The Longest Day and Legacy by Iron Maiden / Performed by Kids!

[@IronMitchie1138]

as a long time Maiden fan , i prefer this version ....its epic

[@stooge8111]

All these years later, and I have to watch this at least once a week.

[@foreverisu2002]

That drummer.....crazy!!!!!

[@aussernllc]

He's a monster. Easily a Keith Moon, Nick Menza, or Nico Mcbrain. Very solid drums.

[@oz7aei]

She sings like an angel. Wish those who fall The Longest day could hear her.

[@Hendrix1326]

Wow, that girl's voice makes me cry, such amazing soul, no words can describe the esoterics, just beautiful projection.

[@danisibaja]

Parenting.....you're doing it right!!!!!

[@woodyjon1]

My god I could listen to her voice all day forever

[@penoyer79]

This is nothing... check out her O'Keefe grand finale... kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYqoiZiNbpmta6M

[@davehurt6853]

kayla has an amazing voice!

[@sidi2aasaa545]

Why not just get a kid and teach her to sing

[@mikeclemens795]

All the students are phenomenal, but I simply can't get over the talent that young lady has. Her voice is powerful, haunting, soulful... They'll all go FAR.

[@sanctusrimoradv]

Best cover of any Maiden song. Ever.

[@jonathanvilla7280]

The OMF cover of number of the beast. That kid nailed Bruce's voice and control.

[@claushansen9038]

That girls voice

[@ApolloKnowsAll]

the day before a history exam on alexander the great in HS I listened to the song over and over and over again while at a track meet. I got an A "His troops finally decided they would not follow him into which country?" ... I was singing "they didn't follow him in to IN DEE UH" as I was writing the answer haha!

[@sejlefrew]

6:16 gives me goosebumps

[@sidi2aasaa545]

2:45 gives me goose bumps

[@JohnH1220]

I love Iron Maiden, it is best band ever. But these kids are really awesome. Specially the girl and drummer. Her voice is amazing, she's a god. UP THE IRONS!!!

[@paulsolem173]

Overheard argument: "I told you to wear the nice clothes! I don't want people thinking you were raised in a sty!" "But mom, it's an iron maiden cover." "I don't know what that means. Here's your drum sticks sweetie." And great job on the drums sir. Maiden time changes are nothing to be scoffed at.

[@WreckDiver99]

Notice that Curtis during this time did most of the tough ones. Maiden, Tool and Dream Theater. All of those move time signatures like a woman changes her mind. I think DT averags about 18 to 20 changes per song, and some of them have over 50...and into time signatures like 17/8. Mike Portnoy said they have some that are like 23/16...and worse. LOL

[@thompsonmike8629]

Andres, the singer's name is Kala. She is definately a superstar in the making. I hope she makes another song soon but you can not rush success I guess.

[@RetroWaveDave84]

Love the Eddie mask! And that little girl singing is just amazing-all those kids are.

[@rogersrv6615]

More and more kids like this in our planet earth...

[@KevanRice]

Its ezy by your son a uitar 6our girl a kariokie machine big s5erio loud music is good for rhem

[@gparadis01]

Kala is simply a star in the making. Amazing talent !

[@leebrady6326]

2024 and still watching this great cover..

[@katjones7197]

i first heard this around 12 but then i lost the song after getting a new phone, im so happy to have found this again after so many years

[@4x4dually]

I think this girl wins the vocal contest out of all these videos. Just....plain....WOW.

[@sleeplessingc]

do not underestimate some ones focus, drive, determination, and courage merely based on their age. Bravo kids..Well done!

[@Deicide1985]

OH THAT'S AWESOME!!!, Love the Eddy mask at the end.

[@jayhouse3149]

World Class Kids with Out of This World Talent!

[@katapo777]

IM IN LOVE WITH HER VOICE

[@PeTTs0n88]

So much talent overall, but the singer, Kala... her voice is nothing short of amazing, gives me goosebumps for every song she sings - if the rock/metal world is blessed with her vocals now and in the future, I can then die a happy man.

[@jeffcascino9802]

Mr. Okeefe I do not know how you are doing this but it is great. Song after song and kid after kid at all ages just rock. What is in the water in that town. I can not get enough, I spend hours playing the videos you have made. I am a 48 year old male and just can not get enough. If you like this also check out Jordan by Buckhead. The little dude playing the drums is out of his mind.

