Children of the dark had a revelation
 
Re: Iron Maiden Survivor: Fear of the Dark round 4 (Oct 10-12)

I'm afraid that Moonchild will shoot the seventh son, the bastard !  :mad:

:P
 
Re: Iron Maiden Survivor: Fear of the Dark round 4 (Oct 10-12)

Darn.  I did not want to vote for Seventh Son, I just wanted to save Aces High.  Now it looks like Aces High is safe and Seventh Son is going.  :(
And I'm shocked that Fear of the Dark has so many votes.  :o
 
Re: Iron Maiden Survivor: Fear of the Dark round 4 (Oct 10-12)

If Seventh Son of a Seventh Son get voted out now... ...then I have lost faith in this community  :(

(yes - I am overreacting on purpose)
 
Re: Iron Maiden Survivor: Fear of the Dark round 4 (Oct 10-12)

We all overreact here...  :bigsmile:

You mean, I shouldn't hunt down and punish those who vote for SSOASS? You're telling me that would be overreacting? Are you?

I'm really shocked that FotD is out ... I'd have called that a top 10 song.

2 am, Blood..., Fortunes of War

If there are any non-album Maiden songs you want in the last round before the Finals, post them here. But don't post "Virus" - it will be in the next round with VXI.

Make that SSOASS for me.  :)
 
Re: Iron Maiden Survivor: X Factor round 1 (Oct 12-14)

Noo! I mourn thee, Seventh Son of a Seventh Son, and thy gifts...

I guess it's fitting that we take on the darkest of albums in the darkest of times. I looked over the album and I can't fucking eliminate any one of them. So I'm sticking to my earlier picks, even though I'm sure several of my favourites will perish in this round. But do me a favour: listen to the temop-change that occurs right after the first chorus on Fortunes of War, where it goes from that doomy riff to that beautiful gallop.

Phantom of the Opera
Aces High
Moonchild

I'd say both. Plenty of songs I'd expect to see going before those.

Let us have one minute of silence for these two great songs before we proceed.

Now I must admit things get a little easier again. Although I like The X Factor, there are not so many songs on there that are candidates for my personal top 10 list. So off you go:

Man on the Edge
2 A.M.
The Unbeliever
 
Re: Iron Maiden Survivor: X Factor round 1 (Oct 12-14)

Just one note about SSOSS: The chorus is the most boring and the most uninspired thing of the entire album. The rest of the song is great, though.
 
Re: Iron Maiden Survivor: X Factor round 1 (Oct 12-14)

1. I disagree
2. The chorusses are about 6 or 7% (probably 7! ;) ) of the whole song
 
Re: Iron Maiden Survivor: X Factor round 1 (Oct 12-14)

Revelations, Lord Of The Flies and Man On The Edge.

When, and if, those two X Factor rockers go out, i'll have tough time.
 
Re: Iron Maiden Survivor: X Factor round 1 (Oct 12-14)

Look for the Truth, Judgment of Heaven, 2am

Total Eclipse
The Sheriff Of Huddersfield
Nodding Donkey Blues
More Tea Vicar
Pass The Jam
Reach Out
That Girl
 
Re: Iron Maiden Survivor: X Factor round 1 (Oct 12-14)

WHAT! SSOASS is gone? That song is much better than most of the XFactor songs and certainly the instrumental part is better than Moonchild.

Oh well. My goal is to save Aces High now.

Edge of Darkness, Fortunes of War & 2AM.

1. I think it's cool and fun.
2. It's short, so how you can say that baffles me.
3. Everything about this song is better than TETMD (for me at least. HA.)

Wow I really overreact with these polls.

We already did that, because it's not a non-album song anymore. We did it with TNOTB, and it has been eliminated.

Are you serious? Those two tracks are uninspired, directionless noise. Do you honestly think they're anywhere close to top 10 material? They're among the very worst of Maiden's non-album tracks.

I'm open to most songs, but these two are going too far. It's as bad as requesting one of the Listen With Nickos. I'm sorry, but I'd need to see more support from other people before those get in the game.

The rest of the songs you mentioned are fine, but those two just suck too much. If enough people disagree then I'll back down, but I'm not including every piece of crap recording just because Maiden made it.

No I really like these two, as you can see I didn't propose I Live My Way, or any other Blaze non-studio track. Nor Juanita.

Yet I forgot to include Burning Ambition what about it ??
