Where Eagles Dare

Good song, but there's not enough variety in the verses, and the instrumental section is slightly longer than it should have been in my opinion.

With 8 votes in, already 5 out of 6 songs have at least 1 vote (I guess nobody is ready to get rid of The Trooper). This will be an interesting next few rounds, I predict.

It's a testimony to the greatness of this album, for sure.

This is the time for people to gang up against certain songs to make sure other songs will go on.

That is, if people like me has a song on this album they absolutely adore and they're willing to do anything to get it through.

I'm not saying mine just yet, hehe!

I use my sig to pimp some bands from Italy! Check out Elvenking (Power / Folk metal), Folkstone (Rock / Medieval metal), Arcana Opera (Gothic/Noir/Heavy metal) and the beautiful voice of Elisa!

Where Eagles Dare is probably my second favorite on the album, actually. Revelations is the best, and then WED and TTAL.

Icarus again.  I've been thrashing Where Eagles Dare lately.

You fucking watch this if you think WED should be voted out this early https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZSMkaoR95A

That's a cracking performance of a song that absolutely rocks. And it opens an astonishing six-song run that few bands are capable of matching. Where Eagles Dare and 22 Acacia Avenue are probably the most underrated 80s Maiden songs in my opinion (Sea of Madness is up there too). I'll be sad if we lose both in the span of two days.

Touché  :tup

It is actually pretty cool that people's personal favourites of a band can vary so much. With a band like DT I can understand it, but I thought with IM the choices would be a bit more predictable. Obviously not!!  :biggrin:

Shows the strength of their work.  But really, once this round hit, it's all quality and no stand out easy choices.

You're right - every vote off is still a quality song.
I think I have my choice for the next round ok, but after that it is very tricky for me..  :)

True, but only two will win... and one of them obviously is gonna be The Trooper.

Best thing is already decide now, thinking more in terms of "Which two songs do I want to win?", and bid goodbye already now to the others. That's how I get by with even voting any of these wonderful songs, I've already accepted that only one of them will join The Trooper, hehe!
