To tame the land where eagles dare, you need a beast. Its number is six hundred and sixty six. And it starts getting impossible to choose - all these 12 songs areclassics.

I agree 100%! There are no songs left that I do not like
I tried to be as harsh as I could, these three had the biggest ''flaws'' to them...
Where Eagles Dare (repetetive riffing)
The Trooper (annoying ''ohhhh'' parts)
To Tame a Land (dull)

Wow... This is going to be tough, but okay.
Phantom - I hate its guts, been voting for it since the beginning and will continue to do so.
Number of the Beast - the weakest song here, overrated, we've eliminated better songs thus far.
Where Eagles Dare - I was conflicted between this one and To Tame A Land, they're both equally silly lyric-wise, but TTAL is much better instrumentally, I love the Asturias theme at the end, so, bye-bye Eagles.

Yesterday I played Piece of Mind and I still find Revelations the least entertaining song of all.
Ta da da. Ta da da. (going on forever).
As soon as I heard the opening tones of Die With Your Boots On I thought "Right, all songs before this one are not as good as this. Piece of Mind seriously has a strong middle fase. If I have to pick the 4 best songs I'd go for (in album order):
Die With Your Boots On, The Trooper, Still Life
(the middle of the album
)
To Tame a Land

Err, it looks like those two songs don’t even survive Powerslave. Children of the Damned has a better chance to meet Somewhere in Time songs, just as it happened on the “Somewhere on Tour.”
I am really curious how the SIT songs will manage in this slaughter. I don't feel much like voting for any of them, apart from perhaps one or two.

Re: Iron Maiden Survivor, series 4: Powerslave round 4 (Sep 8-10)
I notice that there are only 27 votes even though there are 11 voters - so in addition to the two guys above me, who have voted for less than 3, there is someone who has not voted at all - or more people have voted for less than 3. Which brings me to the point; Isn't the idea of the survivor game to force people to eventually vote against songs they actually love? I think the rules should be that you have to vote for 3 songs (or none at all) - this thread is about the agony of choice , isn't it?

We can't enforce a rule like that. The forum software doesn't allow it. It only limits the maximum number of votes; it can't force you to use all your votes.
I wouldn't be in favor of a rule like that anyway. Let people vote how they want. It's only an internet poll; let's have some fun with it instead of putting in more rules.

I don't want to make things personal, but on at least 4 occasions I have noticed that siebo666 does not vote, when he posts. The problem is, we can't follow it all the time so it's risky to add his votes to the result.
I am afraid we have to accept < 3 votes, and who knows you'll also want to do it in the (near) future as well.
@gulranek: Uhh, didn't you have to go on holiday or something?
