  • I love this song! But the beginning always will remind me of the Power Rangers for whatever reason. . . .

  • 240....we meet again.

  • makes me want to play my guitar hero ..this song never gets old

  • ww3 is coming

  • The clock moved up it's 5 minutes to midnight! If it hits 2 again i'm putting this song on an endless loop.

  • Sounds better when not recorded with a potato

    

  • thumbs up if your going to play this song tonight

  • i know where they got the idea for the song, the atomic doomsday clock, once it reaches midnight its the end of the world

  • Iron Maiden played this in the studio at midnight when they reached 2:00.

  • i got a 666 tattoo in honor of this AWESOME BAND

  • @MrASSBLASTER007 that is cool but you should have gotten like an eddie one or something...

  • @newcstleBa thinkn bout it

  • Now this song always makes me want to work harder. Man up the Irons. Now this music is what people should be listening to.

  • 161 people with 2 minutes to midnight they will die with there boots on because i am numbering the beasts

  • rock out dudes

    

  • yea so my kids are listening to some scream-o shit last night and I say" Quit bull-shitting and play some MAIDEN!!!!" I know I raised them better than that...all hail IRON MAIDEN

  • hands up best fucking song ever...

  • one of the only songs i cruise to in GTA vice city haha :P ....UP THE IRONS!!!

  • It's four minutes past midnight by the time they're done playing the song...

  • Two minutes to midnight.

    Six minute song.

  • Metallica - Megadeth - Iron Maiden My top 3 bands, I wish I had 3rd eye I would have give each eye to each band

  • Where do people get the fact that I'm attacking free masons. People are under attack by groups of people who talk on there cell phones about one another everyday. No honor at all. I pull up this on Google and I get free mason in it. What! This song is about a Devil or quizathadarauch that come when the population of the earth becomes so big the earth can't sustain it. These groups will beleive in him or her and support them. It has always happen, its history.

  • awesome song of badassery

  • Read the words..and think for yourself.

  • This song is about the groups of people who develop weapons who kill others. It's about the so-called religious who believe watching porn is wrong but they have 7 kids which is supported by the gov(you!). The parents are fat and the children are as thin as a rail. How did these people be allowed to have the children is the question I would ask. How did they have those children Divine intervention? Pornographic sex that how. These people would murder a child if they thought he was the devil.

  • the first rock band to openely challenge freemasons.. this is why i love iron maiden.. this song changed it for me, God bless

  • awesome! im watching this at 11:58 pm.

  • this song makes me want to ride a motorcycle in Vice City

  • up the irons!

  • Anyone comparing Metallica to Maiden is INSANE! I love Metallica, and as a drummer, Lars Ulrich is my idol, but COME ON! Iron Maiden is the ultimate heavy metal band, Nicko is better with fills than Lars, Steve Harris is the best bassist of all time, Bruce is the most entertaining frontman of all time. Metallica is great, but there isnt a band even close to being as epic as maiden

  • @Ramtough93 maiden was first so they win and they inspired Metallica

  • @bloodgordge Maiden inspired everybody after 1980

  • @bloodgordge What are you even talking about? Metallica and Maiden came out at almost the exact same time and had TOTALLY contrasting styles. I love Metallica and Maiden, but that comment was literally pointless, do you like, have anything of an idea of what logic is? I highly doubt it. Yes, Maiden is the better band in my opinion, but that doesn't mean they inspired Metallica.

  • @OneXTDG Maiden started in 1975 Metallica in 1981 so get your facts right, as for Maiden being better they never sold out and every new generation of metal gets something from the older generation

  • @bloodgordge With first albums dropping in 1980 and 1983. That is the exact same generation, correct me if I'm wrong please. I agreed with Maiden being better so why are you even arguing with me about that, you fucking tool? Go listen to Number of the Beast and Kill 'Em All 1982/3 albums) and tell me if those albums are even remotely similar, please.

