Clue 2: Another well-known band, containing several strong personalities, have a song with the same name as the Maiden song in question. Unlike the Maiden song, though, their song never made it onto an official release by the band. Still, the song is well-known due to a twitchy, yet unquestionably legendary performance.


incorrect guesses: Back in the Village, Ghost of the Navigator, For the Greater Good of God

Sorry about the late reply, been off-line a few days...


Only the two clues to explain this time, here they are:

What did I see/Can I believe (NOTB ) My eyes they see but I can't believe (SOM)
Fly on your wings/Like an eagle (FOI) Fly so high on wings above (SOM)
How can she sail with no wind in her sails (ROTAM) - There ain't no wind to fill your sails (SOM)


Clue 2: Another well-known band, containing several strong personalities, have a song with the same name as the Maiden song in question. Unlike the Maiden song, though, their song never made it onto an official release by the band. Still, the song is well-known due to a twitchy, yet unquestionably legendary performance.

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young performed Neil Young's tune "Sea of Madness" at the Woodstock festival i 1969, their second gig together as a band. The song didn't make it onto 1970s "Deja Vú" (another Maiden link right there :) ) album, but it is on the Woodstock film soundtrack album (although the performance heard on the album isn't actually from the Woodstock gig, but from a gig at Fillmore east in September 1969).
