Yep. I’m surprised that “Fire Child” has so many votes when it’s a pretty strong and unique track, IMO. But I think a lot of folks are just voting anti-B-side due to familiarity bias, too.
 
On the one hand, it’s a great chorus that could’ve been saved for a bigger song. On the other hand, it’s so much fun and an absolute banger just the way it is. This is one of those songs that on paper seems like a bad idea but the execution is surprisingly fantastic.

Fire is a nice song with a good riff (albeit filler-ish). Fire Child with some changes could have been an album song.

Votes:

Gypsy Road
Bring Your Daughter... To The Slaughter
Darkness Be My Friend
Hell No (I like the chorus melody, the solo, and the atmosphere, but it's similar to other songs that are better. My second least favorite from the album... and I like almost all songs)
Shoot All The Clowns
Now Way Out... Continued

All other songs are winners for me.
 
Oh damn, seems I missed one round. Couple of tracks I liked got cut, but the good ones are still there. That said:

Son Of A Gun
Born In '58
Gypsy Road
Bring Your Daughter... To The Slaughter
Cyclops
Hell No
Change Of Heart
Shoot All The Clowns
Sacred Cowboys

Shame that the No Way Outs got so many votes. Some of the most interesting and creative songs in his entire catalogue.
 
I'm a bit surprised that "Continued" has fewer votes than "To Be Continued". Not a big thing but this being a metal forum I figured the metal song would have a little more edge over the other.

Also "Gypsy Road" and "Daughter" currently are tied so there may be a stalemate there.

Quick reminder that 4 songs from every album will be promoted, so basically don't vote for both "Gypsy Road" and "Bring Your Daughter" lol.

One of the most interesting songs from that era imo. It could easily have been an album song (instead of Hell No, Fire or Clowns).

Votes:

Gypsy Road
Bring Your Daughter... To The Slaughter
Hell No
1000 Points Of Light (I like it without the bit in the middle, very effective song, but it can't be compared to the other songs, they have something extra special)
