  • <3 :*

    

  • I heard the original version of this song by UFO. I really wanted to like it, because it was the original, but man the vocals fell so flat. Blaze did a fantastic job on this. The band as a whole brought more life to this song.

  • Best Metal cover, my opinion

  • Kocham tą piosenkę <3

  • metalica isnt even close to as good as maiden

  • @djblitzt Well, that's not really fair. It's like comparing apples and bananas, NWOBHM and Thrash. Both tastes good but the one is nothing like the other.

    I like both bands. But to me it's a mood thing. When I have an urge for heavier metal I play 80's Metallica. When I crave more "old school metal" I listen to Maiden.

    Right now... Metallica's got nothing on Maiden though :P :)

  • @djblitzt There is nothink to compare at all. They are different styles. I like both. On both i grow up. It's like comparing Elvis Prasley to Beatles or Pink Floyd. They are all good, thay are all humans not gods. It's like comparing good food to sex. I like it both. Both is need to feel real good. I dissagre with you. \m/ Rock, Hard Rock, Heavy Metal, Trash Metal and more havy and "nasty" music for ever!

  • iron maiden had released epic album after epic album since they started and if any1 disses them then they have no apreciation for real music

  • -Mom, where we go now?

    -We go to doctor little boy,

    -Doctor Steward?

    -No, Doctor Doctor.

  • Bruce couldnt sing this song better than Blaze.

  • I dont care whos singing... This music is a kickass song

  • Blaze kick asses.

  • blaze is not good for this kind of music

  • I'm usually almost allergic to covers. But on occasion... they just kick ass. This is one of those few. I just love it! It's a great partystarter.

    Like the night before the maiden gig a few months ago when we had an all-night party outside the stadium (Ullevi in Gothenburg) and this tune started blasting out of the boombox speakers... it just felt like "now it begins" :D

    FUCKING LOVE IRON MAIDEN!

  • Beh! No Bruce :/

  • Blaze is a great singer I'm a big fan of wolfsbane but he wasnt right for Iron maiden. Virtual X and The X factor both kinda sucked.

  • Blaze is a great singer, But Bruce dickinson is the true maiden singer of you ask me. The reason why I don't like blaze is because of X factor and Virtual XI.

    But his voice is awesome and his voice and this song is a really great match

  • awesome song

    even the UFO version is good

  • the love is there , feels good. they rocked it.

  • I think blaze nailed this song. Blaze is also great singer, though not in the same level as Bruce. He just wasn't at the his best in Iron Maiden.

  • I like the voice of Blaze here. Cuz it suits the song! :D \m/

  • why does every Maiden video go on about Blaze vs Dianno vs Bruce... so bloody boring

  • Kurwa

  • Who cares who's singing. It's very hard to murder a great song. This is awesome.

  • brilliant, but its not as good as saxons original.

  • @DoctorWho50Years what the hell am i saying?! i meant UFO!!!!! sorry guys!

  • @DoctorWho50Years Accepted :D

  • @Slynnkybo that was one hell of a fail by me :(

  • @wranglers575 : i think one of the main reasons why people love Paul DiAnno is because he's not Bruce... ...but he sings good, too.

  • 8 people who disliked should visit the doctor, quickly.

  • grazie Blaze ! thank you Blaze !

  • i think that this song is from UFO but very very good cover from Iron maiden

  • @Millsy2611

    Yes, they went global etc. But what's to say that they wouldn't have done the same with Paul? We'll never know and we should be grateful for what we've been given! I've just got some really good memories of seeing them at the Ipswich Gaumont, tainted, slightly, with some (smaller) bad memories of seeing them at the Ipswich Gaumont. Cheers :)

  • I can't believe all the comments about how great Dickinson is. The bloke can't hold a tune to save his life. I saw Maiden with D' Anno once, then i had the misfortune of seeing them twice with Dickinson (i only went the second time because i was sure he must have had a bad night the first time...i was wrong). Maiden ended for me after making two superb albums. Dickinson should stick to flying instead of trying to sing. Opinions are like belly-buttons - everyone's got one :)

  • @Cheesehead5446

    You can't deny Dickinson has played a huge part in making the band the worldwide success they've become but I do tend to agree with you and for me nothing will ever top the first two albums and the memories of seeing them in those early days led by Di'Anno's raw energy

  • And waitin for da show to begin....

