I really love this channel! You two have such a great dynamic. I get to enjoy both rediscovering songs from my past I'd almost forgotten about and witnessing somebody experiencing them for the first time, its quite beautiful and magical. I doubt you will remember but I've commented on several of your last videos recently and have just subscribed which are 2 things I hardly ever have done in all of my many many years on CZcams so thank you I love you both!
We read all comments and it's nice to hear that people like you are noticing our intentions! That makes us feel great and we appreciate your support 🤗😁
George WolfKain Dude, I am so jealous that you get to share great music with someone who experiences music like she does. It's the way I've always heard music, and just knowing that there's another person, somewhere in the world, who hears it the same way, is a comfort I never thought I'd get in my life. Thanks for sharing this experience with me.
@@theengagedfew I feel very lucky as well. What's funny is she doesn't understand why it's a big deal lol. The reason I made her start this channel was because I felt it was special and we should share it. I'm glad to hear you appreciate it 😁 We are in the process of editing her Holy Wars reaction and she is embarrassed to post it because she kinda lost lol. Of course I won't let that happen🤣👍👊
Awe, babyyy :*** I'm glad that I am not alone, too! Lol, I have had people tell me that I look and seem crazy! I have had people comment, asking me if I am emotionally "well" or of "sound mind." Basically, calling me crazy. I don't care what people think, really; I am, who I am. You are, who you are and that is beautiful :** (((hugs))) ♥
Damn the gaslighters who mock those who feel so deeply. I think maybe they’re so mean because, deep down, they know they repress their emotions and, because that’s so painful and unhealthy, they have to dress up their emotional suppression as virtue while mocking those like us. In the end, I even feel for them. I hope some day they get some of what we’ve got, you know? By the way, just sharing this from one metal loving emotional alien to another, the song “Bleak” by Opeth (not Otep, lol) is the first extreme metal song that made me weep. Maybe you will too. Take care ❤️
Harrison Dennis I’m from Wichita, but went to college with a guy from Sylvia Kansas who got me into Maiden. He had every poster and tee shirt and I asked him how the heck he ever found out about Maiden in tiny Sylvia? Your comment made me think of him, lol !
Harrison Dennis That’s SE isn’t it? I remember going to my kids wrestling tournament in Chanute, and I remember seeing Cherryvale on the map. Good fishing down that way also!
Hernan Cortes_Batista Bruce himself said that Adrian guitars work is the stiching of the band. That he can pick notes out of the air and make them work like no one else
I love them both about the same. i love a two guitar band where the guitarists have two distinct styles. Dave's style is pretty unique, one of those players whee you know it's him after about three notes.
Roadstar1602 This whole album is overlooked. I mean, yeah everyone knows Wasted Years but how many people do you hear talking about Deja Vu or Stranger In A Strange Land?
This is why this album is my favourite Maiden album, it is so full of energy and it is such a good opening song since it represents the entire journey from what this album will give to you.
I just want to thank you all so much for the continued love and support you give to our channel. I appreciate you all for accepting me and understanding me, as a (sometimes) overly emotional being ^_^ There is NO BETTER feeling in the world, than to feel accepted and understood. Some people come across my channel and over criticize me for being the way that I am. They do not understand me. But, thankfully, the majority of you, who watch our reactions and have subscribed to us, do. You understand and accept what we have to offer to this youtube world of reaction channels. It feels so wonderful =) You are all so beautiful. virtual hugs and kisses on the forehead to all of you. Peace. Love and light.
These are the Maiden songs you HAVE to react to: • Hallowed Be Thy Name • Rime Of The Ancient Mariner • 22 Acacia Avenue • Deja Vu • Infinite Dreams • Moonchild • When The Wild Wind Blows • Powerslave • If Eternity Should Fail and most importantly • Revelations
Bruno Silveira, Maiden has been on a long downhill slide since 1986. The 90's were particularly bad for them. The curse of trying to stay relevant in shifting public interests.
