[ShadowMizor]

this movie this song .....what could be better

[Tuscopa]

Got to love Nicko´s rhythm bass drumming! He must be probably THE BEST single bass drummer in the world. Lightning fast! Amazing. Love the song.

[KurtG85]

Immortal shit. Bravo. Long live the will to crush oppression and uphold freedom!

[Tuscopa]

@KurtG85 Fuck yhea Man!

[KurtG85]

Woo! Follah queens.

[deathrotor]

well timed

[RomanWildernesOfPain]

Epic

[Sten11BG]

I have the filing that this song will live forever.

[VenturaAce88]

Epic moment @ 6:31 when Wallace raises his sword and Bruce starts singing the "Oooh oooooooooh" part

[PonchoNRW]

Madien is Gaymetal...but All of Metalmusic is Gay....Maiden is the King of Gaymusic

[luissk8s52]

@PonchoNRW no one says gay anymore, so im guessing your a kid since every little kid LOVES using the word gay alot

[billyboy385]

iron maiden sure knows how to keep the tune, listen to those skills! only true musicians can play that well.

[Eellenne]

This was done Brilliantly I loved it well done ! perfect song for perfect film Alba Gu Brath

[fookfocketyfookfook]

As much as I think Bruce is a better singer I though Blaze's version of this song was better. Sign of the cross was another one

[Tuscopa]

@fookfocketyfookfook I tend to agree with you. Blaze´s vocals were/are nowhere nere Bruce´s, range and melodic wise, but Blaze´s vocals are more "raw" in my opinion, which suits this song better I guess. Opinions.

[funkykid]

 this song is amazing its a masterpiece.

[PScuisine]

As my Scottish Friend would say To The Bones;from me: never give up, kneel down (if you have to) to better stand up. Till a flame is burning, the night will never be full and till you heart beats, the Life will always wins against darkness and all oppressions. No pain, no sorrow, only Life and the rage of Life against injustice and all sort of misery. Thank you for reading

[Tuscopa]

@PScuisine Great stuff, good ideals and sentences.

[PaganGlade]

Great film, great track. Thank you for uploading :) ~PaganGlade~

[oberstul]

IRON MAIDEN FOREVER!

[Xenda]

This song should be played before every battle!

[leszekbalacha]

Witam!!!Ten kawalek mnie rozpiernicza jestem fanem Iron maiden 23 lata Bruce THE BEST!!!

[funkykid]

Excellent the way you fitted one of the most epic songs and epic movies together...love it.

[adamczechmate]

@funkykid

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

[USnavydmgctrl]

you would think, after this...American revolution...India..., that england/britain would stop trying to take over the world

[FUwogs]

@USnavydmgctrl they stopped 60 years ago...

[dahoss65]

Iron Maiden is the shit, and so is this video!!

[cocomunches]

@dahoss65 Iron Maiden and "shit" should not be in the same sentence. It should be something more like "Iron Maiden" and "God"

[MrShadeNG]

Good to see the ancestry has an impact still.

[paulinesmith44]

*an add on to one wook5ter i believe i left a comment on another video where you posted the same quote from the one and only ' I'm gagging for a knighthood ' connelly. I shall repeat myself just as you do and say that he sold his self righteous scottish ass for a higher glory ( I'm scottish btw ) . He was born into poverty , made a name for himself by stealing jokes he shared with co- workers in the shipyards of Glasgow . He fools no one but himself .

[paulinesmith44]

not a fan of this kind of music at all but was well impressed how the lyrics matched the tone of the film ..i'll even give you 5* for this one ...well done

[adamczechmate]

@paulinesmith44 thanks man =)

[RomanWildernesOfPain]

@paulinesmith44 Don't give the man *5. Give him 5 Bucks or Euros bitch! lol

[paulinesmith44]

@RomanWildernesOfPain We still use sterling here in Scotland so does five 'quid' ' awrite wi yi ? :P Scottish bitches are the best kind :D .

[paulinesmith44]

Respond to this video...Thanks to RomanWildernessOfPain commenting on my comment I was brought back to this brilliant combination of sound and vision. However. can I ask what came first, the song or the film (movie) ? I can just imagine all Iron Maiden fans recoiling in horror at this question. LOL.

[Tuscopa]

@paulinesmith44 The movie came in 1995 and Virtual XI (where the song fits in) came in 1998. Steve Harris himself said he has been inspired mainly on the movie for the lyrics and music on this track. Hope it helps.

[paulinesmith44]

@Tuscopa cheers..that does help. it certainly does compliment the film so well.

[Tuscopa]

@paulinesmith44 Totally agree with you.

Take care man.

[AlwaysWillBe]

2:26, commoooon :D

[masterofpuppts2t]

@adamczechmate I love how u put in the live version of The Clansman from th Rock n Rio Concert and the video is amazing! UP THE IRONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!

[adamczechmate]

@masterofpuppts2t

Thanks man, that means alot. I'll try and put up another video once i get a good idea :)

[masterofpuppts2t]

@adamczechmate np i was sitting here thinking maybe u could do a song from te live version of "Hallowed be Thy Name" from the Flight 666 DVD.

