Thanks to all the subscribers and to all who have commented with suggestions, tips, and just general thoughts. We appreciate the support very much!

Bands like Iron Maiden and Queensryche are theatrical story tellers

Rime of the Ancient Mariner from Flight 666, it’s definitely a must.

The solo of both guitar and bass together is some of the most beautiful music Maiden has recorded.

Iron Maiden....Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Fear of the Dark Live at Rio 2001, Hallowed be thy name, Paschendale, Revelations, Jorneyman, The Clansman live at Rio 2001, Wasted Years , 2 Minutes to Midnight The list is endless..... don't know which one you listened to that you didn't like but I'm surprised.

Somewhere In Time and Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son are two of the most epic albums ever recorded! UP THE IRONS!!!

He doesn't just sing, he's telling a story, in fact he's singing a story. Most all of their songs are like that. I absolutely love it. Just like Queensryche in the way their songs and albums are told and not just sung.

Iron Maiden - Infinite Dreams

Iron Maiden - Blood brothers from the rock in Rio concert in front of over 250,000 fans

Caught Somewhere In Time , same record ..

This is from the album called Somewhere in Time, and that was the first time they used synthesizers on the guitars and bass, and also the keyboard combined with all that, gave this album this unique vibe and this kinda futuristic, sci-fi groove to the songs. It's one of the many reasons I consider this album as my favorite.

I was walking around Shanghai last year, wearing my headphones, and this song got randomly picked by my phone's music player. As an American in China...it fit perfectly. Great song!

Hi! If Iron Maiden, you schould listen and watch live versions! Now its time for Fear of the Dark, Rio 2001, The Trooper En Vivo, Hallowed by the Name live 1982! Greatings from Poland!

Iron Maiden tell tales...stories in their songs.....they are brilliant !!!!!

such an overlooked classic, it's got so many cool layers and one of the most beautiful solos

Beautiful song. Beautiful reaction. Up The Irons! \,,/

It is one of the best solos of Adrian at Iron... for me, it is on TOP 3.

Wasted Years, Please.

Try infinite dreams from iron maiden. The studio version or to tame a land

Nice reaction. More Maiden reactions, please. My suggestions: "Alexander the Great" or "Rime of the Ancient Mariner".

Iron Maiden - Infinite Dreams & Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son (Maiden England '88). My Favourite Live Songs from Iron Maiden.

"Alexander the great" it's an amazing song and a history lesson if you check the lyrics... up the irons

Iron maiden is one of the best live performing (and long running) bands of all time. Bruce Dickinson (the lead singer) has an excellent operatic style singing voice. Many of their songs have a historical component as Bruce is a professor of history, (an olympic fencer and pilot among other things). Please, please, please you must listen to Hallowed Be Thy Name, Revelations, and Fear Of The Dark. I subscribed to you guys and put notifications on so I'm hoping to see those come up soon!

Goose Bumps on this song! You have to listen to full albums and understand their feel and vibe! They're an amazing band!

Bruce Dickinson is a very theatrical and operatic singer. One of the greatest vocalist of all time. Maiden is known to be great story tellers in their music and if you are not careful you may just learn a thing or two about history, lol. "Up The IRONS!"

Hallowed Be Thy Name! Best Iron Maiden song ever. Live

The song is about the Franklin expedition from the mid 1800’s that was looking for a Northern passage from the Atlantic to Pacific Ocean and became trapped in ice and they all perished. The song is from the perspective of one of the young crew men. Their graves were found perfectly preserved in the ice in the 1980’s.

Loved your reaction guys! More iron maiden please!!! ))

ADRAN SMITH IS THE KING OF FEELING IN HIS GUITAR SOLO .... GUYS, I LOVE YOUR REACTIONS, I SEND YOU A VERY AFFECTIVE GREETING FROM THIS CORNER OF THE WORLD CALLED CHILE !!!!!!!!!

Awesome reaction , Iron Maiden 🤟🏻🤘🏼🤟🏻fear of the dark live at rio 🤘🏼🤟🏻🤘🏼🤟🏻

Video Aces High is also very good 👌

The guitarist Adrian Smith writes quite a few of their songs, his lyrical style is more introverted and thoughtful. You could try Infinite Dreams which is very similar in style to this one. Wasted years is another interesting one too.

Hallowed be Thy Name, fear of the dark, run to the hills, the trooper, the evil that men do, seventh son of a seventh son, wasted years, some great songs, but Hallowed be Thy Name is one for his vocals. Bruce Dickinson and Geoff Tate are my two all time favorite vocalist.

Bruces voice is "operatic", Maiden are very theatrical and literal, most songs are really stories based on history, religion, poems, film, myths & legends. you REALLY need to give "Hallowed be Thy Name" a listen, the album this song is from has a heavy synth feel being a futuristic style concept album. (based on scifi noir akin to Bladerunner). so they can sound a bit different but certainly have a signature sound. keep an ear out for that rattling bass, you get 2 and later 3 lead guitarists for your buck and Bruce has some amazing vocals especially earlier albums. also all consummate performers that can often sound better live & the live shows are epic.

