You should listen to corporate Avengers, but Iron Maiden is the greatest band ever, corporate Avengers is a Native American band, just like Redbone , you'd like them to
@@BillyVicenti and there's another song called Cherokee, by Europe, when you Google it you might have to put Europe the band, corporate Avengers you should listen to the song that says the Bible is bullshit shit, , but all their songs are great, and if it's possible you should let me know what you think about corporate Avengers
as a native american, this is the song that drew me into Iron Maiden. now try 'Rime Of The Ancient Mariner" by Maiden next. its another history story telling type of song
When this song came out I was surprised that a metal band (or anyone for that matter) would do a song about us Native people and an English band at that. Only person I knew of at the time that did this was Johnny Cash. No other American person or band wrote a song like this. Needless to say Iron Maiden is one of my favorite bands.
@@ChildofGod474 You're correct. I forgot all about that, been awhile since I listened to Stained Glass album. I knew there was a reason the IM and JP are my favorites. NWoBHM 🤘😎🤘
Well, it does seem Bruce(in interviews) is pretty critical of Anerica so much so that there were at one small point protest at their contest based on that. Yes, the "Satanism" themes caused most of the protest, but that interview brought out a few more critic's.
@@davidleeroth784 The song was written by Steve Harris, as is much of Maiden's stuff. The song doesn't take a side, it tells a story. That's what makes Iron Maiden great, they're not colouring ideas with their opinions; but telling epic stories. It's very fitting for heavy metal.
@@unbrokensoul35I could be money that there has been at least one history teacher who has narrated that song in class. Granted, not a LOT of money, but there's gotta be at least one.
Thanksgiving was made a holiday by Abraham lincoln. It was inspired by a letter from Winslow depicting the first harvest celebration dinner in the first year of the Plymouth colony. A plague had beset the colony milky 78 percent of it's women. The Indians weren't invited until they showed up doing their diplomacy rounds as they did with other tribes after harvest. The idea of giving thanks for what you have and celebrating life is not evil nor marred by american indian history. It is not an Indian holiday taken by Americans . Plenty of harvest celebrations took place year after year across the world. People can demonize our ancestors all they want but we wouldn't be here without them nor would we have the values we have today learning from mistakes in the past
Iron Maiden have never been as huge in the USA as they are in the rest of the world. It's a little strange really because across large parts of Europe, Central and Southern America, Iron Maiden are the undisputed kings of heavy metal. In my opinion, this difference stems from Maiden being a British band. This fact alone would not usually be an issue, however, Maiden's songs often make reference to British poetry, wars and history, while their stage shows include excerpts from Winston Churchill's iconic WW2 speech and their are plenty of Union Jack flags in the stage props. I feel like the average American metal fan just doesn't culturally connect with it. Metallica and Megadeth, who incidentally are both American, may be more popular in the US, but for sheer talent, the variety and complexity of their music, the storytelling, and the consistent quality of their albums (even to the current day), Iron Maiden are head and shoulders above anything else in the heavy metal genre.
@King Nothing Have you heard the 5 classic studio albums Iron Maiden have released ‘this century’? When was the last time Metallica released a good album? Be honest.
I'm tired of everyone being down on Thanksgiving. When the Pilgrams came they lived in peace with the local tribe for like 50 years. It wasn't until Spain, England and France saw them as a weeker race and decided to take their land. All the bad things happened later. The Pilgrams would not have survived without the help of the native people
Actually, they happened earlier. Spain and Portugal effed with what is now South and Central America well before the English "pilgrims." But this song is more about the American westward expansion that happened much later.
Man has been conquering man since the first day there was more than one man. The Indians didnt have it any worse than hundreds of millions before them. The Indians themselves were conquering each other long before Europeans got here. NO RACE KIND OR CREED IS INNOCENT OF WAR OR CONQUERING NEIGHBORS. If one should feel guilt...ALL should feel guilt....every single one of us.
Yup, and it's a nasty story. The United States are quick to call out others around the world for sh*tty behavior, but to be perfectly frank the U.S. mastered the art of conquest through genocide, annexation by invasion etc to an extent that makes Washingtons complaints today sound like badly timed jokes.
