[QUOTE=-The Frank]Rainmaker is probably the only good maiden video, besides man on the edge.
I really cant stand watching their videos, they're just sooooo cheesy. Bruce really cant act. He just starts acting really weird in videos.
I was at a friends house the other day and i should my friend the acoustic version of tears of the dragon, and he really enjoyed it. So (without knowing) i went to bruces site and clicked on the video for abduction, bad move. Bruce ran like a freaking moron in that video. He is a terrible actor. I had to eventually close the video becasue it was just soo embarrsing.

Maiden should just stick to live footage.[/QUOTE]
:lol: i love the videos, mainly because of the terrible acting and cheesiness:p

The Wicker Man video is my favourite. Dunno why, I just like it.

The Wickerman video was actually quite good. Rainmaker one was alright, it seemed a bit artsy fartsy for me :p

[quote]Live videos aside, I've never felt Iron Maiden's videos were up to the quality of their music.

RHCP have some good videos (Otherside, Dani California). The MCR video for I'm Not Ok is good too, but Iron Maiden's really could be better. There's so much visual imagery in a lot of them, that could look really good in the video and somehow it's missed, or the video doesn't match the feel of the song. I don't know. Their best video might have to be OOTSP for me.[/quote]

They did a video for Out of the Silent Planet? *Goes Youtubing.*

I do agree with you though, most of Maidens videos were really average. I do like Man On Edge, The Wicker Man, and Rainmaker, though. Still, its not like any of them are Sledgehammer or Epic quality (I have yet to see a video that beats those two.)

Edit: Not cool, they edited out the intro for the video of OOTSP! Thats my favorite part.

that one hurts my eyes.

I didn't like that, but they still keep the outro. I guess they just needed a punchier start to it.

They said they wanted to release The Fallen Angel, but didn't want people throwing themselves out of windows, etc...

I hate it when they remove parts from songs, they did it in TAATG too:angry:

The Holy Smoke video made me cry.

[QUOTE=rik]The Holy Smoke video made me cry.[/QUOTE]
:lol: i love the part where Steve's playing bass on the back of a tractor.

The OOTSP video, isn't actually them playing it, it's just footage mashed together from the BNW tour :mad:

Holy smoke video is great.

Love the bit where Dave is soloing in a river.

That's ones funny for sure. I need to whip out Visions of the Beast again for a laugh.

Aces High and The Wickerman are my favorite videos, even if Wickerman is still cheesy.

<3 Winston Churchill intro to that song

Holy smoke's video is funny as hell.

[QUOTE=crag]I hate it when they remove parts from songs, they did it in TAATG too:angry:[/QUOTE]

Thats becasue TAATG was way too f[size="1"]u[/size]cking long =/. The video for that made me cringe aswell.

Everone else is so of over the top, and excited then it cuts to dave just standing in the river, it cracked me up.

I wonder if that was a reference to the fact that Dave would really look at home at Sidmouth Folk Festival...

[QUOTE=PAJJ]Everone else is so of over the top, and excited then it cuts to dave just standing in the river, it cracked me up.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, the part with Steve in a pool playing a tiny plastic guitar was great, too. Come to think of it Holly Smoke is actually one of my least favorite Maiden tunes (the solos are cool, though.) I guess Maiden's just not cut out for writing funny stuff.

i'm having a stupid moment, TAATG is which song?

i haven't really seen many maiden vids.

It's The Angel and the Gambler.

that's the one. i like the song, but i've never seen the video.

ITT: discuss how awesome Blood on the World's Hands is. my favourite maiden song of the moment :)

I love the song, although the intro is rather annoying.

i love the bass intro. bass ftw :p

[QUOTE=Josh]i love the bass intro. bass ftw :p[/QUOTE]
haha, there'd be nothing wrong with it if it didn't repeat itself over and over and over again.

there's nothing wrong with that :p



:( it's one of my favourite intros.

Yeah, same here. Steve owns on it.

the live version on Best of the B-Sides is awesome.

[QUOTE=Josh]the live version on Best of the B-Sides is awesome.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, definitly.

Edit: My god, I'm listening to As Live As It Gets now, its amazing. Blaze has such an awsome voice.