@@shawn.m.schmidt yeah, the Bailey phase was rough but they made some excelent songs like Clansman, sign of tje cross and the fear of the dark with returned Bruce is amazing
I love every single Maiden album including all the 90’s albums and the latest ones. Their latest album is awesome. Brave new world, a matter of life and death, and dance of death are all great too. No deterioration.
you two are awesome !! im shocked you didnt have her react to wasted years thats the gem of this album in my op . but this song was the reason i became a fan of maiden at the age of 13 back in 1993 around the time i walked the dark side music (hard rock and metal ) and never returned .heh but yeah this song takes into almost into this kickass comic book style story and it gives you this feeling like you should always live to the most cause time never stops for any one . but yeah great reaction .its really cool to see you react to this awesome side of music the dark side i like to call lol.
I loved this album, particularly the song Wasted Years. It brings back so many memories of childhood and teen years where I was first discovering the metal world and the band itself.
When you mentioned using the term of maturity to describe Iron Maiden's palette, the first thing I thought of was a well-aged, well-balanced vintage that never goes bad. Truly an inspiring band for all the metal genres.
This is me talking about Iron Maiden with my wife. I told her all about the style the songs the guitars and bass. She heard Iron maiden and loved it so much she even began playing Bass guitar.
Now you know how we children of the sixties felt when Black Sabbath came out. There was a band that didn't participate in love, flowers, or blatant anti-war songs. Sabs songs were full of anger and depression, that some of really suffered from. Of course they changed over the years, but didn't we all.
What a beautiful reaction really. I remember this song with a special love because, back in the day, my family and I lived on the countryside in Patagonia and we had no electricity and one day my father arrived with a generator and a stereo to absolutely blast this album and this was the first ever maiden song I heard and really the first piece of music I loved. I remember not knowing what I was hearing and being confused while in love. Really seeing you react like that reminded me of that day when I was 6 years old. And made me think of my life, feel proud of what I’ve achieved and how much I’ve fought to become a pilot always with maiden and Bruce accompanying me all along and you just have me crying like a little girl and I just needed to say thank you really, just thank you for making me feel like this.
Great reaction! You two have a great dynamic, Wolf seems to be more relaxed in the videos now and the conversation flows really well between him and Sistah. Most channels would normally hit the more popular tracks from this album like Wasted Years or Heaven Can Wait so it's good to see a fresh review like this (hit Deja Vu some time, that's a great song too). The galloping bass is a real signature of this song but the solos, especially Dave Murray's are beyond epic.
best. reaction. ever. SiT will be blasting in the car tomorrow. Too many Maiden tracks to choose from to even make a suggestion of the next reaction lol
Caaaaaaught Somewhere in Tiiiiimmeee I love You guys! Iron Maiden is my absolute favorite band, i can understand Wolf nerding of 😂😂😂 Could i send you a CD from my band?
Thank you guys! Well i am from Germany, so it would take a certain amount of time to arrive at your place! The Cd is currently in the process of pressing, but i will send you one when we got them!!!!! A big thank you guys!
This is the first video I see of you two, and damn, I was hooked! The passion when you describe Iron Maiden, when you talk about their songs, the way she reacts... it made me smash that like and subscribe button!! This is my favorite album from my favorite band, thanks for this reaction video! Keep rockin and UP THE IRONS!!
Iron Maiden is by far my favorite band they literally shaped my life. Im only 16 but my dad as always played iron maiden ever since i have been born. Idk if it was true but my dad said my first words was eddie. Up the Irons 🤘🤘
Blind Guardian - Mirror mirror Avantasia - Reach out for the light Theocracy - Hide in the fairy tale Kamelot - The Haunting ft Simone Simons Helloween - Straight out of hell Demon Hunter - Not ready to die Demons and Wizards - Fiddler on the Green
I would love for a symphonic metal reaction: NIghtwish - Ghost Love Score live at Wacken! And I love Iron Maiden so much, so I'm glad to see this reaction.
