This is one of Iron Maiden's most famous songs from early 80s (when I grew up)! It's CLASSIC! Dan's subtle changes made it new for me...love it. And no this song is not evil, it's about a dream.
Dan Vasc+Victor +Beardo= EPICNESS!!! I love the way this was presented in sepia tones, black silhouette ,epic screams, growls....yup,it's Dan Vasc doing Dan Vasc things to music! While i love his voice in other music, Metal is his wheelhouse!Thank you for your reaction!
Dan Vasc and Victor is phenomenal
Great Reaction. Glad you chose to stay.
The song is based on a nightmare from watching the omen.
You should check out his Born to be wild it's incredible or Enter Sandman
This is a kick-ass cover of the song. Dan gives the same energy as the original while making it unique.
Thanks for a wonderful reaction, i think it's wonderful, how you've never been listening to metal, and that it's not your favorite genre, but that you're so open, and appreciate it to the degree that you do.
It seems that Dan has had that effect on a LOT of people.
Dan stated some time back, that he had taken interest in the Mongolian metalband The Hu.
And if you really listen to his deepest growls/snarls in this song, it becomes very clear, that he's been digging into the skill of the deep mongolian throatsinging.
There's a very different quality to his growls than what we've heard in any previous songs.
I won't be surprised at all, if we'll hear some quality throatsinging from Dan at some point.
What is seriously intriguing in this song is, how he goes directly from almost operatic to belting, rasping, to deep aggressive growls, back to operatic within one single phrase.
That is a vocal mastery of elite proportions - Dan has brought out the entire palette of colors for this one.
And how he masters that long sliding fryscream, and then jumps straight into a completely different technique.
Ok, that could also have been done in the editing, but i have no doubts he could pull that off live.
Also visually he has stepped up his game, playing with new colors, new camera angles, from full bodyshots to extreme closeups, playing a lot with light/shadow and fast cuts, which ads to the intensity of the song.
It's highly skillfully done.
And Victor, the guitarist delivers some incredibly amazing riffs, both on the bass and the guitars.
He is such an amazing, but unfortunately seriously underrated guitarist.
He belongs up there with the absolute elite professionals.
My only small critique will be the intro by Fearthebeardo, which has (in my ears) become a bit too theatrical (which could very well be intentional), but i feel it should have been more refined and subtle, and Dan could easily have done that deep voice himself, with a lot more finesse and interesting undercurrents - but that's just me and my ears.
One of the Iron Maiden band members had a nightmare after seeing The Omen movie. So the song is about the dream and adds the devil speaking at the end, but I don't think it was ever meant to be an "evil" song. I just think they took the dream and made a song out of it. Interesting about 616. I have never heard of that. Your reactions are always informative. Thanks.
It's Dan ! What a powerfull performance! What a voice !! Dan is the best !Victor is incredible too, and the intro is very good ! Thank you for your reaction ! 😊
Yeah! We actually had a Bible study Sunday evening from Revelation, which I suggested, because I had listened to this cover by Dan. I don't know Mr. Boyd, but my Bible says 666 😊. We also talked about end times and the devil causing trouble. I guess we're trying to make too much out of this song. I really enjoyed it, especially because Dan dropped it on Halloween which is my favorite holiday. I like to be scared and this song definitely did that. I think it was an excellent cover, as good if not better than the original. Dan sang just right, Victor played just right, and Beardos intro was so smooth. Perfection
The church I grew up in said the number of the beast is 616, but the marking of the beast is 666 which is the human number when that time comes.
I stand corrected. Thanks for calling me out😊
Dan is Awesome 😊
40 year old song about a nightmare one of Iron Maiden had after watching the Omen (never seen the film) I was 30 when this came out, also thought it was brilliant back then.. The sound of Bruce and the whole of IM production made it a Fantasy sequence.. Here Dan has ramped it up for Halloween, (Irish so not a fan of 'new Halloween' stick to folk lore and Jack 'O' lanterns) This production in sepia is a genius stroke, making Dan's eyes so dark, and the shadows work.. Dan is progressive rock through and through.. Victor is Swedish has his own channel and plays in a band called Eleine I believe, Fear the Beardo has a wicked low voice.. Dan was demonetized for this video at first and had to prove it was an original piece and not Iron Maiden, that's how close to Bruce Dickenson he got. I'm sure the lads of IM would be happy with this cover. Brilliant reaction and so lovely to see you, stay safe my friend
I have always loved this song, from the day it was originally released, because I AM that old. It has such great energy, and Dan absolutely did it justice, even my brother, a die hard Maiden fan said it was a good cover...which means its awesome lol
This is definitely a darker side of Dan. Another commenter noticed that he focused on the music of this song having his performance in almost darkness and in silhouette. He has said that power metal is his number one love of music. I think we at Vascnation are witnessing an evolution of this phenomenal artist.
