Iron Maiden - Reach Out Lyrics






It's over your head
And you don't seem to understand
One word I say
And you can't live your life
Trying to run away

You're fighting your friends
You're wearing everyone
But it never ends
You're wearing me out

Come on
Reach out (Reach out)
And let someone into your life

Don't get me wrong
You always apologize
It's just your way
Of making a scene
You need to be loved
It's not such a crime

Come on
Reach out (Reach out)
And let someone into your life
Come on
Reach out (Reach out)
And let someone into your life

Over your head
You just don't seem to understand
One word I say
And you can't live your life
You got so much love
It's burning inside

Come on
Reach out (Reach out)
And let someone into your life
Come on
Reach out (Reach out)
And let someone into your life
Reach out (Reach out)
And let someone into your life

Iron Maiden Reach Out Comments
  1. V.... O....

    His voice is so nice too 😍❤️

  2. C.... W....

    Adrian is Maiden's 3rd best singer. after Blaze and Paul.

  3. K.... B....

    Smith should have stuck as a background singer.

  4. K.... B....

    This song is weak.No,just no.

  5. r.... S....

    Very Leppard sound like 👍👍

    r.... S....

    No, it's Iron Maiden

  6. D.... S....

    This song almost sounds like Sammy-era Van Hallen.

  7. K.... B....

    This song remains me of my workmates we use to do a pre employment course for 5weeks while this song was playing

  8. J.... G....

    Iron Hard Rock.
    Adrian humilhou o Blaze

  9. C.... ....

    Fuck, this song makes me miss her .....

  10. M.... M....

    This song si too much american glam, for a british pride like maidens

  11. B.... M....

    “ You’ve got to explore, the sparkle inside “

    Lest we forget how easily these blokes could of sold out and stopped kicking our asses 30 yrs ago !

    B.... M....

    could HAVE* for FUCKS sake...

  12. M.... M....

    Wow, Adrian's voice Is amazing!!!

  13. J.... F....

    great music!!! what a pity that never played this music live. The end of Maiden is getting closer .

    J.... F....

    Hehe, now that's were you are wrong... There is a live version with Adrian and Nicko here on YouTube with some others (not Bruce, Steve, Dave or Janick).

  14. T.... S....

    Adrian Smith Sinistro demais 👊🏻👊🏻☠️☠️

    T.... S....

    Adrian Smith é sem dúvida um dos mais importantes músicos na banda... O Iron perdeu muito quando ele saiu... e ganhou muito quando ele voltou.

  15. A.... T....

    Depois de tanto tempo sem ouvir essa música, me dá até uma emoção agr. Iron Maiden forever

  16. N.... F....

    I discovered this song at early 90´s while I was searching for Iron Maiden stuff from the 80´s. My favorite age.

  17. m.... B....

    Super,*

  18. V.... L....

    Iron Maiden at their best "time"...

  19. j.... r....

    Iron maiden is the best. Up the iron s.

  20. N.... F....

    I'd love to see some kind of anthology of Adrian's solo stuff released. This track would be a natural choice,along with stuff from the A.S.A.P period and the subsequent unreleased "Untouchables" band. A dig into the archives could also produce something from "Urchin" and I bet there's some interesting demos in Adrians personal archive.

  21. G.... R....

    Unpopular Opinion: I like Dickinson as backing vocalist better than as lead vocalist.

  22. N.... F....

    What makes this track even more fantastic is the fact that it's just Adrian and Nicko with Bruce on backing vocals. Listen to "Listen with Nicko" part 8 on the 1990 reissue of this single which was part of the "First 10 years" collection.

  23. J.... W....

    Fucking love this b side song 🤘 up the IRONS awesome Vocals from Adrian

  24. j.... r....

    This is a awesome song.

  25. a.... ....

    Adrian Smith is an excellent pop/aor singer. This coversong is awesome!!!...And the backing vocals of Bruce in the chorus are marvellous as well.

  26. p.... ....

    i was wondering who sang with Dicknson only had the song on a bootleg until i found the 10 first years E.P

  27. g.... c....

    SOLO GUITAR MR. DAVE MURRAY.

  28. I.... B....

    why this songs are not in the album?

  29. P.... ....

    Not so good song... Not surprised Steve denied this song to be in Somewhere in Time.

  30. s.... w....

    ADRIAN.....Reach out to the audiences at the shows......I promise you´ll be gratefully received...

  31. C.... ....

    chills every time

  32. s.... w....

    A precious jewel..........don´t you think ???

  33. A.... ....

    He would have been a better choice than blaze....but....who cares.

    A.... ....

    But Adrian wasn't in the band since 1990 back then.

  34. s.... w....

    A Golden Gem that´s for sure....and it really did earn it´s place on the magical Somewhere in Time album......even if it only was an encore song....

  35. x.... ....

    Adrian sounds like Taylor Hawkins from the Foo Fighters. Love it.

