I've been listening to Iron Maiden since I got up at 9:00am today, till right now,
I'm listening to Invaders :cool:

Invaders is such a great song.
But 'Prisoner' oh so much better. :)

ive been listening to 7th son and live at donnigton 92 - i think its fantastic especially afraid to shoot strangers

[QUOTE=firecrackercheese]Invaders is such a great song.
But 'Prisoner' oh so much better. :)[/QUOTE]
My three favourite songs off that album:
#1:Hallowed Be Thy Name
#2:The Prisoner
#3:Invaders
It's an amazing album, allthough I prefer their debut :eek:

I've always had a thing for Children of the ****ed.

i think gangland is the best song off that album

Its a descent song but most people will say it is the worst or second worst to we-all-know-what.

To be honest,
I can't really say what I like most.
But obviously Run To The Hills would be up there no doubt.

ill tell u hwat i hate polls asking the best maiden song is or any band for that matter. they r all pointless cos its all based on opinion same with best of the beast and edward the great that was prob based on record sales or votes by fans or something they shoulda just put steve an all in a room and said pick your fave songs or something then it owulda been more interesting than having the same songs on 2 best ofs

[QUOTE=Stevie]Yay! What do you guys think of Live at Donnington 92?[/QUOTE]

Theres bout 3 good songs on it. It starts off with a bang with "Be quick or be Dead" but the guitar playing just seems a wee bit sloppy and theres just not the same atmosphere a others such as Rio but don't get me started on that again.

does anyone have the re-released version of number of the beast? also if you have is there anything different?

i have the vynal but havnt listen to it


sorry for bringing up an oldish topic

I hate this, I can only get on here once a week, and then I'm miles behind on the topics :-(

I didn't know they had re-released Number Of The Beast? When did they do it?

couple of weeks ago i think

[QUOTE=ashman]Another conversion :lol:

Has anyone heard the BLAZE (The band) version of SOTC? It's pretty good, I like it. It's got a different feel to it, not as dark; more Guitar soloey :lol:[/QUOTE]

YES! My fav song, was it I who sent that to you?
the solos in the end are :amaze:
the harmonies sound so much better on that version!

Sotc?

I've only heard C.O.B cover a Maiden song, I didn't like it, personally.

How good is Powerslave? I aint got it and it seems like a lot of people like it

I like it more than NOTB,
It has Two Minutes To Midnight, Rhyme Of The Ancient Mariner and Aces High, reason enough to get it.
But, if you go on [URL]www.ironmaiden.com[/URL] you can download a minute snippet of every Maiden track.
It's an amazing album alright :)

[QUOTE=scream_for_me_brazil]How good is Powerslave? I aint got it and it seems like a lot of people like it[/QUOTE]

its pretty good, not really their best but still worth getting :thumb:

Hmmm ok I'm gonna have to get it.

Yeah,
download those three tracks (Two Minutes To Midnight, Rhyme Of The Ancient Mariner and Aces High) they're deffinitley highlights :thumb: :)

* Rime!

[QUOTE=Stevie]* Rime![/QUOTE]
:(
Sorry man,
:lol:

Don't forget the title track.

Yeah I suppose that is pretty good in it's own right.
But it just doesn't stand up to those three.
I got my Powerslave from music zone for £6.99, but in H.M.V (right next to it) it was £16.99.
Surely one of the worst marketing blunders ever?
:confused:

Lol. HMV has loads of great cds, ie. Symphony X : The Oddesy, but they are 17 quid or somt.

[QUOTE=88_Fingers_Joe]Lol. HMV has loads of great cds, ie. Symphony X : The Oddesy, but they are 17 quid or somt.[/QUOTE]

music zone has maiden, sabbath, ozzy and metallica cds for about £5

but they dont have as big range as hmv :upset:


EDIT: sorry didnt read previous post

insiders knowledge :P
i used to work in HMV (up till last month) and they did have some maiden CD's for £5.99 and others for near £18, the reason...there's no good one, but they have 4 sales in a year each, and sometimes they don't sell so you'll see the same CD for 3 different prices all next to eachother...though i bought all mine from the sales using my discount, spent £20 on 5 CD's! (No Prayer, Fear, 7th Son, DoD and Somewhere in Time!)
:D

oh and SOTC is SIGN OF THE CROSS!

Woah, really?
That's hillarious!
:lol:

Yeah you sent it to me, but I got the 'As live as it gets' Album on tuesday...

So...who would win in a fight?? Blaze, Paul or Bruce (No fencing swords allowed :thumb: )

Paul,
he was a punk, punks=agressiveness
:lol:

Hmmm, I would say Blaze.

God,
I love [I]"Running Free"[/I] so much..

[QUOTE=i_am_Jimmy_Page]God,
I love [I]"Running Free"[/I] so much..[/QUOTE]

It is a good song, but it branded Maiden as 'long haired punks', which isn't good :upset:

Can anyone tell me what's so good about "Iron Maiden"? Ive heard 3 good songs with them.

What songs?

Buy Number of the Beast, Powerslave, Piece of Mind, Somwhere in Time, Self-title, or Killers and you will find out.

[QUOTE=Wolferinn]Can anyone tell me what's so good about "Iron Maiden"? Ive heard 3 good songs with them.[/QUOTE]
Best basslines, well, ever. Killer guitar melodies. A vocalist with incredible range and talent. And... a drummer that fits the music. Go listen to The Trooper and you'll hear basically all these elements.

[QUOTE=Eddie-the-Trooper]yes...

who knows.. they might even check in at the Rainbow and play there... ;)[/QUOTE]


it's been closed for years now :(

another slice of metal history gone.

madien played at the pub near my school in the 70's, but that's closed down now too :upset:

Oh, and Powerslave (song) > 2 minutes

any of you guys out there going to see them in paris??? i am n i can't wait