  • How can enybody put 'dislike' on any maiden's song.

  • @MrKortina cuz they were fuckin around or they like nigger music

  • ha i remember when my mom used to hide this cd from me so i wouldnt listen to it. well im 17 now and i can buy my own shit with my own money. cant hide MY shit can you mom

  • @Ki11J0y725

    For what its worth happy birthday, I'm glad some people from my generation still enjoy the good shit.

    The lyrics Iron maiden uses are amazing, most bands now just scream and sound the same because they can't write lyrics worth a damn.

  • @dukenukemthreed ya man im 14 and maiden rules!!!!

  • This reminds me of on vice city.

  • 160 people are unborn in the womb

  • I start work at exactly 12:00 am but I always clock-in at 2 minutes to midnight.

  • awesome song..intro is so sick !!! when you have time check this cover i did and tell me is it good or should i remove it

    watch?v=HNmp21-8CjI

  • 160 people need to have a talk with eddie UP THE IRONS FROM VEGAS 

  • best fucking song EVER 

  • Simply the best metal band ever.

  • @DickLodge68 haha close the best band ever is metallica but maiden still rules!!!!!

  • @twistedzombie5 Okay for you! Bruce Dickinson has best vocals....something Hetfield could never even compare with. The others are tricky - sure Hammett is great but against Murray, Smith, and later Jers?Tricky those guitarists! Are you seriously going to put Lars up against Nicko? That's rubbish. So, it really comes to the songs and opinion doesn't it? On every realm Maiden beats out Metallica - except for your opinion of course - and that's fine. Your opinion is wrong! Up the Irons!

  • @DickLodge68 lol ya maiden is awesome but i just like what metallica songs are about and how they play them more plus i heard metallica first

  • @DickLodge68 They are great...

  • @Kinsey0969 This is my motherfuckin band......................I have been trying to get my friends on the Maiden train but....you know

  • legendary

  • @plosassUSA Really,I must confirm inthewrongdecade1 is totally right,faggot. If you like justin bieber (I don't write his name's first letter big,he doesn't deserve it!), why did you come here, to make a fuckin faggot out of yourself! Are you really that gay! And you really got to get of that USA name off your name,You're no-one popular, so please, just lay in your bed with no friends on 100 miles distance,and kill yourself.

  • Comment removed

  • @Sitara1233 nice try for thumbs up dude you obviously have no idea what two minutes to midnight means

  • GREATEST METAL BAND OF ALL FUCKIN TIME!

  • inthewrongdecade1 awesome come back dude that was awesome to read

  • @plosassUSA take the USA off your name faggot . is that why your name says plo ass cuz you like it up your ass you fucking faggot . You must be into little boys if you like justin beiber. just wait the cops will be at your door and take your computer and all your kiddy porn you have

  • This is good, but why the hell is it 6 minutes long when they only have 2 minutes till midnight?

  • Vice City.

  • @UnknownSect333 only on V ROCK wit DJ LAZLOW!

  • Such a cool tune. Lyrics are kind of F***ed up, but still one of my favorites!

  • @CRAMERR69 What's wrong with the lyrics? It's pretty suggestive in its anti-war message, and that's a big part of the appeal in the song, for me anyway.

  • @BlueScreenLife

    You need to listen to the song or get educated. The song isn't about war. Maiden doesn't do the political thing. This and the number of the beast are from THE BIBLE. The unborn that they must kill is the anti Christ. 2 minutes to midnight is 2 minutes till it's born. Many of their songs are the telling of old stories because these guys are very intelligent and know history, mythology, and even the bible.

  • @67BuickGS340 Sigh. Ever heard of the Doomsday Clock? H-bomb testing and the Cold War? I have no idea where you get your zany references to the Bible dude. You don't think Run to the Hills has some sort of political message at its heart? And the Bible? I read it, yawned a little, found it's twisted morals to be rather reprehensible, but now I know it ain't a big deal. I don't believe in a invisible sky god made up by people who want to control other people.

