Metal is Universal... It doesn't care about race, religion, or gender.
@thiagosammett4 жыл бұрын
Bruce actually stands to that on the Boof of Souls Tour. His words, if I recall correctly is: "... This is family. This is not one nation, this is not one race, this is not one religion. This all religions, every race, every color, every person, every gender - there used to be two, now is a few more. You know what, we are all family in this together and you everybody is welcome and answer to the bullshit that is going out there at the moment, it's not to be full of hatred, it's to be full o love, and life, and music, and a lot of beer.

The first of the great thrash metal bands. The bass player, Steve Harris, is the musical force behind the band, IMO. His style, almost like a galloping horse, is a delight to hear (listen to The Trooper and you'll know what I mean). Keep up the great work!

Would you believe that Bruce, the guy running and jumping around like a maniac, was fifty years old when this was filmed? That man knows how to work a crowd like no one else I've ever seen live. Lyrically the song is about the desperate defense of Britain by the Royal Air Force against the German Luftwaffe in 1940. This is what Churchill was referring to when he said "Never have so many owed so much to so few". Those pilots were flying basically without rest in planes that were sometimes just patched up after having been shot down. If Hitler hadn't ordered his air force to switch to terror bombing London in response to a minor raid on Berlin, where previously they had been laying waste to British air bases, Germany just might have gotten enough air superiority to attempt a D-Day in reverse. Also, 1980's Maiden gets a lot of love but not a lot of reactors do their new music. I strongly recommend "Passchendale", a newer song based on a WW1 British soldier's resignation to his own inevitable death in one of the bloodiest battles of human history.

Aces High live is always like that. Not just the vocals, but the damn energy of the audience. Everyone goes nuts. It is about the R.A.F (Royal Air Force), and the speech at the beginning is Chruchill making his famous speech "Never was so much owed by so many to so few".

I'm 15 years younger than Bruce, and I couldn't run around and jump around the stage like he does. He's a ball of energy, and although I love the original Dianno albums, Maiden would not be where they are today if not for Bruce's drive, focus and energy. He's one of those "one in a million" personalities. Couple that with Harris' song writing, three amazing guitarists and one of the best drummers in rock and roll, it's a recipe for greatness.
