Bruce Dickinson announced in 2014 that he suffered cancer. As he explainedwas detected with a tumor on the tongue and another in the right lymph node, so he had to undergo intense treatment. Thus, after overcoming radiotherapy and chemotherapy, he finally managed to recover in 2015.
Now, ten years later, The Iron Maiden interpreter has confessed that he came to look for a replacement for his position. The leader of the famous group has gone to the Rich Roll podcast to analyze his professional life and the evolution of the band. For this reason, he has not hesitated to confess how he experienced some of his hardest moments.
“We’re outsiders in the music industry in a lot of ways. There are groups, and groups, and groups, and they’re just groups. You may like them or not, they may be successful or not. But Maiden is something more than that“Dickinson assured, making it clear that there is still a very good relationship between all the members of the band.
Iron Maiden remains present in the music industry regardless of the years that pass, and that, as he has highlighted, has been thanks to precisely this. “It’s a strange chemistry, because it’s manufactured. “I would never have met Steve Harris and Dave Murray in the normal course of my life, ever, if they hadn’t said, ‘Hey, we want a singer for Iron Maiden,'” he said.
“And now, what we have in common is Iron Maiden, is that music. And of course, we all got to know each other. And one of the reasons why I think The band has survived is because over the years we have grown in each other as people, but at the same time music is always sacrosanct,” he assured. That is why, in favor of its essence, he did not hesitate to think about who could replace him.
“When I had throat cancer, the last thing I thought about was whether I would sing again. The first thing that crossed my mind was whether I would get out of this and still be alive. And the last thing on my mind was, will I ever sing again? And I thought: ‘Well, we’ll get to that stage when it’s over and we start trying to sing,’ he highlighted very clearly.
“And I was pretty prepared to accept that maybe I wouldn’t be able to sing with Iron Maiden again. I might be able to sing, I might be able to vocalize, I might be able to sing in a different way, but if I couldn’t sing the way I have to sing with Iron Maiden, I would help them find a great replacement. Because music is sacrosanct,” he concluded.
