I have absolute respect for people's taste and have said so many times on this forum, I must admit though I laughed quite a bit to Quest for Fire being touted as better than Where Eagles Dare, Revelations an Still Life. Keep it up ;)
I prefer Steve as a song writer too. That's not what I'm picking up on. What I am saying is, Revelations is a brilliant song. I have no idea what Bruce said after he wrote it, nor do I care. The song is a cracker and if it wasn't they wouldn't have played it live as many times as they have.

If it's embarrassing lyrics on Piece of Mind you wanna discuss how about Harris thinking dinosaurs and men co-existed in Quest For Fire. Nothing and I mean nothing Bruce has ever written is as hilarious as that.
I find it interesting that you'd describe Revelations as "musically poor". It's many peoples favourite Maiden song and my favourite on Piece of Mind. Just saying...
The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. Never read it, had no interest in the Swedish film and had less interest in this remake. Friend of mine got tickets to the press screening which was great for two reasons: 1. Everyone had to leave their mobile phones outside. 2. No dullards talking during the...

He struggled a little towards the end of the World Slavery Tour, who wouldn't? But he sounds magnificent for long periods of that tour too. Look at RIR 1985, it's amazing.
Thanks for all the apologies there Seventh Son. How can anyone be wrong in a thread like this? It's clearly a matter of preference so right or wrong is null and void. So your apologies are appreciated and accepted ;) Some people just prefer his voice these days. Deal with it.
Just to be clear, the fact that I have no love for any other metal band is irrelevant and the fact that others think there are many good metal bands around is equally irrelevant. The question is, who will carry the torch? Can anyone answer that? Is anyone capable of it? From what I've seen and...
The reason Maiden are arguably more popular now than ever before is because there simply is nobody like them. There are bands who try to emulate them with varying degrees of success but I can't stand any of them personally and when Maiden do hang it up it will leave what I fear will be an...