[adamczechmate]

@masterofpuppts2t

yeah i could try and do that :) i just need to find a movie that will match the theme of the song.

[Wook5ter]

Billy Connolly

“Braveheart is pure Australian shite…William Wallace was a spy, a thief, a blackmailer – a c**t basically. And people are swallowing it. It’s part of a new Scottish racism, which I loath – this thing that everything horrible is English. It’s conducted by the great unread and the conceited w***ers at the SNP, those drear...y little pr**ks in Parliament who rely on bigotry for support”

[Goldhelmriel]

@Wook5ter 'William Wallace was blah blah blah, a thief' hey bitch, you cant steal what rightly belongs you already. Would like to see how you would personally react if your home was invaded. Stop your silly martyr routine of 'english=horrible' some things were, some arent. Seems your the one who is seeing in only black & white.

[Wook5ter]

@Goldhelmriel

Sorry you lost me at 'hey bitch' - High School must be going well? Hey don't let the facts get in the way of a good story. History doesn't lie; Hollywood does. Don't use expletives, it makes you seen unintelligent.

[Goldhelmriel]

@Wook5ter rofl, guess shite isnt expletive. Don't use untruths & 'hey kid, you are unschooled and ignorant". It makes you seem douchy & arrogant, and ageist. Why don't you address exactly what he was a thief of, a spy of, and a blackmailer of? Those points specifically. Just know, if you put out offensive comments, ur gonna get a lot more 'hey bitch' responses. xD And don't imply that everything your country or people has ever done is perfect, makes you seem naive and ill-informed.

[Wook5ter]

@Goldhelmriel Sorry I do not understand your high school abbreviations. Do you know what an expletive is? I recommend a dictionary.

Do you know who Billy Connolly is?

Braveheart was written by an American screenwriter called Wallace who knew nothing about William Wallace until after he started writing the film. Good research as our American cousins bastardise Historical accuracy for dollars at the box office. Like Memphis Belle, The Enigma Code etc, etc. Do you want a list of the inaccuracies?

[Goldhelmriel]

@Wook5ter I find your objections to expletives comical b/c your post is rife with them. Do I want a list of inaccuracies' for the love of god nooo! lol Gibson is well known for historical inaccuracy & quite a lot of Braveheart is, although not entirely and i'm well familiar with them.

[Goldhelmriel]

cont. My comments are more directly toward Connolly's interpretation of the issue. Regardless, just because Mel's movies are quite inaccurate doesnt make english foreign policy=good. I recommend a few lessons on the impact of foreign armies on native populations (especially for one's own country) & a less arrogant attitude & cessation of personal attacks as a way to give strength? to your opinion.

[Wook5ter]

@Goldhelmriel Don't let the facts get in the way of a good story.

Wallow.

[Wook5ter]

@Goldhelmriel English = Good. Because I am English. read the comment again.

[ThePetexxx]

I'm not Scottish, I have been only 2 days in Scotland (Fort Wiliam,Ben Nevis),and back to home by train ,and what I have seen from the train ,lovely country

[ThrashMetalGuy]

just thinking about scotland does make me think about "i wish wasn't english at all"

[mrbalazs1995]

Just to be free!!!!!!

[TigreNoturn]

o primeiro filme que eu já chorei!

[gawdimir]

Freedoom.... FREEEEEDOOOMMM!!!!

[BongoExpress]

[avionicswirenut]

@BongoExpress What???? You bashing Maiden....This is metal at it's best....Up the Irons from Oklahoma....

[Christinakayrob]

Well done!

[Product1999]

for all wondering what davidgilmourpr1980's comment was it was as follows

@Product1999 This is just because they can see beauty across and beyond national borders, time and bloodlines. Please, swallow your sarchasm and get out of here!!!

[DirtyTownSouth]

@adamczechmate You're pathetic.

[Product1999]

Kind of ironic that an English band wrote a song honoring the Scots whom their ancestors oppressed.

[NewburyDave1]

@Product1999 Ironic, yes, but there's nothing wrong with that. Many English people, including myself, have Scottish ties or relatives, and vice versa. And no matter what side of the border we're on I think we can all appreciate the universal theme hundreds of years later. It's a good way of trying to 'heal old wounds' as it were. And Maiden have written songs covering all kinds of historical periods all over the world, so this kind of song is nothing new to them. Peace.

[Product1999]

@NewburyDave1 was "run to the hills" written to honor the native americans. Who shall heal their wounds?

[3tangle3]

@NewburyDave1 most scots moved out due to poverty...nothing wrong with admitting it...,many cornish welsh and english moved abroad for similar reasons and also persecution by the state.....no sane person hates individuals...but the state can be a different story ;)

[83jbolt]

Well...He did a "Kick Ass" job!!!

[govy08]

This song always makes me want to fight

[83jbolt]

I wish that this was done w/ Bruce originally!

[83jbolt]

@83jbolt  Well...He did a "Kick Ass job!!!

[banditbike]

[mrrogue72]

@banditbike You should be an Iron Maiden fan, you just haven't listened enough, it's ok we forgive you. Now go listen and revell.

[pmonroy86]
