Thank you for highlighting Mark.. What an amazing guitarist. When people ask me who my biggest guitar influences are, Mark Kendall is always in there. Sorely underrated. House of Broken love is a great Mark moment, It's hard to say which solo of his is my favorite as they are all so good, classy, clean and absolutely full of soul.. But, This one and Love is a Lie off of Psycho City album gives me goosebumps everytime I listen to them. Another hugely under rated guitarist is Stevie Blaze from Lillian Axe

The repetition of that descending hook (8:15) one octave lower in the outro is absolutely devastating, the normal version is melancholic, as if it comes from a distant memory, the one at the end it sounds like the shattering of all illusions and hopes. Great writing!

@simionenaclably92803 күн бұрын
roberts my husband and like he says: The word Satan comes from Saturn in the ancient astrological texts, which always represented the left-brain ego of duality of thoughts(illusions), thousands of years before any bible. As thoughts are blind to truth as it can only label and blame at the surface of images and can never know infinite essences of Spirit. And it is why churches tell you to blame a devil that doesn't exist for your misfortunes, because then you're gripped with countless illusions and self-deception in the illusions of blame in "victim consciousness", which is the lowest form of consciousness that exists in the Universe. Just look at rappers like Eminem singing about being a victim over petty silly things and see his rage, christians are the same. Once you've been caught in victim consciousness the ego-mind seeks control (illusions), beliefs, rage, narcissism and all sorts of darkness and blindness. Look at people with their silly need to prove only their God is the right one in the Universe. It's total insanity and blindness. So the devil is simply thoughts you need to separate from. Which is your ego. Because you cannot go within if you're thinking or believing anything, as all thoughts and beliefs are outwardly, not inwardly. All thoughts come from the left brain, and that is why you see so many statues of ascended masters in different religions with their right hand up and left down, like Shiva in hinduism, or Ganesh, and Buddha etc. And why jesus said- "if you want to catch fish cast your nets on the right side of the ship". As ship always meant mind in the scriptures, and fish means wisdom. Of course Jesus never existed as everything he said came from other deity's in older religions. The right side of the brain can only open up by sacred power plants. Churches are nothing more than government mind-control mechanisms. Your spine looks like a snake. When you walk and sway your shoulders your spine waves just like a snake on the ground. If you do not activate all the chakras along the spine you will never Spiritually Ascend and Fly, but instead you will continue to stay on the ground weaving to the countless lies of churches and society and having your mind owned by their lies. Your spine, your nervous system is loaded with Spiritual information that Ayahuasca unlocks. Which every religion tells you to do, including the bible in Revelation 5:1 where it says- "He saw a Truth hidden within, and on the backside (Spine), sealed with 7 seals". Moreover in Genesis where Jacob said he saw God face to face and he called the place "Pineal", the pineal gland 3rd eye chakra. They're stories the bible writers looted from shamanism. The talking snake in scriptures is thoughts, which is that voice in your head, your ego, your mind chatter, absolutely hates any idea of going deep within because who you think you are is a total lie. But you need to keep all your beliefs and pain because you brainwashed yourself that it's your identity. Devil is thoughts, your ego, all your beliefs, who you think you are. Your stories about yourself that are all lies. Your perceptions and opinions. And God in 5th dimension is Soul, that's who you really are. The 5th dimension of no Time, as at the speed of light time does not exist which is Soul and the eternity of the infinite NOW. Eternity is not in the future as the lies of the mind thinks. As the mind (ego) is blind to everything. (hence why it's the devil ) The challenge is being able to face all your lies and darkness in the 4th dimension, you are in the 3rd dimension and you want to ascend to the fifth, but all your darkness is in the 4th dimension because that's where the teachings are. So with Ayahuasca time slows down VERY slowly, she is shutting down the left side of your brain (your ego and who you think you are disappearing over several hours). And your mind cannot pinpoint how time is slowing down or where