The words on the screen are from a poem written about The Charge of the Light Brigade, during the Crimean War. History lesson over! I think you need to reach a certain age to appreciate a genre you're not used to. You introduced me to rap, welcome to rock!!

[@lisaheathcock7924]

UP THE IRONS!!!🤘🤘🔥 Iron Maiden are fantastical storytellers, the music the lyrics… straight Fire!!! Please do More!!! Hallowed Be Thy Name is Great Live!! 🤘🔥🥰

[@TIEdrummer]

I love how you picked up on Harris’ signature bass “gallop” technique… as an old head in the world of hip hop and metal… I love seeing you delve into older things. Bruce Dickinson (the singer) is an amazing human. He’s a commercial pilot, an Olympic Level fencer, #1 best selling author, he beat tongue cancer, has a university level professor of ancient history degree as well as an honorary Doctorate… he flies the band in their 747 when they’re on tour 😂 “Run to the Hills” is right up there with the trooper as far as public notoriety, they’re album and T-shirt artwork really helped make them a mainstay in pop culture too (in my opinion)

[@gratefuloctopus7446]

This was an awesome surprise from you! You should definitely do Hallowed Be Thy Name by Iron Maiden! Such amazing lyrics on that song.

[@metalmark1214]

I've been listening to Iron Maiden since 1982, at the age of 15. To give you a complete list of Iron Maiden recommendations, see my list below. This song, The Trooper is based on the Charge of the Light Brigade at the Battle of Balaclava 1854,which took place during the Crimean War The single's accompanying music video included clips of a cavalry battle from the 1936 film The Charge of the Light Brigade, starring Errol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland. Iron Maiden is: Bruce Dickinson - Vocals Born: August 7, 1958 (age 63 years) Started with Iron Maiden in 1981, left in 1993 and rejoined in 1999 and present singer Steve Harris - Bassist and Founder Born: March 12, 1956 (age 66 years), Started the band in 1975 and has never left Dave Murray - Guitarist Born: December 23, 1956 (age 65 years), 1976-1977, 1978- present Adrian Smith - Guitarist Born: February 27, 1957 (age 65 years), 1980-1990, 1999-present Janick Gers - Guiarist Born: January 27, 1957 (age 65 years), 1990 - present Nicko McBrain - Drums Born: June 5, 1952 (age 70 years), 1982 - present The next songs I'd recommend are Rime of the Ancient Mainer - LiveFlight666 and Fear of the Dark Live Rock in Rio 2001 Highlight of songs I'd recommend are: From Iron Maiden------ Phantom of the Opera - A must for live version Strange World (this one will be totally different Iron Maiden) From Killers ------ Murders in the Rue Morgue (Very loosely influenced by Edgar Allen Poe's short story, a story of a fugitive being sought for murder) ***You have done Genghis Khan (an instrumental - perfect for air drumming) Innocent Exile (continues the theme of Murders in the Rue Morgue of an unjustly accused fugitive) Killers (A journey into the twisted mind of a deranged killer) Prodigal Son(about a repentant man reminiscent of the prodigal son parable found in Luke 15 of the bible) Purgatory(lyrics of song read like a poem) Drifter (focuses on the possibility of new beginnings) From The Number of the Beast------ Invaders (It graphically depicts the violence and horror of a defense against a Viking invasion) The Prisoner (based on the UK television series that ran briefly in the late 1960’s) 22 Acacia Avenue (The continuation of Charlotte the Harlot) The Number of the Beast (Inspired by a dream Bassist Steve Harris had after watching the movie the Omen2) Run to the Hills (about the European arrival in America told from the perspective of both the oppressed Cree and the invading white soldiers) Hallowed be Thy Name (about a man who is about to be put to death and what he goes through) * Do this song live at Hammersmith 1982 From Piece of Mind------ Where Eagles Dare (based on an Alistair Maclean novel, (1967), and film (1968) about a WWII rescue of an American general from a Nazi stronghold in the Bavarian Alps Revelations (Starts with the Hymnal from Oh God of Earth and Alter, the next two verses on the Hindu philosophy, the third verse in Yoga a snake called Kundalini that lives at the base of your spinal cord, during meditation a spiritual entity is created symbolizing the transcendental union with God) Flight of Icarus (loosely based on the ancient Greek myth of Icarus) The Trooper (based on the Charge of the Light Brigade at the Battle of Balaclava 1854,which took place during the Crimean War) To Tame a Land (the song relays the story of Paul Atreides, Paul Muad'Dib, from the book Dune by Frank Herbert) From Powerslave------ Aces High (about aircraft dog fighting between the British and German fighter pilots of WWII) 2 Minutes to Midnight - About the Doomsday clock for the End of the World Back in The Village (The continuation of the song The Prisoner) Powerslave (about an arrogant pharaoh in his dying hours, he can't understand why he's about to die and fights it in vain) Rime of the Ancient Mariner - (From the poem of the same name by Samuel Taylor Coleridge (story about about an ocean voyage) From Somewhere in Time------- Wasted Years (A song about the admonition to appreciate the present and not to take things for granted) The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner (based on a short story of Alan Sillitoe which was made into a 1962 film Alexander the Great (About the story of Alexander the Great From 7th Son of a 7th Son (a concept album)------ Infinite Dreams (Detailing someone who is tormented by paranormal dreams and nightmares) The Evil That Men Do (Title taken from a quote in Shakespeare Julius Caesar but the song is unrelated) The Clairvoyant (relates the reflections of the 7th Son of the 7th Son on his life and his powers) From Fear of the Dark------ Wasting Love (About the emptiness of relationships without love. Another Maiden ballad) Fear of the Dark (About being afraid of the dark and the things in the dark that might be there - absolute a live performance for this one) From Brave New World------ The Wicker Man (about the apathy of our modern society and our egotistic disinterest of what is happening until something happens to us) Ghost of the Navigator (The lyrics are a metaphor of life, with the ship sailing west towards the setting sun representing death) Brave New World (Loosely based on the 1932 novel by Aldous Huxley) Dream of Mirrors (Yet another song about reoccurring and maybe premonitory dreams) Out of the Silent Planet (Supposedly inspired by the 1956 science -fiction film Forbidden Planet) From Dance of Death------ No More Lies (The lyrics deal with someone knows his time has come with the possibility of reincarnation) Dance of Death (Orinally inspired by Ingmar Bergman's 1957 film The Seventh Seal - Another one to do as a live performance) Paschendale (about the Battle of Passchendaele during WWI) From A Matter of Life and Death------ Brighter than a Thousand Suns (About the dawn of the nuclear bomb age) The Longest Day (about the WWII Normandy Invasion) Out of the Shadows (About being born) Up the Irons!

