Trooper
I know this thread may anger some people, but I would really like to know what is so great about the SIT album. Apparently it's me because everytime Maiden starts a tour the forum explodes with posters upset about them not doing any or the same songs as before from this album. I bought SIT when it first came out and I got to tell you compared to the back to back homers of POM and PS ( not to mention LAD) I was kinda underwelmed. IMO the album breaks down like this:
Great Songs:
Wasted Years
Stranger in a Strangeland
Heaven Can Wait
Lonliness of the Long Distance Runner
Average Songs:
Caught Somewhere In Time
Sea Of Madness
Below Average:
Alexander the Great
Total Crap:
Deja Vu
Now I'm sure I'm gonna get killed for rating ATG as below average. While I love the music, I'm sorry but the lyrics read and sound like a boring history lecture and I've sat through enough of them. Let me state for the record that the SIT tour in 86 was my first Maiden concert and I loved it. But I've never been crazy about this album and was just wanting some opinions from those who are.