One of the best technical metal bands to ever be

Really respect that you pulled a video because you didn't enjoy it, and essentially didn't want to insult your fans who like it, really nice of you. - This is my favourite Iron Maiden song ever, so I'm very happy you enjoy it too!

y'all did a great job doing this one I have not seen y'all before but the audio quality is great and I like that you're centered and then doing the video centered also, keep up the good work there's a lot of great music out there definitely check it out and keep on rocking in the Free world

My favorite Iron Maiden tracks: Hallowed Be Thy Name and Rime of the Ancient Mariner! Do them please!!!

Maiden once a week!

Hello from Croatia♥️ this song is also one of these songs🤣💛

Guys cant go wrong with any Iron Maiden 🔥🔥👍👍

Awesome song man

Grettings from Brazil, please bring The Rime of The ancient Mariner live!

For the guitarists out there Iron Maiden often plays stratocasters with humbucking DiMarzio pickups if you're looking to achieve the sound.

Glad you liked it. You need to listen to several tons of Iron Maiden.

This is the band's second singer. Give their first a try. "Iron Maiden ( Paul Dianno) Wrathchild"

Iron Maiden's style in particular, is called *POWER METAL.* I believe lol 😎

que buena canción !! se me habia olvidado por completo

Check out anything from this album, you'll prob like it more. Check out the Title track, Somewhere in time.

Bruce isn't singing simple love songs or even about anything most ppl can commonly relate to, he's telling a story. The fact is, you're going to feel disoriented, at least at first, because he's taking you to a place you've never been before. He's taking chapters from history book, and religious doctrines, that would normally make you want to slam your head on a desk, having to learn about in some classroom. Taking all that to some very thick of depth melodies and rhythms, like epic level Schoolhouse rock. It's not for everyone, but it's for many of us.

they used guitar-synthesizers on the album, somewhere in time, where this song is from.

Guitar sound is a galline kruger lunchbox amp ..i use to have one ..i loved that amp

Iron Maiden are story tellers, Harris reads a lot and writes most of the song. They're a Metal Powerhouse.

❤️❤️❤️❤️

Bruce has an operatic sound to give him more voice control, hes called the 'air raid siren' for a reason

Rime of the Ancient Mariner from flight 666.

Caught Somewhere In Time by them 🤘🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🤘🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🤘🤟🏼🤘

maiden are the greatest story tellers in all of metal

Check out Fear of The Dark live from Rock in Rio by Iron Maiden in 2001 or travel even further back in time to 1982 and Hallowed be Thy Name live from Hammersmith, I guarantee it, you will NOT be disappointed guys! Up The Irons 🤘

Might be no better Maiden performance than 'The Talisman" live on the En Vivo DVD shot in front of 50,000+ in Santiago, Chile, 2011. Certainly in the top of Maiden live songs. Stranger was only played live on this tour in 1986-87, never again except for a few shows in '99.

This is the studio version backing the live performance for the official video

hallowed be thy name

Adrian Smith you are a genius , love that solo

Things changed a lot when Bruce "Air Raid Siren" Dickinson joined the band. Happy you found a song you liked. Saw them many times in concert. Almost Scy-Fy Metal. I recommend "Wasted Years" and "Aces High"

Avantasia- reach out for the light !!!!!!!

This is the kind of dared songs of Maiden that makes me love this band. For me is my #1 and then Dream Theater.

Please do live versions of Iron Maiden songs

Adrian Smith writes great songs, and his solos are so memorable. For dramatic vocals, check out a newer Iron Maiden song called The Longest Day.

Hello from Croatia❤️

You also have to listen to aces high (official video)! One of my favorite maiden songs!!

Written by Adrian Smith (white guitar), who also plays the guitar solos.

Where Eagles Dare is a must!

Dig deep into Iron Maiden and you will find amazing things. Still Life, Fear of the Dark live in Rio, Wasted Years, 22 Acacia Avenue, The Longest Day with 'Saving Private Ryan footage'; Dance of Death, Hallowed be thy name, so many, so many more. Chris

What was the Maiden song you didnt like? Just curious.

Bruce Dickinson's vocals are *SUPPOSE TO BE* poetic. That's his style. And when comes to great metal vocalists and his medival-like style of vocals, Dickinson doesn't just sing the songs. He likes to tell stories in so doing.

I have 2 for you from Maiden and I am 100% sure you'll love either one: Same Somewhere in Time album Deja Vu and from Piece of Mind album To Tame a Land. These two songs for some reason no one has reacted to, except for To Tame a Land, maybe one or two people, I don't know, but you need to check them out!