its coming from, feels like the doors of the Universe are closing in on you, so you face all your fears and darkness naturally, not just this lifetime but through multiple lifetimes through the Universe, Ayahuasca is Light bringing you to NO TIME of 5th dimension heavenly realms, but you must DIE (Ego - Death) and let go of all your beliefs (which is aggression, as all beliefs are lies of the Self through the devil which is your thoughts), and let go of all who you think you are as in reality who you think you are is total illusion. So you see how ridiculous people who follow religion are that go to war to fight for their God when they are only fighting themselves (DEVIL of the mind of beliefs), as you cannot WILL or fight your way to Spiritually Ascend by silly beliefs, that is impossible, it is all about letting go and dying (dying of the Ego) and dissolving into the heavenly realms. And this takes place in the 4th dimension in your darkness as Ayahuasca is totally dismantling you into nothingness. As everything can only be found in the total nothing, when there is nothing left of you. So anything you've heard from people speaking about how difficult it is to take Ayahuasca, this is what's happening. As you're fighting yourself in the countless lies of your mind, running and hiding afraid of the light, and as you see how terrified you really are of the light, how everything about you was a total lie all along, all your darkness deep within you overpowers you wave after wave of your masks and dark mirrors, sadness, self-deceptions and self-deceit is all revealed. As there is no such as "other" in true spiritual reality, as All is one. How you view the Earth is how you view yourself as Mother Earth is the perfect mirror of the Self. Falling into the deep abyss of your self created darkness. All your labels of your mind being removed one by one as you run and hide in your deep shame. Falling falling deep into the Earth as Mother Earth devours you. While showing all your lies. As that is what light does, it reveals. Hence why Ayahuasca is 100% Light.. Ayahuasca is not dark, people are dark. She just reveals everything you need to face. As the 5th dimension light and beauty and the infinite love in the 5th dimension is so powerful, Your ego cannot survive that. Fear is not allowed in the 5th and 7th and higher dimension heavens of light. Beliefs are fear based and not allowed. So Ayahuasca is breaking you down making you face all your deepest fears that your mind cannot see, shows you all your demons that you created that you're afraid to face, that you must surrender and die to .. But your mind lies to you and tells you to fight demons, because you are thinking, when that is false. As you always become exactly what you fight. That is a perfect law in the Universe. Enemies do not exist in true spiritual reality, you are always and forever your own worst enemy. You created all the demons that you see in the world, it is all Within you. As we are all creators. The Demons are Not coming from outside you as the lies of the christian church teaches. They tell you that to deny any Self - accountability and self - responsibility. And to place you in the "victim" role, and nothing is darker than that... The stupidity of your Ego needing to be "Saved" as a VICTIM by a guy who never existed, when your ego is a total lie in the first place, is all absolute lunacy. Christians speak of demons the most, because they have the most demons within them !! Isn't that obvious ? As Truth is always paradoxical !! ALLOW all your demons to devour you in Ayahuasca ceremony, which they can't do when you are in full surrender, and when you die with Ayahuasca, and let go of all control, then you ascend to the 5th dimension to meet God, which is who you really are all along, you just forgot, as you will be taken out of mind memory and into Soul memory with Ayahuasca As God is everything, everywhere you look and infinitely more that you can't see. It is not a person as the lies of churches tell you. So with Ayahuasca you will BECOME everything, as the only way to truly KNOW something is to BECOME it via Direct Spiritual Experiences. Not by silly beliefs of the Ego - mind., Humans believe their Soul is within them, but that is false, for 99% of humans their Soul is outside them. Until they face all their darkness in the 4th dimension, only then can the 5th dimension Soul be re-integrated into the body. And infinite joy and Consciousness the rest of your days. There is much more with Ayahuasca but that is a short summary. The bottom of the Egyptian Pyramid is square meaning thoughts, as all thoughts are either past or future and separated from Light of infinite Now of eternity/spirit. There are no 90-degree angles in Nature or boxes, and no parallel lines, that is because Nature (Spirit) is free, but thoughts (beliefs) are prisons.