  • awesome brother!! fear of the dark next!

  • Beautiful stuff

  • Really great! Are there any tabs? ^-^

  • @0Vitax thanks:) there are no tabs yet but when I release my acoustic Maiden tribute album, I'll be releasing a tab book as well. This should be finished in about two months!

  • I totally enjoyed that....what's the best tab for that?

  • Tabs please! Nice work

  • Very nice, you are a great guitarist.

  • This is very nice! I hope you don't my mind that I totally ripped this vid and got this as a ringtone on my cellphone! LOVE IT!!!

  • @PrinceCharming25 haha thanks, no problem! Perhaps I should start releasing ringtones one day!

  • If you ever release an album of acoustic maiden covers, I think "Nylon Maiden" would be a perfect name!

  • @onearmedbandit86 Don't worry, he already came up with that name a few days after arranging the first song. ;-)

  • I can't imagine what might have made this arrangement better. I'll be pulling it apart for weeks. Thank you for bringing something different to an already great song.

  • Dude, I could hear it every day, I pray for guys like that one

  • Very good, man!! Congratulations!

  • zozo thomas, wat een fans. :P

    well done hoor!

  • I don't know if it's the genius of maiden's songwriting or your own abilities but that sounded great!

  • @Alinka204

    This is not just the electrical guitar of Wasted Years played on an acoustic guitar; it is an arrangement of the multiple melodies in the song(the guitars, vocals etc), that's why it isn't the same as the electrical guitar tabs you were probably studying.

  • so beautiful

    congratulations

  • dude binnenkort ist weer kamperen op de paal:P hahaha was echt relaxed! en way to go met je guitar skills man! we laten t nog wel weten when  we go camp!

  • Well done!!!

  • MASSA PA CARALHOWW...SHOW SHOW

  • Wow . . .Just wow

  • awesome!

  • all i got to say is Wow that was epic!

  • ThomasZwijsen2007, my jaw just dropped when I heard your acoustic rendition of "Wasted Years", which has to be my favorite Iron Maiden song. Your cover was brilliant! When I looked up "Iron Maiden Acoustic Covers" on YouTube, I wasn't expecting anything to sound good, because I didn't imagine that Iron Maiden, in acoustic form, would translate well. Your sheer talent proved that I have an impoverished imagination. You would make Iron Maiden proud. Did you do this by ear?

  • I dont words, amazing !!!

  • * * * * *

    Cool, dude

  • realy cool man =)

  • Hi, verry nice played. Can you please post the music sheet or tabs for this? I would like to learn it. Thx

  • Amazing play !! The way you make the notes 'sing' the vocals is very cool. I hope the members of Iron Maiden have watched your vidoes.

  • So beautiful!

  • talent thats talen with lessons....

  • this kid gets all the girls

  • This is one of the best covers of a song i've ever heard!

  • Beautiful, brings me so many memorys, i actually like started to tear up

  • Man I'm totally blown away!! I can't say enough good things....Well done!! :) :)