[@cnervip]

dude you seem to be a connoisseur, I only heard iron maiden from my friends but your list gives me such a nostalgia(even tho I born in the '89) iron maiden skips generations

[@MsBenlane]

no spca then. many horses were hurt and thus killed. trip wires. wire attached to leg horse running fullmout bang. a stunt double got a sword throughn a leg. dirrector not known for safety concerns, his silent noah's ark haqd ambulances in a chain leaving the studio after many gallons of water were dumped on extras on sets to create a massive flood.

[@timprice5747]

Some Maiden songs are stories, but many are about historic events, literature, or sometimes, like this one both. They are the best live band ever. Should check out the 1983 live version of Hallowed be thy Name. Up the irons!

[@loobkoob]

It's nice to see you stepping out of your comfort zone! Hallowed Be Thy Name and Rime Of The Ancient Mariner are probably two of the most interesting "stories" from Iron Maiden. Both are very "prog rock" in structure and style, rather than a more straight forward structure like this one. Both have got fantastic atmosphere and progression. They're very much "epics" (in length and subject matter). Run To The Hills, Aces High and Number Of The Beast are probably the ones to go for more a more straightforward, "radio friendly" sound and structure like The Trooper (as straightforward as Iron Maiden get, anyway!)

[@B.Macklin]

Yes Sir! The more diverse catalog in your music repertoire only helps your craft. You must checkout a classic rock masterpiece by the band KANSAS - Carry on Wayward Son

[@brandonpozorski6222]

As a metal head I love this and would absolutely love to see you do more maiden reactions.

