Hurm1t Reacts To Iron Maiden The Nomad

[@abdelouahabdebaba337]

Every album has its masterpiece, The Nomad is Brave New World's masterpiece. Great song and great reaction 👍

[@Teh3aZ]

How people say this is a bad song? I know a friend who says this is the best Iron Maiden song. Everyone has an opinion but to say this song is bad, this is bullshit not opinion.

[@metalmark1214]

Not a bad song, but for me not the best on this album. It's all about preference though.

[@aaro_koivisto25]

Great instrumentals, ruined by poor verse and chorus structures. Boring song.

[@aaronposteraro1986]

I cannot wait for the rock in Rio reactions. Please watch the videos along with the album. The crowd is insane.

[@celesteponce2261]

Yess, totally agree

[@ahmettahsinertas2652]

The nomad is a killer epic but wait for the closing song: The Thin Line Between Love and Hate. It includes crazy vocals and solos. It could be your new fav, too. The next song is Out of the Silent Planet, as usual a great one

[@DM-rc4yu]

After the Blood Brothers reaction I was convinced he would hate Thin Line but I'm not sure anymore now that he's gotten more used to the reuninon Maiden sound. Absolutely love that song.

[@mauricioalvarado2183]

This is one of those "hidden gems" from Maiden, plenty of them in their albums and not necessary the most played in concerts. Another great thing about one of my favorite bands. Up the Irons!!!

[@anthonyh1067]

This song is a masterpiece. Love the entire album, glad to own it.

[@LionMetalMusic-videochannel]

Out of The Silent Planet is another brilliant piece ! and single have amazing cover art made by Mark Wilkinson !!!

[@ANJIN79SAMMA]

That cover art is SICK!

[@dragonseye00]

Nomad is for me one of the greatest Iron Maiden songs, no matter what some haters may say. But also I'm a total fan of the albums somewhere in time and piece of mind, so I'm a weirdo I guess 🤣

[@erikverbove6351]

No you have got taste bro

[@Endru85x]

Are there people who hate this song for real? I need their adresses, quickly.

[@sumonjamal1653]

"The Nomad" has this Mediterranean/ North African music vibe that classic songs "Kashmir" (by Led Zeppelin) and 'Stargazer' (by Rainbow) had.

[@animoley8012]

The Eastern Riffs and solos were just sublime and unceasing on this. It’s one of those songs that transports you to another realm. One of their best and most original songs ever IMO. I hadn’t heard it for some time and I was thinking the thin line between love and hate was my favourite. But I think this actually may just edge it.

[@AMOLAD79]

It is a crime they never play this song live

[@ANJIN79SAMMA]

The mid section is so atmospheric! luv it!.......I FUCKING LOVE this album.

[@metalmark1214]

It was ripped off from another song from timestamp 6:04 t0 8:20 here.

[@JD.Knight]

Out of the silent planet is another one of my favourites from Nicko on the drums! The single bass pedal work is amazing

[@ettio]

The thin line is even better.

[@jimmytran5998]

Agreed , so underrated , it’s my favourite from Brave New World

[@metalmark1214]

Not for me, though the second half of that song is best. Title track, Dream of Mirrors and Out of the Silent Planet best for me. This and last song are good.

[@Lizard-of-Oz]

To me this is the best song of the album

[@1234567890196]

I really love this song I was upset that they didn’t play it live on the Brave New World Tour still upset now

[@thedepot7416]

Never been played live unfortunately

[@hulicesmendiola3098]

I only listened to this song this past weekend to start finishing Iron Maiden's discography because I have a bad habit of skipping songs and not finishing an album. It blew me away because it was so heavy and all guitarists went off and the band solo was some of their best written work. I'm still riding the high of this song and had to see your reaction and I was not disappointed lol

[@sergiodavila5269]

Definitely one of my favorite Dave Murray compositions…..also my favorite off this album 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽

[@tonitiittanen8424]

This is a great song, very underrated too. The next two songs are both masterpieces.

[@Tr1ton131]

The mid section of this track was imo respectfully taken from another song called Life’s Shadow by Beckett, it’d be pretty sick if you checked it out to see what the original track is as well as what part of it they used. Can’t wait for you to get to The Thin Line. Gonna be sick (Edit) forgot to also mention that there are some lyrics on Hallowed be Thy Name that were also ripped from the Beckett track

[@metalmark1214]

Yep, Steve and Dave paid 100K pound settlement for it.

[@buffwhiner]

Another one of these Maiden tracks that takes you on a journey,and fills you with pictures and emotions. An unbelievable piece of art

[@badmotorbreath5206]

The lyrics and atmosphere gives me the same feel as To Tame a Land… which as we know was about the novel Dune, so it would be awesome if one or both songs could be on the soundtrack for the movie sequel (modern version)!

