Dickinson was more Dungeons & Dragons. Lemmy was the real deal. Sure, Dickinson's singing abilities deserve respect, but Lemmy crushes him in the raw energy and shiver-sending aggression department. And where a lot of Motorhead songs actually have heart and soul (and spontaneity), a lot of Iron Maiden numbers sound silly next to them (although not as bad as a lot of Slayer material). Still, you can't go wrong with Maiden's "Live After Death."

Both are Metal Icons. Dickinson definitely has the range Lemmy has the classic Metal voice.
If I had too choose I guess it would be Bruce.

Dickinson FTW
Don't get me wrong, Lemmy is god, but Bruce has such an amazing vocal range, he could have been an opera singer had he chosen.

Holy crap- LEMMY!!!!!!!!
\m/ \m/ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a writer. What integrity as a musician. What a sense of humor! A true original, nobody even compares to his history and influence. Dickenson is just another decent singer in a decent band- but Maiden just ain't that interesting.

Our you serious? Are you talking about that raspy voice Lemmy from Motorhead. That guy couldn't sing his way out of a paper bag. He probably would choke to death, if you put a paper bag over his mouth. Bruce Dickinson is a better singer by a landslide.
