Guess The Iron Maiden Song!

Fortunes Of War
That's the one! :applause:

Clue 1: Forgive me this nasty first clue because it was a reference to the lyrics of the Fish song Fortunes Of War.
Rosebuds scattered across the lawn like the squares at Waterloo
With bayonets of thorns repelling small children in search of lost tennis balls
Imaginary cannonballs that were fired at the legs of galloping cavalry

Clue 2: Fish released his album Suits in 1994, a year before The X Factor was released. Both Fortunes Of War songs have the 4th place on their album.
Clue 3:
I hear voices in my head
I'm scarred for life

Both songs from the Awake album.
Clue 4:
Carry on
You're not sure what's real anymore
The vivid scenes and all the recurring nightmares
In the night the visions seem so real

Clue 5: The actor Kenneth Branagh as Hercule Poirot looking for clues to find the song. :lol:He was one of the main actors in the BBC serie Fortunes Of War.

Clue 6: Fortunes of War is the name given to a series of six novels by Olivia Manning that describe the experiences of a young married couple early in World War II.
