maiden songs? Fear of the dark, number of the beast, run to the hills, Powerslave, The evil that men do, 2 minutes to midnight, Afraid to shoot strangers and Aces high jumps to mind immediately. So many years, so many albums... hard to pick a favorite

For The Greater Good Of God is a epic song

The smiles on your faces say it all....

Also, rest in peace Clive Burr, your contribution to this amazing band lives on. Thank you 🤘

I've seen Iron Maiden live MANY times...its my boyfriends favorite band of all time. This band is phenomenal live!!!Bruce's voice is unbelievable and the band completely rocks out!!😃love your new view on metal & your open mindedness.great reaction!!!😄

Fear Of The Dark, Ancient Mariner, Sign Of The Cross, The Trooper, The Clansman, Children Of The Damned, Afraid To Shoot Strangers. Always live with Iron Maiden as with Nightwish.

Helloo , I will recommend "Fear of the Dark" some live version probably from Santiago de Chile is the best. Just for a little info I am so proud that i saw them life in 1995 and this year both concerts in Bucharest.

The look of pure joy on your faces is priceless!

The automated subtitles are hilarious ;-) ("I'm waiting in my cold cell when the bell begins to chime" becomes "I'm waiting in my old sound when the all begins to shine")

As other's have said, Fear of the Dark is a great one, as are Rime of the Ancient Mariner and Number of the Beast. Great music all around. If you want more of a deep cut, check out Run to the Hills.

@@carthuscrass2343 Perhaps. Here in Sweden you either hear run to the hills, or the number of the beast on radio when they rarely play maiden at all... Occasionally you could hear 2 minutes to midnight and the trooper too, but not that often.

Congratulations on discovering the majesty of Iron Maiden! I've been listening to them for nearly 40 years and they are still my favourite band. Their music is quintessentially metal but I have met Goths, Punks, Rockers, Shoegazers and even Rappers who love their work. You can't beat good song writing irrespective of genre.

Great reaction. There is a message in Heavy Metal. It's been overlooked for decades. Great writing !

Not just message, great melodies, great musicians, great musicianship, a lot of skill and creativity

Great song, great reaction. For more melody, harmonies and good vocals i would recommend Helloween - Keeper of the seven keys.

Love the reaction when Bruce started the first long line of the song, truly a Maiden reaction ❤️

I saw them live in Brisbane, Australia over 40 years ago was a very good concert. I just turned 60 this year, I'm one stripe away from my black belt in BJJ, I put Iron Maiden on when we are rolling.

I´m 52yrs now and I remember like yesterday the first time when I heard Iron Maiden. It was winter 1981 and their second album Killers. Amazing band! And yet another band with one mastermind like Nightwish, this time it´s bassist Steve Harris (and Steve likes Nightwish very much!). Here you can see amazing drummer Clive Burr in action. Great stuff. Great reaction, thanks a lot!

Great reaction! A few more song suggestions (all live): Rime of the Ancient Mariner The Clansman Seventh son of a seventh son Dream of Mirrors The Evil that men do Aces high

Maiden released a new album last year and are currently touring, so still going strong - concerts have generations of fans, so plenty of people walking around young and old with Maiden gear. 😉

Beautiful couple. Now you have experienced the two greatest live bands on earth. Keep enjoying Maiden and Nightwish

This band still tours. Saw them in the 80's. And saw them 2 years ago. They haven't lost a step. Find their tour schedule. Go see them.

I've been following you lovely people on your Nightwish journey and very happy you've found Iron Maiden too. They are fellow Londoners and I saw them on this particular tour. Other popular songs - 'Run to the Hills' , 'The Trooper', '2 minutes to Midnight' , 'Aces High' and many more! Bruce Dickinson is a great guy and superb singer admired world wide. He is a qualified pilot and has flown the big Boeing Iron Maiden plane from Country to Country on world tours! Keep up the good work. 😃 🙂

Love your reaction and your personal interaction. Lot of love in the house, God bless❤️

Running Free, Powerslave, Wratchchild, Wasted Years, Aces High, Fear of the Dark, The Trooper, Run to the Hills. There’s way too many songs and they are all amazing. Maiden is such a great live band. I’ve seen them many times and it’s been epic each time 🤘🏻🤘🏻

Finally had time to search for this reaction. I was not disappointed. Excellent reaction as always. Love your channel!

