Iron Maiden and emo aren't that different you know.....

Shame, why would you say something like that? Even after the influence of alcohol :chug: and drugs. :smoke: Even though you are joking that is pretty blasphemous. :angry:

But one thing I will never forgive Steve Harris for letting Funeral for a Friend support them on the DoD tour.

dont joke about that. please.

ok, what song titled could Iron Maiden do to continue with some of their classics like (THE trooper, THE duelist, THE fugitive, THE assassin, THE clansman).

whats another "possible Iron Maiden song title" starting with "the" and ending with a title. :thumb:

The Messiah
The Soldier
The Fighter
The Pilot
The Doctor
The Priest
The Astrologer
The Scientist
The Philosopher

(Bte, sorry if I offended you with that....and yeah, Funeral for a Friend was WRONG. Not that they're necessarily bad, but...come on...thats like Nile supporting N*Sync)

The Alcoholic Guy who Dresses Like Ronald McDonald for Children's Birthday Parties

^ hahah that made me laugh, good one.

Now I have a question for everyone:

What do you think is Iron Maiden's most underrated song/s?

I think there are two. The first is Purgatory off the Killers album. This is a good fun rocker with a cathcy chorus and the pre-chorus is also cool. I think it goes underated because most people think Killers is probably the worst album of Maiden's golden years and its far up in the track list on Killers.

The second I think is Still Life off the Piece of Mind album. The album alone I think is quite underrated. Still Life is right after one of Maiden's best and most recognizable tracks: The Trooper. It's got a great verse and a really catchy chorus; almost as much as Flight of Icarus. It also contains an awesome solo (like most Maiden songs though).

You don't have to write all that i did but im just wondering.

I think The Prisoner is underrated. Great pre-chorus, and the bass is excellent as always.

Hey guys, sorry I've not been posting here in a while, problems with computer and such.

I bought NOTB recently, and have borrowed 7th son from a freind. I was completely blown away when I heard the whole thing all the way through, because there really isn't a song that is less than amazing on it. Has to overtake BNW as my favourite Maiden album, although not by much.

On a side note, to Frail (or any other Maiden fans who listen to Rush), have you noticed that the guitar in the chorus of The Prisoner sounds identical to a bit of Spirit of Radio?

^^

i will be sure to give that a listen lol.


as for underated songs ill list some:

Drifter
Prodgial Son
Total Eclipse
Sun and Steel
Flash of the Blade
Caught somewhere time
The Lonliness of the long distance runner
The Assassin
Mother Russia
Wasting Love
The Fallen Angel
Montsegur

^^I didn't really like Sun and Steel that much. I don't think I've ever had the chorus in my head, unlike practicaly every other Maiden song I own.
I can't say what songs are underrated, because I don't know much about their songs reputations (if that makes any sense).
I will say that I love Children of the ****ed, and I've never really seen that refer to much on these boards or anywhere else.

^^^

really? Sun and Steel's chorus is one of my favourites, but i wont hold it against you :thumb: , and yes Children of the ****ed is a genious track...yet i listed "total eclipse" are the unsung great from TNOTB album :), but that one hits home just as much!

Murders in the Rue Mourge is a very underated one

The Appartion is really underrated. I think its awesome!

^^It must be, I've never heard of it...what album's it on?

(bumpage is fun)

[QUOTE=FaceInTheSky]Murders in the Rue Mourge is a very underated one[/QUOTE]

are you kidding me? Thats one of the most hailed tracks from the Killers albums, a huge hit for the band. i woultnt call that an unknown favoutie.

^ I have to agree with that.

I also agree with FrailandBedazzled1979, list about underrated songs.

I some blaze songs are quite under-rated, like futureal, como estais amigos, don't look to the eyes of a stranger .etc.

Ash

Montségur is definitely NOT underrated. But eh.

Sea of Madness rules.

I would have to say the live version of Fear of the Dark from Rock in Rio is definetly one of their most underrated songs. Listen to it. It's better than the studio version.

"anybody by any chance remember the Number of the beast album?"
"YEEEEEEAH"
"Well, this song is not from that album! Enjoy!"

Starts playing revelations....

Revelations = my fav. maiden song
Reach out = my favorite B side

[QUOTE=HondoII]Montségur is definitely NOT underrated. But eh.

Sea of Madness! Thats one of my favorite songs. I guess it's underated no one ever talks about it.

Which Iron Maiden song is probably their heaviest? I haven't heard very many, but if it's not on the first two albums, it would probably be Powerslave. Heavy and Egyptian is a good combination.

The Wicker Man
Montsegur
Fallen Angel
Mercenary

They are some of Maiden's heavier tracks

i missed out on their concert when they came in august with motorhead, which kinda sucked. but their album "Powerslave", is it a good album? I havent really heard much from it