(squares), the ego is a total lie. The bottom square of the ego mind is facing downwards. As all beliefs of the mind are lies. The 4 ascending sides of the Pyramid is your higher 4-chakras that will ascend you after you face your lower 3 chakras with Aya (which is your darkness and hells). The solar plexus chakra, your 3rd chakra, which is your transition point, is an extremely vital and often overlooked chakra. Too many people focus on the pineal gland chakra and that is a mistake, as it can create alot of confusion when your other chakras are unbalanced. You must work on your bottom 3 chakras FIRST, where Ayahuasca will take you over your first few ceremonies . And that's why the Pyr-a-mid is so beautiful, because Pyr means Fire , and Mid means middle = Fire in the middle The solar plexus chakra is right at the middle of your body which is the transition point to your Spiritual Ascension and Resurrection

You are absolutely 💯 right, Sea of Madness is a Masterpiece, def one of my Favorite Iron Maiden tunes, why they're not including this in their current set is a shame, the guitar parts, Adrian's solo, one of his best, Bruce's vocals, Steve Harris drumming, Dave Murray's backing guitar Nickos Drumming, this song should have been played more, Thanks for this tutorial, I did have the privilege of seeing this Live in Irvine Meadows, I was a kid, but when they played this everyone erupted it was just an Awesome concert

Back in 1984 some kids were into "Nu Wave" silly "trend" nonsense that are bound to fail and soon hide away and you couldn't imagine those bands playing those ridiculous songs at 70 years of age because it's fake and not true art. In the same way Madonna would look absolutely hideous to stand on stage at 70 years of age singing "Like a Virgin" and her other silly tunes she doesn't even write, she pays songwriters for them. Completely embarrassing. The same will happen with today's fake Pop divas, the Katy Parry's and Beyonce's of the world will vanish and fade early, rappers and all the horrific hip hop producers will fade into oblivion early, as it's all ego-driven nonsense and completely meaningless. From the Spice girls to the Backstreet Boys, it's all crap. Useless and meaningless nonsense that has zero meaning, no depth whatsoever., Hence why it has absolutely no "staying power". Meanwhile, in 1984 I was rocking Timeless Iron Maiden. As that Sony Walkman was on me at all times with a bag of heavy metal cassettes, music that is eternal with endless truths and magic. Hence why Heavy Metal bands can sell out concert arena's and stadiums and look fantastic on stage approaching (and even well into) their 70's wearing black leather. From Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Ronnie James Dio, Iron Maiden, and on and on, they play and create till they can't physically perform...well into old age....And not look out of place at all. In fact, they look cool as ever no matter their age. Timelessness. Rappers, Hip hoppers, Pop Divas would all fail embarrassingly and miserably attempting to play their silly old songs at 70 years of age. Yet here we are in 2024 and Iron Maiden is touring this year with members of the band either approaching 70 or over 70 years of age. It's not some secret Pink Floyd could play till 100 and sell out 80,000 seat stadiums at that age if their bodies could hold up. As the music is fantastic, deep, with loads of spiritual meaning.. Katy Perry and the Taylor Swift's performing at 100 would be laughed at, as nobody can take that horrific nonsense seriously. As it's not even music. As Heavy Metal/Rock N' Roll music stands the test of time, unlike any other genre in music it can play on and on and on..... as it's Truth music. Timeless beauty :- ) Nature is my church, and the Divine Light of Rock N' Roll and Heavy Metal music (and a touch of psychedelic trance) is my Religion !! Much Love !! As ALL is ONE in true reality, as EVERYTHING in the multi-dimensional universe is connected in infinite ways of magic,,,,... and all beliefs of the blind mind are divisions (control/narcissism) therefore all beliefs of the mind are lies. The word belief simply means Be-a-Lie as all beliefs are nothing more than ego-attachments and have absolutely nothing to do with KNOWING and Be-coming (Soul !!). ;- )