  • i wanna see maiden again !!!

  • Fucking awesome. Pisses me off to see these kids arguing again..

  • You can't compare Bruce and Blaze you damned fools!

    Each of them is great,each of them has something specific--->each of them has his own songs...except The Sign Of The Cross-Bruce's version is better ;)

  • @Sqiish And Educated Fool.  Bruce totally rocks that one too.

  • @GunnySGT1911

    I couldn't find it :(

  • @Sqiish It was a live version, that much I remember. I can't say it wasn't a bootleg. Pretty sure I heard it online, here or on Bing.

  • @GunnySGT1911 I guess there was no record of this one with Bruce ;)

  • There is no reason to hate Blaze. He gave the band he's own mark just like Paul Di'Anno did and Bruce, ofcourse.

    Bruce is a God, but it's awfull to hate or contempt Blaze.

  • He's a good singer, but Blaze isn't the best singer like Bruce or the original like Paul.

  • I like this cover ...Bruce is a God but Blaze is a good singer ...respect for him please !

    He got huge balls replacing Bruce ... does anybody want to try and go onstage with Steven, Adrian, Dave and Nicko and sing Maiden's full setlist ?

    Maiden slightly change the lyrics of UFO:

    "Doctor doctor, please

    Don't you know I'm going fast

    Doctor doctor, please

    Don't you know I just can't last"

    It's funny as they clearly talk about early ejaculation :-))))

  • @goodyears73 If you have every been addicted to drugs you might recognize the lyrics perfectly fit that as well...just saying..

  • UFO FOR THE EFFING WIN!!

  • Paul= The progenitor

    Blaze= The Black King

    Bruce= The "god" of metal.

  • great voice

  • They all have ups and downs in band but in long run it is bruce and it always will be. but sure i hope to see some special gig where all those who had in some time recorded maiden songs dennis stratton,clive burr,paul di anno,blaze bailey and current members play it together.. like clive burr trust organisation benefit gig it would be great.

  • This song is so good its frightening lol!

  • Good cover. Blaze is the best suited for this type of music as well, this would have sounded worse with Bruce because Bruce just wouldn't sound right imitating Phil Mogg's voice. Although in general Bruce is my favorite singer for Maiden

  • Hey listen to Blaze singing Wasted Years and the Trooper now he does an Acoustic version just type it in Blaze Bayley wasted years trooper acoustic

  • It's thanks to this cover i found out about UFO,,,and now they're one of my favorite bands!

    

  • It's thanks to this cover i found out about UFO,,,and now they're one of my favorite bands!

  • I like the original version better than this. UFO was a great band!

    And don't get me wrong I'am a huge fan of Iron Maiden!!!!

  • blaze aint bruce, but DAMN he sing this song well!

  • i think all the lead singers were good.

  • The more you hate the more people worth knowing hate you.

  • Fuck you all speculants and haters. Blaze was great so go take a hike you f-king douchebags...

  • I think one of the main reasons why people hate Blaze is because he's not Bruce......

  • @wranglers575: Iron Maiden without Bruce and Adrian..???? There isn't much left....nothing to do about the quality of the other members (including Gers).

  • @wranglers575 does one even need a better reason :D jk he is good :)

  • @wranglers575 personally i don't hate him. he is a very talented singer, but ppeople don't like him because Bruce was the best singer to the band, and hardly Maiden are imagined without him.....

  • @wranglers575 IMHO Blaze better in Afraid To Shoot Strangers then Bruce. And he saves Maiden after Bruce leave the band.

  • blaze actually works with THIS really good.

  • good intro

  • blaze only wishes he was good enough to lick the sweat off of bruce's nuts

  • who cares who's singing?!? paul was great, still sings in his own band, with more of an Ozzy singing style, Blaze was good, but sounds a lot better in his current, self-titled, metalica type band... And Bruce shall become a GOD

  • One Hell of a Cover.

