I missed Rush when they played last time in LA (ironically enough I was on a fishing trip in Canada then). After Neil Peart died I thought I blew it and they were gone forever. My girlfriend and I aren't gonna make that mistake again now that we've been given another chance (neither of us have...

Not sure if this counts since it wasn't the whole band performing it, but I did catch Bruce Dickinson playing Flash of the Blade (which he wrote himself) on his solo tour! So now that would be my rarest tune.

I enjoy The X Factor but I don't think there's any songs on that album which top Hell on Earth for me (though Sign of the Cross is a very close contender, they're neck and neck).

I agree, if it's been a long time since they played a song that counts as rare also in my opinion

I remember seeing something about how "The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner" was only played once on the Somewhere in Time Tour in Belgrade on September 10, 1986 and that had me thinking if anyone on here has witnessed a song performed live that doesn't get played live all that often or...

I'm predicting: Senjutsu (for sure) Stratego (for sure) The Writing on The Wall (for sure) Days of Future Past (probably) The Time Machine (maybe) Darkest Hour (maybe) The Death of the Celts (maybe) Hell On Earth (probably) They may not all get played at the same time, but I think these ones...

I really like the acoustic/bass intro which again reminds me of something off The X Factor, I specifically had Fortunes of War in mind when hearing it. I think a bar or two could be removed from the intro before the song really gets going since it drags a bit but it's no big deal as the rest of...

This song is definitely one of the growers, it's still growing on me in fact and I find something new to enjoy every time. I like the quiet, ominous bass intro, it reminds me of the intros from the songs off of The X Factor which were just like this. One of my favorite parts is near the end when...

This song is great, one that had me hooked from the first listen. I can't get enough of Harris' acoustic/bass intros, very reminiscent of songs like The Clansman, but in a good way. It also gives Bruce a break from the higher end of singing by letting him use his middle range throughout which...

A bit of a grower for me, Bruce's voice sounds buried at the beginning but it gets better as it goes on. It's a nice ballad with a lovely solo from Adrian and probably the best demonstration of Bruce's more emotionally expressive side of singing from songs like Revelations, Out of the Shadows...

Now this is where things really get interesting for me! I love the carnivalesque melodies and the way Bruce's voice ascends during the verses, like he's climbing to the top of a mountain and as he gets there he delivers a spectacular, thundering chorus, my absolute favorite on the entire album...

Of the shorter songs on this album (the shortest in fact), this one is probably the best in my opinion. Bruce sounds energized here and delivers a great and memorable chorus that immediately sticks with you. The uptempo beat is a nice change of pace from the more downtrodden nature of the last...

This song was pretty good on the first listen, but after a few more listens I've really come to appreciate this one quite a bit. The intro creates a lovely atmosphere and leads to some cool riffs during the verses. The chorus is one that's easy to get into your head and the melody during the...

I really like this song a lot! It's got a great rhythm and some killer, almost Wild West sounding riffs. Definitely boosts the momentum of the album's flow after the previous two songs for me. The animated music video for this song was also a lot of fun!

Pretty decent tune, basically a standard Maiden single. Bruce sounds a bit buried in the mix, especially during the verses, but not bad overall. Will make a good song for the live shows I'm sure.