She must be the only person not to like Bruces voice lol. Nothing wrong with he’s voice.. iron Maiden sing about story’s..great story tellers

Ive been a Maiden fan since I was 8, however, I preferred Paul D'Ianno to Bruce Dickinson as the lead singer......look up 'Iron Maiden Killers' I LOVED him as a frontman

Megadeth....Hangar 18/Peace Sells/Symphony of Destruction/Sweating Bullets...to name a few!!!👍🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

“Sign of the cross” rock in Rio from Iron Maiden.

Me enamore de la niña 😎😁

Beautiful lady. And she likes Iron Maiden.

They are a very theatrical band both in music writing and performance which is what might be the poetic reference you made. Also what was the song of theirs you guys didn’t like ? Your not going to offend us...everyone has an opinion which is why we want to see your reaction.

Seventh son of a seventh son what a tune

What a nostalgia! Now i kindly suggest European bands like King diamond, Accept and Running wild . There's Someone of my favorite groups of all time.

2 minutes to midnight. rock on.

Another top fav as a kid in 70s , Maiden, Van Halen, but you didn't mention Judas Priest! Still jamming since 68 ,MY Birth year, Rob Halfords rage is similar to Geoff Tate!. Try early Priest like Beyond the Realms of Death for full range. The song on the Tipper Gore Filthy 15 that was heading towards censorship... But he, Dee Snyder from twisted sister and others stopped that. But thats why we have labeling like EX for explicit lyrics. Made me want to buy it sooooo fast!

You should deffo try The Clansman live from Rock in Rio 2001. It’s a proper banger

Bruce Dickinson is a storyteller plus a singer he never did those - i- love- you- do- you -love- me blablabla songs, he is very interested in history and high class literature - besides of it all he is also a pilot- they fly their own 747 - lol - loved your reaction

I've seen many concerts thru the years n Iron Maiden I've seen multiple times. Every show i saw was amazing in every way. To say it has a Europe feel is wrong they existed long b4 Europe n Europe could only dream 2b anywhere close 2 the level of Maiden

Your talking about one of Heavy Metals greatest voices. Try the Trooper, Hallowd be thy name.🤘🤘

Actually the whole album is great, imo their best album. Which song did you react to and dislike? Probably the typical "starter songs" Run to the hills or the number of the beast. Caught Somewhere In Time, The Loneliness Of the Long Distance Runner, Alexander The Great... Piwerslave, Aces High, The Reincarnation Of Benjamin Breeg, Fear Of The Dark (live!), Clairvoyant, Moonchild, Flight Of Icarus, The Prisoner, Transylvania, Phantom Of the Opera, Nomad, ... I would think you would enjoy quite a few of them. But you may want to check out a few songs if the singers (Bruce Dickinson) solo works. He did great albums actually while he was song his stuff... The Tower, Road To Hell, Gods Of War, inertia, Accident Of Birth, Book Of The,... Well actually his albums Accident is Birth and Chemical Wedding are very good for the list part And yes, try Nightwish. Anything from Wacken 2013, Wembley 2015 or Buenos Aires 2018 should be great

Check out Dream of Mirrors from them. Very cool tune.

Ghost Love Score Nightwish is awesome song live at wacken also in the same symphonic metal range check out Epica Sancta Terra featuring Nightwishs' Floor Jansen singing alongside Epica's Simone Simons it's like hearing 2 Angels singing The Netherlands have something in the water so many great singers come out of there also check out on a milder tone the Dutch sister band OG3NE Bohemian Rhapsody (Queen Cover)

Iron Maiden Hallowed Be Thy Name from The Number of the Beast album. You will not be disappointed.

Just curious on what song you didn’t like and if you went back and listened to it again and if you did if you still don’t like it or like it or like it just a bit better now after a few listens

For an interesting fact, in 2015, the year of their most recent album, the band spent the time and money remastering their entire catalog using all new modern techniques by first restoring the original master tapes, and then running them thru the most modern remastering tools available. The result was nothing short of stunning. Previous releases and remasterings (the last major one was in 1998), had suffered from the Loudness War, which was a remastering process where they just boosted the levels of sound across the board and what that did was it destroyed the dynamic range of the songs. Soft parts were louder, but louder parts came in at the same level, which eliminated the "umph" that they had in the original recordings. These 2015 remasters eliminates the Loudness War effects, and when the song gets loud, it gets loud like it should. The 2015 remasters were first released on Vinyl LPs over a couple of years, and then in 2018, they started releasing them on CD. As of right now, all studio albums have been released, with the Live albums coming out now. I wanna say there's about a half dozen or so live albums.

The next Iron Maiden song should be "Fear of the Dark". Another classic!

Try "wishbone ash"...the first band in the world, to feature two lead guitarist...iron maiden, said wishbone ash, was a major influence...any song from their most famous album "ARGUS"...will be great for a reaction from you

That solo is off the richter scale
