IRON MAIDEN - Wasted Years (Acoustic Cover by MELANIE MAU & MARTIN SCHNELLA)

[@jamesgenovese8185]

Really really good. Lots of talent here.

[@MartinSchnella]

Thank you James :)

[@justindeas9053]

It’s November 2023, how am I just now seeing/hearing this? I’m blown away.

[@MartinSchnella]

Thank you Justin ist ☺️☺️☺️

[@HamsterSpanks]

I agree, we have been missing out. Fuckin' amazing!!!

[@aaronhemingway6886]

Wasted Years is one of those terrific songs that lends its self to being covered by lots of people. I’ve listened to probably about three dozen covers of Wasted Years from ‘no names’ all the way to ‘huge names’ and most of them are pretty good. Some of them are great! Melanie arrives, gently nods and politely moves to the front of the pack, and delivers arguably, one of the BEST covers of this song EVER !!!

[@MartinSchnella]

Aaron, thank you so much!! Wow! Your words are awesome! You make us so happy!! ❤️

[@jamesgenovese8185]

I tend to agree. Really well done. These musicians are top notch as well.

[@MartinSchnella]

There are so many covers of Wasted Years and most of them are actually really good. However, this is, in my humble opinion, the best. You really have brought out the lyricism and power of this incredible song. Many thanks.
