[CaptNemo100]

New tour dates for the summer of 2012 announced! If you have been a fan for a long time and have never seen the band....GO! The experience is like seeing long lost friends whose music you grew up with. Up the irons and let's rock! :D

[cartersdad421]

26 people are not metal fans.

[Cristov123]

[lilshitty100]

[MrFiliptheslayer]

RocK on \m/

[e11aguru]

Also the theme song to "Metal Evolution" on VH1 Classic.

[Infoman665]

Break out of suggestive mind programming no matter how it makes you feel.

Glad I did..

[THEST0N3RKID]

the only thing I never liked about some bands from that time was the skin tight pants

[SupremeParkitects]

@THEST0N3RKID

i think the same about alot of todays youths haha

[THEST0N3RKID]

@SupremeParkitects I don't know if you're a guy or a girl but I apologize in advance for the vulgarity. I don't know about the rest but I personally need ball space, so I don't understand why guys wear those skinny jeans.

[SupremeParkitects]

@THEST0N3RKID

im a male mate and i 100% agree. All these lads in matching skin tight trousers & vans need their heads knocking together. im more a hip hop man but ive grown up around rock and it makes me cry how girly supposed 'rockers' are nowdays.

Theres a reason your balls hang low and medically you shouldnt wear these trousers lol. And having a token sleeve tattoo does not distratc my eyes from the fact they look like little girls from behind. Lol PEACE!

[junit05]

i wish there were still bands around to make music like this, where are the bruce dickinson's, dio's, geddy lee's of my generation???

[gianspc2]

Enter in my channel and watch my cover please.

[carry2outz]

Awesome amount of tripped horses . . .

[mcskittle3232]

@carry2outz Those clips were from a 1936 movie called The Charge of the Light Brigade and there were about 200 horses that died in the making. Its actually really sad.

[TheHumbuckerboy]

This reminds me of a mixture of celtic rock (E.G Thin Lizzy ) and a sped up version of Deep Purple's 'Child In Time '.

[TheManifesta]

WORLD WAR Z!!!!!!!

[poonaani1]

LONG LIVE CARMAGEDDON!

[Dientik]

thumbs up if being a badass brought you here



[Rebelrocker69]

@DetSomEngangVar93 Are you retarded or just plain stupid????

[feek0713]

What a terrible singer

[FreeAsInFreedoooooom]

@DetSomEngangVar93 Why do people such as yourself feel the need to bring up Justin Bieber in every music video of Youtube. Stop it.

[frazzleberry]

Thumbs up if you're from earth! 

[dragom626]

greatest song and band ever thumbs up if u agree

[MrMeanpeter]

stop buffering you dumb computer

[djsg]

1:29 mark I lol'd because I thought of Raphael de la Ghetto.

[kottnmouthkween]

i just wanted to listen to iron maiden. eddie the trooper lives on!!

[baybars26]

WHY THE FUCK WONT THE SOUND GO LOUDER T_T

[ldvatwa]

Iron Maiden and cracked.com. make such a brilliant time consuming combination. I flinch every time I see one of the trip wires. I would love to piss on the grave of B. Reeves Eason.

[1xskaterguyx11]

wasn't this song by sentenced?

[ACAtheROCK]

what metal song or band can u put up against this...iron maiden-trooper owns them all!!!:)

[infernox10]

Thumbs up if World War Z brought you here. :P

Not that it should be the only reason, of course.

[MrWrothgar]

good song

[MrPlayer258]

fuck ya this song is hella fucking tight

[TheHavermayer]

The film comes to a climax at the Battle of Balaclava, subject of Lord Tennyson's poem The Charge of the Light Brigade. The lancers charge into the valley and brave the Russian cannons, and many are killed. Director Michael Curtiz, shouted "Bring on the empty horses".

The battlefield set was lined with trip wires to trip the cavalry horses. Dozens were killed during filming, forcing U.S. Congress to ensure the safety of animals in motion pictures.

