Alternate version of Maiden's "The Wicker Man"?

[Number Of The Priest]

Youtube.com is addicting. I came across this video:

http://youtube.com/w/Iron-Maiden-and...=iron%20maiden

Right after Bruce talks about how Iron Maiden has been around 20+ years, the chorus of "The Wicker Man" comes on, but it's a different version with extra backing vocals. Does anyone know anything about this alternate version and where I can download it?

Thanks. [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

That was the original version... I actually prefer it to the one on the album. The overdubbed vocal lines are awesome!! I heard that version first on the radio when it came out, and I got the promo video off ebay a few years ago, too. There might be some promo cds out there, too.

Yeah that was like a designated radio version. I think it was the first single off the album and I remember thinking it was better too.

Nice new sig, Toejam. I've heard a more cruel version of that joke... What has nine arms and sucks? Def Leppard. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Oooof! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Hippietim probably knows that one already. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I've still been unable to find it. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Hmm, I've gotta dig that one up. I love that song! It's our drinking song. Whenever it comes on and there's an alchoholic beverage around, my roommate and I have to drink.