Iron Maiden's songs titled "The Unbeliever" and "Look for the Truth" reveals beautifully why religionists (christians) demonized Rock music. And it is because Rock N' Roll asks the deepest questions, and religionists completely hate themselves therefore anything that has to do with any depth they will immediately run away from (in their total cowardice).. As the lyrics of "The Unbeliever" reveals - you need to falsely believe in a religion of nonsense and endless lies as you've completely lost faith and true belief in yourself. You're so scared to look deep into your Ego-mind by simply taking some Entheogen plants that blast open your subconscious. You're terrified to see your endless shame and guilt (and all your inner hells that YOU created), as everything about you is completely fake...hence why you follow FEAR, not Love, as religion is 100% Fear-based. You seek forgiveness from an illusion outside you by the stupidity of man-made religion, because you are incapable of ever truly forgiving yourself, as it is yourself that you truly hate. And as the song "Look for the Truth" reveals, you try to hide all your lies and weaknesses constantly, revealing your endless inner pain and suffering. Endless demons and daggers in your blind ego-mind.. Bible-toters threaten others with Hell the most in their extreme narcissism as they have By Far the most hells within them. Truth is ALWAYS paradoxical. Hence why Subconsciously, they cannot wait to see ALL life and the planet DESTROYED ASAP in the endless Apathy, as they hate all life/humanity....As it is nothing more than a reflection of their hatred of themselves. Those are only 2 Maiden tunes out of many songs they've created stating the same..Rock music in general stated the same through thousands of fantastic songs and bands. Rock N' Roll and Heavy Metal music is BY FAR the deepest, most beautiful, most powerful, most loving, and most gorgeous spiritual art ever created. Period Life isn't about waiting for the Storm to pass (as the lies of Religion tells you), life is about learning how to dance in the Rain ! Iron Maiden is just one of countless Rock bands that constantly told you the only path of be - coming light is by completely facing your inner darkness. Ahh the Divine Light of Rock N' Roll and Heavy Metal music constantly told us the truth since the beginning in the 1960's. The endless beauty and divinity of real Heavy Metal music never ceases to Amaze !! And of course it was the religious church goers who labeled Rock music as 'evil', but what isn't evil to them ? They label everything in their total blindness and hate everything and everybody. Mostly themselves. LOL ! This is the infinite Spiritual beauty and divinity of real Heavy Metal music. As real Rock music doesn't tell you what to follow or believe to control you, it just completely Des - troys your Ego - thinking mind altogether !! Infinite Freedom, as all beliefs of the thinking human mind are lies as they all deny direct spiritual experiences, therefore it is the beliefs themselves of your ego - mind that is the enemy, and nothing more. Enemies do not exist in true spiritual reality ( as all is One), you are always and forever your own worst enemy. Truth ! ; - )

As Iron Maiden's song titled "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son" states- "The Good, the Evil, which path will he take, because BOTH of them trying to manipulate", is 100% True. For example, By christians fighting good vs evil it is automatic judgment. However in the infinite heavens that are everywhere (but you can't connect with as you have much to learn), there is no such thing as good vs evil as that is automatic judgment, and judgment can't exist in the heavens. The evidence is, you christians have always thought you were good however you have caused By far the most violent and atrocious acts and you caused the most pain/suffering in human history. As that is what's within you, as christianity is 100% violence and the darkest ideologies. Period. Truth is always paradoxical. Your ego believing it's good (and saved) is what causes all your inner pain and gives you a freepass to look down upon and judge all life/humanity with impunity. When in reality you are constantly judging yourself, as there is no such thing as "other" ( as all is one). Enemies do not exist in true spiritual reality, you are always and forever your own worst enemy. Hence why bible-toters are completely incapable of going deep within them.,.. In their extreme narcissism. PS- not speaking to you directly in a personal manner Nicko, as nothing is truly personal in life as only the blind ego mind takes things personally, eye always speak in general to the general population .. Much love !!! Your channel is absolutely fantastic !! Thank - you Iron Maiden, and Thank - you Mother Ayahuasca !! Endless Infinite Gratitude !! :- )

I always liked that song precisely because of the solos. and the blues
Sounds great
That was awesome... And no wah pedal👍
Fear of the duck!