[@knobbynah]

40 years later and Iron Maiden is still just as awesome. I saw them MANY times back in the 80's.

[@tylersmith859]

🔥🔥master of puppets🔥🔥 deserves your attention!! Loving the new content!!

[@heathcornbeef]

Kia ora hello from aotearoa New Zealand hay I've had the TROOPER TATTOOED ON MY BACK SINCE 1989

[@heathcornbeef]

Ps shhhh it's my dirty little secret I'm a PUNK ROCKER who went off track for a little while but found my way back to the AWESOME ROAD OF PUNK ROCK SKA AND REGGAE it was a close call i could of ended up being a hairy not a MOHICAN

[@bryanparker2925]

Run to the Hills, Aces High, hallowed be the name, number of the beast

[@fernandorodrigues1939]

As an Iron Maiden fan since 1985, one thing I can assure you, live they are the best bar none! You should react to them live and be amazed!

[@maryannerazzano7692]

Agree 👍.

[@someoneyoudontknow342]

Listen to Fear of the Dark Live in Rock in Rio. Its one of the best concerts with one of the biggest crowd ever. Its also one of their most played songs. ♥️

[@scottwallace1]

2:06 that is the reaction everyone has hearing this for the first time when the whole band kicks in and breaks into ‘the gallop’. It is, in my opinion, the single most glorious moment in heavy metal. Up the Irons 🤘

[@strongbear88]

The Number of the Beast, Run to the hills, Hallowed be thy name are some real slappers

[@jaggerbastienjb]

"dude thats heavy af" hell yeah it is 🤘

[@mrrandomassduck]

I love the way Dave's solo basically melted your face. As nature intended. ;-)

[@christopherdavidson4382]

I'm going to see Iron Maiden live in Columbus, Ohio tonight for the first time since 1985! I am so freaking pumped!

[@zulareshijastro9968]

Iron maiden is actually one of the most important Heavy Metal Bands of Rock History.

[@andrewmoss3681]

I LOVE Maiden. Bruce Dickenson has an opera level singing voice. Even after beating throat cancer! They are also major history nerds & love to write their songs around poems & history. Check out, The rime of the Ancient mariner for a better example of them doing this.

[@arc88arc88]

Yay! Would love to see more rock/metal reactions from you, my friend 🤘. We’re here to answer any questions 😂

[@CliffBeatsOfficial]

Oh I’ll have plenty of questions lol 👊 🤘

[@garrettvanhalen1726]

You gotta do Iron Maiden Run to the Hills dude

[@talismanmia2537]

Maiden's catalog of high-quality tracks is arguably larger than any other band because they've been going consistently strong for 40+ years. So there's a shitload to choose from. This is one from their earlier days (4th album in 1983). You might want to consider fast forwarding to the last song on possibly their last album, the 17th, released last September. The song is Hell on Earth, and for a few hardcore fans like myself that have been there from the start, this is the best song they've ever done and certainly one to go out on. Same songwriter as from this track. Don't leave out the lyrics if you choose to listen. As spot on as you can get about the earth we're currently inhabiting.

[@motoalchemy]

Iron maiden still tours..still hits the charts and still sells every seat.....try live in rio....

[@user-qv2ur2bw3z]

UP THE IRONS. Once a again another history lesson. Love the face you picked up the Gallop bass like someone else said this band is amazing seen them only once but one the best shows I ever saw and I been a lot concerts in 80s. I still got my Eddie concert t-shirt dressed in Royal Canadian Mounted Police uniform as the concert was in Toronto, Canada

[@maryannerazzano7692]

Just saw them Wed night in Southern California 🤘💜 Check out Hallowed be thy name 1982 live version. Ps , they are better live!! Bruce Dickinson is a licensed pilot and they have their own jet. He's also very intelligent, I believe he has a degree in history

[@laugenbrezel_]

You definitely have to check out “Hallowed be thy Name” - Live at Beast over Hammersmith

[@krernertok221]

Where to start? Hallowed Be Thy Name could be a good one. Aces High, Can I Play With Madness, Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Wasted Years... They've got a lot of good ones 😅

[@mandyatterbury5408]

I agree with all your picks.

