Iron Maiden is pretty bad, I'll admit... ok, you got me with Drifter. Let's say worst album closer with Bruce...
 
Re: GAME: Best Iron Maiden album song that was NEVER played live - Round 2

I think that it's better than Paul and Blaze era closers and better than Only The Good Die Young. Other Bruce era closers are better. So Mother Russia is the 10th best closer IMO.

Mother Russia worse than Fear of the Dark? Mwah, I find Mother Russia more interesting these days.
Mother Russia worse than The Thin Line..? Nah.
Mother Russia worse than The Legacy? Nope.
Mother Russia worse than Journeyman? Hell no.
Mother Russia worse than WTWWB? Hmm, also not.

Mother Russia I find captivating from start to finish, a very majestic song with some brilliant melodies and atmosphere. Even though some of the fast midpiece rhythm patterns sound like the title track from SSOASS, the song feels more original and features stronger riffs and bass playing than the later ones.

The other songs are good but suffer from a few dragging or/and repetitive parts.

So for me Mother Russia is the 4th, 5th or 6th best closer, maybe even 3rd. Can't choose at this moment.

Foro* :

Mother Russia is pretty awesome and very much above-average, but I don't think it beats The Legacy and Thin Line. If anything, it's more or less equal..
But that's just, like, my opinion, man.
 
Re: GAME: Best Iron Maiden album song that was NEVER played live - Round 2

I loved the Legacy, great ending to AMoLaD
 
Re: GAME: Best Iron Maiden album song that was NEVER played live - Round 2

The ending I find the worst part of that song. Fantastic solo, and beginning, though.

1. Yes.
2. Yes.
3. I agree, I forgot about The Legacy.
4. Very close, but Journeyman has one of the best Maiden choruses, so it wins.
5. Very close, but lately I like WTWWB better.

Fear is the Key is gone? Please, NP, tell me it's just all lies and lies and lies and lies and lies and lies.

This is getting really tough. So many not-so-great songs to choose.