  36. A.... I....

    Adrian smith is great in MaideN as well great in the band UrchiN

  37. A.... I....

    in Canada this came out as a promotion  cassette tape which said on the tape beside the cover art A&A records and tapes

  38. s.... w....

    Spellbinding.......A brilliant, catchy song with the " golden " voice of Adrian Smith.....Downright stunning....

  39. s.... w....

    Please Adrian, why not sing on a more regular basis.....you´ve got a brilliant voice, far to good for only doing back-up vocals.....

  40. S.... G....

    Amo esta canción ❤❤❤❤❤

  41. M.... ....

    Honestly my favourite maiden song

  42. L.... B....

    Steve Harris saw the potential in this song. It is an Adrian Smith song. So Harris used it as a B-side. Like Dickinson and his Bring Your Daughter to the Slaughter song. Harris liked it and used it for Maiden. Smith Murray and Dickinson are more talented than Harris is. Without the other players Harris alone couldn't carry Maiden. Look at his British Lion band. It's atrocious. Bad singer and Dad Rock music.

    L.... B....

    Steve didn't like it & didn't want to participate in the recording of it. Adrian took his place & played a bass here.

  43. d.... ....

    This is the very best Iron Maiden song

  44. s.... w....

    I simply love this song........ADRIAN isn´t it time to grab the mic more, I think a lot of us really would be happy to hear your voice on a more regular basis.....

  45. M.... B....

    Maiden is so versatile when it comes to it.
    Real Musicians and thankfully underestimated by the General Crowd, cuz there are to much Sheeple anyway.
    UP THE IRONS !!!!

  46. A.... L....

    Um som que viaja através do tempo

  47. W.... S....

    This song is pretty unique for Maiden, with some moments making me think about Type O.

  48. a.... ....

    H....rocks!!!!

  49. A.... F....

    Adrian Smith on the vocals!

  50. F.... B....

    sounds like whitesnake.. ;)

  51. m.... ....

    This song is way too good to be a b side

  52. Y.... 9....

    when i just listened to this song my mom grounded me for no reason wtf

  53. Y.... 9....

    11 dislikes ru kidding me

  54. Y.... 9....

    this song is better than wasted yhears

  55. R.... T....

    Adrian's vocals are amazing

  56. S.... ....

    Guitar solo @ 2:04 reminds me of Steve Clark (rip)

  57. R.... G....

    Adrian is amazing!

  58. L.... B....

    Adriandid do solo albums they were good too

  59. C.... M....

    Damn ... I'd forgotten this song existed ... It's awesome .. takes me back to being a kid lol ..

  60. V.... R....

    Me recuerda mucho a la película de volver al futuro

  61. A.... M....

    IN THE SCREEN SAYS 1999..... THE SAME PERIOD OF TIME BRUCE AND ADRIAN RETURNED....

    A.... M....

    Yes you right

    A.... M....

    What a coincidence! Because this actual song here was recorded in 1986. Awesome. That "1999" up there on the cover was like a premonition from the Gods or something!

    A.... M....

    So... Iron maiden will die in 2050?

    A.... M....

    @British Lion The "2050" has no esoteric meaning. It's just a random number.

    A.... M....

    @Imperium Europa ...ok

  62. L.... B....

    up the irons \m/

  63. A.... M....

    Ade sounding a bit like a lower register Sammy Hagar.............and some guy doing backing vocals just to remind him what vocal power sounds like (who could it be?)

    A.... M....

    This back up vocalist..Bruce...Dicken...Dick something. He may have a bright future in music.

  64. A.... F....

    IRON rulessss!!!!!

  65. J.... P....

    Cara o Adrian devia fazer outra canção com o bruce no backing vocal, e cantarem ao vivo ia ser ÉPICO

  66. O.... ....

    Awesome song, though it's not even a decent Maiden song.
    Buuuut, why should artists stick to one style. Back in the 80s this song could have become a chartbreaker.
    Sadly, nowadays most people's taste of music got broken by the charts

    O.... ....

    Maybe because is not an original Maiden song?

    O.... ....

    @Rafael Bracero Still a fantastic tune by the way...

  67. B.... B....

    This makes you wonder what it would've been like if Adrian just took over on vocals after they kicked out Paul

    B.... B....

    I think Maiden's sound would change to fit his voice, and they would sound more hardrockish, just like on this track or like on his A.S.A.P. album

    Awesome song, by the way!

    B.... B....

    If any of you guys never heard it before Adrian's mid 90s band PSYCHO MOTEL is really good too, he just plays guitar on that album. Has more of a groovy rock vibe, hard rock w a Sebastian Bach sounding vocalist.

  68. j.... ....

    yeahhhhh!!!!!!

  69. R.... K....

    Adrian is not a newbie to singing. He sang in Urchin, his first band before Maden. Also has been lead vocals before in other side project bands & of course does backing vocals behind Bruce in many Maiden tunes.

