This song is just one of many reasons why Bruce is one of the Greatest musicians to have graced us since the classical and romantic period of music. Truly Lovely and brilliant Thanks to Blake for the Great lyrics and poetry (Or whatever you would like to call his work).
We will meet again, Father. Upon the holy grounds of Celestial Jerusalem. Thank you for honouring me with life and for sacrificing yourself for your family. Fairwell.
The song has nothing to do with the city of Jerusalem, but is based on a poem by William Blake that speculated that Jesus went to England at some point during His "missing years." Great song, at any rate.
NAAAA MICHAEL KISKE BY FAR.... MORE FANTEZI MORE COLORED VOICE IN MUCH BETTER WAYS OF VOICE WAVES BETTER ABILITIES ALMOST PERFECT AS A SINGER..... AND VERY SWEET. THEN I PREFER CHRIS OLIVA NOONE ELSE....
My Missus is quite the music snob, but Bruce's "Chemical Wedding" is her favourite album of all time. With this being a cover track its easy to see why its the best album ever - some of the guitar parts are so layered its mind blowing - its over 20 years old and still sounds fresh and brilliant!!!
I have recently just been listening to some Iron Maiden songs. I had no idea that Bruce had his own music! Wow, now this song is very moving and intense! Wow!!! God Bless Bruce!
People should stop saying how jerusalem isn't part of england! Does it matter? It's a song and could have other meanings behind it... Amazing song! Probably the best of his solo career! Iron Maiden weren't right without him as the singer, glad he went back.
A lot of sadness cause I see thatt most of you don't know that the lyrics is from genius English poet William Blake's versus Jerusalem. He meant that England is blessed land and new Jerusalem for Englishman. He means Heavenly Jerusalem. That his country England is like heaven for him.
+Dart Vader Its more about how England was a beautiful country being overtaken by Industry. A line not in this song is "And was Jerusalem builded here, Among these dark Satanic Mills?" It is commentary on the industrial revolution.
#IronMaiden I simply adore you! I've seen your concerts here at #Madrid #Spain and many of your lyrics come from the #Bible KJV! ❤I WILL NEVER FORGET THOSE TIMES! THANK YOU #IRON #MAIDEN!
heard this song only yesterday when I met a friendly guy at the bus who like metal, then we changed the cells during the travel I heard him musics, one of them was this one :) meanwhile he heard from my cell Helloween and John 5 heard it too :-) :-)
According to the Bible, Jerusalem was once the home of an ethnic group called the Jebusites, before King David conquered it. So Jerusalem has not always been a Jewish city.
Oh gods... people, leave politics to idiots in parliaments, listen to the MUSIC, it doesn't matter which god you believe in, music like this brings you closer to heavens!
E aqueles pés em tempos passados caminharam sobre as montanhas verdes da inglaterra ? Foi o santo cordeiro de deus que foi visto sobre os pastos exuberantes da inglaterra ?
You can tell Bruce is enjoying singing this!!
A Masterpiece! from a Top Poet and from a Top Singer.
Bruce Dickinson is a genius, what atmosphere!.
I've always loved this song, and Bruces solo stuff. This man gave an external voice to Blake.
Indeed guitar solo there, is simply divine!..
Una obra maestra!
Epic song!

What a Hymn !!!!
Bruce the best, simple the best !!!
Genius
This song gives me chills every time.

he did travel to Europe, yes
Actually, it is about Joseph of Arimathea
Love this Bruce......Still awesome after all these years......what a voice!!
uma das melhores músicas da carreira solo do Bruce !!!!
This song is perfect! I never tire of listening!
Wow what a voice
This man never ceases to amaze me. Thank you Bruce for such wonderful vocals!
Has brought pleasure to so many people over the years a true hero.
Fantastic
What a beautiful song.
I dunno which I prefer more, this or the canterbury cathedral version with Ian Anderson. Both are wonderful!
best heavy metal singer ever, no doubt about it

Your missus deserves her title as connoisseur. This album is a gem.
Here here
This isn't a cover, it's a new setting of an existing poem, just like most of the rest of the album
I have recently just been listening to some Iron Maiden songs. I had no idea that Bruce had his own music! Wow, now this song is very moving and intense! Wow!!! God Bless Bruce!
I love Bruce
true fact, every time i sing this out loud it rains for a month
Roy Z is one of the few men I deem worthy to work with The Bruce. He really added a lot to The Bruce's solo work in my opinion.
lol
Не перестаю любить Maiden и его почти 20 лет!Красавец!,
Ótimo Som Parabéns Pela voz a energia fazer toda nação rockeira ficar contente com suas músicas Bruce ✌
Great song.
I've read this poem 13 years ago

Yet I feel like it's the first time doing both today ❤️
Album in my collection, thanks for vid.
Gulp
Proud to be from a green and pleasant land
🏴

William Blake, and Jerusalém música Fantástica , the Chemical Wedding Místico, filosófico o melhor álbum do Dickinson \m/

In Jerusalem where the Grail remains.