Playing the bassline under this was my biggest accomplishment when I was 14! 😄
Very nice video again! I places this intro reminds me a bit of The Prisoner by Maiden and Floods by Pantera.
*When will we see any of this?* m.kzread.info/dash/bejne/d4lkvNGjYbXOY7A.html&pp=ygUVdGhlIGxpb24gYWRyaWFuIHNtaXRo YOU'RE THE BEAST!
Sea of Madness is a Masterpiece, a shame Iron Maiden hasn't played this more on some of their tours, I did see them play this live, I had played SIT on my way to a club this weekend and the Whole Album is just a Masterpiece.
roberts my husband and like he says: The word Satan comes from Saturn in the ancient astrological texts, which always represented the left-brain ego of duality of thoughts(illusions), thousands of years before any bible. As thoughts are blind to truth as it can only label and blame at the surface of images and can never know infinite essences of Spirit. And it is why churches tell you to blame a devil that doesn't exist for your misfortunes, because then you're gripped with countless illusions and self-deception in the illusions of blame in "victim consciousness", which is the lowest form of consciousness that exists in the Universe. Just look at rappers like Eminem singing about being a victim over petty silly things and see his rage, christians are the same. Once you've been caught in victim consciousness the ego-mind seeks control (illusions), beliefs, rage, narcissism and all sorts of darkness and blindness. Look at people with their silly need to prove only their God is the right one in the Universe. It's total insanity and blindness. So the devil is simply thoughts you need to separate from. Which is your ego. Because you cannot go within if you're thinking or believing anything, as all thoughts and beliefs are outwardly, not inwardly. All thoughts come from the left brain, and that is why you see so many statues of ascended masters in different religions with their right hand up and left down, like Shiva in hinduism, or Ganesh, and Buddha etc. And why jesus said- "if you want to catch fish cast your nets on the right side of the ship". As ship always meant mind in the scriptures, and fish means wisdom. Of course Jesus never existed as everything he said came from other deity's in older religions. The right side of the brain can only open up by sacred power plants. Churches are nothing more than government mind-control mechanisms. Your spine looks like a snake. When you walk and sway your shoulders your spine waves just like a snake on the ground. If you do not activate all the chakras along the spine you will never Spiritually Ascend and Fly, but instead you will continue to stay on the ground weaving to the countless lies of churches and society and having your mind owned by their lies. Your spine, your nervous system is loaded with Spiritual information that Ayahuasca unlocks. Which every religion tells you to do, including the bible in Revelation 5:1 where it says- "He saw a Truth hidden within, and on the backside (Spine), sealed with 7 seals". Moreover in Genesis where Jacob said he saw God face to face and he called the place "Pineal", the pineal gland 3rd eye chakra. They're stories the bible writers looted from shamanism. The talking snake in scriptures is thoughts, which is that voice in your head, your ego, your mind chatter, absolutely hates any idea of going deep within because who you think you are is a total lie. But you need to keep all your beliefs and pain because you brainwashed yourself that it's your identity. Devil is thoughts, your ego, all your beliefs, who you think you are. Your stories about yourself that are all lies. Your perceptions and opinions. And God in 5th dimension is Soul, that's who you really are. The 5th dimension of no Time, as at the speed of light time does not exist which is Soul and the eternity of the infinite NOW. Eternity is not in the future as the lies of the mind thinks. As the mind (ego) is blind to everything. (hence why it's the devil ) The challenge is being able to face all your lies and darkness in the 4th dimension, you are in the 3rd dimension and you want to ascend to the fifth, but all your darkness is in the 4th dimension because that's where the teachings are. So with Ayahuasca time slows down VERY slowly, she is shutting down the left side of your brain (your ego and who you think you are disappearing over several hours). And your mind cannot pinpoint how time is slowing down or where its coming from, feels like the doors of the Universe are closing in on you, so you face all your fears and darkness naturally, not just this lifetime but through