Re: GAME: Best Iron Maiden album song that was NEVER played live - Round 13 - #8

:blink: are you deaf?

It should go over these Powerslave and BNW leftovers.

You are deaf to not hear His Holiness' brilliance on The Duellists, sir.   :)

And the rest of the song has a brilliant drive.

Yeah The Duelists was an awesome song, IMO one of the best of Powerslave
 
Re: GAME: Best Iron Maiden album song that was NEVER played live - Round 13 - #8

My top five of this game was The Duellists, Alexander the Great, Only the Good Die Young, Isle of Avalon and Starblind at the beginning. I hope the top five will turn out to be exactly same with mine.
 
Re: GAME: Best Iron Maiden album song that was NEVER played live - Round 13 - #8

Only the Good Die Young is one of the better tracks here. My top 5 never played songs:

5. Virus
4. Mother Russia
3. Starblind
1. Alexander the Great
1. Isle of Avalon

Only the Good Die Young is at 7. 6 is Back in the Village. Alexander the Great and Isle of Avalon are tied.

I'm going to listen to Duellists again, right now.
 
Re: GAME: Best Iron Maiden album song that was NEVER played live - Round 13 - #8

Do it. Not as good as Foro has it ranked, but the mid-section kills.


What’s left according to  my personal rankings:

Starblind (7)
Avalon (41)
Thin Line (48)
The Duellists (57)
Alexander (69)
The Nomad (85)
Only the Good Die Young (87)
Flash of the Blade (94)

— a 10, a nine, three eights and three sevens.
I’d like to see every single one live.

Damn, I must love this band when a song as good as ATG barely cracks my top 70  :blink:
 
Re: GAME: Best Iron Maiden album song that was NEVER played live - Round 13 - #8

Yes the mid section kills, and probably it should've been merged with parts from Big' Orra to create one stunning instrumental. But the song itself, vocal melodies, etc, is nothing special. The lyrical theme also isn't appealing to me.

Adrian Smith does (co-)backing vocals in the ooohooo chorus part. Can't proof it, but I feel 99% sure.

Finally, someones who loves Starblind as much as I do.
 
Re: GAME: Best Iron Maiden album song that was NEVER played live - Round 13 - #8

Starblind is 3rd in my rankings  :bigsmile:
 
Re: GAME: Best Iron Maiden album song that was NEVER played live - Round 13 - #8

Check the Starblind thread. It's not unanimous, but it's an elite track for many on this site.

I'm 100% sure he does.
 
Re: GAME: Best Iron Maiden album song that was NEVER played live - Round 13 - #8

Adrian and Steve, too, do the backing vocals. Flash Of The Blade and The Duellists are the top two songs that should've been played live. The Duellists is second only to ROTAM on my faves on the album.
 
Re: GAME: Best Iron Maiden album song that was NEVER played live - Round 13 - #8

I will get in on the love for The Duellists. Easily the best song of what's left. Come on you Irons!
My votes are:

Isle of Avalon, Thin Line, Alex
 
Re: GAME: Best Iron Maiden album song that was NEVER played live - Round 13 - #8

Flash of the duellist nomads blade
 
Re: GAME: Best Iron Maiden album song that was NEVER played live - Round 13 - #8

Re: GAME: Best Iron Maiden album song that was NEVER played live - Round 13 - #8
