Iron Maiden - Alexander The Great

Alexander the Great a.k.a Alexander the Macedonian from MACEDONIA! :)

Solo Maiden hace estas obras maestras.. terminar el album con esta cancion! Si Alejandro Magno estuviera vivo y escuchara esto... creo que se arrodilla ante la banda.. y pediria que sea su himno de entrada en cada batalla..

Ελπίζουμε το Ελληνο Σκοπιανικό να ληθεί για να παιχτεί αυτό το song live πριν διαλυθούν σαν συγκρότημα έστω και μια φορά. We all Hope The Greek-Skopje Solved fast so they will play that song live before they stop playing for ever. Its the only song they never played on live

I had to study Alexander the great for a test oday thanks Iron Maiden

ΜΑΚΕΔΟΝΙΑ ΓΗ ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΗ 🇬🇷

There can never be enough Iron Maiden songs.

Παιδιά έχω ένα πρόβλημα. Θέλω να πάω διακοπές αλλά δεν μπορώ να διαλέξω είμαι ανάμεσα σε 4 προορισμούς: Μακεδονία και Κύπρο

was looking for information about Alexander The Great, found this... best mistake i made today! hahahaha

2019 year Alexander will be war crime person like a lot of Christian Orthodox people (Serbian, Russian, Macedonian, Greek,,,) !

I am from greece and i love this song

Terima kasih i love iron maiden..

Grande musica do Iron Maiden ...

Now this is how you make history class epic

I will continue waiting for the day that iron maiden plays this impressive and energetic song, that day will remain for the memory

You know you're the best singer of all time when the last thing you sing in a song is "He died of frever in Babylon" and you make it sound like the most epic shit ever.

I Am ready to do the school test

Who's better? Vocal or guitars?

Aleksandar the great was macedonians you dumb retarded gayreeks ...he slaughtered your dumb asses

Nord to the East In a part of ANCIENT GREECE!

🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷

Ask for thy self Minerva Michael a balanced kingdom, why because envy and hate crumbles around them. As always. I will have no mercy for it.

13 years before Sabaton existed Maiden was including history in their songs.Legends forever.

Amazing song but I think Alexander the Great contributed to it’s immortality! 😅

Dickinson is a sick singer. This guy is amazing.

Dont steal,dont envy and dont rewrite greek history and pride new world order

Βρωμοσκοπιανοι ανοιξτε τ αυτια σας και ακουστε καλα. Ουδεμια σχεση εχει το κρατιδιο σας με Μακεδονια και Μεγα Αλεξανδρο. Τοσα χρονια τωρα σας το λεμε με το καλο αλλα δεν παιρνετε χαμπαρι οποτε ισως πρεπει να σας το πουμε με το αγριο μπας και την παρετε χαμπαρι. Με την ιστορια ενος λαου και μαλιστα των Ελληνων δεν παιζει κανεις γιατι οταν εμεις ειχαμε πολιτισμο εσεις ζουσατε ακομα σε δεντρα και σπηλιες. Και προς αποφυγη παρεξηγησεων δεν ειμαι Χρυσαυγιτης. Ειμαι απλα Ελληνας.

Stand-up, this is hymn!

in 1987, discovered Iron Maiden, bought Somewhere in Time and opened the tape cassette and unfold the album cover. I learned history by reading lyrics. Such a wonderful memory.

Alexander the scopianist ...please change the title

This song reminds me of Rime of the Ancient Mariner.

Still mourning Alexander and the burn of the Great Library. =/

imagine a king who fought his own battles

The orange buffoon wouldn't have a chance

Bruce Dickinson can turn history to a piece of masterpiece. I should mention this legend to as Righteous Rockstar🤘🤘🤘

