Bruce Dickinson on Clarkson

[@maslav_]

That's why we love Bruce so much... He's not only a voice, he's an idol.

[@relzric]

Bruce Dickinson interviews are some of the coolest and most entertaining stuff on the internet. I thinks.

[@g-gamer4747]

relzric I think* You have to be right though!

[@JacobsKrąnųg]

@@g-gamer4747 you think, but he thinks!

[@aimfuldrifter]

I could listen to Bruce's stories for an hour.

[@badgers1975]

Listen to his autobiography on audible he narrates it is brilliant

[@Angusismyhero]

Bruce is everything. From a singer to an all-round good guy with a great sense of humour and everything in between. I've watched this interview so much the jokes shouldn't be funny any more but they still are...

[@1979GenXdude]

Bruce is sympathetic to the bone. Love his humor.

[@eddiethehead4791]

And bloody beautiful

[@notgadot]

*humoUr

[@RastaSaiyaman]

They should have him in Top Gear, No wait they should have the entire band, I would love to see Nicko in the reasonably priced car.

[@jonathangreen5778]

Nicko has a little bit of Jaguar, he even has Eddie on the headrests.

[@Mardenski100]

So true

[@moreblack]

Maybe if they'd done a planes episode

[@necrom4454]

Bruce driving an aircraft

[@RandomBoi-mc3ob]

"Granny shifting not double bass drumming like you should".

[@PeefRimgarGames]

This absolutely lived up to my expectation for an interview with one of my favorite singers

[@somegirl558]

When I stop my manga comic stories...

[@EdHunter2023]

Bruce is awesome! One of my favorite singers of all time. Up The Irons! 🤘

[@EdPlays1997]

Shame he didn't show up on Clarkson's Top Gear.

[@Rattlesnake153]

+Mr. Veteran That would've been hilarious. Especially considering Bruce is a pilot. So there would be some very interesting remarks about that.

[@EdPlays1997]

Rusty Horse Very true. Oh well, at least this is a good enough substitute. :)

[@Rattlesnake153]

Yeah, it is.

[@ToMeK3001pro]

Bruce in Saab would be great

[@tbn22]

Bruce isn't that much of an automotive enthusiast. He's more of an aviation enthusiast. Of all the members of Iron Maiden, they should've invited Nicko McBrain. He drives a bespoke blue Jaguar XKR.

[@Essehc]

"I've given up drinking, i've stopped, I'll have a double brandy please!" Lmao xD

[@DanDanChair3427]

"But you did on one tour, I seem to recall, get through 50,000 cans of beer" "Ooh that sounds about right, yes." Sounds so fucking casual, I love it.

[@Hellwyck]

It was the World Slavery Tour in 1984-85, it's documented on the booklet for the album Live After Death.

[@khennigs]

Absolutely correct. He's up there along with Rob Halford, among others, as being a legendary vocalist :D

[@geniusofbrutality]

I've seen this soooo many times...I wonder about myself sometimes, but I see that I'm not the only one who watches this in an almost religious way! Bruce is awesome, I love that guy!!! UP THE IRONS!!!!

[@AnOrganCornucopia]

Let me get this straight: John Bonham and Keith Moon were so keen to cut Peter Brampton's hair with a pair of garden shears that, to get at Brampton after he'd locked himself into his hotel room, Bonham got into the room with a fire axe? That is just TOO AWESOME. No wonder those two died so young - the world couldn't contain the win!

[@Edinovich]

Bruce and Clarkson, two of the greatest person ever to come out of the UK.

[@poppycock6572]

The both of these guys are two of my favorites... This interview was gold!

[@erikhelkimo]

Hahaha, his Ozzy impression is great ^^

[@andrewking4885]

Such a talented person is Bruce yet so down to earth as well.

[@Nimmermehr666]

4:28 is when the idea for flight 666 kicks in Bruces head xDDDDDDDDD I swear it!!!!

[@erikhelkimo]

So Clarkson is actually the man behind Flight 666 then!? :D

[@oz_media]

+Jean-Luc Picard He was thinking about the page 3 girls.

[@Nimmermehr666]

+Erik Helkimo Exactly!