  70. c.... v....

    Adrian's voice is amazing!!!! and Bruce in the chorus sounds are amazing too!!!!

    c.... v....

    clauder vargas really adrian singing this song ? , bruce make chorus , masterpiece

    c.... v....

    Bruce who?

    c.... v....

    @D.B. Cooper's travel agent. EXACTLY.......

  71. V.... ....

    Fuckin A!!

  72. m.... ....

    It sounds like Rush

    m.... ....

    morfrido def leppard

    m.... ....

    Van Halen.

    m.... ....

    Guitar solo @ 2:04 sounds like Steve ‘Steamin’ Clark (rip)

  73. A.... M....

    A couple of months ago, I saw a picture of two of Adrian's daughters - and they are really gorgeous! They don't look like him, but I have to say this guy has marvelous genes...I'd like to see a picture of his whole family; maybe he's already a grandpa - a hot grandpa indeed!!!

  74. D.... ....

    This is beautiful. I love how Bruce comes in on backup in the chorus repose.

  75. E.... H....

    This is not reach out, this is tears of a clown.

    E.... H....

    +E. Helenelle You are joking, right?

    E.... H....

    +E. Helenelle are you kidding?

    E.... H....

    +E. Helenelle
    You are right ! 808
    This is why Clowns cry and why Rudolf has a Red nose.
    This is why the King of Hearts is the suicide King.
    This is why the King of Spades is the Joker
    This is why a spade is a stemmed heart
    It's a bloody shovel

  76. R.... C....

    This song should have been put into somewhere in time instead of being reduced to being a b-side of a single

    R.... C....

    Dave Silva can’t agree more sounds like ending credits

    R.... C....

    i'm sorry but if they'd put this song on somewhere in time the entire album would've been ruined lol. it doesn't fit the aesthetic of the album at all and it doesn't sound like iron maiden rhythm-wise. this is more like a dokken song or early bryan adams song. not as a song that belongs on a masterwork as somewhere in time. it's great as a b-side because it's an experimental song. this song is kinda like judas priest's turbo album, that was where they turned themselves into a more hair metal-ish situation. which is kinda what this song is as well only thank god they didn't make an album out of it. because it would lose the worth it has right now and won't be considered as special as it does now.

    R.... C....

    depression inc. it still contains a similar tone tho, which fits the futuristic context of the album

    R.... C....

    Maiden were too focussed as a band to put something like this on their album regardless of how good it sounds.

    R.... C....

    They didn't write it so it never had a chance.

  77. A.... V....

    Am I the only one who thinks that Adrian should do more vocally? He's pretty good.

    A.... V....

    Have a listen to Adrian Smith Project then, that should keep you happy :P

    A.... V....

    Back in Paul days ...

    A.... V....

    @Aparecida Mendes I'd love that.

    A.... V....

    Yes, Adrian is definitely a capable singer. He should do at least one or two songs per album. But Bruce still brings something to most Maiden songs that just can't be done by anyone else.

    A.... V....

    @Golub Damiroff I reckon you may have a point when Paul was the singer.

  78. E.... M....

    Adrian Smith has an exceptional voice

  79. E.... D....

    Adrian Smith on vochals =........ a very beautifol song! That song is from Colwell, Unthocables !
    Adrian!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  80. A.... S....

    Best Maiden song!

  81. c.... ....

    wasted years, reach out, hooks in you, the prisioner, can i play with madness, 2 minutes, ................God, creatively speaking this guy is a MONSTER

    c.... ....

    reach out is not written by any iron maiden member

  82. T.... A....

    This song is awsome

  83. A.... ....

    Sounds kind of fruity to be an iron maiden song, but it's still damn good.

    A.... ....

    Fruity!!!! Lol... but true 😁

  84. T.... M....

    Wow, great song !

  85. S.... M....

    One of the best B-sides of Iron Maiden

    S.... M....

    the fucking BEST XD

    S.... M....

    Burning Ambition is a great b-side too.

  86. q.... ....

    Adrian yeah 

  87. A.... M....

    1:51 nice :)

  88. D.... ....

    Adrian <3

  89. g.... ....

    Awesome song

  90. M.... Z....

    Adrian made an album (ASAP - Silver and Gold) where he sang every song. It's quite different from Iron Maiden, but still good.

  91. A.... M....

    Oh Adrian Smith... Great guitar player, writes songs and sings so well!!!! He should sing more tracks in Maiden's albuns; it's such a waste of a real good and beautiful voice... And I say that he's very polite, discreet, gorgeous and sexy too!!!!!!!!!!!! In my opinion Adrian, Dave and Steve are the hotest guys of the band.

  92. T.... ....

    one of my favorite Maiden Song.. so Great!!

  93. G.... ....

    holy shit!! i didn't know this song... it's fantastic!! is adrian singing?

  94. a.... ....

    So great!
