Well, yeah type FM that girl live in youtube's box, it's the first result you get, it's HD and uploaded by acarabal, Steve is of course older, but i think the guitarist is an other guy, i'm not sure, but the guitars are far better, faster, harder (IMO)...Check it out, i'm sure that a lot of you will be suprised, how an "old" band can play better than they were young..it's fuckin great, really Rocks..
Great fuckin song, a jewel of AOR..and it's even better at a live the band played at 2007..cause, ya know, when an 80's band play live nowadays the music they used to play 20 or more years before, usually they aren't as good as the original version..BUT FM is really better, Harder from the original and faster..i don't know, maybe that's just me, but watch this on the live they played 2007, i don't remember the place right now..fuck..i'll post again..
I appreciate Iron Maiden but this music obviously is made by FM to FM
Astounding essence, vibrition, this is why Heavy Metal is 80´s and 80´s shall last beyond forever, sounds interesting with Bruce Dickinson, but ... FM deserve to be Excelsior!
It is a 'cover' of sorts. It was written for 'The entire population of Hackney' which featured Adrian Smith but the song was co written by future FM guitarist And Barnett who was a long time friend of the band.

@flavio666ist primeiro o nome da banda: FM, lugar de musiquinha pop farofa e banda poser. Vai ver q essa é uma versão homossexual, a versão hetero é a do Maiden
Saw these guys live in Newcastle in 2010 and they were as good as ever, looked a bit different but who cares!! That Girl is still their best ever track - so here's to the next 20 years.
@MJDickson69 They are back together and touring again.I managed to see them last year here in Birmingham.Check out last years album Metropolis it's brilliant.
Both bands have equally enjoyable versions of the song. From what I've read, the band Iron Maiden members created featured at least one member of FM. I'm not sure about the origin of this song, but if Maiden members created the song during their stint with Hackney, I believe that means a member of FM participated in the development of the song as well.
There is no better this way or that, the music was created for FM so the owner is always the exact way, but obvius if there is a better way is appreciate with FM and Iron Maiden, Heavy Metal essence that is it
I listened to that Iron Maiden's version of that song and i don't understand anyone who says FM's version is worse. I mean this version has a better beat, great sound, really cool guitar solo and the vocal is way, waaaaaaay much better.
@Monamika84 Well, for one the beat really isn't any better, there's constant gallop and it isn't slow and boring, the solo and even the normal lead parts are waaay better than the solo in here (but it is good in here) and the vocals aren't any better or worse they're just different styles... I love AOR and Heavy Metal, but when I pick up a guitar and just play I play metal because I enjoy playing more than just legato chords, there is substance in metal that AOR severely lacks (musically)
Maidens version of this kicks this out of the water. I cant even listen to this all the way through without cringing while Maidens i can listen to over and over.,
Hi - great stuff - would love to see FM live and would love to see a FM/SHY tour. By the way new SHY album due later 2010 - following up the brilliant Sunset & Vine (2005) - the new album will rock and would love to see some FM fans at SHY's gigs -
Who else thinks a tour together would work? Great band FM .
I read somewhere that Maiden never would have recorded it if they knew FM would do a version too. I really like this version, but it's completely different. And the Maiden version has some of the best Bruce Dickinson singing ever.
Awesome track off the best British melodic rock album ever - Indiscreet. Co-written by Andy Barnett and features the unique talents of Chris Overland on guitar...Mernvhas now swapped the pink suit for a more reserved pinstripe number complete with hat...jury is out on which is better!!
hell no, iron maiden kick SOO much ass, but this version has WAAAY more soul.....you really appreciate the keyboard playing in this too....and the epic mong running on the beach!! THIS IS PRICELESS!!!!! FM RULE!!! XD
I don't think you need to be a fanboy to appreciate Bruce Dickinson's vocals more earlier in Maiden's history. He's always amazing IMO, but I think the way those people who thumbed down your last comment took it is "Bruce is better now than ever", which I, too, disagree with. Can't beat that scream on Number...
why the hell do people have to resort to mindless bullshit comments???......Fm fans will prefer this and Maiden fans will prefer the other...so for god sake grow up and dont slag peoples preferences......
you would obviously know what dickless is you brainless idiot. If maiden want to do their version of a song that's up the them and you listen to it but don't come on here slagging others off cos I bet you couldn't do better!