Great screen and great reaction! ❤
This is an iron maiden cover so the lyrics are already wrote, fear the beardo is only reading from the original. Dan and Victor rocked this, love it brilliance, the song is about a dream one of iron maidens members wrote.❤❤ thankyou for your great reaction
Dan Vasc is fantastic. I'm starting to run out of words that can do it justice. An artist through and through 🤘
I was the same way with music - hated metal, but I outlasted you...I was 74 when I was introduced to Dan Vasc. Dan has taught me what metal is all about and I have a new appreciation for it. I liken it to when I first saw an HD TV - my husband and I bought one, brought it home and turned it on. My eyes were not used to it and I could not watch it for long at a time, but my eyes got used to it and since thnm things have been brighter and clearer.
Dan is quite the artist! Love his voice and the productions he puts together. So talented! Thanks for the reaction!
Dan is a bro!! Introduced to him from Nerdrotic.
this is originally an Iron Maiden song from 1982
I was watching G&G and Dan was saying he was going to release this as soon as it was over Ha Ha right before midnight. Loved his performance, was worth the wait. Victor kudos to you too! Still looking for a Christmas metal song😂❤Great review to Dan once again.
#subtonerdrotic
Dan is going to win the bet! Hope Nerdrotic is practicing whichever Bon Jovi song he chooses to do. I love both guys, though, so if I'm wrong, well, hey, we'll hopefully get a great new original song from Dan, as long as Gary can write a decent song. Hail the 1⃣9⃣9⃣!🐍🐍🐍
🤣@@josiahrobinson6135
the isnt a nod to the beast its a warning. Not everything is as seems sometimes Dan is a christian
I think this is the music that showcases the artist who is Dan Vasc
I can relate to most of what you've said. Dan awakened my interest in metal, too.
Yeh, I've also heard about the 616, but it still confuses me. I'm glad you brought it up.
The way Dan does this song, is like a confirmation that Revelation is for real & is actually unfolding before our very eyes. The original band, Iron Maiden, presented it as a fantasy in the minds of weirdo's.
Thank God Dan grabbed the mic to tell the Buttercups to buckle up for the ride of their everlasting lives.
I love how you appreciate Dan like I do. More Dan please!!
Love his version of Amazing Grace
Love this talented young man.... he loves his metal... but can sing anything... just reaches out and grabs you.... ❤
He has spent many years getting to where he is now. I see big things in his future.
Enjoyed your review.. thank you
The church that I grew up in alway dove deep into the book of Revaluations, the number of the beast is 616, but the marking of the beast is 666, which is the human marking when that time comes.
Very fun cover by Dan. I agree that Metal is his path of greatness.
Made me laugh. I was exactly the same about guitar solos until earlier this year. I am in my 60's. I listened to a progressive intrumental band called Animals as Leaders. Blew my mind. With no vocalist it was as if the guitars were "singing" the song.
Totally changed my perspective of solos. Now I see them as a new instrumental "voice" added to the song.
🥰🥰🇨🇦
we have the power to make our choice at least
Check out Dan Vasc and Confessori - Where the eagles fly song, 🔥
Happy 100 000 subscribers! You are intelligent and you deserve it!
I grew up on hair metal and the new wave invasion
Here from the other one. Glad i found it. 🙏
Thanks firvthe reaction.Dan is Epic.