Nice to SEE how enjoy de song You have to go to a Iron Maiden concert Will be amazing be there! 🤟🏼💯😉😉

MORE MAIDEN from you two! You’re interplay with each other is hilarious.

My favorite song by Iron Maiden. You’ll love them. They’re amazing ❤️

The first concert I ever went to was Iron Maiden. It was 1983 on their Piece of Mind tour. I was 15 years old.

Awesome one guys . Welcome to the Iron maiden family this would have to be one of their best songs and everybody is on point from the singer🎤, guitarist 🎸, drummer 🥁, Bass player🎸. I truly love this song from a musicians point of view on musicianship and how well everybody in this video performs considering how old the song is (coming up to 50yrs old and still going). The amazing thing about this song is we listen to the song from start to finish but never get told of what the crime is , it is just left out in the open for us to decide which is interesting.nice reaction guys love it.❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍🥝🇳🇿

There’s two guitarists and the song turned 40 in March 2022

Second time I saw Maiden was on this tour, a few days before this when they played in Bristol UK 🤘

It made my day seeing the shear joy on your faces ! Most people have recommended other songs here but the most well known are "number of the beast" and "run to the hills"

This is probably the most popular Iron Maiden song. The next is probably Fear of the Dark, needs to be played live (Do live at Rio) Maiden didn't get much radio play, they got popular from their great music and their extensive touring. I've been listening to Iron Maiden since 1982, at the age of 15. To give you a complete list of Iron Maiden recommendations, see my list below. Iron Maiden currently is: Bruce Dickinson - Vocals Born: August 7, 1958 (age 64 years) Started with Iron Maiden in 1981, left in 1993 and rejoined in 1999 and present singer Steve Harris - Bassist and Founder Born: March 12, 1956 (age 66 years), Started the band in 1975 and has never left Dave Murray - Guitarist Born: December 23, 1956 (age 65 years), 1976-1977, 1978- present Adrian Smith - Guitarist Born: February 27, 1957 (age 65 years), 1980-1990, 1999-present Janick Gers - Guiarist Born: January 27, 1957 (age 65 years), 1990 - present Nicko McBrain - Drums Born: June 5, 1952 (age 69 years), 1982 - present Highlight of songs I'd recommend are: From Iron Maiden album------ Phantom of the Opera - A must for live version Strange World (this one will be totally different Iron Maiden) From Killers album ------ Murders in the Rue Morgue (Very loosely influenced by Edgar Allen Poe's short story, a story of a fugitive being sought for murder) Genghis Khan (an instrumental - perfect for air drumming) Innocent Exile (continues the theme of Murders in the Rue Morgue of an unjustly accused fugitive) Killers (A journey into the twisted mind of a deranged killer) Prodigal Son(about a repentant man reminiscent of the prodigal son parable found in Luke 15 of the bible) Purgatory(lyrics of song read like a poem) Drifter (focuses on the possibility of new beginnings) From The Number of the Beast album------ Invaders (It graphically depicts the violence and horror of a defense against a Viking invasion) The Prisoner (based on the UK television series that ran briefly in the late 1960’s) 22 Acacia Avenue (The continuation of Charlotte the Harlot) The Number of the Beast (Inspired by a dream Bassist Steve Harris had after watching the movie the Omen2) Run to the Hills (about the European arrival in America told from the perspective of both the oppressed Cree and the invading Anglo-Saxon soldiers) Hallowed be Thy Name (about a man who is about to be put to death and what he goes through) ***You just did this one. From Piece of Mind------ Where Eagles Dare (based on an Alistair Maclean novel, (1967), and film (1968) about a WWII rescue of an American general from a Nazi stronghold in the Bavarian Alps Revelations (Starts with the Hymnal from Oh God of Earth and Alter, the next two verses on the Hindu philosophy, the third verse in Yoga a snake called Kundalini that lives at the base of your spinal cord, during meditation a spiritual entity is created symbolizing the transcendental union with God) Flight of Icarus (loosely