As usual I find it really hard to but a score on the most played songs that you've heard a gazillion times over the last 30 something years. But it's a great song.
This would have been a great instrumental! Nice music all around, especially the simple but effective bass line during the chorus, it always gets stuck in my head...
But the singing and the lyrics really hurt this song. A lot. Still giving it a 7 because it makes me smile.
Every time I hear someone complain about newer maiden being repetitive, I think of this song...
Almost every time it comes on I think it's a lot better than I remembered, but before it's over I'm kinda tired of it. They could have made a great 4 minute song of it instead.
I've always liked this one and think it's underrated. I also like it better here than on live after death, the slower tempo is more fitting to my ears. I wish the snare drum thing Nico does instead of using cymbals during the verses (if you know what I mean) could have been higher in the mix...
I never really got this song when I was younger. But nowadays it's a bit of a favourite from this period, mayhaps because its not as overplayed as some of the other good songs that's been around for a long time.
I want more far fetched theories based on the glass window! Personally I think the ones in the main window are hints (not meaning they will be played for certain of course). Starting at top and going clock wise I think they point at: for the greater good of god, 2 minutes to midnight...