There's a video of a guy that goes up to people wearing band shirts asking them what their favorite songs are and it's hilarious. When you mentioned that, i could imagine you making it into one of those videos lol
Fun fact: the first contact between the pilgrims and Native Americans came when an Abenaki named Samoset walked up to a group of settlers, and, in perfect English, welcomed them and asked if they had any beer.
It’s just a story of what happened in the past. Maiden is the best at story telling converted into a song🔉 they’re not trying to hurt anyone’s feelings, there just getting into a history lesson . That’s it ! Great review.
Iron Maiden loved the native americans and wrote several songs about them. 7th son of the 7th son is a native american thing and they wrote several songs about native american beliefs!!!
Thanksgiving was a day where natives and settlers came together and feasted and celebrated and gave thanks together. Yes bad things happened to the natives but that has nothing to do with celebrating thanksgiving. With all the bad in the world it’s important we remember the good. Celebrating the good is not ignoring the bad. Don’t hijack thanksgiving to spread discord
Iron Maiden is an Epic metal band! Glad you're reacting to them. Side note for you though that explosion in the intro was great but couldn't make out what you were saying, might need to tweak that for future videos ;) Take care! would recommend the trooper by Iron Maiden if you want more.
The original lyric was ‘the only good injun is dead’ but Bruce, the singer, changed it to ‘the only good injun is Tame or tamed (my ears aren’t that good and I don’t have the lyrics in front of me) So they were well aware of the tender subject matter and examined each word carefully. I think it both brings awareness and states what happened. I don’t think it whitewashes history. I don’t think it hides anything. I think both sides are presented truthfully. I think the band’s lyrics clearly are sympathetic to the Native American. The white man from across the sea is shown in a pretty damning and negative light. Still... They really just tell a historical story and let the listener take from it what they will. If the band has or had an agenda with this song then it was slight and yet morally sound. It’s a fantastic song. One of their few semi ‘commercial’ endeavors, which accounts for the shorter solo and bridge section. Most of their material was never considered mainstream radio friendly at the time. Those awesome bridges and solos take up too much time for a 3n1/2 time slot on the radio. All the more reason to love and respect Maiden. Up the Irons!!!
I was 14 or so the first time I heard this. "White man came across the sea, he brought us pain and misery". I didn't know what to make of it, but it was a white man, in a very white band, singing it, so it definitely caught my attention. Turns out that macabre imagery aside, Maiden was quite a literate band, and I ate up all that stuff like there was no tomorrow. Back in the day I used Type II Chrome 90 minute tapes. It was Maiden, who released a series of records that were 51 minutes long (the most you could fit on a single side of a 90 minute tape) that got me to move up to Type IV Metal tapes. Amazing.
long story dude. i'll make it as shot as possible. in the beginning the late 1400's and early 1500's indians didn't like the white man invading there turf. ( indians also gave us the name white man and white people ) fights broke out between them. after a while though pilgrims seemed harmless enough only a few settlement and they lived much like the indians did, so they became friends. once they became friends they started trading with each other, and one day they decided to celebrate there friendship with a feast. and both sides gave food and offerings to the feast. both sides were also thankful to have piece between one another. so they called the feast thanks giving, and they lived happily ever after. well, for about the next 50 years or so until the white man flooded the land and decided they wanted it all. but that's a story for another time.
As a Native American this is a cool song. But Iron Maiden has shit ton of cool shit. Steve Harris the bassist wrote most of the songs and is a good historian and story writer. Most of their catalog is based on history. They are good live and are still playing. The band is older than me. I am 40. Black Sabbath is my #1, Maiden is a close second.
Hey man, i had the chance to attend iron maiden in my hometown (Berlin) when i was 14 (live after death-tour). My mother didn't allow it... i was so mad for many years but also loved her. What most people don't know: the CD of that tour contains much less songs than the double-cassette-edition does (i had it). The livesongs on that cassette sound much better than the versions before and after - so if you want the best: search for these
YES!Thanks for speaking up! T- totally correct down to the food being over-rated!It absolutely is2 bring awareness!They need to tell the truth about lots of things in the history books!One of your best reactions💛✌
not about the pilgrims, more about the western expansion and how the natives were treated.......if you want solos listen to Rime of the Ancient Mariner
I'm here commenting WAY back. But give a listen to "Pachendale" same artist. Also, so fuggin happy to see some Native/First Nations people in these comments!
Unfortunately, it never occurred to my ancestors to try and cohabitate with people in foreign lands. It's was all about conquering and dominating. I mean, wtf?
My all time favorite iron maiden song is "Alexander The Great".I think the second is "Caught Somewhere In Time". You should check them out. The "Alexander The Great" guitar solo and the "Caught Somewhere In Time" opening giving me chills everytime :D
@@Malfehzan Thankfully, it was about the C-ones, not the K--ones. I think Bruce wouldn't have much good to say about the latter, though I think the Clansman was actually written when he was away from the band.
Iron maiden was in my top ten bands to listen to growing up. Acdc, led zeppelin, and black sabbath/ ozzy being my top 3. Next tier having Metallica, megadeth, Pantera, and iron maiden. Iron maiden has a pretty big fan base. They earned it.
All hail the metal GODS! Those solos will melt your face bro! And lay off thanksgiving food now man. We're both Americans here. I mean for real if you're family's been here for more than three generations your part native. We all got effed in the past. Dont take it out on the food bro. Food is innocent. To hell with the holiday but lay off of the food. And you really need to do a.Devin Townsend reaction. Seriously my man your falling behind,everyone else already did it.
The first concert I ever went to without a chaperone was Iron Maiden. With 1/4 Native (Mexican) ancestry, this song always resonated with me and is my favorite Maiden song. No one wants to admit to the genocidal treatment the US and other countries in the Americas made towards natives living here. I happen to live in the state with the first government sanctioned war against a native group and the first Native American reservation (Pequots 1637). They weren't recognized as a tribe until 1983.
As a Brit I apologise for us starting it but you lot in America ended it. We did burn the capitol to the ground and I don’t apologise for that though...
I'm sure you are noticing, most of their songs are epic narratives and ideas, capturing the feelings and stories like literature. Not always comfortable or judgmental of history and life.
Number of the beast by Iron madien is another one where people think its about satanic things but its about a settler witnessing a American indian tribe ritual
Speaking about Iron Maiden giving history lessons: Aces High (Battle of Britain), The Trooper (about the Crimean war, but more about warfare in general), Alexander the Great (self explanatory) etc. Also a lot of Iron Maiden songs are based on literary material: Rime of the Ancient Mariner (Coleridge), The Phantom of the Opera, Murder on the Rue Morgue (E.A.Poe), The Flight of the Icarus (Greek mythology), Revelations (Bible) etc.
Natives loved us some Iron Maiden back on the reservation. Don't forget we're still here fighting. Thank you all for your support.
Listen to Indians from Anthrax, same messege.
You should listen to corporate Avengers, but Iron Maiden is the greatest band ever, corporate Avengers is a Native American band, just like Redbone , you'd like them to
@@hashmoncrief6965 Thanks! I'll give it a listen. I've not heard of corporate Avengers.
@@BillyVicenti and there's another song called Cherokee, by Europe, when you Google it you might have to put Europe the band, corporate Avengers you should listen to the song that says the Bible is bullshit shit, , but all their songs are great, and if it's possible you should let me know what you think about corporate Avengers
That's cool to know. Up the irons!!!
as a native american, this is the song that drew me into Iron Maiden. now try 'Rime Of The Ancient Mariner" by Maiden next. its another history story telling type of song
It's originally a Poem by Samuel Taylor Coleridge from 1797.
Daanzho my fellow natives. I had big Iron Maiden poster in my room as a kid.
Much respect to all the beautiful native Americans💛✌

I learned more history from Maiden than all of high school. It’s both sides of the history
Especially Alexander the Great
@@unbrokensoul35I could be money that there has been at least one history teacher who has narrated that song in class.
Granted, not a LOT of money, but there's gotta be at least one.
For more Iron Maiden:
"Fear of the Dark" live in Rio
"Stranger In A Strange Land"
"The Trooper"
"Alexander The Great"

@King Nothing Absolutely zero percent accurate. Maybe 25 years ago you could make a case for it, not now.
@King Nothing Have you heard the 5 classic studio albums Iron Maiden have released ‘this century’? When was the last time Metallica released a good album? Be honest.
Very well said!!
@King Nothing that’s nice but when was the last time Metallica released a good album with new material? 1992?
BULLSHIT!!! TRY TELLING THAT TO EVERYONE THAT WENT TO SOLD OUT ARENAS ON THE LEGACY OF THE BEAST TOUR!