based on the ancient Greek myth of Icarus) The Trooper (based on the Charge of the Light Brigade at the Battle of Balaclava 1854,which took place during the Crimean War) To Tame a Land (the song relays the story of Paul Atreides, Paul Muad'Dib, from the book Dune by Frank Herbert) From Powerslave album------ Aces High (about aircraft dog fighting between the British and German fighter pilots of WWII) 2 Minutes to Midnight - About the Doomsday clock for the End of the World Back in The Village (The continuation of the song The Prisoner) Powerslave (about an arrogant pharaoh in his dying hours, he can't understand why he's about to die and fights it in vain) Rime of the Ancient Mariner - (From the poem of the same name by Samuel Taylor Coleridge (story about about an ocean voyage) From Somewhere in Time album------- Wasted Years (A song about the admonition to appreciate the present and not to take things for granted) The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner (based on a short story of Alan Sillitoe which was made into a 1962 film Alexander the Great (About the story of Alexander the Great From 7th Son of a 7th Son (a concept album)------ Infinite Dreams (Detailing someone who is tormented by paranormal dreams and nightmares) The Evil That Men Do (Title taken from a quote in Shakespeare Julius Caesar but the song is unrelated) The Clairvoyant (relates the reflections of the 7th Son of the 7th Son on his life and his powers) From Fear of the Dark album------ Wasting Love (About the emptiness of relationships without love. Another Maiden ballad) Fear of the Dark (About being afraid of the dark and the things in the dark that might be there - absolute do a live performance for this one) From Brave New World album------ The Wicker Man (about the apathy of our modern society and our egotistic disinterest of what is happening until something happens to us) Ghost of the Navigator (The lyrics are a metaphor of life, with the ship sailing west towards the setting sun representing death) Brave New World (Loosely based on the 1932 novel by Aldous Huxley) Dream of Mirrors (Yet another song about reoccurring and maybe premonitory dreams) Out of the Silent Planet (Supposedly inspired by the 1956 science -fiction film Forbidden Planet) From Dance of Death album------ No More Lies (The lyrics deal with someone knows his time has come with the possibility of reincarnation) Dance of Death (Orinally inspired by Ingmar Bergman's 1957 film The Seventh Seal - Another one to do as a live performance) Paschendale (about the Battle of Passchendaele during WWI) From A Matter of Life and Death album------ Brighter than a Thousand Suns (About the dawn of the nuclear bomb age) The Longest Day (about the WWII Normandy Invasion) Out of the Shadows (Questioning the meaning of life) Up the Irons as us Maiden fans say.

One exception on the live songs. My favourite song, Alexander the Great, as far as I know is and never will be played live. The official video and song are more then worth it to react to (use with lyrics!)

This is the most popular song! When I listen to Maiden so does my neighbourhood!!!

I saw them on this tour. Iron maiden my second favorite band . Next to the best band of all time. You might of heard of them, Black Sabbath. Godfathers of metal hallowed be thy name y favorite Maiden song ever ever. Masterpiece.

I love Iron since I was 15 (i'm 53 now) and for the first time in my life I saw them a few days ago, here in Portugal, and it was the show of my life. After seing Dream Theater and Iron Maiden, I only want to see Nightwish so I can die in peace. Great reviews as always.

Someone earlier in the comments said they still tour and they do! I am seeing them in October here in Tampa, Florida. Crazy that I seen them in like 1987 or around that time, in Lakeland Florida and now seeing them again 35 years later.

hellow Merchant og Alba thank you for reacting to iron maiden; first time i heard Iron Maiden was i 1987. love this band. greetings from Denmark. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Rhyme of the ancient mariner I have seen Maiden live 27 times across 4 countries

This song is next level stuff. Bruce is one of the greatest Rock singers ever. Here is exhibit A. Cheers!

