The Clansman
Virus
Justice of the Peace

For all the shit ATG gets thrown at on this site, it’s disheartening that Como Estais gets even more.

Well, well, well. It looks like someone is seriously afflicted by Bruce/Adrian bias, with one of the VXI picks being a song which was on Iron Maiden's most popular live album and the other released as a single. How the tables have turned.
 
Caught Somewhere in Time vs Futureal
Wasted Years vs The Angel and the Gambler
Sea of Madness vs Lightning Strikes Twice
Heaven Can Wait vs The Clansman
Reach Out vs Virus
The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner vs When Two Worlds Collide
Stranger in a Strange Land vs The Educated Fool
Deja Vu vs Don't Look To The Eyes of a Stranger
That Girl vs Judgement Day
Juanita vs Justice of the Peace
Alexander the Great vs Como Estais Amigos

6-5 Virtual XI .

Black Wizard. You make this personal and I do not know if you have or have not understood what I have said. Or if you agree or disagree.

Nonetheless I have not done it your way. I looked at the voting results of a whole group. Nor made anyone ridiculous. It is the total that I talked about. I did that with as much respect as I could.

Your mockering tone is in sharp contrast with this.

If there is anything you agree or disagree with please quote it. And say why. That makes for easier discussion.

6-5 for Somewhere in Time

I had to think for a while about this. Both albums have more mediocre than truly great songs, and it seemed like the match-ups rarely had obvious choices :P
Toughest was probably choosing between CSIT and Futureal (both highlights) and TLOTLDR and Two Worlds Collide (both the worst songs on their respective albums).
 
People voting against Alex have apparently no idea that
ATG both codes for methionine and serves as an initiation site: the first ATG in an mRNA's coding region is where translation into protein begins.