[jamas12008]

Other bands try but just can't quite copy Maidens classic sound.

[Cryptorchild92]

Maiden is untouchable, unrivalled... It doesnt matter if they are in the top 10 on the charts, or whether they sell a million records or not, they Are my Favourite band fuckin Ever!!!...

[Waine999]

Anybody see Errol Flynn?

[turboisturbo]

At least 25 [horses] were killed, although some people claim the figure was as high as 200. Due to the use of trip wires and many animal deaths, Charge of the Light Brigade has never been rereleased by Warner Bros., although the scene has managed a second life as raw material for Iron Maiden's music video "The Trooper".

I love the song.. but that kinda freaks me out.

[KYoukai]

@ctrlaltWOOT Guy's just trolling to stroke his e-peen, no worries... It was the same for me, though, read about it in World War Z and just had to listen to the song.

[smagator]

@ctrlaltWOOT very very heavy metal bands takes them inspiration from literature , your right

[Wyndrax]

@ctrlaltWOOT You're a stupid, ignorant fuck. Go back to your shit kiddy books and leave the music to the adults.

[xsvmaster]

Actually. I don't like it. This could have been way more testicle-quaking.

[Useless2112]

What exactly is Bruce Dickinson doing at 0:49?

[MrFretraperify]

@ctrlaltWOOT who the fuck is darude and sonique, plus England invented metal \m/

[Danowar1990]

16 people won't live to fight another day

[TheEndIsNear421]

Yall need to stop horsin' around.

[IAmKingTony]

awesome song, but this video is hard to watch

[metallicamoose]

@IAmKingTony Those leggings are hard to watch

[Iceozo1]

Dem poor horses. That B.Reeves.Eason's horse body count somewhere above 50.

[MadBadger]

@Iceozo1 could be upto 200 horse deaths, they come down so hard due to trip wires tripping them on purpose... and at full canter.

[Iceozo1]

@MadBadger But only about 20 were confirmed and I was also taking into account when Eason was working on the chariot race in Ben Hur. He really had a vendetta against horses.

[TheGrampajohnson]

it was all worth it, you crazy horses

[jackassGALORE69]

@TheGrampajohnson and one actor

[jliller]

Thumbs up if Cracked.com brought you here!

...not that I wasn't already a big Iron Maiden fan. I just don't watch music videos much.

[SoylentGreenTeaTV]

@jliller Right? Good job Iron Maiden for capitalizing on that shit.

[steeltwistercoaster]

@jliller eye buddy you got some likes on your face

[kanism]

@jliller thanks to MTV, nobody watches music videos much anymore.

[Sch6808]

@jliller those poor horses

[MerchantOfMenace1]

Testosterone... INCREASIIIIIINNNNNNNG!

[xS14Y3Rx]

2:37-2:40  best part :D

[xS14Y3Rx]

This song got me into the brutal and amazing world of Metal long ago.. Thank you random Best of the Beast album :D

[HeadBangar1030]

This song got me into music.

[harrison123rocks]

THumbs up if metal evolution brought you here

[jAbMaN6961]

Metal Evolution brought me here

[jasperwoods]

Justin Bieber should cover this 

[warinpants]

@jasperwoods Fuck you. :)

[JMAXWELLR96]

@jasperwoods No he shouldn't and that's that even if that was a statement about that he won't be able to, that isn't even a jokeable topic because what you just said made a disgrace all on it's own, we don't need 2 disgraces to good music!!!! :)

[jasperwoods]

@JMAXWELLR96 Bieber can pay homage to Iron Maiden 

[Sephiroth122691]

o beast this video is back why they take it down had like 20 mill views >.>

[dredd3471]

The Charge of the Light Brigade...

[angeln1banger]

@ctrlaltWOOT you dumbass IRON MAIDEN ARE BRITISH!! and Britain is in EUROPE not USA. plus Techno originated in America (detroit) not Europe so you got it all wrong. btw KISS are piss-poor

[freemanlisa445]

@ctrlaltWOOT there is no such things as zombies and this song has nothing to do with zombies its about the ones who gave their lives in wars before and during our time

[s00perb4k4]

@ctrlaltWOOT I also was curious because of WWZ. Also, Charge of the Light Brigade FTW! Can't believe that's what the song is about.

