Bruce Dickinson kills it. He's an exceptional vocalist singing for an amazing band. Your appreciation of his talent and abilities AND also the band's synchronicity shows that you really can absorb a lot of information in a short time and really understand music without focusing on just a few components. Kudos to you for digesting so much on a first watch

[@johnzagorianos5525]

As a metalhead i believe that many of us watching these reaction videos done by proffesional vocal coaches, it's like getting some kind of validation that indeed rock and metal music has some of the most talented musicians and singers of all time. Even though we know it's true that's why we listen to these beautifull songs, hearing it from a proffesional vocal coach saying what we always knew was right is so satisfying. Especially in the world we live today that is dominated by pop music and superficial lyrics and perfomances where nobody seems to notice the quality songs that have been produced and still are being produced to this day by so many bands. I wish many more people could get a chance to really get to know rock and metal music and see it for the art that it really is and the quality that it has to offer. Thank you Tara, i really enjoy your videos!

[@glaucogomes1116]

My thoughts exactly. The sheer amount of talent in rock/metal is still hugely underappreciated in general when compared to other genres. It's indeed refreshing to see recognition from the "outside".

[@johnzagorianos5525]

@@joemartin7451 Metal lesson! Iron Maiden helped spawn what's known as New Wave of British Heavy Metal. Other bands of that ilk are Judas Priest, Motorhead, Def Leppard, Saxon, the list goes on. BUT! They inspired Speed Metal, Thrash Metal, Power Metal, and Black Metal. Thrash metal being huge in the 80's-90's birthing the Big Four. Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, and Anthrax with arguing mentions for Exodus, Death Angel, and a few others. So. Iron Maiden inspired some of the biggest names in metal history. Hence, they are metal gods.

It´s hard to tell, how it feels, when you listen to a vocal analysis of a song, you self have listened to over 36 years, in 2019 ! Best that I just say, thank you, it was a very interesting listening. Bruce at that time was pure, raw power and range, later he became a true master of his instrument as time took it´s toll, it´s mind blowing to think, how he would have sounded, if he had technical ability of today and that golden voice of his youth combined. Well, you grow old and you learn, can´t have them both.

Tara is really into what Bruce is doing, from a vocal aspect to performance and breaks it down well. I grew up with Maiden and knew how good and influential it was as a musician...but to watch and hear it now on a video like this of Dickenson in the early 80's it is shocking how good he really was back then. It should be remembered there were no in-ear monitors at that time, and Dickenson doesn't fall off a note even remotely anywhere. I love how she talks about how into the performance the band is and how committed they are emotionally and physically...I think when you see shows of current artists today many of them mimic that but aren't truly there. That's what separates a lot of these classic groups from the modern ones...you can just feel it coming off of that grainy video of them from almost 40 years ago.

What a performance they put on in this, downright INCREDIBLE! Love maiden. Saw them in 2016 and they were perfect.

[@patrickellis3205]

The thing we should remember is Bruce did this night after night for 192 2hr concerts on one nonstop world tour, he could sustain that singing somewhat endlessly!

I remember the concert for this tour. It was Judas Priest ..Sceaming for Veangeance/ Iron Maiden..Number of the Beast in a double bill at Madison Square Garden. It is one of the best concerts I have ever seen. And trust me ,I have seen so many shows, I really cannot name them all. I used to keep all my ticket stubs as a teenager, and they were pinned around the various band posters I had covering my bedroom. And I have seen Maiden about 8 or 9 times. I really liked this show, and the Powerslave tour concertwith Scorpions opening up for them. \m/ get up those Horns!!!!!!

The Hellion and Eddie at MSG

Children of the Damned, also.sheer perfection. There's something strange about his voice on that, like it's erupting in the very core but sides are solid so the lava stays inside and that 'beam' of sound races through the soul of the listener. So awesome.Studio version.

[@cimerians]

This is one of the best vocal reviews you explain everything so clearly keep up the great work!

[@Tarasimonstudios]

Thank u! I appreciate that!

[@twotonsosalt9638]

25 years after this was recorded, Iron Maiden is still touring and still bringing this same energy and talent to the stage. They were pioneers in bringing their show to places other bands ignored, building a massive worldwide following. I highly recommend you watch the documentary Iron Maiden Flight 666 to see just how hard these guys work at being the greatest touring metal band off all time.

[@mix6809]

Loved that reaction, u really got that song, the singing, the riffs, the fact that it was performed live. And as many others below have said I'm sure, one of the greatest songs of all time, hehe...

[@cwilson3124]

Maiden are all masters of their instruments. Bruce is an instrument. The human air raid siren strikes again.

[@you3Gio]

Ronnie James Dio next. Your are going to love his voice!

[@mert_plbyk]

Yessssss +1

[@Kvisroysa]

Dio is so unique!

[@megaprimegamer1184]

Dio and Bruce defined metal.

[@isaiahwelch8066]

Watching a vocal coach react to one of the greatest metal singers of all time, can only be described in one word: VINDICATED. Because we metalheads always knew the truth of how good metal vocalists are. 😊 And Tara, I would ask you to react to Liliac, a fun-loving metal band that is all siblings. Their cover of Iron Maiden's "The Trooper" is an awesome track to listen to!

[@Airblazer]

love how she's blown away by Dave's solo. Its an incredible performance by him and his playing always blows me away. Such an underrated guitarist.

[@robertb.4202]

Iron Maiden is amazing live! Even in their older ages, they can still deliver.

Ugh wow this video makes me so proud to be a fan! I saw maiden live a week ago for their legacy of the beast tour and I was blown away. They sound even better live than on a recording 😩

[@MsGeoffh]

Energy just flows through the audience i know i saw them it was like electrifying! never forget that day electricity was flowing between crowd and band it was like love at first sight al over again magical!

Steve Harris the bassist is an amazing musician. He writes most of the songs and watching him live while he lip syncs all the songs make the concerts the best ever. Best live metal ever. Great to see a pro appreciate talent. Thank you.
