“The Great Architect of the universe never invented a substitute for results.” - Hobart McWhorter "Do. Or do not. There is no try." -Yoda Basically the same thing.

Mine too. And yes, I think that's right, though Imperiet also did an English version. The Ghost cover is pretty faithful to this English version, whereas the Swedish version sounds pretty different. English: Swedish:

In addition to the others mentioned, "Bible" (on Popestar/Meliora Deluxe Edition, originally done by Swedish artist Imperiet) is pretty damn good:

Memo to Steve Harris and the Iron Maiden camp generally: Yes yes yes yes yes! See? Proof of concept! If you really really think your songs need soft, atmospheric intros, and you obviously do, fine fine whatever, but this shows that it's OK if if the intro is only 15-20 seconds long! In fact...

This. Kiss the Goat was silliness, not an album track. Hunter's Moon was just OK, and evidently that will be on the new album. But Call Me Little Sunshine is, despite its title, heavier than the recent singles, which gives hope that there is truth to the rumors (don't ask me for cites, I...

New album IMPERA, out this March. New song:

Is your son aware that, 50+ years ago, a kid who said he "loathes, totally disrespects and hates" then-current pop music would have totally missed out on the Beatles?? I try to avoid categorically presuming that I will dislike anything that is new or current. A LOT of it is indeed loathsome...

My teen daughter likes Olivia Rodrigo, who is pretty popular evidently. I was quite surprised at how heavy and punky this song is.

Completely missed the boat on the initial round of ticket sales, but fortunately was able to book the second night in Anaheim. Who else is going? Meetup?

Don't have time right now to watch the entire 38-minute video -- what's the connection to Foro?

Anyone watched her movie?

I saw Janick in Vegas, but I just said hi quickly and moved on, didn't ask him for anything. He smiled politely and moved on too.

This thread has more legs than I thought it would. I think a good rule of thumb is, "Don't approach famous celebrities when they are enjoying private time, because they don't know you and don't want to meet you." It's pretty much the Golden Rule. If they want to interact with you, they will...

I feel like this is a parody. But the chorus is not bad at all.

The thing I find most interesting about @Forostar's post above is that Amazon has a "Heavy Metal Music" book chart. Who knew?

I agree, for the most part. But sometimes the fans really do know how to do it better. Case in point: Metallica. “And Justice for Jason” is a welcome alternative mix, which is arguably disrespectful of Lars but obviously shows much respect of Newstead. Also, the fan-made remaster of Death...

My copy arrived just in time for me to rip it and put it on my phone for a flight. I have listened to it once straight through. Some cool ideas, but not as many hooks as I had hoped. Death of the Celts should (deservedly) get much love on this forum. The intro almost reminded me of Pink...

Goddammit, if we’re going to be discussing live albums on a Maiden thread, then someone had better mention Strangers in the Night. There.

Postscript: one U.S. college would have by itself placed 7th(t) in the gold medal count, and 11th in the overall count. My alma mater!

Always has been…since 1776! https://tenor.com/8jbu.gif
