ABOUT IRON MAIDEN:
Iron Maiden are an institution. Over the course of six decades they have come to embody a spirit of fearless creative independence, ferocious dedication to their fans, and a cheerful indifference to their critics that’s won them a following that spans every culture, generation, and time-zone. A story of gritty determination and courageous defiance of the naysayers, theirs has been an adventure like no other.
The band’s immense discography includes the studio albums ‘The Number Of The Beast’, ‘Piece Of Mind’, ‘Powerslave, ‘Somewhere In Time’, ‘Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son’, ‘Fear Of The Dark’, ‘The Final Frontier’ and ‘The Book Of Souls’ which have spawned many classic hits as ‘The Trooper’, ‘Wasted Years’, ‘Hallowed Be Thy Name’, ‘Wasting Love’, ‘Run To The Hills’, ‘Aces High’, ‘Rime Of The Ancient Mariner’ and ‘2 Minutes to Midnight’.

[@poman1976]

One of the greatest riffs in world history. Still get chills.

[@crodriguez2360]

Yup and it does give you the chills. Amazing.

[@colbs237]

Me too bro!

[@UnknownHumanOnline]

And the bass... God

[@catfishunter1000]

This era was the best that music has ever had to offer.

[@TheKINGandJOKER]

+Jeff _ 1988

[@Jesestender]

+Jeff _ I was thinking now just the same

[@calebproductions5970]

Absolutely also it seemed to me that after the 80s music stopped progressing now it is regressing as far is popular music goes

[@eblizzard2842]

Casual music fans, always so lazy and waxing nostalgic

[@guitarraenlineamx]

youre living on the golden years

[@fasteddie4435]

Saw them when I was a teenager. First row. When this song started my eyes were tearing and I didn't know it. Bruce noticed, and screamed in my face. Righteous and Priceless. Priceless

[@hamdelsun68]

I saw them at The Fox Theatre in Atlanta in '88. It was FABULOUS! As a Native Atlantan, familiar with the struggle to keep The Fox from becoming a parking lot, I loved the reverence with which Bruce spoke of The Fox❤❤❤

[@niklasandersson3478]

1988.....That was not the wasted years for me, it was the golden years. Best band ever.......

[@johnniec2861]

Start of my Senior yr in HS :) ,, not wasted at all

[@fasteddie4435]

Now that I'm old, the lyrics take on a different meaning. I'm in my golden years, and I'm glad I fell in love with Heavy Metal. 🤘

[@garymurphy8703]

Me too it's October 11 2024 8 days before my 62ed birthday and still loving it

[@ives3572]

So understand, don't waste your time always searching for those wasted years Face up, make your stand and realize you're living in the golden years LONG LIVE IRON MAIDEN, UP THE IRONS!🤘🤘⚡⚡💥💥🔥🔥

[@jaquelinerocha2586]

Love this eternal❤️❤️❤️

[@diegohenrique5756]

This song is a masterpiece of rock history

[@HappyMealGiel]

Video and audio is unreal for 1988! thank goodness for all the genius people that captured these bands in their prime.

[@nishant8741]

Joe Giel this is good but you must check out the early videos of AC DC with Bon Scott from early 1979 or so......it's in much clear quality

[@AFABIANO1]

Steve Harris fantastic on bass... And Adrian amazing on guitar!!!

[@v1niciusrodrigues]

And on backing vocals too

[@_fantasticscenes]

Alot of people dont like the synth era of maiden but imo somewhere in time and seventh son have some of the best and most melodic songs.

[@Rowlph8888]

I think somewhere in time iis the best ever metal album and I'm not alone

[@alejandromarinetti8622]

You are right. Love these albums especially seventh son. That album is perfect

[@angriffangriff]

Best Song ever...it changed my Life

[@srpdesigns]

If you've never seen Maiden in concert you're missing out on one of the greatest live acts to ever go on tour.!! 💯

[@welshie6313]

I took my ten year old son to watch them two years ago (to his first concert) and he loved every moment. When they played "Run to the Hills", he went berserk because he had the t-shirt on :) What was amazing was the number of parents who had kids there. I'm almost 50 now and been a maiden fan for around 40 years myself, so it was great to see another generation getting into them. Up the irons!

[@srpdesigns]

@@welshie6313 Thanks for that story Brotha.. Love hearing things like this.. Yeah I saw my 1st Maiden show @ The New Haven Coliseum back in like 85 and believe it or not I STILL have the concert shirt somewhere!!.The Powerslave Tour.. There was nothing like going to that old smoke filled venue to see a show bck in the 80s... Sounds like you and your son made some great memories My Brotha.... Good Stuff!!!.. UP THE IRONS!!!!

[@welshie6313]

@@srpdesigns Oh man, the Powerslave tour was phenomenal! Live After Death is still my favorite live album of all time. I always remember listening to Bruce shouting, "Scream for me Long Beach" and I was wondering where this place was (I'm from Wales). Little did I know I would end up living a few miles up the road! lol But yeah, it was an amazing gig to take my son to. He loved the whole atmosphere and what's amazing about a metal gig is that everyone treats others well. The guy next to us was over the moon that my son was having the time of his life and it's always just an amazing and friendly atmosphere.

[@eaglewildeye]

CHEERS FOR WASTED YEARS - UP THE IRONS.. QUITE EASILY THE GREATEST AND PROLIFIC HEAVY METAL BAND OF ALL TIME.. PERIOD.

