Iron Maiden - The Educated Fool

[guitargnx3boy]

I'm diggin' it!

[MrMethadrine]

I still cant understand why they let this idiot sing in their band.Its as mystery as the 9/11....

[xanakie]

@MrMethadrine Wtf blaze was a great singer he wasnt bruce but he was great

[MrMethadrine]

@xanakie R u serious?I know people in my town with better voice than him.

[darkklowntim]

@MrMethadrine

And I know people in my town that could kick the shit out of you.

[MrMethadrine]

@darkklowntim Well kick or no kick Blaze will always suck dick.

[Maidensfan1]

@MrMethadrine I agreed with you, Steve Harris realized about what he had done and called Dickinson's back. UP THE IRONS!!!

[Bertboterham]

It is great to see that this is the same yet so different at the same time

Blaze's voice is really mature and he has a voice I just wanna relax with, while Bruce just pounds me awake (:

Also I find it ineresting that, in my opinion, Nicko is much more discrete than he is now

Iron Maiden has always been awesome and will NEVER die!

UP THE IRONS FROM HOLLAND!!

[8Dumahia8]

I like the voice of Blaze!!! and Dickinson too!!! Both are Great!! =D

[MrShaggyJosh]

Actually one of my favourite 'Maiden albums, incredibly underrated

[egmadokica]

who wants to say something 'bout blaze, remember, HE WAS THERE when it was thoughest time for maiden's, not dickinson altought i like bruce more.

[Kigit42]

@egmadokica Though you must admit, it was the hardest time BECAUSE Bruce wasn't there, if he stayed then they wouldn't have gone through such hard times. I'm not bashing Blaze, I like a few of his songs like Futureal, The Clansman, this song ^, and some others. I'm just saying.

[TenthDimension666]

@Kigit42 At the same time, Bruce had it even more harder than Maiden. They still sold a couple of million albums but Bruce didn't make much money on his solo carrier. He played to small venues and didn't sell many records.

[Kigit42]

@TenthDimension666 Yea, they would have been better off if Bruce just stayed, but sometimes you just have to make mistakes to realize what's right and what's wrong.

[TenthDimension666]

@Kigit42 I think it was good that Bruce leaved for a time, because i like the blaze albums and Accident of Birth and Chemical Wedding by Bruce.

[Kigit42]

@TenthDimension666 That is true, if Bruce hadn't left, then we never would have been graced with Bruce's singles OR Blaze's album and live performances

[TenthDimension666]

@Kigit42 + Blaze Bayley would never have had the money or any fans to follow him when he started his solo carrier. I love his own albums Silicon Messiah, The Man Who Would Not Die. Much better than what he did with Maiden, because his bariton voice is perfect for it.

[Kigit42]

@TenthDimension666 Wow, Silicon Messiah. That sounds pretty cool, I should look that up sometime!

[TenthDimension666]

@Kigit42 Stare At The Sun is amazing from that album, I have it on my channel!

[Kigit42]

@TenthDimension666 Cool! I'll check it out.

[NMEZero666]

Bleh, Blaze.

Love it when Dickenson sings these same songs.

[akaliumg]

This song reminds me of The Fool in Tarot, of all things. I wonder if that's really where Iron Maiden got inspiration for this song.

[thekevo235]

This is one of the songs I really liked Blaze in.

[GtStNw1]

Iron Maiden for ever!!!

[18nastolatekXXX]

POLAND !

[TheDieforfreedom]

i love blaze era i don't know why people hated it

he is amazing vocalist

[WhoClippedMyWings]

@TheDieforfreedom I have no issues with Blaze, I liked him with Maiden. Phantom of the Opera was a great track, and it probably has the highest views of any maiden song on Youtube by a longshot.

[SpartaDudeIsNotAmusy]

This song beast.. Only 2 dislikes

[killzoner13]

Now I have a new favorite Iron Maiden song.

[Maiden4Maiden]

Im so happy that Iron Maiden is my band, so many good songs to play on the guitar or to sing :)

Very Nice

[fd2mugenRR1]

i am an educated fool..........

[thedeadpunk666]

Perfect song!!!! Oh yes i can relate!!!!!

