It's hard for me to go back to the studio version of the Six Degrees title track after I've grown so accustomed to the Score live version with the Octavarium orchestra. That version has so much more energy in it. I feel the Overture in particular was always meant to be performed by an orchestra...
The first matchup is horribly, horribly painful. That's my favourite DT song right there. So...uhhhh, this is a case where I think I might have to vote against my own nomination.
...however, I'm also acknowledging the fact that it's a very well-liked DT song generally so I think it will win...
I think Man on the Edge is easily as strong as some of their Bruce hits and could see success as a live song again. I also think a song like Blood on the World's Hands could work live again.

Is this the second Iron Maiden survivor in a row where these two songs are pitted against each other in the final battle...? I don't remember the previous top 10s too well beyond Hallowed winning each and every time.
About that, though.
Yeah.
Let's make Hallowed lose for once.
And off we go...!
I really need to sit down with these songs more because I only gave each song a cursory listen, although I'll still vote now since the round will be over by the time I get the chance to have multiple listens of them. Out of all the songs here, I had only heard one of them...
