And the song is I think the best single Maiden have had out in donkeys years. It 39 s a really rocking single. Basically the feel of it is so up in term of the vibe you could almost be listening to an Offspring track during one or two bits of it as far as I was concerned. I was just thinking about when I stand up in front of x thousand people singing just thinking about the buzz I get out of it I 39 m thinking about the buzz I used to get when I was a kid and I used to go to rock festivals you really felt you belonged to something bigger than yourself on that one day. You also felt in some ways that you could change something you could change the world a weeny bit that day 39 cos you 39 re all in that field. And that 39 s what 39 s the song 39 s about hence the chorus 39 Your time will come 39 . You suddenly feel you are a part of everything. 39 39 Bruce Dickinson The lyrics seem to highlight the general apathy of our modern society and our egoistic disinterest in what is happening in the world until something actually happens to us and we get knocked to our feet. Watching the world explode every single night refers probably to those who watch the evening news and who have an overload of grisly images of wars and sufferings and who become gradually de sensitised and de humanised.The symbol of the new rise of the wickerman a figure of paganism might imply that we are slowly going back to ancient evil ways. The ritual was once performed as a fertility rite for the land in former Celtic tribes where a giant wicker man was burned with living beings inside mostly farm animals but also sometimes humans too then the ashes were spread on the fields as fertiliser. Technically the system was good as the ashes would contain a lot of elements beneficial to the crops mostly a fair amount of nitrogen from the animals but there are nowadays many very efficient fertilisers on the market that render this method quite fortunately obsolete. 39 39 Brave New World 39 39 is the twelfth studio album by Iron Maiden released on 30 May 2000 see 2000 in music . It marked the return of longtime lead singer Bruce Dickinson and guitarist Adrian Smith to the band who left in 1990 replaced by Janick Gers. It was also the band 39 s first studio recording with three guitar players as Gers stayed with the band after Smith 39 s return.The album art and title song are references to the novel of the same name written by Aldous Huxley.
