Outstanding vocals, powerful riffs and varied sections make the song an enthralling journey.

10. Bruce does this song justice with his emotional vocals. The solo is one of my favorites.

 

[Revelations85]

10/10. The chorus is absolutely amazing.

 

[Viperlord]

10/10. Bruce is on fire here, pouring emotion into the song's evocative lyrics. Adrian's solo is superb as well.

One of my favorites. I love everything about this song. Considering that I think Invaders is an audio abortion, I see this as Maiden's first gem with Bruce. Simply great.

 

[22 The Avenue]

Wow my blood is pumping. Let's slow it down. It's okay though, this one is epic. More great vocals from Bruce. I absolutely love that howl of his. The vocals alone give this one a 10.

 

[Eddieson]

This one is good! Soulful and really impressing performance from Bruce here, aswell as a superb solo by Mr Adrian Smith. The song is well structured and takes you on a journey which for me is really important. Ends with one of Bruces best and highes full-voice notes and leaves the listener with shivers.

9/10

 

[TheSpectreWithin]

Brilliant performance from Bruce on this one; the emotion he puts into every line is spectacular. Instrumentally, it's full of beautiful melodies and a memorable solo from H. A true classic in every way.

10/10

 

[Pand]

Great vocals, a great chorus, a great H solo, a great ending. All adds up to a very strong...

9/10

 

[Liveone]

9/10.
Great song. Some fantastic soloing and great vocals.

 

[Bombusbombus]

This is such a great song. Very emotional and very good melodies topped with some good lyrics. I also like how it's kept compact, I could easily see this song passing 7 or 8 minutes if it was done today (not necessarily a bad thing, of course) and I think it adds a lot to the song that it doesn't. I think it's a little strange/sad that they haven't played it more often live, but then again, they try to keep the amount of slower songs down I guess, and they have quite a few others to choose from.

10/10. Bruce is on fire here, pouring emotion into the song's evocative lyrics. Adrian's solo is superb as well.

Nothing's changed here for me, still a 10/10. Fantastic song, I love it.
