@auridanthex as you say that Iron Maiden is one of the best metal bands and avenged just a beginner and the song is better with iron maiden that is theirs is the original

On the first point, my mother has been dead for ten years. Not really practical to try and track down ten year old clothing that went to the salvation army just to cry into it. And I'm not sure what you mean by "Taking it literally". You used no metaphors or colloquial phrases that could be misconstrued as something else. Is the last sentence is supposed to be some sort of insult? I'm not sure. Are you talking about the actual planet or the people on it? Be more specific.
You people who keep bringing up avenged sevenfold, shut the fuck up. This is an Iron Maiden video. We only talk about Maiden in here. Go talk about that shit in Avenged sevenfolds cover.
Guys, why don't you just stop complaining about who is the best band and listen to the version you like the most? Every band has good and bad points...
@elmocheesecake1174, I like both of them;). The truth is, that A7x made great cover, but Bruce is the best singer ever. Sorry Shadows, but Bruce is way better than you.
stupid children :) A7X made covers of Irons and Pantera to give them respect, not to be "better". Me - as an A7X fan like A7X version of "Flash of the blade" more, but that's because I dont like style of old-metal bands. It's just my opinion. But I respect every band.
@99chrisjc UGH are you serious? I fucking can't stand Avenged... Honestly, the ONLY song of theirs that is good is in fact that cover of a Maiden song. Its because they didn't have any creative power over it (and y'know, fuck it up).
@unchartedfanboy That was almost unintelligible. let's see if I understand what you typed just then.
You enthusiastically endorse the opinion that Avenged Sevenfold is better than Iron Maiden, refute this endorsement by passing it off as a joke, and then tentatively suggest that you may have been disingenuous concerning your second comment.
Why say anything at all if you're going to contradict yourself every third word? You flip flop more than a politician at election time.
So what! If you don't like jokes go cry in your mom's dress! Come on man! so you took what i said literally? If the world was like you, the world would be fucked up!
For all those fucking kids who think to know everything....
Iron Maiden didn't create heavy metal but they came out when disco music and punk seemed to rule the world and created the so-called NWOBHM (New wave Of British Heavy Metal)!
And now, go back upon your books or mom would spank your pink buttocks!
"I prefer A7x version" They covered it.. they didn't "Make a version of this song" they covered... Cover can't beat the original because Steve Harris wrote this song. GL writing this song A7X nobody can touch Steve Harris's ability to write music. HE IS A GOD
@allanonskid umm no it's a version cos they put their own style on it. yeh its a cover but it is in a way another version of the song and don't put that shit oh they created so theirs is obviously better you can always do something better than someone else. I believe A7x cover is better than the original though thats my opinion.
This is a really good song but i have to say i like A7X cover better since its theirs that got me to notice this 1. thats why most i think like Avenged cover better since its more new and most don't kno this 1 cos it isn't that famous. Both bands perform well but imo A7X do it better. Don't hate the comment cos u disagree, thumb down if u must but don't reply with stupid shit saying i'm wrong, ITS A MATTER OF OPINION!!! same with everyone elses comment either agree or disagree.
@MistyShadow007 I respect your opinion...but just for the record you were probably still shiting yellow and dragging on the tit when this first came out, if you were even around...but you are entitled to your opinion......just say'en not haten Peace!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@dennisgolleher I was born 10 years later though i appreciate 70s and 80s music. Only 2 covers of iron surpass imo opinion A7X flash of the blade and trivium's Iron Maiden. The whole point of covers is to give notice to these songs to a younger generation and make it sound newer as well as pay respects to the band. With so many tribute albums to maiden i think only 2 songs surpass the original. Not hatin my ass dude.

