Re: "Perfect" Iron Maiden album by Track Position (Track #8)
There is a lot of awesome here. In addition to the two giants (Rime and Paschendale) there are several other favourite tracks of mine.
Alexander the Great is simply fantastic, music-wise. Had the lyrics not been of the "secondary school history essay" type, it might have won. Only The Good Die Young is also a great track, underrated by many, but it is a bit short.
Another underrated song is Blaze's last song with Maiden, Como Estais Amigos. A "different" Maiden war song, talking of reconciliation years later, rather than battle action (like Aces High), or justifying to oneself why one goes there (Afraid to shoot strangers). Shall we keep at bay the beast?