I loved you guys faces when the music kicked in😳😳😁😁 🤣🤣 Iron Maiden Are Legendary !🤘🏻

The world needs Maiden 🤘😜🤘🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Just discovered you both this evening. Liked, subscribed. You’re intelligent, insightful, clearly love each other. Great fun for me. Thanks.

U two are great toghether...... luv ur vibe

THE BEST BAND OF THE HISTORY

Greeting for Iowa, USA. Like Sabaton, Iron Maiden have done numerous songs that cover historical events. I would recommend these: Alexander the Great - Title pretty much says it all. The Trooper - Charge of the light brigade in the 1854 Crimea War Aces High - 1940 Battle of Britain The Clansman - William Wallace versus the British The Longest Day - 1944 invasion of Normandy Invaders - 10th century Viking invasion (warning, lots of gore) I would also recommend Fear of the Dark. Stay safe and well.

Welcome to the fandom of Iron Maiden... 40 years for me

Imagine being in that crowd and get to witness this being played for the first time!!!? I mean this is from the beast on the road tour -82

What a wonderfull reaction to one of my favourite bands. But if you like melodic metal may i suugest you try rainbow with stargazer. keep up making these great authentic reactions. love you guys Up the irons

Dominika, you were wondering how many youngsters actually know Iron Maiden. I would say: a lot. Iron Maiden concerts tend to be family events for some. By that I mean that you can find parents with kids as young as 10 years old on the concerts. Three weeks ago I was on the concert in Warsaw and beside me there was a father with, I would say, 12 yo son. The young one rocked hard!

Love ya both. Stay frosty.

They are the masters of heavy metal.

´The trooper' Is definitely a song to check out, it has all the trademark elements of their style.

Thanks, welcome to Iron Maiden

Rime of the ancient mariner - rock in rio !! Spectacular

...and a new journey begins. great!

You are never too old to attend a Metal concert! I am in my 50s and am going to see Iron Maiden live this coming October! Always enjoying your reactions. Cheers!!

Hi my frends please more. Iron maiden videos. I love your reaction videos😗😀😀😀

Oh,, also,, Iron Maiden & Queen & now also Nightwish are quite possibly the 3 best live bands to have ever graced our planet ( and ive seen a lot of bands in last 35yrs)..

Fear of the Dark, Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner, Run to the Hills are all great songs to react to. Love your reactions.

One of the best tunes ever..

Lol u are so fun...the husband, how do they play same all the time? Coz this is skill on instruments and is why i loooove metal.

loving the back and forth convo in this vid hahahahahaha love this reaction so much hahahahhaha

Good call. Actually a lot of the best rock/metal stars trained in classical or Opera growing up.

And after 2008 they had their own Boing 757 to goes to concerts in the whole world. At 2011 their own Jumbo Jet (Boing 747) and Bruce (the singer) was the pilot. But this video ist very old but good!

I've got the same exact face expresion when I am listening to Iron Maiden! My cousin forced me to listen I was 11-12...35years ago. I realy love them since!

Another awesome song is Rime of the ancient mariner. You’ll love it. By Iron Maiden 😊

UP THE IRONS !! Well chosen.......another nice Rabbithole to dive down 🙂 More of them ? Fear of the Dark, The Trooper, Number of the Beast, Run to the Hills, The Evil that Man do, 2 Minutes to Midnight, Aces High...ohh...and all the others....There is soo much... Good Choice ! This is Heavy Metal at its best ! And very good that you are open-minded enough that you try this stuff...as you say...Metal is more than just Noise...most of the time. Maiden is a very good example for that....Most of the Metal-Fans are more open minded than you think...

welcome to the wonderful, fantastic and brilliant world of heavy metal🤘🤘

And another rabbit hole is found :) So many great songs to delve into. You may have heard them on the radio in Europe, here heavy metal at that time very rarely maid mainstream daytime radio and there were no dedicated rock stations. If you've heard them at all then it would probably be something like The Trooper, Flight Of Icarus or Aces High. I'd highly recommend Rime Of The Ancient Mariner, based on the poem of the same name by Coleridge.

