Tournament of Maiden Solos: the Top 10 video!

Wasted Years

 

[Saapanael]

Wasted Years is an Adrian classic.

 

[JudasMyGuide]

Wasted. The way it connects with the last chorus is just so simple... and so beautiful.

 

[Lampwick 43]

Wasted Years, no contest.

It looks like just about everybody is on the same page for once.

 

[Deus_Adrian]

Wow. Tough. Both are amazing.

Wasted Years is a better song.

 

[mckindog]

I actually quite like that Boots solo, but goddamn Wasted Years is just too good.

My thoughts exactly

Result of round 1, 14th battle: Adrian Smith's Die With Your Boots On solo (020) is eliminated. 039 advances to the 3rd round.

Round 2: 15th battle:

Both are perfect.

But Prodigal Son is more perfect than Aces High.

 

[Brigantium]

Prodigal.

007.

 

[Srogyy]

Prodigal Son - much better. I almost forgot how good that solo is.

 

[rgba]

Son

 

[MrKnickerbocker]

PS is a thing of beauty, but it still feels a little hesitant.

Aces High, on the other hand, is full of confidence and flash. It's a sharp gunshot of a guitar solo that perfectly suits the song.

 

[bearfan]

You really cannot go wrong with either of these, but I voted for AH

 

[Edu_Smith]

Adrian Aces or Adrian Prodigal...

Poutz...hummm

Prodigal Son

 

[Forostar]

Adrian's hesitation (or just: the pauses he makes) is one of the charms of the solo.

 

[MrKnickerbocker]

I agree, it's quite charming, just a bit meandering. Still a great solo, but I think his run in AH gets the point across better.

 

[mckindog]

Nice matchup.
Two aspects of Mr Smith, showcased very nicely.
Going with Prodigal cause it suits my mood at the moment.
Another day might have gone another way.

 

[JudasMyGuide]

Aces for me.

 

[Lampwick 43]

Prodigal Son.

I can see this solo going quite far in this game.
