I once saw Blaze with Wolfsbane years ago when they supported Saxon, I was right down the front wearing a Maiden shirt and he was eyeballing me alot, then at the end of their set he grabbed me and gave me a big old hug! Standing in Dickinson's shadow and trying to fill the big shoes he left behind is surely a daunting task that would make most of the haters cry and give up. But Blaze gave it 110% and I will always have nothing but respect for that man.

I saw Maiden in Sept in Oakland, CA. I loved the setlist. The fact that Sign Of The Cross and The Clansman were included to me means they totally respect the song and for Bruce to sing Blaze’s material my hats off that is respect big time. Bruce will always be the top singer but not enough due is paid to Blaze. I have three Maiden discs in my car right now. Number of the Beast, The X Factor, and Virtual XI. Hail Blaze and up the Irons everyone!!

Blaze had great music moments... I do respect him x his bravery at the time he was in MAIDEN... Cheers and Happyness Blaze !!!

Despite that fact Mr Bailey never has or never will sing in tune ,The sight of Steve Harris sprinting across the stage with a heavy old Fender Precision Bass guitar kept Maiden Alive in the 90's and still to this day,Harry is also a very nice man who stayed two hours after the show in liverpool sign autographs

I don´t care what you might think, I love Blaze´s voice, to me it seems like a missed opportunity somehow, to many of you this is their worst era, but to me it will always be a " golden era " if the band only lowered their key to meet his vocal range, you would have been blown away, compare his voice of the X-Factor songs with the Trooper....given time he would have been awesome in Maiden....Please check out there official videos : Lord of the Flies, Futureal, Man on the Edge, Afraid to shoot Strangers or even Angel and the Gambler, or his solo career and I promise, THERE is power, anger, emotions and raw edge all right .....

I'm just not into Blaze-era stuff; not a fan of his voice (especially live, this being a great example), the songs or his stage presence. BUT not going to bag on anyone else for being into those songs etc. - It's all good. He seems like a nice bloke and having to follow Bruce is just so hard. The way I look at it we might not have Bruce in the band now had it not been for Blaze - Who knows? The other thing is that it was a weird time for Metal - I remember having been a die-hard Maiden fan since POM I started to struggle a bit when No Prayer came out and then after that without Bruce I lost interest; they were trying to stay up to date but it wasn't happening for me. Here we are now, though, with Maiden still smashing it, still showing everyone how you do it right, and I count myself as so fortunate that I've had the privilege of seeing them and living with that music in my life for the last 35+ years, whoever was in the band. My son is 4 and I just hope they carry on long enough for him to be able to come and see them with me....

It's the bands fault as they didn't tune down, he asked and Steve said no, why would they refuse. The sound guy kept everything the way Bruce had it, blaze said he couldn't hear dave in his ears and he had to much bass but he just got ignored, which is why he stands by dave's monitor to be able to hear him. The start of virtual xi tour they had new sound guy who listened to blaze, he had expensive in ear monitors so he could hear everything, Steve said he was singing great, in Greece after what Steve said was a great gig and blaze sounded great blaze took out his monitors and put them on a table in dressing room, someone plugged in a battered old kettle all the lights went out someone bumped into table knocked them on floor and janick stood on them, there wasn't time or the money to get new ones, blaze went back to struggling. Read blaze's book at the end of the day it explains it all. Lost a bit of respect for Steve after reading that book. They even asked Bruce back before they had even told blaze he was out Bruce said what about blaze Steve sad don't worry about blaze he'll be going soon. Blaze's last gig the band went without telling him they weren't doing an encore, he waited back stage then realized oh everyone's gone, thanks for telling me guys. At least Janick has had the decency to say I think we need to take some of the blame for blaze live problems, we should had done more Paul stuff and not pushed his voice to much.

_Pthu! Finito!_ Seriously, I can barely stand a regular heavy metal crowd where the latecomers think they have a right to force their way to the front where I've been keeping my place for hours, but spitting at the vocalist is beyond childish. It's sad, but also _kinda_ funny during The Trooper, as the band is gathered together for a feel-good concert finale, but Blaze is gazing at the spitting sons of bitches with murderous intent (@ 01:44:03). Harris joins him in staring at the hooligan(s) with disapproval, as the leader of the band should. _Anyone else?!_

I knew Steve was deaf just hadn't realized to what extend. Now I know.

Anyone think that bringing in more songs from the first two albums would have helped Blaze?

WHAT THE HELL WHERE YOU THINKING HARRIS!!!

Even after nico was meant to have found some tapes of some live gigs were blaze sounded a bit off he played to the band and Steve didn't say " I really think we should try tuning down to see if that helps, if that doesn't work we'll have to find someone else", no Steve said "well that's it he'll have to go".