  • @BlueScreenLife Well you see, it doesn't matter what you believe in. Two minutes to midnight and the number of the beast contain biblical reference and even quotes. As for run to the hills, it as well as the trooper, aces high and others are based on telling historical stories. Other songs are based on mythology. You see, these guys are inteligent and use a lot of great existing stories to write songs. If you listen to the songs, you may pick up on some of what you slept through in school.

  • @67BuickGS340 Ah yes, Iron Maiden just sing about white men slaughtering native americans just for the sake of telling a story and nothing more. Right. Well believe in your god delusion if you must. I don't have much else to say except that you shouldn't swallow everything textbooks and teachers shove down your throat without teaching you how to cultivate a sense of critical thinking.  I'm afraid that is it your education that wanting and lacking sir. Good night!

  • @BlueScreenLife My god delusion? I didn't write those songs. I don't even know if they believe them or if they look at them as more mythology like the flight of Icarus.

  • @67BuickGS340 Hmm. Touche. Good point. I am still not convinced (I am still too dense? :P) about your view that two minutes to midnight has particular allusions to the Bible though. I've always understood it to be two minutes to the 12 on the Doomsday Clock, signaling all out nuclear disaster. I'd love some Bible verses that allude to that specifically sent my way if you don't mind the effort. I may be wrong after all.

  • @BlueScreenLife Nah, you're 100% correct. The song is a clear (and powerful) antiwar statement, and "2 minutes to midnight" is absolutely a reference to the Doomsday Clock. There's some Christian mythology thrown in, but it's not the focus of the song.

  • @wlmason73 The songs about Free Masons and there attribution to world wide war in there plans, if u saw the symbolism in this video, citing the eye of horus and european meetings

  • @pacmanzz Freemasonry is local not international practice and contains nothing sinister. It is, or was, a place where the ideals of modern sience and religion can exist together without the petty arguing of the common man.

  • first song i ever heard by maiden <3

  • i like druox's version better

  • .....as the reasons for the carnage cut their meat and lick their gravy...we all oil the jaws of the war machine and then feed it with our babies!!!

    There's a lot of truth there.

    ONE OF THE GREATEST LINES IN HEAVY METAL1

  • @Duane77able  Up the Irons !

  • Hello there fellow metalheads.

    Instead of a Metal rebellion i propose a new plan.

    1. Don't bash other metal artists, we need to unite. We cant fight against pop music if we arent even together.

    2. Watch more and other metal videos to get it to the top of the youtube vid list

    3. Instead of bashing pop, promote metal with logical reasons, not just "METAL RULES!"

    If you like this idea, thumbs it up JUST so people can see it, and also spread it around if you like this idea

  • i think my bro like this band cuz he has the shirt and we went to a carnival one day i noticed me had the shirt on so i was like "wow i wonder wat kind band that is? it must be perteh kewl."

  • "Conan...what is best in life?" "To crush your enemies...to see them driven before you...to hear the lamentations of their women...and Iron FUCKING Maiden!!"

  • YUVAL I GIVE U REASON THX SATAN TO GIVE A OTHER LIVE TO THE BEST METAL BAND YYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAA­AAAA BIATCH IRON MAIDEN FTW

  • Hey guys, I was listening some Iron Maiden songs on youtube and it is freakin' awesome, pure genius. So what album should I first buy to begin with Iron Maiden? Thanks

  • @nintendopsboxreviews They're all good you can't go wrong. My first one was Live After Death, their first live album. Try that one.

  • @nintendopsboxreviews Hmm. Most are just preferences but I would suggest 'Number of the Beast' first as it has there most famous songs on. My personal favourite is 'Seventh son of A Seventh son' and after you like these, you can move on to other stuff and there recent albums like 'a matter of life and death' and 'brave new world are amazing'