[@attilabagocsi6339]

Awesome, great students and Kala´s voice is beautyfull!

[@brianthomas5260]

11 year old girl...singing IRON freaking MAIDEN!!!!! That is absolutely beautiful!! The beauty of Iron Maiden is that their songs are mostly based on books, movies and history (and of some fiction). Iron Maiden was my favorite band. Didn't like where they going after Seventh Son and didn't hear another song from them for 20 years. Then I heard this and I loved it. Made me check out what album this song was from and that led me to A Matter of Life and Death. I tell you what. That album should have be after Powerslave. Maiden was reborn in me after 20 years. So thank you kids for that. The kids' other Maiden covers are equally impressive. Ghosts of the Navigator (another song I had not heard) and Number of the beast (that kid screaming is awesome and now he is one of the guitarist in quite a few of the other videos). I would like to give you (Mr. O'Keefe) a few Iron Maiden songs for future consideration: Sea of Madness, Hallowed be the Name, Revelations, Children of the Damned, The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner, Alexander the Great, Powerslave, The Prowler, 22 Acacia Ave. (probably not appropriate), Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Ghengis Khan, To Tame A Land, Total Eclipse, Remember Tomorrow, Still Life, Quest For Fire, and so many more.Basically anything on the first 6 albums. Iron Maiden Rules (or at least they did)

[@ajsatsanreverof]

+Brian Thomas I think you should listen to Mainden's last albums, I agree that X factor, virtual XI, No prayer for the dying tc were not such great albums but withe brave new world, dance od death et most recently the book of souls, they really did an awesome job! These albums are fantastic! I likethem just as much as their first ones. Sure the style is a bit different but every group evolves and in my opinion Maiden did in an awesome way :)

[@Slydecki]

+julien H I couldn't agree more. BNW, DOD, and BOS brought back some old maiden. I'm seeing them in Vegas on 2/28 UP THE IRONS.

[@Image-X]

Brian, you’re no real Maiden fan. You just like classic Maiden and are completely oblivious that some of the best stuff they’ve ever done was done in the 21st century. Go back to the 80s. 🙄

[@brianthomas5260]

@@Image-X I’m not a fan? Did I not say I didn’t listen to them for twenty years. Sorry but when all they made was masterpiece after masterpiece and then they put out lackluster albums “no prayer for the dying” and “fear of the dark”. You start to lose interest. Then they make an album without Bruce? Wouldn’t even listen to it. If only “Brave New World” could have followed “Seventh Son of a Seventh Son”.....Don’t get me started on this “new” 3rd guitarist. Been in the band for what 25 years? What has he contributed? I’m just kidding. Anyways I’m still listening to them. If I’m not a fan in your eyes whatever. I just hold them to a higher standard.

[@Image-X]

@@brianthomas5260 I know you said you were kidding but guys like you that call Janice Gers “the new guy” or whatever just shows that all you really know is early classic Maiden. He has been a guitarist and contributing member in Iron Maiden for thirty-one years now. THIRTY-ONE years! Some of the best work they have ever done is from years 2000 and later..... by far. A real Maiden fan would be well aware of this.

[@jrc4139]

Great cover! Love the drummer wearing a button up shirt and tie and rocking Maiden!!

[@AiBusinessConsulting]

I can't stop watching these covers. The future of mankind is looking brighter with kids like these making great music like this.

[@MasterTapes1960]

Fact : There's a history lesson in every Iron Maiden song

[@WreckDiver99]

Sabaton followed suit...LOTS of history in their songs as well.

[@tonycerino1736]

My teacher called them Satanists and I had to show her that. She was impressed

[@stixglass8442]

Or Literary, but same point! Best comment I've seen in a bit. Cheers!

[@tealeaflist]

Fact: I'd really Dig flying to London. On Cpt Bruce Dickinson's 747...

[@toecutter4335]

Deep thinkers, are they?

[@Mars-fz5tm]

I am dead serious, this is no joke, every time I listen to these two songs, my eyes fill with tears, I get goosebumps, I even shiver a little, and I am filled with exhilaration, well maybe not EVERYTIME, but it has happened more than twice. I would sell my soul just to come CLOSE to the O'keefe Music Foundation. This is worth anything and everything. OMF FOREVER!!!

[@MartinKincl1993]

Someone's been watching too much School of Rock! :D Excellent job!

