Re: Daily Song: No More Lies Repetitive? Perhaps. A problem? No. This song is an amazing song and justifies an easy 9. Perhaps the second best track on the album.
Re: Daily Song: No More Lies Foro that was a very cool like story you wrote, thanks. For some reason I visualized the band as thunderbird puppets while reading it...Team America-style.
Re: Daily Song: No More Lies I like the intro and consider this being the top 3 tracks of Dance of Death. As well as one of the best song from 2000-onwards 9/10
Re: Daily Song: No More Lies Nice story Foro, made me laugh. I like this song alot, but i don't know why I only could give it an eight.
Re: Daily Song: No More Lies One of my favourite post-reunion songs; a nice intro and build-up, and a powerful chorus (on which note I'd echo the sentiments of "repetitive, so what?"). 9/10
9/10... Very powerful tune... I love the lyrics, and Bruce's vocal is over the top. All three solos kick me in the ass... one of the album's favorites for me...
Lyrics are interesting, love the interpretations put in this thread, but lord help me I can't get around the grating, repetitive chorus. If you could excise that, it would be an 8 in my book. But it's a 4 to me now - IMO the worst song on DOD. Kind of hurts, because I see how passionate other people are about it!
I think this is one of the more under-rated 2000s songs. Great solos, the way Bruce sings "No more lies" is like a punch in the gut. I think it's a good representation of Maiden, has a lots of common elements from other songs. 7
I do like everything about this song, except for one thin (which Foro has pointed out): It is very predictable. The buildup is more or less a copy of The Clansman, the chord progression has been used to death. But it still works, and the lyrics and solos are great. 8/10. Funfact: When they played this song in Bergen last year, the clouds burst open - after clear skies and sun all afternoon. Bergen is the city in Norway which gets the most rain over the course of a year, so when the rain came back it seemed very fitting that it did so during No More Lies
7- This song is much better live because Bruce's mixes up the delivery on the drab chorus. OK melodies if not too Maiden standard.