[@erpunketo]

yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh FLIGHT 666 idea

[@fredrikjansson107]

[@Valamist]

Never heard Bruce outside of singing... he has a rather charming accent!

[@johnhutchison9782]

Have you had an opportunity to see one of his speaking tours? Phenomenal!!

[@arodz21]

I love it when people post these interview. I've never seen it before here in America. Awesome.

[@whitedsepuchre1326]

How’s the last 17 years been ? 😊

[@formaldehyde6535]

I loved this interview so much, circa 2008 I had one of those cool white and orange little Sony Ericsson phones. And I used up the majority of the space on it by recording this interview off my computer screen :) it always made me smile!!!

[@randomtask917]

Two Real Englishmen and great role models, Up the Irons!

[@betamime8523]

Well one of them is. One of them is a fucktard.

[@DokktorDeth]

+BetaMime Now now - don't say that about Clarkson, despite the facts that it's true.

[@kennyken7278]

+Random Task LOL Jeremy is a grade A Tool and an ass twat racist .... role model?

[@barsonald9539]

+Random Task Bruce yes but I wouldn't recommend Jeremy Clarkson as a role model; Unless you're the type that looks up to assholes

[@seanj3667]

Clarkson is not a role model.

[@decky04123]

Two of the best British entertainers ever xD

[@OsdCool]

I met him on a Bruce Air gig last year... I can vouch for that, he's just plain a great guy.

[@dred000]

A destruction with style! What a great interview with Bruce. I could listen to his stories for hours...

[@andrewdavies1312]

Can tell it's a long time ago...£30 for a maiden ticket 🤣🤣🤣

[@Theopinionnobodywanted]

Not that long ago. They didn't put the price up until 2008.

[@MalikCarr]

After watching this, remember, Iron Maiden was one of the minority of huge 80s bands that *didn't* have some kind of massive problem with substance abuse. Maybe they just got lucky.

[@Argumemnon]

Work ethics.

[@sebastianlacroix5871]

They got drunk enough but they always put the music first.

[@Djarra]

Bruce did to a point. He said once that he woke up in Japan with no memory of doing a bunch of shows in Australia the week before and that was the point at which he turned it all around started flying and so on. Of course DiAnno did have a huge drug issue and that is why he was fired very swiftly.

[@RastaSaiyaman]

Djarra He wasn't fired, he left on his own account.

[@Djarra]

RastaSaiyaman Depends who you listen to Paul says he left Smallwood says he was fired.

[@madaboutpix]

a brilliant and articulate man. Bruce Dickinson is one of my favorite personalities.

[@darthmetallus1977]

Blimey I haven't watched this interview since it's original broadcast. Hilarious as always Brucie. 😂

[@kittykatnip1970]

What a tempting, gorgeous, talented and funny man! Best voice in heavy metal ever!

[@powerslave88]

dude, jeremy clarkson and Bruce Dickinson-what more could u ask for?! Excellent!

[@fredrikwiklund8089]

Bruce is an World artist. Say no more.

[@PicardManeuver]

Bruce and Nicko really need to be Stars in a Reasonably Priced Car...

[@Planetwatts]

Clarkson = legend. Dickinson = legend.

[@ejl1000]

Jeremy: "I seem to recall on one tour you got through 50,000 cans of beer..." Bruce: "Ooh that seems about right, yeah"

[@simony999]

Hes also a great writer and a great tv/radio presenter

[@Elnont]

Bruce only ever speaks kindly of Ozzy yet Sharon still tries to claim that the reason she hates him is because he was rude - when we all know it’s because maiden stole the show at Ozz fest lmao.

[@homerc9101]

That's not what happened and no, Dickinson has been a shithead to everyone in the business including Ozzy, dio and even his pal rob Halford. Most people just ignore him and dismiss it as Bruce just having a big mouth, but Sharon who is a bitch didn't took shit from Bruce, Bruce is used to people taking the high road when dealing with him, Sharon isn't that kind of person.

[@iluvkochikame]

July 19th 2011 - Bruce Dickinson receives an Honorary Doctorate of Music. He's Dr. Bruce Dickinson now!