Very informative and I could feel how passionate Wolf is about the subject of Maiden! You should also cover the Paul Di'Anno era as well, it needs more love.
The first album really does have a much more punk vibe. Di'Anno's vocal style is as responsible for that as Steve's writing. Running Free sticks in my mind as being the most divergent from the future sound, but those first two albums are still special. The first band I ever got into as an actual fan (like, learning the names and being interested in the band rather than just the music). I'm in my early 40s and these guys have been with me all the way.
It was like watching a child on xmas morning the smile on your face when you showed your cds and talked about Iron Maiden. I have seen them live a few times and couple of them where early days in UK . When they where doing the rock clubs and small venues. One of the times after the show had finished they sat on edge of stage just drinking and chatting to me and a few of my friends just like a bunch of blokes talking in a pub. They asked if we enjoyed the show and where just right down earth and really nice blokes.Did I enjoy it, I had lumps all over my head from headbanging in the morning.
Love the manner in which you guys react to songs. This one in particular was fantastic... and hysterical. More Maiden is always a good thing. A classic like "Hallowed be Thy Name" or "Children of the Damned" I believe would be much enjoyed by Sistah. One of my personal favorites (both sonically and lyrically) is "Infinite Dreams" off of 7th Son. A nice change-up (and maybe something that even most fans may not have heard yet) is "paschendale". I don't know... such a great and talented band. I could think of 20 songs that I think you would have fun with, just off the top of my head. Anyway, rock on, guys.
Iron maiden was the first band i fell in love with as a kid. Id sit around looking at the artwork and listening to all the albums trying to find easter eggs lol. Its nice to see someone give this music the respect i think it deserves. Love All ur videos. Keep up the great work
I have similar reactions as Sistah to that dual guitar sound. I love it when bands do it right. Dave Murray and Aidrian Smith are a powerhouse duo (not to detract from Janick Gers' efforts and talent), just as Glen Tipton and K.K. Downing are for Judas Priest.
There have been 3 iterations of the airplane known as Ed Force One. All were commissioned from various airline companies and then reconfigured into combination cargo/passenger aircraft to carry crew and gear as well as stage equipment. The plane was piloted by Bruce (not Steve), who is a licensed airline pilot. So they don't OWN the aircraft. They basically lease different aircraft from different companies. A brilliant plan which enabled them to then tour countries that were previously logistically inaccessible. Theres a fantastic tour documentary on CZcams somewhere on the band as well but Wolf probably already knows that. If not, I highly recommend watching it. If you want a link, I'll be happy to provide it. Just let me know.
I love Sistah's reactions. That's how I feel to certain songs but I don't express it like she does. All the power to her!! Love your videos guys, I'm definitely subscribing. Maiden fan myself.