[@Haggath]

Another unbelievable track, and definitely a contender for the best on the album. Personally there may be one more contender for best on the album which is The Thin Line Between Love and Hate, although Out of the Silent Planet is a banger as well. I think you mentioned in your live streams that you were gonna do Rock in Rio after this. One comment I saw, and definitely agree with, is that you must must must watch the videos that have the crowd, and not just the album cover videos. The crowd interaction/participation is insane! Love your reactions to these songs!

[@kengillis632]

BRILLIANT SONG

[@humbertogomez8036]

My favorite from brave new world album! As someone says before it transport you to the Middle East ! The solos and the riffs seemed to be made in the sands of the dessert

[@davidprag969]

If you love this song you have good taste ;)

[@robinsongrilli7227]

Gorgeous song!! Silent planet and thin line are 2 great songs either, each one with it’s particularity. Silent planet with some vintage vibe and thin line with prog vibe, like nomad. As I said, grand finale!!! 🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@skytari]

If you are able to watch the rock in rio concert, i would like to recommend a youtube user "HeavyMatterCulture". That channel has the best quality version of that concert on youtube. His upload of "The Wicker Man" also cuts out the intro "Arthurs farewell", which has some flashing lights fyi.. He has uploaded every song seperatly and here is the playlist: kzbin.info/aero/PLmCYMRaayLcwveDGPOdZf0eGMy4F1b4Xs If you do use this playlist, notice that between "Ghost of the navigator" and "Wrathchild", they play "Brave New World" put it was blocked by KZbin. You can find that video seperatly on Iron Maiden's own KZbin page.

[@GavP75]

My first album was X factor in ‘96, then the past albums, then picked up Bruce’s solo stuff and when it came out Virtual XI. When it was released Bruce and Adrian were rejoining I was excited for the next album. It did NOT disappoint, a fantastic reunion album.

[@egrsok9388]

But those solos - Smith, Gers, Murray (in that order) - SICK!

[@MetalRecoveryYT]

I really love this song and had fun watching you. The guitar solo was damn good.

[@stefanstock953]

Greetings and Love from Germany again. I just love this song. Because maiden shows that they remain true to their very own and typical maiden sound despite new, versatile changes. My first impression at that time was that "The Nomad" could have been a song from the "Powerslave" album. Stay safe, buddy and UP THE IRONS 666

[@rodrigopatriciamattos3436]

The hole album is fantastic… a masterpiece

[@badmotorbreath5206]

Hey Hurm1t, one of my favourites too, as I’ve said before. Like all great metal songs, you can’t help but nod your head along …irresistible!

[@kengillis632]

Amazing song

[@AC-cb1oe]

imo this song is the most "maiden" sounding song on this album. It brings me back to the epics from the 80's Alexander the great, mariner, to tame a land etc.. LOVE this song and its my favorite on this album

[@sammyingersoll8870]

OMG I was waiting for you to react to this one. It's easily one if you listen to it and keep it in a rotation you will like it more and more. I remember saying which one is this and what album over and over again on shuffle play. Now I know right away!

[@AdhamMGhaly]

When you said you doubt any songs on the album would be better than Dream of Mirrors I smiled 😃, because I knew you haven't listened to Nomad yet 😉

[@danw4490]

Another great song on a killer album! I actually forgot how epic this song is!

[@erikverbove6351]

Yeah after 8 years this was the song that hits me hard! Sweetspot

[@Noksivs]

This whole album is killer.

[@Nuppel]

You see, that's why I was looking forward to Friday. ^^ It's one of those songs where there isn't a fucking second that's boring or mediocre. You had to like it. Now I'm looking forward to Sunday. TTLBLAH is a song that the longer it goes the better it gets. Bruce is just great again in this song. But tomorrow will be nice too. 😁

[@DM-rc4yu]

One of the best on the album for sure. Next song, Out of the Silent planet is also very good. Technically a bit repetitive but there is musically enough going on and it doesn't drag out.

[@ΜιχαληςΠετριδης-ξ3γ]

Great reaction. 2nd best song off the album. Last track is the best imho

[@metalmark1214]

Not for me, though the second half of Thin Line Red Line is best. Title track, Dream of Mirrors and Out of the Silent Planet best for me. This and last song are good.

[@gandelfthegreat8856]

*ucking awsome song

[@richardnewbold6155]

I love this song🤘🤘🤘 certainly one of my top 3 songs on this album, will say again please react to there LIVE DVDS if your able to watch them, Please react to the Maiden England DVD it's incredible, Maiden at the height of there powers 🤘🤘🤘🇬🇧

[@bigredrocks2521]