[the3boarders]

@ctrlaltWOOT what page?

[muveemaker7]

15 people turned the monitor upside down so they can like it again

[OmniTechno]

damn lol i can't believe this is what the youth these days is listening to. it's obviously shit. everyone here needs to open their minds to real music.

[mzwella324]

@OmniTechno uhm, im a techno and metal/rock fan people can like what ever the fuck the want so you need to open your mind and stop being a nieve lil basterd

[Heavymetalhero91]

@OmniTechno remind me how techno is real music? it sounds like a robot orgy

[swlabr21]

@Heavymetalhero91 Are you nuts? There in nothing techno about this song. Pure instruments.

[Heavymetalhero91]

@swlabr21 if you actually read the thread u would have realized i never said this song was techno i was talking to the guy that called techno real music

[Cryptorchild92]

@OmniTechno DURRR... The youth were listening to this in 1984 as well... Your trolling days are over...

[lilshitty100]

this is a fuckin awesome song !!!!!!

[comedy677]

15 people were shot in the ears

[duuude3]

My mom saw them in the 80s and I am soooooo jealous.

[Cryptorchild92]

@duuude3 Haha... I saw them live in 2008 in Bombay, India... Thou shalt be jealous of me too eh?... :) :D ..

[MFAsh1969]

@Cryptorchild92 I saw them in Houston, Texas in 1988...got you beat by 20 years.

[Cryptorchild92]

@MFAsh1969 NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOO!!!!... :) \m/

[zekky1000]

DAMN IT ! STEVE IS A FUCKING GREAT BASSIST !!!

[rkochamp07]

@ctrlaltWOOT thats the exact reason why i searched this song \m/

[cubby3o5]

Guess who covered this song.

[IdleDrifter]

I could not imagine charging cannons and a human wall of bayonets attached to muskets on horseback because some dumbass got the orders wrong.

[jimboHtown01]

Best song by Maiden

[NYChica23]

@jimboHtown01 Agreed ♥♥

[freemanlisa445]

@jimboHtown01 this song is about wars that have been fought and wars being fought not wars being fought in a book

[dredd3471]

@freemanlisa445 it is actually about a specific attack in a specific battle...

[fatcowbow]

me and my bigger brother love iron madden!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MrGreyyeti]

seen these dudes live back in their heyday.awsome band..

[Thor599]

The only way to ever go into battle is with Iron Maiden playing!

[xdrunkenmunkeyx]

@ctrlaltWOOT

[RATTrules1001]

When i was in middle school for our homcoming they played this song in our football gamee final score Us 44-0 Them

[kolothepanda]

[Astrodan2600]

It's good to see my favorite airline pilot has found a nice hobby...

[OrsoFriulano1998]

@Astrodan2600 xD

[gamecubedude03]

I'm not even a huge Maiden fan, but this is an amazing song. And a very entertaining video.

[catshumpcats3]

@gamecubedude03 Everybody in Maiden are good showmen and great musicians.

[doctorvox1]

[Reingur]

They where really good back than ... biggest mistake was not to convince Adrian Smith to stay. Adrian brought out the best in Dave and vice verse.

[RastaRobsReview]

Iron Maiden is the greatest band ever but honestly Eddie scares me shitless

[MultiLiamm]

since when did techno get this explosive

[RaderizDorret]

@MultiLiamm Try metal, dude...

[MultiLiamm]

@RaderizDorret what i meant was techno was never this explosive

[gnpahdc]

Steve Harris states he was greatly inspired by Pete Way (bass for UFO). Listen to the live version of Lights Out in London (a great 1978 version is here on youtube currently) and you'll hear the connection.

[GeneralOkan15]

i wish i could play like the gitarrist's
