@DerekShiller It is the same as the CD version. I just put that there because every other video on Youtube have a higher pitch (people do that to avoid having trouble with copyrights). I just put that there so that people see that this video, unlike every other, is not high-pitched (CD original).
this album is great .it has that feeling that it belongs to the classic saga of iron maiden's albums.such as piece of mind,powerslave,s in time,and 7th son ..the talisman is the song that gives this album a touch of unique .this is my opinion ....
Fuck anyone who disses Janick on his writing or his playing. He's a better song writer than Adrian. THERE I SAID IT! A matter of life and death was a weak album minus the songs dave, steve, and janick had major parts in. Although, Paschendale is bloody beautiful! Up the irons!
I don't know, other than brighter than a thousand suns and Dave and Steve's beautiful work of Benjamin Breeg, the rest just didn't grab me. To be honest im not a fan of the material that Adrian writes, lately of course.
@DaveyMurray1 Yeah Out of the Shadows didn't really impress me, and some of the other songs weren't the best but how about The Legacy and The Longest Day?
awesome song,i think the intro was way longer than it shoulda been but still it kicks ass.iron maiden never seises to be utterly fuckin brilliant....UP THE IRONS \m/
It's amazing that in all the reviews I've seen for the final frontier none of them have mentioned the amazing lyrics in this song. They're fucking genius!
Hey those who don't like it don't compalin about it, go listen to old Maiden, I like this better than some of their earlier 90's shit with blaze bayley i'm sorry but i can't stand that guy. They're not gonna play their old metal style on new albums because they progress. Even on Piece of Mind they became progressive. Basically they always were. I didn't like Brave New World except two songs. This has more than two songs that rock. Powerslave was consider progressive when it came out.
@number1HitlerFan Aces High is probably my all time favorite song by Maiden. That is probably the best example of "The Air Raid Siren" from their catalogue.
I will change my statement to "why he is STILL known as "The Air Raid Siren".
Perfect lyrics, epic riffs, galloping sound all over the track, and Bruce's top notch theatrical singing makes The Talisman IMO one of Maiden's best songs ever.
sorry couldnt get into this one at all... just overall dull and plodding with some surprisingly unimaginative riffs... and is it me or is Bruce straining throughout this entire song??
I swear that when I hear this song I could draw every scene on a paper. I could film this song without making any effort. It is SO visual.

I'm intrigued by the "Not high-pitched" part in the title... anybody got more info on this? It sounds pretty much like the version I've got on my CD.

If you ever need to demonstrate why Bruce Dickinson is known as "The Air Raid Siren" , show them this song.
HOLY SHIT HE IS EPIC

@stratousbass He is pretty orgasmic in this song, but to truly get the Dickinson experience, I would say listen to Aces High. But thats just me :)