[@janborrowitz]

you must be talkin probably about Judas Priest, but I.M is great as well :¨)

[@stevenresxcbn4031]

Musica_aeon 😍😎😎

[@flowerfloc]

janborrowitz Judas priest fucking sucks

[@beanman9644]

@@flowerfloc that's your opinion but you should realize that judas priest influenced a ton of metal bands including iron maiden

[@MichaelHolmgaard]

Bruce sounds really good in this concert! That's why I think this DVD is so special. After having lost a bit of range, Bruce developed a new technique so he could sing the high notes. Made his voice sound so unique, compared to other tours. The power and volume he had in his voice back then... what a singer 😱

[@RookiesdelBillar]

Aqui si cantaba bien, luego empezo a perder voz, la verdad, y ahora canta de otra forma que tampoco esta mal, pero no es igual.

[@thomasdeleon274]

thats a real singer a real musician

[@rockettare90]

Could you write me the name of the DVD? I wold like to buy it... I always watch it on you tube

[@rockettare90]

Thank you

[@dottielott2303]

Bruhh... they sound AMAZING live

[@opengnosis8555]

How that drummer kept that timing so perfect, when it was constantly, faster or slower, without messing up all his hits once! Awesome!

[@saedt]

Seeing Nicko's face fills me with pure joy

[@tomvanthienen3716]

I grew up with maiden...Back in the years Always will and Always do...i have a place for maiden in my heart as long as i will be alive. I still get that special feeling when i hear it...

[@djek1976]

Helemaal mee eens!

[@paulkelcher824]

Knowing Adrian thought the songs were played too fast on this tour, he deliberately starts this quite slow, and then it speeds up as soon as the band join in......

[@cstepaniuk8611]

Tempo drops when he starts the main riff again

[@HansCruse]

People these days will never know, this band was the last 5 man real musicians and story tellers on a stage that could tell a play or an opera, or a simple song, that will ever appear. Its done, I don't think there will ever be another like them. I pray for us. Up the Irons!

[@alphacause]

I pity the people who have never had the chance to listen to the intro/main riff from Iron Maiden's Wasted Years. A life that has never been exposed to this exhilarating piece of guitar genius is a life of wasted years.

[@crodriguez2360]

lol

[@spaulson5938]

Sweet take, One of the buzzillion kick-ass Maiden strokes of genius. Bruce sounds like doo-doo on the chorus, makin it tough for Adrian to sing in tune. Also very interesting how they slow down for the classic open E ditty whenever it comes up, I wonder why. Everyone's a critic. Seen this band more times than any other, NOBODY can fuck with Maiden. Spent some of the best wasted years of my life worshipping these guys.

[@marcelo8442]

This is the Iron Maiden in their perfect shape.

[@mikepineda4713]

That's a great song I like the pic back of Nicko`s drum and stage of clouds Its amazing the energy

[@luiscarlosdelossantos7240]

Desde mi punto de vista: los mas grandes de todos los tiempos. Grossos !!!!

One of my favourite bands to watch live. Sounds Studio Quality.

Thank you very much GOD bless Everyone Philadelphia USA 🇺🇸 Nostrovia ❤❤❤

[@mikepineda4713]

i love the clouds on the background is perfect for the song really in personal i think 86-88 was 2 years with a energy so high for the band example 86 was the first experimentation with keyboards and 88 was the top

[@rick_fortune]

Killer riff. One of the greats. Plus probably my fave Maiden solo too.

[@canadaisthebest4802]

Bruce Dickinson is awesome the best Metal vocalist

[@toniomiklo2406]

Not true, c'mon, that's fanboyism. What about Rob Halford.

[@Trailmixmascot]

One of my favourite songs by epic Iron Maiden!!! haven't listened to the song in a few years because I've shredded this song on my guitar everyday.

[@PEDROCLASSIC]

This is Maiden at their finest hour. Two years before this was SOMEWHERE IN TIME, An epic album!!! BRAVE NEW WORLD came pretty close too. Hats off to STEVE HARRIS the boss!!

[@metalhead2w]

Without Iron Maiden and Black Sabbath there would be no Metallica. Great song! \m/

[@harvestblades]

Whike this song has been a favorite since it & the video was released in '86 this song now has such significance to me as a 45 year old father of nine & husband of 26 years. Isnt it funny how it is that this song has become so much more powerful the more I can relate to it?! Up the Irons!

[@marieprovencio288]

My favorite song here!!!! And yes especially 4 me personally. Thank you guys for it!!!!

England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 88 is for me the best concert and live album 💿 of Maiden what else can be said about playing the Seventh Son album live

[@buzzcrushtrendkill]

Wow, they were really amped up. The speed they play this song shows how much adrenaline is going through them.

[@Carlos-yz6ph]

In my opinion this is the Best concert Iron Maiden offered, really awesome with their performance in their pick.

[@vig1300]

He wrote that you should like if you are proud when you see that the guitarist's wearing a T-shirt with a subtitle of a hungarian rock band called Ossian. It's very good to see (if you are from Hungary :D ) that the IRON MAIDEN's guitarist's wearing a hungarian band's T-shirt.. ;)

[@tonyagto]

Finally! VEVO with good music! Up the Irons!

what a paradox. the cover of the single WASTED YEARS can be displayed on the third date of the time machine RETRO 27.06.1999. It was precisely that year that Bruce Dickinson returned to Maiden after his separation in 1993
