6. Flight of Icarus
7. Die With Your Boots On
8. Sun and Steel
9. Quest for Fire


After another fiercely contested round, To Tame a Land is the last one gone here.

____________

I'm sad to see To Tame a Land go, but it had to in order to save the best two, since y'all adamantly refuse to go after The Trooper. Well, with my two favorites safe, I'm coming after The Trooper now. Those two deserve to be in the finals, the other simply doesn't.

The Trooper

Where Eagles Dare

Somewhat bummed about To Tame a Land.  It's not a top song for me or anything, but thought it was top 3 on the album for sure.

Ok, now I can finally say the song I'm rooting for: Revelations.

Back when I was a kid and starting to hear foreign and heavy music, after my first steps with hard rock (Bon Jovi, Guns n' Roses) Iron Maiden were my first exposure to heavy metal, and to this day they remain (regardless of how much I actually listen to them) my favorite band - Revelations started it all, it was the song that made me fall in love with Bruce Dickinson's voice, Iron Maiden and heavy metal in general. It started an avalanche effect that made me the metalhad I am still today. Also, I think it's actually a very nice and great song, an eclectic piece from Bruce and that is original both then and now.

So, pretty please with sugar on top, would you mind to save the song that is the most important one in the musical formation of a big Iron Maiden fan? I still have to vote in the Number of the Beast poll so in case someone wants to save Children or 666 I can help him voting against the other song  :D

Where Eagles Dare..

I changed my (piece of) mind after actually listen that song and Revelations.. I think the latter is a bit more fun to listen, while the other one becomes a little boring at the end..



In other news, I'm seeing them tonight!.. First time in my life.. Can't be more hyped about it!!  :metal

I agree with you on WED.  It drags a bit.  The live version (shortened) is a lot better. 

also,hope the gig is/was fucking aaaawesome

Bump back up to page 1 since it somehow got buried in rating polls (and by "somehow" I mean "via hef commenting in every single rating poll").

Still a little over 23 hours left here. Just started the final round of TNOTB, and the final round here will begin tomorrow, assuming that this doesn't end up tied. So, if people need to listen to Powerslave and Somewhere In Time, the next couple of days is when you should be doing that, as I expect those survivors will start in 48 and 72 hours, respectively.

...and I was happy with that, since things would have stayed the way they're now and that would be very fine with me :biggrin:
