IRON MAIDEN The ides of march

[AzureMurakumo]

I used this as background music for a recital of a monologue from Shakespeare's Julius Caesar for my English class.

[MX3401]

The shortest song of maiden..... and one of the bests solos!!!! 

[LUXXXable]

Up the irons from Italy ;)

[aerofanone]

Anybody remember when you could look up Ides of March without that crappy George Clooney movie showing up? Good Times.

[ubuybuyb]

UP THE IRONS FROM ARGENTINA!!!!!!!!

[kapry67]

their best album...that s all....

[ennell1]

real metal like this how i miss it

[xNinja73x]

there are no vocals (discription) :P

[NINJATRONdnb]

classic

[19ToMaC89]

1:13 1:19

Make me cry...

[renumeratedfrog]

Perhaps the most epic opening of any metal album...

[renumeratedfrog]

Please re-upload with better quality... this sounds like a 64kbps MP3

[neussfan]

@renumeratedfrog Just change to 480p, it's a big difference to 360.

[666Doncha]

this is like an intro of this album 'Killers'..

[studas2011]

Killers is their best album.

[zalmanusa]

@studas2011 The best ones are The Number of the Beast, Powerslave and Piece of Mind, so you're pretty much wrong.

[studas2011]

@zalmanusa You're obviously unfamiliar with the concept of 'opinions'.

Have a nice wank, Adolf.

[zalmanusa]

@studas2011 You're obviously unfamiliar with the concept of 'acting like the person you're responding to to make fun of him'. There's no best album, it's subjective, I know this because it's common sense, please _get_ when people are making fun of you next time (it will happen) to skip humiliation.

[999N0t3str34k]

@studas2011 no its not shut the fuck up smfh -_-

[RDArtist81]

Well now I have to hear Wrathchild.

[CaptainGrammatica]

CANON

[jot0ub]

Canon!

[arrawghost]

Thunderstick wrote the idea of "Ides of March", by the way. :) He rearranged the idea into "Thunderburst", a track of the second SAMSON album.

[goldeneagle501]

Good song to get up to

[1990stillborn]

this is fuckin deadly

[maximumman100]

@1990stillborn hell yay



[Skulatore7]

This song is so awesome, I wish it was longer.

[ToestheUnwholy]

So guess what. I turned on the song for some Iron Maiden. First thing I heard? Lady Gaga. I cried for two hours.

[IronMaiden322025]

Kurwa te skurwysyny reklamy mi tu wpierdalają :( wszędzie już są te jebane reklamy ...

[nysurfer727]

My version

[gritualista]

Ave Caesar!

[wesiscool123]

before every game of football i play (rugby league) i play this to pump me up and kill cunts on the field haha this is my favourite song/intro

[nightwolf0594]

UP The Irons From (dean Funes, Cordoba) ARGENTINA!!!

[OneEyedJack1970]

@ViciousDeliciousIV which one? There are two solos, back to back. That's one of Iron Maiden's signatures. I think they're both awesome. Dave and Adrian complement each other very well.

[joelafrite66]

..."un emperium sine fine dedi" ... S.P.Q.R

[caddop22]

If you were lucky enough to see Maiden Live in the 80's, You saw a good show. I saw them on the Power Slave tour......Awesome show

[pescadomaligno]

if this song would be on guitar hero rock the 80's i would buy a ps2 just to play it every single day

[Djsukyy]

i was born also on March 15.. fuck yeah.

[ViciousDeliciousIV]

I almost died first time i heard the solo

[jonnymx7]

damn i was born on the 14th, shitttttt

[avibby1]

Up the irons from Connecticut!!!!!

[FedorCroCop44]

rap sucks...hip hop sucks...r and b sucks...pop sucks....black metal sucks....only good music is classical metal and neo classical

[Luolaotus]

@FedorCroCop44 why black metal sucks? ever heard any real black metal song?

[sonicnator]

@FedorCroCop44: Rap/ hip hop died in the 90s, R&B is alright(depends on the artist), pop died, black metal.........not crazy about it

Metal(heavy, symphonic, thrash, speed, power, neo-classical, sometimes doom and glam) and rock(most sub-genres) is awesome though.

[Siksaneity77]

@sonicnator to find good modern day black metal you gotta dig deep man, its also more of an aquired taste kind of like death metal. and i agree with you about 80s-90s being the pinnical of rap, most all shit today sucks.

[sonicnator]

@Siksaneity77: I agree.

Ive tried to get into black metal. Do dark/opressing for my liking. The closest thing to black metal I'll probably listen to is if it has a symphonic or Gothic feeling to it.

[bumoofy]

Quite possibly the best minute and a half of guitar ever recorded

[Narutofan9993]

That's what starts playing after I get my math test back. Yes, I'm that badass. Simply like that.

[TheGodwillreign]

Up the irons from India

[mememms]

Up the irons from Wisconsin!!!

[DreamWarrior87]

Awesome opening song \m/

[overlook77]

0 dislikes...thats what im talking about.

[MrKenpokarate]

notice the lack of dislikes? MAIDEN IS THE SHIT!

[Lightaxethewanderer]

Freaking the greatest beginning of all time period....I first listen to this I was "HOLY SHIT!!!What a freaking epic Intro this is."

[MrScary1777]

Yes Wrathchild it was written by Steve Harris.

[sgoodell99]

One of my fav Maiden tunes. Adrian Smith shines on this one. I was twelve when I first heard this. Brings back a lot of memories.

[nysurfer727]

some of the best solos i ever heard

[livewire242]

It's my birthday, and this is my birthday's theme song.

[SplinterCell25]

[projec64]

And I take off me hat, and gently place it to my heart, and salute thy Maiden. Up the irons!!!! -sniffles-
