Re: Bruce Dickinson Survivor FINAL BATTLE: Aquarius vs Thel (Oct 31 - Nov 2)

I don't know what to vote, both songs kick major ass. In fact, i consider both to be among top 5 Maiden songs of the '90s  :D

In any case, i'm glad that Darkside and Thel are in final battle. Right now, i'm going to vote for Thel to keep 3:3 tie.
 
Re: Bruce Dickinson Survivor FINAL BATTLE: Aquarius vs Thel (Oct 31 - Nov 2)

Weird development: Darkside is doing better, and that's the first time ever.
Thel always had less votes, every round. Some people must have changed their minds.  :D
Still, more than 30 hours to go, so who knows what will happen.

(edit: when I posted this, it was 4 Thel, 3 Darkside)
 
Re: Bruce Dickinson Survivor FINAL BATTLE: Aquarius vs Thel (Oct 31 - Nov 2)

After listening to both songs, my opinion goes in favour of Darkside of Aquarius - I'm voting against Thel.
 
Re: Bruce Dickinson Survivor FINAL BATTLE: Aquarius vs Thel (Oct 31 - Nov 2)

I've listened to both songs now, and I like Book of Thel ALOT better. It may be stupid to join in at the finale though :p
 
Re: Bruce Dickinson Survivor FINAL BATTLE: Aquarius vs Thel (Oct 31 - Nov 2)

So hard, but after a re-listen, my vote goes to Thel.

Aquarius FTW!

I can't complain about the winner. I would have liked to see "The Tower" and "Silver Wings" higher. And a couple that didn't make the top 10 as well: "Road To Hell" and "Back From The Edge".

But when I look at the results by album, those rankings look pretty reasonable to me. Not perfect, but not bad.

Thanks for playing everyone!
 
You're welcome, it was a pleasure!

I think that Bruce's latest album deserves at least 1 song in the current top-10.
Personal favourites that didn't make it:

Back from the Edge
Tyranny of Souls
Man of Sorrows
The Breeding House
No Way Out...To Be Continued
Soul Intruders


I never expected that Omega would do so well, but this poll made me realize it's an awesome track with (especially) great vocals.

Take a look at your future, take a look at your burning skies!

I just realized I should have made this statement more strongly... my tendency towards dramatic understatement doesn't work as well on the internet.

I'm actually very happy about the winner. "Book Of Thel" was my choice for #1 from the start, and I'm quite pleased that it won. :bigsmile:
 
It was also my choice, pretty much up to the final round, when I listened to both the songs from Scream For Me Brazil, Darkside was a bit better. But I don't mind it at all. I feel that this is a fair representation of Bruce's finest work.
 
I am a little disappointed that something off of Tyranny of Souls didn't make it into the top 10. I personally think Navigate the Seas of the Sun stood a fighting chance...and Jerusalem should have ranked higher. But at any rate it was fun while it lasted :).
 
Ah, here I see so many good reviews of songs, but I haven't listened to half of them. Does anybody know how can I download Bruce's songs?
