[@BenjaminWoods]

Another great arrangement, playing and video! I'm going down the Thomas Zwijsen rabbit hole today. It's dark, hairy and moist in here

[@harryvenema8038]

Geweldig dit. Awesome cooperation there💪

[@jasondowling817]

This was made for you Thomas, I'm a bit late to the table but just did a quick search to see if you had done it. Great extended interpretation from both of you. 👏👏👏👏👏

[@Leio.K]

Thank you so much for this ❤️

[@ironsteve666]

This outro makes me to cry. It's so beatiful... I think about my brother, who dies to young last year...rip rainer

[@YalnArat-ez9ft]

Im 53 yrs old and still icant hear any better ending melody like this❤❤❤

[@ΜιχαληςΠετριδης-ξ3γ]

This outro finally gets what it deserves. Very nice!!!

[@agtsp4144]

I was waiting 33 years for this outro! Thank you very much Thomas 😊🙏

[@emanuel_soundtrack]

i waited 33 years to end ;)

[@robertomartins4787]

Me too!! This is awesome! 😁

[@homoerot03]

:D

[@sec1720]

You feel this in your soul… music evokes so many emotions it’s insane

[@harryvenema8038]

That definatly stopped too soon😄

[@Selrahc_69]

My sincerest hope is that the members of Iron Maiden get to hear this. Up the Irons!

[@rwhelan08]

Probably one of the most hauntingly sad & beautiful melodies that I've ever heard on guitar

[@israelcruz7254]

Man, I'm 18 years old and I'm a musician and after listening to this album this song touched my heart a lot because I play the guitar, I'm young but I understand the magnificence of the band. A hug from Brazil🇧🇷

[@abyss696]

Thomas shredding his guitar like a god with one of the best Maiden songs ever while the dogs are having the time or their lives in the background...this must be one of the greatest videos on youtube!

[@stormdenz06]

I always imagined what the prophecy would sound like if it was developed more and that was perfect incredibly beautiful, excellent

[@שמוליקטנה]

10 minutes cover for a 5 minutes song!!! Thats so awesome

[@ginocavalieri6121]

Seventh son was the first maiden album I bought, every song on that album has a special place in my heart and you have given me great joy in doing a cover of this song. I enjoy all of your songs.

[@octagoloaner]

Me too exect I didn't buy my own copy my friend from school loaned his Iit was on cassette and had full colour booklet which folded out from behind IronMaiden cover image , I remembering wishing the school siren would sound sooner so I get home and absorb the detailed artwork inside those pages ( album cover Eddie included ) the images and music seemed bind together forming into a kind of 3D audio/visual experience that ingrained apon me deeply at that impressionable age of early adolescent ,those wore the good old days when life wasn't as complicated.

[@sanijadresko8539]

Seventh son e Somwhere in time ai tempi non erano tanto considerati dai fan perche escono dai standard dei album precedenti,dal altra parte,dalla band sono considerati musicalmente i migliori album

[@0rionknight636]

Infinite dreams

[@nicolasm691]

Medieval vibes! One of their most underappreciated gems! Very well done Thomas!

[@megamillionfreak]

The genius and good nature of Dave Murray.

[@NickKouls]

That was magical beyond words..!!

[@cristianmattia78]

A truly complex song, masterfully interpreted by your immense talent. Nothing else to add .... just applause

[@vesaparkkonen4279]

I remember seventh son when I bought it,one of the best records,still gives chills

[@Brigand231]

This is hauntingly beautiful.

[@konstandin28]

I guess it wasn't only me that felt that beautiful outro was too short to fully enjoy... CONGRATS!!

[@Charles-yz4lw]

what a beautiful youth we had

[@beastwishes]

Without question, this is the best thing you've ever done. I keep coming back to it.

[@TonyNaber]

Beautiful arrangement, beautiful photography, and that violin takes the outro to another level!

[@scottj.671]

This is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard.

[@biorythmicshifter]

Even as an 12 year kid I was absolutely enchanted by this song when it came out. I knew nothing of how to play guitar but I was drawn in particular to the acoustic playing on this song. I love it just as much to this day as an adult. Still remains one of my top favorite Maiden songs. The rendition is absolutely gorgeous. Compliments to the chef… bravo!

[@mitkonedyalkov3048]

Thomas, You have outdone yourself with this piece. Bravo!

[@Douglasdrysdale182y]

Thomas, you are brilliant. Words cannot describe the immense joy I get from listening to you. Thank you so much.

[@kemprock4155]

What I didn't like about this song was the ending too short. Tom granted my wishes 33 years later. Thanks, outrageously beautiful.

[@k1000du91]

Underrated song, awesome cover

[@BenjaminWoods]

Beautiful!

[@tasomusictv7345]

Maiden is magical

[@partizansevoli7062]

This outro on prophecy has always been something best in music that l ever heard... And l was waiting for you to come with your version and you did it just as I expect..And it’s even better...It is whole new level...This is a song for any occasion..Wedding or funeral..When you are sad or happy..What can l say my friend...I ’ve been listening this song for a two days,and l just can get enough!Thank you my friend..Hope to see you on the road with nylon Maiden!!!Up the Nylons!!!🤘👏👍

[@valeriodefelice9737]

One of the best outro of all times...thanks Thomas

[@declanfitzpatrick8268]

Dude! This is brilliant, but you were still overshadowed by the two awesome dogs

[@darrenoconnell2891]

One of the most underrated songs on the the album but elevated to its true status by Thomas.

[@AndyTheRoo]

I have got chills listening to that extended outro. Well done Thomas (and Wiki!)

[@tomaszm715]

It’s magical , so beautiful . Bravo 👏 👏👏

[@josephzach8617]

We are grateful for 60% of Senjutsu thus far! Thanks for including your beautiful vocalists.

