IRON MAIDEN - Flight 666 (2009)

Okey, aku baru lepas tonton dokumentari tour Iron Maiden ni untuk kali yg ke......hemmm......kali yg ke.........hhmmmppp.....ntah? aku pon dah lupe! Dah byk kali sgt dah aku tonton video ni!.....[masih lagi teruja setiap kali tgk!]...

Sape x kenal Iron Maiden sila angkat tangan!........... Walaupon xpenah dgr lagu diorg, ataupon xpenah tgk wajah2 line up band ni at least korg penah jugak dgr perkataan "IRON MAIDEN" kan? ataupon pernah terserempak ngan org2 yg pkai baju ade gambar/logo IRON MAIDEN kan?

Ape yg paling menariknye, adalah band Iron Maiden tu sendiri! Maksud aku sini, try bgtau aku band mane yg "sezaman" ngan Iron Maiden yg betul2 perjuangkan muzik mereka sendiri selagi hayat dikandung badan? Tolak ke tepi pasal glamour? Kekayaan? Perempuan? Kontroversi? Gossip? Dadah? Trendy?.....ade ke?....


Tapi, Iron Maiden yg telah menjadi idola kepada beratus-ratus [maybe beribu?] band metal seluruh dunia, masih lagi gagah hingga ke ari ni...........masih lagi aktif menghasilkan album yg laris terjual berjuta2 unit seluruh dunia.... masih lagi kekal ngan line up terkenal mereka dan masih lagi aktif berkonsert ke seluruh dunia dan yg paling best, masih lagi kekal bersemangat dan bertenaga dia atas stage walaupon sorg2 line up diorg tu da bleh panggil "atuk" dah.......[haaa...kalu nk tau, muzik rock/heavy metal la yg bleh melambatkan proses penuaan kita..hehehe]

Bruce Dickinson [vokalis] merupakan pilot pesawat Boeng 757 [Ed Force One] mereka sendiri!

Melalui video ni baru aku tau Iron Maiden adalah satu2nya band rock/heavy metal antarabangsa yg pernah wat konsert di India! Paling xleh ingat time tgk untiey-untiey kat sane dok sapu karpet dlm stadium [lokasi konsert Iron Maiden] pakai penyapu lidi time Iron Maiden dok wat soundcheck!!...Dah la stage dibina drpd buluh jek!....bbuahahaha....!!! Tapi sape sangka rupa2nye fan Iron Maiden mmg cukup ramai kat sane....Full stadium....hehe.....

 Aku cukup2 kagum ngan band Iron Maiden ni.....Walaupon nama mereka dah dikenali seluruh dunia tapi mereka masih lagi low-profile.....Diorg ni bukan jenis berlagak.....

Aku petik kata2 jujur guitarist Iron Maiden iaitu Janick Gers dari video ni......

"We've done it our way. We do it without radio, without any media. We haven't become celebrities. We still go and have a drink in the pub with our mates. Nobody has to bow down to us. We're just musicians. We play music, we enjoy it, and if you like our music, God bless you.......And if you don't like it, you know what?......God bless you too......"

Yeah, aku bangga sebab membesar dgn mendengar lagu2 drpd Iron Maiden!!!......Dan, aku xkan berhenti drpd menjadi salah seorg drpd jutaan Iron Maiden fan di seluruh pelusuk dunia sehingga ke akhir zaman..... 

UP THE IRONS !!!




Sebuah lagu Iron Maiden yg menjadi 'poojaan hatiku'.....

Afraid To Shoot Strangers

Lying awake at night I wipe the sweat from my brow
But it's not the fear 'cause I'd rather go now

Trying to visualize the horrors that will lay ahead
The desert sand mound a burial ground

When it comes to the time
Are we partners in crime?
When it comes to the time
We'll be ready to die

God let us go now and finish what's to be done
Thy Kingdom Come
Thy shall be done...on Earth

Trying to justify to ourselves the reasons to go
Should we live and let live?
Forget or forgive

But how can we let them go on this way?
The reign of terror, corruption must end
And we know deep down there's no other way
No trust, no reasoning, no more to say

Afraid to shoot strangers
Afraid to shoot strangers
