GMD Song Survivor: Iron Maiden - Piece of Mind - Round 1

[Vilden]

Atleast no one is so out of their mind that they vote for Revelations.

 

[no country for old wainds]

are you excluding baroques joke votes? not that it matters this round i guess

 

[Vegard Pompey]

Well I have no way of knowing if a vote is truly a joke vote, so I'll just take the poll results at face value. All I can do is politely ask Baroque and anyone else to refrain from voting insincerely in subsequent rounds.

 

[no country for old wainds]

he did pretty explicitly state it was a joke vote lol

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Quest for Fire is much better song than Sun and Steel. It sucks that the former has more votes already.

Sun & Steel has a godly singalong chorus though. It was my first favorite Iron Maiden song so I can't vote against it too early.

 

[no country for old wainds]

i'm wondering if we'll have to vote one or two songs next round. two would make things rather harder for me.

 

[Vegard Pompey]

I'll do two per round until we're down to 5 songs.

 

[Talos of Atmora]

You should do Crimson next.

 

[EspaDa]

Or Scum .

 

[H.P. Lovecraft]

The opening silence before the disc is read, and the silence after it's finished.

 

[H.P. Lovecraft]

"What are the TWO WORST songs on Iron Maiden - Piece of Mind?"
1) the first half of the album
2) the second half of the album

 

[CiG]

The opening silence before the disc is read, and the silence after it's finished.

You don't like Scum by Napalm Death!?

 

[no country for old wainds]

he was responding to the OP

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Anyone that says The Trooper is the worst song on the album should be banned.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

For some reason despite its classic status, it was the very last song to hook me on the album, and never really transcended into an all-time great. I remember when I was 13 or so showing off my autistic knowledge of the Iron Maiden discography's track order including track durations when possible, I had this weird moment where I was like "Hmm, I swear this album had 9 tracks instead of 8 like the rest of the early Bruce albums, but I can't remember that 9th, oh well", and The Trooper was the one I couldn't remember.

 

[Sirjack]

Trying to pick a 'bad' or lesser song on Piece of Mind is futile. It's not a case of a 'worst' song rather, a personal inkling for such a tune that grabs one more so than another. It's a dumb thread. The only filler on the album is 'Nicko'

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Can't deny Nicko had a great start with Where Eagles Dare and I don't think there are any songs on this album that are worse for his presence, though I'd agree that Clive wins overall.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

My vote is gonna go for either Still Life or Revelations. Going to listen to a few of the songs i usually skip and be back.

And once again i laugh at anyone who thinks this album is anywhere near as good as Show No Mercy or Kill Em All.

 

[Sirjack]

Ha no l mean some versions have the silly vocal thing after The Trooper listed as 'Nicko' - that's the only filler.

 

[Krow]

Anyone that says The Trooper is the worst song on the album should be banned.

I thought it was weird people were voting for The Trooper myself. I've been belting that song out like a retard since the first time I ever heard it.