multiple lifetimes through the Universe, Ayahuasca is Light bringing you to NO TIME of 5th dimension heavenly realms, but you must DIE (Ego - Death) and let go of all your beliefs (which is aggression, as all beliefs are lies of the Self through the devil which is your thoughts), and let go of all who you think you are as in reality who you think you are is total illusion. So you see how ridiculous people who follow religion are that go to war to fight for their God when they are only fighting themselves (DEVIL of the mind of beliefs), as you cannot WILL or fight your way to Spiritually Ascend by silly beliefs, that is impossible, it is all about letting go and dying (dying of the Ego) and dissolving into the heavenly realms. And this takes place in the 4th dimension in your darkness as Ayahuasca is totally dismantling you into nothingness. As everything can only be found in the total nothing, when there is nothing left of you. So anything you've heard from people speaking about how difficult it is to take Ayahuasca, this is what's happening. As you're fighting yourself in the countless lies of your mind, running and hiding afraid of the light, and as you see how terrified you really are of the light, how everything about you was a total lie all along, all your darkness deep within you overpowers you wave after wave of your masks and dark mirrors, sadness, self-deceptions and self-deceit is all revealed. As there is no such as "other" in true spiritual reality, as All is one. How you view the Earth is how you view yourself as Mother Earth is the perfect mirror of the Self. Falling into the deep abyss of your self created darkness. All your labels of your mind being removed one by one as you run and hide in your deep shame. Falling falling deep into the Earth as Mother Earth devours you. While showing all your lies. As that is what light does, it reveals. Hence why Ayahuasca is 100% Light.. Ayahuasca is not dark, people are dark. She just reveals everything you need to face. As the 5th dimension light and beauty and the infinite love in the 5th dimension is so powerful, Your ego cannot survive that. Fear is not allowed in the 5th and 7th and higher dimension heavens of light. Beliefs are fear based and not allowed. So Ayahuasca is breaking you down making you face all your deepest fears that your mind cannot see, shows you all your demons that you created that you're afraid to face, that you must surrender and die to .. But your mind lies to you and tells you to fight demons, because you are thinking, when that is false. As you always become exactly what you fight. That is a perfect law in the Universe. Enemies do not exist in true spiritual reality, you are always and forever your own worst enemy. You created all the demons that you see in the world, it is all Within you. As we are all creators. The Demons are Not coming from outside you as the lies of the christian church teaches. They tell you that to deny any Self - accountability and self - responsibility. And to place you in the "victim" role, and nothing is darker than that... The stupidity of your Ego needing to be "Saved" as a VICTIM by a guy who never existed, when your ego is a total lie in the first place, is all absolute lunacy. Christians speak of demons the most, because they have the most demons within them !! Isn't that obvious ? As Truth is always paradoxical !! ALLOW all your demons to devour you in Ayahuasca ceremony, which they can't do when you are in full surrender, and when you die with Ayahuasca, and let go of all control, then you ascend to the 5th dimension to meet God, which is who you really are all along, you just forgot, as you will be taken out of mind memory and into Soul memory with Ayahuasca As God is everything, everywhere you look and infinitely more that you can't see. It is not a person as the lies of churches tell you. So with Ayahuasca you will BECOME everything, as the only way to truly KNOW something is to BECOME it via Direct Spiritual Experiences. Not by silly beliefs of the Ego - mind., Humans believe their Soul is within them, but that is false, for 99% of humans their Soul is outside them. Until they face all their darkness in the 4th dimension, only then can the 5th dimension Soul be re-integrated into the body. And infinite joy and Consciousness the rest of your days. There is much more with Ayahuasca but that is a short summary. The bottom of the Egyptian Pyramid is square meaning thoughts, as all thoughts are either past or future and separated from Light of infinite Now of eternity/spirit. There are no 90-degree angles in Nature or boxes, and no parallel lines, that is because Nature (Spirit) is free, but thoughts (beliefs) are prisons.