Richard Taylor sounds more "in" into the band now as on the debut. Plus the whole band sounds more "together". Fantastic old Iron Maiden vibes here!!!

[@garymitchell5899]

Really?? Have you ever heard the early Maiden albums?

[@terrihufnagleackley8496]

I Never Heard His Music He Is In Fantastic Hands With Steve Harris Yeah Fantastic Music Do You Like Iron Maiden 🎃

[@keefriff99]

It's amazing to me that Steve, at 62 years old, is so driven that he put together a side band to IRON FUCKING MAIDEN, and plays clubs in his off time! Especially with a bad back...he is truly a road dog to the end. That said, I'm not a huge fan of British Lion. Just not my thing, but I admire Steve's passion for music.

[@MikeStoddart]

I think the band already existed.

[@keefriff99]

@@MikeStoddart He started it 6 years ago. Makes no difference to the point I made about going out on tour after just finishing a massive Maiden leg.

[@richardcharlesworth6069]

Absolutely! Unbelievable that he's off on the road in England and then US next year after the IM tour. (PS. Give British Lion albums a few run throughs - grown on me and off to see them next month)

Amazing track. 🔥🤘🏼🎶

[@DarthFakie]

Don’t understand why people are saying Bruce should be singing, its British lion not iron maiden. Plus Richard Taylor writes all the music he sings anyway. Wouldn’t work...

[@ironbassler747]

Amen

[@ironbassler747]

Amen to that!!!!

[@evesmith1336]

So true

[@claudio830]

Great comment!! I love Maiden, but it's British Lion... the same, the people who says "Bruce should be play with Harris, Nicko, etc" about his solo carrer.

[@lordgeoffrey78]

obviously bruce shoudnt be singing, thats just stupid, but richard is not the best singer, his voice doenst suit metal/ rock, he has a soul voice, lion would be much better with a decent singer and proper production

[@Treasureson78RPM]

Pretty impressive vocals for sure, I truly dig the whole project. Amazing job by the legend "Steve Harris" and all the boys.

Very good track....I can hear a Maiden influence on it..A lot of people are down playing it but remember, Bruce had a lot of songs that sounded very Iron Maidenish.

[@AchiLLeSGr]

Great Track ! When you grew up with the music of the MIGHTY Steve Harris, you feel really proud for this after so many years of music inspiration. I hope Mr. Steve sometime to meet you in person! Cheers!

[@giuseppmetallic8872]

i really like this song classic maiden sound

[@Rockchicbitch]

His voice is awesome. Saw them live this year. Phenomenal show x

[@stimulanshr8698]

This song don't need Bruce, as much as Bruce's solo work don't need Steve on bass. However, Maiden needs these kind of songs - to the point and ridden of endless repetitions plaguing their material the last 20yrs. Well done British Lion!

[@Helatimo]

OMG!!!!! Who would have thought for a second that Mr. Steve Harris, bassist and founder of the biggest heavy metal band of ALL TIME would pay a visit to little old Waterloo Ontario!!!! Sweet!!! So looking forward to Nov 2.....Steve, UP THE IRONS and welcome to Waterloo!

Thinking about bringing a sign that says thanks for coming to my backyard. Fucking dream come true.

[@Helatimo]

@@bobs3302 what you should do is go up to "Sports Link" in Kitchener and grab a West Ham United scarf and give it to him...dude, he would love that and you'd be in the club! I'm sure he'll like our town.

[@aaronmcmahon7462]

Has a Di'Anno era vibe to me in the guitars. Would have been interesting to see what Paul would have done had this been from around Maiden's Killers era (but the chorus is more like something Bruce would do) - but great track irrespective of Maiden.
