Maybe it's because I have no attachment to the man (and not the most positive view of him, in fact), but Churchill's Speech has always been too goofy for me. The text itself makes for a great speech. Inspiring words in a time of turmoil. But Churchill's voice and delivery? The man sounds bored...
Aaaalright, gonna scribble down some notes:
Step 1: Bait people into attacking Virtual XI
Step 2: Repeat Step 1 in true Virtual XI fashion
Step 3: Get all the haters RLonger'd
Step 4: ???
Step 5: Profit
Huh? What? Nothing to see here, move along folks! Aces Low, am I right? :D
Remember Tomorrow, Prodigal Son, Revelations, Powerslave and Infinite Dreams aren't epics. Mother Russia arguably isn't either, but it gets a pass because NPFTD doesn't have anything else that would fit.
That said, easy:
Seventh Son Of A Motherfucking Seventh Son!
I have a similar melody on a couple of my songs as well actually lol
Starting on the high octave of the root and going down the pentatonic always sounds awesome.
The chorus for Lightning Strikes Twice is phenomenal! Super catchy melody but unfortunately so difficult for Blaze's range that they had to copy/paste a good take.
Didn't someone on the forum explain at some point that MoM was written in E minor but they had to transpose it down a step to D...
There's room for nuance in my opinion. I've never been the biggest fan of Rime and I'd lie if the thought of "I'd rather hear something else" didn't cross my mind multiple times during the show while I was listening to it.
People can have different tastes. I vastly prefer the 90s and reunion to...
To be fair, if they played The Angel And The Gambler for 1 hour, with a good dose of Invaders, Quest For Fire, The Apparition and Weekend Warrior, I'm sure most people complaining about this (obviously very exaggerated and unrealistic setlist to prove a point) would find "enjoy the moment" to...
DLTTEOAS is my all-time favorite Maiden song actually. I genuinely love every single song on that album, including TAATG, but I won't tell you that it's the best Maiden album. It's not. But it is my favorite. Obviously the most important part and the obvious explanation is nostalgia. I grew up...
More the general silhouette than actually having other figures on there. Senjutsu had a similar (but distinct) shape as Killers, without the latter's victim for example.
Since we're in full polling mode and I haven't created a thread yet, might as well get it over with and get y'all to choose between the plague and cholera (as we'd say in Germany) :D
NPFTD is commonly seen as a disappointment after SSOASS with barely any high points.
FOTD has far higher highs...
