IRON MAIDEN Like You've Never Heard Them Before! - July 20, 2009

Austrian DJ/remixer DJ Schmolli's hilarious mash-up of IRON MAIDEN's "The Trooper" and THE MONKEES' "I'm A Believer" can be heard below.

DJ Schmolli has produced a number of other mash-ups, including "Hollaback Thriller Girl" (Gwen Stefani vs. Michael Jackson), "Jacko Breaks Free On Earth" (Michael Jackson vs. Queen vs. Belinda Carlisle) and "Justice For Billie Jean" (Justice vs. Michael Jackson vs. C&C Music Factory).

"The Trooper", IRON MAIDEN's ninth single and the second from their 1983 album "Piece of Mind", was released on June 20, 1983. The song is about the Battle of Balaclava in 1854 during the Crimean War, and is at least partially based upon Alfred Lord Tennyson's poem "The Charge of the Light Brigade", taking the viewpoint of one of the slain troopers, who, in the cover art, is perceived as a bald Eddie.

Kudos to him for mixing two so very different songs. The tones don't quite match during the solo, but otherwise very well mixed. All fun 'n' games...

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO THINK 'DUDE, WHERE'S MY CAR' AND 'MALL COP' WERE GREAT CINEMATIC TRIUMPHS, I EXPECT THAT YOU THINK THIS IS THE SHIT.
IT'S CRAP.
'MASHING' CLASSIC FAMILIAR SONGS INTO SOMETHING CUTE IS AN INSULT TO THE WRITER(S) OF THE SONGS THAT ARE REVERED BY THEIR RESPECTIVE GENRES. DICKINSON AND HARRIS MUST BE SITTING WITH THEIR HEADS IN THEIR HANDS,.,. AS ALL MAIDEN FANS SHOULD BE,., SAYING "NO. THIS IS WRONG".
YOU LITTLE BORED 'DJ'S' NEED TO STOP.

There is this thing called humor. It's designed for comedy. Comedy can happen in all shapes and sizes (Southpark, a joke with the word "retard" in it, Cubs winning a World Series, or even combining two songs that most probably would not find funny as their respective individual track). It happens. I hope you can let go of the anger Mike and smile with the rest of us whom respect music, but also like a good laugh.

What is the point? I get that it is an attempt at humor, but why not make some original music. Mash-ups are lame.

I love it! Man this puts crazy stuff in my head! I like the Monkees as well, not near as much as Maiden (my room is pretty much a Maiden Shrine), but I have the Monkess greatest best of whatever cd. This is pretty cool. Love to see it turn up as some sort of B-side or something somewhere from Maiden.
