OK, just read for yourselves. Here are a coupe of quotes :
What do you think about Maiden lots of your songs again with Bruce singing on them? On the Early Days DVD you say that Bruce is the better singer?
You must remember that interviews and filming usually end up highly edited, and I actually said (on various occasions) that Bruce is a better singer for Maiden as they became in their later years. I think Bruce's high operatic and theatrical type voice is better suited to Maiden's later material, but I honestly think he sounds like a ****ing fairy when he is trying to fill my shoes on songs from the first 2 albums. My voice is aggressive and violent (kind of like me in a way) and it sounds like someone dragged me up from a low class background and I was used to having a regular ****ing good kicking (in the b******s) every now and then.
On the other hand Bruce's voice is sang in The Queen's English. very politely and with all the letters pronounced properly, and you can imagine him practising his sword fencing whilst practising his vocal exercises.
He sound like a very nice public school boy (which he was) who used to sing in the local church choir after school and was an instant hit with all the old grannies. Meanwhile, I was getting my d*** sucked by all the fanny in the park being the ****ing animal that I have always been. Bruce is silver but I am gold, as simple as that really.
…did you ever listen to the Blaze era Maiden?
Paul: I try to not listen to shit.
And heres a link to the full interview :
