Hopefully, this cover will draw the attention of new young audiences to one of the most iconic songs (and album) the genre has ever offered.

Probably my least favorite cover made by them. Tobias' voice doesn't really work well against Di'Anno's style imo and the rest is basically a calc. The Genesis one was more interesting.

I wish they would have included the Pet Shop Boys one that made it into Prequelle, now that was a good cover.

agree his voice doesn't really fit this, but still cool they have done it. "If you have ghost" still their best cover tho

Their covers include some of their best material but this one's a bit weak

Their covers usually reinterpret the original material, and this doesn't really add anything apart from shiny modern production values

Would be cooler if this was from the musical. Lame

Hope this directs the apparent Tiktok fanbase to some good music rather than the arena rock schlock TF has been pumping out lately.

Damn, this is pretty terrible though. Only the crappy "metal" mass publications can find a way to shill this. TF drove the bicycle right off a cliff.

Credit to Tobias's ability to find really great studio musicians because the instrumentation is tighter than dick skin.

Enjoyable cover, the Genesis cover was better but if this serves as a gateway for more kids to get into Maiden and Metal than it’sa good thing.

Awesome cover. This is one of my favorite Maiden tracks. The first time I saw them live, before I really listened to them, I was blown away by this song and it really got me interested in them.
