Bruce was more worried about fans freaking out than his own recovery. very few artists remain like you Sir. World class gentleman.
+Ricardo Marambio This guy is a living example of an ideal human being. If people were more like him, the world would be a much much better place...
+necroplastful I love your comment. Agreed. Cheers.
+necroplastful No, he's the living example of evolution.
+IVAN3DX That's not exactly how evolution works, but yeah, love Bruce.
Dorcas Meadowes I know what evolution is and roughly how it works. I have no idea what I meant with that back then hahahaha. It was probably something related to how he evolved as a singer over the years, but I'm not sure.
I like how the interviewer actually lets the artist talk.
How is Bruce Dickinson not Sir Bruce Dickinson, yet?
Because he is a dirty, stinking, uneducated, hippie with no manners who will never accomplish anything like, say a good English airline pilot... he should get a day job!
@@rjonboy7608 lol... I hope this is just a joke. If not... get a life, dude
This dude was like "I probably have cancer, but this album needs to get finished first."
That's manly as FUCK.
Dan Silvia no.thats stupid as fuck, can u compare a music album with a person life?
hearing bruce talk about protecting the fans from the bad news really shows how much he cares ... I had the same feelings and emotions when i was struggling to tell my kids that I was diagnosed with cancer. Nice to see a living legend that still has a soul .
Been a while but im curious how are you now? Prayers
Bruce is a very mentally strong, and mentally healthy guy....His attitude toward his cancer is inspiring....He actually cared about his fans enough to not let them know that he's very sick as to not cause them concern, and worry....A truly humble man....Would love to meet the guy...Saw them Wednesday April, 6, 2016 in Chicago...Book of Souls Tour, and it was fantastic.....Thanks for coming to Chicago Guys....!
meet him back in 2007 at Air Atlantique and it just reconfirmed to me that he was and still is my biggest idol
I really think Gruhamed is a very good interviewer, who really shows his love for his job, wich let artist naturally open up. Even with the darker subjects. For the viewer (us) it's great and intriguing to watch.
+John van Hoeijen Thank you, everybody. It was my honor - G
+Loudwire yah dude forget the haters you do a great job
+Loudwire The BEST interview of Bruce I have ever seen in 30 years of fandom with Iron Maiden. Bravo
+John van Hoeijen He does have the dream job of most metalheads after all.
+Loudwire You respect them, and every interview is so calm and informative.
Best frontman ever. And of the nicest human beings. Long live Bruce! Up the Irons!
HE IS THE BEST IN EVERYTHING HE DOES!! GOD BLESS HIM! 🙏
i love you bruce❤️

I'm so glad he survived.
me too
not only survived. he is still the best vocalist in the world!!
Who the hell would dislike this?
We love u Bruce. MAIDEN FOREVER!
Never been a huge Maiden fan but I have tremendous respect for this guy. Love you Bruce! The true essence of metal right here, folks.
Same here im not a fan either but i respect the guy for coming out with this and telling fans not to worry i hope he will be ok and in remission he got the treatment in time. Huge respect to him
Bruce Dickinson, what a legend!
an amazing person , really down to Earth
I am so impressed with this young man. Brilliant and empathetic. I love how real this exchange was. He put Bruce at total ease. It may help that this lad is Bruce's sons age range. Bruce had the ease of a father a little bit, in my humble opinion.
Ken Willis, what young man? Because Bruce isn't young.
i think he was talking about the interviewer
Shaman Eddie Bruce isn't old either.
Well I think I speak for everyone when I say thank God cancer was unsuccessful in taking this brilliant musician after unfortunately taking David Bowie. Having personally witnessed the devastating effects of cancer on good people I can say we need to keep fighting it, we've already made so much progress against it, I look forward to the day we can say no one else ever has to go through this horrible illness. On that note, listen to their last album and remind yourself, the singer had throat cancer when he did that, and you will have a new respect for that man; it's generally unbelievable the dedication he has.
+Anthony Gretton In fairness, you've only beaten cancer when you die of something else.
I love you, Bruce. So glad you survived the cancer beast.
Corinne Escobar me too because without Bruce was world very sad.
"Bruce you have cancer": "meh..."
"Justin you have a slight cold": "sorry guys I'm going home"
Metal>pop forever.
*throws something on Manson during doncert*: Come here..... GET OUT OF MY STAGE YOU FUCKING PUSSY!
