This is from their 3rd album, The Number of the Beast, which was the first one with Bruce Dickenson on vocals. He's widely considered one of the best rock vocalists and bass player Steve Harris is definitely considered one of the best bassists. I personally consider this album one of the greatest in hard rock/heavy metal history. Other great songs from this are "22 Acacia Avenue", "The Number of the Beast", and "Hallowed Be Thy Name".

I've been a Metalhead since '98. This genre of music is life saving, much like Punk. The reason being, for me at least, is it gives me a community. A family of my choosing. Lots of young adults have issues with society, and even their family life can be hard on them. This music gives them an outlet for all that pent up rage, anger, frustration and feelings of loneliness. Lynyrd Skynyrd is Southern Rock, but they're revered by Metalheads, that's why it has so many views. Seeing people first discovering this music brings us so much joy. People from outside our scene are paying attention to, and enjoying, the music of our lives. It's one of the best feelings in the world. When I go to a show, I don't see a bunch of scary individuals. I see brothers and sisters in metal, all there for the same reason: to enjoy the music, camaraderie, meet new/say hi friends and get that sense of family. So, that being said, welcome to the Metal community. It's a great place, even if some of us look and act scary at times. In reality, you'll won't find a bigger bunch of softies. Sure, we like screamy music, but we're also very into helping others and dealing with issues that affect us all, like mental health. There's a lot of that in the scene as well. Never be afraid to cry! And, if you need a hug, that huge burley guy in the corner gives the best bear hugs around.

Where to begin... Most importantly, Steve Harris is the Bassist and founding member... and also the primary writer. The band were formed in 1975, London, England. They have remained intact since 1981 When Bruce Dickinson replaced Paul Di'anno as lead singer, joining Harris, and Clive Burr on drums and also Adrian Smith and Dave Murray on Guitar, there where a few changes beforehand but this is the lineup that was the beginning of what would become arguably the greatest metal band of all time. Nicko McBrain replaced Clive Burr on drums in 1982, and Janick Gers joining the band in 1990 after Adrian Smith left for a bit due to indifference.. also Janick being in Bruce's solo band the year before. Enjoy your journey with the guys... definitely in my top 3 bands of all time. The Rime of the Ancient Mariner is a song you need to hear.

A fun Iron Maiden video to watch is their live appearance on German tv "playing" Wasted Years. I put "playing" in quotes because the station insisted they lip synced to their studio version, so they all just kinda fucked around on stage, switching instruments and all taking turns "singing"...it's gloriously hilarious. 😂😂😂 I actually met everyone in Iron Maiden around 2003 - my dad sold guitars to the whole band so we got backstage passes when I was like 13. They're all so pleasant and genuine...a memory I will never forget!

I know I said on one of your Metallica reactions that you're always better off listening to the studio version of a song before checking out the live version, but you can ignore that advice when it comes to Iron Maiden since they're actually better live than they are in the studio.

This should have been your first introduction to Iron Maiden. So if you really want to hear Iron Maiden singer Bruce Dickinson's true opera like voice watch this video of 'Hallowed Be Thy Name' Live from Hammersmith 1982. Bruce can hold a note longer than anyone else, and in my opinion is why every other rock singer wishes that they could sing like Bruce in his prime. The song is about a man getting ready to be hanged at the gallows and is looking back on his life. *Must Watch* kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bdyAZct3q7yZZ3k.html&feature=share

Some Background information: "the Number of the Beast" album was the first album featuring Bruce Dickinson as the singer. Before that he was the singer for Samson. The album is probably the most important recording for the "New Wave of British Heavy Metal". It had at least four legendary Songs: Run to the hills, the number of the beast, Hallowed be thy name, 22 Acacia Avenue. Some people say, this was Iron Maidens early peak and it went downhill from there. I disagree, but "The number of the beast" is certainly one of the best Rock Albums ever.

That was 1982. Might I suggest for comparison's sake fast forwarding all the way to the last song Maiden's recorded, a 2021 release, "Hell on Earth".

Incredible on certain songs.