[@talismanmia2537]

Not sure how I missed this one. Wonderful. Beautiful. This is what a cover should sound and feel like. I was waiting for the strings and so happy to see they arrived. Outstanding.

[@FranciscoSantos-ti6nt]

TWO THUMBS UP !!! I must confess I was scared during the whole video thinking that the dogs could spoil it all

[@addersforkaustria]

Perhaps Thomas' best rendition? Phenomenal, at least.

[@michaelovalles1573]

This is just magic. Always thought the original outro was unfinished and you have magically interpreted it so how tears of joy, nostalgia and bliss are flowing. Just like understanding what comes after death, you have unveiled an unfinished story from Maiden. Forever grateful for your talent Maestro.

[@ofermashiach4519]

My favorite Iron Maiden song.

[@88them]

this is not possible, are you from another planet? or is it a magician? fantastic 👏👏👏

[@wipeandcareestofos8576]

I'm with goosebumps in my arm, like the first time that I've listened the Prophecy when I'm 15 years old. Wonderful! Thank you so much for this masterpiece!

[@DANILOAQUARISMOJUMBOBRASIL]

Obra prima!!!

[@sivadepilif]

True art has no boundaries!

[@davidebasile9422]

I liked when you turned the closing melody to a major harmony, similar to many classical songs. Bravo!

[@osama81m77]

The outro is my favourite part of this song (the prophecy) and you Mr. Thomas did a great work to extend it with a creativity way. Bravo

[@juanneman]

Thanks a lot Thomas the rendition is incredible, the ending still gives the goosebumps after almost 40 years, this is the reason why Maiden will always be my faves.

[@AngryCalvin]

I enjoy it even more with the calibration of the violinist. It makes up for the twin lead and puts the old picture in a whole new frame.

[@partizansevoli7062]

Bravooooo 🤘🤘🤘🤘Greeetings from Serbia

[@evgeniywoods947]

Супер! Большое спасибо! Замечательное исполнение и пейзажи! И моя любимая музыка)

[@dannyf8198]

A classic Maiden song, from a classic Maiden album.

[@michaelkuhn7432]

Love the beauty of this version. It shows a lot of love to the original from IM. Very unique outro indeed. ❤ Up the irons!

[@jimmymorrison8314]

Absolutely beautiful. I've never listened to the prophecy and not wished for the outro to go on for days. Thank you.

[@kalillage]

sensational, I was traveling through time and thinking how beautiful Wiki's violin would look in the melody, and suddenly she appeared ❤️ Congratulations Thomas, beautiful dogs

[@natmankelow7132]

Beautiful Thomas...and the realisation IM songs are old folk songs played at volume 11 of course!

[@Chaty17]

Wuao ! This is amazing ! The Glory !

[@davidediamanti1844]

Excellent version of The prophecy and beautiful dogs

[@tomsmall2273]

So far beyond beautiful

[@kmully8873]

Who among us, didn't REW the tape or pull the needle back over and over to repeat the outro of this song?! Great work.

[@BurningCircleSerbia]

Mesmerizing!!!

[@roger26714]

That was beautiful!

[@csnymoodiesfan]

Thanks for your beautiful interpretation of this marvelous song! Can’t wait to see them in Sept. performing their new songs. Up the irons!

[@elisilvera2874]

[@AndrewSmith_Music]

Such an amazing version! The outro of this song is so beautiful. Perfection!

[@SniperSam]

Nice piece rendition! I was expecting Frodo and Sam to come running down the hill of the backdrop

[@jasongeorgeson8551]

Fucking awesome. Life long maiden fan here.this is what this song would sound like if it was on a Bruce Dickinson album. Totally love this dude thank you

[@CesarRicardoMoreira]

A primeira música que gostei do Iron após mais de ano de resistência! Devia ter uns 14 anos quando me deparei com essa canção. Já tinha gostado do andamento dessa canção, mas quando chegou em sua parte acústica final, me senti arrebatado. Parabéns pela apresentação e obrigado por compartilhar!

[@0606stratovarius]

Resistência, por quê?

[@CesarRicardoMoreira]

@@0606stratovarius , acredite se quiser, mas não gostava do estilo de vocal do Bruce Dickinson! 🤦‍♂️ Mas "consertei o corpo" a tempo e hoje é minha banda preferida!! Grande abraço!!

[@Vikzvv]

The best of the best! 😀🎶🥰

[@inamrasluzd6524]

My gosh this is truly and amazingly beautiful to the max! I have always loved the Seventh Son album, particularly The Prophecy and its outro. You gave it so much life and character to an already awesome composition, it's like a portal to medieval England.

[@lucianoferreira8903]

Your dogs are the best!

[@sanijadresko8539]

Wooooww....this is a melody of my childhood...i sang this outro to sleeping my sons many times!To much memories...of one summer in 1988 Thank you so much!Up the Irons!!!

[@comequandofuoripicch]

One of the most inspiring video I saw in Yt thanks !! Guitar, Viola, nature, dogs...celtic music (Iron M) doesn't need more..!

[@KevinSmith-zb5sd]

Brilliant Thomas 👍

[@juanluislaurasanchez8019]

Ese final es una obra maestra de Maiden. Amo esa banda, la más grande de todas.

[@aetherion7]

Somewhere in Time is my favorite album by them, but this song is my favorite of this album. Such nostalgia, the tears are flowing hearing this beautiful cover, along with that violin as well.

[@attilahorvath6153]

Csodálatos,fantasztikus és leírhatatlan!A tudásod földönkívüli!Elsírtam magam miközben hallgattam annyira csodálatos!!!