  • Its better than the original version from UFO and Blaze its a fantastic metal singer but Bruce its THE METAL SINGER

  • @kaskabas better? no one in this world has the tone of Michael Schenker, one of the best guitarists ever

  • doctor doctor please, dont you know this song kicks ass!

  • great track this is!

  • Fodastico

    up the irons!!

  • I prefer the original..

  • Bruce is definitely the voice of Maiden but Bayley and Di'anno are very talented.

  • Great Cover..!!

  • every singer iron maiden have had and still have are awesome paul dianno was ace, blaze was ace , and bruces voice is staggeringly amazing

    UP THE IRONS

  • I remember this track from the "Lord of Flies" single. Great cover recording. It really fits Blaze's voice.

    It's hilarious seeing "fans" who still whine about Blaze Bayley. It's like stepping into 1995 all over again. I may as well be reading this with AOL 3.0 and a dial-up modem. Not only has he been OUT of the band for over 10 years, but the reunion with Bruce has now lasted about as long as his original 1982-93 run. So people, get over it already!

  • @geezerbill amen bro!

  • @geezerbill this was also a track from the "Virus" single

  • mm.. Good Song!! I Love It! But Bruce is the best in Iron Maiden!

  • Wow. Blaze did amazing in this song.

  • This song is a UFO song and you fucking cannot touch schenker with any of maidens guitarist's . But this is a great fucking cover

  • @MrWifeaggro Same with Maiden

  • All you dicks out there battling over the lead singer debate for Iron Maiden go fuck yourself. Who gives a shit. If you don't like one version, don't listen to it. There are so many recordings of so many Maiden tunes, listen the one YOU like and shut the fuck up. Each singer has contributed to the greatness of Maiden. Leave it at that. Every song can have the power to influence another song/band/musician that could end up providing an outstanding song/riff/etc...

  • Blaze Bailey wasn't a bad singer, he just didn't fit the band.

  • @TheAmazingUploader The same debate came up when Bruce joined Iron Maiden for about 30 years ago

  • @TheAmazingUploader What the fuck are you yaping about? He did, just that people like you can't appreciate it and people like you suck. Do it better yourself if you can you homo.

  • @TheAmazingUploader Maybe he wasn't a bad singer but nevertheless he was the worst singer of Iron Maiden.

  • @Musikbar90 really? i didnt like paul that much, just an opinion! dont hate me please!

  • @ZzUnforgottenzZ I also don't like Paul. Bruce is simply the best!

  • @Musikbar90 agreed! You don't get many like Bruce

  • @TheAmazingUploader Blaze is a great singer, But stand against Bruce who is the greatest singer alive!

    That's hard

  • tis blaze singing, does a damn good job of it too i reckon, always makes the hairs on m neck stand on end when i listen to it though, all i can think of is the crowd cheering and jumping and singing around me as they know that miaden are literally just about to step on stage, the pride steve must feel thinking he created that monster of a band with a crowd following like that

  • man when i went to see them july 23 2010 i heard this and everybody was yelling the word jumping and throwing

  • blaze did great here

  • God, this song goes right through me. The melancholy feel to it just floors me. Makes me think so much about life.

  • @killingseason777 great sentence, man. cheerz

  • ATTN: to any maiden fan

    Im from singapore, a huge maiden fan, but im unable to get commercially unreleased material like this, i.e Best of B-Sides, can anyone share some light on how i can obtain it because downloading will be outrightly disrespecting Maiden.

  • @aditadit Having such a strict conscience does you no good, my friend, just download it. Anyone who pays for music anymore is foolish. Maiden is great, but they are multi-millionairs because of the money we fans have given them. They really do not care about you personally. Cheers.

  • @robertjohnson487 you are just partially right. they are rich because of us, but the guy above said the right thing, which is it would be disrespectful. if whole music becomes nothing but a bunch of invisible MP3 files (without booklets, lyrics, and real touch/feel to it) then all's gone to hell.

  • is this Paul Di'Anno? 

  • i like Iron Maiden but when it comes to this song I prefer UFO's version. It's much more energetic.

  • Dianno is a punk . . . . Bruce is the best !

    And Blaze is a good hard rock singer , he's not for Heavy Metal . .

  • The 7 people that dislikes this will die alone

  • can you send me this?

  • The best cover :)

    

  • It's a Cover of "UFO" with Michael Schenker from Germany

  • its blaze

  • This is a great song.

  • I actually thought it was Dianno at first

  • @Aissaelena It was D'ianno first, right after came Bruce and then Blaze... Straight after came Bruce again... Obviously there were other singers between and before these, but I am just counting the most important ones...

  • the prove that blaze's a awesome singer and steve didn't knew how to use him better!

  • this cover with bruce would be epic!

  • UFO- Doctor Doctor Cover Awesome!!! Iron Maiden Is "The Best of The Beast"

  • Paul o Bruce?

  • @1019046350 blaze

  • @1019046350  it's Blaze

  • @1019046350

    mmm.... tough one, I think Bruce

  • great version of a UFO classic. the drumming is awesome.

  • the original is always better, except when Iron Maiden covers a song

  • @destrvctio Yeah, how the hell do they do it?

  • nobody has vocal like BRUCE

  • BLAZE WAS AWESOME ...NOT BETTER...UP THE IRONS

  • Is Blaze Bayley or Paul Di Anno the singer of this song????

  • Comment removed

  • blaze bayley paul dianno n dickonson are the best.........

  • i prefer the orignal

  • @Isle0fRed the original is always better mate but still,this one is pretty good!

  • new maiden song here /watch?v=0lwrg2u_gCM

  • Uuuh x dios amo esta cover :D

  • yo soy un gran admirador de iron maiden, es mi grupo favorito, pero debo admitir que esta version es basura en comparacion con el tema de UFO

  • di'anno is givin credit on the dvd early days :D

  • i freaking love this cover! It's amazing alot better than the original, obviously :D hehe!!

  • UP THE IRONS FROM CHILE

  • Wow!  His voice is so clear on this track, sounds amazing.

  • @FrederichSchulz What are you talking about, his voice is always clear. It's just the quality that would make it muffled or something, and studio quality is always good. Either way he sounds the same during live, which is why Bruce is fucking awesome.

  • Awesome cover from UFO !!! Great Blaze performance !!!

  • Up the Irons from HUNGARY!!

    Welcome back this August on the Sziget!!

    Thank you for the 30 or so years.

  • Blaze your awesome Fuck anyone who disagrees!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @omnadrener fuck me I guess, Blaze Bayley is a good singer, but did not fit with Iron Maiden in my opinion.

  • @TwelveRaptor

    I agree with you.. But Blaze is just incredible on this song, and he also does a good job on Sign of The Cross, especially the chorus if you ask me

  • @omnadrener Baze had a deep rch voice but was unable to reach the high notes that Bruce could hit.

  • @omnadrener WORD!!!

  • UP THE IRONS FROM GREECE !!!!

  • F***ing Great song!!! I know this song is meant for a girl - but for me I strike out the 'She' and change it to 'He'

    Can't wait to see this band on July 3rd in Toronto!!!

  • @MyWeny I always think its about a drug..fits quite well..and if you have ever been addicted its obvious..

  • Comment removed

  • @HighMindedLunacy Oh I see. Amazing concert last summer!!!

  • UP TE IRONS

    BRASIL

  • 1xXCHAOSXx1 i wasnt saying bruce is a bad singer.........just saying what in my opinion was a better album (note MY OPINION) XD

  • UP THE IRONS FROM SALONICA GREECE!!!!

  • UP THE IRONS!!! From Germany!

  • muito top!!!

  • The best Blaze Bailey's performance in Maiden, by far. It' sounds a lot better on this B-Side than in X Factor or Virtual Crap.

  • uFO!

  • Great performance.

    Maiden forever.

    UP THE IRONS!

  • Paul Dianno was the original singer kiddies... Killers album owns all!

  • I doubt that, if the band never had Dickinson they wouldn't be as big as they are now, Number of the best, was one of their greatest albums buddy

  • @theladysmanbby you are right mate

  • @Beardog1991 bruce is so much better. he owns the iron maiden voice!!!!!

  • awesome intro
