I definitely think Adrian is going to win this...

There are two truly magnificent solos in this group - TTLBLAH and TP. My vote goes to both of them.

Madness and SSOASS. This was one of the strongest rounds, in my opinion. :okok: I really hope you left the fabulous TTLBLAH solo for the last round. ;)

I love Paschendale solo but my only vote goes to the best Maiden solo ever - it needs to go through immediately. Powerslave it is!

Wasting Love and Rainmaker.

I am sorry I haven't replied before, but I found some time now so I will explain my vote for the Mercenary. Firstly, I am by no means Adrian's fanboy and I definitely don't consider all of his work golden. In fact, I am probably among the biggest Dave Murray fans on this forum. Secondly, I...

Mercenary and Paschendale. This might look like like an unpopular opinion, but for me the Mercenary solo might be the best solo Adrian has ever played with Maiden. I get goosebumps every single time I hear it and it is the primary reason I listen to the Mercenary quite often. Paschendale is...

Fantastic round this time - TCDR solo is the strongest points of that song and one of the best Adrian's solos ever. Also, Dave did a brilliant job with his 22AA solo so these two are getting my votes.

The Legacy and Wild Wind, with the Legacy being a little bit better. While FTGGOG solo is a great one, it has the same problem as TTLBLAH in the previous round - it's too short.

I am surprised to see ROTAM being so close to Strange World. To me, this Strange World solo is one of the best Iron Maiden solos and it got my only vote.

I feel that PS and TTLBLAH are much better than BTATS and ATSS and therefore they got my vote. However, out of those two better ones, I feel that PS should proceed to the next round - in my opinion it is one of the best Adrian solos and a possible contender for the title. Although Dave's solo...

What a GIANT this is! Definitely one of the best songs in the whole catalog, and by far the best song of the worst classic-era album. I love everything about this song's instrumentation: melodies, harmonies, the atmosphere and the solos. The bass line in this song is a killer, maybe one of the...

This one is not as annoying as Quest For Fire, but is pretty damn close. This is the second worst song on this album, after QFF. The highlight: I don't see any highlights here. 4/10

This is one of these songs that annoy me. The solos are really good, but enduring until they arrive is a pain. The highlight: Instrumental section starting with Adrian's solo at 2:24. 4/10

Recently I've been seeing a lot of appreciation for this song in this forum- some people even put it among Maiden's best songs. Unfortunately, I always fail to see what is so special about this one. It does have a fantastic intro by Dave (continuation of Strange World - Prodigal Son - 22 Acacia...

I love this song for being catchy and memorable. The whole band is on fire but Bruce really makes this song sound special. However, I feel that this song sounds a little bit like pop music, especially the dual guitar lead at the very beginning. Accompany this with the boring POM guitar sound...

I really like this definition by LooseCannon. This is exactly how I feel about the song. It's not groundbreaking, but it's not annoying either. The solos are really nice, and I prefer Adrian's in this song. The highlight: Adrian Smith solo at 4:06 7/10

I find this song very annoying. When it comes on my shuffle, I tend to skip it. How this song survived this far in Iron Maiden Survivor is beyond me. :eek: The highlight: I don't see any highlights in this song. 4/10

Revelations is a beautiful and melodic piece of music, quite a unique song in Iron Maiden catalog. It contains some of the best Iron Maiden harmonies and solos, not to mention fantastic Bruce sounding really inspired. However, this songs can get monotonous and predictable after some time. The...

I never really cared much about this song before I heard the live version at Ullevi, but now I can say I like it. Although I rate Nicko's drumming, Bruce's vocals and Dave's solo highly, this is definitely not one of the best Iron Maiden openers. One of the reasons for that is the bad guitar...