Hi there. Wolf perfectly explaind his love for Iron Maiden. Same how I feel and love them. This is a perfect reaction. Love you guy's. Thank you !!!! :)
HalfLifeSistah - My first experience was at the age of 12 when I did see them play as a support for Kiss here in the Netherlands. That was life changing for me. Nobody did bully me or did say wrong words. I was accepted the way I was. A young redheaded and somewhat chubby teen who was there to enjoy like a concert , like the rest of everybody there. It made me feel good. And the show I did see, the songs I heard and how the crowd reacted to Iron Maiden, WOW, so good !!! My mind was set at that moment. I became a Maiden addict. In June I did see them for the 48the time at the Graspop Festival in Belgium. Still going strong afer all these years. Me and my wife enjoy the concerts very, very much. If you guy's have the time and if you would be in Europe some day, drop a mail and we would love to show you around and go to a concert or festival. With something nice to eat and drink of cource. :) If you have time, react to Children of the Damned by Iron Maiden or Believe or Chance by Savatage. Cheers, Chris and Kwen
@ 11:50 / 11:55 There is only a few direct connections between albums ; Charlotte The Harlot, which was a song from the first (eponymous) IM album (1980), had a sequel song on The Number Of The Beast (1982), called 22 Acacia Avenue. Charlotte The Harlot was re-recorded (along with Prowler) during the Seventh Son sessions (1987/1988) and was released as a B-side on one of the album's singles. For me, it was nice to have these two songs with Dickinson doing the vocals. Also, on The Number Of The Beast, there was a song called The Prisoner (based on the TV show of the same name). Powerslave (1984) features a song connected to that concept called Back In The Village. The Prisoner contains a lyric in the chorus which goes : ♫ I'm not a number, I'm a free man ♫ Meanwhile, Back In The Village echoes that line in the last line of the final verse : ♫ I don't have a number, I'm a name ♫ Those are the only conceptually-linked examples between albums I can recall. Beyond that, one could probably draw connections between songs from different albums based on strong similarities
Guys, you need to see IRON MAIDEN live! It's something you will never ever forget! I saw them on 30th September in Freiburg (Germany) with my wife. It was one of the best concerts I've ever been.
As an East London guy I grew up a stone’s throw from the Ruskin Arms in Manor Park where Iron Maiden used to play fairly regularly. I used to hear them play through my bedroom window as a little kid. The weird thing was, years later, when I first got into metal music, I had an "Iron Maiden" LP that I was blasting away, and I was midway through the track "Transylvania" when I realised I had heard it before. I asked my dad about it, and he found it highly amusing and explained why… if you look on the back of the “Somewhere in Time" album you’ll see The Ruskin Arms on the back among all the other Easter eggs. The reaction was superb though, and it reminded me of the first time I heard "Revelations" and I actually stopped in the street when the lead guitar part kicked in I was so blown away by the energy and musicianship I was hearing. Anyway love the channel and will be subscribing. Cheers!
I watched this video for at least 10 times now and especially the track itself... I feel your emotions and Iron Maiden will always be a part of my life ❤️
I used to sit and geek out on the Somewhere in Time album art for hours just looking for stuff. It's one of my most favorite albums for that and the music. I've worn out like 8 copies on cassette and lost 4 CD copies over the last 30 plus years lol
My first Metal album back in 87 , all my brother had was this , Metallica RTL, and Piledriver Stay Ugly ...Iron Maiden won the day , and still Do to this day .
It's a great album but there is no real guitare solo that you would remember like in "Somewhere in time". But don't get me wrong: i really love 7th son. Just: Somewhere in time is .. better :o)
Wolfkain I can certainly understand your excitement !! they are one of the greatest bands and it def shaped my husband into the musician he is and a major part of our musical life too.
Seen Iron Maiden for the first time last year day after my 42nd birthday, something had always caused me to miss them. I took my 14 old nephew to see them along with Ghost and was an amazing show, Sistah you need to see them live the “Flight of 666” video will show you how much the other countries go wild for them.
You have GOT so show her the live version of Rime of the ancient mariner from Live after Death tour in 1984 at Long Beach Arena. For her to see the live stage set and the fog, pyro and the feel of the song, her mind will be blown 🤯
Omg I’m hooked on your channel. This just reminds me of all the reactions I had ( and still have) discovering the most glorious music form ever invented. People assume metal is noise but open you mind and you’ll see the beauty and kick in the soul from everything from punk to death. Up the irons. Keep listening sistah. There’s so much more to discover. Kudos
There is a reference to a Old night club In Baltimore Md called Hammerjacks. Every band in the 80’s played there. I’m from Baltimore and seen Anthrax and Fight their in 1994, last year it was open before they tore it down to build the Baltimore Ravens stadium.
Maiden structures the music to a story!. And capturing the emotion of the story musically is the art that many bands miss and or lack the ability to transpose to the listener to take them on the theatrical journey. They're awesome. Good review
Most fun I've had in a while with music. i like that you give her a good overview of what she will be listening too. And that you don't interject all YOUR impressions of what the song is. That's a rare gift. Thanks!
Mellow and heaviness together. Sistah made it bull's eye. Maiden is awesome because of the fact that they write harmonised guitar parts and use emotinal melodies within staying in heaviness territory. They are GREAT. And they are one of the BIG4 to me! You guys rule, love ya!
No, Sunshine! I really appreciate your comment! You know, I an always apprehensive about giving my opinion, lol because I don't express my thoughts on music well enough; your comment brought a smile to my heart. Being understood is a beautiful feeling 😀🤗😘💖
This is a great reaction ! This was the first metal album I ever owned and I got it the year it came out in 86' when I was 8...I still have the tape as well. Keep it coming !
I really love this channel! You two have such a great dynamic. I get to enjoy both rediscovering songs from my past I'd almost forgotten about and witnessing somebody experiencing them for the first time, its quite beautiful and magical.

The Lonliness of the Long Distance Runner from the same album!
Rumor has it that song is about Bruce Jenner.
IRON MAIDEN IS THE COOLEST METAL BAND TO EVER GRACE MUSIC.
Steve's galloping bass always blows my mind. No pick. Non stop. Its incredible.
Matthew Bousum and only use two fingers even thou he moves the whole hand
No band will ever beat iron maiden.
Finally some1 doing this epic song.
Damn I forgot how good this song is. It gave me chills still. Great choicer again guys and glad you enjoyed it Sistah.
This song is everything!😃💖
Adrian's Guitar Solo in this song is just unreal.....Dave is Awesome..., but Adrian, wow....

Yep. I knew she was going to orgasm when Adrian's solo kicked in. LOL.
and Adrian left and Janick took over, and he carved a niche for himself, for he was such a dexterous player himself
Wow, I'm so glad you picked this song! It's one of my favorite Maiden tunes, but most people don't recognize it.
The entire album, bro!
My favorite too
Roadstar1602 This whole album is overlooked. I mean, yeah everyone knows Wasted Years but how many people do you hear talking about Deja Vu or Stranger In A Strange Land?
Hard to pick a favorite Maiden song but this is definitely up there!

Taking the time to analyze the song is what makes you guys special. Love the honest and real reaction to the music. Much love to you both

• When The Wild Wind Blows
• Powerslave
• If Eternity Should Fail

Dance of Death!!!
Stranger in a strange land lml
The prisoner and alexander the great... The duellist, heaven can wait.... There are so many songs to suggest
For the greater good of god
Maiden transcends time,race,gender,emotion,
music genre,country and language. These guys got me into metal when I was young growing up in the 80s.😈🤘🤘
This album alone got me into metal and made me forever love maiden.
One of da best Maiden songs ever only to be followed by WASTED YEARS my favorite Maiden song of all time....😃😃😃😃😃
You really can't nerd out enough about Iron Maiden.
RIME OF THE ANCIENT MARINER would be a Good One -for the Story Telling
I like what they did with Charlotte Saga it spans three songs on different albums and it's an original story.
7 son of a 7 son is a conceptual album and an amazing work from Maiden
7th was really good. Somewhere in Time --a masterpiece is their peak. Maiden has been in downhill from there.

Iron Maiden is religion... Iron Maiden is the best band in the universe. Unreal...
Listen to Empire of the clouds and Alexander the Great
Great damn song!
I can only relate too well to that nerding out on maiden. Great experience to share with your followers :)
This is me talking about Iron Maiden with my wife. I told her all about the style the songs the guitars and bass. She heard Iron maiden and loved it so much she even began playing Bass guitar.
Please let her react to The Duelist by Maiden, the double harmonies on guitar will make her cry they're so great.