You are absolutely correct, he can sing anything, but this is where he belongs. He's working on a Manowar tribute album right now
VICTOR PLAYS SO WELL THAT CZcams THOUGHT HE WAS THE IRON ORIGINAL AND DEMONETIZED DAN, BUT DAN PROVED HE WASN'T AND NOW EVERYTHING IS OK. MUSIC IS ART AND IT'S NOT EVIL, PEOPLE ARE EVIL
React to some of his Manowar covers! For example Black Wind Fire And Steel.
❤❤Dan can def sing any genre, this is crazy good 🎉🎉
Dan and Victor are a Rock/Metal force!!! Excellent cover of this Iron Maiden song. If you want to listen to a great guitar solo check out the live version of Chicago's 5 or 6 to 4. Amazing!!
Absolutely Beyond Banger Awesome ❤️🔥
Guitar solos in rock are like any instrumental solo in jazz. It's just part of the genre.
I had to watch a couple times. I knew it being about the dream. But finally saw in the beginning, it says”he knew his time was short” Epic interpretation of the song.
You have to listen to his version of Handel's hallelujah. He is a whole choir all by himself! It is awesome
This is actually by Iron Maiden
The quote at the beginning is Revelations 12:12. This is a cover of Iron Maiden's *Number of the Beast*. One of the most famous early metal songs. This album introduced us to Bruce Dickinson and the world would never be the same.
i love lore. And Bruce Dickenson would be proud im sure
Check out "The Song of the White Wolf" from The Witcher, it's a metal cover. This would be my all-time fav song of Dans. Also another metal song "Black wind, fire & steel" with Luis Mariutti on guitar, like you've never heard!
im..well over 4 decades and im just figuring out what i used to listen to. I liked it for a reason but i never really dived into it
MRLBOYD. ARE YOU BACK????? I hope so!
THE AUTHOR HAD A DREAM AND TRANSFORMED IT INTO MUSIC. The "number of the beast" - 666 - is perhaps the most famous reference in the Book of Revelation. The passage that quotes it says: "Let him who has discernment calculate the number of the beast, for it is a man's number, and his number is 666".
While you are correct that 616 is represented a few early manuscripts, it is the vast minority, and is generally considered to be a copyist error. 666 is what is representative by the manuscript tradition as a whole, and the discrepancy is discussed by the early church fathers as early as the 200s.
👍
Interesting...Bible Scripture! Revelation 13:18 talks about the number of the beast, which is 666
Great reaction. I agree, while Dan can sing pretty much anything, he was born for heavy metal. I also agree this song is evil. Because of that, I've limited the number of reaction videos I've viewed for this one as I don't like to invite that kind of energy into my home and my space. That said, when I saw you had done a reaction to this one, I had to watch!
Dan usually puts out something new for Christmas, so I'm looking forward to that!
This is tame for an Iron Maiden song. Bring Your Daughter is a song about vrigin sacrifice.
@@rwxstudio7173 Understood. It's just that, as a Christian, it concerns me that The Number of the Beast gives a voice to the enemy.
This song is NOT evil! The narrator actually wants no part of what he saw. Look at and listen to the lyrics carefully and with an open mind. It's not a celebration of evil; it's a warning against it.
The song is anti-evil. The song' s narrator wants no part of what he's seen in his dream. It's the misinterpretation of this song and most other metal that caused me to skip metal in the 80s. Now, all the people who told me it was evil owe me restitution for all the great music that I missed back then.
Great reaction! Please 🙏 keep the Dan reactions coming!
It's a cover the original was by Iron Maiden. Listen to the original even better vocals.
No this is not original this is one of Iron Maiden’s most famous songs and why the “Number of the beast is 666” became so popular instead of the 616
616..666 both are common terms in various religious texts it all depends on the year/century written. Bottom line is do you get the meaning of the song? most who dont understand metal never will.. give ya hint has to do with war
Not bad, but there is only one Bruce Dickenson.
In Christianity 666 in Chistianity
This verse is from Revelations in the Bible my friend this is the truth after 2000 years he must be released and Jesus will come back like a thief in the night no man or woman will know when we will be doing everyday things no man can predict when no matter what they think no predictions are right none
Enjoyed your reaction. I would never cave considered listening to metal until I heard Dan sing Amazing grace. That was it.when Dan sings metal, I listen. I still dont like metal that is miced so thgat the singers voice is barely audable.
not better than the original, still a decent copy
