[MrKnickerbocker]

Die with Your Still Land
Fillerslave

 

[Diesel 11]

Where Eagles Dare
Revelations
Flight of Icarus
To Tame a Land

And nothing from Powerslave.

 

[LooseCannon]

We need to work harder to get rid of To Tame a Land.

 

[KidInTheDark666]

No.

 

[LooseCannon]

No.

Incorrect. See, To Tame a Land is not worthy.

That song was a grower for me. Competition within Piece of Mind is definitely very tough. The only thing I know for sure is that WED and Trooper deserve to go through this stage.

It’s unfortunate that two of Maiden’s best instrumentals ever recorded (To Tame a Land and Alex) have some of the worst vocal lines and lyrics ever recorded.

Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Yeah, there's some interesting instrumental work in TTAL

 

[KidInTheDark666]

Man, I haven't even mentioned Powerslave yet and people already disagree with me.

 

[LooseCannon]

Have you considered not being wrong?

Definitely.

''Alexander The Great'' and worst vocal lines?

 

[SinisterMinisterX]

''Alexander The Great'' and worst vocal lines?

It has a superb chorus melody, but the verses are mostly screaming a high E.

And allready 11 votes for The Duellists.
That instrumental section is among their very best!

Edit: @KidInTheDark666 ROTAM really?

I don't feel like giving my yearly ROTAM explanation now, but it's one of my least favorites in the poll now, despite being my 4th favorite song on Powerslave.

Fair enough. Soon I´ll have to vote classics like Aces High (I prefer 4 other songs from Powerslave)to keep personal favourites in as well.

Correct. It's a jumble of history-laden lyrics set exactly.to.the.melody.cause.that.is.how.the.melody.goes. because of Steve. Bruce sings it as well as he can, but as with the worst of Steve's lyrical blunders it is an absolute mess of words.

Wait until you hear this amateur named MrKnickerbocker when *he* sings it