@jomoorigotto Haha dude, thats something that I say to my friends jokingly on a daily basis and something they say back when we don't agree, don't take it so seriously ;)
silvertear 1; PHENOMENA is a very underated film. I originally saw it in a heavily-cut version under the title of CREEPERS.....and in that form, it's virtually incomprehensible! The first IRON MAIDEN album i heard was "Number of the Beast" when I was sixteen-a friend played it to me and I was hooked! Up the Irons!
@czw321 in my opinion,due to me being raised on the rock of today,i am not for this calm rock,its okay for the time it was around,but i think avenged sevenfold is better in my opinion,and for all the ppl that say that iron maiden is better,remember,this is just my opinion,if you cant accept it and want to be a bullheaded motherfucker,then be my guest.
@XxArchfiendChaosxX lol im 16 and was "raised on the rock of today" yet I like Iron Maiden better both bands are good but Iron Maiden is one of my favorite bands. Everyone has their own opinion however and i'm just glad you have good taste in music and don't listen to that disney $#%@.
I love IRON MAIDEN and I really like AVENGED SEVENFOLD......but I wasn't that keen on their version of this song. I actually heared this first on the soundtrack of the Dario Argento film PHENOMENA and it was basically Horror films that got me into Metal. Didn't hear anything that was the musical equivalent of a Horror film until I heared MERCYFUL FATE and KING DIAMOND. Nevertheless....UP THE IRONS!!!!
So Iron Maiden and a7x have toured together and get along greatly. a7x looks up to maiden so anyone who insults maiden is also indirectly insulting a7x. and I'm pissed i didn't see them tour together that would have been a fucking killer ass show. One of the best bands of the 80's and one of the best of today together THATS EPIC AS HELL
even live Iron Maiden is one of the best bands in Heavy Metal. What kind of a band that has absolutely great and talented live vocals, guitar magic and flawless rhythm-section? Nicko McBrain hits almost every drummer in modern metal in the way of free playing and acoustic sound. and yes, I forgot he doesn't metronomes, triggers live and he always improvises :)
Iron Maiden is the best and tightest band in Heavy Metal. Their musicianship level is stronger than anyone else's. This song is from Powerslave, 1984. Which means there were no absolutely ridiculous triggers, compressors, plastic distortions, auto-tunes and digitally overproduced vocals. Lots of bands try to do good covers of Maiden but I heard only Dream Theater's "To Tame A Land" that could stand next to the original. Man, NOBODY can beat their musicianship level. NOBODY! :)
IF U PEOPLE ARE RAGGING ON THIS SONG U NEED A LESSON IN MUSIC U PUKES!!!!!!!! THIS IS A CLASSIC & ALL MAIDENS MUSIC KICKS ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!GO BACK 2 U'R POP ROCK ,METAL OF 2 DAY & JERK OFF 2 IT U YOUNG ASS WIPERS!!!!!
holy shit this sucks ass no offense but i came here cuz everyone was talking shit on the avenged sevenfold cover and i thought this would be way better but i guess it just boils down to taste of music
@loganizz124 the simple difference is that without maiden avenged sevenfold wouldnt probably exist nowadays and that actually exactly this song is the soundtrack of one of the best horror movies of all times PHENOMENA! Its about taste i know but avenged sevenfold will be one of those bands gone and forgotten in time 5 years. How many years is that Iron Maiden is playing?
@12Bravo407 man, i dont hate anybody n any band at all, just sometimes is sad to hear about bands who created heavy metal being put behind others who started playing 2 years ago
@Maidensfan1 Man, honestly, my heart really breaks everytime i get on youtube and i read such ammount of bullshits towards one of the bands who actually CREATED heavy metal! There are all these people who started listening to real music two days ago and still they have to express their dumb opinion over things they dont even know about! To dislike or not a song is something, to say that a cover is better than the original (when sounds exactly the same but played bad) is another. Ehhhh...
@OmegaDarkful Black Sabbath CREATED heavy metal. Judas Priest, Rainbow, and Deep Purple all came before Maiden too. Now, that's no disrespect to Maiden, but I'm not a fan of historical revisionism. Maiden was arguably the best band of the NWOBHM, but see, that stands for New Wave Of British Heavy Metal. Couldn't have been part of that movement if they invented the genre, now could they? The "New" part pretty much says that alone.
@Undercoverfire it's sad that NWOBHM isn't an 'official' genre, it would get rid of the confusion and stop them from riding the line between Rock and Metal.
@OmegaDarkful Fuck 'em. Like all fads, they'll be gone in a heartbeat while bands like this will be forever remembered and loved for all time to come!
@OmegaDarkful Yeah, Maiden is a 'standard' of Heavy Metal, one of the bands who contributed to the development of this Style. I'm fourty, I lived in a village of 500 inhab. in 1984, where the 'heavier sounds' came from dogs, and our cassette player and had the chance to get this Album... 27 years later.... my opinion, is that no one can disagree this is a Piece of Mind, Art in its pure essence... those who have understanding... This is A REAL BIG BAND !!!!
@druhjt damn right, man! It seems we got a whole generation that have missed something like 20 years of music... they started listening music in late nineties with new bands and totally forgot to get back to the roots to understand what actually real music was supposed to be! Very sad and very disrespect towards old bands and old fans!
Acabo de oir la cover de sevenfold y es una PUTA BASURA. Mierda de voz, mierda de coros...la de Iron Maiden es infinitamente mejor. Sevenfold me parece una banda del montón tirando a mala, no comprendo como puede tener tanto exito.

silvertear 1; PHENOMENA is a very underated film. I originally saw it in a heavily-cut version under the title of CREEPERS.....and in that form, it's virtually incomprehensible! The first IRON MAIDEN album i heard was "Number of the Beast" when I was sixteen-a friend played it to me and I was hooked! Up the Irons!

