Round 7 Results:

Wasting Love - 1 vote - 5.6%
The Fugitive - 15 votes - 83.3%
Judas Be My Guide - 2 votes - 11.1%


Eliminated:
1.
2.

3.
4.

5.
6. The Fugitive
7. Fear Is the Key
8. From Here to Eternity
9. Childhood's End
10. Chains of Misery
11. The Apparition
12. Weekend Warrior


The Fugitive gets eliminated by a perhaps predictably huge margin. Only one more song from this album will be eliminated forever at this time.

Alright, we have our top five. Which is pretty good, in my opinion. Just one more to go to get to our surviving four. I think there are two songs that make sense to vote for, but between them I'm going to go for

Be Quick or Be Dead

Nah, Wasting Love.
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!

Wasting Love, in a desperate caress.
Zydar is my new hero.  I just laughed so hard I nearly shat.

Judas Be My Guide

The most overrated Maiden song ever. And before you go "it's not overrated, it's actually underrated", I speak from my personal experience. I think about 95% of so many Maiden fans I privately know either absolutely adore this song or really like it. I honestly never got it. What's so special or catchy about it?

The verses are the catchiest thing about the song... they're fast, spitted out in a wicked and disillusioned way, the chorus is good enough and the song is short and the point, never losing momentum.

It's considered underrated because it was never played live and was basically forgotten, but yeah, it could be a weird case where everyone agrees that it's underrated (by the band) to the point that it becomes universally loved.

Wouldn't quite say it's the most overrated Maiden song ever, but I like the other four better.
This first band is Soen very cool swingy jazz fusion kinda stuff.

It's fucking amazing, and quite original my Maiden's standards.  3 minutes of all out power metal.  And it's certainly not overrated.

Wasting Love.
Everyone else, except Wolfking is wrong.
