Coming soon only on Maidenfans – the ultimate showdown between the greatest rock and metal music videos ever made!
Nominations are now welcome. I haven’t settled on an exact number of videos yet but I plan to keep it under 60 and divide videos into small groups, so voters aren’t faced with spending hours staring at a screen in order to vote in any given round.
I’d suggest 3-5 nominations max each. If you’re desperate to have certain videos included, list them in order of favourite to least favourite. I will scythe them down mercilessly if I get a huge number of nominations. Conversely, if only a handful of people make nominations, I’ll open it up for more. Just post the name of the artist/band and song you wish to nominate - if I can’t find the video available to view for free online I’ll get back to you.
I plan to allow no more than three videos per band/artist, although solo projects may be allowed in addition to a band’s allocation of three.
Oh, and no Maiden videos, please. An elite team of experts
has been consulted and three have already been chosen.
Here’s the deal:
· Rock or metal song videos only. I may allow some songs hovering on the edge of these genres if the video is of exceptional merit.
· ‘Official’ music videos only, no fan-made videos
· No 100% ‘live’ music videos (ie complete footage of a song performed at a concert, festival or TV appearance)
· No videos made to promote a movie - any movie content in the video should be to further the purpose of or enhance the music. So GNR’s ‘You Could Be Mine’ is a no, and Queen’s ‘Radio Ga Ga’ is a yes.
Post away!

Choose wisely... I have five big, well-known ones to throw in if nobody else gets there first.