I can play the intro :cool:

The Sheriff of Huddersfield, Black Bart Blues, More Tea Vicar? and Pass the Jam disagree with you :mad:

don't forget Nodding Donkey Blues:p

Nickos version of The Age Of Innocence is the funniest song by maiden, and is quality aswell :).

Oh yeah and them too.

"You can dance around his pole in may, that's a may pole"

Nicko is a funny dude.

[QUOTE]Sanctuary Visual Entertainment are proud to announce the UK triple disc DVD release of Bruce Dickinson ‘Anthology’ on. 19th June 2006. This is the definitive Dickinson package, and includes nearly/over six hours of videos and live performances, and previously unreleased and archive material.

Bruce Dickinson is still the proverbial human whirlwind of activity, having made his mark both as the frontman of the legendary Iron Maiden and as a longstanding solo artist, with a catalogue that includes six studio albums of his own plus several concert releases. In addition to his musical talents, Bruce is also well known as a BBC Radio deejay, TV broadcaster, Airline Pilot, sword-fencing expert, novelist, family man and voice of modern music.

Bruce says: “It’s fantastic to share all of this collection with my fans. These DVDs contain rare material that people either won’t know exists or have been unable to buy. The Samson video has changed hands for absurd amounts of money, and although we spent loads of time and had and lots and lots of fun making the promos, and because MTV didn’t show them many of won’t have been seen. It was high time they were all available together in one package.”


DVD disc 1 is a live performance extravaganza boasting 30 show-stopping tracks, recorded during the 90’s as Bruce forged ahead with his solo career. Dive Dive Live was recorded at the Town and Country Club, Los Angeles on the Tattooed Millionaire Tour, August 14th 1990. This was Bruce’s first outing as a solo artist with a new band made up of Janick Gers (Guitar), Andy Carr (Bass) and Dickie Fliszar (Drums).

The second live-in-concert performance offered up on Disc 1 was filmed over two sweaty back-to-back dates during the Skunkworks Tour in Pamplona and Gerona, Spain on May 31st and June 1st 1996. Bruce was fronting a new young band, with a new name, and was joined on stage by Alex Dickson (Guitars), Chris Dale (Bass) and a certain infamous Italian drummer, Alessandro Elena. Originally created for a four track video EP release in Japan, this is the hour long Skunkworks concert in full, for the very first time.

DVD Disc 2 keeps the live-in-concert experience alive with rare footage of Bruce performing in Sao Paulo, 1999 during the Chemical Wedding World Tour. Almost two hours in length, ‘Scream For Me Brazil’ represents Bruce’s last outing as a true solo artist before rejoining the ranks of Maiden shortly afterwards. No official film recording was permitted although this film taken from the crowd screen feeds features highlights of the show which later become a live album of the same name. With a new heavier line-up made up of long time song writing partner Roy Z (Guitar), old Maiden partner Adrian Smith and rhythm section of Dave Ingraham (Drums) and Eddie Casillas (Bass), this ‘bootleg’ documents Bruce at his most intense.

DVD Disc 3 Is an extensive collection of promotional videos made during Bruce’s solo career. From his days at EMI through to his own self produced videos of recent times, each video is accompanied by a short introduction by Bruce himself, discussing the ideas, concepts and eventual filming behind each of the videos. Each intro provides an interesting insight into Bruce’s solo career as it progressed and the highlights and pitfalls of producing your own promotional videos.

Alongside the 14 promotional videos, Disc 3 also includes over an hours worth of extras.
The Tyranny Of Souls interview was originally filmed as a general interview for press purposes. This is a track by track breakdown of the concept behind the songs on the Tyranny Of Souls album, providing more of an in-depth look at the writing methods that Bruce has formed with long time wiring partner Roy Z.

Samson - Biceps Of Steel
Bruce made his video debut fronting Samson in this rather curious adaptation of the story of Samson and Delilah, filmed at the Rainbow Theatre, London. Filmed and directed by Julien Temple who perhaps was more famous for the Sex Pistols movie - ‘The Great Rock ‘n’ Roll Swindle’, this 15 minute featurette was distributed through-out cinemas as a support feature to Hazel O’ Connors ‘Breaking Glass’ in 1980.
