Iron Maiden Survivor 2013: Results Thread - Hallowed reclaims the throne!

[The Flash]

I feel this way about the survivors and peoples choices as a whole. This is why I don't bother arguing.

Arguing is the thing that keeps forums exciting, though.

 

[Black Wizard]

But Survivors are just games though.

 

[The Flash]

They're games that have their foundation in comparisons of songs therefore arguing. Since you're not playing this game all by yourself, I don't see your point.

 

[Black Wizard]

My point is that it's not worth arguing about. Nobody will change their vote because one forum member has written 1,000 words of over-analysis about a particular song. It's just arguing for the sake of arguing and nobody should feel the need to justify why they like or dislike a song.

 

[The Flash]

Well I didn't know expressing your liking or disliking for certain aspects of a certain thing was only done to persuade someone into thinking your way.

 

[Forostar]

It's worse. When people share thoughts on Maiden songs, something terrible occurs. From the very seats where the members sit, they infiltrate the minds of their "opponents" by long distance, infest these with the most outrageous ideas imaginable and make them slaves to their own wills, and to the power of death.

We better make a sign of the cross, because this evil forum that men do is full of sin.

For you guys maybe but it's not my thing. I'll give my '2 cents' about a song or album I like but that's it. Besides, it's more fun watching you guys argue anyway.

So we're arguing about arguing now..wonderful

 

[Black Wizard]

So we're arguing about arguing now

No we're not.

This reminds me of that time we all went floating on the Sea of Madness during the H Survivor...

 

[Moon Child]

H has that effect on people.

Is it also safe to say VXI is one of my favorite Maiden albums? TAATG and Stranger are stinkers, but every else i find top notch. I enjoy it a helluva lot more than No Prayer, FOTD, Killers, and AMOLAD.

I get the feeling I'm getting crucified soon.

 

[Saapanael]

It's a good album and Stranger is better than you think but Maiden has lots of better albums.

 

[Brigantium]

Hey, we all have our favourites, Eric. I love Dance of Death, but I'm aware plenty of people don't!

 

[Perun]

VXI dropped considerably for me lately, but I still think of it as a great album.

 

[Saapanael]

And what was the reason of that drop?

 

[Perun]

I don't know, some of the songs wore off a little for me, and other albums just rose in my ratings.

 

[Saapanael]

Nyes, these changes always happen.

 

[Brigantium]

Lord of the Flies, Angel and the Gambler, When Two Worlds Collide, Educated Fool, Don't Look to the Eyes of a Stranger

Same here. I absolutely loved it when I first heard it, but upon revisiting it last week I found that it wasn't quite as good as I remembered. The first three songs aren't too great but after that it's pretty strong (minus Don't Look To...).
