[QUOTE=sack-man]technically thats not the opening line of the song[/QUOTE]

"out of the silent planet.. out of the silent planet, we aaaare"

[QUOTE=Eddie-the-Trooper]"out of the silent planet.. out of the silent planet, we aaaare"[/QUOTE]
my point exactly

great song though

"When I was wandering in the desert I was searching for the truth, I heard a choir of angels calling out my name"

There's a darkening sky before meeee, There's no time to prepare...

Como Estais Amigo, for the death of those we dont know, shall we kneel and say a prayer, will they ever know we care...

really this topic of chosing best openin lines to songs is pointless cos nearly all maiden kicks a$$. basically any opening lines could be put in and some people would think they were the best. but it has kept the thread going. not exactly like it would die anyway.

There has been some dry patches...but we often pull through :thumb:

of course. this thread cant die cos its like eddie. however many times he dies / gets locked away etc he always comes back

I'm thinking we may need a new topic...can't think of one of the top of my head.

I'm gonna pre-order me the Vinyl 12" NOTB reissue in a few weeks :D

i think that single is just emi who wants to make more money on maiden... maiden sold their rights to the pre 98 songs to em in 98, so emi can do what they want with them...

bastards.


I really want 'Arry's shirt from Eddie's av. I'd wear it on stage wtih my band when we're playing "Bring your daughter"

I want that shirt too, it would be 'kin awesome to play something like Infinite Dreams with that on...*wanders off into daydream*

on the fave opening line thing...

Im on the run. I kill to eat!

I remeber it as plain as the day, although it happened in the back of the night!

O god of earth and alter, bow down and hear our cry...

When a person turns to wrong, is it a want to be belong?

"As the sun breaks above the ground, an old man stands on the heeeeeeel..." Sounds like "heel" to me, even though it's "hill."

"Into the abyss I'll fall, the eye of Horus..."

Ah, everyone's already said most of my favorites.

"Hand of fate is moving and his finger points to you"

I would love the "IRON WHO?!" T-shirt i have some pics of arry wearing.. i think it was on my other 'arry avatar..

^nice 2000th post

I'd sail across the ocean, I'd walked a hundred miles, if I could make it to the end, oh just to see you smile...

just thought of another:

Maybe one day I'll be an hones man, up 'til now, I've done the best I can...

are you just going through every track of every maiden album in order?

lol

OMG i just remembered the best openner:

"the demon in your mind will rape you in your bed at night"

Maybe...I was just thinking about Fear of the dark and then I realised them two high calibre songs had some good intros.

Love is a razor and I walk the line on that silver blade...

Only the good die young is probably one of the most underated songs ever...

lol guys im counting on u all to vote hallowed be thy name in the best R+M song

best R+M song = Bat Out Of Hell (Meat Loaf)

But that's not for here...

COMMON WE NEED HBTN TO WIN!