Iron Maiden - Flight of Icarus

Empire of the clouds is maiden's most overrated song by far
In your opinion maybe.In my opinion Fear of the dark is the most over rated Maiden song
@@zondaboy6493 criminally underrated you mean

Once your a Maiden fan it never go's away. Love your channel you two, keep em coming. 😀

Blind Guardian - Mirror mirror
Avantasia - Reach out for the light
Theocracy - Hide in the fairy tale
Kamelot - The Haunting ft Simone Simons
Helloween - Straight out of hell
Demon Hunter - Not ready to die
Demons and Wizards - Fiddler on the Green
I would love for a symphonic metal reaction: NIghtwish - Ghost Love Score live at Wacken!
And I love Iron Maiden so much, so I'm glad to see this reaction.
Modnar621 both bands are top of the class
Think they've done that already?
Making me cry listening to it too.... They're such an amazing band.
Wait till she gets to Wasted Years and Stranger in the Strange Land on the same album.
3 words:Alexander The Great
Very informative and I could feel how passionate Wolf is about the subject of Maiden! You should also cover the Paul Di'Anno era as well, it needs more love.
The first album really does have a much more punk vibe. Di'Anno's vocal style is as responsible for that as Steve's writing. Running Free sticks in my mind as being the most divergent from the future sound, but those first two albums are still special. The first band I ever got into as an actual fan (like, learning the names and being interested in the band rather than just the music). I'm in my early 40s and these guys have been with me all the way.
It was like watching a child on xmas morning the smile on your face when you showed your cds and talked about Iron Maiden. I have seen them live a few times and couple of them where early days in UK . When they where doing the rock clubs and small venues. One of the times after the show had finished they sat on edge of stage just drinking and chatting to me and a few of my friends just like a bunch of blokes talking in a pub. They asked if we enjoyed the show and where just right down earth and really nice blokes.Did I enjoy it, I had lumps all over my head from headbanging in the morning.
Love, love, love her reaction! She can visualize and feel the beauty of the song! Absolutely wonderful!
Love the manner in which you guys react to songs. This one in particular was fantastic... and hysterical. More Maiden is always a good thing. A classic like "Hallowed be Thy Name" or "Children of the Damned" I believe would be much enjoyed by Sistah. One of my personal favorites (both sonically and lyrically) is "Infinite Dreams" off of 7th Son. A nice change-up (and maybe something that even most fans may not have heard yet) is "paschendale". I don't know... such a great and talented band. I could think of 20 songs that I think you would have fun with, just off the top of my head. Anyway, rock on, guys.
😊 Thank you, love💖
My favorite Maiden Album and one of best songs of the album! Please do a reaction for Helloween "Eagle Fly Free"
Such a genuine reaction.. I still feel like that everytime i hear the song, even after all those years... enjoyed watching you :)
Iron maiden was the first band i fell in love with as a kid. Id sit around looking at the artwork and listening to all the albums trying to find easter eggs lol. Its nice to see someone give this music the respect i think it deserves. Love All ur videos. Keep up the great work
Love it...best traditional metal band of all time. Book of Souls is a brilliant album.
I have similar reactions as Sistah to that dual guitar sound. I love it when bands do it right. Dave Murray and Aidrian Smith are a powerhouse duo (not to detract from Janick Gers' efforts and talent), just as Glen Tipton and K.K. Downing are for Judas Priest.
There have been 3 iterations of the airplane known as Ed Force One. All were commissioned from various airline companies and then reconfigured into combination cargo/passenger aircraft to carry crew and gear as well as stage equipment. The plane was piloted by Bruce (not Steve), who is a licensed airline pilot. So they don't OWN the aircraft. They basically lease different aircraft from different companies. A brilliant plan which enabled them to then tour countries that were previously logistically inaccessible. Theres a fantastic tour documentary on CZcams somewhere on the band as well but Wolf probably already knows that. If not, I highly recommend watching it. If you want a link, I'll be happy to provide it. Just let me know.
I love Sistah's reactions. That's how I feel to certain songs but I don't express it like she does. All the power to her!! Love your videos guys, I'm definitely subscribing. Maiden fan myself.