U GET THIS URGE EVERY NOW N THEN

[DonMonteverdi]

two people are uneducated fools. 

[EvermenEXE]

Don't get it why people hate these albums, THEY FREAKING ROCK!

[Lubek2450]

2 osoby nie znają się n muzyce :D

[imawesome432]

This song describes me right now...

I'm 17, just graduated high school, though not exactly with flying colors...

I didn't always "absorb" everything very well... like I have some sort of LD, but not sure what the hell is wrong with me.

Anyways, in terms of intelligence, some days I feel like I'm borderline genius in some areas. But I feel like there's no way to prove myself.

[lXMaverickXl]

@imawesome432 You should make this a song!

[imawesome432]

@lXMaverickXl I don't know if you were being sarcastic or what, but no, I can't write for crap...

[lXMaverickXl]

@imawesome432 No I was serious bro! If you're a musician at all go for it! :D

[animeandgamefan]

@imawesome432 The only thing i can say about that is live your life 8)

[1981michigan]

@imawesome432  Your first problem is listening to this. Nobody digs the Maiden like me but the virtual albums are average at best. Secondly, your still young so hang in there. Stay hungry and soak up all the knowledge you can and you will find your proper niche!

[disteev]

one of my all time favorite Maiden songs.. hands down.

[yairbe5]

there are so many topics only Iron maiden can pull off

[XYZFerizman]

omg...theres lyrics are not from this world !! MAIDEN FTW !!! both Blaze and Bruce are great singers !!! \m/

[BenjaminSertelon]

I do not like Blaze, but it's THE guys for X Factor and Virtual XI

[xawdoo]

great blaze!

[maidenrulz73]

this is one of the many reasons why maiden will always be the greatest......awesome song

[sacranite]

Blaze at his best

[nullerbamsen]

blaze suck balls !!!!!!!!!!.

they should make a new cd with bruce singing the songs from virtual xi

[SenseiSprinkles]

@nullerbamsen then Maiden would be selling out in order to appease fuckballs like you...they are better than that...they stick by what they've done.

[maidenrulz73]

@SenseiSprinkles amen!......

[Swizz884]

when i first heard Virtual XI i never liked it, the second time settled all : D 

[xXloverchic17Xx]

I love this!!!!

[altus2]

I'm going to see them this July in Glasgow... looking forward so badly...

[SenseiSprinkles]

Blaze was not bad...by any means...he was a great singer and did his best...but Bruce is a tough act to follow...

[andrewTAZ30]

I can remember back to summer when I would loop this song cutting grass all day!

LIFE IS WAITING!

[Xepher17]

Blaze and Bruce rocks. Virtual XI is a masterpiece, like The X Factor. AND COMPARE bruce with blaze its just.... stupid. Each one have a different style and Vocal sound. So, Up Blaze, Up Bruce, Up the dark ages and UP THE IRONS ;)

[TheFuturealist]

They all were awesome. Each of them on his own, particular way. Paul was specific and reflectional, Blaze was powerful and like brutal, and Bruce is nothing else than essence of Iron Maiden music.

[7uptheirons]

blaze is a very good singer and the blaze era was a good one too so there is no reason to compare bruse with blaze because they are both good(ok bruce is better) and they have both given maiden successes!

[IronEd636]

Maybe the singer suck, but the songs on the maiden bayley albums are awesome, Iron maiden fans should look at them with more attentions, you know, more great Iron maiden songs in their collections.

[MegaSofianos]

time will go, but i will follow ....AMAZING PART, MAYBE THE BEST OF THE SONG!!!

[bryannjo]

cette chanson est super mê si c'est pas Bruce Dickinson elle est génial

[darkklowntim]

All their vocalists added their own touch to the music.

[MegaAlexis916]

Iron Maiden are awesome! Up the Irons :)

[servantofjack]

one of my favourite Iron Maiden album

[Chris12Redfield]

Blaze is awesome XD

[UKRThracian]

Best Blaze song in my opinion.

[cassavaeater]

I can hear a female voice as a backing vocal in the chorus. who was that?

[vitorbass]

@cassavaeater It's probably Blaze singing higher ...