[@liammerrick6399]

Maiden have a live show from 1982 at the Hammersmith in London. It's incredible man. They are all about the live show. Hallowed be thy name, 22 acacia avenue and the prisoner are all mind bogglingly good on that show but man, maiden has 17 studio albums. They have a massive catalog and the first 10yrs 8n particular are ridiculous. They tell amazing stories and every band member brings someth8ng and gets their chance to shine. Best band 8n the world.

[@nickschiavulli693]

They are one of the best live bands around check out anything from Rock n Rio and EnVivo🤘

[@kirstyoneill6609]

I'm loving all the new music your reacting too xx it's awesome to watch you enjoy new musicians and bands xx ❤️🐢❤️ xx

[@markferrett700]

The Iron Maiden guys are the most humble dudes you could meet....I used to play football(soccer) with Steve Harris ,way before Iron Maiden took off......he is a top bloke......"up the Ammers".

[@DHARMN00]

For song writing and live performances, just pull up a list and dive in. Lyrics based on literature, history, social issues, even nightmares and fears.... Iron Maiden has a deep and fantastic catalog to choose from .

[@f.b.jeffers0n]

Iron Maiden is one of the legends, but for metal, Cradle of Filth - Deflowering the Maidenhead, Displeasuring the Goddess is my go-to request... I doubt it will get many likes, but Dani Filth got me into writing at a low point in my life, and I'm sure you could appreciate the metaphors he paints his pictures with...

[@TrollingInTheDeep]

Caught Somewhere In Time by them 🤘🤘 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@hudedwards8943]

Take a listen to Paschendale from Maiden! Great lyrics, my favorite Maiden song! Thanks for spreading out your catalog!

[@williambellew767]

I love Iron Maiden. I think Dave and Adrian are the most underrated guitar players. To me, they are one of the best tandems.

[@off1k]

To really appreciate Iron Maiden check out their live stuff. If memory serves me correctly I think around 200 horses were killed making that movie.

[@kaisersozia]

Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner!! Up the irons!!!

[@udayshah7205]

It's ok love to c that u reacting to rock

[@erics4653]

Iron Maiden......teaching you history and kicking your ass for 47 years.....

[@nobodybutzach]

Bro! This is my favorite Iron Maiden song 😂. Very nice!

[@GavP75]

Can’t really go wrong with Maiden, Hallowed be thy name, Nomad, Alexander the Great, Rime of the ancient mariner, Dance of death, When the wild wind blows, Paschendale, Hell on Earth, Revelations, Empire of the clouds, Sign of the cross(live) too name a few, plenty of others too.

[@Mark-xr8kj]

FEAR OF THE DARK, LIVE TOP 3 LIVE BANDS EVER

[@jimmyavsfan24]

UP THE IRONS 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@Acroanidd]

Galloping is actually a technique that is used in a lot of metal. I use it on guitar all the time. It's really cool that you picked up on it right away! \m/

[@mrmaul558]

I am a total Stan since I heard Marshal Mathers LP when I was 10 years old, but grew into a full Metalhead when I got to High School, and Iron Maiden is my absolute all-time favorite Metal Band! Definitely lots to dive into with their lyrics and the history/backstory behind the stories they tell.

[@palladinodessa8988]

I have been listening and seeing Maiden since the early 80's, they are the soundtrack to my life and I know I am not alone. Anything live by them is the way to go. Fear of the Dark, Hallowed be thy Name, Dance of Death. 🤘 Up the Irons!

[@AK00777]

This made my day!

[@dustincarson4035]

"Hallowed Be Thy Name" live from 1982- the best way to experience Maiden is to listen to their live recordings. Thanks for the awesome channel.

[@gandalf679]

Listening to Iron Maiden is a history lesson...enjoy the ride...63 year old army vet...Rock ON!!

[@kardeef33317]

Horses were killed in the movie and that's why they were banned from radio and TV. Hollowed be they name official video. Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Dance of Death En Vivo. Revelations. Where Eagles Dare, Still Life. Flight of Icarus, Aces High, Power slave., Number of the Beast, 22 Acacia Avenue and much more. They have been around since 1975 and are still filling 180k statiums today.