@czw321 in my opinion,due to me being raised on the rock of today,i am not for this calm rock,its okay for the time it was around,but i think avenged sevenfold is better in my opinion,and for all the ppl that say that iron maiden is better,remember,this is just my opinion,if you cant accept it and want to be a bullheaded motherfucker,then be my guest.

@XxArchfiendChaosxX lol im 16 and was "raised on the rock of today" yet I like Iron Maiden better both bands are good but Iron Maiden is one of my favorite bands. Everyone has their own opinion however and i'm just glad you have good taste in music and don't listen to that disney $#%@.

I love IRON MAIDEN and I really like AVENGED SEVENFOLD......but I wasn't that keen on their version of this song. I actually heared this first on the soundtrack of the Dario Argento film PHENOMENA and it was basically Horror films that got me into Metal. Didn't hear anything that was the musical equivalent of a Horror film until I heared MERCYFUL FATE and KING DIAMOND. Nevertheless....UP THE IRONS!!!!

This music was spot on in "Phenomena" and it was also Jennifer Conelly's debut.

So Iron Maiden and a7x have toured together and get along greatly. a7x looks up to maiden so anyone who insults maiden is also indirectly insulting a7x. and I'm pissed i didn't see them tour together that would have been a fucking killer ass show. One of the best bands of the 80's and one of the best of today together THATS EPIC AS HELL

even live Iron Maiden is one of the best bands in Heavy Metal. What kind of a band that has absolutely great and talented live vocals, guitar magic and flawless rhythm-section? Nicko McBrain hits almost every drummer in modern metal in the way of free playing and acoustic sound. and yes, I forgot he doesn't metronomes, triggers live and he always improvises :)

Iron Maiden is the best and tightest band in Heavy Metal. Their musicianship level is stronger than anyone else's. This song is from Powerslave, 1984. Which means there were no absolutely ridiculous triggers, compressors, plastic distortions, auto-tunes and digitally overproduced vocals. Lots of bands try to do good covers of Maiden but I heard only Dream Theater's "To Tame A Land" that could stand next to the original. Man, NOBODY can beat their musicianship level. NOBODY! :)

holy shit this sucks ass no offense but i came here cuz everyone was talking shit on the avenged sevenfold cover and i thought this would be way better but i guess it just boils down to taste of music
loganizz124 9 months ago
@loganizz124 well, i also like A7x version more, but you could have more respect to the irons, because they've recorded this one in 1984
MattSVK1 9 months ago
@loganizz124 the simple difference is that without maiden avenged sevenfold wouldnt probably exist nowadays and that actually exactly this song is the soundtrack of one of the best horror movies of all times PHENOMENA! Its about taste i know but avenged sevenfold will be one of those bands gone and forgotten in time 5 years. How many years is that Iron Maiden is playing?

@Maidensfan1 Man, honestly, my heart really breaks everytime i get on youtube and i read such ammount of bullshits towards one of the bands who actually CREATED heavy metal! There are all these people who started listening to real music two days ago and still they have to express their dumb opinion over things they dont even know about! To dislike or not a song is something, to say that a cover is better than the original (when sounds exactly the same but played bad) is another. Ehhhh...

@OmegaDarkful Black Sabbath CREATED heavy metal. Judas Priest, Rainbow, and Deep Purple all came before Maiden too. Now, that's no disrespect to Maiden, but I'm not a fan of historical revisionism. Maiden was arguably the best band of the NWOBHM, but see, that stands for New Wave Of British Heavy Metal. Couldn't have been part of that movement if they invented the genre, now could they? The "New" part pretty much says that alone.

@Undercoverfire it's sad that NWOBHM isn't an 'official' genre, it would get rid of the confusion and stop them from riding the line between Rock and Metal.

@OmegaDarkful Yeah, Maiden is a 'standard' of Heavy Metal, one of the bands who contributed to the development of this Style. I'm fourty, I lived in a village of 500 inhab. in 1984, where the 'heavier sounds' came from dogs, and our cassette player and had the chance to get this Album... 27 years later.... my opinion, is that no one can disagree this is a Piece of Mind, Art in its pure essence... those who have understanding... This is A REAL BIG BAND !!!!

@druhjt damn right, man! It seems we got a whole generation that have missed something like 20 years of music... they started listening music in late nineties with new bands and totally forgot to get back to the roots to understand what actually real music was supposed to be! Very sad and very disrespect towards old bands and old fans!

@Maidensfan1 Man, I'm gonna kick your ass for saying that. And another thing is that a7x made a really great cover for this song.
