Not a bad song, but compared to Iron Maiden standards it's pretty underwhelming. I like the solo, but the lyrics...it reminds me of Stryper or something
The only reason songs like this cop flak from fans is that at their peak they were even better. If this record were released by any other band it would probably be hailed as their magnum opus, but Iron Maiden just set the bar too high for themselves. Up the Irons!!!!

Tu dices regueton-yo te golpeo en la cara 92% de los adolecentes se han convertido en reguetoneros, Hip Hop y Pop. Tu y yo formamos parte del 8% que todavia escucha musica real,copia y pega este mensaje en tu canal NO DEJES QUE EL ESPIRITU DEL ROCK y el metal MUERA
No matter what people say.....I find this song absolutely great. The intro, the lyrics, Bruce's singing, the solo.......Absolutely great, MAiden at their best.
i will admit.. it's good,, but not maiden great, the proof is they don't use it on their own tours anymore.. but those songs had to get out of there system,, they wouldn't be as good as they are now if they hadn't got the bad stuff out of the way.. now they know what works and which direction to head.. it's like a family with 15 kids.. that 13th kid will be president,, but not untill the first 12 are out of the way.
i love it maiden some times wastes a looot of aswome songs like this one and the whole somewhere in time just to name some but there are a lot more hope they realize and start playng them again
One of my favorite albums, and one of my favorite songs. This and "Die with your boots on" were my power source after the earthquake on Chile. I was one of "the lucky ones" that had "a hand on your shoulder from the Lord above".
Just hanging up and looking forward for better. Greetings from Chile.
Thrash Metal fans say that NPFTD album is hard rock for pussyes. I said: Fuck off you stupid morons! This is not Slayer, this is FUCKIN' IRON MAIDEN! AND THEY ROCKS!
hey i love this album i dont have a album whhat i hate i love all their songs no matetr what the singer its iron maiden and im a true fan for liking all the songs that made FAGS!!
Three problems with your theory: 1. This album is recorded very differently that FOTD, it would not fit sound wise. 2. These two albums have very different styles both musically and vocal wise. 3. The lyrical content and musical themes are very different to each other.
The point is that Maiden makes Albums and not hit singles. You should be able to identify the album by just hearing one song, this song definitely comes from NPFTD.
Been a Maiden for 15 years, and think this whole album is brilliant. Also, I've never understood why people come and watch a video and then use their comments to slag it off. I don't like Take That, so I don't watch their videos or listen to their songs. Would be a complete waste of time to watch something you don't like.
yes man because you are not jealous of big bands like other people are...what's the point of slagging off a Take That video when you know which band is good and which one is not...They feel like they're doing something to Maiden by saying bad things about them...Maybe that makes their favorite band better in their eyes...
I was 14 when i listened this album, actually i haven't changed my opinions. I'm still a great fan of this band, which means that i'm able to do some criticism, not only to idolatrize them.
A decent song. What's so incredible about this track? In my opinion nothing. It has a similar bridge from 'the evil that men do' and the same refrain of 'the clairvoyant'! Is the time to live...is the time to die..After listening an album like Seventh Son it's very hard to describe this as a masterpiece...please...
You're kinda right. Even though No Prayer for the Dying is an overall good album, the last GREAT album by Maiden was in 1988. You cannot compare any album after SSOTSS to any of the albums released between 1980-1988.
@System777 I still think that Brave New World is one or the best album, following Number of the beast piece of mind then a matter of life and death..my opinion. I love their newer albums. Dance of Death is good for the most part with about 3-4 great songs, but the other are just good.
my god! people saying this album is uneven, and that holy smoke is a unospired song??? Jeeeeeez, whats wrong with you people! In my opinion this was the last really good iron maiden album. Fear of the Dark was great too, but I think this is the one who closed the great era of Iron Maiden. Cheers up ThrashHard08!
yes,its your opinion because you are not a maiden fan.But almost all Albums afterwards were much better than this.And Brave new world is a absolutely masterpiece.This is my opinion.
Ok, everyone has the right to its own opinion. I just dont dig totally the Iron Maiden with 7-6 minutes long songs. That doesnt means I dont think is good. But hey, a guy who learned to play bass from and because of Iron Maiden, who by the age of 16 knew roughly all Maidens lyrics, that went to all their concerts in the country I lived (Brazil) back then - even the concert with Blaze Bailey ;-) -, is not a Maiden fan? Wrong! You can not like the full discography of a band but still be a fan.
BE THE DEVIL OR BE IT HIM!! man this song is fucking badass... Underrated as hell... this album is fucking awesome fuck all those assholes who give it shitty ratings
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Yeah, but the album is very uneaven, with some excelent songs like this one, but also very uninspired ones like "Holy smoke" and "Bring your daughter to the slaughter"
La letra de la cancion es excelente y muy profunda. Es el gran enigma acerca del bien y mal. Todo lo malo en el mundo sera producto del Diablo o es el mismo mal en nosotros?
Well i totally agree..when i was younger and started to listen all the albums i was like "wtf they were thinking after all those no1 albums..they created THIS?"But after few YEARS i just realised its a masterpiece of music...so...UP THE FUCKIN IRONS!
El problema es que para que te guste éste album has de escucharlo bastante! sólo un fan reconoce la calidad real de éste album! (actualmente es uno de mis favoritos de la Doncella!)
2 canciones se salvaron? supongo que te refieres a Tail Gunner y a Holy Smoke! pero las demás están en un gran nivel, incluso "Bring your Daughter to the Slaughter" a la que le dieron tanto garrote!
the words on the IRON MAIDEN songs always make you reflecting about the life , the history and the human feelings , for this l cant live without to listen their beautiful music , FOREVER IRON FUCKING MAIDEN !!!!!!!!!
One of my favourites song of Maiden, just perfect.