Killer tune! Killer reaction! Love the music on this album!
Hi there. Wolf perfectly explaind his love for Iron Maiden. Same how I feel and love them. This is a perfect reaction. Love you guy's. Thank you !!!! :)
Awe, baby thank you so much We love you!😀🤗😘💖
HalfLifeSistah - My first experience was at the age of 12 when I did see them play as a support for Kiss here in the Netherlands. That was life changing for me.
Nobody did bully me or did say wrong words. I was accepted the way I was. A young redheaded and somewhat chubby teen who was there to enjoy like a concert , like the rest of everybody there. It made me feel good.
And the show I did see, the songs I heard and how the crowd reacted to Iron Maiden, WOW, so good !!!
My mind was set at that moment. I became a Maiden addict.
In June I did see them for the 48the time at the Graspop Festival in Belgium. Still going strong afer all these years.
Me and my wife enjoy the concerts very, very much.
If you guy's have the time and if you would be in Europe some day, drop a mail and we would love to show you around and go to a concert or festival. With something nice to eat and drink of cource. :)
If you have time, react to Children of the Damned by Iron Maiden or Believe or Chance by Savatage.
Cheers, Chris and Kwen

There is only a few direct connections between albums ;
Charlotte The Harlot, which was a song from the first (eponymous) IM album (1980), had a sequel song on The Number Of The Beast (1982), called 22 Acacia Avenue. Charlotte The Harlot was re-recorded (along with Prowler) during the Seventh Son sessions (1987/1988) and was released as a B-side on one of the album's singles. For me, it was nice to have these two songs with Dickinson doing the vocals.
Also, on The Number Of The Beast, there was a song called The Prisoner (based on the TV show of the same name). Powerslave (1984) features a song connected to that concept called Back In The Village.
The Prisoner contains a lyric in the chorus which goes :
♫ I'm not a number, I'm a free man ♫
Meanwhile, Back In The Village echoes that line in the last line of the final verse :
♫ I don't have a number, I'm a name ♫
Those are the only conceptually-linked examples between albums I can recall. Beyond that, one could probably draw connections between songs from different albums based on strong similarities
Guys, you need to see IRON MAIDEN live! It's something you will never ever forget! I saw them on 30th September in Freiburg (Germany) with my wife. It was one of the best concerts I've ever been.
As an East London guy I grew up a stone’s throw from the Ruskin Arms in Manor Park where Iron Maiden used to play fairly regularly. I used to hear them play through my bedroom window as a little kid. The weird thing was, years later, when I first got into metal music, I had an "Iron Maiden" LP that I was blasting away, and I was midway through the track "Transylvania" when I realised I had heard it before. I asked my dad about it, and he found it highly amusing and explained why… if you look on the back of the “Somewhere in Time" album you’ll see The Ruskin Arms on the back among all the other Easter eggs. The reaction was superb though, and it reminded me of the first time I heard "Revelations" and I actually stopped in the street when the lead guitar part kicked in I was so blown away by the energy and musicianship I was hearing. Anyway love the channel and will be subscribing. Cheers!
I had the Eddie coming through poster in the old office. I really liked that!
I watched this video for at least 10 times now and especially the track itself... I feel your emotions and Iron Maiden will always be a part of my life ❤️
Subscribed. You two are awesome. I got some of my friends into maiden and they love them. I'll be going to their concert this summer! Rock on !
Infinite Dreams next! Or blood brothers
I used to sit and geek out on the Somewhere in Time album art for hours just looking for stuff. It's one of my most favorite albums for that and the music. I've worn out like 8 copies on cassette and lost 4 CD copies over the last 30 plus years lol
My first Metal album back in 87 , all my brother had was this , Metallica RTL, and Piledriver Stay Ugly ...Iron Maiden won the day , and still Do to this day .