[RobRokken]

Love Blaze. My fav Maiden.

[SLAYERMETALLICA357]

So is this thing on the cover suppose to be eddie? because this has to be IMs only bad album cover

[xMAIDENxCANADAx]

@SLAYERMETALLICA357 what about dance of death? that album art is sketch

[jambuck620]

@xMAIDENxCANADAx no From what I have read its one of the first that was computer done

[coolscoob]

@SLAYERMETALLICA357 nah, Dance of Death is the only bad cover

that one really sucks

[Melyannadevart]

I love this song and I LOVE Blaze's voice.

[shentaistolk]

does anyone likes the band slayer.

[mission119]

@shentaistolk hell ya man

[esquilocanadense]

[mission119]

[rapiscrapMETALisbest]

[ShadowOfTheWave]

This is my favorite Maiden song. Thankfully I was forced into a religious school where heavy metal was feared and I wasn't influenced by my peers into listening to emo bullshit. This is, without a doubt, the BEST personal song I've ever heard, it really holds alot of meaning for me. I shudder to think I could have been listening to 'Duality' 5 years ago instead of this.

And never say album covers don't matter, if it wouldn't have been for Eddie I never would have given IM a second look.

[rapiscrapMETALisbest]

@ShadowOfTheWave damn i hate damned religius schools they are all full of that un trough bullshit plz tell me you dont listnen to that crap haha

[esquilocanadense]

@rapiscrapMETALisbest I actually listen to all of them, and I'm utterly sure, none of these bands are nearly as creative, intelligent, and musically efficient as Iron Maiden. But of course, it's all a matter of opinion, I'm not saying they're bad. Ok, Metallica is bad.

[batonrougevoodoo]

WOW, this is the first thread I seen that is not hating on Blaze...You guys are true Maiden fans...Thank you guys for being METAL!

[metal4lifeddie]

Virtual XI >The X Factor

[Kanydja]

i love this song...

[DanBell47]

Gods Of Metal!!!!!! Up The Irons!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mauriciohurtado]

este tema me gusta mucho... buena letra...

I like this song very much... good lyrics.

[MegaLegionarul]

I KNOW MANY EDUCATED FOOLS.

GREEAT SONG!!

GOOD INTERPRETATION FOR BLAZE!!

[DrzSpectre]

the solo seems like judas priests'breakin' the law

[TheLordMaiden]

Great song.

[davidthejew1]

0:50 one of maiden's best riffs ever.

[batonrougevoodoo]

@davidthejew1 I agree..beautiful stiff

[bengativo6]

i remember so much of this album when it came out,what really surprised me about it ,it was on a store on a shelf so cheap and dusty,i wanted to give myself the chance to listen to maiden with a new work ,it never really got my attention so good like the first time i heard 7th son of a seventh son for the first time on 88,virtual xi was a good friend that stayed with me in my troubled 22 years old on 1998.

[DanBell47]

@bengativo6 '98 was odd for me as well at the age of 25. This album helped me through it as well.

[VuXman]

part from 0:51-1:04 is genial part!!! Up IRONS from Serbia!!

[Aotd12]

Blaze Bayley is perfect for this song. His soothing voice which can morph into powerful singing in a matter of second just fits here; besides it's low, high pitched voice just wouldn't fit in here.

Yet another perfect Maiden song.

[802alien]

This reflect real life!Iron Maiden rule

[yellow6100]

irons are shit

[Sebrivslipk]

@yellow6100

Fuck you motherfucker of shit!

[lfirefly99]

[802alien]

[VuXman]

[ZlotvorSRB]

@yellow6100 pa ako ti se ne svidjaju sto ih slusas konju jedan

[guillotenet03]

que maravilla debe sonar esta cancion maidenesca en la vos de dikinson...siendo que de ya suena bastante bien--------------------gloria la metal!!!

[ValhallaGod]

Actually, one of my favourite songs of Maiden...pure poetry

Bruce is better than Blaze, but for this song, blaze is better :)

[motorzet0]

This son is not so poplar but still so GREAT! One of my favourite songs!!

[jemmafate]

3:38 jesus christ.this is music from Gods ! ! ! !
