powerslave com bruce simplesmente de outro planeta, e viva o iron, o bruce e o blaze, vida longa a eles para nossa alegria.

Fuck Blaze, he SUCKS !