(squares), the ego is a total lie. The bottom square of the ego mind is facing downwards. As all beliefs of the mind are lies. The 4 ascending sides of the Pyramid is your higher 4-chakras that will ascend you after you face your lower 3 chakras with Aya (which is your darkness and hells). The solar plexus chakra, your 3rd chakra, which is your transition point, is an extremely vital and often overlooked chakra. Too many people focus on the pineal gland chakra and that is a mistake, as it can create alot of confusion when your other chakras are unbalanced. You must work on your bottom 3 chakras FIRST, where Ayahuasca will take you over your first few ceremonies . And that's why the Pyr-a-mid is so beautiful, because Pyr means Fire , and Mid means middle = Fire in the middle The solar plexus chakra is right at the middle of your body which is the transition point to your Spiritual Ascension and Resurrection
You are absolutely 💯 right, Sea of Madness is a Masterpiece, def one of my Favorite Iron Maiden tunes, why they're not including this in their current set is a shame, the guitar parts, Adrian's solo, one of his best, Bruce's vocals, Steve Harris drumming, Dave Murray's backing guitar Nickos Drumming, this song should have been played more, Thanks for this tutorial, I did have the privilege of seeing this Live in Irvine Meadows, I was a kid, but when they played this everyone erupted it was just an Awesome concert
Back in 1984 some kids were into "Nu Wave" silly "trend" nonsense that are bound to fail and soon hide away and you couldn't imagine those bands playing those ridiculous songs at 70 years of age because it's fake and not true art. In the same way Madonna would look absolutely hideous to stand on stage at 70 years of age singing "Like a Virgin" and her other silly tunes she doesn't even write, she pays songwriters for them. Completely embarrassing. The same will happen with today's fake Pop divas, the Katy Parry's and Beyonce's of the world will vanish and fade early, rappers and all the horrific hip hop producers will fade into oblivion early, as it's all ego-driven nonsense and completely meaningless. From the Spice girls to the Backstreet Boys, it's all crap. Useless and meaningless nonsense that has zero meaning, no depth whatsoever., Hence why it has absolutely no "staying power". Meanwhile, in 1984 I was rocking Timeless Iron Maiden. As that Sony Walkman was on me at all times with a bag of heavy metal cassettes, music that is eternal with endless truths and magic. Hence why Heavy Metal bands can sell out concert arena's and stadiums and look fantastic on stage approaching (and even well into) their 70's wearing black leather. From Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Ronnie James Dio, Iron Maiden, and on and on, they play and create till they can't physically perform...well into old age....And not look out of place at all. In fact, they look cool as ever no matter their age. Timelessness. Rappers, Hip hoppers, Pop Divas would all fail embarrassingly and miserably attempting to play their silly old songs at 70 years of age. Yet here we are in 2024 and Iron Maiden is touring this year with members of the band either approaching 70 or over 70 years of age. It's not some secret Pink Floyd could play till 100 and sell out 80,000 seat stadiums at that age if their bodies could hold up. As the music is fantastic, deep, with loads of spiritual meaning.. Katy Perry and the Taylor Swift's performing at 100 would be laughed at, as nobody can take that horrific nonsense seriously. As it's not even music. As Heavy Metal/Rock N' Roll music stands the test of time, unlike any other genre in music it can play on and on and on..... as it's Truth music. Timeless beauty :- ) Nature is my church, and the Divine Light of Rock N' Roll and Heavy Metal music (and a touch of psychedelic trance) is my Religion !! Much Love !! As ALL is ONE in true reality, as EVERYTHING in the multi-dimensional universe is connected in infinite ways of magic,,,,... and all beliefs of the blind mind are divisions (control/narcissism) therefore all beliefs of the mind are lies. The word belief simply means Be-a-Lie as all beliefs are nothing more than ego-attachments and have absolutely nothing to do with KNOWING and Be-coming (Soul !!). ;- )