Hearing you talk about all these little metal details is like a journey to my youth.
You should play 7th son of a 7th son for her, I think she will go insane from the time and riff changes.
Ooh, she'd LOVE the Clairvoyant!
It's a great album but there is no real guitare solo that you would remember like in "Somewhere in time". But don't get me wrong: i really love 7th son. Just: Somewhere in time is .. better :o)
Wolfkain I can certainly understand your excitement !! they are one of the greatest bands and it def shaped my husband into the musician he is and a major part of our musical life too.
Heatherrr!! Hi, Sunshine! ^_^////
Thank you for the comment 🤗😘💖
Nerd away, comrade! Same, 💯. Maiden started my journey on the road to metal.
1st time into this channel and I just love the honest reaction!
Seen Iron Maiden for the first time last year day after my 42nd birthday, something had always caused me to miss them. I took my 14 old nephew to see them along with Ghost and was an amazing show, Sistah you need to see them live the “Flight of 666” video will show you how much the other countries go wild for them.
I would love to see then live, butt ONLY if I could get good seats!🙆🏾♀️💖
You have GOT so show her the live version of Rime of the ancient mariner from Live after Death tour in 1984 at Long Beach Arena. For her to see the live stage set and the fog, pyro and the feel of the song, her mind will be blown 🤯
Another significant change is that in the 2nd Bruce era they also swtich to 3 guitars instead of 2, which add to those layers you spoke in this video.
Omg I’m hooked on your channel. This just reminds me of all the reactions I had ( and still have) discovering the most glorious music form ever invented. People assume metal is noise but open you mind and you’ll see the beauty and kick in the soul from everything from punk to death. Up the irons. Keep listening sistah. There’s so much more to discover. Kudos
There is a reference to a Old night club In Baltimore Md called Hammerjacks.
Every band in the 80’s played there.
I’m from Baltimore and seen Anthrax and Fight their in 1994, last year it was open before they tore it down to build the Baltimore Ravens stadium.
Can't wait for a "Hallowed be thy Name" reaction :)
You guys are hilarious. Her reaction is priceless, he says "no big deal, just your average Iron Maiden song" lol.
Such an awesome reaction, HLS you react the way most of us feel when listening to these great songs.So glad you're able to discover!
Thank you, sugah! Please tell this, to the few people that think my reactions are fake and over exaggerated, lol😉💜
@@HalfLifeSistah Those who claim your reactions are fake are just too scared to show their own emotions and can't believe that you can.
Wolf I feel ya...I get the same way about Iron Maiden. There is so much to them...legends and still underappreciated.
i spent so many hours looking at the detail on the Somewhere in Time cover. Still not sure i've seen everything that's on there
Maiden structures the music to a story!. And capturing the emotion of the story musically is the art that many bands miss and or lack the ability to transpose to the listener to take them on the theatrical journey. They're awesome. Good review
Most fun I've had in a while with music. i like that you give her a good overview of what she will be listening too. And that you don't interject all YOUR impressions of what the song is. That's a rare gift. Thanks!
Best album cover ever! Ive actually learned a couple this if never seen in it! Thanks and you're a lucky dude
Mmmmmwwwwaaaahhh! 😘💖
Up The Irons!
Keep up the good work, guys
Mellow and heaviness together. Sistah made it bull's eye. Maiden is awesome because of the fact that they write harmonised guitar parts and use emotinal melodies within staying in heaviness territory. They are GREAT. And they are one of the BIG4 to me! You guys rule, love ya!
No, Sunshine! I really appreciate your comment! You know, I an always apprehensive about giving my opinion, lol because I don't express my thoughts on music well enough; your comment brought a smile to my heart. Being understood is a beautiful feeling 😀🤗😘💖
But big 4 are trash metal, not NWOBHM OR just heavy metal
This is a great reaction ! This was the first metal album I ever owned and I got it the year it came out in 86' when I was 8...I still have the tape as well. Keep it coming !