Bruce has one of the best most iconic voices I’ve ever heard. He was in fact trained in opera so im told
I'm tired of everyone being down on Thanksgiving. When the Pilgrams came they lived in peace with the local tribe for like 50 years.

Iron Maiden was my first metal concert, after that I wore the are bands like Bruce whenever I would go to any metal concert.
Oh history class yes here for it.
Let's goooo
You must react to Fear of the Dark: Live in Rio. Best Iron Maiden live performance ever.
This is the perfect thanksgiving song , up the irons 🤟🏼🤘🏼🤟🏼🤘🏼
Caught Somewhere in Time by Iron Maiden has my favorite solo of theirs
Man has been conquering man since the first day there was more than one man. The Indians didnt have it any worse than hundreds of millions before them.

If one should feel guilt...ALL should feel guilt....every single one of us.
You need to hear Wasted Years its one of their best songs
I think this song is more about the Westward Expansion and the “removal” plans the US Government had for the Plains Indians.
Yup, and it's a nasty story. The United States are quick to call out others around the world for sh*tty behavior, but to be perfectly frank the U.S. mastered the art of conquest through genocide, annexation by invasion etc to an extent that makes Washingtons complaints today sound like badly timed jokes.
Definitely about Manifest Destiny.

Iron Maiden always sings about something, although we have issues yes issues that we shouldn't have. God help us through this AMEN.
This song was about awareness and also changed perspectives between both sides with the chorus.
Pasts me that turkey leg.
Yes yes they should play this in schools lol . Kneel ,stand or run . Iron Maiden only care about the music and the msg . How you enjoy it is up to you
"Yeah I Said it" 🤣🤣👊🏼👊🏼
Fantastic REaction & Review. Seriously, great interpretation even analyzed the beats/rythym with the story going on. Subscribed.

We feel the same way @ Columbus Day😡😡😠😠😠
respect...now know
As a Brit I apologise for us starting it but you lot in America ended it. We did burn the capitol to the ground and I don’t apologise for that though...
Listen to number of the beast.
You want a bitchin guitar solo... listen to Caught Somewhere in Time!
Rime of the ancient mariner
I'm sure you are noticing, most of their songs are epic narratives and ideas, capturing the feelings and stories like literature. Not always comfortable or judgmental of history and life.
Don't know if you're down for more Garth Brooks, but "More than a memory." Keep up the good work
It wasn't about pilgrims it's about the army and the indians
Number of the beast by Iron madien is another one where people think its about satanic things but its about a settler witnessing a American indian tribe ritual
Solo 8.9/10
Speaking about Iron Maiden giving history lessons: Aces High (Battle of Britain), The Trooper (about the Crimean war, but more about warfare in general), Alexander the Great (self explanatory) etc. Also a lot of Iron Maiden songs are based on literary material: Rime of the Ancient Mariner (Coleridge), The Phantom of the Opera, Murder on the Rue Morgue (E.A.Poe), The Flight of the Icarus (Greek mythology), Revelations (Bible) etc.
Where Eagles Dare is also about dogfighting and flying
Notice how the drums and bass sound like galloping horses
Where Eagles Dare is another story in a song /,,/
Flight of Icarus is another must hear. A story from Greek mythology. Check it out.
Anyone knows when Vikings arrived in North America. Was it 800 something or the year 900 something???
Thanks. 🙂
Stay safe 🤘🇺🇸🇩🇰🤘
You gotta listen to Number of the Beast by Iron Maiden.
Dude you need to check out some RUSH!!!!! Tom Sawyer, Limelight, Spirit of the Radio!!
They came from Spain for gold and other riches. The pilgrims came a little later.
My favorite is Flight of Icarus.
You better not tell your mom on thanksgiving the food is overrated!
And you know this because?...where you there? I thought as much.
Hey! Can you react to Iron Maiden The Trooper? Its one of my personal favorites!
It’s funny, no one ever mention the Dance of Death album but every song on it is amazing!
Guitar solos 👍....how about the bassist KILLING it?🔥🔥🔥
Hey it would be cool if you check out these.
Genesis- Land of Confusion
Disturbed - Land of Confusion
Damn! You need to brush up on history!
You do realize that the fight between the native Americans and the white man only started once government was established little food for thought