Iron Maiden's songs titled "The Unbeliever" and "Look for the Truth" reveals beautifully why religionists (christians) demonized Rock music. And it is because Rock N' Roll asks the deepest questions, and religionists completely hate themselves therefore anything that has to do with any depth they will immediately run away from (in their total cowardice).. As the lyrics of "The Unbeliever" reveals - you need to falsely believe in a religion of nonsense and endless lies as you've completely lost faith and true belief in yourself. You're so scared to look deep into your Ego-mind by simply taking some Entheogen plants that blast open your subconscious. You're terrified to see your endless shame and guilt (and all your inner hells that YOU created), as everything about you is completely fake...hence why you follow FEAR, not Love, as religion is 100% Fear-based. You seek forgiveness from an illusion outside you by the stupidity of man-made religion, because you are incapable of ever truly forgiving yourself, as it is yourself that you truly hate. And as the song "Look for the Truth" reveals, you try to hide all your lies and weaknesses constantly, revealing your endless inner pain and suffering. Endless demons and daggers in your blind ego-mind.. Bible-toters threaten others with Hell the most in their extreme narcissism as they have By Far the most hells within them. Truth is ALWAYS paradoxical. Hence why Subconsciously, they cannot wait to see ALL life and the planet DESTROYED ASAP in the endless Apathy, as they hate all life/humanity....As it is nothing more than a reflection of their hatred of themselves. Those are only 2 Maiden tunes out of many songs they've created stating the same..Rock music in general stated the same through thousands of fantastic songs and bands. Rock N' Roll and Heavy Metal music is BY FAR the deepest, most beautiful, most powerful, most loving, and most gorgeous spiritual art ever created. Period Life isn't about waiting for the Storm to pass (as the lies of Religion tells you), life is about learning how to dance in the Rain ! Iron Maiden is just one of countless Rock bands that constantly told you the only path of be - coming light is by completely facing your inner darkness. Ahh the Divine Light of Rock N' Roll and Heavy Metal music constantly told us the truth since the beginning in the 1960's. The endless beauty and divinity of real Heavy Metal music never ceases to Amaze !! And of course it was the religious church goers who labeled Rock music as 'evil', but what isn't evil to them ? They label everything in their total blindness and hate everything and everybody. Mostly themselves. LOL ! This is the infinite Spiritual beauty and divinity of real Heavy Metal music. As real Rock music doesn't tell you what to follow or believe to control you, it just completely Des - troys your Ego - thinking mind altogether !! Infinite Freedom, as all beliefs of the thinking human mind are lies as they all deny direct spiritual experiences, therefore it is the beliefs themselves of your ego - mind that is the enemy, and nothing more. Enemies do not exist in true spiritual reality ( as all is One), you are always and forever your own worst enemy. Truth ! ; - )
As Iron Maiden's song titled "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son" states- "The Good, the Evil, which path will he take, because BOTH of them trying to manipulate", is 100% True. For example, By christians fighting good vs evil it is automatic judgment. However in the infinite heavens that are everywhere (but you can't connect with as you have much to learn), there is no such thing as good vs evil as that is automatic judgment, and judgment can't exist in the heavens. The evidence is, you christians have always thought you were good however you have caused By far the most violent and atrocious acts and you caused the most pain/suffering in human history. As that is what's within you, as christianity is 100% violence and the darkest ideologies. Period. Truth is always paradoxical. Your ego believing it's good (and saved) is what causes all your inner pain and gives you a freepass to look down upon and judge all life/humanity with impunity. When in reality you are constantly judging yourself, as there is no such thing as "other" ( as all is one). Enemies do not exist in true spiritual reality, you are always and forever your own worst enemy. Hence why bible-toters are completely incapable of going deep within them.,.. In their extreme narcissism. PS- not speaking to you directly in a personal manner Nicko, as nothing is truly personal in life as only the blind ego mind takes things personally, eye always speak in general to the general population .. Much love !!! Your channel is absolutely fantastic !! Thank - you Iron Maiden, and Thank - you Mother Ayahuasca !! Endless Infinite Gratitude !! :- )