The Greatest Warior for All Times !ALEXANDER THE GREAT

MACEDONIA is Greece there is no question about that 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷1. They were talking GREEK.2. They were taking part in Olympic games that only Greeks could and not other nationality.3. Alexander started the dynasty to take revenge for what the persians did to Greece (in Greco-Persian wars with Greece be the winner).4. They were having Greek names.5. They where using Greek architecture.6. They had Greek culture.7. Alexander was taught by Aristotle (Greek philosopher).8. They believed in the ancient Greek gods.9. His army when he started his empire was full of Greeks and not barbarians. Athenians,thracians,ageans people,thessalians and many more people from the ancient Greek city states.10. Alexander said: εύχρηστο τον Θεό που γεννήθηκα ελλην.That means: I thanks the God because I am Greek11. Slavs came in Balkans after 1000 years from Alexanders death.12. Philips tomb is in Greece,Pella the capital of the ancient macedonia is in Greece and the 97% of ancient citys,tombs,sculptures are in greece.Also in every source like wikipedia, ancient writers,books and many other sources it's says clearly that he was GREEK...The period called ancient Greece or Hellenistic period what else do you want to know. THEY WERE GREEKS if you can't understand you may have problem with your brain or you are slav.

When I was 9 I knew literally everything about Alexander

Jeff is dead sure

Metal time everybody 🤘

Losagno h

Great song is a good

Gracias Iron Maiden.

he paved the way for christianty? makes no sense, when the ancient cultures fell and christian empires rise the technology and everything went very bad and i dont think the ancient greeks wanted such a state religion with bad relations to science!

dont forget bible written in greek so maybe they want,after that byzantium comes for east roman empire for{greeks}and again christianity and democracy are very similar in many things,all the technology from ancient greece past to other nations mostly from byzantium ,i know many greeks disagree im greek also,but is the truth,sr for my english, is just my opinion,i have dig into that era

@vre gatakia ok thx for your opinion i will talk to other greeks at the work, greets from a atheist kurd ;)

Ну вот и заебись, а то я уже подумал что и Сралин был ваш. Вам повезло, "братья македонцы", что Сталин вашим то не был..... Иначе из вас бы мало кого оставило НКВД. Возрадуйтесь))

The guitar solos are absolutely perfect.

Best solo ever.

little info. persia is modern iran,,,,,,,,,,,

You 1.3k Spastics should print this song out and shove it up your arse!

RESPECΤ

This song contains perhaps the best Easter eggs ever written in all of modern popular music. There's a lengthy dual guitar solo in the middle of the song, mostly in mostly traditional rock scales. At 6:45, Dave takes lead again and drops into Phrygian mode (the exotic, eastern sounding scale) to end the solo and transition back into the last verse. The lyrics resume with, "A Phrygian King had bound a chariot yoke." I wonder if it was accidental or intentional. Love this song either way!

This is probably the most educational song ever made in the history of mankind. Just awesome from both a musical and historical perspective

time for a balkan war...

pease GOd I REALLY PAINts now.

Can you get a better history lesson then this :)

This song is the LAW.

30 years listen to maiden never gets old this is metal ladies and gentlemen

What a badass band y'all can I get a Hell Yeahhhh\m/😎😈👀

If Alexander only had guns,he would've exterminated Greeks.

Jesus,heal this poor Gayreek's fucked up brain!

Didnt get my gun haha

not greek HE WAS MACEDONIAN KING

@Big Boss fynd me one person with name FILIP in greece and why greecs don't have a song or folklore for MACEDONIA???

@Big Boss greece and MACEDONIA is two different NATIONS, SO I'M MACEDONIAN and you'r NOT, get over that, P.S. my last answer is that

@Emil Burnaz Hahahaha... are you kidding me ???Philip and Alexander are two of the most common names in Greece. These Words/Names are Greek... with an Etymology and a Meaning only in Greek language.How much ingorant you are... Jesus Chirst !!! Hahaha...Also... we have Hymn about Macedonia:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_fvAoLg-0sAnd something last...Macedonia was an Ancient Greek Kingdom and now is a Geographical Region in Northern Greece. End Of Story !!!!All the rest are Bullshit and FYROMian Propaganda !!!!I asked you if you have, at least, one connection with the Ancient Macedonians, but, of course, you didn't answer.You live in the territory of the Ancient Paeonia.-- I live in the territory of the Ancient Macedonia.You speak and write a Slavic-Bulgarian Language.-- I speak and write the same Greek Language with Alexander the Great and the Ancient Macedonians.So, why you think that you are more ''Macedonian'' than me ?P.S. It was (maybe) your last comment, because, you have not arguments.

Slav said who didn't even existed when we the Macedonians conquering the world.
