Flight of Icarus?
A lot of mentions of the sun, and Eddie has a flame thrower on the single cover.
Daedalus and Icarus were imprisoned on the island.

Not sure about the corn palace though.

You’re the winner! I’ll explain the clues this afternoon (on my mobile phone) but the palace bit comes from Wikipedia:

“Icarus's father Daedalus, a very talented Atheniancraftsman, built the Labyrinth for King Minos of Crete near his palace at Knossos to imprison the Minotaur, a half-man, half-bull monster born of his wife and the Cretan bull. Minos imprisoned Daedalus himself in the labyrinth because he gave Minos's daughter, Ariadne, a clew[2] (or ball of string) in order to help Theseus, the enemy of Minos, to survive the Labyrinth and defeat the Minotaur.”

You’re turn Mega! :cheers:
 
Clue explanations from last round. The song was Flight of Icarus, and the winner was Mega. Congratulations Mega.

Clue #1 [and 2, as my count was off later on] Are images of a palace and prison, inspired by part of the Icarus myth: "Icarus's father Daedalus, a very talented Athenian craftsman, built the Labyrinth for King Minos of Crete near his palace at Knossos to imprison the Minotaur, a half-man, half-bull monster born of his wife and the Cretan bull. Minos imprisoned Daedalus himself in the labyrinth because he gave Minos's daughter, Ariadne, a clew[2] (or ball of string) in order to help Theseus, the enemy of Minos, to survive the Labyrinth and defeat the Minotaur."

Clue #3 Listen and see


Was the song Flame Thrower, by Judas Priest. Eddie is using a flame thrower on the Flight of Icarus, single cover. Bruce uses two flame throws during the song on the most recent tour.

Clue #4 Sun and Sea

This is a reference to Icarus' wings being burned by the sun and him drowning in the sea.

Clue #5 Wear a pair of these on a sunny day:

Wear these to protect your eyes (and your wings) from the sun.
