What are the least memorable Maiden songs?

[KidInTheDark666]

The last two albums kind of washed over me. I don't know if I don't like Iron Maiden any more but theyre the only two where I probably couldn't name you every song. I really disliked final frontier for some reason.

Like I know No prayer and Virtual aren't great but I remember it all when I Listen

Do you like any songs on Final Frontier and The Book of Souls?

Of course.

Isle of Avalon and The Talisman are good.

If Eternity should Fail, Book of Souls are good.

There's others I like, and I can tolerate all the songs, they're fine but nothing else grabs me that much.

I agree, great song and certainly not too hard to do live.

Bruce fucked it up loads of times on boots I have from that tour. He got caught out easily by the fact that one time the prechorus does not lead into the chorus.

most of AMOLAD.

Now wait a moment...

Alexander the Great is evidently quite forgettable to some. Well some of the guitar parts anyway....

You Sir deserve a medal for this comment!

And I can only remember that cringy opening line from Quest For Fire, I don't remember anything else about it.

Lucky guy with selective memory... Unfortunately I do

I would Like to forget songs like From Here To Eternity, Wasting Love, Fear Is The Key, Hooks In You, Quest For Fire, TAATG, DLTTEOAS, WTWC or Age Of Innocence. Unfortunately I have a sharp memory

"SIASL" is a very good representative of the Somewhere in Time album: though very enjoyable on record, most songs do not translate that well (and sound a bit plodding) in a live context, except for "Heaven Can Wait" and "Wasted Years". I find it particularly striking when listening to the bootleg named The Greediness: the beginning of "SIASL" (after "Children of the Damned") spells beer/pee break.

While I agree on CSIT and SIASL, the full throtle beast that is Sea Of Madness sounds even better live IMO. Ah... another song that never sounded great live is Alexander The Great (rubbing salt in open wounds mode )

I get into “Maiden moods” from time to time and listen to all their albums multiple times through. I Iove ‘em all. That said, I tend to forget the middle chunks of Killers, Fear, and No Prayer a good bit. I enjoy them but they tend to blend into my ears. Fear is the Key and Chains of Misery blend, all the songs on Killers that aren’t Killers or Wrathchild.

Without mentioning the blaze albums, for me I don't particularly like Eldorado or Speed Of Light.

The X Factor is a great album.

You're right... what are songs like Strange World, Innocent Exile, Prodigal Son and Losfer Words compared with hymns such as From Here To Eternity , Wasting Love and When Two Worlds Collide?...

Could we maybe try communicating a little more with words, a little less with emojis and exclamation marks?