[@davideddy8557]

Not sure if it has been recommended yet, but 'Rime of the Ancient Mariner' is another fantastic one of theirs. Bruce Dickinson is a true renaissance man and takes a lot of inspiration from Classic literature.

[@davenewman1970]

Maiden is always a history lesson. Love their lyrics

[@williamcoyle7500]

And someone said it earlier you really did do a big part of introducing me to rap so welcome to rock we got bars too

[@MichaelBattiste]

His voice is AMAZING. There is a video of a concert in rio, and he runs back & forth across the stage waving a giant flag, and continues to sing without losing his breath. Again, he is AMAZING

[@joebarrera9741]

One of the coolest bands on the planet

[@adirondackmama7724]

Love it!! You did the metal stank face, and commented on the nastiness of the riffs. Ultimate praise in the metal world. Welcome to my favorite music genre. Can't wait to see you react to more. If you ever get a chance check out Patient Sixty-Seven they are an independent metalcore band out of Australia their songs scattered, feel alive, and colours are great lyrically. And have a good balance of deep dirty gutturals and clean vocals #AOD

[@rednexcentralnc]

Awesome tune. Gotta do Run to the Hiils! Took my son to see them in 2016. AOD 👊

[@EducatedHillbilly]

Omg...I grew up with Iron Maiden on vinyl. You have to give Run To The Hills a listen. #cliffbeats

[@MrChris1978moleman]

Love ur reaction ❤

[@LordVader66]

One of the coolest and most iconic Bands and Guitar Riffs of all time!

[@johanschilt1086]

Hallowed be the name!!!!

[@FaceYourInnerFear]

I have that LP, Circus of Death by QUICK CHANGE, cool that your pops was part of it.

[@Welshy1001]

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN !! LIVE is where Maiden excell... Much faster and louder than studio tracks. And if you like lyrics, you've just found the perfect source of magical tales of history.... Enjoy dude.. 🤘 Recommend anything LIVE from South America to review from 2000 to 2014. (El Vivo or Rock in Rio)

[@maryannerazzano7692]

Yessss 🤘

[@Gsc-2112]

They made history class in high school cool a lot of history in their song.video take from an old Errol Flynn movie that actually changed Hollywood movies. all of the fallen horse were killed after that

[@michaelh3715]

O man the Maiden rabbit hole. Their best work is pre 1986 or so but there is still some quality songs after.

[@DartJedi]

46 years of Maiden can't be wrong. Pulling over a 100K fans in some shows.

[@eddiehernandez3592]

Blood brothers , you can’t go wrong with this song

[@WelbyIsYourGod]

Steve Harris is one of the best bassists ever. He also wrote the majority of their songs and many are historically based. Definitely check out more Maiden like Hallowed Be Thy Name and many others. Would also be pretty dope to hear some Sabbath or Ozzy on your channel. Love the grind and keep be awesome bro

[@WelbyIsYourGod]

Oh and the writing during the MV is The Charge of the Light Brigade

[@lsoliece14]

Aces High is another good up your iron as we maiden fans say 🤘🤘

[@mikemogul2263]

That's our Dave. Silky smooth, ridiculously slinky, and downright disgusting.

[@jaggerbastienjb]

*after hearing dave murrays solo* "That is digusting!" ❤

[@Sdroiden]

Iron maiden should be watched live so look for those videos

[@kardeef33317]

Watch hollowed by they name, the official video it's was taped 2 days B4 the album was released. This sone is about the poem The as charge of the light brigade. And was why maiden was banned from MTV because it used footage from the movie.

[@arnoldcox9128]

I'm glad you picked up on the galloping sound like a soldier going into battle on a horse

[@tommattie1240]

Quick backstory. Back in the day, armies had Heavy Calvary, and a Light Brigade. Heavy had horses in armor, heavy swords, and tons of protection. Light Brigade was no armor, light swords "Calvary Sabers", and built for speed to carve up the battle filed AFTER the infantry had beaten the enemy down. At the start of this battle, the wrong flag was displayed, and they called for the "Light Brigade" to charge at the onset. It was a complete mistake, but the soldiers never waivered, or questioned. They charged.... Charged, even though they knew they were charging into certain death!