No prostě kdo umí ten umí,není co dodat nádhera

This song is based off William Blake's poem, Jerusalem... they talk about things they don't know =)
It's about the idea of Jerusalem, of building heaven on Earth.
Yup. The Heavenly Jerusalem, not the political or Zionist Jerusalem. Their eyes are on the gutters instead of the stars.
perfect
such an amazing song
great stuff
amazing voice
A lot of sadness cause I see thatt most of you don't know that the lyrics is from genius English poet William Blake's versus Jerusalem. He meant that England is blessed land and new Jerusalem for Englishman. He means Heavenly Jerusalem. That his country England is like heaven for him.

It is commentary on the industrial revolution.
In the end of 18 century?
William Blake was mystiq and very interesting in spiritualism and witchcraft he wrote this verse totally about that England is new Spiritual jerusalem
+Dart Vader
Throw the scum out of Your beautiful country if You know what I mean;)
Awesome!
#IronMaiden I simply adore you! I've seen your concerts here at #Madrid #Spain and many of your lyrics come from the #Bible KJV! ❤I WILL NEVER FORGET THOSE TIMES! THANK YOU #IRON #MAIDEN!
Great great song.....
beatiful poetry..............
Brilliance :)
Maravilloso!
Love England, cheers from Peronnia.
I think Roy Z is from 4:00 to 4:17, the harmonics are played by both, then from 4:36 to 4:54 is Adrian.
love the guitar , have to crank it up !
the vocal part is awesome!!
This--this song is actually pretty kickass
It's Bruce Dickinson. Did you expect any less?
The whole album is...and I concur with the above comment (would you expect anything less from Bruce?)
From the frozen waters the king will rise again....
PURE EPICNESS!..
magical
Super píseň
cool song...
good job b.d!!!!!
Amo❤esta,voz
Duas, gosto até de ouvir entrevista só pra ouvir a voz dele
3.Y love you Bruce!!❤️❤️

on the money! czcams.com/video/hAtxrfF0DI8/video.html
Falar dessa música e o mesmo que falar de Bruce o cara e fera mesmo muito bom
great
Bring us back to true English place
must hit the heart
this music is kinda awesome
This should have been an Iron Maiden song
LET IT RAIN !!1 LET IT RAIN "" WASH THE SCALES OF MY EYES!!!!!
As long there is FAITH....there is not a loser....
Брюс это все таки IRON MAIDEN хотя сольники отличные.Живи и здравствуй,долгих лет.
I always love to see this particular video when it shows the painting of the Crusaders coming to save the Jews hiding in their castle.
heard this song only yesterday when I met a friendly guy at the bus who like metal, then we changed the cells during the travel I heard him musics, one of them was this one :) meanwhile he heard from my cell Helloween and John 5 heard it too :-) :-)
BRUCE ALMIGHTY is the king
Adrian rules !
Tohle mi vzdycky ustreli usi. Scream for me Cech Republic
Perfect for St. George's Day.
It is a little different from the origin version of Wiliam Blake, but it is a beautiful one.
Mostly the same, but little changes here and there
He actually omitted some words, while adding some.
Beautiful. Love Blake. He could only see so far in his day. Jerusalem is the last thing we need here. But the point being the metaphor...
lol What ???
Can Jerusalem be rebuilded here, in this trivial time, in this land of fear?
Is fucking pure heavy metal 👍
:DFabulosa!!!!
It's mental fight, not "mental flight", and dens of Babylon, not "dense of Babylon".
just saying...
Yes, that must be true. The second solo is a typical Adrian Smith solo.
Roy-Z rules...
Bruce rules...
According to the Bible, Jerusalem was once the home of an ethnic group called the Jebusites, before King David conquered it. So Jerusalem has not always been a Jewish city.
Oh gods... people, leave politics to idiots in parliaments, listen to the MUSIC, it doesn't matter which god you believe in, music like this brings you closer to heavens!
water is the key of win
OMG just noticed this - no dislikes :-) :-)

E aqueles pés em tempos passados
caminharam sobre as montanhas verdes da inglaterra ?
Foi o santo cordeiro de deus que foi visto
sobre os pastos exuberantes da inglaterra ?

Don't think anybody has yet mentioned Arthur Brown(Crazy world of Arthur Brown) narrated the spoken verse at the end.