How to open a show by Blaze Bayley: Sing the whole first song a semi tone down.

I think that the style of singing he had in the Wolfsbane was very beautiful and captivating and at the time looked very much like Paul. The problem was not that he was not a professional singer but rather that Steve Harris insisted on keeping the settings for Bruce without taking into account the lower voice of Blaze! It was like making Pavarotti do a whole concert on Freddie Mercury's notes it was obvious that the vocal cords did not hold as two great singers but with opposite tones! If Steve had taken account of the setting today we would just be talking about .... do you prefer the high tones of Bruce or the lower ones of Blaze and Paul? This is my thought .... for me you can not criticize a person who despite his band has made him uncomfortable he put the maximum effort has tried to keep those settings! I would criticize more the band that got rid of its singer putting it in trouble! Just see once out of the band that with other musicians have taken into account his voice and no longer disfigured! He was criticized for the Trooper .... he came out of the band at concerts where he sang it again very well! Then a person is free to be pleased more one or another singer but we must also give credit to the commitment and discomfort received!

Doogie White (the singer... after being the second choice for Maiden!) made a speech about the pint he was holding up being piss and if they tried to spit on them again he'd pour it on them!

Few factors worked against Maiden during this era: Traditional Heavy Metal was “unfashionable”, lost of key members (Bruce and Adrian), very uneven material (understandable when you’ve a few albums full of classic songs) and Blaze’s voice didn’t do justice to most of the classic songs on a live setting...

Tbh Blaze wasnt a bad singer just the case there was huge amount of songs he was told to sing which didnt work with his voice

We can only blame the band really, they should have lowered their tuning just a bit, to meet his vocal range, especially in the classic songs like Trooper, Hallowed and so on, and why they didn´t will always be a mystery to me....Just check out Maidens official videos of : Futureal, Lord of the Flies, Virus, Man on the Edge and Afraid to Shoot Strangers, then you´ll know what I´m talking about.

The X factor is so underrated - ok some of the songs are lengthy but the quality of the songs speak for themselves. If this record came out under a different band name I think it would of sold loads. Sign of the cross has a lengthy intro but its a great song. some of the intros on "The Final Frontier" are simply boring and that's being kind.

I'm sure Iron Maiden would have had a second heyday if Blaze sang a little more solemn.

Want to see just how important the right singer and frontman is for a band, compare this horrendous performance with either Paul Di Anno or Bruce D.

Ya he isn’t as good as Bruce but if they had tuned down a few steps to fit his voice he would’ve probably done much better. You can hear him straining to hit Bruce’s notes and he just can’t do it, not his fault that’s just how his range is.

Steve harris told me in Algarve that the new singer didn t have much range but it would manage, from that point i though " disaster" . yes he was fine with Wolfsbane and was a Rock funny act but.... he almost destroyed our good old maiden, what a disaster. a friend of mine put some videos from our band, youtube ARYA grounded, or ARYA tell me or even TIMELESS live At hard Club if you want to check an old Rock band from Portugal. It should be me getting that job ehehe wouldn need to work hard now lol. Thanks Alek, at the end all tastes are valid, just not this one please lllloolll but of course you have an idea or more then that even, is just pushing you :-)

Arya song now hearing is a killing song. Bravo. I wish i had been in a tour like you. Younger i was in an Greek underground band, not so great like you, but you know how this story ends. Your band sounds amazing, you are lucky to have done so many things, bravo again. Anyway my english are terrible so i try here. In my life i always saw music not as a competiion, but as a peacefull energy who makes me feel emotions and made me a better man. I never care if a singer or a guitar player plays 200 notes in a second and also sads me people trying to compare musissians or getting so hatefull for other mussisians, its a fucking art and not a demostration. Music comes from our soul and if it is true, its ok for me. Its all about the feeling of a song, the melody, the sound, or even only the words of a song . Blaze isnt a diamond, and he could never sing bruce songs. Hearing him live, i hear a man who lost his voice trying to sing in highter notes. so at the end he couldnt sing his own songs, he almost destroyed his voice. He was a young man who had an amazing opportunety and he sayd yes to it, he even didnt believe it. Come on everybody would say yes to sing in Maiden! Steve wants ...Maiden do. That what happened. Im not trying here to change your thoughts. Im just saying for me that the X factor is a missunderstood album. Its a really deep , dark, sad, doom, heavy album with hard rock tone. A really strange and unique mix, and Blaze is nt a problem for me. He even wrote some good stuff and ideas in theare. Wish you the best... thanks for answering

Great voice but terrible, terrible stage presence.. holy fuck.
