Fave Bruce Dickinson solo song?

[9mm]

Thought I'd come up with a little survey.

So, what's your favourite Bruce Dickinson solo song? I'd have to say that my favourites are currently Return of the King and Tears of the Dragon.

 

[Sydo]

I think it's harder for me to choose this, than my favourite Maiden track.

I'd have to say either Freak or King In Crimson.

But that would leave out songs like
Inside The Machine
Road To Hell
Killing Floor
Cyclops
Innerspace


The Magician is cool too.

 

[Hanso]

Tears Of A Dragon !!

 

[Mark]

Solar Confinement! Or anything else off Skunkworks

 

[Southy]

if its of SKUNKWORKS or Chemical wedding its gotta be good dont it...sorry that i cant help with the poll but those albums are soooo good

 

[spawn]

Tears of the dragon
Chemical Wedding
Broken
Cyclops
Accident of birth
Book of thel
Road to hell
Return of the king
Born in 58

Probably more but I cant remember them all now

 

[Bucko]

Mine would be :
Chemical Wedding.
The Tower.
Born in '58.
Tattoed Millonaire.
Silver Wings.

 

[Seventh Son]

Wickerman (original version)
Return Of The King
Ghost Of Cain
Tears Of The Dragon

 

[Sydo]

Whoops, I forgot that one!

 

[Spruce Goose]

pick one out of these:

The Tower
Jeruselum
Starchildren
Dark side of Aquarias
Tears of the Dragon
Book of Thel
Cyclops

 

[ironcross]

Ah there are too many!

Tears of the Dragon
The Magician
Sacred Cowboys
Book of Thel
Jerusalem
The Chemical Wedding

I could go on

 

[Joe Salami]

The Tower or Book Of Thel.

 

[phlogiston]

Tears of the Dragon
Darkness be my friend
Silver Wings
God's Not Comming Back
The Chemical Wedding

 

[PIV Bassman]

This is tough, but I'll give it a go.....

Tears of the Dragon
King In Crimson
Solar Confinement
Meltdown
Back From The Edge
Machine Men
Chemical Wedding
Taking The Queen
Omega
Cyclops

Ah all of his stuff is good, I could list half of the tracks from every album really!

A quick question: does anyone know whether Meltdown is about personal friction between Bruce and Steve Harris? Sounds like it could be, if not does anyone know who it is about?

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Mine would have to be:

King In Crimson
Road To Hell (the "Scream For Me Brazil" version is brilliant!)

Ranking in a close third would be....every other song hes recorded! I love everything he's done.

 

[Los4words]

Shit all of the above.. umm.. lately been listening to a lot of Alive in Studio A so probably 1000 Points of Light.

I LOVE Bruce's solo stuff, his voice is sssssoooo wicked.

Mark - I agree that Skunkworks is underrated, it's very different and works when you sometimes aren't in a heavy mood.

 

[Wrathchild]

I'd pick either Man of Sorrows or the title track from Chemical Wedding, the standout songs from two damn fine albums!

They're also the only two Bruce solo efforts I own at the moment, so I'm not the most qualified person to ask. What's the song from Balls To Picasso (I think!) with the lyrics "where are you going, what are you doing?" I remember enjoying that one when I heard it on t' radio many moons ago...

Cyclops. Top song. Not as good as Tears of the Dragon though, which is worth the price of admission alone.

You know whats best though? The live version of tears of a dragon! Go brazil!
