I still say it's a great song. It melded the best of Punk and early British Metal. I believe that the only people that don't like this track, were pissy fag boys in 1978 or not even born at all. No one cares what your opinion is 30 years after the fact. If you weren't there, your opinion means jack shit.
Paul Dianno's voice is iconic. The guitars are impeccable. The drums are ear bashingly fun. Iron Maiden makes my life better just by giving me moments of pure happiness.
CHARLOTTE THE HARLOT TURNS THIS 40 YEAR OLD INTO A HEAD BANGING TEENAGER!
I dont think this is heavy metal at all, to me its more like prog rock or rock n roll. I love Iron Maiden, but I dont know why they did turn into heavy metal, the 70's material was also very good.
@Elquelosabetodo95 It was heavy for the time it came out. It got heavier with Thrash bands, but that was way later. In my opinion, Maiden and Motorhead were the best bands that came out of that period.
@TheKapitan98 It would be completely different, as they have completely different singing styles. Also, most of the songs that Bruce sings on, are a lot more demanding, I love the live versions of Bruce singing the oldest songs, Its bloody amazing wen he sings them too.
that girl,charlotte the harlot lived on 22 acacia avenue,she had the hooks in you, , somewhere in time,asked if she could play with madness,never wondered about the evil that men do, she did the whole gangland,after there was no prayer for the dying,she died,but lives in from here to eternity
no joke, today I'm sitting in Latin class behind a girl named Charlotte and I start singing this. SOOO glad she didn't hear me.

There was a time when you left me standing there,
Picking up pieces of love off the floor.
Well Charlotte you left me alone in there,
To make your ends as a bloody whore.
Well Charlotte you told me you love me true,
Picking up pieces of love yesterday.
Well Charlotte you're draws are off color too
'Cause you're making love all day.