[@brandonfreeman377]

its good to see kids that have an interest in IRON MAIDEN rock little dudes and dudettes

[@ArjanMeijer-HIT]

awesome, you guys and especially girl did a great job.

[@yubinunderok9229]

Kala's voice is addictive. I love all her songs. Please do more!!!!

[@penoyer79]

Here you go... get ready to have your face melted kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYqoiZiNbpmta6M

[@jerrywarren7446]

[@sardoniclysane]

[@robparks8886]

[@yappyapadoo]

[@ninjaskillzz]

[@coveringthebeast]

wonderful... in love with the singer!

[@Quinn-Craft]

I would give TEN times for that little girl's autograph what I would give for ANY living musician's! She's got talent. I can't wait to see where her career takes her.

[@KingRealRock]

Its incredible how a kid could interpret so well these songs about the horrors of war

[@Dfisherhouseproductions]

Talk about "School of Rock" You are awesome for teaching these kids classic metal songs. They should get a record deal.

[@01svtlightning]

Wow she is awesome for her age and the drummer is great as well!!! Lets hear her sing some flyleaf!!

[@Endersgamejp]

01svtlightning yeah flyleaf

[@mikezimmerman9547]

wow. Just wow. Thanks for sharing!

[@bimmerbent]

As a long time Fan of this channel, Can't believe this is the first time hearing this.

[@bobbigbobvub5142]

Aaron...take these artists on the road for a concert tour!! I want to be the first to buy a ticket!!

[@mcqueenx75]

When I have kids and they wanna enroll into music classes, I will cheer them on! I hope they have a teacher like him!

[@brianguillory7577]

this girl can sing anything..amazing!

[@ALIg7655]

Just awesome...love watching these vids...

[@AYURBHATTA]

Aww Kala! Pure Eargasm!

[@pottery2790]

I can die happy knowing these kids are around!

[@thegallery]

this should also have 4 million hits. the chorus just explodes

[@FucknKillLove]

This little girl is definitely going to be a great rock singer :)

[@Abe23]

Flawless.

[@TomcatE303]

Kala's voice is perfect!

[@gemarrs]

A very cute attempt musically, I enjoyed it - though, the piano was a bit loud and the guitars a bit too quiet... Otherwise, I think the overall sound stability would've been a lot more solid. The girl singing here is my favorite part of the whole thing of course. You can tell she's passionate about what she's doing! Just like she was in 46 & 2 ;)

[@davidshaudjr9067]

do it girl confidence growing pursue ure future to the metal gods

[@jonbilderback6274]

I think we have a new Princess of Rock here people!

[@Darkininc]

Beats the ever loving hell out of American Idol

[@Billryethejewishguy]

[@rammslip]

Holy cow! this guys rock!! like hardcore!! Kala's voice is Awesome! there's no words!

[@driven2maddness1]

I HAVE NEVER HEARD SUCH POWER AN SOUL COME FROM SOMEONE SO SMALL, IT IS THINGS LIKE THIS THAT MAKE ME PROUD THAT KIDS KEEP THIS ALIVE THROUGH THE GENERATIONS, KEEP ON ROCKING LITTLE ONE YOU HAVE A BRIGHT FUTURE n/

[@tealeaflist]

'Kala Rose Band' is her Latter Day Work. (she's 22 now)...

[@downstrike3855]

Someone else's g-grandpa is as proud of her as if she were one of his own!

[@KevanleeRice]

Keep up the grand works they are insperational

[@ISM313]

Piano and guitar are unsung heroes in this as well

[@jbradtoy]

I've watched this several times since it was posted. Its so sick. I love it more than the original. You did this song so much justice! Looking forward to more covers with this vocalist!

[@fattwat1]

It's good but better than the original I don't think so

[@niksapate]

This is pure music!!!No pomp no show

[@BolekiLolek1976]

Amazing!!!! Up the Iron´s

[@curtpratt2887]

[@GhostRider-xn8pc]

Bass player is the most laid back dude I've ever seen

[@michaelhinman5835]

I look forward to following her very long career...I just hope they keep her from that pop music, Rock on Kala ,but no matter what it is I will listen...Amazing...I don't think the bands in theses songs get enough credit either...Amazing job!!!

[@skygazer858]

I love their cover. I just hope they listen to and understand what the song is about. They are the generation that must keep us from a repeat of such an evil time.

[@slayerfan61]

The young one with the eddie mask was a nice touch!

