Grand Funk's cover of The Loco Motion is top notch.

it actually says polls closed yesterday, at 5:09 pm

Wow, Bruce was rude to me. I'm gonna tear off my Maiden tee I paid $40 for, and have my $200 tattoo removed, and give away all my Maiden gear I've spent my hard earned money on for literally years. That'll show him!

Even though the polls are closed, I'm still gonna put my two cents worth in. Iron Maiden. It's gritty, raw and has an urgency that NPFTD lacks.

Powerslave. It took me a looong time to warm up to Somewhere In Time. It was change in direction I had a hard time accepting. Powerslave, on the other hand, engulfed me the first time I heard it.

Piece Of Mind, for sure. It never leaves my top 5

Well, that was the most surreal 15 minutes of my day.

I didn't know about this site when Book Of Souls was released, so I never saw this thread before today. One of those 'bump' deals, I reckon. Anyhow, after much gnashing of teeth, it came down to three. Death or Glory won out over The Red And The Black and The Great Unknown, solely on the basis...