[@LawsofFlow]

Hell ya!!!

[@andrewcarr4201]

My high school was divided,either you liked Led Zeppelin as your favorite or you liked Iron Maiden welp I was A hardcore Maiden fan!!! THis brought back so many memories glad you liked it

[@troywilkinson160]

Time for the Rime of the ancient Mariner studio and Hallowed be Thy. Name, live 1982

[@Kdog4660]

There is several meetings songs you could check out from number of the beast to two minutes to midnight.

[@Alfaqwad]

Rime of the ancient mariner -live flight 666 is amazing as well

[@delenasalvatore1778]

More Iron Maiden -Fear Of The Dark ( Live in Rio) - Run to the hills - The Number of the beast -Aces High -the Trooper

[@m.ericwatson968]

UP THE IRONS!

[@melissawinstead8848]

Oooo...ooo..oooo🤗 Are we going on a rock n roll adventure??? Yes please! 70's or 80's are the best. Here's some bands 4 ya to start with maybe? Led Zeppelin Black Sabbath Mega death Pantera Metallica Peace and love always until there is no more!😊❤ AOD 4 EVER

[@poledra1980]

Maiden are great! You should check out Iron Maiden’s Run To The Hills, and then check out the cover of the same song by Hellsongs. It’s amazing how the lyrics just feel different in the two versions! (But my fave guitar solo is in Aces High)

[@jason6848]

The story behind this song is really interesting, The light brigade were tasked with retrieving abandoned cannons and ended up with a frontal charge at a well equipped Russian artillery unit, the communications failed and the cavalry charged at the Russians which can only be described as stupidly, the Russian command assumed the British were all drunk but in reality it was absurd bravery and fear of what would happen to them if they deserted that pushed them forward. Interestingly even with it being the one of if not the most disastrous battle in British history the Light Brigade managed to inflict roughly the same amount of casualties on the Russians and earnt the respect of the Russian command which gave the British the mental edge in future conflict because it was thought the British are brave and insane!

[@Pyps0403]

Hallowed be thy name live 1982 next!!

[@lynette.]

The Poem is Alfed Lord Tenyson's Charge of the light Brigade.

[@radredmusic5865]

Gotta check out Rime of the Ancient Mariner! I like their Flight 666 live version. Also, Dance of Death is one of my favorite performances of Bruce’s (the En Vivo performance). Enjoy!

[@RaidShadowRipoff]

The first album I ever bought was Piece of mind by Maiden. I bought it for the cover art, had never heard them. And they changed my whole life. I’m 42 now and heavy metal has been the primary sound track of my life. Have been playing drums for 31 years. Tattooing professionally for 16 years. Maiden was playing the first time I got laid and when my first child was born. All because I bought That album.

[@russellphelps4497]

Glad to know it wasn't just me.

[@nickschiavulli693]

Up The Irons 🤘

[@johanschilt1086]

IRON MAIDEN!!!!!

[@user98xp]

I was wandering if the Sox hat was for baseball or hip hop. Respect either way.

[@sethgregorymusic]

This song was my introduction to Maiden when I was a teenager. A buddy of mine and I were guitar players and we dared each other to learn the solos. IM is such a great band and I’m not sure you could have started with a better one of their songs. All are great though!

[@Hellberch1]

As a Note the text bits are from the Poem "The Charge of the Light Brigade". I would seriously suggest getting the whole thing as it is very linked to this song (other places you'll have heard it quoted was the DS9 Episode: Sacrifice of Angels)

[@papasmurf4006]

Brother, welcome to the Maidenverse!!!! Listen to -Hallowed be Thy Name live, -Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner, from flight 666 or live after death, either one -Alexander the Great, studio version with lyrics -The Writing on the Wall, latest album released last year. That’ll get you started

[@mattsabath]

You definitely need to do the live versions of Fear Of The Dark and Hallowed Be Thy Name.