*throws something on Bieber during concert*: ouch, that hurts :)
Justin Bieber is a slimy muskrat cunt fuckwad
Bruce Dickinson is a motherfucking cancer killing plane flying metal belting god
@@jdjdhshdhdhrjdjdhshjdjidji1542 - Do not let your hatred for Justin Bieber lead you to the Dark Side…
this guy has to be the best interviewer all time, pretty much everytime I get annoyed by interviewers but with this guy he is not annoying at all I actually like this guy alot.
"You can't kill the Metal" - Jack Black, Tenacious D.
+FistKitso But Dio though...
+Aaron McBryer Yeah...well....At least metal itself won't die.
FistKitso Oh, yeah, of course, metal is eternal.
+FistKitso he lives in our hearts!
+gabattaz1 he lives in our sacred hearts
sorry i had to
This is a huge relief because if Bruce were not to have recovered I think things are bad enough for me I would have thought of "Following" him. I've had nightmare after nightmare about losing him and it was only in my subconscious that I could tell how bad it would effect me. He's a gentleman. He's not an arrogant rock star. Bruce Dickinson is unique. I learned my lesson with Michael Jackson that I had thought he'd never die and then all of a sudden he's dead and I went out of my mind. You cannot expect somebody just because they are famous that you can ignore them, cast them aside, and think they'll live forever. I am so relieved about Bruce! Let's hope for no more health problems!
Benjamin Blake Mitchner. Ben, please don't even say that You would follow Bruce if he had died. Suicide is a mortal sin and you will only end up in hell. Please make sure You stay talking with people. If You don't Pray, Start!. I will include You in my Prayers. GOD Bless You Ben, I know You'll be ok.
All the best to you Bruce, you're easily one of my favorite Iron Maiden singers
As a musician with cancer, you are an inspiration and hope!
How are you doing today?
The pain of cancer may have made Bruce more creative in the recent album.
+PazzaTV He says at the beginning that the cancer was detected near the end of the recording.
IVAN3DX 'the pain' he also suspected that the cancer was there; 'lump on neck' it's a tad obvious something's wrong, he put off the check up until after the recording.
Wow, I respect that so much! 6 freaking weeks with the thought you might have cancer... You’re such a strong person Bruce! Hell you’re freaking amazing! All my love and support🤘🏼❤️
I only see Like and Dislike buttons on this video. That's not enough. Where's the Love button? All the best to Bruce and the guys. Up the Irons!
Bruce's cancer incident effected a lot of people in the metal community. Bruce is such a living legend, and words would never be strong enough to describe if cancer claimed Bruce.
Everyone wanted Bruce to pull through with it, and it was a breath of fresh air when Bruce was given the all clear. Even Paul Diannio, who has mocked both Bruce and Iron Maiden as a whole, wished Bruce a safe recovery.
The Interviewer deserves a promotion!. Well done!
To Bruce Dickinson I hope you get better. I've always been an iron maiden fan. I love singing y'alls songs and playing y'alls on my guitar. Iron maiden music always influenced me. So I hope that god himself puts his healing hand on you Bruce! And may iron maiden music live on.
bruce is such an humble and down to earth guy!, such an inspiration!.
The interviewer just does his job like he should. I think he's awesome but also lucky to talk with people like Bruce Dickinson,David Draiman,Kerry King,Kory Taylor etc. Keep up the good work
Id kill to be in his shoes. So happy I get to live my dream of hearing the thoughts and emotions of my favourite rockstars through Gru
In 1982, with the charts full of poofy synth duos, Bruce did that massive scream in Number of the Beast and life has never been the same - played guitar for 33 years and had a great time.
I have a lump in my face, now he's making me get that checked out - bruce saves the day again, I hope...
Bruce didn't get Cancer.....Cancer got Bruced!
The way Bruce described his erstwhile facial hair, I thought he was gonna reference his countryman and fellow rocker Lemmy.
Hehe That's funny..
+Harrison Myers Lol... I was thinking the same thing!
+Harrison Myers 3 weeks latter... Lemmy died.
+Harrison Myers That was before Lemmy dies...
After the surgery the way he speaks is definitely different - Even the shape of his mouth. Bloke's been through a hell of a lot and is still able to do more in a week than I've done in my entire life.
Bruce is really an inspiration. You get a glimpse on the what if factor that is very personal. Had something comparable to that and I know how he felt. He really makes a connection with people
Dickinson is amazing in every way.
Great interviewer + legend = EPIC interview.
Thank you Bruce!
bruce seems like a hell of a guy
Glad to see Bruce is doing okay! Great interview!
Among the most respected artists ever! Music world without you, Bruce, would be a hell.
just seeing you on tour makes my day...