[@Phoenix12157]

(after seeing the painkiller cover by these guys) This stuff brings a tear to my eye...its good to see that metal is continuously passed on to the younger generation (and im 24...this stuff was NO WHERE in my household or where i grew up.) I belong in the 80s..... Rock on guys!

[@markjanecka6314]

I am glad iam not the only one that gets tears in my eyes from these kids.

[@ericjennings2508]

she is incredible

[@NoPrayer4TheDying]

That drummer is fucking good!

[@xxwookey]

Indeed. Anyone know his name? We know who Curtis is, but this chap is great too.

[@shaunwithem5981]

Same here bro.. 2 hours of jaw hanging to the floor. this should be Mandatory viewing for our younger generations so that they my see what REAL music is.. and one last thing.. Please MORE TOOOOL.

[@bombdub]

What an angel of a singer! Great inspiration for my daughters!

[@annrhoads6808]

Kalas is one of my OMF FAV SINGERS FOR HER AGE SHE BLOWS MY MIND I have grew up in the LA MYSIC SEEN BACK IN THE OLD DAYS WHEN MY COUSIN RANDY RHOADS WAS GIGING AND TRUST ME ONE MUSICIAN To another is is a AMAZING! Rock On Rock Hard ✌ 🎸🎀🎸💕🎩

[@MrBugfugger]

They may be young but they can rock with the best of em. She has such an amazing voice. Aaron O'Keefe and his students are amazing.

[@ryanmoyer8101]

Maiden songs are like masterpieces, so many changes in them it's insane. The fact that these kids pull it off like pros is nothing short of amazing. She's got pipes from hell perfect for metal and the rest of the kids are amazing musicians

[@brucedickinson12]

all the water is red from the blood of the dead ...... what a class line

[@willburdette8065]

That there ladies and gentlemen. Is how you play the fucking drums

[@brittneyreid8697]

The drummer kills it!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@alvladtair]

[@RwBguardian]

ALL I can say is WOW AMAZING! So enjoying these keep 'em comin ALL of ya keep em comin :)

[@SwordShape]

makes me cry with joy that these kids embrace this amazing music. Iron Maiden was a big part of my maturation, and I hope it helps them as well. rock on

[@micheaven]

best part: 6:16 - 7:00, amazing!!!

[@cappadozzcappadozz856]

Absolut magisch; da hören ein paar Kids bei ihren Vätern oder wo auch immer ein paar Klassiker, finden sich mit ihresgleichen - und stellen das in einer Perfektion auf die Beine, daß einem dieselben weich werden. Absolutely magical; a few kids listen to a few classics from their fathers or wherever, find each other with their own kind - and do it to perfection so that they become soft.

[@amandasweeten9754]

I love all of these kids!!!!! The singer is going to famous!!!!!!

[@weyen727]

*claps hands bravo to you, all the instructors and these amazing kids... Truly inspirational... Watching all the videos with my own children...

[@weyen727]

I hear ya! So you checked out more songs I take it?

[@belquerst]

Such a beautiful girl with such a beautiful voice. Awesome.

[@keithvance2807]

Complete AWESOMENESS!!! Love how Kala broke out the Eddie mask..lol

[@hannahjay1000]

i too started with 46 and 2 and i cant get enough of these kids! its great to see our younger generation listening and doing cover songs for real music. look forward to more! love that young girls voice too, can see she feels the music. well done aaron Okeefe, not only have you taught these kids awesomly but also introduced their minds to great bands and music

[@ulf793]

Been a Maiden fan since 1983 well done to these kids the whole idea of a cover version is to put your stamp on a song or interpret it your way & they certainly did a great job of that. Ignore those who poor scorn on your efforts they probably couldn't play a note themselves.or have the guts to put themselves out there for all to see. Again well done I liked it.

[@boomertat]

Bloody Marvelous Brilliant version. The young ladies voice is off the chart and the band nailed the groove. Watch out music lovers everywhere!!!!!

[@clayatkins6702]

Vocals, Amazing, Blown away! Drums, Man this kid! WOW! You got it dude! Guitar was good! All in all loved the arrangement and loved how well the timing changes were easily transitioned. These kids never fail to impress, My hats off to you Mr. Okeefe

[@briantbrown8958]

Have watched quite a few of these "Aaron O'Keefe" videos, each one is better than the last, all of the kids are so AMAZING, the music is amazing

[@jeffhudgons3902]

unbelievable. i love these kids. they are hard core
