In other threads I had put Blood Brothers.  When I first started listening to the album it was probably The Thin Line Between Love and Hate.  Now I cannot choose between Brave New World, The Nomad, and Ghost of the Navigator, which I enjoy much more now than when I first heard it.  Since The Nomad has the least votes, I'll vote for it.
 
bloody easy that one : Nomad

well, I don't like the lyrics, but the music is AWESOME, enough good for this vote

ps : hi there Genghis Khan !! it's been a while  B)
 
Tough choice, the album is even in quality. After I bought it I liked the first four songs more than the rest, but after some listens I also came to enjoy the rest of them (The Mercenary and The Fallen Angel just a little less than the others, still good songs).

The Wicker Man is a perfect opener, I think, but it's not a standout track on this album. For me, it is a choice between tracks 2, 4 and 6. Ghost of the navigator, Blood Brothers and Dream of Mirrors are all songs with great lyrics, great melodies and great solos. Damnit, I can't give a reasoned choice. I'll have to pick a random song out of these three. *Looking up a random even-numbered page in the book I'm reading* I'll go for the song which corresponds to the last digit in the page number.

Page 364? OK, then "Blood Brothers" gets my vote  :)

SHOW SOME RESPECT.

Perhaps your leet-speak is considered acceptable in other quarters. Or perhaps you thought that was funny. But - it ain't.

We here at Maidenfans do not lack a sense of humor. You can see it here every day. In fact, at least 90% of what I post is inane drivel nowadays. But when you're talking about Iron Maiden in a serious manner, use the correct song title please. Otherwise, it makes you look like a fool.


And, to present another point of view:

You were criticized by LooseCannon yesterday for not explaining your choices in the polls. You were criticized by me today for intentional misspellings of song titles. You may be starting to think that the people here are meanspirited. I assure you that is not the case. I do not hold your transgression against you. I look forward to your future posts, because you are at least trying to participate here in a meaningful way. Just be more careful in the future, please.

And Perun, you forgot:
Fry That Waffle
Fondling The Women
Flying To Warsaw
Fifteen Twisted Wizards

Nowadays?  Compared to back when we were posting fifteen Adrian Smith statements in every thread known to Mav?
 
No - compared to when I first joined this forum, a distant time when I typically posted well-crafted paragraphs about music.

By the way, the reason that I rarely post in the Adrian Smith Statements thread is that I regard that thread to be for the use of amateurs. LooseCannon, Perun and myself are professional Adrian Smith worshippers. We don't post our brilliance as often as we used to, but when we do it is of the highest quality.
 
You still make finely crafted paragraphs about the structure and evolution of music, my friend.  It's just that you don't need to prove yourself to us anymore!

Does Adrian Smith also drink five pints of ale for each chapter he writes about differential equations?
Have the other members of Iron Maiden read these textbooks, or are they written in a manner that only a genious like Adrian Smith (almost like Adrian Smith, of course) can fully comprehend it?