[@miatakiasgr8390]

lol i never thought i would see Clarkson and Dickinson to discuss....ahahaha thanks so much for this video uploader great job i am gonna watch it , greetings from Greece.. :D

You can't spell DICKINSON...and you call yourself a fan? ZON!!!

Are you still watching ?

I've seen interviews from the 80s and early 90s and hes hilarious and cool in them as well

[@goldsaj]

This is no more than 2 or 3 years ago. Bruce is an inspiration he,s a qaulified pilot,author,olympic fencer,radio dj,solo artist as well as being the singer in the biggest metal band ever! It,s just the way he is. Surely the most active and talented man ever!

[@bob8688]

Iron Maiden is not biggest metal bend ever,maybe for you!

[@limpet7r63]

Lucky enough to have had a beer with him and Janick Gers (a friend is related to Janick). Both genuinely nice, down to earth guys, and a proper laugh.

[@Angusismyhero]

I can't count how many times I've watched this interview... Erm - does anyone have footage of that concert he was on about? Haha!

Only Bruce can come out holding a beer and make it classy.

A bottle of beer on a chatshow, Don't think it'd happen on Parkinson or Jonathan Ross nowadays.

[@therandomsk8erben]

Bruce got the idea for Ed Force One from Jereny Clarkson! 4:21

[@crashin1]

I could listen to him talk all day...

[@ekhaat]

Not only is he one hell of a singer, but hes is also sooo much fun :-)

[@Mouse2113]

Two of my heroes!

[@TheOverlordOfProcrastination]

I met him once - when he was in a band called Samson. They were supporting Uriah Heep in Cardiff, S Wales. He was in the bar while the headliners were on and me, him and my mate talked for about 30 minutes. In fact he still owes me a pint. Also - he told us that their band's van was called Bertie! Why I would remember something like that after 30 odd years, I don't know.

[@Foxttellio]

Man i love Samson, it was a good band

[@djamy14]

Bruce and Austin = Father and Son = Legends.

[@geniusofbrutality]

Happy 50th, Bruce!!

[@Jabthecat]

@RoxyXStrawberry a song on the album ''No prayer for the dying'' is named ''Bring your daugther to the slauther''.

[@Beretta904]

Bruce is so funny lolz...... "he cut his air with garden shears" lolz!!!!!!!

[@IronMaiden9110]

LOL i love his Ozzy Ozbourne Impressions "a Bit of Brandy!" lol

Who's watching in 2016?

[@410Gregj]

Great Ozzy impersonation 👍😂

[@benjambreeg]

@nicitaliano 1- steve trialled many many singers and liked blaze's dark deep voice which suited the album content (steves divorce - 2AM etc). 2- blaze had surgery and suffered live.. also couldnt tour southern US because of allergies. 3- adrian was asked to return and said would only do so jan remained and bruce came back. 4- when bruce left in 93 he didnt enjoy being in the band.. there are some pretty explicit interviews where nicko cusses him out.. so no. no one knew hed come back.

[@Pannemat]

Some people still have a problem separating the date the video was posted and the date of the actual footage...

[@lukajova]

We want Bruce on Top Gear!!!!

[@shaneuk666]

Screammm For me CLARKSON!!

[@Jeremy_Poland]

A very funny interwiew with two brilliant guys. Bruce is amazing!

[@Lantrix]

Wrong. I saw Bruce singing in person in Sydney and Melbourne 3 months ago, and it is him.

[@dred000]

Not in the 90's but it was just a few years ago maybe 3 or 4 because Bruce has cut his hair and because Jeremy introduces him as 'the voice of Iron Maiden' so it seems that Bruce has already rejoined the band as the interview took place.

[@w-james9277]

Keith Moon + John Bonham + Vodka + Cocane + Hotel Room = Interesting mix

[@metalbornmetalbred]

Bruce Dickinson is the Bruce Lee of all that is METAL!

[@misshorseman]

goldai is wrong. The series Clarkson ran between 1998 and 2000, so it is at least 7 years ago. Bruck Dickinson, though, must be at least 40 years old. Looks bloody good for his age, despite a life of extraordinary excess.