Agreed. Another banger on the album but hey, as someone who as always been into prog rock and metal, I am slightly partial towards the longer tracks (that's not to say I don't like shorter songs though). Most mainstream music is usually at a run time between 3-4 minutes due to the artists being forced to make it that way from record execs so the songs get regular air time on mainstream radio stations. It's also because a large majority of the public are subjected to these shorter songs and therefore have grown accustomed to them being the norm. It ain't that way in a lot of the metal community though as they choose to not bend the knee and conform to those rules....or any rules really (unless they sell out for more cash). Anyway, the only reason I still prefer 'Dream of Mirrors' over this one is due to 'The Nomad' having the distinct similarity to the end of Beckett's song 'Life's Shadow' (as mentioned in some other comments) and 'Dream of Mirrors' therefore being a little more unique. It's not the first time Maiden was taken to court for plagiarism as i believe it also actually happened with 'Hallowed Be Thy Name'. Look mate, if you are actually enjoying some of the longer tracks now, that's great as going back a bit, you had a concern about them and stated that you're not really a big fan of lengthy songs due to the possible repetition and you know what, that's fair enough. I think as you keep travelling along your rock and metal journey you will grow to definitely appreciate the longer compositions a lot more. I can't remember how much Tool you've checked out but for me, that would be another band I would recommend doing chonologically as they also get more proggy through their evolution and it totally works. In my opnion, Iron Maiden and Tool would have to be two of the best bands I've ever seen live and I've seen a lot. Metallica and AC/DC are also not too far behind. 😉

[@michgamingid2444]

Out of the silent planet next! I recommend you to react the official video version

[@vvlado9945]

My favorite song from my favorite album!

[@Rocktraffic]

💎💎💎💎💎

[@andysilvamoreira641]

Fav song from this very special album to me. I remember when it came out and it was my least favorite. With time it just became one of the biggest epics from Iron Maiden. The second best instrumental after Alexander the Great.

[@Dudouh]

This song is EPIC! The melody is awesome!!!!

[@andyreid6826]

Agreed. This song kicks ass!!!

[@reginaldopasserojunior5838]

I love this song!

[@neilbrazenell3438]

Personally I think this is the most authentic iron maiden song since the somewhere in time album, maiden through and through.

[@helgaratbone1691]

The lyrics are a little cheesy. I could do with a different synth sound later in the song. Too much Loverboy or Striper sounding. But damn this song rocks!! I dig it! I really like them guitar leads!

[@alexandre_am]

10:55 I think that'll change at the last song

[@IanPotts-lv6os]

Yep you said it if you don't like this your not an Iron Maiden fan really

[@silvertonguesings]

Yeah, Hurm! You're right, this song is awesome and my fave on the album!!!

[@ricardoleony]

Iron maiden is a fucking voyaje

[@troywilkinson160]

It’s a good song. It’s better than Blood Brothers! Oops I said that out loud. Up the Irons.

[@balroggameplays8576]

This song is underrrated, it is my fav from the album

[@aa7830]

Nice song as a whole, although never liked the middle eastern motives, I think it's just overused. The biggest problem is that the instrumental part as it turned out, is not necessarily their own and was "borrowed" from another band, even went to court because of it. Anyway, that part is nice indeed. The inspiration came from here, which is a bloody good song on its own: kzbin.info/www/bejne/noWlnn-jjt9pd5I

[@metalmark1214]

Yep, Becket Life's Shadow, but I'd call it ripped off, Harris and Murray paid a $100k settlement for that and "borrowing" verses for Hallowed By Thy Name.

[@metalmark1214]

It's good song. I like the middle Eastern sound it has, like a Powerslave had an Egyptian sound to it. It was pointed out to me that Iron Maiden ripped off a Beckett song "Life Shadows" for the instrument portion and a couple verses in Hallowed Be Thy Name and paid a $100k settlement out of court. (See Iron Maiden Settles Hallowed Be Thy Name Lawsuit on Loudwire website. The ripoff sound from Beckett song starts at 6:04 here to 8:20. Funny Hurm like the part that was the ripped off part, lol. Still like the title track and Dream of Mirrors best along with Out of the Silent Planet for this album. Give this one an 8/10.

[@helgaratbone1691]

The Parchment also has that middle eastern feel. I absolutely love the guitar leads on all of them! Its a modulation that fits perfect for their sound and play-styles!

[@jingtroc23]

I have had unpopular opinions on your other videos but i'll stand by it and say it again, dude, there's a group of Maiden fans that have really bad taste in Maiden songs. When i first heard this album this was a highlight for me, reminded me of old school Maiden. They have a song called Empire of Clouds, to me it's awful, boring, but these same Nomad disliking people call Empire of Clouds a master piece, maybe you will like it, to me it's a very boring song, worst on the album. edit: just see you mention also about it being like old Maiden, and that's the thing, a lot of Maiden fans started to prefer the boring lame stuff with really slow boring riffs, wait til you get to Book of souls album, awful lol yet they absolutely looooove it

[@DM-rc4yu]

Don't you think it's kinda ironic that you speak of people with "bad taste in Maiden songs" but then say Empire is an awful, boring song which along with the entire Book of Souls album only "they" like? Because "they" in this case would be the majority. Most Maiden fans like or at least not dislike Empire of the Clouds so you're basically saying most fans have really bad taste and you don't.
