Is your favorite vocal performance also your favorite instrumental performance?

[Travis The Dragon]

For the longest time, my most favorite song my Maiden was Aces High. However, I realized that the main reason I love this song so much is because of Bruce's vocal performance. Instrumentally, it's nothing super special. Actually, I can't decide what song I like the best instrumentally. Just about every song by them does its own, unique, amazing thing instrumentally. Especially the longer, more epic ones. It's just impossible for me to pick a favorite. This might chance when The Final Frontier comes out, but chances are slim on that one. If you want to wait and vote once it comes out, that's fine. I've also made it so you can change your vote just in case. Still, it would be interesting to hear how you currently feel.

Vocal: Revelations or Thin Line
Instrumental: Afraid to Shoot Strangers

Nope, not the same.

That's something almost impossible to answer. How many amazing vocal performances Paul or Bruce delivered on Maiden albums? There albums which are almost entirely made of highlight vocal and instrumental performances (even Blaze delivered well several of his tunes, but cannot compare to Paul and Bruce).

 

[Moonchild33]

Just pick your favourite, not the best.

I think the best vocal performance is WED (it crushes everything else actually), but it's not my favourite.

I think you're lost here, too, my lady. See how hard is it?

That's why I put the option "I can't decide on either".

Well, "your favorite" and "your best" are the same, aren't they?

 

[Moonchild33]

No. Best is like the technical best. It's objective while favourite is subjective. Just like greatest =/= best. You with me on this?

Oh, get it now  . Sorry for the misunderstanding.

 

[Moonchild33]

Glad I could clarify.

 

[Black Thunder]

OK, here's a praise to ya

Re: Is your favorite vocal performance also your favorite instrumental performan

Instrumental would probably be Seventh Son or Phantom, but vocal would either be Still Life, Alexander the Great, or Out of the Silent Planet.
