Usually, singers are quite concerned about their voices and follow strict routines to keep their vocal cords in shape. However, Iron Maiden vocalist Bruce Dickinson said in an interview with AMFM Magazine that he doesn’t do anything particularly special, he just respects his body. Bruce Dickinson says he doesn’t do anything special to keep his voice in shape "Nothing, honestly, nothing special other than kind of common sense, really. Don't go to football matches and yell and scream yourself stupid the day before and then expect to be able to sing. You have to have a little bit of living like a monk, because the voices, they need sleep, rest, sleep. And they like that. Be nice to your voice. Rest. Actually, be nice to your body. If you respect your body, the voice is just a projection of that, really." "And yes, there's a few bits and bobs. And I'm lucky in that I've always given my puny little vocal cords a chance by having lungs and diaphragms and stuff like that, that make a loud enough… I have enough wind. I'm an old windbag, so I generate enough wind to support my voice. But, yeah, effectively, I try and sing with as much technique as I need to keep my voice on the rails when I'm touring," Bruce Dickinson said (Transcribed by Blabbermouth).