Great choice there guys! Iron Maiden always make good people happy! I saw them live a month ago and they were as spectacular as ever! Please react to some more of them. And always live versions. And to answer the question, yes it is the same music day after day in their concerts and songs that they know how to play in their sleep BUT it is never exactly the same. There are so many variables to a live concert. The band can be at its best or it can be tired or in foul mood, the crowd can be amazing or kind of meh....so many variables. So it is never the exact same thing. That's why some performances are better than others. It is live music. It is so unpredictable as it is to wake up everyday and go on with your life. We repeat certain things but it is never the same. I hope my huge answer helped a little. 😛

awesome seen them twice

Such a beautiful couple! I really enjoyed rockin out with you two kids!!! Kidding aside, I’m so here to observe your journey into the wonderful world of Metal . Please more Jinjer… really really such a talented beautiful band from Ukraine. Looking forward to more metal!!!

Nightwish, The Warning, now Maiden... What more could I ask more from you guys ?? 👍👍👍

You need a longer journey with Maiden.Try Rime of the ancient mariner next.Great reaction.Up the Irons!

Good reaction. Love you guys

Song- 22 Acacia ave.

the name was taken from a medieval torture instrument called an IRON MAIDEN. bruce dickinson the singer is a pilot. he has is own full size aeroplane with IRON MAIDEN written on the side

Bruce is still doing same singing now in his 60s🤗🇧🇻

That was a fun reaction guys. Thanks

Now you realise what us Heavy Metal fans knew all along....not just noise but songs from the heart with lots of meaning.

Children of the damned, fear of the dark, afraid to shoot strangers, and (the evil that man do)/list goes on an and on . Loving your channel, people discovering metal is such a moving thing for me, since most people I encounter in work or life in general has that view that it's just noise (granted, some of it is noise). Seeing people discover the beauty that for me has been obvious since childhood (thanks to my friends older brothers). It's captivating, and beautiful. There's so much to discover, and it feelslike you're both going to keep on that journey even without the react part of it, and thats also beautiful. But thanks for letting us tag along for the ride.

My first Album of the Band 1982 the Number of the Beast - I was 14 years old- 2022 - 40 years later with long hair like Bruce here in the Video - i love this Song

Best band ever. UP THE IRON'S!!!!!

Great reaction. I love your husband's innocent question. He must understand that these guys are professional musicians. Lots of training and practice. I love his desire to understand.

for what you said in the begining the band started in 1972 became "know" in england ind the last part of the 1975 begining of the 1976 and became know to the word in the 80S years!

They got me into heavy metal metal bands today you can tell there maiden fans this band kicks ass you will like it got to do fear of the dark live

Sure you already know this but Bruce (the singer) is also a pilot that flew the band around in their own 747 called Ed force one.

As you like this one, "Fear of the dark" live in Rio is a must, pure energy!

You guys would love Rime of the ancient Mariner! Live or Fear of the dark live from iron maiden!

Ah cool... I've been watching your Nightwish reactions, and only last night was I wondering if you'd start with Iron Maiden. Excellent. I'd recommend Fear of the Dark (Live Flight 666).... this version is far better than the Rock in Rio version which is often recommended, in my opinion.

I didn’t listen to metal when I was younger either, don’t feel bad. Live and learn

They practise at their respective homes and together that's how they know.

Well, this was a song from 1982 from a gig in 1982. I recommend you as next the song "Fear of the dark" from 1991 in one of the live versions which are on youtube and then a newer song called "When the wild wind blows" in a fantastic live version from Chile. There are so many extraodinary songs in the long career of Iron Maiden, but these from me highly recomended ones will show the genius of Iron Maidens metal style perfectly.

So funny that you guys are reacting to this now. I just started my Iron Maiden journey last night and have not been disappointed at all! Wicked band. Late to the party, but happy I’m there.

You two Crack me up 🤣🤣