Best health to you Mr. Bruce
Great interview!
One of my countries true greatest men. Proud to be a maiden fan and I admire Dickinson's talent, integrity and humilty. Such a fucking legend
what a fantastic,amazind and awesome person.
total respect for a magnificent gentleman king.
your legend will lives on even the eternity should fail.
thanks to exist.
i saw them las july the 22th in milano and it was fantastic.
up the irons all the life.
great interview!
Respect to such a Warrior!!
I love this guy, every time I watch any interview with him I find out some new facts.
His voice has definitely changed.
Saw them live last week, I can assure you the experience was just as good as the other 8 times I saw them.
Liam Hughes I can agree to that - sounds the same as every other time I've seen them. He can still sing all of the songs just as well, but things like Aces High can be a bit of a strain if he's doing them live - it still sounds amazing, though.
Bruce’s Radiotherapy (x-ray) knocks out the salivary glands useful for lubricating the voice, and you need years to recover from these glands getting a bit fried.
Love you Bruce!
love Bruce, great to see he is doing ok..
We wanna see the photos
What a fantastic interview.
Loved the interview !! \m/
Bruce Dickinson is one of the greatest role models in heavy metal. One of the greatest frontman ever, great voice I mean he was back n forth threw out the entire show.
Bruce is a fish and James is a table. Welcome to metal
Cerberus, lol, memes in a nutshell.
#metalfishandtable
good to know your doing well now
I love how he did the interview but personally i would have asked a couple questions differently and asked other questions but other than that another great interview very informative good job
Bruce, you look great!...Keep rocking my friend!
great interview, some really intelligent questions - not just the usual standard lines. and bruce is an inspiration - having read his autobiography, i would recommend it for anyone who may be down or even just a bit stuck in their life for whatever reason. his whole life has never been about 'poor me', if things are bad he always said 'well, how can i make this better?' and just did it. but never in an arrogant, entitled way - he just had that amazingly positive attitude. no wonder he does corporate speaking tours but even then, he's not a wanker about it he just says what he thinks in a commonsense way
gruhamed is amazing i love his interviews keep up the good work!
00:24 I love bruce quirky smile at "the tumor and everything..."
What a fucking GREAT guy! Legitimately thinks about how long the FANS will be worried when HE'S got the cancer in his throat! Class act, great interview.
I found myself smiling while watching this video. Both guys try to make the other one feel comfortable but still they speak honestly about things that are hard to speak of.
what an inspiration
The new album is awesome!!!! \m/
I shared the same feelings with Bruce. I had a cancer in 2010 and my first reaction was: "Do I want to know it... now?"
Great interview.
Happy birthday dear Bruce
Legend.
34 Maiden concerts attended to and counting!!! UP THE IRONS!!!
thank god hes ok😄
I LIKE this guy...this interviewer!! VERY good job!!
Yes sir, we think we are invincible, man you lived a loud and overly large life on stage for us Now we need to understand that we are all human and need to think about ourselves. We need to look forward to the next level of life.. Family and adventure and love. Just live with love and be free and happy......
Refreshing to have a good interviewer for a change. Good job here.
never question Bruce Dickinson!
Bruce Dickinson you rock man ...
WHRE DID YOU GET THAT TOOL SHIRT OR WHAT IS IT CALLED I NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED IT!!!!
I’ve been having issues swallowing and a bit swollen on the right side of my throat...I have a bad tooth right above it and think, hope it’s from that. Wish I could talk to Bruce about it
Maybe the biggest surviving entertaining metal superstar frontman is perhaps also the most engaging, humble, non-pretentious, friendliest of them all. He's like the free spirited, interesting, renaissance-man, rich uncle we all wish we had.
As an expert I can tell you that Bruce got his fencing shoes on.
Awesome!
This interviewer is great, I think he might be even a bigger fan than me.
Do a Wikipedia fact or fiction with iron maiden or Bruce
It just shows that we are all just human cancer can get us all o hope all the people reading this stay cancer free
Bruce, you're a fucking hero 🤘🏻
I hope he is now ok
Congratulations to #BruceDickinson
Cancer Free!
good interviewer
This dude goes so hard
Even after cancer he could sing like a GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good that Bruce is now in great condition :)
Bruce I just have one question... What are thosssseeee. But seriously glad your feeling better \m/
Awesome Hehehe!
Bruce Versus Cancer(and man, do I pity Cancer)
Fact or Fiction with this guy is LONG overdue!
I love Grahm's Tool shirt
Bruce Dickinson is a fucking viking with a big heart!
